Boas. I installed a rom but at first did not even read the part where it says that the 1st boot may take between 2 to 3 hours, so badly spent 15min I found it strange the delay and hung up the equipment.
Now every time I start it says "Sony" and is always so.
They think they did something wrong or do I have to wait for those 3 hours?
What can I do to resolve this?
It's that I can not get into Recovery.

What rom have you tried to flash?(pls add the threadlink) Have you unlocked your bootloader?

If you have a locked bootloader, you'll need to reflash stock rom using flashtool. If you want to discuss this in portuguese send me a PM.

i'm kind of gun shy to flash my new tp2 since i bricked my old 8525. the first two flashes worked great then the last rom bricked my phone and doesnt get out of the loading screan. So i dont know if I got a bad rom or if i did something else? Any suggestions
I thought that as long as you don't flash the boot you can reflash?
I did a flash from SD-card since the device won't connect to my PC anymore
Did you flash HardSPL first?

Yes I can get to the boatloader screen but i cant get a pc connection and it just says analyzing and then it turns off after like 15 min.
If you're stuck at bootloader then use SD flash method to re-flash a rom.
Hi,
I am new to all this flashing etc . . . Anyway, i have installed Android 2.1 and followed all the neccessary steps. However, when i power my phone on it goes through 3 boot up screens then hangs on a black screen saying HTC, it has been like this for 20 minutes.
Should it take this logn and i am over reacting, or is there something else i need to do?
Cheers

if it really has been 20 mins or more, then take the battery out (and back in) and reboot and see if that works.
Then get back to us on what happens.
Hi, thanks for the quick reply, i ahve tried what you said 3 times, and no luck, this time it has been hanging about 9 minutes.
Open ddms (if the android tools is in your path), and/or post a logcat
What ROM did you try installing?
Im installing Villain 5.2.
And the rest of what you said comletely boggled my mind, i didnt understand a word of it lol.
I have just wiped and reinstalled the ROM, i have powered it on, currently been hanging 2 minutes.
Have you tried booting without the memory card in?

No problem
My daughters HTC Desire (not rooted) seems to have given up.
When I boot it just rendering the "Quietly brilliant" takes around 10-15 seconds. And then after several minutes the boot up sound is played. Then a while later the battery is displayed and the "Connect your charger" text. Even though the charger is connected. I cannot swipe down to unlock the phone as it just sits there. Eventually rebooting.
I have managed to get into recovery but trying to do a factory reset there has left the phone displaying the blue/purple recovery screen for two whole days without doing anything. Just clearing the cache through recovery took around four hours.
Has anyone seen anything similar? Or can the phone just as well be thrown in the bin?
I worry that this could be hardware issue if the battery doesn't seem to know it's charging and it's that slow without rooting.
Last resort would be to try to flash 2.3.3. RUU as PB99IMG.zip

I wouldn't even know how to flash it. Is it from recovery? Using adb sideload or something? Do you know the adb command of the top of your head? Also I would assume this requires HTC Desire drivers installed. If this can be done without the phone having to identify itself then maybe there's a chance

Tried this and it went okay... sort of... The actual update went fine. Took about a minute or two. There has not been any problems with booting into bootloader or recovery. The only think it complained about was that it was unable to downgrade the bootloader and skipped that step.
But other than that it behaves as it did before the update. After a while I get the "quietly brilliant" (that actually renders in normal speed now) but after that (and a five minute wait) I'm stuck with the "no service" screen. After an additional couple of minutes I get the "Connect your charger" and after that it's all black
I guess I might as well toss it but I'm intrigued by the fact that flashing the zip is done in what I assume is "normal" speed. Everything else is dead slow...

The RUU should be 'clean'
Therefore if it's still playing up, as suspected sounds like hardware fault . On such an old phone, personally probably not worth the hassle anymore
I have a very strange problem with this device (g920p), Backstory: i got it with the screen broked so i replaced it. There was no problem until the sound stopped working. I pressed vol - and power button but it never came to life.
What i did / Result:
Hard Reset (wipe cache and data, cache partition). / Same status Softbricked
Installed custom recovery and wiped out caches dalvik. / Still Bricked
Download and installed stock ROMS: CPD2, CPB6 (6.0.1) / After the odin procedure, it reboots and then it updates system, later says "optimizing apps" and when finish the phone stucks at "Starting Apps" (for hours) and it never starts. If i reboot it, after the samsung logo it just shows blue light blinking but the screen stays black.
I have downgraded to almost all 5.1.1 ROMS / Same result as above.
I have installed almost all ROMS after wipes (with stock recovery and custom) / no sucess.
I have tried to recover it with Smart Swich but i cant get the s/n, barcodes only shows MEID but no serial.
I have left the battery die then i do all the previuos trys with no sucess, i can just get to "Android is Upgrading - starting apps" screen.
I have tried installing custom kernels after rom installs / NO luck.
Safemode does nothing.
Any clues to get my s6 back to life?
If it's the 32gb version, I recommend flashing the pit file found in the general section.

You need to make sure you are flashing the proper stuff. You can't just go throwing random sh*t at it.
This is the proper PIT for your device: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24499762636008230
If you were to look through the thread, specifically the general section, as I mentioned, you would have found it
Flash the PIT file by selecting "PIT" inside odin and NOTHING else. Then reboot and flash the stock tar.

Thanks a lot, i did look for it and found the other one. After flashing the PIT i flashed the .tar (CPB6) and the result was the same, blackscreen with blue light dimming intermitent. This time the "optimizing apps screen" didnt show up. i havent touched the device yet, im waiting for the optimization screen to show up. Im waiting 30min if it doesnt works im gonna reboot the device and do the wipes and reboot.

Let it die completely. Once it dies attempt to boot into download mode until it wont anymore (completely dead), charge to about 15%, reboot. Should be fixed. If not retry. What happened I think is the minute reboot with no signal/baseband/imei etc., except you flashed a rom or something to try to fix it so now it appears to bootloop but really is doing the same minute automatic reboot no signal issue. I had same happen to me when i flashed a rom trying to fix it, it "bootlooped", but being the first boot taking the standard additional time it never made it to the full boot up, until letting it die, then all was good. Nothing else is needed except complete drain of battery

Thank you im gonna try this for sure. I have worked all day long with this device. and i am not giving up until it totally die or work.
UPDATE (Battery not drained yet):
I realized about some things when i flash the stock rom, after odin finish the phone shows a screen that says "updating system" a progress bar loads but only reaches to 32% then says Erasing and reboots, then just hangs at "starting apps" screen.
Same result as previous ones. Stucked at "Starting Apps". After the flash .pit file, i flash the .tar, then when finish the devices reboots and the screen shows a progress bar that reads "Installing system update" but it only reaches to 32%.
That is odd. Did the sound ever come back? Maybe it has something to do with the hardware fix. Wherever you got the replacement from were there any reviews that may indicate others having similar issues or contacting whoever u got it from? If the sound stopped working and then you reset it and etc and now its not booting fully up maybe it does some type of hardware check and reboots if and when it fails.. idk truthfully, if it were me Id go back to looking at the screen replacement
i'll try doing all the previous steps but with the original screen. i'll update the post ASAP
My g920p got exactly the same problem. It die for 2 weeks. I try every thing i can but it can't get out of "starting apps". So i place it in my desk until today i boot it up and actually, it start. Still have no sound, but when it check for update and i press update now, the "starting apps" loop show up. Have you fixed your phone yet?
Sorry for my bad English.
It looks like you really did a number on it!
Good Luck!

Samsung S6- G920P impossible to Fix
Had same problems with my G920P and nobody even replied to my cry for help....thanks guys! No really,without help i had to learn the hard way. Anyways, I flashed the Pit file then flashed a boot file, then a modem file, then last but not least the complete Home tar. Let me know if this works for you. According to my G920P it took me 48 days, and very long nights to get it back up and running. Hard bricked a Galaxy S7 in the process........next project i guess!

Hello!
I purchased a Galaxy S6 two days ago and have yet to really use it...
I wanted to have a fully fresh phone so i flashed the latest firmware available to me (USA, Sprint, sm-g920p, zerofltespr, QB1)
Everything flashed as normal (not my first S6, I'm familiar with ODIN) but upon booting up the first time it goes to a blue screen that says initializing update.. then the progress bar goes to 32% and then says erasing.. then it reboots and i get to optimizing apps (starts at some random number 8 of 33, 13of 33, 12 of 33, etc.) and then reboots and goes back to optimizing apps again... it's maddening!!!
I've tried at least 5 different firmwares, all with the same result. Always to 32% then bootloop on optimizing apps
I've tried using the PIT file for my phone along with flashing the firmwares, same result
When i try to enter recovery to wipe cache or factory reset, i get the blue screen that says initializing update then i get some yellow exclamtion warning for a second and i get to recovery... i wipe cache, reboot... same boot loop result
Back to recovery, factory reset, reboot... same boot loop result trying to optimize apps.
I've tried adb sideloading a couple different ROMS but those just bootloop at the Galaxy S6 logo splash screen.
I've run out of ideas for what to do to fix this.. every great once in awhile ill get to the welcome screen and itll get to Setting up your device for first time use... then itll just reboot and go right back to that screen... i havent been passed that once...
Please any ideas would really be great. Thanks

If you get this going, please send me (or post here via file attach) the file: /proc/last_kmsg -- you need to be rooted to get that so hopefully you are. To get this right, you need to copy that file to /sdcard (or somewhere there) and only on the first successful boot.
I want to see what is complaining so I can (hopefully) write a fix for future sufferers that won't require the reboot til dead game.
