lately i've been having freezing and crashing resulting in bootloops. I've been getting them since the september update.I thought i was a rogue app that was causing it(either shazam or dropbox,since they've been crashing) but the i shifted to thinking it was firmware.When i got a bootloop it normally would get stuck on the samsung logo.So i downloaded odin,got my pda(from recovery) and downloaded the firmware from sammobile. This would fix the problem for a while then it would comeback.So i thought maybe i was doing something wrong,next time it crashed i got the IT guy look at it and he reflashed it ,then it worked for maybe 3 days and it crashed yesterday.Normally i would use odin or smart switch but this time it only boots into download mode.I turn my phone on and it goes straight to "downloading do not turn of target" i've rebooted using the buttons but no matter what i can't get into recovery, only download mode.I usually have to let it drain in download mode and charge it when its off(it freezes on charging as well,and the battery charging graphic stays on even when unplugged).

I've tried reflashing stock with odin(several versions) and with smart switch emergency recovery while in download mode neither work.Odin fails or sometimes it just hangs on setup connection. I've even tried flashing twrp which cause odin to fail after "pit mapping".Idk what else to do., and could this be hardware related?
