I have a MetroPCS Galaxy Indulge..
I woke up to see my phone rebooting over and over again..
Last night I did wipe it clean to factory settings..
I've tried taking out the battery and sim card a few times, holding the power button for a while and then putting it back in.. and tryed to turn it back on again.. but that didn't work.. tried that a few times actually..
my phone is rooted.. and umm... i don't know what else to do..:thinking:
lil help please..
 
i have no idea some bricks are to severe for the phone to work again but if its not the download mode should work. you shouldn't be able to see the Samsung logo as that only shows if the phone is booted to recovery or normal boot if your trying to do an Odin reset then pressing the power button and the key 9 on the keyboard at the same time should get you to download mode and not the Samsung logo i don't know if the keys are the same for both r910 and r915 so i don't know..

I found the above quote here http://androidforums.com/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=4632190

that's what I'm trying now.. but it's been stuck at the same screen for over an hour now..

any other ideas?

Since that didn't work.. -supernoob12- has been helping me fix it on the low.. we've been talking through emails..

basically he's guiding me on doing the procedure noted here
How to get the Samsung Galaxy Indulge (R910 and R915) Back to Stock - TheUnlockrTheUnlockr

but that hasn't worked..

a whole day without my cell phone and I feel so different.. in need of texting..

if anybody out there has any ideas.. please.. by all means.. Im not giving up on this phone just yet..

i looked at those at threads and they point towards different models of phones.. I'm not sure if I can use the files for the Samsung Epic on my Samsung Indulge

Use the indulge files. I took a peak at it and it is using a video tutorial for fixing the epic to show the process. It's the same process for all samsung phones, but different files for each device.

tried it... no go.. someone told me on facebook that something similar had happened to her and it was because the flash was messed up.. I showed her a video of my phone going through the boot loop.. too bad she has a different phone.. she couldn't tell me where to get the files to fix flash..
