Many users are facing boot stuck and boot looping issues,So I have created a post which will guide you to fix a phone with boot stuck screen.

Full procedure to fix a boot stuck or boot looped phone-

There are three methods to fix this issue-

1)Wipe cache from recovery mode.

2)Hard reset from Recovery mode.

3)Reinstalling firmware via Odin tool.(PC required)

 

1)Wipe Cache Partition-

You need to boot your phone to Recovery mode first.Power off phone>Press Volume UP+Power button at same time and when Phone model name logo appears then release all buttons.>Recovery Mode>Use Volume up and down keys to navigate and then Select Wipe Cache Partition>Confirm>Check it by rebooting if not rebooting then refer to step 2.

 

2)Hard reset-Power off phone>Press Volume UP+Power button at same time and when Phone model name logo appears then release all buttons.>Recovery Mode>Wipe Data/Factory Reset>Confirm>Check it by rebooting phone if still not working then refer to step 3.

 

3)Firmware Flashing through Odin tool.

Things required- Computer>  Samsung USB drivers installed in it, Odin tool in PC and Official Stock Firmware.

1)Firstly download your phone's official stock firmware from the given site-

https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/recent/ 

Visit this site and enter your model number in "My Model Number" Tab and 'INS' in "My Country Code". (Create a free account in sammobile.com and login, You can also pay for a premium membership if you want to increase download speeds)

2)Select the Latest firmware and download it.

3)Download Odin tool from same link from where you're  downloading firmware>Install Odin.

4)Extract the firmware files with an archive tool.>You should get 5 files: AP , BL , CP , CSC_ , HOME_CSC_

5)Add each file to its respective field in Odin.(Don't mess with any other settings in Odin tool)

6)Boot to download mode in phone by - Recovery Mode>Reboot to bootloader.

7)Install Samsung USB drivers from this site-https://developer.samsung.com/mobile/android-usb-driver.html >Connect phone to PC.>Odin should detect your phone and a blue box will appear with COM port number in it.

8)Click Start button and wait for Odin to say 'PASS' in a GREEN box.>Your phone will take some time to fully boot after this procedure.

somebody can't even restart their device from bootloader option..by pressing volume down +power key together (which is procedure)...so how they will return to factory mood without switching off device?

If someone is stuck in download mode then they just need to connect it to PC and then re-flash the firmware.

I think best procedure in that case is to let device battery totally empty
