Thank you for your answer.... that's impossible, because I make that and is the same, only reboot and reboot, and reboot

I had to do a flash stock rom and stock recovery, but I have the same issue
I have an infinite reboot!!!

Do you Know what to do, please?

Pull your battery. You can't even get into recovery? Once you pull the battery, put it back in, and hold volume up, power, and the home button, ALL AT THE SAME TIME. Once you see "recovery booting" in the top left, let go. That should let you into recovery mode manually.

Yes, I can get into recovery, and I have to do data factory reset, but I have the same issue, only reboot....

Well when you get into recovery, and do the fill wipe, are you flashing a ROM afterwards? When you do the full wipe that deletes the OS. So you have to install a new one. That would explain your bootloop

Thank you.
I install stock firmware via odin, but I have infinite boot loop, then how can I run auto-root again?

You need to fix boot loops first

sorry my ignorance and desperation!!!

I need to do this, first?

1. Install Stock firmware via Odin, then re-run auto-root (to regain root of course)

2. Install TWRP 2.6.3.2 via odin, reboot to recovery.

3. Do an "adb shell" when phone is in recovery mode to run commands via TWRP.

From the ADB shell: Wiped the EFS partition with the following command:

mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p12
mkdir /efs
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /efs

(the last two commands probably did nothing, but thats what I did anyway)

Do a factory reset, reboot system

Afterwards, no more boot looping, the phone successfully registered on the mobile network, and my IMEI is there and correct. Seems like the EFS partition can rebuild itself now I guess...

Gotta love the XDA community !!!

If it boot looping then the fix should do it.

Take battery out. Wait 1 min. Put it back in. Hold power menu and volume up and u should be in recovery. Then select everything with a wipe word in it and start all over. Do internal memory as well

You have 2 ways of doing this. The way I said above or get the zip file from boot loop fix on and flash it. Only 2 ways I know
