Samsung Galaxy Core Prime might be soft bricked. - Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers

So I have TWRP 2.8.7.0 on the phone, and I accidentally went to Reboot -> Download, and then after like 20 minutes my phone shut off (battery might have fallen out) and now I can boot into the TWRP recovery mode, but when I try to boot the phone, It goes through the Metro PCS splash screen mostly, and then near the end, it freezes, and vibrates 3 times every few seconds. (pattern: 1.2...3...........1.2...3) It will do this in a continuous loop until I unplug the battery and plug it back in. I am running Android Lollipop 5.1.1. How do I solve this?

Repeat intermittent boot loop

hi all,
Just come back from holiday and SM-G928F edge plus (european model) battery was completely flat.
I charged the mobile and booted it up, loaded into Android then sounded like a lots of notification alerts then phone made a loud buzzing noise and crashed/auto-reloaded.
Since then it had gone into a boot loop. Tried holding power and vol down to reboot phone. Initially this function worked then no longer worked. Phone still stuck in boot loop...
Could not get into safe mode (hold power and vol down then release power)
Tried in recover mode (hold power, vol up and home), tried clearing cache took ages about 1 hour, also tried the format option, rebooted system and still boot loop..
Tried going into Odin mode (power, vol down and home) , used ODIN s/w and installed the latest XER version firmware, got success message but still boot loop...
Interestingly when I left it to constant boot loop, eventually it booted up Android now. However once I start using the mobile it intermittently reboots the mobile and then goes back into boot loop again...
When I did manage to get into Android I tried using an app to check the mobile health, strangely I notice it said I only had 1gb ram spare and the rest was used when mobile was factory reseted and I didnt expect so much RAM in use. During stress test mobile crashed and gone into boot loop again...
I am not sure this was affected by an auto update that may had gone wrong.
I don't root, just used stock firmware.
UPDATE:
Left mobile in boot loop until battery went flat, fully charged it and now can get back into Android. But it started to auto update some app and then auto rebooted/crashed and went into boot loop again.
Please help.
Thanks
Is there anyone who can help me please?

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 reboot loop but without working recovery mode

Dear Galaxy tab experts!
I have read on several places in the Internet that some people has suffered
in a boot loop. The Internet recommends to do a hard reset via
the recovery mode. OK. Unfortunately, my device fails to enter the recovery mode.
My Samsung Galaxy tab 4 SM-T530 has been working fine for for about 2.5 years
until last weekend. Now it does not boot but stays in a reboot loop. That
means that The boot logo shows up for a while and disappears after
about 10 seconds.
I was searching the Internet and I wanted to try out the recovery mode
but I am not able to reach it. When I press Power + Volume Up + Home buttons,
the label "recovery booting ..." appears in the upper left corner of the
display for a while and thereafter, the boot loop continues.
Fortunately, I am able to shutdown my device by pressing
the Power + Volume Down buttons.
The tab has been used about 10 hours per week. I have never uploaded
any ROM or firmware.
The boot loop has started when I was charging my device. I used the
official Samsung USB charging connector as always. During the
charge process, I wanted to see the charge progress like I
have done it many times before but I only saw a grey battery and after that,
the boot loop has started.
I have no problem to do a hard reset and to wipe out my data.
My device contains no important personal data.
What do you recommend to get my device working again?
Thank you in advance!

Help! Galaxy S7 Edge bricked...

Hello all. Since nougat update my phone has started having boot up issues. I had software update a month ago and after it was updated it failed to boot up. It just froze on Samsung logo screen and i had to wait for the battery to drain to start it again. So that time it started after a good few tries. Now last night it had another software update and again after it was finished it rebooted and failed to boot up. Gets stuck on logo screen/ samsung screen. I tried booting in safe mode.. nothing ... gets stuck again on black screen and have to wait for battery to drain. When it gets stuck i can't do anything not even reboot with any of the buttons. I've tried going into recovery mode but once it boots in recovery it shows Installing System Update or something simmilar and in 1 second gets stuck untill battery is drained again. So basically i can't do anything on it. It won't boot up in normal/safe mode or recovery mode... Any suggestions ? I've tried samsung switch on my PC but it needs the phone into recovery mode and i can't get this far. What else is there to do ?

Need help to unbrick my phone

Hi,
I have a Note 4 t-mobile that is "brick" right now. and I hope if anyone offer assistance.
It is running Android 6. Ever since the last upgrade the phone would freeze and reboot on its own. I fixed that problem by installing Wake Lock. After that it would still experience sluggish at time but the phone is still very much usable.
Lately, after watching a bit of streaming video the phone would slow down so much that a reboot is needed. But yesterday my last reboot turned my phone into a brick. After that reboot the phone rebooted itself to the download mode. So I took the battery out, waited for a few minutes and put the battery back in and started the phone. Instead of booting normally the phone displayed the message including "set warranty bit: recovery" and then followed by the flashing TWRP splash screen. By "flashing TWRP splash screen" I mean the TWRP splash screen ( with the TEAMWIN logo) would be shown on the screen for a second, then the screen black out for a couple of seconds, then the splash screen is back on for a second, and the screen black out for a couple of seconds, etc, and never successfully boot into TWRP recovery. I had left the flashing splash screen overnight and nothing changed. Connect the phone to my pc via usb and fastboot wouldn't recognize my phone when phone was flashing the TWRP splash screen. So I tried to flash TWRP again by starting my phone in download mode "volume down + power". When I connected my phone to my pc Odin recognized my phone. But when I tried to flash a custom recovery (TWRP or CWM) it seems the download started but never finished (on the phone I could see the progress bar started but never progress further).
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated1
Additonal info
I just wanted to add that my phone is still running the stock ROM.
Problem solved
Problem solved. Once I used a different cable and the download process actually worked and I was able to flash stock ROM using Odin.

LG G2 frezze and CPU getting warm

Hey,
today I had a freez with my G2 LOS16 during normal use (Browser, gaming). Since this freeze the G2 freezes after booting. Sometime while the LOS logo is shown or sometime the phone boots to the PIN Lock Screen. But the phone freezes every time. I've tried to boot into recovery (Power + Vol down, didn't work) or with reboot into recovery. The phone reboot wit a black screen (it is on but nothing on it).
I've diconnected the battery from the phone and waited af few minutes. But is the same result. Is this some kind of hardwarefailure?`
I manged to boot into recovery. But after a few seconds in recovery, the screen was also frozen.
After a normal boot the phone freezes after a few seconds an the CPU is very hot (like running with 100% all the time)
