Help Recovery bootloop..

S

Spectre246

Lurker
My phone is stuck booting into recovery (twrp). When I turn the phone on, the Samsung logo comes up, then starts loading into twrp for a couple seconds, then shuts off and tries again. I let it go for a little while last night, and ended up letting it run out of battery in hopes that it would be able to load into it eventually. So.. What now?

**SOLVED: The problem was solved through flashing the firmware again through Odin. Credit goes to Ironass for figuring it out.

This thread solved my problem, starting at 1.11
To be clear, if recovery isn't working, download might still work, and you'll always have a solution through that.

You will need to wipe the cache partition in TWRP in recovery mode.

Providing you have the correct TWRP .tar file for your model of phone, you could try flashing it again, using Odin. Failing that,
then you will need to download the stock Samsung firmware for your model of phone and CSC code and flash it to your phone via Odin by following the instructions and video contained in the links of #1.11 of 40 Galaxy S5 models - Dummies Guide. This will unroot you and you will need to re-root.
