[Q] stuck in bootloop

while trying to get a recovery to work with no avail, i wiped cache and did a factory reset and now i am in a boot loop. wish i could remove the freaking battery. just got my phone today and the first thing i did was updated to sense 4.3. I then unlocked the bootloader successfully. I started having problems with flashing a recovery even though the bootloader said unlocked and tampered. twrp would not boot, but i got cwm to boot. the problem on cwm was i didnt have access to all the folders like the downloads folder that had the su zip. I did have avast already installed while i was trying to root(going to activate antitheft once rooted) i thought avast might be the problem so i uninstalled went back into recovery wiped cache and did a factory reset hoping cwm would access the folder i need nope. so i was calling it a night and booted up the phone and now it is STUCK. It was easier rooting my evo 3d with brick method. PLEASE HELP ASAP

Did the instructions I sent end up working?

adb wont work on either computer i did some more research and it looks like i have to get the stock RUU
none of the recoveries will mount to anything but thank you for your help hopefully the RUU works

There is no RUU for 4.3 yet.

TWRP 2.7.1.0

Not my project but thought this might help people find it: TWRP 2.7.1.0 for KK Bootloaders by dhacker29
http://androidhosting.org/Devs/Dhacker29/msm8960/
Edit: To avoid confusion I changed the link to the one RikRong posted that will give you the M only version. File name: TWRP2710-RAZR_M-KITKAT.img.
Edit2: Looks like the links are down so here is a link to a post that @rahimali provided in this thread. Its for TWRP 2.8 and 2.7.1.0.

anyone else have a problem with this not recognizing the touch commands and just basically acting like its frozen? Nothing works I left it for awhile and came back to it and tried to open the slide lock and it doesn't do anything. The battery is fully charged so what I guess I have to do is wait for the thing to die so I can get out of recovery.
UPDATE: Still not working for me but I was able to shut it down by pressing the Power + Volumes Up and Down Keys

Yes I downloaded the correct one from RikRong and it was the one that says:
TWRP2710-RAZR_M-KITKAT.img
I redownloaded it and tried again but still no avail. Touch just refuses to work with this for me. So I'll just have to stick to 2630

That's strange, I haven't had that issue either. Maybe a bad DL? Try downloading and flashing again.

maybe a different means of flashing it too...

no luck with twrp so switched back to cwm. i also flashed the same way using fastboot

well I'll give the flashy a try and see but I think its more an issue with my phone. but I got time to play so we'll give it a shot.
Ok tried doing it with flashy and still the same result just no touch at all so I just give up with this and will stick with the one that works for me

Are you on the KK bootloader? I believe its a requirement. I used rashr to flash it myself.

Looking at my bootloader I do not think I am on the KK bootloader it gives me a date of 2013-09-25 I am assuming that is the original bootloader that it came with. Guess I'll do a search for the KK bootloader and see if I can get that flashed over.

To get the KK bootloader, I flashed the latest OTA through rsd lite. It should keep the boot loader unlocked but will remove root. If you plan on using a stock ROM, Q9Nap's GPE is very smooth and stable. Their thread gives links and instructions on how to flash OTA.

So the Frog has officially Croaked his Phone.
Yes you heard right I have managed to kill my phone. Only good thing is that I couldn't use it for much more than a mini wifi tablet so I didn't really loose anything.
I could not get Twrp 2710 to work was because I had the old boot loader So I decided to update the boot loader which I did but now the phone will not go out of the boot logo screen. I have successfully reinstalled my ROM and still will not go past the boot logo screen. I have tried fastbooting back to the old bootloader but no luck there either. I have spent about 2.5 hours this morning trying different things to get it to work and nothing I have found or came across will work. I have however successfully installed twrp 2710 and now have it working. Considering that is the only area of the phone That I can actually get into i guess thats something.

Some of the older Roms won't boot on the kk kernel they will not boot past the boot logo... When you upgraded did you flash the entire kk firmware via rsd? And it wouldn't boot past the boot logo...

did you try a dalvik wipe? sometimes it helps
I think you need to flash twpr (you can find it on this forum) then a full wipe, after that, try another rom (i'm using for now a 4.4.4 rom, but tried several 5.02 rom's. Was working fine only a irri noise when i was caling with somebody, think my mic is broken)I would say, try also to use odin multiflasher to reset all settings of your phone, start new from the begin, It can be a nasty problem but good to fix.

If you have TWRP, you can flash anything. Root permissions apply inside the rom, not inside a custom recovery.
If you're on the recovery, you can flash anything (that your recovery allows).
inside TWRP, find a way to wipe everything except EFS. Format /system , /cache , /data and /data/media if it shows.

yes it should be possible to instal kitkat or lollipop, did that several times, but you have to be sure you're going to use the right rom's (9305 or LTE) if you don't you divice can be bricked.
Are you sure your samsung has root? please download en install root checker from the playstore, this will tell you if your samsung has root!!
i ran this rom a few days (again ihave a personal problem with my mic, on lollipop there is a noise, on kitkat or older roms not) can't find what couses the problem, sadly....

advice, thought, or a suggestion.. dont use toolkits until you know what you are actually doing. do things the right way, until you learn how to do it properly. then use all the toolkits you want. the problem is that toolkits dont teach you a single thing, and doing things right on any nexus is very easy.
my suggestion would be to wipe data/system then reflaah cm again.

I actually am not a noob,
And I do know how to flash factory images manually using fastboot commands.
I downloaded all necessary files to flash manually.
I did that,
Wouldn't boot past boot animations.
Tried again with tmobile official (from google) files,
Same thing. So last resort was wugs.
Clean flashed cm12.1.
And wouldn't boot.
I appreciate your advice, but don't assume because I didn't succeed on a simple thing as a flash, that one is not familiar with this. The only thing I can think of that would have prevented boot was maybe I had a bad DL of cm.
But unlikely.
Planned on downloading a diff ROM and gapps.
If it doesn't I'll be flashing factory images of LMY47M manually and reroot and recovery and start from there.
Oh and thank you for the wipe/advice.
I did :-/ go fig
Reflashed before I restored backup but no go.

Yes, manually first and when it wouldnt* boot past animation, last resort was NRT

I reread the thread like 3x.
And it was mentioned that another user used NRT to downgrade successfully.
I thought the same thing, but didn't try it till I read that thread till 4am. This morning decided to take the plunge.
I was thinking also, if I just reflash bootloader and radio and put M back on, then just try manually flashing 5.1?

i did flash the new bootloader, but i went back and forth from M to terminus(rom) about 5 times yesterday. flaah the new bootloader again, and keep it. you trying to downgrade it might be the issue. btw, i flashed m, and the bootloader, via twrp recovery, its much easier and faster that way. after, i made a backup in recovery. so now all i do to go back and forth is restore the backups.
oh, and i meant you no disrespect. while it doesnt include everyone, most people using toolkits around here are noobs. and they are the ones that usually get stuck. so, i apologize

I think that's where I messed up from the beginning when I flashed M.
I didn't notice the modified boorloader that doesn't force encryption and it was all downhill from there.

no, it shouldnt unless you accidentally did it yourself. ive seen people do that too often. if you go into the wipe menu, be sure to go into advanced options, where you can pick what you want wiped.or itll wipe everything.

fingers crossed

What cracks me up the most is people that posses limited knowledge about fastboot flashing partition images are just seemingly willy nilly flashing images not really fully understanding what they are doing/flashing. We all have to learn somehow but I wouldn't do it at the expense of flashing a boot loader. If anything went wrong during a boatloader flash you would definitely have an unrecoverable hard brick.
Moral of the story.... People, read the how to's and SLOW down... Think about what you are doing. After reading the above replies its clear to me that people are getting a bit confused with a boot.img and a bootloader.img. its OK guys. Just be careful

bricked?

I've got the Note 4 N910T3
I rooted, via the beast kernal. Everything was going fine until I decided to factory reset (had a few programs go haywire)
factory reset went fine, I reinnitialized android with my google information. Rebooted the phone, and now I'm stuck at "custom binary blocked by frp"
It's my fault for not rechecking the option in developer settings, but its too late
I can get into download mode, but simply booting, or getting into recovery give me that error.

That would be the factory reset protection, you need to odin the stock images back on, run through the setup as fast as possible, open developer options, and turn on OEM Unlocking. From there you can flash whatever you'd like. The FRP will also block insecure kernels, and recoveries from being loaded.

That's exactly what I did. And it worked. This just so happened to be the first and only phone I've had with frp. Learn something new everyday.
