Getting stuck on the Samsung logo can be alarming. Your Galaxy S25 FE refuses to boot into the system, leaving you unable to use the phone. This problem often points to software errors, corrupted files, or issues after a failed update. The good news is, there are reliable fixes you can try before seeking repair.
Why Your Galaxy S25 FE Might Be Stuck on the Samsung Logo
- Incomplete or failed software update.
- Corrupted cache or temporary system data.
- Faulty or incompatible apps causing boot issues.
- Low storage space interfering with system processes.
- Rare cases of firmware corruption.
Force Restart Your Phone.
A force restart is the first thing to try. It can clear temporary glitches that stop your phone from booting up properly.
- Press and hold the Side key, and then press and hold the Volume Down key.
- Keep holding both keys for about 15 seconds until the Samsung logo appears again.
If the issue is minor, your phone should continue booting normally after this.
Boot Into Safe Mode.
Safe Mode disables third-party apps. If one of them is causing the boot loop, your phone may start working in this mode.
- Press and hold the Side key, and then tap Power off on the screen.
- Touch and hold Power off until you see Safe mode, and then tap it to restart in Safe mode.
If your Galaxy S25 FE boots successfully, uninstall any recently installed or suspicious apps before restarting normally.
Free Up Storage Space.
Insufficient storage can prevent the system from starting. If your phone boots into Safe Mode or Recovery Mode, clearing space might solve the issue.
- Boot into Safe Mode using the steps above, and then open My Files.
- Delete unnecessary apps, photos, or videos to free up internal storage.
This gives the operating system enough room to run smoothly.
Wipe Cache Partition.
Corrupted cache files may stop your phone from loading the system. Wiping the cache partition deletes these files without touching personal data.
- Turn off your phone completely, and then press and hold the Volume Up key.
- While holding Volume Up, press and hold the Side key until the Recovery screen appears.
Use the Volume keys to highlight Wipe cache partition, then press the Side key to select it. After it is done, reboot the system.
Perform a Factory Reset.
If nothing works, a factory reset may be necessary. This erases everything on your device, so only use it as a last resort.
- Boot into Recovery Mode by holding the Volume Up and Side key together.
- Use the Volume keys to highlight Wipe data/factory reset, and then press the Side key to confirm.
After the reset, choose Reboot system now. Your Galaxy S25 FE should start fresh.
Being stuck on the Samsung logo can be stressful, but most cases are caused by temporary glitches or corrupted system data. Following the steps above usually resolves the issue without needing professional repair.
