Galaxy S4 Boot Loop - No Recovery Mode - Odin Mode Flashing fails - HELP

[MrG]

Hi guys,

Not sure what happened to the phone. Turned it off and when it came back on.... boot loop. Occasionally makes OS but only stays for like 3 seconds.

Recovery mode for half a second flashes an Android that is lying down and it restarts.

Safe Mode also causes a reboot.

Flashing results in this:

How old is the battery? Maybe try with charger plugged in?

Battery is recently replaced.

Also, the phone is plugged into the USB at the time of flashing.

R400. My final offer.

Had the same issue on my s4 ended up being the power button.
After I disassembled it and clipped off the power button with a small sidecutter and used a alternative way to power it on it worked fine for another 6 months till I replaced it.

I also had the power button issue, which is resolved, like you by using alternative methods.

When I put the battery in, it does not auto boot and when in odin mode it does not reboot, so the power button is not getting stuck in an on state.

This is different from that.

Did you come right?
Is your s4 a 9505 or 9500?
