I got stuck in the S4 boot screen for hours

[AC Question]

My s4 didn't get pass the samsung boot screen at GT-I9505 for hours. I have already tried pulling the battery out, push the vol +, home and power to reboot but it just didn't work. What else can I do or can someone tell me what's going on?

Hi! Did you flashed a ROM to your s4? Or update? If you flashed a ROM or update your s4... pull your battery and put it back in, then press volume up + home button + power button. Using the volume button, navigate to "wipe cache partition". This will wipe your phone's cache that might cause your phone unable to boot up. This wont wipe your data/files. If you have tried this method, i recommend you to do a full factory reset/wipe.
