I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 that has gotten into a boot loop. Basically, when you power it on it shows the SAMSUNG Galaxy S6 (powered by Android) screen for like 3 seconds and then goes black. It then pops up the same screen and goes black again. Etc. Etc.
I am able to get to recovery mode.
I have tried doing the "wipe cache partition" to no avail.
I am able to connect the device to my MAC and send adb commands to it.
So, here are my questions --
1. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get this thing working again *without* wiping out all of my data?
2. Can I use adb sideload to install an OS update without killing all of my data?
3. Can I install some other app to get my data using adb?
All I care about is the data (photos/texts) is there any hope for me?
Thank you!
