Stuck on bootscreen - Samsung Galaxy M21 Questions & Answers

Hello guys
As title says im stuck on bootscreen with "samsung galaxy m21". It happened before like 3-4 times but stopped after. Now the problem is more serious. It wont shut off, always restarts to the same point
I installed some apps from apk pure and used them for 3 days
I have unlocked bootloader no root
is it possible to save my device ?

Something similar happened with me yesterday. By the grace of almighty Allah, I managed to save my device. Wait for drain battery completely. After power off, charged it some percentage like 15%. Open Odin in your PC. On your mobile, go to download mode (press and hold both volume buttons, then connect mobile to PC by insert data cable to mobile). Flash samsung firmware by Odin.

I am facing the same issue. There was rom update installed and post that its stuck on Boot Screen. Where can I find the Samsung full rom and the latest version of ODIN that will work on the Samsung M21
Also will the phone be in warranty after I install the rom through ODIN ?

You can find latest Samsung firmware in 'samfw.com' website. Also, you can find odin in this forum and some M21 telegram channel.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S i9000 still not booting

I'm still kinda new to the Android platform and I need some help on this one.
I have a Galaxy Vibrant on Bell I9000m that was freezing after the "Samsung S" start up animation. I put the phone in download mode and using Odin I reinstalled the stock firmware (T959UVJFD) with (vibrant_21_stock_s1_odin_20100512.pit) on the phone. Everything appeared to go ok and Odin indicated "pass." After this was complete the phone is supposed to start a reboot process. This didn't happen, instead the battery life indicator will come on the screen for about 1 sec then the phone will reboot and show the battery indicator again. This will not stop until I unplug it. When I try to turn the phone on it will show the Samsung screen and then totally shut off. I can get it back in download mode. I tried three times with the same result.
Any suggestions?

Can you get into recovery (VolumeUp+Home+Power)?
If yes you could try to wipe your data-partition.
Note that after a new flash (or factory reset) the phone can take 5-10 minutes to boot.
Did you use a full firmware to flash (pda+phone+csc) or just a pda-file?
Did you use a .pit-file?
First question did you use the correct firmware for your phone ??
Your battery fully charged ???
jje
:Thanks for your replies. I can't get into recovery mode any more...I could before I used Odin. I used the pda file (which is a .tar file) + the pit file. The battery had over half charge when I did it.
Please excuse the ignorance of this question but is there :different firware for each network. So does Tmobile have specific firmware that if I put it on my Bell Mobility phone it can screw it up?
Thanks
More importantly than recovery is download mode, can you get into download mode?
Vol down + power + menu with usb disconnected and phone off.
Yes. Download mode still works. I tried reloading the software 3 times and i got the same problem each time.
Even though its a "Vibrant" its actually I9000M model. Vibrant is the american model. I9000M (bell) is the international model. So use different firmware
Seems like your trying to flash another phone's firmware.

help bricked phone

Hi everyone. Im not normally in this section as i have an x8 but my friend has seen all the roms,mods and updates ive done so he tried to do it to his galaxy s i9000 without rooting or unlocking his bootloader. I asked him what he did he said he just tried to update software with keis but now it wont turn on just white screen with a red triangle in the middle i hope its download mode as i dont have a galaxy i dont really no but the battery has died and it wont charge im guessing hes damaged the bootloader am i right and if so whats the best corse of action to tepair it. Thanks.
You can check if it is in download mode by pluggin it in pc with odin. See the wiki page what it says about soft brick.
Soft-Bricked
After flashing a rom you might not be able to enter the Download Mode by pressing Volume Down + Home + Power. In this case a so called 'JIG' would be helpfull.
You could build it on your own: [HOWTO] [REF] Get Download Mode without 3-button combo using homemade JIG
... or buy a preassembled one on a well known marketplace.Hint: There is no difference between a JIG for Samsung S/S2 or S-Plus.
See if you can go into d0wnload mode with vol down home and power. If that works go and try to find the stock firmware for the phone and download and extract. Download odin and put csc pda and phone/modem in there rightful places. 512 pit in pit section. Pit usually comes with odin download. If not find it somewhere. Repartition checked and hit start. It should reboot when done. It will problaby take a couple of min to boot but be patient. If it starts to go into boot loop put back into download mode again and reflash. Its very hard to mess up the phone to where you cant fix it. So relax and watch tuts or whatever helps you best. I know of a link i that i will find and post for you when i do.

DEAD bricked phone
So, my friend's phone (hopefully she'll stay my friend after this) was turning itself on and off all on it's own. So I (no good deed goes unpunished) suggested that I will upgrade her firmware for her. She had 2.3.3 firmware. I downloaded the odin1.7 as well as a package of all the info for 2.3.5 firmware upgrade. I flashed the phone- originally only using the PDA option with a file called: CODE_I9000XXJVS_CL565837_REV03_user_low_ship
It worked, the phone restarted and showed the firmware as being 2.3.5.
I don't know why, but I thought it would be a good idea to update the CSC and the pit and the modem as well- so I did that. when this was finished - though odin said that the flashing was successful the phone is completely unresponsive. The computer doesn't recognize it, it doesn't show any signs of life at all- like it's in the dark ages and there is no electricity in it.
HELP!!!
First question: do you think a jig will work? how dangerous is it?
second question: is there any other option to try that I haven't come across other than changing the motherboard, and if there isn't do you know where I can get one, bear in mind I live in Israel.
Please e-mail me a copy of the response to [email protected] if you can...
Odin dosnt pick it up atall plus the batteries dead aswell now and the stupid thing wont charge so i cant evan try any thing till i find away or some one to charge it but thanks for the tips.

Try to recharge the battery from other phone or use another battery.
Check whether you have the download mode working. (Home+Power+Volume down)
If yes, put phone in download mode and flash Darky RE or any other Rom via ODIN. Try to get the recovery mod after rooting and then try ROMs.
Or try restarting the phone it may work without update also. Long press power in download mode restarts the phone. However be careful.
What is the status of the device can you go to download mode
Post your firmware files name and how you choose in the odin flasher.
Dont try anything crazy you will bricked your device more:banghead:

Alternate way to Download mode
Hi gavster26
I have been there with a buddy's phone... not a nice place.
Found a link showing this other trick ... but you have to trial and error this one on the different combos:
1. Phone off
2. USB cable pluged in
3. Odin running
4. Down (or Up - test both) Volume button + Home button + plug in the USB cable.
This booted my dead "bricked" phone into download mode.
Try it.

You have to try again to get it into download mode.
Use Odin for your device model and run it as administrator. If Kies is installed, kill all Kies processes by using Task Manager. Prepare the files under PDA etc. Pull out the battery and hold power button pressed for 1min. Then keep all buttons combo for download mode and insert the battery while pressed (needs some acrobacy skills). If the download mode starts, you can connect your phone and flash firmware again.

Galaxy S I9000 no Power - Indian Model

Hi all,
I feel so stupid of myself for messing up with the phone..
Have an Indian version of Samsung Galaxy S I9000 with Customer ROM: Cyanogen mod 7 (2.3.7 Gingerbread) which was functioning perfectly fine.
I went into CWM recovery and chose the option reboot recovery just to see what it is...after which it kept booting up to the recovery screen and would not load the OS..
I saw a few threads on Google and XDA, downloaded the pit file from samfirmware website and installed it using odin under PDA post which the phone does not power on at all...
I know for a fact that the battery had 80% still remaining - Even if i plug the charger it still does not power on..
I'ts sooo irritating and i'm requiring your help - Please help me with this...

remove battery and reinsert battery,
since you only flashed Pit and NO ROM/Modem/kernel or did you flash anything else?? Phone would most likely not start
Try for download mode ( volumedown+home+power) and connect to ODIN, this time flash all, you can use rescue kit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29331775&postcount=1 or complete firmware meant for India from samfirmware
Hi,
Thanks for your reply... My phone completely dead... just does not power on.... Tried booting into recovery mode and download mode.. reseated battery etc etc... no indication of power at all..
Any ideas ?

Hey

Mini can't start

Hi,
I have a big problem. I made a stupid mistake and flashed an original Gingerbread firmware directly over Froyo.
Now my Phone isn't able to start, the only thing tha happens is, that the backround light turns on. I am not able to reach the download mode and my pc can't detect the phone.
Could anyone help me?
Maizelll
Today i bought a USB-JIG, but I can't reach the bootloader with it.
you cannot reach bootloader mode with jig and try going into download mode by pressing power+home+volume down button
and gingerbread firmware is always flashed over froyo
i think you have used the firmware which is without bootloader and thats why you are getting black screen
just try to flash a four package firmware
But my pc doesn't detect the phone and i can't reach the download mode with the three buttons, i always get a black screen
try to search for samsung usb drivers and install them. after, recover by odin.
try to put off the battery , sim card and microSD , wait for 1-2 minutes
after that , put back battery only
try to enter download mode
*sorry for my bad english*

Ok... first download full firmware from sammobile or in yagyagaire's blog. Next you need to remove sim, sd card and battery from your phone. Now hold the three buttons which let you go in download mode. While holding those buttons insert the battery and you will most probably be in download mode. Then flash the downloaded firmware via Odin and then :victory:
