Stuck in Bootloop after CM11 - Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys, I just rooted and installed CM11, no problems there. Then I restarted after a few hours of use and it got stuck on the samsung logo - I tried flashing CM a few more times, factory reset, full wipe, cleared cache still no joy.
I then flashed a stock rom through Odin and it still will not go past the samsung loading screen, the one which says 'samsung tab 3'
totally at a loss as to what to do
tried pushing a new rom to the device but cannot get my CPU to pick the device up when I type adb devices - its just blank
thanks.

[Q] N7105 Won't boot - Possibly Bricked?

I was flashing a new ROM onto my phone today (MoonROM) and has some trouble doing it - things seemed to have gone OK, but i realized that i had set something wrong in the AROMA options, so i re flashed to get the correct setting.
After reflashing, my phone wouldn't boot - it just sits at the 'title screen' indefinitely - black, with white text saying "Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7105".
I booted into recovery and clearing my cache + Dalvik - still nothing
Into recovery agian and flashed my previous ROM (Hashcheck hybrid) - still nothing. just sits at that title forever.
I have since tried reflashing the stock rom using ODIN, flashed several different roms in recovery, and tried several different recoveries (TWRP, CWM, and PhilZ). still no luck.
What else can i try? Have i somehow bricked my phone? And if I have, what can i do to get it working again?

[Q] Soft brick, neverending booting / boot loop. Am i doing this right?

Hi Guys.
So i flashed a few roms lately. started with EmotionMiUi then CM10, Omega, Alliance and well a few more.
i did a full wipe and cleared all caches each times and only had a few minor problems with the different ROMS that i was able to fix.
So i now returned to MiUi and have had it running for about a week. Tried some DPi modding yesterday, and did notice that it took longer time to boot and boot into recovery. i flashed the Xpose DPi remover, and continued using my phone. i have rebooted about 3 times today. And the last reboot caused the phone to enter the eternal "Samsung Galaxy Note II - N7100" boot static "animation".
Now i have tried pulling the battery several times, tried booting into recovery and the only thing that will let me boot into anything is power + home + volume down.
i have obtained the official samsung firmware ROM for my phone.
is my way ahead to "just" flash it using Odin, and i will have my good times back ?
Maybe try to clear Data and Cache partitions first?

Just to clear you're stuck at the start screen( the screen it shows Note 2 and model number)?
If so, then i have no clue
If your phone goes in a bootloop ( startscreen then samsung logo animation, blank screen, start screen, samsung logo animation...) I have faced this issue while flashing Stock ROMs and you can clear this by doing a factory reset though i have no clue whether this is the correct one for MIUI ROM.

i was stuck at the very first startscreen that just stayed there. i had been messing around with some DPi and a lot of tweaks.
i used Odin from my PC to flash the official firmware, then i used Philz recovery to format and clean before flashing my MiUi V5 ROM.
ALL works great.

[Q] S3 - Bricked [no recovery, sits at s3 load screen]

Still a bit of noob here - but here's what happened:
I was running clean bean 4.2, then I successfully installed the MK3 baseband w/o any problems. I found that the wifi was broken so I flashed the wifi fix from (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541900).
Once that flashed ok my system tried to reboot and then proceeded to sit at the samsung loading screen. After 10+ mins I hard pulled the battery and was able to get into twrp and tried a restore backup from before any changes today. Once that finished it rebooted and is still sitting at s3 load screen.
Now when I try to get into recovery nothing happens.
Powering of and on remains sitting at the s3 load screen.
Any help would be appreciated.
Update: Ok not all hope is lost - I can get back into recovery, but restore while successful refuses to load past the s3 screen.
I'm a bit at loss now what to do - would factory resetting it do the trick?
Update 2: Tried a factory reset and still nothing - still sits at the s3 load screen.
Ok - I got a rom manually back on the sd card and reflashed a base rom.
Phone boots back into android. :good:
I have learned my lesson.
Yes, lesson is do not flash zips made for stock touchwiz when you are on AOSP, or vice versa.

My phone always resets itself (really urgent)

Hello dear friends.I have a really boring problem about my phone.It has been installed a Cyanogenmod 11 on the phone for about a year.And suddenly it started to restart itself.Once it starts it always continues to do that like a boot loop.Anyway
-I tried to wipe dalvik and the cache.And it worked for one day.Then it started to do it again.So i tried to format the rom from philz recovery.It didnt work.
-Sometimes it restarts after i enter the pin code.So i tried to remove it.But the problems occurs anyway.
-I had a backup and i restored it.Although i restored the rom it continued to restart.
-Finally i downloaded an original samsung rom and flashed it by odin.But nothing changes.
first screen appears, then a samsung boot screen comes by a sound tone and samsung emblem shows itself.Then it restarts.So it goes to a bootloop.Alway goes between the first screen and samsung boot screen.I never see pin code entry screen.What do you think for the problem?Might it be a hardware problem?
Did you perform a factory reset using stock recovery before booting the phone for the first time after flashing stock?
Tried starting with and without being connected to a charger?
Samsung note 2 n7100 stopped at logo , when I install wrong recovery .img by flashify and the device unconnected to odin

S4 Mini bootloop (can access recovery & download mode)

Hello,
I have been trying to fix my phone all day, searching various forums online, but I haven't been able to find anything.
I rooted my phone about 10 months ago, I just installed CWM and the rootkit. No custom ROM or Kernel. I used very popular apps such as Greenify and a few others. I didn't touch anything else or do anything fancy.
When I woke up this morning, I grabbed my phone to check the time, opened Chrome for some browsing and suddenly my screen froze. I thought it was just going to freeze for a few seconds but it ended up crashing entirely and I couldn't reboot at all.
I tried plugging it into my computer but it wasn't recognized at all. The Samsung USB Drivers didn't work and Odin didn't recognize it either. I couldn't boot into Recovery or Download mode anyway.
After searching for hours, I found this : ht tp:/ /w w w.droidsavvy. co m/unbrick-qualcomm-mobiles/
I followed all the steps but ended up getting stuck with some error during the QFIL processus. I was about to give up when suddenly my phone started vibrating, and the "Battery charging" logo appeared (it's now fully charged).
I could access download mode, so I tried installing USB drivers again and somehow my phone was finally recognized by Odin. I reinstalled CWM 6.0.5.1 and was able to enter recovery mode. I also flashed a stock ROM with Odin.
Using ABP, I was able to backup all my photos. After backing up everything, I wiped the cache and started a factory reset through CWM. But then, my phone crashed and got stuck in the bootloop again. I tried to wipe the dalvik cache but it crashed as well. I tried to install the rootkit again (why the hell not) but it crashed too. Each time it crashed at "Disabling OTA survival"
I tried factory reseting through ADB but it doesn't work either.
I looked at many different solutions to fix it, but none of them worked :/
To sum it up (TLDR):
- Phone stuck in bootloop
- Phone is recognized by my PC (Odin, ADB)
- Can access both recovery and download mode
- Flashing new ROM didn't do anything
- Can't wipe dalvik cache or do factory reset
