Cannot boot into system after TWRP - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hello everyone,
today after I tried to install TWRP I just cannot start android, samsung logo is just flashing. But I can still get to TWRP with key shortcuts on phone. I dont rly know what is wrong, I did everything thanks to the instructions on the internet. Im rly lost. Tried to install new firmware via Odin just like TWRP, but everytime when I try it, the Odin fail this action.
Do you have some tips or advices?
Id be grateful.
Thanks

--Problem Fixed, just got totally newest firmware and flashing + rebooting is fine now, androind and phone running--
Now, I would like to ask.. Every time, when I flash via Odin3 (AP) the TWRP, its semi-successfull, after flash, I get to TWRP.. And thats all.. Whenever I want to install something, I see every storage 0 B, and after rebooting to system, Im again where I was before. Just flashing Samsung Galasy S8+ logo with no android startup.. So again clear reinstall of android.. And this is even h appening after full fresh reinstall of android.. What Can I do badly?
Thanks

What twtp version are.you using ?
What are your steps to installing twrp ?

I got it worked after third succsessful instalation of TWRP and formating datas. Fortunately..
Anyways.. I tried what I wanted with rooted phone and switched again to official OEM without root.
And have one more question for you.. Is it possible, to install or move APP(/fodler with app) to folder with system apps without rooting phone?
Thank you.

[Q] Problem after flashing CF-Auto Root S5 SMG900F

Hi guys im a bit rusty again in all this since i rooted my S3 and HTC desire years ago ,
I have an Galaxy S5 SM-G900F (bought seperately without any provider)(EU)
after 2-3 months now and getting the official android 5.0 upgrade, i thought it be time to Root my device again ,
i followed this link and how to from ChainFire "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696537"
wich i been using on my Galaxy Tab 7 Lite(T110) as well and worked flawlessly
I followed the exact steps as usual , rooting went fine, phone rebooted as it should , i updated SUPERSU and its binaries and installed Ericson's Busybox,. ,and everything worked as it should ,
then i put off my phone and boot in to recovery mode to flash the Philz_touch_6.26.1-klte.zip (touch recovery)
when im in my stock recovery i facepalm'd myself because i hadnt put the flashable recovery file on my internal storage yet ,
so i wanted to reboot back in the phone so i could put the file on my internal storage so id be able to flash it from stock recovery ,,..

Did you use the latest version of ODIN to flash the CF Root?
Think Odin3 v3.10.6 is the latest current version
If you used an old version, try flashing it again using the new one, other than that, I can only suggest trying to fix permissions in recovery if it has that option, TWRP should have it, and finally a factory reset, which is not ideal

i used Odin3-v3.07
but after flashing the root everything worked installed superSU and updated it and its binaries and installed busybox,.
it all stopped working after i went into Stock Recovery and back
id prefer not to do a factory reset Wipe,. unless i really have to to fix it ,.
im going to try reflash with the latest version then,.
i have swapped SD card to galaxy tab to put the Flashable touch recovery on the SD card, and swapped back to the phone so i could Flash the Recovery when im in stock ,.
but ill try flashing Root with latest Odin first.. thank you

the new odin is a bit less informative (to me as beginner)
i managed to use AP to flash the root again
all goes fine , it reboots
and its now upgrading android as it says and opening app's
then Black screen again,. i klick a button,. and it shows me again all the STOPPED msg's of all internal apps that are crashing,. litterally all apps,
what can i do ?
If clearing cache didn't work, fixing permissions in recovery didn't work, only thing left I can think of is factory reset

i cant fix persmission in stock recovery and flashing the philz touch recovery didnt work something about not verify signature,.
al i can do i guess is wipe data factory reset ,.but im affraid it wont fix anything
Try TWRP recovery instead
http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/229
No reason a factory reset won't fix things, worst comes to worst, flash the whole ROM again from ODIN, that will fix everything as it wipes and reinstalls the lot
Grab a stock ROM from sammobile
Thank you for all your replys mate..
I managed to get it working again by doing a factory reset in stock recovery after I flashed root with latest odin
Even tho it was my last resort there was nothing else I guess .
I'm not sure tho if this will happen again when I go back to recovery like I did when this all happend the first time while I actually want to flash a more advanced recovery then stock recovery ..
But I'll take my chances and just leave it as it is
Again thank you for your help and suggestions .

Pleased you got it working again, I would say if you think you might want to flash another advanced recovery in the future, it might be best to do that now since you have already factory reset the phone, that way if this happens again, you don't lose months of data and settings and files that you have gathered between now and whenever you decide to flash recovery

i have actually ,. i installed the TWRP u mentioned,. by taking there app from the Playstore,. and flashed the new recovery, within android and without rebooting (just in case)
im used to the old CWM thats why i first wanted the Touch recovery as its based on it,
but always open for trying new things
Thank you
Good stuff
Id say the whole entering recovery / apps crashing thing was a problem with the ODIN version you used to root, too old for Lollipop is my guess, so I wouldn't worry about entering recovery again.

Samsung Galaxy SM-G900H Problem

Hello All, i am almost new to this forum, i had bought my new SGS5 SM-G900H like 4-5 days ago, i had before a SGS4 i9500 witch i had similar problems and success and all things, i tried everything in android world, custom recovery, custom ROMs, flashing stocks ect..
The Very first step of playing in my SGS5 System was rooting it..
How i did that?
1. cf-auto-root
2. odin
3. bootloop
I was sure it was for my specific device.
Then i discovered that it was likely a wrong way of rooting it? since i watched a video on youtube and it showed flashing the supersu package via a custom recovery.. but how shall they flash a custom recovery without being rooted?
Afterwards like a miracle, i download kies 3 and plugged the phone to my laptop and launched kies, and alone the phone booted into recovery mode witch it have been stuck like 5 mins at SGS5 Logo..
What I've done later?
1. Wipe data/factory reset ( using custom rom )
2. rebooting, enjoying life saved
3. rooting the correct way by flashing supersu ( it actually worked )
I wanted to get back to the stock and wanted to permanently clean my device from being custom so i went to supersu app and chose option " permanent clean " something like that, and the phone rebooted..
i went to recovery mode to wipe data/factory reset again to fully clean the task, then i got my self stuck in boot recovery loading, it just showed up the SGS5 Logo witch freaked me..
i just went to odin and flashed the custom recovery ( hoping it will work ) everything passes in odin excepting the phone..
And from there, i am stuck till now with no recovery booting and no normal boot, only what can i do is go to download mode
Recently i am now downloading stock for my device to flash it soon..
i just wonder what i've done wrong, and help me for next time ( i would appreciate help tricks, small notifications..)
Thanks!
i also would like to know if i returned back to stock i'll be having back my recovery ?
Update : i left phone the night and came back and turned it on normally, he booted to recovery then i wiped and restarted and everything went ok.. damn i am getting pre-messed up by this phone..
now what should i do if i want to root the perfect way and have some custom recovery thing for 900H

Help Needed: Recovery Issue SM-t230nu

The first issue I started to notice after rooting via Odin & TWRP was when trying to flash the iOS and WP ROMs from this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/3oss-project-samsung-galaxy-tab-4-7inch-t3081478 , it would fail. I was able to successfully flash the Google ROM from same post. I believe it was with one of the other ones that it even said successful yet when i went to reboot said no OS installed. So, I figured update my TWRP to newest version, maybe that was the problem. Well after updating, now when i go to wipe/factory reset it either says unable to mount or it doesnt even make it that far and reboots system. I tried flashing PIT file with Odin and issue persists. Everything still works smoothly but any help fixing this issue would be much appreciated as I do not want to dirty flash anything. Thanks in advance.
So now...after flashing stock firmware, it boots all the way to nook screen (right after samsung logo) and stops. I can boot into TWRP but it still says unable to mount data. Also, in TWRP when i click mount, the only one already checked is cache. I can manually select all others except data. When i go to install, the internal sd has absolutely nothing on it...really hope i didn's completely mess it up, sometimes my eagerness to learn gets the better of me. Thanks again for any help!
I have the same issue, im stuck

Screen stuck on preparing to start.. starting app.. after flashing crdroid 6.0.1

I had rooted my phone by unlocking the bootloader using adb fastboot method, then flashing the TWRP revocery V2.8.7.0, and then flashing superSU v2.46.
After rebooting my yureka plus, and going to recovery it started cynogen recovery only, even though update cynogen recovery option was disabled.
So I flashed TWRP again and without rebooting again, just flashed crDroidAndroid-6.0.1-20160827-tomato.zip and GApps zip file from internal memory. The phone rebooted and worked fine after that..
but while playing a game the phone automatically rebooted and ever since have been stuck on Preparing to start.. Starting apps..
I had disabled the developer options because I thought it was working fine.
The phone is working behind the preparing to start screen.. I can hear the message notification and caller ringtone when someone messages or calls.
Any suggestions what I should do now? I have tried doing a factory reset from recovery but the problem persists.

Try flashing it with stock rom or simple wipe the whole system and cache from twrp from advance wipe option ( but backup first ) and again flash the custom rom u used previously.

It still opens in cyanogen recovery only, and there is no option for wiping dalvik cache or system. Since the usb debugging is of,f I cannot used cmd to flash twrp recovery again. By the way I still don't understand why twrp recovery is not loading.

I still have no idea why it got bricked. So after searching on google and youtube I came across this: https://androidmtk.com/download-yu-stock-rom-for-all-models . I followed the steps and now KitKat is running except launcher is not working, instead play store open's every time I try to go to home screen. So tried the nova launcher but that still doesn't work with home button, have to open through playstore->my apps, every time. But rest is working.

Custoom ROM installation failed (stuck on pre-boot screen)

So I've installed TWRP onto my S8 and have wiped it completely, though I did have to change and then change back the file formats so that TWRP would register them correctly
I downloaded renovate ice 1.1, copied it onto my sd card and then flashed it everything installed well
When I then reboot it doesnt get past the first screen as in showing (not sure if it freezes at this point but have left it for 2 hours so Im guessing so)
Samsung Galaxy S8 POWERED BY android
Then the only thing I can do is get the phone back into recovery mode (then when I go to reboot it says there is no OS)
Before I installed the custom ROM I had an error message stating that the integrity verification had failed, I pressed on believing that this would be fixed once I had installed renovate
I know that my phone is a exynos variant, is there any way to check exactly what variant withing TWRP
The download mode is still working
Extra Information
and also when I go into TWRP it asks me about if it should be only system read each time it starts up
it also prompts for me to install the app when I try to reboot through TWRP though I believe that is normal

I've tried to install the Batman ROM but to the same avail,
still prompting me to install the TWRP official app (but not always)
am going to try reinstalling twrp using odin
could it have anything to do with knox values changing (need to research)
installed batman rom after using Odin to BL some new firmware(think that's what its called) onto the device
now am stuck on the next boot loading screen
will wait for some time to see if its my phone
-so 1 problem was due to the previous stuff on the device hopefully this means that the integrity verification thing is fixed (not sure how to check
-still havent re-'downloaded' a new twrp via odin, may try next
-could also try reinstalling batman as it was installed before the firmware, may be worth it
-could try to use default rom (need to find download page)
not sure about next step
reinstalled renovate and booted up and got back to the verification failed screen, may have something to do with me selecting knox when I installed it
-niw will try to solve integrity verification problem as when I try to reset it wont work w/ twrp
Maybe too many little things that are causing issues, maybe rather just use Samsung Switch and do a recovery and it will reinstall as per stock, then try the rooting, custom ROM thing from scratch. I know I battled with mine, got TWRP installed but coult get passed samsung boot screen. So i did used Samsung Switch recovery function and got phone back to stock, now I just use package disablers to kill stuff and all is well.
at first, why did you choose renovate 1.1 when 2.2 is availiable?
i would start from scratch again...
flash stock rom via odin. boot and test device. there should be no problem, after this, flash twrp again and put latest renovate rom on memory or external usb device.
with aroma installation you can choose to full wipe your phone. this should make no problems.

could you give me a link to where I can download the stock rom from, that would be great

I tried to open samsung switch earlier but it believed that my phone was no longer supported and I guessed that this was due to the rooting, what mode where you in to be able to connect to samsung switch
not sure now but atm I cant get into TWRP anymore
Put phone into download mode, then use recovery option on switch.

as long as you are abel to go into download mode, everything is fine.
flash stock again -> twrp -> custom rom with full wipe in aroma installer
reverted back to stock os using odin
checked that all is well and there was no lasting damage (knox was still working fine)
reinstalled twrp, same problem happened again with twrp not recognising the internal storage so had to reset the file format
flashed the batman rom, now am back at the second boot screen and cannot get past

with internal storage you mean data partition?
sorry, i forgot. thats a common known issue with twrp , wipe data partition in twrp menu, after that you are able to install custom roms
