I reflashed the stock firmware on my phone after it was throwing some errors on boot, and once it got to the Updating... screen it changed to Erasing... and was stuck for over an hour before I did a force shutdown. After that it entered download mode one time (in which I did not do anything with odin) and now:
Turns on and gets stuck on the Note5 splash screen when plugged in or put on a charging pad, force shutdown works in this state.
No change to the above when holding vol+ and - or any other button combo before charging
Power button does nothing outside force shutdown, it will not boot off the charger when holding it nor do recovery or download mode shortcuts work
None of this changes after running flat and recharging
The buttons were all functional before, so I am guessing they still work. Have I hard bricked it?

I'm in a bit of a pickle here.
Galaxy Tab (p1010) was stuck in a loop a while ago. I've tried to put the Tab into Download mode to flash a new firmware onto it but it doesnt work.
The tab, when plugged into mains just turns on, blank screen with back-light on and turns back off. It keeps doing this repetitively. If I hold down the Volume - button and the power button it goes into Download mode for about half a second and switches off again. The one or two times in which I've managed to get to Download mode doesn't last for more than 15 seconds which is not enough for it to download the firmware from Odin.
I've tried Volume + and Power button to get to recovery but no luck there either
I'm going to leave the tab on charge overnight but has anyone else had this problem before and found a solution to it??
Edit: NEVERMIND!!!!! In my stupidity I wasn't using the Samsung Mains plug to charge it so not enough power was going to the Tab. I managed to put the Samsung charger in, leave it for a couple of mins and managed to get to Download mode just fine. Tab is now reflashed and working fine
Hi,
Have been using my S3 Mini fine for a couple of months now, running Maclaw's CM 11.0 mod. However, about 30 minutes ago the device freezed and rebooted, and now I'm stuck in the infamous boot loop. I'm seeing the "Samsung Galaxy S III Mini GT-I8190" screen, which is shown for between 30 seconds and a minute, and then the device automatically reboots.
I know how to boot to recovery mode and download mode, but the problem is that my phone doesn't want to ... I cannot turn off the device: if I remove the battery and put it back in after a couple of minutes, it automatically boots. I have tried all sorts of timings and pressing the recovery/download mode buttons before/during/after putting the battery, it just gets stuck at the boot screen :/
Any ideas how I can recover from this? Force the phone to power off completely, or enter recovery/download mode from the boot screen?
Thanks!
Update: it gets better/worse: when the battery runs out, the damn thing finally turns itself off. When it's shut down, I can boot it to download mode, recovery mode is not working. Ofcourse, I cannot stay for longer than about a minute in download mode, since the battery is empty ...
Plugging the device in to charge it: starts charging a bit, then automatically boots and gets stuck in the boot loop again ...
Update2: what the f ... Completely frustrated, I just unplugged the phone, upon which it restarted ... and loaded my OS. And then shut down again ofcourse, because of empty battery. I'm completely frustrated AND baffled right now
Good afternoon,
I'm facing a problem on my colleague's LG L90 phone, it suddenly started to bootloop and nothing seems to solve the problem.
The only way to turn it off is to remove the battery, but as soon as you put it back (be it instantly after removing it or after any period of time) the phone turns on and starts to bootloop again, so there's no "turn it off and turn on again pressing x buttons". The bootloop lasts about 10 seconds before it restarts the process.
When I connect it to my PC with the battery nothing changes, and the PC doesn't recognize the device, as it reboots before the PC can see it. Plugging it without the battery shows a screen with an empty battery for some seconds and then it reboots, showing that screen again.
I tried to enter recovery mode, emergency mode and fastboot mode without success. Plugging the phone on the PC or placing the battery while pressing vol -, vol +, both or any with the power button simply has no effect on the phone, it just keeps bootlooping.
The phone model is LG-D410hn, and it doesn't have unlocked bootloader, root or anything similar, it has everything stock.
Does anyone know what I can do to try to save it?
Hard reset is volume- & power pressed for a short moment, letting both keys go and instantly pressing both again. Solved my bootloop problem.
I was messing around a bit the other night with the build.prop trying to get a bit more performance out of the tablet, then rebooted - and it appears to be barely hanging onto life now - it will not boot, I can't get into recovery mode, can't get into safe mode, and I can't get into download mode. Since it is not powering up - the computer, ODIN, or ADB are unable to find it.
when the battery of totally dead, and I plug it on - the battery charging thing pops up, with a 0Q% percent battery - and it will charge at that point - I tried to boot it once it was around 20%, and the Samsung logo popped up like it was going to start, and then everything went dead again.
I have on the tablet:
TWRP Recovery
rooted
cyanogenmod 13 with nightly builds
Things have been working great for the past 5 months, up until this issue.
So I don't know at this point if I am deal with a bad battery issue (Not holding enough charge to boot the tablet) or a software / hardware issue - or it is all software problems with the build.prop
I have talking to a person that does JTAG, and he did not think it was a software issue - he was kind of leaning towards it being a power issue - just based on the battery going from 20% down to 0% with the tablet not even turned on - and that it would not help things to have it JTAGED.
so some though - what could it be? and how do I go about getting the tablet up and working again.
The battery thing does make some sense - but to have it happen right when I making changes, and the reboot - is strange.
I am using the original charger, and the original cord.
FIXED
Hopefully this will be of some to you guys out their with your phone or tablet stuck on the Samsung logo - after the tablet sitting overnight on the logo - I started playing around, and found that by pressing the home button and volume down for about 5 minutes, it would shut the screen off, but only for about a second - but if during that second, if you released all the buttons, and did the home, volume down and power, if will reboot into download mode - took several tries to get everything done that quick, but it is possible, and that's how I got the tablet up and working again.

If you hold Home, Vol down and Power for about ten seconds, it should reboot the tablet. As soon as the green screen appears, release the buttons and press Vol up, and you should be in download mode. Or, better yet, if you have TWRP installed, hold Home, Vol Down and power and as soon as the screen turns black, switch from Vol down to Vol up and when the Samsung logo appears, release the power button. That should put you in TWRP where you can restore a backup.
I have Xperia Z3+ dual E6533 that was on custom ROM working fine for almost 4 months.
suddenly after installing Xposed framework second day while on ultra stamina mode once I try to deactivate it and go back to normal it goes into boot loop.
once I turn off the phone and let it charge to 100% tried again to boot but still the same so I left the phone for a couple of hours to be cool down after around 15 min boot loop.
suddenly it's not responding anymore for any key combination or hard reset or reflash.
I tried hard reset by the small button next to sim card slot, by (Power & Volume +), by removing the battery and reinstall it again.
now the computer does not recognize the phone at all and cannot go in flash mode or fastboot mode.
I tried also holding the volume- before connecting the phone and holding it until connecting to PC but nothing showing in device manager.
now all that is coming that once it's connected to wall charger it's blinking red for 2 days now and while pressing the power button the blinking red light turns into stable one not blinking.
I have already read most of the similar issues written for other devices and tried most of them but still nothing.
can anyone help me?
