So I have had my phone for about 4 years. Over the years I have done allot to it. It has been rooted and working fine up until two nights ago when it started randomly rebooting itself. Then it stopped all of a sudden and returned to normal. The next night I was getting ready for work and I turned on my phone as I was leaving the house and it made it to the Samsung logo then after 15 seconds or so tried entering recovery mode. It then failed the bootloader authentication and said I had an unauthorized third party program I stalled that wasn't supported. After many attempts at following the forum suggestions of trying to recover through Odin it finally gave me something. It went to a window that said the partition was currupted and wanted to restore to factory settings. I hit this button and it just hangs there and doesn't even attempt to restore it to factory. The button seems unresponsive.
My main concern is that I lost all my contacts because I already had to go buy a new phone. My question... is there any hope to restore the bootloader to try to get it to boot up normally? I don't care if it is restored to factory settings. I hear there are still ways to recover contacts and deleted data after a factory reset. But my main concern is recovering my contacts which I can't do until my phone is working. Any input?
