While playing a simple game my phone suddenly restarted, till it reached Samsung logo, and kept restarting over and over.
I tried to shut down the phone by long pressing power button, but it kept restarting.
Finally I figured out to take the SIM card off, and it could load!
After it loads, everytime I insert the SIM againg it suddenly restarts, and repeats the bootloop again.

I also tried the following with the SIM card removed:
- I scanned the phone for viruses, it was clean;
- Safe Mode: bootloops with SIM card initially inserted, and same issue happens once SIM card inserted after loading Safe Mode.
I tried the following solutions:
- Recovery Mode: I did only Wipe Cache, it did not solve;
- Recovery Mode: I did factory reset, it did not solve;
- Download Mode: I flashed stock ROM, did not solve (I did twice, once with and once without SIM card inserted);
- Download Mode: Unlocked bootloader and flashed, did not solve!
