Never thought I'd be the one to create a thread like this..
After I flashed the OKV4 ROM, strange things started to happen (this was after a full wipe). Apps kept force closing, etc. Later that day, when I picked up my phone, I saw the samsung logo flashing over and over. Making me unable to enter recovery.
Download mode still worked though and I proceeded to flash a stock firmware via ODIN. This did not help. Oh, and the Odin flash succeeded, without rebooting my phone though...
So, I'm still stuck with my phone which can't seem to get out of this strange loop.
HELP :C
I remember reading somewhere here that if you have flashed a diff FW now and then a possibility the last recent kernel is still in the system folder etc....this is maybe the cause of the bootloop.
Since you had confirmed going to download mode is possible..this may work logically... Why not do the following :
Get your phone rooted via Recovery (there is a thread here by The-E)..Once done flash arco68's CWM Recovery....Boot to recovery n do this :
Factory Format....Wipe n Clear including Delvik...Then go to Mount n Storage wipe every single folder...System...Data...Etc (this will wipe every single data left behind but I assure you the CWM will not be wiped) once done reboot n put the device into DL mode and use Odin to flash back to the stock FW.
From this moment the recovery will be replaced by stock version and the stock FW will be restored....once it boot up..Walla as I had done this over two times :
Best of Luck !!

I think you misunderstood me :/
This isn't the ordinary bootloop where the boot animation plays. It resets literally 2 seconds after starting. This makes me unable to enter the recovery at all. Thanks for the effort tho.
Tl;dr:I can not enter recovery mode.

Hi Bro...
I already discuss it in this Tread couple a days a go
You not alone bro
I ask The-E to mention all Wonder user to get safety flashing
Until this time we didn't get way to fix it yet
Okay so heres the dealio. I am not a noob been rooting, flashing etc. since Cyanogen was actually Cyanogen back in the G1 and Mytouch days. I have read every tutorial available. I have tried Kies, Odin, different USB cords, various drivers, nandroid backups etc. I was on the 5.0 unoffical cyanogen rom I think it was 12-08 or 06. NB4 "MODEM" had the coveted MDL Baseband. I was running CWM recovery. was setting alarms whole screen turned bright pink and froze so I pulled battery waited several minutes, rebooted and it would make it to cm splash screen then go pink and reboot.
First thing I did was try all of my nandroid backups none did any good. Of course I wiped everything before restoring
Second tried several Roms I know worked I always keep a couple on SD just in case ones I have tested and are working
Third I tried to Odin to MDL passed boot loop did this several times with sd and without I even uninstalled kies to make sure no interference
After that I just started climbing firmware mk2, NB4, NH7 all same results. I did each one multiple times evry which way you can imagine
I tried multiple Roms 4.4.2 4.4.4 etc to no avail
Finally I tried Kies. Kies Upgraded me to NK2 still boot loop. Odin NK2 still boot loop.
I have tried super wiping then installing boot loop
I can get into DOWNLOAD MODE AND RECOVERY MODE NO PROBLEM. I can flash custom recovery through odin no problem I have tried Cwm I have tried Twrp. Twrp gives me more options.
Now I have had some success.... If I do it perfectly I usually have to format everything with aromas mega wipe takes a few attempts I can get Danvdh GE 4.4.4 Rom to boot but it constantly vibrates if i do anything like reboot it or anything back to boot loop.
I have checked my pit file and compared to a stock pit everything matches perfectly so I dont think any partitions are screwed..
Knox is tripped who cares its past warranty I am on NK2 firmware. I dont care if I am stuck on stock or some custom rom. I need my phone to work just dont have money to buy a new one.
Please help me. I am not a noob if I have to rebuild the whole system using ADB I will just need some guidance.
****UPDATE***** Currently Have SOPK 4.4.4 from Unified Dev up and running.... No audio at all, much more stability, occasionally freezes will bootloop unless plugged into usb on computer.

Try this. Flash MDL baseband, flash NK2 with Odin, reboot to recovery and factory reset. After that perform a reboot and see if it works. This has seemed to work for a few people that had updated just the baseband and then later tried to flash full firmware and got stuck in bootloops
do you happen to have link to MDL baseband I have the NK2 firmware
I did find this I want to make sure I have the right one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2282342
Also am I flashing these back to back then reboot or flash MDL reboot to download then flash NK2? Just dont want to screw myself any further. Thank you very much for your help Thanks button hit 100x
Yeah that's the one, and just flash the modem, once it's done, do a battery pull, boot straight back into download mode and flash it again. After that, flash full NK2 firmware
Tried it twice with Odin 3.07 and 3.09 still looping.
I do remember having to push the NB4 Modem with ADB while maintaining the MDL baseband if that has anything to do with it.
I saw a pink screen scenario once after water damage on my nephews s4 (not saying you have water damage ) but phone never recovered, not even after disassembly and clean, had limited function, had to be replaced.
Pp
There was never water damage. Its hard to believe that its hardware since I can get dl mode and recovery no problem. But anything is possible. I only get the pink screen now when I try to reflash the 5.0 Cyanogen
ok right now ive got Danvidh GE 4.4.4 pure nexus up and running. its doing a little vibration loop every 30-60 seconds. i have a bug report for whoever wants it. i also have a recovery log from twrp. i'll leave it up and running until i get some advice. i do know if i reboot itll kick into boot loop.......
Update: Ive got about 15 minutes of logcat. and it did reboot on its on back into rom still doing the vibration loop. it freezes randomly no audio. Ill keep running logcat and keep this puppy up till I hear from someone.....
Ok so I'm posting from my SGH-M919. The one with problems. Here's what I think happened, I think while on The 5.0 CM ROM I received the lollipop OTA. This is just a guess as I'm seeing people have been getting OTA notifications for this Device. I'm not sure what I should do. I've done extensive debugging. All hardware looks good from what I can tell. I have tons of logcats and debug files for anyone willing to help. As of now still running DanvidH. 4.4.4 GPE pure nexus version baseband NK2. The vibrations continue. Apparently its due to Google play service update in the last 24 hours and this ROM. Since its literally the only thing that will run on here I'll keep it for now. It freezes constantly, cannot use it as a phone either as it just freezes on the way to dialer. Anyway hopefully someone can help...... Thanks

Can you share a link to this 5.0 cm rom?
Just curious.

Never mind just found it in development.

---------- Post added at 09:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 AM ----------
Just looking over this 5.0 Cm rom I get the impression that this is chuck full of bugs, since the beginning back on 11/13 and just 2 hrs ago op posted an update with potential bugs still present. If I had to have a reliable operating phone this is one rom I wouldn't touch.
Any input from op?

Can you check what bootloader and modem you have now? Upload the logcat right before the reboot happened
OK so I am able to run the 5.0 much more stable. Dialer crashes no audio at all system or other wise. It froze then rebooted and back to bootloop which logcats do you want i couldnt get catlog to run on 5.0 but I have about 3 hours worth of logcats from the 4.4.4 pure nexus. what logcats would you like. I also have adb setup and http://www.xda-developers.com/android/advanced-logcat-published-as-a-standalone-tool/ it was running great on 4.4.4 but couldnt get it to retrieve on 5.0
I did get about 2 hours of smoothness from 5.0 just no sound and dialer crashes no one else reporting issue. Texts work fine
NK2 boot loader with Twrp recovery
whats really really weird is I have to connect the phone to computer after flashing to get it to actual start the rom
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.

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.

Hi everyone
I'm new to the whole ROM flashing and using Odin. I had a bootloop problem and recovery mode showed all the options but has a green android man laying down with red icon above him and No Command below the android man. Tried the factory wipe and cache wipe but it gives some red writing with the word failed in the coding and the word error under the android man. Tried to flash a stock ROM from sammobile using Odin. Odin gives a pass but the same problems persist. Can someone please help?

Btw my phone passing ODIN and stuck in "installing system updates then erasing"
hello
i need downgred g925t frome androide 7 to 6 or 5.1.1
can anyone help me
im flashed phone whit dis frimwer from anroide 7 G925TUVS6FRC1_G925TTMB6FRC1_TMB
im dawnloaded this frimwer 4Files-G925TTMB3EPD1-6.0.1-By-NoLoGiG but not work or not flashed have error
So my issue is pretty similar, see what you guys think. i been trying everything i can think of.
i updated from xtrestolite 2.1 to 2.2 with out wiping. everything worked fine except when i would make calls, the other people could not hear me. so i updated the bootloader and modem again (i had done it before) and the problem persisted. i flashed back to stock and was getting stuck at the s6 edge screen. the only way to get around this was and get my phone to boot was to flash aou kernel. i was still having a similar issue with calling so I download a modem from a diffrent server and all of a sudden, it was working again on stock firmware... AWESOME!
now that i had all that done and my phone working as it should, i reset my phone for the first time and i got the FRP lock, wont boot phone because custom kernel. GREAT
I then flashed stock of6 again, the tar ball, and the 4 piece version. no dice
i then found of8, tried to flash that still no dice.
id love to flash twrp and load a rom on, but FRP is a alsjdflajs.
the phone will flash successfully, but upon reboot, it will go into recovery, run its course, reboot, and get stuck that the galaxy s6 edge screen.
i use the vol and power click during recovery to see what its doing and everything seems to go fine. it will then say failed to mount /data. im hoping flashing this with the pit file will work, but i cannot download the pit file from my work computer (hahah its blocks on 4shard and mega).
anyone have any other advice? i will update if i figure it out.
Regards team,
-Mad
p.s. none of this is xtrestolite's fault, that rom has been nothing but good to me.. my phone has been picky though. after 5.1.1 i had to flash a custom kernel in order for the digitizer to function properly.... any help is appriciated guys.
SO UPDATE!
nothing good, i tried the pit with of6 and of8, no dice. still stuck.
anyone got a s6 edge w a broken screen? you can claim it lost for all i care.
no one?
i guess if anything past flash stock firmware people dont know? was hoping for alittle more insight.
im sure if i could flash a kernel i could get it to turn on, but FRP has be at bay...
no help for you bro...Samsung just needs to release there software fixing for this comunity...I'm looking a for a dev to answer my question in this section about just flashing zip files in twrp instead of using odin or whatever other methods that can avoid all these problems that are all similar...hopefully in next few months it will be addressed

i updated my phone yesterday since there's a new update available and after an hour it restarted and keeps on restarting after 15secs. Even i do something or not, or even in safe mode.
i tried extracting all my files using twrp but upon checking that i still have fastboot bootloader (unlocked) but my twrp is gone and its back to colorOS recovery. i tried online update to keep my data but still the problem continues. i tried flashing twrp using adb but its not detecting my phone since it can only open for 15 secs before it restarts again. but i managed to see that OEM unlocking and usb debugging is turned on im running out of options here. i cant just reflash a new rom/ota without getting my files. any chance anyone can help.

UPDATE:
i gave up all my files just make my phone works
i tried changing stock OS to custom ROM (lineage,Evolution) still getting the same issue that its still restarting after 15 secs or just after wifi connection in the setup.
also tried format data, formats cache, dalvic, system and data in twrp then back to fastboot.
since ""--disable verity" is unrecognizable what i did is just flash is "fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img" then flash twrp then flash the rom again but still im getting the same outcome.
tried going back to stock (got the ozip file from realme)but getting zip compatibility error and after i deleted compatibility.zip then getting error 7 so tried deleting asserts from updater-script but still getting no where so i tried using orange fox recovery. it does install but still the issue persist.
any other ideas for me to try guys?
TIA
You must be flashing wrong file.

It seems like you're flashing incorrect OS version onto your device. Note there are 3 different versions of realme x2. i.e rmx1991, rmx1992, rmx1993 with each having different versions of their own.
I've seen rmx1992ex here on xda for custom roms but my device came with rmx1992aex version.
So check your's and flash correct file.

Got the same problem. My X2 is RMX1993.. i think i updated the wrong firmware. My current build number is RMX1993EX_11_C.12 Not sure if it's the same but I've got a feeling that it's not.. found a guide on how to flash the stock rom but the problem is that everytime I use ADB. Reboot to bootloader the phone just restarting. And I think my bootloader is also locked. Any suggestions? Really need your help.
