Galaxy Note stuck at boot screen after OTA update

Hi, My note is stuck at boot screen after the official OTA update. I tried googling but most seems to pertain to Rooted/flashed phones.
Mine is a new note which has not been rooted at all in the past. I downloaded to OTA update and it has been stuck at the bootscreen for the past few hours.
Any help appreciated!

1. Try pulling out the battery for a few minutes.
2. Boot into recovery mode and wipe cache and dalvik cache.

should i also wipe the data/factory reset in recovery mode?

No. God forbid, then you might end up with a superbrick

Thanks for your help

Unable to enter recovery mode
Hey I got similar problem, my phone gets stuck at Samsung logo screen. I am unable to enter recovery mode. When it shows android update screen after pressing recovery mode combination, my phone restarts.

Keep them pressed for 3 seconds more then you end up to recovery. They need to be pressed while booting the device from reboot or off state, then you will end up in recovery or download mode.

Yesterday, I received an OTA on my galaxy note and now it is also stuck in boot screen with the breathing samsung logo.
I tried to go into recovery mode using the 3 button combo, but it wouldnt enter into recovery mode. I get the green android logo with wire mesh and the phone reboots.
Can someone help me to boot my phone?

Got mine backup and running after OTA update gave me Samsung logo freeze issue
So after the 7MB OTA stability patch mine too was stuck on samsung logo.
Kies wouldn't recover it and putting into download mode or recovery mode didn't help. I too tried to go into recovery mode using the 3 button combo, but it wouldnt enter into recovery mode. I get the green android logo with wire mesh and the phone reboots but i didn't at the time try for 3 more seconds.
I then used ODIN and applied a downloaded Aussie Gingerbread ROM as i couldn't find Aussie ICS ROM. With my plan to do a Kies/wifi update to ICS. This caused acore and other processes to crash every few seconds. I then did a factory reset which got it stable and then tried to update to ICS but the phone said there were no updates available. Then I applied the international ICS using ODIN so i'm back were i was two days ago before the stupid 7MB patch.
Unfortunately, I don't think i can get anymore OTA updates but after the 7MB one i don't think i want to.
Long story short i think you should be able to go into recovery mode do a factory reset and it should be OK.

ODIN voids warranty?
I have the same issue after receiving 7MB OTA update. I am unable to go into recovery mode(same green robot and wire mesh etc...), so i am going to use ODIN method... but will flashing stock ROM using ODIN void my warranty?? I am not rooted.
Thanks.

Thanks.... but this is my aunt's phone, so rooting is not an option. I use HTC Hero... and we have RUU which we run on the PC and everything is restored to stock.... it removes root if you have it and also runs without root. Is there anything similar for samsung devices?
Also, now I am considering going for warranty repair... didnt want to do that at first as i have a really bad experience with HTC service centers... now lets see what samsung does..!!

Same problem here please find a fix!!

You don't need root to flash stock with PC Odin, and flashing any stock does not affect warranty. To use Odin you need phone in download mode (vol down, home and power until reboot into download)

Just flash it using the same os version you already have installed in my case I had the same problem with this little ota update and I've just flash it with the same ics version that was installed and my phone was back with all my stuff and rooted... once you finish doing the re flash you'll get an on screen message saying "Fail to update try using samsung kies on your computer" or something like that...

Thanks... but I went for warranty repair .. and I got it back in 2 hours..... unfortunately I lost all my data .. even on external partition. Now it is on ICS and still I have a notification for available update ... which I wont do.
Anyone has had success with that update?

Help

I'm having major issues with my exhibit. I had it rooted, and when I downloaded something, it rebooted my phone. Now its stuck on the samsung logo and wont go any farther. I've downloaed Odin and Kies. I've tried to do a reset on it but it says the system files are not found. I don't know what else to do. The phone is not under warranty anymore. Any one have any ideas on how I can get it restored?

Do you have a custom recovery?

Ok here is an update. I've installed the latest version of odin, and the correct image for my phone. Odin detects the phone but now it just says "setup connection". How long should all this take?

[Q] Stuck in Samsung Logo (GT-i9295)

Hi,
I decided to try to root my phone (i9295) as I was having issues with wifi not activating. I am on 4.4.2.
I am now stuck and cannot get past the Samsung Logo screen. I have attempted to flash various files through Odin however this appears to have no effect.
I can boot into download or recovery mode.
Is there any way I can reload the original firmware (or any firmware at this rate) to get access to my phone again?
Can anyone please help?
Thanks

If u can boot into download mod. Then just flash the I9295XXUCNE5 official firmware. https://mega.co.nz/#!CcdGVArY!IZeJ2ilX-EacFvzYeWqAVmcFbzedfFXiFvQEvuJm4AI

Note 4 Issue-Still not fixed

Hey guys hopefully someone can help me out. I have a friend that has a note 4 that seems to have a mind of its own. It gets to the note 4 screen hangs and then reboots. Ive tried the following:
Kies upgrade and initialization
Odin stock lollipop
odin twrp 2.6.1 recovery
The note takes all of those with no errors. When the note reboots it hangs and then reboots over and over. I tried to get to recovery but hangs just like it does when its booting and restarts. Also unable to get to safe mode. But does get to download mode no problem. Any Ideas?

If you have twrp, have you wiped
System
Data
Dalvik
Cache
Internal?

Go into twrp recovery and do a factory reset then reboot the phone..

Thanks guys for the replies I've tried both and the phone still reboots. Any other ideas?

Which model was it? The newer T3 or the original T? If the newer T3, make sure you are flashing dog1 firmware.

Its the N910t t mobile variant not sure if its the new one or not. How do I find out?

What stock firmware did you flash?
Sent from my SM-N910T3 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2

stock lollipop 5.01 cod6

Were you upgrading from kit Kat? Where did you get the firmware from? I'm not sure why you are rebooting...trying to figure it out.
Maybe try upgrading TWRP to a more recent version.

Edit still not fixed. I took it to a repair shot and they changed out the power button and that still didn't fix the problem.
I use to think it was a hardware issue but now I think its a software issue. When I got the phone it had knox 0x1(3) so I think someone messed up the software on the phone and its restarting because its unstable.
Here is what I tried to do so far and nothing has changed still reboots either half way during boot or once booted all the way just restarts by itself.
Odin stock cod6 firmware (fails)
Kies firmware recovery
Odin twrp 2.8.7 with root and pop rocks rom.
twrp recovery wipe and factory reset
Nothing works

Are you sure it isn't the t3 variant? Normal note 4 n910t roms will not work on it.

Try a different battery i had the same problem with and s3 couple years ago phone will power on and die during boot i though it was because it was rood and had a custom recovery I had a back up from TWRP I did a restor and didn't fix any so i flash the latest official firmware from samsung and still had the problem then I decided to switch the battery from an other s3 and the then it got fix and the other s3 star doing the shot off act is worth trying
Also if the phone was running fine before what was is on so you can tell what model you have and how long you friend had it the SM-N910T came with 4.4.4 and so far can only be update to 5.0.1 officially and a SM-N910T3 is a much more recent variant and it came out the box with 5.1.1 and the box should show SM-N910T3 so if he had it with 4.4.4 or 5.0.1 before any root or custom rom is a SM-N910T and if you didnt flash the bootloader for lollipop and still on 4.4.4 you may get problem like those too

ensure you are on Either T3 or T there are two models of this phone now. ...

Some things I noticed wasn't asked.
Have you tried a new sim card?
Is there a MicroSD Card in it? Take it out and see what happens?
Those may seem unrelated but I have had those symptoms with other devices because each of those.

Also when using ODIN, try different usb ports if a flash fails the first time. I've been in your position before and such a seemingly simple thing made all the difference.

LG G4 H811 (T-Mobile) bricked

Good morning,
I recently decided to attempt to root my LG G4 and install a custom ROM. I was able to unlock the bootloader and boot TWRP, but at this point I received an error when I tried to install the Cyanogenmod ROM that I had downloaded.
At this point, my phone is a brick. If I turn it on normally, the LG screen comes up and stays. There is a message in the upper lefthand corner saying that the bootloader is unlocked.
I am able to boot into download mode. I have tried using LGUP and the LG Flash Tool 2014 to flash the original kdz but I get connection errors with both approaches.
Any ideas what my next course of action should be?
Thanks in advance!

Mine is doing the same thing and I am getting errors on 9% on both versions of tools version 2014 and 2016. No one has an idea why? I have done this unit before what out any problems!

Use lg up and the newest kdz (20o). Manually enter download mode and then start lg up. Also you might have to download and install lg drivers onto your PC.

This is what solved the issue for me. I simply had the wrong KDZ. The 20o is the one I needed.

My lg g4 got the fault in the system where it stuck in the bootloader and all I did was us lg up and kdz 10n and the phone didn't boot but I was able to return it and get a phone because when you do that your deleted everything off it and making it to where it was when it came out of the box

One small thing you might want to try first. Open LGUP with your phone connected in download mode. Choose the kdz file you want to use, then CLOSE LGUP (leaving the phone connected). Then reopen LGUP and the kdz file should still be selected. Then click Start.

Have you try booting into download and open LG Bridge, software update and follow the steps it tells you?

Mine randomly restarted and entered a boot loop on the way into work today. I couldn't enter recovery. I just let it loop. When I checked it when I got to work about 30 minutes later, the screen was dark and I figured it had died. It was booted to my lock screen. The weird part is that all of my "recent apps" were still open. I'd taken the battery out several times. It now reboots without issue. Perhaps I slipped into an alternate universe where my phone didn't die on the way to work. #mandellaeffect
