So, my wife's phone is having issues with her camera on every ROM I have tried with her. It starts our working find and then out of nowhere it throws the cannot connect to camera thing pops up. I have to reset the phone in order to get it working again. I have done a complete wipe, format system, data, and cache then fix permissions. I have also tried the other apk's out there. they always end up with the same result. I was wondering if anyone had any tips on how to correct this. I was thinking about going back to stock and re rooting but wanted to exhaust other options before doing that. Thanks in advance
Hey guys,
I know there are a few threads like this, but its probably easier if i explain what I done and how it happened sort of thing.
Basically I had a phone upgrade from my Note 2 and got a Samsung Galaxy S5... So now I want to sell my Note 2 which was ROOTED, but still had the Stock ROM installed as I just wanted it rooted for apps like Greenify, etc.
Anyway, so it was a fresh phone I did a Factory Wipe/Clean from the recovery (its the purple gradient one, might be TWRP) and then I wiped the cache.
all was fine, but i noticed after the phone reset there was still some of my apps and documents on the phone, so I did a Factory Reset through the phone software itself ("Backup and Reset") in the settings menu.
Anyway, now it is stuck in a bootloop and I have no clue what to do, please help as it is money down the drain otherwise.
Many Thanks in advance.
So, this is my first Samsung device, longtime HTC user. I was cocky and thought I could go ahead and delete system apps that I thought were safe to delete. Apparently, I was sorely mistaken.
I am now caught in a bootloop. Luckily for me, I can get into the system and do a few things before it reboots. I was unable to fing factory images for the s6 edge, so, I have another idea, but I need someone's help.
I was thinking if someone could make a backup using titanium backup of all their system apps and share it with me, I would attempt to run the restore option in TiBu to remedy the issue. If anyone could do this, or has a better idea, let me know. Thanks in advance, and I apologize for needing something so trivial (smh).
if you can get into the settings menu and do a factory reset, that would fix it..
also, try calling t mobile, and ask tech support how you can boot into recovery, and there should also be a factory reset choice in there..

I've done that, the phone simply reboots itself. When I try to boot into recovery, I don't get that distorted green/white screen everyone else does, it flashes real quick then goes dark, nothing more. I've tried the vol- 4 times, power, vol- 7 times power, wait, power combo as well, it does not factory reset my device.
I would still call t mobile and ask them how to actually boot into recovery.
There has to be a way to do it; I would turn the phone off completely, then boot into recovery using the method t mobile suggests..

I really appreciate your help in trying to get me into recovery, but I have tried everything. I've done the release after the buttons stop blinking, don't release until you see blue text (which I never do, there is never blue text at the top of my screen). I also work for T-Mobile, I have access to the files customer care would read you if you called in. I am at work right now lol.
Honestly, all I need is a zipped titanium backup of system apps (just the app, no data) that I can get onto the phone and try and restore.
I don't mean to sound rude, but this isn't my first rodeo. I've been attempting to get a logcat to identify which error is causing the device to crash so I can ask for just that one app (I can't get the log though, always hangs on waiting for device, even though I can execute other adb commands). All I need is that TiBu copy.
Edit: Wow, I finally got it to factory reset. I'm not sure why it didn't work before. I tried the same thing countless times with no success, but I finally got it.
Again, I apologize if I sounded rude earlier. I really didn't mean to be.
not rude at all bro, as you know, there are so many different levels of "knowledge" here, that I try to use the lowest common denominator when helping folks out, but you obviously know what you are doing!
Glad to hear you got to factory reset menu; that should fix you right back up!:good:
I was in the same boat as you. Rooted, removed system apps, got back to Recovery Screen, but a Factory Restore did not bring back the apps that were removed. Tried Kies, but it would not work last night. As of this afternoon, Kies will now work. Just did it a few minutes ago.
Use the "Firmware Upgrade and Initialization" option. You'll need the Model Name and Serial Number, both of which can be found on the Box, or in the Settings menu if you can get there.
Monring all,
Long story short, I stupidly set my DPI way too high on my phone and now the phone is stuck in the bootloop, I have tried going into recovery and wiping the data and deleting the cache. My pc wont recognise the phone so I cant reflash. I have spoken to the company who want me to send the phone to Poland at my expense and it may take 1.5 months to sort but with a custom ROM installed in assuming they wont touch it anyway.
Im gutted, I really like the phone and want to get it back up and running.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ok, so... This is a Galaxy S, 10.5". The T800. I'm running Resurrection OS: the Luis build or whatever. The one with the dog. I attempted to encrypt this thing with the built-in tool. From Settings. I tried and probably failed. I checked on my tablet a few hours later and found it stuck on the boot screen: spinny colors, all that. It never reached the end.
I rebooted into TWRP, and that worked fine. I checked to see if I could access the file manager, and I could. I could peer into various directories on the Data partition and see the files there. So I figure that's a good sign. I figured, I'll wipe the cache and the dalvik cache. That's good for what ails ya. No help. I found some recommendation about using TWRP to repair the data partition, so I tried that. No difference. I tried to boot into Safe Mood, but the key code didn't seem to make any difference either. No good.
So, any suggestions? There wasn't anything essential on there that couldn't reasonably be gotten back. I know I could just wipe... everything and start anew, but it would be a pain in the neck, pardon my French. I'd have to download and reinstall everything. If there's a quick way to get this thing back to normal without that hassle, I'd appreciate it.
If it failed,i fear your app data,information,etc might not work normal y any more?Just get to twrp,plug your usb and get your file,etc back.
Would it help if I provided a logcat?

Even if I have to just wipe and start over, I want to know what the heck was going on!
