Wonder broken? - Samsung Galaxy W I8150

Hey guys,
I've got a problem with my galaxy wonder.. It won't start anymore. If I try to start it just shows the "Samsung" Logo for about a second and restarts again and again. It stucks in a loop showing the samsung logo and then restarts.
I can still enter the download mode but not recovery. I tried to flash stack rom with Odin but it doesnt help.
Before the problem appeared I had the newest blacknotes rom installed. And this wasn't working very fine. Sometimes there were many FCs so I needed to restart the phone. Sometimes it just restarted without any message etc.
And today it wanted to restart again but then stuck in that loop. When i recognized the loop I took out the battery cause I thought it needs a "real" reboot.
Thanks in advance,
domidinosaur RAWR

Its Okay , No Problem you can just reflash it again using stock ROM. ^_^
It will be fixed.

Thanks for your answer.
But as said, I already tried to flash a Stock Rom with Odin. Seems like it worked but the "Samsung-Restart Loop" is still there x:

I had this problem before. when I flash 7th CWG ROM, my phone receiving so many FC, so I reboot and then its going to bootloop and bootloop again and I can't go to recovery too. Yes I try to flash stock ROM with odin but nope was change. The only way is to bring your phone back to SSC, they will replace your motherboard and it cost nothing on me
good luck
sorry for my bad english

Try flashing cwm again using Odin and then some custom ROM. That is what I had done.

I tried to do this too but without any success. Phone keeps stuck in that loop x:
And so I can't enter CWM to install a custom rom.
I guess the only way is to make use of my warranty. Am I right thinking that my warranty isn't lost when I have reflashed samsung firmware to the phone?

when flashing with odin, during the reboot do you see the robot? if you do then press the menu button when you see the robot and you will be in recovery. then do a factory reset, reboot.

Problem
I have the same problem. Phone is restarting again again and again. Can not open the recovery mode just download mode is available but when you try to flash with odin it isnt rebooting. How can i do about that i dont know.
Is there anyone have an idea ?

Finally after one month of waiting I got my Galaxy W back!
I made use of my warranty and Samsung replaced the mainboard.
But it took very long (4 weeks) / Maybe because of galaxy s3 problems or something..
@Aesir77
Use ODIN to reflash original firmare, although it won't reboot it is flashed.
After that you can make use of or warranty and bring it back to the store where u bought it (Thats what I did and it was EXACTLY the same problem)
Good luck mate!

Note 2 stuck on bootscreen - Need help please :(

Hello,
I have a very strange problem with my Note 2.... Yesterday i checked mails on my Note 2 when it suddenly shut down and rebooted.
First i didnt think it was a big issue but when it was on login screen where i have to enter my PIN i just touched the screen and it shut down again. Same thing happened again after that. Now it doesnt even boot up anymore... It just stays on Samsung bootscreen all the time. I can get into Download mode but not into recovery for some reason. I had no custom rom or anything else installed on my device. It was completely Stock.
I already tried flashing the firmware again via Odin but without any success....
Now i don't know what to do anymore and hope one of you guys can help me get back into my phone as i don't want to lose the data on it
Thank you in advance
Best regards

Try doing a data/factory reset and wipe cache in recovery, you`ll loose the data though. But it is the only way imo.

Then you have to take it to a samsung service center or the store for repair mate.
Anyone else with an Idea? What i also think is strange is that it says in Download mode that i downloaded 5 Custom Roms and my Current Binary and System Status are Custom???? I just installed the official firmware from SamMobile again -.-
Noone able to help me? I'm going insane at the moment cause nothing works.... Even when i plug in the usb cable the phone boots to the Galaxy Note 2 screen and nothing else happens.... In download modus it says i'm on a custom rom what i never installed to begin with....i only installed Stock Rom.... Please help what should i do T_T
So now i flashed the Rescue Rom but it did not change anything. Odin completed the flashing without errors though nothing changed. Also tried flashing Stock Firmware again but the status in download mode still shows custom system and binary.... Could it be that Odin is not flashing correctly though it is not giving me any errors?
I'm really desperate at the moment -.-
My galaxy s1 was bricked at one stage. I took the battery out and left it for am hour then I got it to boot into download mode. Are you putting the right rom on it? Like a whole factory rom?
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app
Yes already tried Stock Rom and also the rescue rom.... nothing changed
Can you flash CWM onto it? Then turn it off., hold down volume up, home and then power Tool you see Samsung logo?
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app
Already tried root with CWM but it won't go into recovery either. I also tried flashing the rescue rom with Pit-File but it does not go further than bootscreen. At the moment i really don't know whats wrong with the phone and i'm a bit desperate right now....
Isn't there anybody who's able to help me with this, please?

Boot screen stuck
Hi TS,
U need to first let us know which variant of the note 2 u are using.
is u want to solve the bootloop issue,u need to follow these step as posted by someone here:
1. flash CWM using odin,then boot into CWM(power+vol up+that centre button) then wipe dalvik> cache partition > then data reset
2.DL sammy's official firmware for your note variant (7105 or 7100 or whatever)
3.flash sammy's firmware thru odin
4.let phone boot into android
then do whatever you need to do.
I had the same prob at you did,followed that guy's advice and not everything is back to factory and i can send it in for warranty.

[Q] An Assortment of Difficulties (I Used Search + Recovery Methods)

Problem now is that its stuck in a boot loop and I've tried and succeeded at flashing the stock rom through odin on windows 7.
Rom starts up occasionally but does not stay stable no matter what rom I flash and just goes back in to a boot loop.
Power button doesn't seem to be stuck.
If anyone can guide me to a solution I will reward them with $5 via paypal.
Have you tried to load the drivers separately (meaning not using the toolbox method)? I have used Windows 8 without any problem, but I didn't use the toolbox. I used Odin. Worked like a charm.
did you wipe cache/dalvik and fix permissions after that install of the 4.1.2 gapps? have you tried odin?? and correct me if im wrong you can boot your phone up but when you get to the home screen you get a bunch of force close? gapps wouldnt and shouldnt soft brick you ??
I'm stuck in a boot loop no matter what rom I flash. I've flashed stock with oden, flashed jedi5 with the stock telus kernal and TWRP and clockworkmod...
I've tried redownloading the stock rom multiple times and I even setup another comp to use windows 7 again.
Yes I have tried oden as well.
I have no idea what to do
Do you get any errors in Odin what r u flashing does it finish if all is failing for you sounds like a sticky power button try fiddling with it with out breaking it your phone should be booting up with all those steps you have performed if Odin doesn't return you to stock and still can't boot something is wrong in deed try and bypass all those errors go Into settings and factory reset then reboot

I'm flashing the stock koodo/telus rom and I have wiped everything multiple times.
I dont think its a stuck power button as it still clicks when i push it.
so again... question ??? is ODIN failing what errors are you getting kinda hard with out much detail ODIN will always restore and if it doesnt then it will give some error...... and you are kind of confusing me bro you can boot to a ROM but its all broken and you can boot into CWM but cant flash anything ?? have you tried flashing TWRP in odin and try to flash a proper ROM again?

It "succeeds" with that green background.
I can boot in to the rom occasionally and everything is perfect but then it crashes and goes in to a boot loop.
And yes I have tried TWRP and flashed Jedi5 after wiping everything in TWRP.
so whats crashing do you get process.core force close /...system.ui stoped working or literally you are doing something on your phone and then BOOM its in a boot loop i know your not new to flashing just trying to really pin point whats really going on here bro its sucks that you are having this issue is this the only ROM you are having this issue with the miui and now the jedi? do you have any tweaks installed build prop edit any special configuration ??

Nothing special is flashed on and its purely just stock. Crashes are just instant with no error. No tweaks or anything and I've tried with the stock recovery, twrp, and cwm. (All recent updates)
Try the dark side wipe. Then flash your ROM. Only use it in twrp tho cuz it can break cwm6+

Just tried that... And I think it ended up just being my power button being stuck down or something?
When I got to the rom this time it popped up with a do you want to restart popup.
I'll report back after some testing.

You have no idea how pissed off I am... >_> I bought a nexus 4 to replace my phone and....
the power button was stuck the entire time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0xMMn1DRWs

[Q] N7100 Boot Loop + Stuck at Samsung word

Hello everyone! This is my first post here, actually ive been here just for stalking and follow tutorials. this forum is the best for me and helped me a lot. But, 2 days ago, I got an issue that cant be solved by me by refering threads. So I decided to register to forum, and ask by myself.
Here's the problem.
"There has been sudden booting while I was using Facebook on my device, while I reboot it, it stuck at "Samsung Galaxy Note II -GTN7100" after a while, it reboot again. It happened suddently. It happens continously untill now. It has been 2 days I search through the forum but none can help me."
My device details while the problem occur :
ROM : Paranoid Android 3.99 RC2
Recovery : TWRP 2.6.3.0
kernel : stock
and my device can turn into download mode, and TWRP. but only cant boot into ROM.
I did try to flash many ROM via TWRP. And do fresh format.(Clean evrything via TWRP). Install various ROM and it seemed cant help to boot into the ROM.
I also try to flash stock from SAM, via Odin, but it helpless.
I also discovered that is not the power button issue, as i can boot into recovery without restarting by itself. So I think it is not about the power button.
I tried to use other recovery, and flash CWM via Odin, but cant get to CWM recovery mode. I also tried to flash stock recovery, but same as CWM. Only TWRP is working on my phone.
I searched thorugh the forum, and many ask to do factory reset, but it helpless for me.
Thanks everyone for any suggestion! and dont ask me to go to Samsung centre as my device warranty is expired.:cyclops:

well flash this http://d-h.st/fWr and try install any custom rom and get back with the result
and what about philz recovery that does not work even http://d-h.st/iII
Try flash cf-auto root through odin. Usually the phone will successfully booting after the auto root process done.

well it seems its time to it to service guys it should have booted fine or maybe the pit partition damaged is not letting it boot

flash pit partition http://d-h.st/Dlv,then flash the firmware stock
I read through the thread and was about to say what the above poster suggested. Make sure you tick repartition in Odin when you've input the pit file.

Hello everybody.... I assumed that this topic now shall be closed since I sadly solved it.
The solution :
After trying stock ROM and cant enter stock recovery, I tried many official rom 4.1.2 and many custom rom, but nothing can help.
So I decided to go to Samsung centre, then they tried to flash with their own odin, so the same thing happened. After a few checkings, ive been told that my motherboard got problem. So I need to change a new motherboard but I dont want.
So, i decided to buy a brand new phone that same price as the new motherboard =.= .... Thanks to all that trying to help me especially mr Ankit.. Many2 thanks and i appreciate it.. Taking 3 days without sleeping to figure it out seems helpless..
If there are any possible solution, please share to me since Im still following this thread..

Continuing from my above post, I also faced the same situation...Samsung service center guys told me that my motherboard needs to be replaced and it would cost Indian Rs.7400/-, so I am going ahead with the replacement, as now also a new note 2 costs min. Rs.22k in India. And at the Rs.7500/- price point even the new 'Android One' phones launched by Google are no where near to the punch packed by Note 2.
Hope this post helps other beleaguered souls like me.

Pity, mate- but I think motherboard change will in fact provide you a new phone. Samsung has used some third party components that have not been so reliable. New motherboard will have aproven components.

You can flash Philz Recovery to get rid of the "Kies Recovery" screen. I have the same exact problem, and I can't solve it so far. Been trying to fix it for the past 7 hours.
----
Edit:
I fixed it! Once you flash Philz Recovery, factory wipe the phone, and delete dalvik cache. Once that is done, flash the ROM you wanted to install through Philz Recovery, and the Samsung Galaxy S4 logo will load up (with the error on top left) then the rom will load up right after. I hope this works!

You can flash Philz Recovery to get rid of the "Kies Recovery" screen. I have the same exact problem, and I can't solve it so far. Been trying to fix it for the past 7 hours.

I've had NB4 for a while now, none of that changed. I have data just fine but the phone app freezes for a really long time and then reboots the phone. Plus the whole phone is insanely slow now. Aaaannnnd now I have a knox counter and am sad I might just try to sell this to someone on XDA who might think they can bring it back to life. It turns on, it has data just fine and a fast signal but the phone is so slow it can't keep up...

Soft-bricked? Odin passes but still stuck on loadup

AT & T Galaxy Note 2 SGH-13I7
So I'm at a loss on what to do with my phone at this point..
Everything was running great until yesterday, I attempted to root it, the root attempt was unsuccesful but the phone still worked just fine and It even got shut off and turned on a few times after the failed attempt. But one time it froze up after installing an app and after that the phone got stuck on the boot screen.
So this morning I flashed the stock 4.1.2 Rom and it worked again, then I updated the phone on the device itself. OTA is what you would call it I believe. And now I'm back to where I started. The phone gets stuck on the galaxy note 2 loading screen and it wont start.
I cannot enter recovery mode in order to wipe the settings and clear the cache.
I can enter download mode however, and my attempts at flashing the stock firmware PASS on Odin but the phone only gets stuck on the loading screen again afterwards
Does anyone know what I should do?
Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch
Is there any way I might be able to enter a recovery mode using an micro SD card?
To which rom you updated? Know that from newest version there is no going back.

Edit : there's a way(maybe) to get to download mode. But not sure if it will work on your phone. There is a thing called jig kick USB. You can build one yourself.

Thats probably my problem then. I was running 4.3 and the stock firmware I installed was 4.1.
Is jig kick USB used to get into download mode, if thats the case then I am already able to do that. Just not get into recovery mode.
Yes I noticed later that you can access download mode. So try to flash the rom you updated to but for your carier as your phone is from at&t you should use their rom. I don't have carrier phone so I speak theoretically. But I guess you understand what I mean.

I just got the AT & T ROM from sammobile and flashed it with Odin, it says it passes, but once the phone reboots it just gets stuck on the loading screen again
Thanks for your help by the way

mine is the same n7105, so how did this go, did it worked?
mine n7105 says passed and once rebooted don't pass n7105 logo, i can only enter download mode,
I'm having the exact same issue, 7100 Sprint. Odin flashes pass but still stuck on SGNII screen, can't flash recovery or ROM. Had 4.1.2 and accepted OTA mistakenly.
I literally just had this problem with my SGH-I317 and fixed it with this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2589891 go down to where it says "If you are running the official *MK6* firmware"
ive had something similar. had odin pass. no cwm / twrp access only stock recovery and stock downloader mode.
you need to flash a stock rom to get it back, then boot into it. connect pc. (a different usb port sometimes) get ODIN to reboot it into downloader mode. I had major problems getting to that point. but got it from flashing a stock rom. I have also had this old CM10 rom that fix's all partitions etc. i cant remember the name of it now.
a couple of times ive had issues getting into custom recovery. when you hold power +vol up + home key. when u do keep holding power. it loops boot and loops back again. when u release. make sure you hold power for like 1-2 seconds on logo. dont release power button before logo appears. wait a second after it appears. get it every time now.
Try to flash latest TWRP trough ODIN and check if you can boot in to recovery after that.
