I did a charge port replacement on a Galaxy S5 for verizon for some wierd reason it wont go past the boot logo? I have checked and the charge port is for the correct carrier. Anyone know what is causing this even being a Samsung Repair Tech professionally this has me stumped.
Try going to recovery mode Power off your device completely. – if the phone doesn’t boot recovery after you complete the guide, then you have to remove its battery and re-insert it after a few seconds, then repeat the guide. Boot recovery mode by pressing and holding Volume Up, Home and Power, all at the same time. Release all buttons when the Galaxy S5 screen flickers and the main Recovery screen will appear. In the recovery mention do a wipe cache. If this still doesn’t work, do a factory reset. Please note this wipes all of your data on the phone. If you can’t get into recovery because it involves the home button, then there is something else wrong, like maybe a defective daughterboard.
Did a factory reset and a cache wipe at 54% battery. Got stuck on the second flashing samsung logo. I plugged it in the pc, which didn’t recognize it so it just charged and after 3-4 minutes it started optimizing the android apps and booted. From all these i figure out it has something to do with having it plugged in to charge, so it may help to do that.
