i bricked my phone and i cant do anything i am using samsung galaxy s6 and when phone turns on just samsung logo appears but stays there forever
and i cant go to the recovery mode it is like deleted. Tried to re-root phone thought it could help. Guess not... anyways i need help just got that phone...
I have the exact same issue. Xposed bricked my phone (S7 Edge, SM G935F). My own fault, but I need to fix it asap. Getting phone back tomorrow in factory reset state. My only back-up is TWRP. I managed to create that back-up while the phone was already in bootloop status. Question is if I root again and restore the back-up I created, won't the Xposed being part of that back-up file simply brick my phone again. I can't figure out how to remove xposed from my TWRP back-up so it doesn't cause issues.
Any help would be much appreciated. I am paying $50 to have the phone fix and if I mess it up, it will be another issue.
Nougat or Marshmallow ?
Which firmware, model numbers? Have you tried flashing your preferred firmware via Odin in PC or Mac? List what you've done for us...

You need to put the phone on download mode and refresh the entire firmware. I think Samsung do it via ODIN still.. but not sure.

Hi everybody
I'm really not lazy men, I check almost all posts here on the best forum in the world xda. I face this problem before 2 days, I unlock my phone with Galaxy_Ace_Unlock and root it, everything was worked perfect and suddenly it lose mobile signal. I check phone locking and it was locked again.
It wasn't main problem , then I read on this forum that this aplication is not safe and I uninstall it, after that I rebote my phone and got strange problem. I can't boot my phone I only get samsung boot screen 1 sec and it keeps restarting every sec. When I charge my phone via charger I don't see anything just screen is blanking.
More one thing, when I deleted app galaxy ace unlock I deleted from sd card root file that I use to root my phone.
I need help I try flashing it with odin 4.38 and no success, I can enter download mode, everything pass perfect and I got message PASS but phone can't boot, when it's finishing with odin on last step phone restart it self and keep blanking. This is very anoying problem, please help me if you can.
I use swisscom galaxy mini s5570 and I don't know how to solve this.
I try many different stock rooms but no success, always when I finish with odin it's successfull but I can't boot, I can't access recovery mode because phone is blinking all the time.
I know that this forum is most powerfull and tha we have the best experts, better than android developers that have, and I'm sure that you can help me in some way.
More once, I can enter download mode and flash with odin but I can' boot.
Sorry for my bad english I'm from Bosnia and my first language is Bosnian
Thanks, Reuf
If you can enter download mode, ODIN will most probably work. I think you have gone wrong while working with ODIN. Follow these instructions carefully and double check whether the correct files are selected for each category.
If you still have the problem try flashing a custom recovery and a custom ROM.
Or, the other most probable thing is some hardware error, the only thing to do then is to go to a Samsung center, and act dumb (like you do not know anything about rooting) and if you warranty is not void, they might get it right for you..

I can't go to the Samsung center because I bought phone from my friend. It was a new phone I got it in the box but he bought it in Swiss. I will try some other ROM but really I try many of them.
I think my phone is lost

But even in Swiss they have warranty agreements and receipts so if it is new you should have such purchasing receipts - otherwise your friend pulled you over the barrel.
Anyway, maybe you tried a ROM w/o boot-image to prevent from bootloops.
Maybe you should try the 2.3.5 version coming from samsung:

I cant get my phone to boot past the ATT screen. I screwed up somewhere trying to change from the X-note rom and lost my data connection. Tried changing roms and that just went down hill so they i went to the MJ5 restore steps and now its really screwed up. I can get it to go into download mode and it finished a restore process but then it wont boot up do anyone have a file that i can use or something. Im totally lost now and without an actual MJ5 odin file seems like nothing works. Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Odin does not work on MJ5... That is why there are so many threads warning you not to mess with Changing from MJ5 to something else... Or anything based on MJ5... MJ5 has a locked bootsector and there is nothing to unlock it right now meaning it cannot be written over. Once you mess it up, it will stay that way till somebody cracks the boot loader and we can then use any rom... I would just try to hard brick it now and make a warranty claim. If it is hard bricked they cannot test it to see if you have tampered with it...

Spoke with Samsung and they told me to take my phone to best buy and have a samsung tech look at it because at the moment its stuck in emergency recovery. Does that make it detectable?
Once they get it to boot which they can, they will see the KNOX has tripped and you will be out of a warranty and charged for their work..

Just to be clear, your device is a samsung captivate? what about calling at&t, on another phone of course. you might also try searching the forums.

Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try again.
And it stays that way no matter what i do unless i try to manually put it into download mode. Other then that the phone doesnt do anything at all.
So have you tried getting Kies for your PC and using it instead of Odin?? Then use it as the phone is suggesting?

Yes i have tried both ways and nothing works. Samsung is telling me that i need to mail them my phone and that they will try and fix it. Which basicly means that i will be without a phone until next year. So now im stuck between should i wait and hopefully a fix will be released or found or should i just send it back and feel naked for some weeks.
This is why you should always keep an old flip phone or older smart phone as a back up. I have an old Sony Ericsson flip as well as an HTC Pure in the event I need to send my Note back for service and not be without a phone. By phone I mean the actual phone. Worse case I can go two weeks with out portable internet.
I would just send it in as it looks like that will take less time then waiting for a bootloader crack..
Ok some how i got the phone to boot back up through odin with various files and it but now i have a bunch forced closes on like the direct pen input and process system isnt responded. And i dont have data...anyone know a way for me to fix the data issue?
Flash this in recovery (either side load or put it on your external sd

Help! I installed the wrong custom rom on my phone, I installed the s5830i icedroid rom on my s5830, curiously thinking it might go into a boot loop at worst but I was horribly wrong. As soon as I pressed reboot now on cwm my phone blacked out and never lighted on again. I can get it in download mode, it shows in Odin but it gets stuck in setup connection. Is there a software or something to revive the phone, I can't hand it in to samsung cause I purchased it off ebay and they want a receipt which the original owner doesn't have, or should I try a jig. What do you think guys? This phone is nearly brand new and don't want it going to waste.

Usb jig wont help... Nothing will help the only solution to this problem is jtagging....
Well samsung took my phone in luckily under warrenty so I should receive my phone back soon
Glad to hear that buddy. No more worries
So here's my problem. I think I've bricked my device. Don't know if it's softbrick or hardbrick, but either way my phone just does not boot up. The only instance it works is when I remove the battery and try to charge the phone, it shows a picture that it didn't find a battery. All of this occurred while trying to unlock the bootloader. Something similar already happened to me like a month or two ago, but I was able to flash stock KDZ using the online LG Support Tool. Anyway, the part where it all messed up is probably the aboot.bin file, although I'm quite certain I flashed the right file for my device. Also, installed CWM recovery, and after restarting the device it just won't boot at all, not even the software upgrade mode or anything. So my guess is that something is wrong because of either a wrong aboot.bin file for my D405N or the custom recovery. I tried flashing stock KDZ, but I couldn't get my phone into software upgrade mode. Also, tried doing a hard reset, but an LG logo didn't even come up. The battery is at least half full. So is there anything I can actually do in this case? Any help is appreciated.
P.S. Yeah, I did post in another thread (though I didn't create it), but I'm quite desperate with this. Either I fix it myself somehow, or I'll have to take it to the warranty.
EDIT: Took it to a repair. Should be done in around a week. Got an old Samsung Galaxy Mini as a replacement.

Remember Next time Unlock Bootloader before Installing CWM.
Hi,
Just received my note 9 and downloaded the latest firmware. Installed via odin. One of the files failed so I redownloaded the file and updated just the AP. I probably should have done all files. It installed fine but i'm now stuck in a boot loop.
I can't get into recovery with ether volume up, bixby and power. I just get a blue screen with an android on its side?
Any tips. Very worried the phone is bricked. Hoping I don't have to wait for the battery to die as that could take a couple of days.

At this point, your only two options are EDL (emergency download mode) which technically requires you to crack op the device and mess with the board inside of the device, or just a warranty replacement if you haven't tripped Knox.
Ok thanks for the info. I was only trying to install the latest stock firmware via odin so i'd hope Knox wasn't tripped.
Interestingly my SM-N9600 doesn't have any serial number on the back. When I took it to samsung to see if they had any special tools they wouldn't touch it because they said it was a refurb phone.
I'm wondering if the refurb is infact not a SM-N9600 which would be why the flashing a new recovery bricked the phone.

Well, that's a crap move by them. I know for sure that they have a proprietary software that can revive pretty much any Samsung phone as long as it's not hard bricked. They could've just flashed it and helped you. I have a friend who works for Samsung and I have seen him use that software at best buy once. I mean, you've spent your own money to use their phone after all. I don't know why it matters if it's just software.
