Hi everybody,
some time ago I flashed my ace II with cm 11 build 20141118 by ace2nutzer. Installation was ok and it worked properly. However, it had some minor problems, one of which was that battery wouldn't charge while booting the phone. One day it happened that my phone arrived at 0% battery and shut down. I couldn't find a way to turn it on because of the too-low battery, so I tried to see if during recovery mode maybe the battery would charge... but, instead of going to recovery, I pressed the wrong buttons and entered into download mode. There, the phone wouldn't charge and at one point it shut down. After some days I discovered that I could charge the phone by simply connecting it to a computer... But now it won't start. It gets bootloop (more precisely it keeps restarting) at the samsung logo. I tried to reflash the build I had before, but I keep getting status 7 error (even after deleting asserts).
Soo, is my phone bricked? Is there anything I could do to make it work?
Thanks to anyone that will help me
tl;dr: phone shut down during download mode, now bootloops and gives Status 7 error (even after deleting asserts) while trying to flash the same ROM it had before.
Anyone?
I forgot to say that I had a nandroid backup, but I can't restore it: it says "error while restoring /system!".

Doesn't work. Odin doesn't give any error, but the phone keeps bootlooping.

CWM is a custom recovery. stock recovery is the one you have installed with the stock firmware.

If you cannot enter download or recovery mode using the normal key combinations you may need a USB jig. You can find these on Amazon for about $3. Search for Samsung USB Jig. This will allow you to get into download mode without the normal key combinations.

Did you have a custom kernel installed?
Did your return to stock include the stock kernel?
Did you try pulling your battery?
The initial boot can take a while, but I've had luck pulling the battery when stuck on the first boot sometimes.

Sad to say, it didn't work its still sitting on the samsung bootlogo glowing. Is there any kind of way i can maybe wipe the devlik cache and cache? I could probably wake it up by doing that.
Depending on how you went back to stock it should have also replaced your recovery, in any case you may still need to wipe data/factory reset to get past the bootloop.
situation...
-flashed the phone using odin pc
-installed clockwork recovery using rom manager pro app on phone
-flashed 'cleanrom' onto phone didn't like it so flash another rom 'jedi x'
-didn't clean/wipe data before flashing it
-flashed 'jedi x' then the phone restarted
-didn't finish restart, stuck in bootloop...
tried to reflash CWM6 onto my phone using download mode and pc odin didn't get pass bootscreen 'samsung' logo
tried to enter recovery mode by holding vol up + home + power... can't get access to recovery mode....
desperately need help... please help!!!
try wiping... 2 different roms won't pay nice if you don't wipe

I'm actually in the exact same situation. I was simply transferring music to my phone when it went into this boot loop. I've tried using ODIN to flash every possible ROM I've been able to find.
Desperately in need of help.
How exactly do I perform a "wipe"?
1. Can you guys get into Download and or Recovery mode?
2. If recovery is available, did you back up? If so, restore or flash back to original Rom.
3. If you can get into Download mode, flash back to a stock Rom, and start fresh.
Might sound obvious, just trying to help. I've learned that often I thought the phone was "done", but after refusing to give up on it, it came back to life...
Just keep trying , sounds recoverable for both.

You can wipe by getting into recovery. Wipe Data, cache, dalvik cache.
I can only get into download mode and I've tried to flash to stock ROM SEVERAL times now to no avail.
I've noticed that the binary counter isn't going up after each attempt though...

So, does odin say- succeeded or failed or do nothing when you flash?

Hi, I have a problem on my Galaxy GIO GT-S5660.
After turning off my phone, this has gone in bootloop. I've tried to search solutions on the forum, but no one has worked.
I can't go into recovery mode, just into Downloading mode and Emergency Downloading mode. When I try to flash it with a stock rom with Odin, it works until the reboot: when the phone is going to reboot, it doesn't start again. Odin takes his 5 minutes and say "PASS", but the phone is in the same bootloop and I can't use the Recovery mode.
I tried to flash the rom with Odin just using One Package option and either putting 4 packages.
Any idea?
Thanks!
P.S.: Do you know what is "Parameter Clear", "PDA format", "MD5 RAM Check" and "Phone Boot Udpate" under the "Debug ONLY" menu? I use Odin Multi Downloader v4.42.
what did you do? rom manager?
cuz not booting and corrupt recovery cant happen out of nothing, and it are complications of using rom manager on the wrong way.

It sounds like we have the same problem.
My phone won't boot normally (I just get a black screen that flashes every few seconds) and I can't get into recovery mode, only download mode. Tried flashing with Odin and it didn't seem to change anything. I don't know what else to do.

Accidentally used Mobile Odin on the wrong phone. After the use of that application the phone continue to work properly, I had that problem After rebooting.

I have the same black flashing screen when my Gio is charging, but I have the Samsung logo flashing every few seconds when I try to switch on the phone. What did you do on yours? Rom Manager or what?

It might have been that I tried to read /dev/stl5 (EFS partition) and that corrupted it. Or it might have been that I tried to flash it using heimdall (which I later discovered doesn't work on Gio). That didn't seem to do anything though, so I'm not sure what actually bricked it.

I would try to use PDA format under Debug Only menu in Odin 4.42, if I only knew what it does. Or maybe use Boot Update, under Debug menu... do you know any official manual of Odin and his Debug options?

Can you guys still boot into recovery? If not, try flashing recovery via Odin. Once in recovery, factory reset your device, wipe system, wipe dalvik, wipe everything. Then try once again with Odin to flash your stock ROM - try a one package file (includes everything).

I can't get into recovery. If I boot while holding [home], the screen just blinks every few seconds, the same as if I boot without holding anything. I have tried flashing CWM recovery or stock ROM with Odin; it doesn't seem to change anything.

It's happening the same form me... I never used Rom Manager WTH!!! I flashed a lot of times on my samsung galaxy ace stock roms, and never happened this... dunno what to do but this is so strange... can go in download but flash when I flash any stock, stays the same "flash" bootloop, samsung logo only 1s and disappear 1s and the same... nothing...
Hey guys Last night I tried to install the newest twrp. It installed fine. I made myself a back up of my current system, everything. So I got to wipe the system to install a new rom. It gets stuck whipping the cache, just sits there for 3 min, then it restarts itself. Now the tablet boots to the Samsung galaCy note logo and that's it. I can no longer get into recovery or system. I can boot to download mode but when I press volume up it just restarts back to note 10.1 2014 logo. I pretty much f, ed right. Any help would be great thanks.

Unfortunately, yes.
If you can`t get to recovery, then probably you are bricked, are you sure you installed the correct TWRP version on your note.
last chance is to use kies and a stock image.
it seems it's more careful to use twrp 2.6.x instead of 2.7.x.

This is the one I installed and yes it is a 2.7.x version. What can I do with kies?
Thanks guys for the help
Maybe you can try to flash an stock image (4.3 or 4.4) with kies.
Sure you can' t go into bootloader mode to flash with odin ?
Just to let everyone know, I let the battery completely did on my tablet, waited a half hour and she booted right into download mode. Got the new kitkat 4.4.2 image and flashed it with odin no problems. Boots right into recovery and system no problem. Will now root again and install twrp. Thanks for the help guys. Love this site.
Hi, my S4 mini entered a boot loop and pressing volume up+home+power doesn't enter recovery mode.
I haven't been playing anything strange with it, it has stock rom.
I just boarded a plane, put it to plane mode and when I landed it was like this.
Please help, I don't know what to do.:crying:
Thanks
Flash stock firmware using odin.
Or you can try flashing a custom recovery and making factory reset. You will lose data but phone will recover.
Stock rom odın flash, recovery wipe data ve cache and reboot
Sorry bad for English
Sent from my GT-I9190 using XDA Free mobile app
Thank you, but Odin is only for windows and I don't have it.
Any other program for Mac that could do that?
If possible I would not want to have the phone factory reset, I haven't done anything to justify this.
With my previous galaxy I had been playing and I could understand something similar,
but with this one I did absolutely nothing, do you understand why it happened?
I think you can not solve without turning to factory settings
Data are data without opening the phone what I will do if you can work something yok.he half of
Sorry Bad For English
Ok, I managed to get a windows PC and flashed the rom again with Odin.
It turned out that is not the problem. The problem is that after that (as much as before), when I start in recovery mode it shows the dead android and says "no command", after which it enters the boot loop again.
Now the phone has a freshly flashed stock rom, so what could it be???
I also flashed CWM-recovery and stil I can't get into recovery.
Kinda desperate now!

Just grab a latest build of any custom recovery for your device and flash it via odin.
Use TWRP or CWM latest builds. Once they flash successfully and the screen turns off
as device reboots, press and hold home and vol up keys which takes u to recovery.
Now go to advanced wipe and choose cache, data, dalvik AND INTERNAL STORAGE.
It is recommended to wipe internal storage this time. Just in case. Then reboot.
Thanks, but in which way is your suggestion different from what I just did?

Oh sorry. So it does not work even with custom recovery....
Did you try to flash it with a pit file earlier ? I mean did you do any re-partition ?
This is indeed really strange.
I tried CWM, not TWRP.
I don't know what a pit file is, I didn't repartition it, I did absolutely nothing to it.
I boarded a plane, put it in plane mode (I think) and when I landed 9h later it was off.
When I started it, it boot looped and no recovery.
Ok, now I tried also TWRP, nothing new
Does anybody have any further suggestion? I'm totally stuck and without phone almost a week now.

Better to take the phone to service center.
They will solve it.
even better I'll buy an iphone next time
