FonePaw - Solution - Bricked - Unbrick Samsung Phone/Tablet

Just root your Samsung phone or tablet and then find that it won't turn on properly? It could be that the Samsung device:

  • Is unable to turn on;

  • Gets stuck at boot loop;

  • Freezes at the Samsung logo;

  • Boots straight into recovery mode/bootloader ...

If this sounds like the situation that you are dealing with, your Samsung device is bricked, or more specifically, is soft bricked. Here are tips to unbrick your Samsung phone or tablet.

Method 1. Unbrick Samsung Device That Keeps Rebooting

If your Samsung S7/6/5/4, Note 5/4/3 or Samsung Tab keeps rebooting when you are flashing a new ROM, it is probably because that you forgot to wipe all data of the previous ROM. Now you need to wipe all data in recovery mode to unbrick the device.

  1. Press and hold Volume Up button + Power button + Home button to boot the bricked Samsung device in recovery mode;

  2. Press Volume Down button to highlight Advanced. Press Power button to confirm your choice;

  3. Choose 'wipe dalvik cache' and return to main menu;

  4. Select 'wipe cache partition';

  5. Choose 'wipe data/factory reset';

  6. Finally, reboot your Samsung phone.

If the problem continues, try the next method.

Method 2. Unbrick Samsung by Using Odin to Flash Recovery File

Whether your Samsung phone or tablet doesn't turn on or gets stuck at recovery mode, the method can bring it back to normal. It has been proved effective by many users.

  1. Download Odin on your PC and Download suitable recovery.tar file.

  2. Run Odin as an administrator.

  3. Switch off your Samsung device and boot the device into download mode.

  4. Connect your device to PC and Odin will soon detect the connected device.

GUIDE: SPRINT GALAXY S5 OFFICIAL KITKAT 4.4 FIRMWARE

Before you begin with guide instructions below, make sure your android device is adequately charged — at least 50% battery of the device.

STEP 0: CHECK DEVICE MODEL NO.

To make sure your device is eligible with this, you must first confirm its model no. in ‘About device’ option under Settings. Another way to confirm model no. is by looking for it on the packaging box of your device. It must be SM-G900P!

Do not use the procedures discussed here on any other Galaxy S5 (including the Galaxy S5 variants at T-Mobile, US-Cellular, AT&T, Verizon and other International variants) or any other device of Samsung or any other company. You have been warned!

STEP 1: BACKUP YOUR DEVICE

Back up important data and stuff before you start playing around here as there are chances you might lose your apps and app-data (app settings, game progress, etc.), and in rare case, files on the internal memory, too.

STEP 3: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

DOWNLOADS

Download the Odin zip file and firmware file given below. Transfer both Odin and firmware file to a separate folder on your computer just to keep things tidy.

ODIN ONE CLICK FILE

DOWNLOAD LINK File name: SM-G900P_ND2_Full_Restore_UNROOTED (Compressed Archive).exe (1.32 GB)

STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE

Important Note: Backup important files stored on internal SD card of your device, so that in case a situation arises requiring you to do a factory reset after flashing stock firmware, which might delete internal sd card too, your files will remain safe on PC.

  1. Extract/Unzip the Firmware zip file, SM-G900P_ND2_Full_Restore_UNROOTED (Compressed Archive).exe on your computer. (This is a self extracting executable package, so a simple double-click will extract the contents to specified location)
  2. Disconnect the Galaxy S5 from PC if it is connected.
  3. Navigate to the location where the SM-G900P_ND2_Full_Restore_UNROOTED.exe was saved upon extract from the 7Zip archive. Double-click on SM-G900P_ND2_Full_Restore_UNROOTED.exe. (On Vista or newer, you may need to right-click on the file and select Run as Administrator.)
  4. Boot your Sprint Galaxy S5 into Download Mode: (See the general Samsung devices download mode picture below)
    • Power off your phone first and wait for 6-7 seconds after display is off.
    • Press and hold these 3 buttons together until you see Warning! screen: Volume Down + Power + Home.
    • Press Volume Up now to continue to Download Mode.
  5. Connect your GalaxyS5 to PC. Odin should show a yellow COM port in the second column. If you do not see a yellow COM port, here are some troubleshooting tips:
    • Make sure you have installed driver for Galaxy S5 as said above in ‘Before you begin..’ section.
    • If you have already installed driver, then uninstall them and re-install back.
    • Run Odin One-Click as Administrator.
    • Connect using a different USB port on your PC.
    • Try a different USB cable. The original cable that came with your phone should work best, if not, try any other cable that’s new and of good quality.
    • Reboot phone and PC and then try again.
  6. Press start button once the Yellow com port appears in the second column of odin one-click installer.
  7. Once the flashing process is completed, the status should change to green PASS! At this point your phone should automatically reboot.

If you see FAIL message instead of the PASS in Odin’s top left box, that’s a problem. Try this now: disconnect your Sprint Galaxy S5 from PC, close Odin, remove phone’s battery and put it back inside in 3-4 seconds, open Odin and then repeat from Step 2 of this guide again.

Also, If device is Stuck at setup connection or on any other process, then too, try this: disconnect your Sprint Galaxy S5 from PC, close Odin, remove phone’s battery and put it back inside in 3-4 seconds, open Odin and then repeat from Step 2 of this guide again.
