What happens when you plug in the charger? Also, try holding the power button for 30 seconds. If you connect to PC, is it recognized?

Since gaining the battery screen, have you now tried to reenter recovery mode? Try using the recovery mode button combo again and see if recovery will boot.

I am not sure of the exact combination for your device, as it varies for every device. Either Google search how to boot your model into recovery, or just try different combinations. Power+volume down or up, or possibly all 3.

I held volume up and power button, selected wipe data/factory reset then it said delete all user data so selected yes, it then took me to wiping data, formatting data then data wipe completed. then selected reboot system now. then went to blank screen so held power button and it took me to formatting screen again.

Try to be patient and let the format complete. It can take a while, depending on your internal storage capacity.

Do you have a "wipe cache partition" option in recovery? If so, try that as well. I must admit, this has me a bit perplexed. Since the only thing you've done, is a factory reset, there's really no reason for this error.

I am stumped. If it is an option, search and see if it is possible to flash the factory firmware to your device. Otherwise, sadly, I am out of suggestions.

Again, sadly, I am out of suggestions. Perhaps return for a warranty repair. Contact the manufacturer and explain that all you did was a factory reset and the device has become unresponsive.

Hey guys. So I'm having trouble with my less-than-a-month-old SGP 4.2. I was using it to text people, when suddenly it freezes. None of the buttons were working so I held the power button for about 10 seconds till it shut off. I turned it back on, and now it brings me to an "Android System Recovery <3e>" menu. I turned it off, tried again, and still, it brought me to this menu. I tried all the options it listed; Rebooting System, wipe data/factory reset, and wiping the cache partition. None worked, and now I'm stuck. I don't know if it's just the firmware got corrupted somehow, or a virus got in? Anyways, if anyone could help me I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks in Advance.

I would, but I don't know how. Besides, for some reason my SGP doesn't show up after I plug it into my computer. Would I need to purchase a micro SD card and try and install it from there? Really, I was happy with GingerBread. Do you have that somewhere?

Google search or search the forums for the stock 4.2 gingerbread rom, then install samsung's mobile device drivers which you can also find by a google search or xda search. After that, start up your 4.2 in download mode by holding the power button and volume down button. Install the Samsung drivers, open up Odin, take the rom that you downloaded and put it in the PDA section, then hit flash.
My phone was perfectly fine this morning had no problems until I got out of class and was listening to music while it was plugged up to the car where it rebooted which happens but now I can't get it to stay on 5 seconds without doing a reboot. It also Can not find service and the NFC is freaking out what do I do? I also get system is not responding. I am on the latest version and it has not been rooted.

Option 1
open up the microSD slot.
locate the little red button.
Hold it for 3 seconds (this will hard power it off)
Then hold power for 3 seconds to boot up.
success?
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Option 2
Do a factory reset (you'll have to be quick, but after 5.6 times you'll get there)
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Option 3
Plug device into PC, and run PC Companion and do a restore.
That will fix it.

Yes. Both options 2 and 3 will delete all user data. You can make a backup of user data using PC companion. And then restore this at a later date.
But it sounds like the reason for your reboots is a conflict. restoring user data will probably give you the same error.

Hold power button until power off dialog comes on
Press and hold Power Off until another dialog asks if you want to boot to safe mode

That process doesn't work on xzu, at least not by holding the power button, just redisplays the normal power off menu.

So you have plugged it into PC Companion and done a restore?
Then on your device, (Ultra)
go into settings,
then find backup and restore, and then do a factory reset.
That will delete all user data off.
If it still does it then there must be a hardware issue with the Ultra.
You could try flashing an FTF file, but that will only reinstall the OS like you did with the PC companion.
Take it back to the shop and tell them.

I am on complete stock, no root. I tried the safe mode boot suggestion and it worked for me. Press the power on/off button on the side of the phone, until the Power off/Airplane mode options appear in the centre of the screen. Press and hold the first on-screen option (Power off), then the safe mode menu appears. I had no idea the menu was there until I tested it. I didn't boot to safe mode, as my phone is working fine, so it was unnecessary for me to do that. The option is definitely there though.

Hi guys, i have a canadian version G850W (should be the same as the G850A), and I was trying to root it following this instruction for G850F :skyneel.com/2014/09/root-samsung-galaxy-alpha-sm-g850f-by-simple-tutorial.html
It did not work and bricked my phone, I then tried to recovery it with the original firmware i got from sammobile,com, but after rebooting the phone was stuck on the logo screen, i have tried two different firmwares and still the same thing. Can anyone please help me???!!!!
Thanks a million!!!
try to get into recovery mod and wipe /factory reset then the other option wipe data then reboot , see if this help you
Firstly, DO NOT flash anything to your phone that is for a different model and just assume it will work for yours, as you've discovered it usually ends in disaster. Secondly, DO NOT flash anything to your phone that is for a different model and just assume it will work for yours, as you've discovered it usually ends in disaster. Thirdly, remember firstly and secondly.
Now then, its no good trying two different firmwares, get the exact firmware for your country and carrier, flash it using the latest odin with your phone in download mode(volume down, home button and power button then volume up to confirm), then when its done and starting to reboot, pull the battery. Then replace the battery and, as @omarsalah007 has said, enter recovery,(hold volume up, home button and power button all together) once in recovery use the volume key to move down to "wipe data/factory reset", then press power button to select, also try "wipe cache partition". If it doesn't work I'm out of ideas unfortunately, I wish you luck.

get surf with this amazing phone
Hi there,
Just at once my Oneplus X got into a Bootloop.* The phone was playing music when it happened.* He keeps restarting after the very first screen.
He was running on the latest original software. No root and the phone is not unlocked.* He is complete original.
Does anyone have an idea what I can do to get my data back or get the phone running again?* I know I can try a factory reset by pressing the power button and hold volume down but I don't want to loose my data and maybe there are some other options I can try??
Thank you for anny idea or suggestion..
you had TWRP installed ? if yes then open that and connect the device to PC, MTP should show internal and external (if any) storage. copy your stuff and flash something else.
