Try a spare battery. And check if your battery serial starts with BD . Then you need to change it right away.

Remove battery and wait 30 seconds then replace the battery then plug the charger
into the phone and wait 20 minutes before turning the phone back on.
If it does not bootloop it means the battery just needs to charge.
Good luck!

switch off ur phone n charge it fully n give a factory reset from recovery mode.

Try flashing an older GB full wipe original ROM

no need to downgrade , download full rom 4.0.3 from sammobile site, flash it via odin,
then proceed the usual way to root and for recovery install proper cf root

4.0.3 ROMs are not wipe
You can, as a last resort use repartition and a pit file in odin

brother my battery was working just fine untill i installed the custom rom
It's possible it was low prior to flashing the ROM, and died in the process of flashing. Flash stock 4.0.3 through ODIN, keep battery on charge for awhile, report back.

Yah its working fine but it will drain your batt after flashing a rom... what is your battery level when you flash the rom? Coz you need a 50% above before flashing...

[SOLVED!]Need help in unbricking my phone

Hello guys,
I am in a big trouble!!
I have a galaxy s4 i9500. I installed prism barebone by aliraqi and left it for chanrging and after sometime when I looked into my phone it was looping at the intro screen (i.e. the screen which shows galaxy s4 i9500 in white on a black background).
I cant even go to recovery or download mode.
When I connect my phone to charger it shows the battery logo with a bolt in it and it gets really hot and it doesnt show any charge in the battery.
Please help me ASAP.
EDIT : It was a problem with the power button.
please try this .. daring to reply you .. remove the back cover .. remove battery .. remove sim card .. remove memory card .. keep the phone in open for 40 mins ..
u can buy a universal charger to charge the battery.. then reinsert everything back.. then try to check if you are able to go to download or recovery mode .. u can also try to go to safe mode and check if you are able to charge ..

Bootloop Note 4

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 T-Mobile SM-N910T and it got in a bootloop and i have tried flashing the stock firmware and it wont fix. i have also tried the power and volume up button and restoring the phone and it still wont work. Help please

I'm having a very similar issue. When I try to boot it up, it will reboot every 5 seconds, unless it is plugged to the wall charger. Also, it will not reboot when unplugged and on Download/Recovery mode, which makes this issue very weird.
Have you tried turning the phone on while plugging the charger? I'm thinking it is a faulty battery issue, which seems to be very common with these phones.
**EDIT: I got a new Anker battery and my Note 4 is fully working now.

Do factory reset from stock recovery after flashing stock rom it will boot fine.

Try flash 6.0.1 PK2 firmware with PIT file and choose in odin options "nand eraseall" this will erase old nandroid completly and will replace with new on your device and do factory reset after flashing.
IN ODIN THERE IS A TAB FOR "PIT"YOU HAVE TO UPLOAD THE PIT FILE GIVEN BELOW WITH FIRMWARE FILE AND FLASH THEM TOGETHER.
TRY ON YOUR OWN RISK.
PIT FILE LINK BELOW FOR N910T.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 batteries are mostly faulty. Get a replacement battery from Anker and it will work like a charm.

I have tried that but still its not working
Then just wait till the battery run out, orrrr connect it to a USB and just flash something that you know won't work and then it should auto restart the phone
Did it work?
