I didn’t note the red errors messages to be honest, as there were many. But yes, I did everything in the listed steps: I started the TWRP step after a complete factory reset, but if a factory reset still includes a Google Account (which I assumed it didn’t), then no, I missed that step.
Honestely I’m not completely sure about which Android version was on the phone originally, but it was the most recent version for stock SGS7 (Android 8 perhaps)?
Amazing, I managed to get the stock ROM on it and it’s now back and running.
Any suggestions as to how to work around not triggering the issue with the TWRP boot loop again?
And btw., there are no accounts on the stock ROM (not Google or anything else).
So I gave it another shot and here’s the error messages I’m getting when wiping: Dalvik / ART Cache, Data, Internal Storage, cache and system.
I tried to take the next step again to change the file system to exFAT and it seems like I’m getting the same result. It says “done” in the log but the headline is “formatting” and the bar at the bottom is still alive indicating activity. But seeing others doing this on Youtube shows that it takes 10 seconds, not minutes.
[SOLVED] Choose EXT2 instead of exFAT and that solved the problem. Now running /e/!
How did you do it? I have exactly the same problem on my S7: TWRP stuck on logo screen and I can only enter Download Mode, but flashing TWRP with Heimdall doesn’t help. I’ve tried different versions of TWRP but all get stuck on the TWRP logo.
Did you use Odin and where did you get stock image from?
Hey, btrother.
Same problem here. Could you tell me how did you booted into download mode.
If i boot it up into download mode i will flash the stock ROM.
But i am stuck at the logo and can’t even enter download mode.
hello @rfalc I have exactly the same problem.
Phone locked on the Teamwin screen after the same steps you described.
Could you please tell me where you found your stock ROM ? I cannot seem to be able to find serious websites to download it.
hello again, @rfalc
edit : I succeeded in reinstalling an operator ROM (yuck but anyway, it works).
I’ll now re-try the procedure, hoping I won’t get stuck again in the Teamwin screen…
Hello, this tread is 2 years old not expecting any replies, i have a similar case, i installed a unofficial LOS 20 Rom and forgot to flash gapps
tried booting back to twrp and it froze, but when i restarted it took me back to LOS, but suddenly idk what happand the phone is stuck on the twrp screen, download mode wont even work (it dosent boot into LOS AND download mode) can someone help?, edit: it wont even show the charging animation, just goes straight to the s7 boot screen and into twrp im guessing i wiped the download mode code or somthing, when i plug it in into windows, windows reports as “USB Device not recognized,” and in device manager, it reports as configuration descriptor request failed. usage wise i have always used android 10 one ui 2.5 custom rom and everything was fine (it was my main phone). after i got a new phone i retired the s7 and used it to install different types of roms, one of them being LOS 20 (unofiicial) and that seemed to brick twrp AND pretty much everything else. Note that download mode did not work even at the beginnging, i used an app to put it in download mode. i wish to boot this phone up to stock rom and evrything will be fine again. ever since this issue came, i then got a samsung s4 to play around with.
do you got any solutions please i am also stuck at teamwin logo and cant enter into fastboot and neither i able to reboot my device to system nor in download mode.please help me out.
Hi @Arpitkasana, just to clarify, can we assume that you have read all this tread from the top ?
The very first thing to do is to Force stop with Soft resetVolume Down + Power at the same time, for 7 seconds. What happens if you hold these buttons for as long as it takes to shutdown ? Once you have shutdown … where do you get stuck from earlier advice ?
