Local place (Batteries + Bulbs) can't do anything unless the device is unlocked, or needs components Samsung would factory reset the device before working on it I tried manually booting to safe mode (Power + Volume down), didn't boot I tried unplugging everything but the battery from the...

It gave me an option to delete app config data and attempt to start in safe mode, I'm going to try that and if not look for an android data recovery place near me

Same error unfortunately

Yep, it passed. I'm going to try reflashing it one more time and see if anything changes

It worked, kind of. Odin did its job, and reported success, but it errored out again. I managed to take a photo with a friend's phone of the recovery log and throw it into a image to text app, and got this: RECOVERY_DBG: Exception count = 800 RECOVERY_DBG: *** FATAL EXCEPTION IN SYSTEM PROCESS...

I can't boot the phone, that's the main issue

Would this be board related or specific component related? I've done component-level repair before, but have only attempted board repair once when I was much less experienced. Asking because I might be able to do it on my own, and if so, save money. Regardless, would you recommend a data...

Unfortunately with the S9 I've never been able to access its files from pc. Usually it would show up and just not be accessible, but so far I haven't even been able to get the computer to recognize it. The closest thing I've gotten is Smart Switch giving me a "Failed to connect to device error"...

Samsung S9+ (SM-G965U), Mint Mobile (Verizon towers) I was attempting to call someone, but I ran into the not uncommon issue of I can hear them but they can't hear me, so I restarted my phone, and it has been bootlooping since. It will go to the carrier screen, freeze for a few minutes, then go...
