Did you flash via odin or recovery? It seems that you are flashing through recovery.

I flashed via odin, in this moment the tablet unbricked but now says that the google apps has stopped, like google play, hangouts

Have you fixed this? Tried wiping data in recovery, or else wiping data in the settings for each app that is force closing?

When you get that error you will normally get a notification to update Google services, so make sure you are signed in.
If you don't get the notification try clearing data and cache for Google play services and Google framework.

Boot into recovery and factory reset then install the stock Rom.
That should solve your issues.

i cant into recovery i only into download mode!!!

Do you know how to get into recovery?

Bricked?
I'm having the exact same problem., except in my case I tried to flash an unofficial CM12 rom, and it got put into a bootloop where you CANNOT boot to recovery mode, and Download mode becomes stuck. I have tried reflashign TWRP on odin, to no avail. I have no clue what is wrong or what I can do. I'm afraid I may have bricked my device for good.

If you get the timing right you will be able to get to recovery.
POWER + VOL UP + HOME from an off state or immediately after restart.

[Q] How to resolve this bootloop

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.

BOOTLOOP
After updating, from samsumg, my android doesn't start and i cann't use it. Try everthing, any ideias?
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.

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.

[Q] Note 2 Stuck in boot loop [No Root/Custom Anything]

Had my note 2 for several months now on Wind Mobile. I woke up this morning and it was working fine, went out for a walk and 5 minutes into the walk my phone was stuck in the boot loop. I never flashed or rooted my phone. Its stuck where the samsung logo comes up and the blue and purple halo circles it. I have access to both the volume up+home button+power button menu, aswell and the volume down menu. I already cleared the system cache and was wondering what to do?
If possible i would like to be able to extract my data before doing a factory reset. Any help would be great!
It doesnt seem that wiping data will fix your problem it looks like system corruption try flashing new software

[Q] Shut down during download mode: phone bricked?

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!".

[Q] Stuck at Samsung Galaxy Note II Logo

My phone turned off because of drained battery so I charge it. But when I turn it on, It's stuck at the logo.
So I'm using DN4 ROM for my device and the latest TWRP.
I tried wiping dalvik / cache and then factory reset (when I factory reset it, it will turn off and then stuck at the logo again)
I tried flashing a custom rom but I got an error
Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset
E:Error excuting updater binary in zip '[location of the zip file]'
Someone help please. Can I flash via odin?

Is it the same problem as mine?
You might want to download official firmware of your phone from sammobile (According to country and network be careful with that)
Flash TWRP first so you can Wipe Cache, Dalvik Cache, System, Data. Android will be gone if you do this. No OS.
Then flash the official or stock firmware then check if it's successful.
Then root. Then flash TWRP again just to be sure then flash your custom rom.
its not how hard hit its how how you get hit and still move forward!
Alright .
Check baby Check.
got the original firm ware from sammobile now i will flash the twrp file clear the catch and then catch yall back here when i get results.
wont give up on this mobile haha.

Error RP SWREV A3 - Constant rebooting - Unable to reinstall rom

Hi there, yesterday I updated some play store apps and a while later the tablet rebooted, it does it constantly. That is all I did in the past few months, I haven't installed a newer rom for a few months.
In Download mode, I see an error I haven't seen before: RP SWREV A3. I was on Resurrection Remix 5.7.4 (android 6). I tried re-flashing the rom from TWRP but I think it reboots before it completes flashing. I tried flashing with ODIN Stock 4.4 and 5.1.1, it finishes installing but it keeps rebooting at the Samsung logo. I don't what to do since I didn't do anything except update my apps... Please help
Here is the recovery.log:http://pastebin.com/raw/Kt5SDECf
Hey mate
That isn't fun but when I have installed stock Rom's via Odin I too have been stuck in the logo. Usually if you then go into recovery and wipe cache and do a factory reset it usually solves the issue, I would assume you have done this, if not give it a go. Be patient sometimes it does stay on the logo for a few minutes whilst it provisions the ROM, best of luck.

I think you should try a stock firmware and I think it a bootloader issue which you can get past with your original stock ROM. What was the last factory ROM you had 4.4.2 or 5.1.1? Download a stock ROM and flash with an Odin version above 3, good luck.

Thanks for your reply,
With a stock Rom, I am able to install completely with ODIN but it still keeps on rebooting, I installed 4.4 and 5.1.1 from my region and other regions, even the last stock one I installed (ODIN doesn't fail, in fact it shows that it installed correctly). Through Recovery, it switches off before the install is complete, and then it keeps rebooting just like when I try with a stock Rom

Mate on the stock ROM you say it keeps rebooting, can you bring up recovery? If so you can wipe cache and do a factory default, this may resolve the issue, Failing that if you can get TWRP on it you can try and wipe all files from the system internal storage. Then try and install the stock ROM and try and load it from there.
I think in ODIN too you can wipe the partitions, you can also try that as a last resort.
You can also wipe away the entire internal storage file system in the advanced system settings and start from new with a custom ROM and install these off the SD card.
Good luck
