Looped after ODIN flash of OI firmware - cannot unloop - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6

Using already described methods of wipe and restore I cannot get it to work at all.
I get to DOWNLOADINg or even to ANdroid restore menu - but cannot get to log in
ODIN can only flash the OI firmware and not the OH nor OF.

Thats because the OI updates bootloader and you cant go back. Have to stick with latest update

Also having this issue. My S6 randomly rebooted on me and is stuck on the logo screen. I'm on 5.1.1. I cannot access the recovery menu, only the download (Odin) menu. Attempting to flash the stock rom thru ODIN does nothing. Doing the emergency recovery via Smart Switch also does nothing. It goes thru the motions but does not solve the boot loop. Anyone have any other suggestions?

phone is semi screwed up please help

hi guys i have a problem with my phone (obviously)
when i try to get into recovery all i get is a scrambled screen, it used to be ok before i installed a new rom, will it be a case of un root then re root or is there an easier fix?
cheers

Could you upload any image/photo about it?
I think is the bootloader. What is your actual rom? And what rom before flash?
---------
Well, I'm sure your. Problem is whit de bootloader, just flash gingerbread whit bootloader via Odin. look in the forum for gingerbread whit sbl, when you flash them you could install any cooked/modify rom shutout problems whit the screen

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

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?

[Q] stuck on teamwin logo

i'm using omnirom 4.4.2 but i want to upgrade to 4.4.4 but everytime i boot to recovery i'm stucked at teamwin logo
Bad luck...
Could you give some more info? Did you do a factory reset? What ROM exactly did you flash? Why don't you just wait that someone answers your question?

With it a couple of minutes and see if you get the options.
I'm using omni ROM 4.4 since nov2013. This all started when I flashed the 050514 build. I did not do factory reset because i'm using omnirom before
I waited for a few minutes. Still nothing goes to teamwin logo then black screen then teamwin logo then black screen over and over

I am more or less a noob so I need very precise instructions if I am to follow your advice.
I have a rooted N7000 running Asylum Omnirom 4.4.2. (Omni version 4.4.2-20140318-Asylum-N7000, Baseband N7000XXLT3 Kernel version 3.0.64-666-g5984047 [email protected] #1 Tue Mar 18 05:29:00 CET 2014 Asylum Omni Build omni_n7000-userdebug 4.4.2 KVT49L Eng.chasmodo.20140318.045429 test-keys)
I have TWRP on it (unsure of the version - all the software I used to root my phone is on my external harddrive at home.). This morning it was working fine but then rebooted unexpectedly. When it powered back on, it got stuck at the Samsung screen, so I rebooted but it was still stuck so I pulled the battery to reboot. No good, still in bootloop. So went into recovery mode and did factory reset/wipe data. It started but saw no progress whatsoever (i.e. no blue colour overtaking the grey along the spinning bar showing it was progressing along). I had to do some other things so left it plugged into the wall charger (battery was at about 78% when it rebooted but I did have both bluetooth and wifi running so that could really drain it). When I returned about 40 minutes later it was back at the Samsung screen. Now if I try to go into recovery, I get the TEAMWIN splash screen but it never goes beyond that. Tried pulling the battery, sim card, SD card, and various combinations. Tried a different battery, tried all sorts of variations I found searching but none have gotten me either past the Samsung screen if I try to boot up normally, or past the TEAMWIN screen if I try to boot into recovery.
I found this thread from last year and I am hoping this will work for my situation. However, I have never used ODIN (it seems to be there if I do the Volume down-power-home combination) so I want to make sure I understand this precisely. When you say flash the raw kernel, what precisely are you referring to? When I originally rooted my phone I just followed a YouTube video and don't recall having a "raw kernel". So I need some guidance as to what you mean by this, please.
Thanks

Search for Philz thread for N7000.. go to the 3rd post where it says TW kernels and download the xxtla kernel.. download odin 1.85 from google. Make sure you have Samsung usb drivers installed.. If not, google that too and download from Samsung developer site. Install it.. Make sure you have no kies processes running in the task manager.
Boot the phone in download mode and connect to PC. open odin as admin. (watch Youtube video for how to flash using odin)
Select the kernel file in PDA and uncheck the autoreboot option..
flash.. Once you get a green pass or res ok.. remove the cable and remove the battery.
Boot into recovery by pressing the vol up+home+home (obviously put the battery back in)
You should get Philz recovery.. Check and proceed from there.

I tried using Kies too, but it did not work.:crying::crying::crying:
I was going to suggest the same thing. Try using Kies and go to Tools\Emergency firmware recovery and see if that works.
Can you get into download mode?

Yes, I can. One of my attached photos has shown as above. I tried to flash via ODIN or Smart Switch ( Kies 3), the program has shown OK but I still got the problem.

It is pretty hard to brick these phones. Just in case you have a bad file or something. Grab the zip and follow these instructions. I know that all these files in this zip are good so it is worth a shot.
Even if you know what you are doing, follow the instructions exactly, you may be overlooking something. It happens to everyone sometimes.

After you odin whichever firmware you flashed, wait about 10 min or so on that boot screen that is stucked. Then pull the battery out. Go into stock recovery but power+home+vol up. Then select wipe data/reset. Reboot and it should boot just fine.
At least that's how i fixed my phone that stuck few times like what you going through.

The problem is my phone can not access to stock recovery or TWRP recovery. It just stuck at first bootscreen which is shown "Samsung Galaxy Note 4 powered by Android", then restart and stuck again. So that I can not wipe data or reset to fix.

Since you can still get into download mode, what happens if you flash TWRP through ODIN? Step 10 in the instructions I posted assuming it is still rooted or start at step 8 if not. Just to see if you can get recovery working again.
You are wasting time...start over, it's your best and quickest fix....

[B] HELP ME! [/B] :crying:

So, I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy S5 G900h. I was trying to install a ROM, wich needed the PhilZ Touch Recovery, wich, as you probably know, in order to install it you must go into recovery mode. Thats when things started to go down. I wasnt able to boot into recovery mode, when i pressed VOLUME UP + HOME BUTTON + POWER, i got the samsung screen, and it didnt went off ever, unless i take the battery out. I tried everything (it wasnt the reactivation lock, i had it deactivaded), i was desesperate to get to the fricking recovery mode, so I found this app called QUICK REBOOT, wich allowed me to boot the phone in recovery mode by just selecting an option. So I did. Now my phone doesnt boot anymore, it shows the Samsung logo and it stays there forever. I have no idea what to do now, please help me :crying: im such a noob in these things

Use Odin to flash stock firmware back, then reflash the first custom recovery. Then boot to recovery and flash Philz. Then reboot recovery and flash the ROM.

Thanks dude, I'll try that. I can download any firmware that is the same as my model right? Any firmware of the G900H
Yep, but it is best to use the one with the closest location to yours...that also speaks the same language.
