Samsung S4 mini GT-I9192 Help with Cyanogen Mod 14 Booting Loop - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So 3 days ago I updated my stock kitkat rom to CM 13, but I realised that marshmallow cant write on my sd so i tried a couple of fixes flashed on my device, namely the latest sd fix (2.9b) and so far so good except it didnt solved my problem, so I tried flashing the 1.9b version of the fix through recovery mode, after I finished flashing the TWRP apk asked me if I wanted to install the su apk, I didnt, so I clicked the reboot option instead except it didnt rebooted my phone so I held the power button until it turned off, next thing i know I tried turning my phone on and It gets stuck on the blue mascot booting animation for as long as I let it sit.
I already tried flashing a new CM (14) and factory resetting all to no avail, basically Im blind as to what i must do now. ANY help is welcome.

You cloud try to flash the newest twrp: https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxys4minidsdd.html

Softbricked please help

Quick FYI: I have been messing with ROMs for about a year so I am pretty advanced in troubleshooting but i cant seam to fix this.
So I've been running Cyanogenmod 10.1 for a couple of months with no issue. CM just released a new stable version so i went and upgraded to that, a few hours later I noticed decreased battery life and on that particular I really needed battery life. So i went where the CM updates are i saw it still showed 10.1 as download so i hit install in hopes that I could roll back. rebooted show the progress bar of installing and then i was stuck at the galaxy s 3 splash (with the CM logo) and after multiple reboots could not pass there.
I then went into download mode and used ODIN to flash the stock rom everything wen fine until i went to reboot. I see the samsung logo, and then the GS3 splash screen, and the AT&T splash and then back to the pulsing samsung logo and it stays there...
Please help guys! And yes before you ask I did wipe the cache and re flash with the same problem!

[Q] Stuck in boot loop after failed CM12 update

Tried everything I could find, so decided it was finally time to come here. I was happily running CM11 for more than a year and saw that CM12 was available. Used the CM app on my phone, did the whole Windows part, the update started, then failed. Now my phones boots and gets to the first screen after, and for hours the arrow spins round and round.
Tried Vol+/Home and Power, the screen flashes something real quick and it reboots. When I try the same with Vol-, I get a screen that says it's downloading, but nothing ever happens. I'd be happy getting the stock Samsung ATT ROM, CM11, anything so the phone would work. I even tried seeing if I cold flash various other ROMS with Odin to no avail. Must have brain damage (exhaustion) because Odin isn't seeing the file it wants in any of the ROMs I've downloaded.
Thanks in advance.
Before flashing anything else, flash back to cm11 and confirm the bootloader currently installed on the phone.

This doesnt quite seem like a boot loop... Help?

So my phone has been perfect for over a year. Within the first month of owning it I rooted, installed TWRP, and jumped on CM13. Been updating nightlies all year long once every week or so and enjoying the phone. Its really been perfect. Tonight after work I jump in my car, throw it on my car charger, and drive home. When I get home I notice for some reason I have no cell service (Emergency Call Only) so I reboot. That was the end. The reboot got stuck on the CM boot screen flashing the circle out around the CM face over and over and over. So, I pop the battery, try again, same thing.
Well, being that I have rooted and flashed for years now I figured Id wipe dalvik and cache. Tried that, same thing. Did a full wipe and reinstalled the nightly from my SD card. This time I thought I made progress as it set up all the apps. Then it just hangs on "starting apps" and then it sits there forever. Never boots. Doesnt loop or restart or anything, just says its starting apps.
So, jump on here and find the bootloop issue. My serial is 505x so I was wondering if maybe thats my issue. Decide to download the all in one flash zip from here...

and I flash that. Stock rom works without any issue. Fired it up, logged in, no problems. Huh. Do a restart and even though I flashed that file it still shows bootloader unlocked as the LG logo comes up, and boots into TWRP as normal as well. Figured well I flashed a stock rom, lets give CM13 a try again. I download a fresh nightly through my pc and transfer it over via usb so I know its good. Full wipe, flash, reboot, hangs at "starting apps" again.
Now I am lost. The stock rom sucks and my love for this phone is based around what it is with CM installed. Am I missing something here? I really want to get back to CyanogenMod and away from the clunky slow stock rom.
Any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you all.
EDIT: Well went through the Android setup steps after flashing the stock rom so I would have a phone until this was all figured out. Turned out its not working. After setup I am not getting "Process System Isn't Reponding: wait or close" No matter what I do the phone is so slow or laggy I cant use it. Its trying to download my apps and restore my phone from my Google account but it just hangs up. No idea what to do at this point. Is my kernel messed up? Its a totally clean flash. What the heck. 3am, I give up, hopefully someone has insight in the morning. Thank you all.

You really have to investigate by adb. Look into the dmesg output and logcat as well. Maybe your sdcard is corrupt or 100 other issues are possible as well. What device do you own? H811? unlocked?

There are several users reporting that the latest cm version bootloop the best option is to start in download mode and Flash with LGUP Stock ROM.
You could also try to boot into Download Mode and then flash the latest twrp and then Boot into Factory Reset Mode again

Clinically dead Redmi 5A - please help

Hi to all, I just want to ask for some advice or tips. The thing is:
I have one old Redmi 5A Riva. It was lying in the drawer some time, so I decided to try to unlock the bootloader and flash some custom ROM.
So, I unlocked the bootloader - OK
Then I flashed TWRP - OK
Then I decided to make root on stock firmware - OK
Then I tried to flash Lineage OS 17 - after flash it stopped booting.
So I tried to flash Lineage OS 18 - it started booting again but I found out that phone doesn´t detect an USB cable, so I wanted to flash some other ROM instead.
But after few moments TWRP suddenly disappeared (volume up + power on stopped working, only vol. down and power on worked to fastboot) - kinda weird, I said to myself Now I am f**ked up because Lineage 18 was not rooted, I wanted to do it later, so I couldn´t use TWRP app to reflash it.
But after few moments there appeared stock recovery menu, so I thought okay, maybe its not dead, so I try to flash just stock rom. I tried MIUI 10, but again - not booting.
So I did wipe again and tried MIUI 9 - flashing via fastboot and used flash_all.bat attached to rom - it booted up and worked, so I enabled USB debugging again and tried OMNI ROM. I flashed it, after flash it boots up, but after few second screen goes black and nothing else happens.
I am kinda annoyed with this , I flashed many phones, but only Xiaomi makes these weird problems.
Can someone help me to fix this?

Stuck on boot logo after flashing (the wrong thing...)

Hello!
Today I started to install TWRP and flash RR. After a few problems with Odin, I successfully installed TWRP 3.2.3 on my phone.
I have tried many times to install RR because each tutorial said different ways and I still do not have much knowledge about that.
3 hours ago I tried to install RR for the x time and tried to install from zip folder RR the boot.img file. But I did not select it as boot but as recovery.... After that I rebooted. And since then the phone gets stuck at the boot logo.
I cant't enter the download or recover mode. Can only restart it by holding down all buttons or the power and volume down.
I know that it was not the best idea. My phone is also 3 years old now. And that's why I'm thinking about buying a new one.
My new one would otherwise be the Samsung Galaxy A21s.
