Note 5 Stuck on boot screen and won't open Recovery mode !! - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I recently tried rooting my phone ( Samsung Galaxy Note 5 SM-N9208 ) using custom firmware through Odin but when it had finished installing on to my phone it was just froze on the boot screen (saying "SAMSUNG Galaxy Note5 ... POWERED BY android"). I tried all kinds of ways like try and turn it off and on using the reset method (Volume down + Power key) but that didn't work.
I even tried to put it in Recovery mode but it just just puts me on the same boot up screen (saying "SAMSUNG Galaxy Note5 ... POWERED BY android"). The phone can be put on downloading mode but I tried to install the stock (orginal) firmware for my phones model (SM-N9208 ( duos ) ) but in Odin it just says "Fail". My Phone is still stuck on the boot screen and I don't know how to fix it and I think that if I take to to a repair shop they might say that trying to root your phone damages warrenty and not try to fix it. PLEASE HELP !! :crying:

Hey mate.
This happened to me.
1st I downloaded the stock firmware zip for my country there is a thread in general for all firmwares.
2nd unzip and flash AP file in AP section of Odin.
Wait for it on flash then you'll be good to go.

Which country firmware did you use?
Which country firmware did you use?

It worked ! Thanks
I actaully did finally use this method but I had to use Taiwan firmware as there is not English one but I don't think that matters, thanks :good:

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Tab blank screen after flash attempt

Hi,
Please help. I tried flashing the Galaxy Tab with some firmware on samfirmware.com for North America and not sure what happened but now the Tab is completely blank and not responsive. When I connect the USB to the computer, it does recognize that the Tab is connected though. Please let me know what I should do to fix this. Thanks!!

Is it possible you flashed the wrong FW? After flashing was the tab able to reboot?
Try wiping cache and do a factory reset. Volume-up+powerbutton. You will see in the middle of the screen a little triangle. Then push the volume-up button again. Then you will be in the recovery-mode. There choose wipe/cache and the wipe-data/factoryreset.
If that not helps try flashing another FW. The Rot-hammer i.e.
Fixed it!
Actually, somehow I fixed it now. There was nothing on the display at all. I could see from Odin that it could sometimes try uploading the firmwares. What I think worked was I pressed the Home + Volume Down + Power to try to bring the Tab into download mode and then I pressed Start on Odin immediately to try uploading a different firmware. There was no display on the Tab itself so I was not sure if it was actually in download mode.
Anyway, I'm glad it's working fine now.

please tell me what firmware you flashed...please im stuck and depending on what firmware i flash i can hear it start but still blank screen
Same black screen
I can get Odin to recognize my tab, windows 7 can see it and I can flash to it, but the screen is black all the time.
Has anyone had any luck?
What do samsung use to fix this? I've seen a repair/service program from ZTE for some of their devices that I believe was procured from an employee of ZTE. Maybe there is something like that around?
<edit>
I also flashed a rom from samfirmware, so I guess the issue is a locked bootloader from a stock rom. Anyone know how to fix this?
I too am having this issue with sawfiremware image.
i can can tell i am in download mode but i am unable to flash the EA24 firmware.
Anything that can be done?
Thank you!!
My Tab's screen won't turn on at all, even when plug-in, even that Odin said that flash was successful. But after connecting it to PC with Odin opened (Odin recognized it), loaded all files needed for flash in Odin, I pressed HOME+Volume Down + Power, the device auto-dismounted from PC, and reconnected again, I pressed start in Odin and after finishing updating firmware, the screen was working again.
Good luck to everybody! I'm happy now
what firmware did you use? thx

[Q] Possible Unbrick For Galaxy Tab !

Ok guys now i have bricked Galaxy Tab.
Main problem is my customer wanted to install custom rom without rooting device. So there is no recovery mode. I flashed with odin and Heimdall but stuck at Galaxy Tab screen.
i found a solution. There is a recovery section in Heimdall. if someone tell me or send me recovery file i can test it and i will tell the last situation. If it works we will find a solution. if not ...
PS: if u have other solutions please offer me . i didnt find a suitable solution.
Thanks for reading
We would need to know what kind of tab.
it is euro tab
Can you get back into download mode (yellow android digging)? Or sometimes a phone-pc! picture? Then you can just reflash.
i can enter download mode but after re-flash system cant start. bec there is no recovery.
flashing has no relation with root... you can flash firmware on a not rooted device WITHOUT any problem.
recovery is inside the firmware you flash....I think you got some confused ideas...
i am reflashing device it reboots and stucks at galaxy tab screen.
i checked 3 - 4 firmwares same error.
i check
adb devices
Result :
xxxxxxxxx RECOVERY
adb shell
Result :
- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -
Any ideas ?
try this it might work
hold the power off button for 10 second
to make sure it really powered off
hold down all 3 button together
see if it power up in recovery mode

You don't flash with adb. Flash with odin3 or heimdal.
man i am flashing with odin it reboots and stucks in Galaxy tab screen.
3 button combo stucks "Power Reset or Unknown Upload Mode " screen
Finally ;
Reflash with odin and heimdall :
Result Stuck at Galaxy Tab Screen. Adb result Device in Recovery.
Attempt a full flash with firmware that has recovery? MoDaCo is a good one. Doesn't sound bricked to me, sounds like your rom is not compatible with the firmware.
Are you flashing a ext4 firmware?
I got this tab stuck at the galaxy screen when I attempted a recovery to a non ext4 backup. Sounds similar.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
i cant flash ext4 bec it stucks at %100
i re-tried it it gots FAIL at %100
This is a gsm tab, correct?
Have you tried any other kernels or roms?
Which are you currently trying to flash? Did you unlock the bootloaders?
Sounds like a revert to stock and 2nd attempt are in order.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
i tried to flash PDA section it gave me error. i flash with PHONE section (via odin) it resets but still same error.
it is gsm euro tab. i tried original 5 firmwares
i tried Roto, JM6, Modaco, Overcome still stuck at same state...
i still think main problem is No Recovery partition in device.
If you can get it into download mode, then there is still hope...
Unfortunately, I don't have the answer...
When mine was stuck at galaxy screen, and wouldn't even go into recovery, I flashed a new kernel and all was well.
I also never used Odin, always Heimdel.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
as i read in modaco :
after kernel update enter recovery
but no recovery after kernel update any ideas
Likely because you haven't gotten a complete flash... At least that is how you make it sound.
Are you sure you have and are following the instructions correctly?
Unlocked bootloaders and proper use of odin are the two things I would check right off the bat...
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
i am not sure that if my bootloader is unlocked or not.
i flashed with odin that is fine what else ?
Last resort I have for u
If u are able to get in download mode
Go get roto jme V4 full version
Flash it with Odin
Please read instruction for installing roto jme v4 full version
***FLASH ONLY WITH ODIN***
FOR GSM TAB ONLY

PLease Help Urgent my only phone doesn't working!!!! May be Soft Brick

PLease Help Urgent my only phone doesnot working!!!!:crying::crying:
Hello Guys, Please help me because my phone is not working and this is the only phone i have so please help me soon.
What Happened:-
I had bought this phone 3 years back in 2012 after 1 month of purchase i updated my phone to official Jelly bean via Samsung kies but my phone had issues like blank screen failing to install official update, So i went to samsung service centre first they refused to service and told me that my motherboard is to be replaced because emmc not working but later they say no need to replace motherboard and installed official update and phone working fine later on i rooted my phone and installed various custom ROMS.
I had been using AICP rom based on kitkat and it is working fine. Some call comes and my phone launcher changed so i goto settings change my launcher but it doesnt change so i rebooted my phone. After that phone booted and AICP bootscreen logo comes after then automatically phone was switched off, Again i switch on the phone but same issue so i go to TWRP recovery and do wipe cache and wipe partition and rebooted my phone but nothing happened galaxy note logo appears and again phone goes switched off.
Problem:-
After that again i went to TWRP Recovery but now failed to go in Recovery mode. Then i go to Odin 3.07 and trying to install official jelly bean via Odin & it displays Pass. Again booted the phone samsung logo comes and then language settings came then after pressing next button phone switch off. After that i tried to install custom ROMS, Clockwork Recovery , Safe Kernels, and official ROMS but situation is same as earlier. Then i install PIT FILE via odin 16 gb pit file with official rom odin shows pass but the situation is same.
Then i go to samsung service centre they go to download mode and where it shows custom binary count:- 1 they told me that you install custom rom i said yes but right now it is on official one ( As i installed Official Firmware via Odin ). They told me that as your phone is old and has no warranty so we try to install our official firmware via odin with all files Like Pit File, Phone, Csc etc. but there is 50 -50 % chance if we fail then you have to replace your motherboard costs around Rs 8500/- or USD $134 which is huge money . Now after installing official firmware with all files got success in odin Phone rebooted with samsung logo and settings come after that phone again switch off means it fails according to samsung service centre.
So after that i become sad but i tried to go to recovery but now good news is yes i get samsung official recovery working perfectly now what to do ? How to check is my emmc corrupted or not ? How to install Lollipop Rom of bauner? How to make my phone working ?
I search xda forum on my issue but not getting exact my situation so Please Help me guys fast .... i think my phone is soft brick not hard bricked.
Thanks in advance for cooperating many needful person and making life easier with sharing of knowledge.:good:
Hi, try going back to official firmware ( i know you already have) , but look for a firmware package with "phone", "pda" and "csc" files to flash, then you're back to square one and can go to a lollipop rom. I had a similar problem and this fixed it

(SOLVED)Soft Bricked 18200N

HI I have a Samsung galaxy s3 min GT-18200N (i think that is the value edition) I had rooted it and I tried to install TWRP with Odin. It said it went ok but when I try to boot it it gets stuck on the first screen (The words "Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini GT-18200N" written in white) It does not move on to the next samsung logo screen.
I can access download mode but not recovery mode. I tried using odin to flash firmware found on sammobile.com it said ok but it still wouldn't boot to anything but download mode.
Please can anyone find any way to un-softbrick my device. Thanks
Note: I can't get SDK tools to work on my PC
If someone could find a package that I could flash using odin that would be ideal.
Edit Thanks everyone anyway but i managed to fix it
Hey. How did you fix it?. Same Problem here with stock firmware.
I don't know what the problem was the first time. Maybe it was odin or perhaps the firmware was dodgy. I just went back onto sammobile.com and tried another firmware from sammobile and it un bricked it. Just try another one and avoid ones specified for carriers. [e.g don't use Germany(Vodafone)]
In case you don't know how to flash the firmware here is the process
1 download and unzip the firmware, it should be a .tar.md5 file
2 start odin
3 click AP (PDA on newer versions)
4 select your .tar.md5 file
5 it will say "checking md5" or something
6 after about 10 minutes it will say "leave cs"
7 now connect your phone(in download mode)
8 odin will say "added"
9 check re-partition is not checked in options tab
10 click start
11 after about 5 minutes it will finish and the phone will reboot.
Like I say I don't know what went wrong the first time after trying a different download it worked. Try the above again with a different download and see if it un bricks your phone. If not then say what went wrong and I'll try to find another solution
