s7 edge started to freeze, bootloop, stuck on logo etc - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

hi. i have a brand new phone s7 edge sm-935f to be more specific if this helps
got it in june. and now from a few days my phone started to freeze during gaming lets say that is a bigload or something and sometimes even when i wanna browse the gallery or even do simple stuff like calling someone..... i don`t know what happend...
this happend since i did the update on december? doesn`t matter the last big update.... i`m on forums 3 days now.... aand since this happend i knew that people are having problems like this... but still so i did the big damn update... and this happend
and now i`m trying to downgrade my phone... dld the firmware from sammobile? the site that everyone says... don`t know
i don`t know what to tell you more guys. i need some help i can`t do this on my one.
as i understand if i can enter in recoverymode blabla it`s not hard bricked? so that`s a very good thing so this means that this problem can be fixed.
i can load the phone by doing some forced resets.
i did hard factory reset.
i did try to flash stock firmware with odin... and kinda still nothing... after doing this i installed nfs no limits to test the phone and still the phone frooze and bam samsung logo we meet again.
i really don`t know what to do anymore.
does it has an importance if the phone came with " hungary firmware " and i dld the uk version ? maybe this could be the problem the language? don`t know
i need some help please i`m desperate.
thank you very much
p.s sorry for my bad english
edit1: didn`t root my phone didn`t try to install a custom thing on it, i started having this problems like 3-4-5 days ago after i did the last update in december can`t remember it.
edit2: dld the romanian (orange version ) gonna see if this works.... but after odin finished flashing the firmware i had to force restart the phone so it can boot... i quess this doesn`t work, i`m gonna dld the 2 versions of firmware of " hungary " and gonna try with those 2... will update when i`m done. in the meanwhile please tell me how i can fix this faster
edit3: i did manage to play a little bit of nfs no limits with this romanian (orange version ) but it frooze and restarted... i will try to install the hungary firmware and see then.

odin stock firmware, get TWRP, flash a custom rom, problem solved. If that dint solve it, you might have a hardware issued which means you are out of luck, need to send in the phone.

i really don`t want to loose my warranty by installing a costum rom on my phone....
as i know if i do that will **** up my waranty right?
any other suggestions?

You mentioned in initial post you would be trying certain stuff. What's the phone status now?

Try the APB1 of 2016.03.11 from SamMobile

phone status right now is still in the same status... tried to flash the 2 hungarian versions.. nothing.... even if it boots if i try to do something it goes in bootloop again... i`m trying to run an antutu benchmark....
some guy that works in a phone service place told me this: he things because of the update samsung rolled out the phone rams cpu is starting to break... because the update wasn`t tested enough,,,, don`t know what to say anymore. right now i don`t have time for the phone. i replaced it with other phone till next year then i`m gonna try to make it work again.
jonrayne i`m gonna try that firmware next yeah.
thanks

up. i think i have to change my phones motherboard.... because of the new update i think becuz of the bugs maybe it ****ed up my phones components i don`t know. if nothing works i will have to do this change. it will cost me 120-130$.... do you guys know any other option to try and fix my phone? i need to try everything before i will spend this money

Hah, sitting in exactly the same boat as you after the last FW update, my thread is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/s7e-suddenly-bootlooping-dying-t3528827

up
any more suggestions?
or do i really have to go and change my mobo?
edit1: is there a way to test any part of the phone ? to see what part of the phone is fckd up? i tried to run an antutu benchamark when the phone worked a little bit but the phone went in bootloop at cpu test and ram test don`t know.

hey guys. i think i might have a fix for this sh1t
found on some forum i don`t know if it`s safe to post smt from another phone android related stuff if it`s safe i will paste here the post on that forum.
i found out that a guy with the same problems just like me and the same problems routine.... installed a nougat beta firmware and his phone worked after that. now i don`t have time to find and search a " valid " nougat beta firmware because i`m not home... can you guys please tell me if this is true or if somebody tried this option to fix this sh1t?
found out that many people have the same problem just like me after doing that update from samsung.
now my question is where can i find an " official " nougat update firmware to download. and try this because i don`t wanna go and pay 120$ to switch the mobo and then have the same problems.
saw a guy saying that there is one on sammobile but i don`t really have time right now to search for it. can smb tell where i can dowload one?
thanks
please smb reply
edit1: sorry for my bad english.

up
tried to update the nougat beta fw but nothing... it gets stuck at " erasing blue screen " think after odin finishes to upload the fw to the phone....

Same problem here! What is your phone status now?

sound like a strategic move by samsung to force u replace motherboard again and again until u decided to give s8 a try. then u realise , **** it. get a cheaper phone with similar spec.

[Q] Updating to KitKat

Ok, so i am reposting this hoping that someone could help me with my problem. maybe I have not explained it enough the last time.
I am still not able to update my g7102 to 4.4.2 kitkat, it always goes well everytime i try to update it via Odin (from Sammobile) or OTA (450mb). but here's the problem, It always gets stucked at the screen where I get the phone model with "Rebooting Recovery" in blue. I had to wait for around 20mins before it go to android animation where it has a green line below showing that its applying the update, then it goes to the setup wizard but touchscreen doesnt work. I tried turning it off an on but I had to wait for another 20mins and touchscreen still doesnt work.
I want to try anything first before going to the service center and pay since I got this from a different country and dont think if it still has warranty.
I really want kitkat on my phone. I hope someone could help me with this.
Thanks guys!

i think i ****ed up my phone(galaxys6 edge), i hope someone can help me out,

next thing i did was to try recovery with samsung programma smart switch.
also fail. (now i have this logo An error has occurred while updating the device software. use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch pc software) while powering my phone.

If you're still able to get into download mode try rooting your phone, install custom recovery and boot into recovery.
Then flash a custom rom
After that if you want stock again test if Odin works
@Ticky-Nax
Odin fails to flash if the firmware isn't the right one for your phone or you've got a bad download.
Look on the backside of your phone. There's some text. Search for something like SM-G925 and another letter behind it. Now visit http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and insert exactly the modelnumber from your back. Now search for a firmware from the Netherlands and download it. Last of all you need to flash it again with Odin and it should work.
@mattan1999's method won't work because you killed your bootloader I guess. This means you really have to reflash a stock firmware with Odin
I hope this helps a bit

[HELP] its Urgent,Important,why no one cansolve it??????

Whatever happens to the phone, if the phone turns on, doesnt have any hardware issue it can be revived.
The universal method is flashing stock firmware through odin
Download your country's note 4 firmware from sammobile and flash it through odin
Works most of the time
For any more help pm m!
yeah. try flashing samsung stock firmware with odin. have you done it

YEP Odin flash is most of the time a good fix.

The same occurred for my LG G3 D855 which has erased its IMEI just for trying 'restore upgrade errors' in the LG mobile support tool. From that onwards I have firmly decided not to flash manually in any way except when official upgrades / uupdates are released via KIES or via OTA update.
Please do not flash by your own as it is always risky. It is not a PC where you can take out the affected hard disk and fix it in a working PC and backup the data.
To all manual flashing persons :
If your phone succeeds in manual flashing, donnot brain wash others to do the same. Not all persons always do R & D in android like you.

Thanks for the reply but the main problem is that any OTA that comes to note 4 i download them and the device says to restart to recovery to install the Update and i say yes but when it goes to recovery the recovery wont function well since it shows dm-verity error and supported API : 3 the update process fails to complete . My imei is as cool as always i havent had a problem with IMEI since i bought the phone
at least 10000 people have note 4 and none has had the problem ???? REALLY ?
seems like im pretty f***ed up

dear chappati , according to that video i need a physical thing which is called a BOX and a software called GC PRO because that guy had my problem and fixed it with a clicking , but im reasearching for 5 months and nothing comes out . i need information PLZ
Hi, i used to had that problem too, when i first flash a custom rom to my N910G i back up my stock rom.. everthing including EFS.. after that then i wipe everything like normal procedure when u flash a rom. till then 1 day i wanna go back to stock rom i accidentally ticked EFS while i wanna restore that stock rom back up and then i thought it was nothing serious until i flash stock rom with odin and when i boot into stock recovery that dm-verity message was shown, did so much research but no luck. my n910G was on a Singapore firmware, that time it had a update i just try my luck by downloading the latest SG firmware and then that message was gone! m now already on MM no problems like that anymore

S4 half-dead

Hello everyone,
I have a friend who uses a S4. He was on marshmallow 6.0.1 twrp3.0.2.0. Suddenly the phone turns off, and wont boot anymore to android.
We tried to wipe data+cache+system+dalvik, and install MM 6.0.1 again and install stock 4.4.4 and 5.0.1. All led to fail.
Is it a pit file case or a broken bootloader ? Or it might be some sort of hardware issue ? Thank you.
Could be hardware.
What is the Odin error message when trying to flash stock roms?
It might be a hardware.
No error occurs in odin. It flashes and passes !!
But when i try to boot, the phone always gets stuck on SAMSUNG.
Yeah, you're not doing anything wrong, probably a hardware issue

It's probably the GPU.
Recovery and download mode don't need the GPU to function, so that's why they work.
But android does need it, so that why it doesn't work.
I took the phone to a mobile shop today.. The guy told me that overheating caused this.
Very bad news
But this is so weird.. We all know that the s3 at previous versions of android OS used to boil on moderate~heavy usage and i'm still on my s3 since 2012, and it still didnt show any kind of hardware-related problems... But anw i think i should stick to a safe side and start backing up my important stuff online

Galaxy S5 + Root safely.

Hi guys, today I made a big mistake by thinking that it would be so easy to root on my S5 +, I was wrong, because it appear that I had the bootloop problem, i resolved it by mistake i was so lucky, I tried to put a BootLoader on Odin on AP section, an error occured on my phone, It reset it and it did come back to life Yeah WTF right ? So now that i've got my phone back ! I'm happy but still, I'm worry about my sim and I want to know if someone is listening to me (because strange things happened lately), that's why I did some research and It appear that an app does exist to prevent such thing ! it's called Snoopsnitch, Amazing isn't it ?
I've got hope that you might be able to help me to root my phone properly this time and avoiding the loopboot issue. If you can led me to do it, it would be amazing.
There is my config. I wish you a good day, night or whatever you are doing on this planet. Kiss. :victory:

Sorry i'm new and i'm not allowed to share my image link so I had to trick the system ><
Thanks for your time and your answers guys. :highfive:
Oh hi, im having the boot loop / logo problem too.
could you explain more clearly what you did to resolve that and is it still good to this day?
ive already used odin3 v3.11 and put the latest stock firmware successfully but the phone still boot loops or if lucky it will get passed the carrier screen (O2) but then as soon as i restart the phone it will boot loop again. (or boot loop randomly, if i dont restart it myself, eventually).
I havent tried TWRP or PIT as im a basic user and just wanted the stock rom.
Any updated advice? ...im worried its the memory/emmc/hardware prob
thanks
