SM-G986U Stuck at Verizon Logo - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

Hi,
I have a Samsung Galaxy s20+ 5G Model SM-G968U VZW variant. The phone powers on, goes past the Samsung Logos and then gets stuck with the Verizon Logo on the screen with the dots moving beneath it. I have left the phone like that and it runs for hours until it eventually shuts off (it gets very hot while it's running.) I am able to boot into Recovery Mode and Download Mode. I have NOT been able to boot into Safe Mode no matter what I try.
What I have done so far:
Booted into Recovery Mode and Cleared Cache Partition
Booted into Recovery Mode and "Repaired Apps"
Flashed latest stock ROM using instructions from the following thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...e-links-and-flashing-discussion-here.4054629/
Most important to me is to get the data which is on the phone. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.

[Q] Sprint Galaxy Nexus won't enter recovery mode

Sprint Galaxy Nexus
Model: SPH-L700
Yesterday, I was just using my phone normally when it just shuts off. When I attempted to turn on the phone, it was stuck in a boot loop. I can't get my Nexus to enter recovery mode, but it will enter ODIN mode. I have tried numerous different stock tars to get my phone into a working condition, but all of them got stuck on radio-cdma.img. After waiting almost an hour, I removed the battery and booted the phone up, but it was stuck on a screen with a 'PDA..!..PC' image on it. By searching for solutions to that problem, I figured out that flashing an LTE tar would allow me to enter ODIN mode again and the boot loop was back. ADB won't recognize my phone at all. I'm at a complete loss and I have no idea where to go from here.

Help With Complex Boot Loop

Hey everyone.
I recently just got someone's well used Note 4 because they got it stuck in a boot loop. I powered it on, it'll show the Note 4 boot screen where is shows the title of the device and the Samsung logo, shut off, and then repeat. I attempted to put it into recovery (vol+, home, and power, and when the Note 4 screen comes on, let go of power) but it continued the boot loop.
I can however put it into the custom ROM download mode, and then maintenance mode with vol-, power, and home. However, this arises MORE issues, as when I factory reset it, it made no impact, and when I attempted USB debug mode, it went back into a boot loop.
Any ideas? I've had plenty of experience with a OPO and such, but haven't touched a Galaxy phone in ages until now..
Appreciate it!
I had a similar issue with one of my droids. Consider flashing the stock recovery via Odin, make sure there's no SD card in it and as always clear cache and factory reset via recovery if possible. Good luck!

S4 mini (GT-I9195) boot loop, even in recovery mode and after Odin PASS

The phone is a Samsung Galaxy S4 mini (GT-I9195). I believe it was originally on the EE network, but then used on the Three network. I'm not sure if it needed to be unlocked for this to happen, or if it was purchased unlocked.
Starting with the phone switched off in each scenario below:
If I switch the phone on, it vibrates once and the Samsung logo appears. It then goes into an indefinite loop of vibrating twice, and the Samsung logo appearing, vibrating twice, etc.
If I plug the phone in, the battery appears with the grey circle inside. Without me doing anything, it goes straight to the Samsung logo, and then to the aforementioned indefinite loop.
If I switch the phone on, holding the home button and volume up to enter recovery mode, it goes to a sick robot with 'No Command' underneath and some text that reads 'Manual mode, appling [SIC?] Multi-CSC..,. Applied the CSC-code: BTU, Successfully applied multi-CSC'
I'm not sure what the 'correct' firmware to flash is for the phone or how to find out. I have flashed some 'BTU' 'stock' firmware a couple of times using ODIN; the result is 'PASS' but the boot loop continues. I have also flashed TWRP recovery using ODIN; the result is also 'PASS', but the boot loop persists as before after launching recovery mode.
Similar posts have been raised before, but I've never seen it answered.
Why is this happening, and how do I fix the problem?
Thanks.

I need some help with fixing a Samsung Galaxy S3 (SPH-710T, Sprint) that cannot boot to custom ROM

Hello All,
I recently found a Sprint Samsung Galaxy S3 (SPH-710T) that cannot boot to its custom ROM, CyanogenMod. The only thing I vaguely remember is a few years back when a coworker of mine had pulled out the battery when the phone was either rebooting or installing an update. The phone still boots to download mode, but when I do the combonation for recovery mode (Volume Up, Power, and Home), it shows the startup logo and blue text at the upper right corner, but then immediately shuts off. I have tries using download mode to install TWRP, but every time I do it, the program on my computer says that the process was successful, but the phone shows no sign of the program being installed. I have also been successful when downloading CF-Root to the phone, but the attempts at installing TWRP after that yeild the same result. I saw a video detailing a de-bricking SD card, but got scared after I learned that the card were not interchangeable between models. I am here for any questions you might ask and I will happily try any of the solutions provided by people.
Thanks so much for all of your help,
Max
