I have been using the i747z ROMs for quite some time and after trying a bunch of other ROMs I always reverted back to theirs. So when their 3.0 version came out with Android 4.3 I installed it, using ClockWorkMod recovery. Right after it installed, CWM displayed a message about the boot loader and to fix it. So I went ahead and did that (Don't really remember what the message was) What I know is that I lost root. Also the phone could not connect to the mobile network, only on Wifi. So this morning, I factory reset the phone again, and attempted to root the phone with Odin with CF-Auto-Root-d2att-d2uc-samsungsghi747 (which I had used when I first rooted the phone). Now the phone doesn't boot past the 2nd samsung logo, it starts out with the Samsung logo with the blue circle around it, then the AT&T Rethink Possible and then the plain white Samsung logo. Also, the LED has a slow blue flicker.
I can get the phone into download mode and I have used Odin to attempt to load the stock firmware and the stock bootloader. But after restarting the phone I can't get past the same screen described above.
I am pretty sure this is not related to the i747z v3.0 ROM but rather something a miss with the order in which things need to start in Android. I have done some reading on that but I am not sure what I need to do to correct this soft brick situation. ( I have googled "soft brick" as well)
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

After flashing through odin did you format data?If not try it.
Go into recovery and wipe data.
**SOLVED**
Thanks xXFl4sh, I had tried that.
Solved!
Alright where do I start? How about RTFM Some how I had missed the part about flashing a bootloader and a modem after the ROM. Not recalling having to do that before, I skipped right over it. Once the recovery CWM 6.0.3.1 was finally loaded, getting the flashing the ROM, the bootloader and the modem was easy as usual.
The key was having to use Odin to install a recovery in .tar or .tar.md5 format since I could not access a Recovery Mode on the GS3, as well as a rooted stock image (I used root66_ATT_I747UCDLK3.tar.md5 which is a rooted Android 4.1.1 for AT&T) For the recovery, I couldnt' find a .tar or .tar.md5 for ClockWorkMod (did find a utility to convert it, but didn't want to introduce another variable into the mix) so I used one from Team Win Recovery (v2.6.3.0) and with that I loaded the CWM recovery. Once all of that was in place, I proceed to factory reset, clear data, cache, system and then flash the new ROM, bootloader and modem.
In all of this I learned quite a bit about the whole process and how to narrow down possible resolutions. I still see the "Rom may flash stock recovery on boot" message after flashing either a ROM, bootloader or modem, but just backing out without answering Yes or No seems to work. Also (and this may be related, I don't see the option to restart in recovery from shutdown menu). Don't really know what that's all about for now, and honestly don't want to mess around (at least for a while)
I know the steps are general, but I hope this can help some else if they get their devices in a soft brick situation. As for the i747z v3 ROM with 4.3, I really like it, everything works (Wifi,Blutooth,tethering) and the battery seems good as well.
Thanks!
I just installed the bump'd TWRP and CM12 on my G3. I'm trying to encrypt it, since I need it that way for my work email/calendar, but I'm running into a problem with it.
I charge the phone fully and plug it in as required, then go to Settings/Security/Encrypt Phone. I enter my PIN and start the process, but all it does is flash the green android on a black background with what looks like a gear in the middle of it, then goes straight to the Cyanogen boot splash screen, where it sticks until I pull the battery to restart it.
Has anyone else had this problem? Or, does anyone have an idea of what I might be able to try?

I am having the same problem. Unfortunately, I have not gotten any answer. Sorry I couldn't help, but at least we're not alone.
same here, have had same issue with multiple dailies. do you think this is with twrp or cm12?
I've managed, with the latest CM12.1, to encrypt my LG G3 (d855)....However...TWRP cannot decrypt the partitions so you cannot flash anymore updates until TWRP is updated....

How did you do it? I've tried to encrypt with 27/08/2015 nightly and I couldn't. It said encryption failed and I had to wipe it.
I'm using the 26/08 (UK date format) build - This is the one that broke Chrome. I just encrypted the phone using the settings. I've been trying every couple of weeks for sometime. In the past I get the CM logo and nothing happens. If I remove the battery then the phone boots OK...so clearly the encryption hadn't started. This time I left it and walked away. 30 mins later I went back to the phone and it was prompting for the encryption password after boot....So all good for me....except TWRP cannot decrypt the encrypted partitions...
I am using the D855 model.
I'm having similar issues. I was able to encrypt after installing the Resurrection Remix v5.5.5 but now TWRP shows internal storage as 0mb and throws out a bunch of mount errors. So can't backup or load anything new through TWRP now.
The only way I was able to change ROMs was to flash the stock ROM through the LG flashtool, thereby unrooting the phone and then starting the whole process from scratch. It's a big pain because everytime I do that I need to get admin approval to setup my work email and then need to encrypt again , which locks me into the existing ROM again!
Ughh!! Can't wait for a solution top this problem.
Hi guys,
(Samsung S4 Mini GT-i9190)
I could really use some help.
I have been searching all over and perhaps I'm not understanding what is being said so if it sounds familiar and there is a solution then i'm thankful.
So about a week ago, the phone came back from repairs and had the motherboard replaced after the phone was washed by accident. Nonetheless, there hasn't been any hardware defects besides signal loss now and then.
When the phone came back, it had 4.2.2 and it automatically picked up the update to 4.4.2 which I did. The phone worked fine until 2 days ago, where it just stuck at the Samsung galaxy gt-i9190 screen and just freezes there.
I can boot into a custom recovery (Philz) (not stock recovery for some reason) and download mode. I then attempted to install CM 11.0 as I got frustrated. It worked, booted past animated logo and install the apps until i came to the language section where the touchscreen which didn't work (unresponsive). I then reverted back to the stock ROM found at sammobile (i9190xxxCOD2XFA - South Africa), loaded the custom recovery and still no booting past the first screen. The custom recovery touchscreen (Philz) is also non responsive (besides using the volume keys, home button and power for navigation).
I flashed a couple of times, nothing works.
Is there a root cause to these issues? The unresponsive screen, not booting properly?
Some info: KNOX is voided 0x1
Please help!! Thank you in advance
It's not „root“ that cause your problem. You should have to choose right recovery for your model. Flash back to original ROM and look for one of fully supported custom ROM here on the XDA and fallow all steps how to flash it properly. Succes ! Cheers !
Alright, I'll try that. What I did in the meantime was flash, Slimkat 4.4.4 UNOFFICIAL rom for I9190 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708677).
The rom booted into the andoird system but the touchscreen is still unresponsive.
@Boombastical .. If you can help me by giving me a guide in order to do what you say, then please do help. Even in recovery especially TWRP the touchscreen is unresponsive except for ClockWorkMod and Philz. So i don't know if it is hardware related or I'm doing something wrong.
Its driving me crazy :crying:
Update
So what I did last night:
I loaded the SlimKat rom and based on the stock bootloader and after doing a couple of battery pulls the screen starting functioning properly. However it was just luck or could've been something more technical.
I need help in understanding why that happened.
Then I decided I dont trust my method and reloaded the stock 4.4.2 firmware from sammobile. What then happened, is that it booted past the "Galaxy GT-I9190" screen into the samsung logo and then installed the applications. Come to the choose language screen, the touchscreen became once again unresponsive.
Bear in mind, that when I did a reboot with the stock rom, it didn't want to boot past the screen and just hung there.
So what could my problem be?
Is it the rom that I used? Using Unified Android Tool, I saw my region code is GB which I haven't seen anywhere in the stock roms.
Could the system somehow become corrupted? Emmc, partitions? Could the screen calibration be out of sync?
Must the bootloader always be the stock one? Are there custom bootloaders that one can use?
Please help, thanks

Possible solution:
So I thought it could be screen calibration so this is what I did to make my phone work.
I loaded the CARBON Rom as I somehow lost root privileges with SlimKat. It loaded into the OS as per normal but the touch screen didn't work. So after numerous battery pulls, i read this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2353972&page=1 .
So then I connected the phone to the pc (having had the samsung drivers installed as well as adb) and booted into cmd promt as admin.
This is what I did in cmd prompt:
cd adb
adb shell (make sure there is a "#" as that ensures you that your phone is rooted)
echo 0 > /sys/class/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal (did this several times)
echo 1 > /sys/class/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal (did this several times)
@xcxa23
It then still didn't work (the touch screen) then somewhere on one of the pages in the above post, someone mentioned holding home button. I switched the phone off, I then held the home button (until it booted into the OS) and then powered the phone on. The phone booted into the OS and presto the screen worked again. I did a reboot and the screen is still fine.
Again I'm not sure if its that exact method but what I am sure of, is that I did a clean rom install (an option in Philz touch recovery), wiped the cache, formatted the options (boot, system, cache, preload, data) in mounts and storage and then proceeded to install the rom from the sd card.
I haven't tried with the stock rom as yet so if this helps you, goodluck and if you can help improve on this method or help me understand why this is happening, it would also be appreciated.
Thanks
Confirmed for that is

Hey guys, just a quick update.
I reloaded Cyanogenmod mod CM13. I can confirm that my screen didn't freeze up and booted perfectly. I also then decided to take a chance adn reload the stock rom 4.4.2 and it also worked perfectly and booted directly into the OS.
I'm guessing the screen calibration was out.
So if this happens to you, I would suggest loading a custom rom and doing the screen calibration reset through adb and then test again with another custom rom. Once you comfortable, you can reload a stock rom.
I used Philz Touch for recovery
Thanks to everyone who put posts up .. Time to rest
Not working again!!
Hey,
So in my previous post I said I got it to work. Well I did, up until a few minutes ago when the phone just decided to freeze up again. I restarted the phone and would you know, back to square one!
I've noticed issues that I'm wondering if they could be the problem:
1) The audio didn't work at all. By audio, I mean the mic. When I did voice recording, it just gave static, whatsapp calls, the other person can't hear you as well as regular phone calls.
2) I just rooted the phone in order to change the audio_policy.cnf and delete lines relating to the above audio problem but then the screen, return, and menu button didn't function. The screen could still rotate until I pressed the power button to lock then unlock and then it didn't unlock :crying:
So once again, some help guys please. Is it rom related, hardware (motherboard, chip) or software that just isn't working right? Could it be KNOX?
Thanks
Hello everyone,
yesterday I flashed a new Cyanogenmod 14 nightly (12062016) for my G4 from earlier nightly in TWRP. After reboot the phone keeps going back to TWRP and I can't seem to get it to boot to system..
I tried factory reset, reflashing back to old nightly, flashing stock.. but nothing seems to work.
Also tried doing this in the TWRP terminal:
dd[space]if=/dev/zero[space]of=/dev/block/platform/f9824900.sdhci/by-name/fota
Didn't fix the loop, I guess because it wasn't the OTA update that caused the problem in the first place.
If anyone has an idea, I would greatly appreciate the help!
Thanks.
If you can reach download mode you could try reflashing back to stock then starting again.....Hope you get yours fixed - Sorry to say this but mine did a very similar thing only 24 hours before you posted!!! Only mine was on stock FW and was in use at the time - I've now had to swap it as valuebasket who sold me the phone have ceased trading. If yours is a UK model you may be able to get it replaced under warranty - believe that LG guarantee their phones for 2 years and a ruling by the European court said that flashing a custom rom doesn't invalidate any warranties.
I have the same exact issue, I also flashed the latest CM14 nightly and cannot get the device to boot any rom.
I have even tried flashing stock rom but I get the same problem.
From what I have read, the bootloop issue happens once the device boots but I don't seem to be getting that far.
Any ideas?
Ran into the same problem 3 days ago. This is the first time I have encountered a non-revertible issue in 3 years as a cyanogenmod user. This changes my opinion on how safe it is to make use of a custom ROM. I tried to wipe everything, reinstall TWRP, change TWRP with another recovery, reinstall a safe NAND backup of mine.....nothing.....it went into boot loop. Before I read this post, I was convinced my phone encountered the infamous G4 bootloop problem.....now I see there are other examples, so it shouldn't be the case. Long story short, I had to check my device in at the LG assistance, with 25 days as time forecast.
The guilty nightly was 20161205.
I have never seen anything like this...
This has solved it for me - I installed LG Bridge and flashed the factory firmware using the tool. Now it seems I'm back on stock but at least it's working.
got mine working. I had to install LGUP and flash stock ROM. Once flashed I installed CM14 and I am back up and running again.
I tried LGUP but it could not recognize the device while this was looping.....a bad experience......
I have the same issue. My phone was updated to 20i via the original stock firmware, then I put twrp 3.0.2-0 and cyanogenmod on. I did a cyanogenmod update from within cyanogenmod, which just booted into twrp, then I manually installed the update zip that cyanogenmod had downloaded, then it always boots into twrp. I wonder if initiating the update from within cyanogenmod was the cause. The phone is not detected by LGUP or LG Bridge. I've tried this on a win10 machine, and a win7 vm from linux. I have access to twrp, and download mode by doing the reboot into bootloader from within twrp.
If those people who have fixed this could give more details about how they did it, that would be good. What exact steps did you take? What stock firmware version did you have before installing a custom rom? What OS version were you using? What twrp version?
Well. Mine got stuck in bootloop for the second time today. What is going on? In between the two bootloops I had one good update with CM. Using TWRP 3.0.2.1. Steps to reproduce failure: updating CM from within CM, it autoreboots into TWRP and after that nothing happends, no autoinstall. Then after a manual install of the new CM the bootloop starts.
Resolve the problem:
* Install LGUP 8994 DLL Ver 0 0 3 23, Install LGUP Install Ver 1 14, get the latest KDZ
* Get the phone into download mode with usb cable and after that in firmware update mode
* Startup LGUP and choose refurbish and select the kdz file.
* After that you can boot into your stock LG firmware again, reinstall TWRP an CM. If you want so.
Read that it is advised to manual update cm from within TWRP. TWRP will get an update in the future to solve this bootloop problem.

I second that. Same issue and neither LG Up nor LG Bridge will recognize my device. Looking in device manager there are no serial interfaces. Do I need a special driver that provides a com port for a phone in recovery or fastboot mode?
---Edith 2016-12-12: Found a solution for my issue:
The phone has to be in _download_ mode, not in recovery or fastboot. After realizing that I have to boot the phone in a different manner, it will be recognized by LG UP.
Here is how to boot the pone in download-mode:
- Power off your LG device.
- Press and hold Volume Up button.
- Connect your device to PC with a USB cable while holding the Volume Up button.
- You’ll boot into download mode with “Firmware Update” written on top of the screen.
Now everything is fine again.

I was able to get out of that by also wiping by-name/misc. Don't do that, though, because then your wifi mac address will get messed up and you'll spend all day looking for a permanent fix for that.
I suggest reflashing a stock KDZ using LGUP, as others have said. You can get the usb drivers from LG Bridge.
I will release a fix for that soon. Check the twrp thread for updates on this.
Hi
I also have this problem
I installed cm-14.1-20161201-NIGHTLY-h815 successfully and was running it for almost 2 weeks without issues, today I updated to cm-14.1-20161213-NIGHTLY-h815 from cmupdater and I have been ending up in recovery every time I rebooted.
I tried flashing the latest cm recovery and reflashing the rom, with full wipes but no luck.
Full steps of recovering would be appreciated (for example, there are comments about flashing the latest stock rom, but a link to this rom would be helpful)
Thanks
Good news regarding this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70082901&postcount=213
The above will fix TWRP bootloop issues as well and I also released a first h811 version which should allow installing CM etc as it should.
Keep in mind that this is a BETA and not an official TWRP release.
Please report back in the above thread!
.
Does your twrp beta really fix the boot loop even it is already happening. What do I have to wipe? I have not managed to get out of the boot loop despite intalling it.
Is using using LG Up to flash to the stock rom really the only option?
Edited 2017-01-25 2:45 pm:
Well, sometimes you just have to be patient. Powered down the phone and when th H815 restarted CM did boot. Great. :good:
Hey, I just want to share a small detail, possibly a fluke that helped me overcome the bootloop.
So...I started with a fresh, stock H815, I don't quite remember the firmware version..it was something like version "20g"..
OK, I looked up several guides and tried to get the newest stable versions of each tool. I went through with the official bootloader unlock, then moved on to rooting: Kingroot didn't work for me so I went on installing twrp in fastboot mode so I could afterwards install supersu and root.
I got there eventually but first I was stuck in bootloop - kept ending up in twrp interface. I found the 2 dd commands but those didn't work for me as the msm_sdcc folder did not exist, but instead there was a "f9824900.sdhci". Tried to overwrite this one ...but as others have stated as well, it didn't work.
At that point, I had nothing to lose, I was starting to accept that I had soft-bricked my precious G4 so..I went on installing the DU 10.6 7.1.1 rom and the stock gapps, wiped dalvik, rebooted and held my breath...not literally
About 12 minutes later, after an endless red, spinning logo, my shiny ping pong paddle showed me a different screen, a fresh start welcome screen .
Almost 24h / 10-12 reboots (twrp included) / 70+ apps installed and removed later, the new OS holds around 2G ram average, a bit better battery life, smoother transitions, flawless navigation, flush streaming over both 3G/LTE & 2.4/5 G wifi.
FYI the reboots were intended, wanted to see consistency in boots - we're in the green . Now testing long term stability with moderate/high usage.
There is 1 aspect I noticed, there are a couple of contexts when the interface burps (several menus, various situations, never in apps) and resets back to homescreen...but I think that's more of a launcher topic than an OS one.
Other than that, so far I'm happy with the mod.
Hope my experience helps others that might be in the same spot I was or at lest boosts their confidence to try out a decent idea they might be pondering.
So previous to yesterday I had a fully working Galaxy S9 G960F, running the latest version of crDroid 11 (from 2021 heh), and something like TWRP 3.5.1? A fairly old version anyway, since I'd been running the same OS for the past year. I recently noticed someone had gotten 13 working on the S9, so I downloaded it and installed it like I'd done every other time installing a custom OS before, rebooted, and then the phone starts automatically going to recovery on boot, but gets stuck on the TWRP splash screen each time.
So I figured maybe the version of TWRP was too old for Android 13, and grab the latest (3.7.0), flash that with Odin, start the phone and I can at least get into recovery this time. So I try installing crDroid again. Same deal, just instantly boots straight back into recovery. So, figuring I'd best just go back to what I was using before, I reinstalled the previous crDroid 11 I had been using, and.. for some reason with that installed it only boots into Download mode unless I force it into Recovery. I try wiping everything and trying again, same deal. I even tried installing a different rom (Evolution X) and that just straight reboot looped.
If I go back to 3.5.1 TWRP it gets stuck on the splash screen btw. I am not sure what to do from here. Can I go back to stock and start over? Is there something else I should be doing? I've changed roms a bunch of times in the past and this is the first time 'just reinstall what worked before' hasn't worked, heh.
(For clarification, with crDroid 13: Phone turns on, shows Samsung Galaxy S9 boot screen, then goes straight into TWRP. With crDroid 11: Phone turns on, Galaxy S9 boot screen, straight into Downloading. With Evolution X: Phone turns on, Galaxy S9 boot screen, shut down and reboot. Buttons don't seem to be pressed in.)

Similar thing happened to me on a different Samsung device.
I did:
Used at that time SamFirm_Reborn_0.3.6.2 to get latest stock from samsung servers directly after inserting correct device designation and csc code.
Checked "binary nature" to get the full multiple part stock rom.
Flashed that with Odin.
Started from scratch.
Thank you so much! That fixed it.
