Good morning,
so I was stupid enough to try to reset my phone by using the "reset phone"-function in the settings menues. This must have damaged my recovery (TWRP), which before was working perfectly fine. To make things worse, this was my girlfriend's phone - so I am "that stupid tech nerd" who destroyed her phone now.
The phone is in a bootloop into recovery. Samsung logo appers after pressing the power-button, then the TWRP-logo appears. The recovery however does not start up correctly, but flashes once every 5 seconds. From this I assume, that the recovery can't fetch its needed data on startup and is restarting over and over again.
The phone can still boot into download-mode. However I am not sure, whether I enabled ADB. Stupid question alert: Do I need ADB to be enabled in order to use ODIN? Because to be frank, flashing with ODIN with this phone never really seemed to work.
I tried re-flashing TWRP via ODIN without any success. I thought about flashing other recoveries (CWM), but wanted to ask for your kind help, before making things even worse.
Please help me on this. Any hints are very much appreciated!
