S8 950F Stuck in Boot Screen. I've tried everything. - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

So, pretty much a long time lurker and much lover of this site. I do quite a few roots on various devices for my job (computer forensics) and I've rooted a Galaxy S8 and its stuck on the Samsung boot logo and I desperately need to get it out without wiping the data on it!
The annoying part, is I did this a few days earlier to a test S8, all the same apart from the build number and it was bloody flawless. I got root access. Did it to another device and it crapped out.
I used cfar_samsung_sm-g950f_dreamltexx_nrd90m.g950fxxu1aqi7_adt0.zip direct from firmware.mobi (for both devices - first was obviosuly a different build number).
I'm in a bit of a panic mode at the moment. I tried this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/how-to-fix-twrp-bootloop-t3513580
After attempting root on my replacement phone, I could NOT boot to system. Each time I rebooted to "System", it would boot straight to TWRP over and over. I tried reflashing stock files. No verity patching.. etc.
The Fix:
Download the latest version of TWRP specific to your device here https://build.nethunter.com/test-builds/twrp/lge/
Flash the file and the device should now be able to boot to system. If that doesn't work try another version.
I spoke to @jcadduono about my problems and he believes there may have been something weird going on in the misc partition. Reflashing TWRP will/should fix the problem.
Thanks @jcadduono for all the support.

But it did not work. I can get into TWRP Recovery with it (and into Download mode) but TWRP wont kick it out of the boot loader issue. I've tried installing super user and all sorts, but I can't mount Data to actually achieve anything?
Please, any help is much appreciated. If there is anything obvious I'm missing please tell me.
Thanks,
DG.

First of all, I would like to ask for mod/s to have this move to proper thread section.
What is the exact model of your S8?
What is your TWRP version you installed?
@DanGlee
Can you show us the picture of twrp error you get?
You mentioned this
"but I can't mount Data to actually achieve anything?"
Can you send us the exact error of twrp and post it in here? It could be that data partition is corrupted, and if it is, then there's no way we could get your data back.
But if you can get /data partition mounted, then you could make a backup in twrp and reflash everything to stock.

Apologies for not posting this in the correct place. It's a minefield of threads.
I don't have the phone infront of me at the no, bit will do it first thing in the morning.
Thanks.

you cannot mount data if you don't FORMAT DATA first

Yes , forgot about that.
If data mounted is inaccessible, your only option is to format data partition, which sadly, erase all your data from your phone.
Sorry @DanGlee you won't be able to retrieve your data anymore.

Thanks for the replies.
Its definitely not sounding good.
As an update as promised anyway, here are some details requested.
Its an Galaxy S8 SM-950F (UK) with Build Version ending ...AQI7
(Running Android 7)
I've put TWRP 3.1.0-1 on it.
I can't really see any error codes or anything, but here are some images of it failing to install SuperUser.

Thanks for the responses. You guys genuinely are helpful and if you say its FUBAR then I trust your diagnosis. (I think I was just clutching at straws that I might be able to salvage something!)

You could reboot the phone into recovery and connect the phone to the computer. You could then mount the USB storage onto the computer and simply copy paste the zip into the storage. Although I'm not up to date with the features of the current TWRP, but the mount USB storage option was present in a previous version of it. I dunno whether it's still there or not, but still worth a try.
Thanks a lot! it worked

Bricked phone. Being a massive dumbass

Hey. I've bricked my Huawei P10 lite, literally just for the sole reason alone that I'm an idiot. I was in the process of relocking/unrooting when I did a massive choke - I've relocked the bootloader and IMMEDIATELY closed the goddamn tab. I haven't written the code down anywhere. When I've rebooted my phone, I discovered I have exactly 0 ways of doing a wipe, since the TWRP was obviously gone.
Hitools returns that the phone cannot be recovered due to not being supported.
Recovery? There isn't one. eRecovery always returns "failed to get.." yatta yatta yatta, It's not working.
The only thing currently reacting to my commands is fastboot. And, being the mr. obvious, I cannot push files onto the phone through fastboot to restore it by the full package, which was pretty much my only option at this point.
There aren't any replacement motherboards available for the P10 lite on eBay or pretty much anywhere else I could think of.
If there exists any good soul that can tell me if this is in any imaginable way reversible without getting a cracked screen phone and swapping the motherboards, PLEASE, PLEASE, do tell me.

Little Help needed to get my 6p alive again

please help me.
I have completely wiped my device. nothing is there in internal storage. Just the TWRP folder.
it has unlocked bootloader and twrp installed
but it is the unrooted device.
so please tell me what is best for me?
shall I root it or can I directly go to stock Oero?
I have already downloaded stock file '8.1.0 (OPM6.171019.030.E1, Jul 2018)- angler-opm6.171019.030.e1-factory-1abcb2f1.zip'
I am confused, how should I proceed?
please explain me stepwise, so I can save my phone.

You will be fine I wipe my internal from time to time. Just make sure you update your bootloader and vendor. If you use the flash all I'm pretty sure it's done for you but if using fastboot method follow the steps in the hiesenberg guide. Just so you know once on the latest Oreo builds from what I've read can no longer downgrade. I haven't verified or read up on it myself but maybe look into if you think you might want to go back to nougat .

i have tried that earlier, but still i got the red triangle.
since i failed to go to stock today i installed latest twrp-3.2.2-0-angler using latest SDK tool.
then i flashed Magisk-v16.0 and then ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.4-20161008-angler and it immediately went to google logo and stuck there.
just use this to get back to stock https://developers.google.com/android/images
all you do is boot in to fast boot plug into pc and run flash all
there are ways to save data but you already wiped so no need
if your still confused just look up a guide of how to flash factory images and install the usb drivers

It looks good but didn't seem to flash radio and bootloader maybe just not in screen shot should boot but if it still won't boot in to the stock recovery and factory reset might help
You could have the bad big cores try flashing one of the 4 core fixes. Also I wait to flash magisk until after first boot. It can hang you on the Google screen .

Boost E4 1766 Only Boots to TWRP

-Screwed up somewhere as my goal was to install LineageOS and try to use it on an At&t mvno.
-Package was unopened for months, so it still had the older firmware.
-Everything seemed okay after I unlocked the bootloader.
-Then I installed TWRP.
-Did a backup of everything using TWRP before I was going to try and root the device.
-I knew something was wrong when no verity opt encrypt and Magisk gave some error message and failed.
-Now whenever I boot the device, I get a N/A in the top left corner and then goes into TWRP.
-Restoring the backup using TWRP did nothing.
-I thought this would be the solution (dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc bs=1M), but I get the bad key first and then N/A before going back to TWRP.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e4/help/moto-e4-metro-variant-rebooting-to-twrp-t3825841
What should I do now?
Any help would be appreciated. Even links to other posts that dealt with this issue is fine. Be aware that my skill level is only a little better than following Youtube videos.
Thank you.
N/A is normal. It will be there forever after you unlock bootloader. Did you format data in TWRP and type yes to format?
Thanks for the reply.
As far as I know, I did not format within TWRP. Is that my next step? If not, please advice what should be done next.
My concern is something is wrong because both the suggestions you gave in that other thread did not result in the phone booting to Android properly.

once you flash TWRP you have to flash a no verity zip and probably magisk and definitely format data to remove encryption for your phone to boot.
Installing no verity zip and magisk produced the following. Did I do this properly because there looks like multiple errors?

I can't read that, LoL. Maybe... Failed toount data? That's because you're still encrypted.
Put the zips on external storage. Format data, type yes.
Now reboot recovery (not system) then flash the zips.
And you can take screenshots in TWRP.
Thanks so much.
I followed your instructions plus the one from the other thread. Phone is now able to boot to the stock Android. I guess my next step is doing a little more research before trying to install LineageOS to see if the phone works well enough on a USA GSM mvno.
One more question please.
On the E4, are the system firmware updates mandatory? I read that users are first notified and then forced to take the update even if you Disable Automatic System Updates.
Is that true? I wish to stay with the old firmware because people have posted that the new firmware eliminates any chance of using a USA GSM sim on a Boost 1766.
Thanks.

Use caution going with a custom ROM on this device, especially with a mvno. You may score far more hurt than benefit. Also consider what you are trying to accomplished going with custom ROMs given the clean stability of Moto stock ROMs. Toss in Xposed framework and a few modules like Gravitybox for full control/customization.
OTA updates can not be processed with a custom recovery (one of several prerequisites that your device no longer meets). You may get notified but the update won't install; you'll be dumped into TWRP. You can easily disable the update engine and corresponding notifications on a rooted device.

Galaxy J5 (2017) stuck in recovrey mode.

Hi. During the update to Android 10 the phone turned off and after switching on it goes into recovery mode.
The phone is not mine and this description was provided to me by the owner of the phone. I was unable to see the phone directly because of the quarantine, so as a first solution I thought about a restore via odin. Has anyone had this problem? And is there a less drastic way than Odin to solve? Because the owner has some data that he would prefer not to lose.

How did you get android 10 on j530f?
I get the same messages when I enter recovery but I'm able to get out. You could use odin to reflash the firmware but keep all the data.
You won't be able to do a thing with Odin if the device doesn't have an unlocked bootloader and USB debugging enabled which I doubt it has seeing as it's a stock update that was attempted.
What happens to the device once plugged into a PC? Is the data corrupt or is the device recognized and files can be seen?
I have the same problem with almost the same recovery messsges. It also says dm verity failed. Odin and samsung 300k tool both dont work.

Not even to flash a stock firmware? It seems strange to me, in the past I have often used odin on my S2 also for the stock ROM.
The device always reboot in recovery, I don't think the PC can see it.

Hi, the details were given to me by another person, the only thing that I (and this person knows) is that the phone during an update has turned off and reboots in the attached image window.
Thanks for the tips, I will report it to the person concerned, hoping that he can install the twrp.

Put the j5ylte update onto sd card.
Get the update from updato or sammobile or somewhere.
Then reboot stock recovery and apply update from sd card. Or sideload it using adb on a computer. Not very complicated at all
Install the stock rom like i described here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/help/to-stock-rom-t4099857

Hi,
can you give some details what has happened?
I think you have to install TWRP. Otherwise you have no chance to debug anything...

I cant even access download mode neither can I apply an update from SD card. It says dm-verity failed. System is completely stock. I didn't modify anything.
