Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Active (SM-G890A) (AT&T) That I recently requested a sim unlock code for through AT&T. After I received the code, I inputted it upon the prompt, And after it accepted it, the phone froze and rebooted about 5 times or so, then got stuck on AT&T logo. I booted the phone into recovery mode and wiped the cache and factory resetted it. Now the phone just hangs immediately on the Samsung logo screen. I cannot boot into recovery mode, or safe mode. ODIN mode can still be accessed. Please note that the phone has never been rooted or had a custom ROM flashed on it. This phone has not had service for about a year now, So I cannot take it to AT&T. I wanted the phone unlocked so I could use it as a backup phone.
Same problem here, but mine seems stuck in bootloop, I'm trying some things for now, hope I can make it work again...

Similar problem here. But my screen stopped working too. I hear the Samsung logo sound. Sometimes the logo sound is completely played sometimes the phone seems to restart just in the middle of it. It seems to hang in a loop, its doing that as long as has battery and only stops as soon the blue light is out too. I can't shut it down with the keys.
There are a lot of photos on it. It would be nice to get them from the phone somehow.

Hi,
I have a Samung Galaxy S3 LTE International (GT-I9305) that I have flashed with the nightly cyanogenmod about a month ago. This morning, when I woke up, the phone was stuck on the 'boot screen' that just showed the "Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-I9305" wordings. I thought, no problem, I'll just take out the battery and restart. Tried that, no help. Boot screen still there. Thought again, no problem, I'll just boot into recovery mode and flash the latest nightly again. Tried that, to my horror, I couldn't boot into my clockworkmod recovery! Tried the up-home-power button key press, but this time the same boot screen shows up, and then disappears immediately again. Short while later, the same boot screen reappears and just hangs there.
Tried booting into download mode, but that warning screen appears for half a sec, disappears, and then the same boot screen reappears and hangs there again.
Any ideas what else I can try? Is this the motherboard dead?
Thanks!

Try to enter into download mode and flash a stock ROM (even if the screen doesn't display information [if it was not shutdown]).
Probably a motherboard problem due to SoC overheating or defective eMMc chip (I don't know if SDS exists on S3 LTE).
OK. After further googling, looks like my phone have all the symptoms of half-SDS. I've sent it to the service center. Hoping it'll be covered under warranty even though I've loaded cyanogenmod.
Hello! I am posting this because I have searched for hours on how to fix the phone with no luck, so this is a last resort. Im using a AT&T (sadly) galaxy s5. I was going to update to lollipop but couldn't since my device was rooted. I tried to unroot it by using supersu, but pulled the battery because it was taking forever (I know I know.) The phone at first booted to safestrap and I tried to factory reset to take off the root. Now, whenever I turn on my phone, it wold be at the samsung galaxy s5 screen with the little unlocked symbol. I tried to flash the stock firmware with odin. Didnt work. Now it boots (still says unlocked) and when the samsung animation finishes, it stays on a black screen. Any help at all? Thanks!
Try flashing the kernel from the root page
My Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 won't turn on, charge, boot into recovery or in download mode. I don't think I hard bricked my phone and I have a few reasons. My phone is running JellyBean 4.1.2 XXLSA, I've had problems with it after installing apps and the phone itself crashes and I need to reboot a couple times to make it work. This morning it was perfectly fine and I was doing things I regularly do on my phone and then the phone crashed and I wasn't able to do what I was doing previously I can't turn off the screen like it did, so I rebooted it. Then it got stuck on the Samsung logo for a good 30 minutes, I decided to boot into recovery and now the phone died and it won't do anything. The battery isn't bloated either and it was at 99%. Any help and suggestions would make me happy! :crying:

here is an image of what i am saying
please how can i use odin or force Recovery?
Good afternoon folks, I'm having a very big problem. Yesterday I was using my phone listening to music, I then received a text message in a group text. I went to pull down the notification center but my touch screen wasn't responding. I thought it was a one off but tried to open my phone and nothing was responding to my touch. I then did a reset (vol dnw+power) which restarted the phone but still the touch screen was unresponsive. Reset phone again now here I am in the infinite boot loop. It starts to galaxy note 8 screen and stays for about 30 sec then goes to recovery mode but will lock up and restart this process over again. I've tried to manually boot into recovery mode but it doesn't work. I'm able to boot to download mode where I've tried flashing with stock firmware but after flashing is restart back to the boot loop. Note 8 hasn't been flashed with anything custom before so this thing is a big mystery for me. Any help would be greatful. Thanks in advance

Make sure you flash the correct firmware for your model. What is SM-950u1 anyway?? You should also use the latest Odin 3.13.1 or higher. Odin lower than that is giving problems with Oreo firmware. Good luck. LJ

Thanks for your input, sm-n950u1 is the model number according to sam mobile site for the firmware. But found out that phone was still under manu. warranty after registering it on samsungs website. So i shipped it off yesterday so they can get to the bottom of it
