Without going into two pages of explanations, suffice it to say I am stuck in a bootloop after trying to update my tablet to OmniROM 8.1 daily from OmniROM 8.1 Homemade. Things went steadily downhill until I was forced to flash the stock firmware from Odin. However, I now am stuck in a bootloop betwwne "Android is starting" and the SAMSUNG starting screen. I can get to the download (Odin Mode) screen but not to recovery.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi everyone,
I've had numerous problems with OTA updates with my AT&T SM-G900A since I got it. I'm not in the US anymore and my phone was unlocked, so I thought "hey, how hard could it be" and tried to flash it.
I used the following binaries that were posted here a couple of days ago: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s5/general/g900aucs4cpa2-odin-files-em-hot-t3372388
I ran them through Odin3 3.09, and got a PASS - but the phone is stuck at the boot logo screen ("Samsung Galaxy S5 Powered by Android" screen).
Download mode still works, but normal booting, recovery booting and safe mode do not.
Any suggestions on what I could do?
EDIT: I used the stock image located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2714455 to reflash it using Odin again. It seems to have worked, though all sorts of apps were crashing. I've just done a factory reset and am in the process of restoring it, but it seems promising for now. Never trying to update AT&T crap again.
Hey man, are you still having troubles? I just rooted my Sm-G900A, and then decided to use Odin to flash it with the 5.1.1 files. So this is what happened to me:
1: Flashed AP with the 5.1.1 file, passed but stuck at the Samsung Logo- Powered by Android.
2: rebooted into download mode and flashed "BL" or Bootloader with the 5.1.1 file and I got passed that screen. Now I'm waiting for it to optimize my apps.
My guess is after we flash the AP file we then have to flash the bootloader as well. So if you haven't tried that I'd suggest it to see what happens.
I'm hoping someone on here will be able to help me with my Tab S2. I bought it around 2 years ago and immediately flashed with a Cyanogen custom rom.. The tablet has always worked fine until yesterday, a notification appeared that the SuperSU needed and update so i pressed ok. The tablet restarted and is now either stuck on the Samsung logo screen or in Odin mode ready to download.
Other than now losing the tablet and claiming on my contents insurance, i'm really not sure what to do. I've been searching for answers but haven't gotten very far at all Please can anyone give me advice on how to get my tablet functioning again?
Can you get to download mode and stay there? if you can, you can try re-flashing a stock rom on to it, it might fix the messed up super su config.
I had the same problem too. If i can´t go into the recovery mode, or i get bootloops i flash the original samsung firmware. If my tablet starts normally, i start again. Sometimes the only way (for me)
Hello everyone I have a problem with my Galaxy s5 G900A (AT&T) his booting but the screen is black but before that happens I did some manipulation on it I will give you the time line of what did happen and I hope that someone could have the answer to may issue (Sorry for my English)
1) My phone was running normally until one day where he turned off and was stuck in boot loop but after some hours he turned on and worked normally and that did happen a lot of time.
2) One day the same thing happened but this time it was really stuck in Boot Loop for days so I decided to flash a new ROM using Odin so I did download this ROM “G900AUCS4DPH3”
3) I flashed the ROM using Odin but that didn't change anything.
4) I tried to flash another ROM “G900AUCS4CPA2” a lollipop ROM after that the phone was still stuck on the boot loop but after some time he did boot but the screen was black so I tried to take off the battery and pushed the lock button for 1, 2 and 5 minutes but in vine that didn't change anything (note: when I tried to access the recovery mode the phone was rebooting but I could access the download mode and the screen was turning on so it wasn't a screen problem)
5) After this I tried to flash the same ROM but by enabling the flash boot loader option in Odin then the phone did run but the screen was black and the boot loop problem was gone and when I tried to access the download mode sometimes it was working but the screen was black and sometimes the phone was rebooting (I felt the vibration) so I decide to use 300K tool (it a software that put the phone in download mode just by plugging it to your computer).
6) After all this I tried a lot of other roms but the problem was steel the same.
7) I tried to flash the roms with a pit file but it didn't change anything.
So now the screen is always black but the is booting normally I don’t know what to do help me please.
List off roms that I tried:
Android 6: G900AUCS4DPH4
G900AUCS4DPH3
Android 5: G900AUCS4CPA2
Android 4: G900AUCU1ANCE
G900AUCU2AND3
Note: when I try to flash Android KitKat roms Odin shows me an error message.
Odin versions that I used:
Odin3 v3.12.3
Odin3 v3.09
Odin3 v3.07
I was downgrading from 8.0 to 7.1.1 and I used Odin. The process worked and Odin said it completed properly. The phone restarted and now I haven't been able to get past the Samsung screen during bootup. Any recommendations?
I'm trying to help a friend out who's s2 tab seemed to have gotten into a bootloop. Unfortunately he didn't have the oem lock turned off, so I can't install twrp. It gets to a "installing system update" screen and reboots. I've tried downloading the official firmware from samsung and flashing it thru odin. It passes but goes thru the same loop after.
Any ideas?
