My S7E suddenly went into boot loop mode yesterday when I was driving and I cannot bypass it. It gets stuck on "showing S7 Edge - Powered by Android." screen.
I have tried the following:
-Enter ODIN mode and flash the official S7E ROM. Bought the phone as a EU model but using in UK. I flashed Nougat ROM of UK and France T-Mobile version. They all passed on Odin (windows) but they still came back to boot screen and stopped.
-Tried flashing Marshmallow version - same issue
-Smartswitch doesn't recognize the phone as plugged in.
I cannot seem to be able to get into wipe cache mode. (Tried to hold Vol Up+Home+Power buttons together before restarting).
I am kind of lost for options on what else to try.
Any suggestions please? TIA

Hi guys first i want you to know that my english is bad...
My phone is G900K - SpaceX Rom 5.0
I am using SpaceX Rom 5.0 for weeks and it is buggy, i experience random boot,app crash,fast battery drain and freezes.
Yesterday i reboot my phone and after "Android is Starting" i got message that System Crash or System UI i am not sure what it is but it has System word in error report. Then my phone didn't start so i remove the battery and put it again. After pressing on the Power on Button my S5 starts and i notice the Blue Light in Upper Left didn't Light Up and my phone didn't boot to 2nd Samsung Logo. When i press Power On Button my S5 will turn on and 1st Samsung Logo will appear then It will Turn Off then Vibrates then goes back to 1st Samsung Logo it keeps repeating. Also i try Recovery Mode but i can't enter to it my phone will repeat the same process as i Turn On my phone. I can go to Download Mode, And i flash Stock Rom and after flashing Stock Rom there's a blue text in upper left Recovery Booting... but its not booting into recovery, It will just turn off again then vibrates then goes to 1st Samsung Logo.
If anyone experiencing the situation right now you can comment
Same issue here. My phone is stuck at RECOVERY BOOTING. Is there anyone who can fix this issue? Thanks.
Boot to download mode (Vol down & Home & Power)
Flash stock ROM from sammobile .com with ODIN
Instructions under the download on their site
Go into download mode and do a firmware upgrade and initialisation through kies3. You will need your serial number and model number( on the white sticker behind the battery. in kies3 go tools> firmware upgrade and initialisation, then follow the on screen steps. I used this when I soft bricked my note 2 when I had it, I personally find it's the best way to restore a samsung device.
You should try first with kies3, it did help me to recover from custom ROM installation.
If it fails, flash stock with Odin3 from phone download mode is your last option.
I'm having the exact same issue! Been trying to flash the stockfirmware, but still stuck in recovery booting loop! Even trying to get into recovery mode has it looping. Kiess 3 says that my serial number is invalid, so matter which number I put in too. Hoping for some help!

Mine is the SM-G900W8 with Telus, so if we have the same model, I could probably give you my serial number cause I never had issues with mine. I know I have read places that sometime when people get stuck in recovery like that, they do a factory wipe and cache wipe in the stock recovery to get it to boot.
This same thing is happening with my s5 Verizon.. Need help to fix this i've tried flashing via odin, factory reseting..nothing worked
Can anybody help me please....thanks
I got stuck at the 'Samsung Galaxy S7 edge' boot screen and not the 'Samsung' animated boot screen and I can't make the phone work again. I got stuck one more time in the same day but at the 'Samsung' animated boot screen and I got out by entering in the Odin/Download mode and installing the stock ROM of Android 6.0.1.
Here is a list with what I tried:
- Force restart (with power button + volume down)
- Wipe cache partition
- Wipe all the data
- Mount /system
- Install stock ROM of:
- Android 6.0.1 (of my country)
- Android 7.0 (of my country)
- Android 6.0.1 (of UK which got stuck at ~90% in the download mode)
- Install root in download mode
The installation of root and stock ROMs didn't affected anything. I also can't get into safe mode because I am the the 'Samsung Galaxy S7 edge' logo not 'Samsung'.
I would really appreciate if anyone could help me :good:
I had this as well. I had to take my phone to a Sprint repair center nearby because nothing worked. Constant boot loop. Off and on Samsung splash screen. Tried flashing stock rom via Odin, multiple USB cables, nothing. I downloaded the firmware for the Korean snap model instead. So my lte wouldn't work, and because I flashed the 4 files( modem, pda, etc.,) said my service provider was KT Twophone service.
But it made calls so I was happy enough. Tried OTA update. Boot loop.
PRL update.. nope..
Took to Sprint and they were puzzled, as the Knox counter had not been tripped and device status was official. Honestly I think Samsung shipped Korean variants to Sprint. Because the bootloader is locked, how can I change the bootloader right? So even tho I flashed Korean BL to it, it still showed Sprint. My guess is you need MSL code from Sprint. Haven't asked for mine yet as I do not own my phone yet so they won't give it out.

Hello guys i have a strange problem. i am using my s7edge for over a year (finally was in batman rom).
After updating to marshmallow i encountered this problem where sometimes rarely my phone reboots (reboot- - show samy logo - then reboot). sometimes after few reboots it will comeback and some other time. i need to wait till it discharges fully and charge it it comes back. (but its so random though. totally happened 3 - 4 times last year)
from last week it happened quite often once a day and from yesterday it keeps rebooting in logo no matter what i do. when this happens only download mode is accessible and twrp recovery is not accessable at all. so i waited till it discharges fully but that does not help.since download mode is accessible i used Odin and flashed stock firmware, still the same result(tried several times). its just keeps rebooting in logo even after flashing with stock firmware via Odin and i have no more options to go for. is my device hard bricked? any more options i can try??? my final hope is someone here will help me.:crying::crying:
Thank you
Oh! I just posted a similar question. After several tries, I sorted out a way to make it boot:
1) With the latest samsung drivers on my notebook, I've downloaded the latest Odin (Odin3_v3.12.3) with this stock rom from sammobile (G935FXXU1DQJ4_G935FUUB1DQJ4_ARO). According to this page this rom works in Argentina and the ARO means it is used on unlocked devices. Then it has no bloatware or any company logo.
2)Charged it for a few minutes until it reached 2~3%. Vol Down + Home + Power (in that order) and entered 'Download mode'. Then plugged it into the pc.
3) Opened AP, BL, CSC and CP files, then flashed it. Once it restarts, try to get it into recovery mode with volup+home+power and charge it. I used a power bank. Then wipe cache and factory reset. Then reboot to system and let it loop until it gets into the OS.
The one I've got in quarantine is working smooth.
Hello guys this is my first post.
I have a SM-G930V Verizon S7 that previously was in bootloop with OREO, but constantly rebooted at the beginning of the setup I mean when it says hello and so on.
I flashed Nougat without problems and booted normaly but then the FRP was doing his work, I could not boot since I didnt know the email or password.
I then flashed a file that I found to bypass FRP and succeded. I finally got it working very well.
After a while when I tried to clean bloatware suddenly frozen and then never booted again, I wanted to root but couldn´t.
NOW when I flash any ROM from Marshmellow , Nougat and Oreo, it says PASS in ODIN but I cannot enter the recovery.
Vol+, Home and Power gives me a blue line top left saying RECOVERY BOOTING..... then a blue screen saying ERASING... and the reboots again and again. The menu that I can get is the Maintenance Boot Mode (Vol- Power). This menu has 4 items:
1.Normanl Boot, 2.Factory Reset, 3.Safe Mode, 4.Power Down, and the only who works is power down.
I don´t know how much batery is left because I don´t know if in this menu or in download mode the battery charges.
I flashed the last OREO from SAMMOBILE, I also flashed the ROM wich I grabbed when using VZW Software Upgrade Assistant which supposed to be repairing the device but nothing whatsoever.
I don´t have any new ideas my head is full and hot now. PLEASE HELP will be appreciated.
So, I rooted and tried flashing the stock ROM (from Sammobile, same country, same exact model [SM-G950F], I already had the stock ROM and had never flashed anything else to the phone other than root, June security update, my phone had July's) to see if I could fix a problem that couldn't be fixed with any other method I had tried.
Everything in Odin seemed to go well, I got the PASS green box at the end. But then the phone couldn't go pass the Samsung logo when booting up. I left it quite a few minutes, before trying to boot into recovery mode and wiping data. Only to realize that I couldn't boot into recovery mode. In fact, I can't even turn the phone off. No combination of hardware keys works other than power button + bixby + vol down, to get into download mode. But that's of no use, because when I plug my phone into my PC (with the same cable and port I used before to root and flash the firmware into it) it is not recognized by Odin or the PC.
It just has the Samsung logo flashing slowly over and over because I can't turn the device off. By the time the battery dies out I'll most likely have the logo burnt into the display.
I also haven't been able to find any help online. Everyone's suggestion is “boot into recovery and wipe data”, but I can't do that.
Is my phone gone for good?
