I got it, I finally got stock a rom to load via Odin but it was getting stuck on the Samsung screen so I rooted it before it even let me in. Then i did a wipe and it started up and now all is well stock 4.3 rooted. This reminded me why i always choose stock rooted roms
Hello everyone, this is my first post and pretty much a cry for help.
So I'm not new to the whole rooting scene, as I did many things on my old S3, but I'm having a bit of trouble with my note 3.
I had rooted my device about a week after I got it to remove some bloatware. Flashed some ROMs to try out but ended up back on stock firmware which removed root but didn't really care. Tried to update yesterday and got the whole "you're device has been modified" thing. So I rooted again and downloaded xposed installer and that app to fake system to not get that message. Everything seemed fine, got the update and started downloading. Once it finished downloading and tried updating, I got a failed to update message then back to home screen. Went on some forums and read Kies was working for people who had rooted phones. Tested that out and started working. Download went fine, it started updating, all was good. Said update was complete and it was restarting..... Let the fun begin.
About 10 minutes later (I waited this long because I've flashed plenty of ROMs and I know the initial boot can take forever) and it was stuck at Samsung boot logo. On the top left there was a blue message saying "Recovery Rebooting." I restarted again, same thing. Did a battery pull waited a few minutes and still nothing. Wouldn't go into recovery mode, but it did go into download mode. Assumed something was wrong with the recovery so I flashed a custom one. Finally was able to go into recovery so I did factory reset/cache and rebooted. Phone was still stuck at boot logo but this time no blue message. I then found the 4.4.2 KK md5 file online so I flashed that through Odin but same story. Ended up flashing back to stock 4.3 and that's where I'm at now.
Any ideas? Am I stuck without KK forever? The only thing I think there's left to do is go completely stock by removing the Knox counter or whatever that's currently set to 0x1 on my phone. Doing the whole "Triangle away" thing but idk if that'll make a difference.
Sorry for the really long post but I'd prefer to explain everything I've tried so far.
You might have had a bad download from the odin.tar.md5 file redownload and flash again i have heard other pwople say they had to flash it 2 times for it to take and once u do the update to 4.4.2 you cannot revert back to 4.3

I thought rooted phones weren't allowed to update via Kies or OTA.

I guess I'll try to download it again and see if that works. Do you know if that's through Kies or through manually downloading it then using Odin?

Well it seemed to update for me. At least the verification process went through. I used Wanam Xposed and had the fake system status thing checked. Either way something went wrong and didn't finish the updating process and got stuck at boot logo with no recovery options.
The OTA update did not work though. I was able to get the update downloading after Wanam, but once the download finished, the update failed before trying to install. Did not try OTA again though I just went to Kies, then Odin. But all 3 methods failed.
Hi guys,
I have the t-mobile s6 edge
After messing around with my device last night and this morning, I decided to go back to stock for a bit.
I have ODIN 3.10.6. I went into download mode on my phone. extracted the stock firmware from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/sm-g925f-s6-firmware-thread-t3078841
loaded the "G925TUVU1AOCG_G925TTMB1AOCG_G925TUVU1AOCG_HOME.tar.md5" file into the ap box for odin
connected my phone to computer, odin recognized it. hit start. ran successfully. rebooted, android guy came up briefly and said installing system update, then it changed to "Erasing..." then it rebooted again
now it's just bootloops forever after the tmobile screen. I can boot to recovery and it says installing system update each time I boot to recovery, but selecting reboot system there shows a no command error. force the phone to power off... power on again to bootloops.
tried to go into download mode again and reflash everything through odin, same issue!
I started last night by rooting using chainfire, then installing TWRPv2, then I flashed the 5.1.1 ROM available from @eousphoros (sorry for the tag, just thought you might want to be apprised of the issues in getting back to stock after using the 5.1.1 ROM).
with 5.1.1 loaded, smart switch didn't recognize the phone for a reset so I decided to go with the ODIN method and now i'm in bootloop city
any help would be greatly appreciated

You probably need to do a factory reset
In the future you should make a full backup before installing a rom

AHH!! Sorry to have made this post... here's what I did to get it actually boot:
reflahed the stock firmware through odin again, tried to reboot, it failed, obviously. rebooted to recovery, factory reset in recovery, power down option in recovery, then turned the phone on again and it magically worked!
hopefully this post will help someone who encountered the same issue

I had the same excat same thing happen when flashing this via Odin. I didnt need to Odin stock twice though . I just booted stock recovery and did a factory reset. After that I went ahead an powered down and rebooted . All good now
How long did you have to wait in the stock recovery to get past the "installing system update" screen? Mine just sits there and I'm unable to view other options in recovery.
EDIT for noobs (like me): wait 30 seconds on the "installing system update" screen.
I'm still stuck in boot loop
Im in the same exact situation , but I'm still stuck in boot loop. I followed your restore instructions and nothing. Please help.

Pp.
I initially used odin to flash OI1 update, after a rom I was using caused problems and I got bootloop. It changed bootloader value to b:3 and I'm unable to downgrade now so I used smart switch which didn't recognize device so used emergency recovery and still bootloop. I have factory reset and wipe cache multiple times along with adb side load and individual flashes of bootloader, modem, kernel, flashed custom kernel and twrp to access fix permissions and to mount partitions with advanced wipe etc and still wont boot past logo. Also during one fix attempt phone said can't mount system.. Idk I'm not understanding where the problem is .everything says successful but I'm still in bootloop. Please help. I've spent hours everyday for the past week searching & trying different things that seem might help so open to any suggestions.

I tired to reboot with volume and power phused but nothing is happening?
Now I only have a black screen?

Use for example nexus root toolkit.
Make wipe in recovery, then flash stock latest 6.0.1.
Thankd for the help,
I will try it!
im on stock 6.0 and my tablet doesn't boot up after the 6.0.1 update install.
its stuck in infinite boot loop.
tired clearing the cache partition from recovery but in vain!
any help?
MMhh can get it to work?
Tried to restore/upgrade/downgrade and choose for oft bricked/bootloop and then select the original 6.01 image but all I am getting is not connected bacuse I am not getting it in the download mode?
It worked!!
After more then ten minutes trying to get in the the bootloader mode it was easy to use the program and the original image from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#razor it worked fine!
Thanks for the help!
Yes, that is the way I got the OTA on with NRT and it worked. However, if you try to root the device afterwards it fails at the installing SuperSU and BusyBox installs. I can never find the files even though they are on the device.
Hi everyone, so long story short. my galaxy A50(SM-A505GN) was suddenly in a bootloop.
long story, the phone is doing just fine, everything works well. I was in a middle of a call when it suddenly froze then restarted itself an then voila it's stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy A50 secured by Knox powered by android" Logo WHICH never shows up on startup before. it only shows the samsung logo on startup before, there is a pending update on the notification bar but I have not installed it yet so I don't think that is the culprit. no apps installed before the boot loop. if you need any more info about the phone that I might have missed just mention it. I'll try to answer it the best that I can.
Things I have tried:
wipe cache
wipe data and cache
flash latest stock rom (dumb thing won't let me downgrade)
things the phone can do:
go into recovery mode ONLY if the USB is plugged to a PC/laptop
go into download mode from recovery mode
force restart with volume down + power button
it is still on boot loop even after flashing the stock rom. Is there anything I can do to this phone WITHOUT returning it to Samsung, because we all know why that idea sucks. btw, I live in the Southeast Asia region where the warranty for mobile phone is sooo bad.
more than willing to flash custom ROM into it just so it could return to being usable but unfortunately I can't unlock the bootloader without the doing the OEM unlocking thing on dev options. any suggestion on how I could fix this damn phone would be so much appreciated. I really can't afford a new one right now. Thank you.
This happened with me too. Did you update the security patch which came in as OTA update ?
I think this happened because of the security patch.

there is a pending update but I have not downloaded nor install it. looks like I will have to wait next month and try flashing the latest patch.
Bro, install recovery 3.4 and the rom fresh. i had some problem. i fix it intro to recovery with download mode, and go to recovery
