[Q] Galaxy S III - Stuck at Boot Screen - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

So two nights ago I did the Samsung 4.3 update, but while it was updating, I accidentally hit the volume key and the installation was canceled. After that, the system rebooted and it's been stuck at the samsung logo boot screen since. I have already done a factory reset, cleared cache, cleared Dalvik cache. I can't get it to work though. This is a rooted phone.

As long as you can still get into download mode and you were attempting to install CNexus' MK3 update, you should be ok. You could just download the MD4 stock tar from any of the links and install it thru Odin. That should get you back to where you left off.

[Q] help please. possibly corrupted efs?

ok so heres what happened. this morning my phone started behaving weirdly. then it restarted and got stuck in a boot loop. I was running the newest aokp release. after the boot loop i restarted to recovery, i was using the team win one. i wiped cache and dalvik and restarted...still only to boot loop. next i tried factory wiping and reinstalling rom. still same thing, only then i couldnt clear the cache. if i tried it would just reboot.
on lunch break i figured id just odin back to stock. after playing with it a few times i got it to flash the stock back. after it rebooted the first time it went into recovery to clear the caches like it should but there was a red message saying cant locate efs or something. there was about 4 lines in red saying pretty much the same thing. and it said manual mode at the bottom.
ive tried wiping caches and restarting a number of times. I fallowed both the guides from the development section and from the general section. so i currently have the stock ics odined on the phone. it will boot to the rom and start. made it through the upgrading android part then once it gets to the home screen it will sit for a minute then reboot again and just boot loop. i can clear cache and make it boot back up but it just restarts after a few secondds.
please anyone know what to do? this is my second gs2.

Have to full wipe after every reboot?

I have been running jedi master x2 on my devise since i got it a few months back. I had a few issues with apps having unfortunately (random app) has stopped errors so I decided to re flash with full wipe and completely clean install. Now after I reboot it gets stuck on the Samsung note2 splash screen and I have to do a full wipe and fix root in order to get it to boot again, only to have to do the same after a reboot? Does anyone have any suggestions?

Bootloop, starting apps is making me mad

My Samsung nexus got a problem. I have TWRP installed as recovery and I tried to install new Cyanogen ROM. I did it clean but it get stuck in "Starting App" for long likely for 2 hrs then I restarted the system just to stuck in boot loop. I did fresh install wiping data and cache as well dalvik cache but the same problem. Before the phone was working fine except the camera. Camera has stopped working issue. Is this the problem for this?
Moreover, I tried to connect to ODIN but my phone is not read by Odin. What is the solution?
The worst thing is I don't have any backup.

Razer Phone stuck in bootloop

I tried to update to the latest update to the Razer Phone and was able to install it successfully, but when I went to install Magisk on the new update, it caused the Wifi to stop working. For that reason, I tried to restore my old TWRP backup I made prior to updating which everything was working before updating. I wiped cache, dalvik, data and system and restored my old backup. Now when I try to boot, it gets stuck at the Razer logo and doesn't get past that. I also tried wiping data and restoring the system image only to no avail and it didn't do anything.
Have you tried booting to TWRP and booting The other [email protected]
How long did you wait on the Razer logo.. When I reset my phone after relocking it.. It took 10+min for first boot. I was scared it wasn't gonna work but I just left it alone and it eventually booted itself up

Thanks. I'll try that and see if it works. But I let it sit for 5 or so minutes.
Edit: I'll go ahead and add it was stuck at the Razer logo. It never got to the actual boot animation.
Edit 2: I let it sit for 20+ minutes and it wouldn't boot or get past the Razer logo.

Yes I've tried switching slots and it didn't work.
Any luck with the stuck at logo screen? I followed instructions from Razer and fkashall and now it won't boot to recovery download or system . It just hangs at the logo screen for better part of 2 hours now so it's not a waiting game .. any luck in fixing yours?
hi there, same here after flashing google pixel experience on razer phone1. seems to be a general problem for many users. Any hints?
Best regards

I have the same problem, but I wasn't updating or installed any new app. I was just ordering food from an app and then all of a sudden my phone restared and got stuck in a bootloop.
I reflashed the stock rom, over and over, slot a or slot b, hoping that would fix it somehow... it's just stuck there now. I could go into download mode and recovery mode. but, it's only until there.
now it's bootloop until it gets into download mode...

I could fix it. After flashing (even Android Pi) you have to do a factory reset.
IMPORTANT: THE FACTORY RESET IN TWRP DOES NOT WORK. So you have to flash the boot-sector in your system partition with the stock boot.img and reset to STOCK RECOVERY by typing "fastboot reboot" and pressing the vol-up button. Once in stock recovery, do a factory reset and return to bootloader. Now you can flash the boot.partition with twrp boot.img, install in recovery the stock boot.img, install the twrp-installer.zip and reboot to system. The bootlogo will not stuck anymore.
I hope, I could help you. Do not forget to backup before trying.
Best regards

Question Samsung stuck on Samsung Galaxy opening logo

Yesterday, I scheduled my phone to update the new software at 2.00 A.M then left it charging. When I woke up, it was stuck on the Samsung rebooting logo. I can enter recovery mode.
Tried soft reset, wipe cache but doesn't open
I guess if I can update it manually via PC, it will be okay. But I don't know how to do it without losing my data. (I have very important photos and vidos)
I have never downloaded any unoriginal system update

Since you've never done it and you have very important data, ask someone who knows how to do it. You will need a single-file for odin.
Happened to my A225F when I updated to Android 13.
I pressed power button for about 30 seconds and it restarted. Went through optimizing applications screen and...voilá, came back to normal.
isn't that normal in samsung phones? I still can't believe people still choose that brand

The brand doesn't matter. You need to be able to choose the right model.
