Stuck in bootloop due to sd maid - Samsung Galaxy M30s Questions & Answers

I installed sd maid and set scheduled run. On morning when I wake up my phone sit on Samsung screen. So I went into recovery and wiped cache and data and reboot. But it still on Samsung screen. So I downloaded stock firmware android 11 from Sam website. I flashed it via Odin but no luck. So I again flashed it this time after reboot I went to recovery mode and wiped cache and data then reboot still no luck it went from powered by android screen to Samsung screen and bootloop. So I tried repartition by extracting pit file from csc and flashed stock with Odin but still no luck it stuck on Samsung screen. Is there any way what am I missing

Stuck and the Samsung GALAXYS4 boot screen

Hi, after flashing some ROMs (Omega) the phone booted normally, installed some apps and rebooted. But after that, the phone stay at Samsung GalaxyS4 screen and no furhter movement... I flashed new Stock ROM via ODIN with NO errors, but again when booting, it stay at Galaxy s4 screen... Tried and flash the PIT file with the stock ROM as well, but the same.. after the flash, it strat rebooting, and stuck on the Samsung GALAXYS4... Any ideas what to do?
Boot into recovery - home/vol up/ power wipe cache, factory reset etc then look for your default firmware from sammmobile and use odin to flash.
Don't mess with pit you will just screw it up doing stuff like that.

firstly flash a new stock rom using odin without pit.. then do a factory reset in recovery
Of course I tried to do this first... But I cannot go into recovery mode. While holding the three keys, the phone vibrated, screen went black... and that is. When release the keys it starts booting but not to go into recovery.. Tried to flash the stock recovery via odin. It flashed, but again - cannot go into trecovery

Try flashing other things with Odin. Like a kernel or CWM recovery. Something might work.
After many tries, I could managed to enter the Recovery mode . It showed no mount of /data... but after Wipe it worked

[Q] Attempted to install TWR & SuperSU - T330 won't boot past Samsung Logo

I decided to finally root my Wifi only Galaxy Tab 4, 16 gig. To my understanding it is the T330. It had the latest OTA - 5.1.1 I believe?
After installing TWRP and trying to flash SuperSU it won't boot past the Samsung logo.
I did the following:
Prior to today I have had the USB drivers installed
Downloaded and extracted ODIN 3.0.9
Downloaded TWRP 2.8.7 Tar file for the T3xx series
Downloaded SuperSU zip file for version 2.46
I opened up ODIN, unchecked the "Auto Reboot" box (after seeing elsewhere that it was needed when flashing the recovery), checked the box for "AP" and selected the .tar file for TWRP. I clicked start, everything went correctly, I removed the USB cable and manually restarted the device by holding the power button. Once it was off I then held the power button, volume up, and home button to boot into recovery, and to my excitement I was greeted with TWRP. So far it looked like it was going according to plan. A screen came up saying that the system was currently read only, and it was giving me the choice to allow the recovery to change it. I swiped to allow it to change it so the system partitions were not read only. I went to the install option, and selected the SuperSU zip file. Installed it, it said that it installed correctly. I went back to the main menu and rebooted the device. That's when things did NOT go according to plan. It played the nice little boot sound, the animated Samsung logo came up, and I waited. I waited some more. I continued to wait. After 10 minutes of the Samsung animation repeating I assumed that trouble was afoot and turned the tablet off and attempted to get back into recovery, which it did. I then turned it off and checked to see if I could still get into Download Mode: and it can and the PC can see it as connected when I load up ODIN.
So I have the tablet soft bricked. My goal was to have it rooted with custom recovery to install roms.
If that's not possible, I assume my best bet would be to use ODIN to push the Samsung files over and flash it back to factory that way, undoing what I have done?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I tried to be as detailed as possible to assist anyone who may be willing to help.

Have you tried wiping dalvik and cache through recovery? If that doesn't help maybe do a factory reset before restoring the factory image?

I tried to wipe cache and dalvik - still gets stuck at the Samsung logo... Tried to do a factory reset from TWRP and after rebooting from recovery it continues to get stuck. I'll try flashing the kernel but I don't understand why that would have gotten messed with from flashing the recovery and installing the SuperSU part.
Okay I take back my statement... flashed the kernel, after flashing did a cache and dalvik wipe and boom... it boots!!! You are officially my hero! Thank you!

Phone randomly died

I have an S4 i9505, never rooted or flashed any custom roms. Running the latest OS version from Samsung.
Phone was on the desk while I was working, suddenly it vibrated and turned off.
Now it's stuck in a boot loop, sometimes gets stuck on the Samsung logo.
Tried booting to recovery, worked on my 3rd attempt. Wiped cache, booted past the logo into the carrier logo and the SAMSUNG logo and then went back in the loop.
I have not installed any harfmul apps, I don't want to do a factory wipe yet because of precious data on the device.
Is there anything more I can try?
Download a stock ROM for your device from sammobile.com and install it using Odin. Since Odin doesn't wipe data when it installs, your data should be safe. With luck, the reinstall will correct your bootloop.

Cannot flash anything on G900H.

A few weeks ago I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S5 (G900H) and flashed a custom ROM on it. But after a few weeks I reflashed the original 5.0 ROM. I then installed cwm and rerooted my phone but something didn't go well because it failed to open cwm 2 out of 3 times, some apps failed to recognize it as a rooted phone (because of improper root maybe) and even some Samsung features were having a trouble in running and my phone was lagging and hung, a lot. So I backed up all my data and decided to do a factory reset.
I went into recovery and pressed on wipe all data/cache but it hung up while formatting. After half an hour or so I pulled out the battery only to see that my phone was stuck on the Samsung logo on boot.
I can't reformat it again as it keeps on saying error mounting data. So I decided to flash it with pit and the android 4.4.4 but since I had my reactivation lock on and usb debugging off, I couldn't flash it with anything.
Please help me in getting out of this situation.

[Help] SM-G900V stuck on boot logo

Rooted S5 running Lollipop. Followed the instructions here: goo. gl/QkooVR to upgrade to Marshmallow and keep root.
I flashed the stock ROM with FlashFire and set the reboot mode to download. Everything was fine except that it never booted into download mode, it just froze at the Samsung logo, so I waited 30 min, no result, took the battery out, put it back in, went to download mode manually.
Then I installed the PF4 tar.md5 file via Odin. Again, everything went fine except it never booted up properly and was again stuck at Samsung logo. So, I waited 30 more minutes, no result, took the battery out, put it back in, manually booted into stock recovery. Checked the android version and it said it was 6.0.1.
Tried installing the md5 file several more times, same result. Tried rebooting without installing it again first, same result. What do I do? Should I wipe data partitions and dalvik cache? If I do, then what happens?
