GT-i9500 boot loop with a difference topic

So I have a GT-i9500, its a year old and it started with a little problem.

A few months ago it got stuck in a boot loop, the one where it gets stuck on the Galaxy S4 logo. I pushed the power button a few times and it booted properly.

Well its now stuck in that boot loop again and no matter the amount of times I play with the power button I can't get it out of the boot loop.

I have tried everything.

Here are some of the issues:

If I put the battery in the phone boots automatically.
If I try the POWER + VOL DOWN + HOME combo I get into the download mode but then it restarts and goes back into the boot loop
I can't put it into recovery mode, it just fails to respond to the POWER + VOL UP + Home combination.

I have tried different batteries, I've left the phone without a battery for days to see if it would fix the issue. Nothing works.

Any suggestions or insights?

[Q] Difference in N910F models topic

Hi,
Can anyone tell me if there's a significant difference between the SM-N910FZKEDBT and the SM-N910FZWEDBT? I know they are both Snapdragon but I dont know if they have a difference in bands. They are both N910F but there is a 1 letter difference.

There is also another one, SM-N910FZKEXEH

I would like to know because I'm in the process of buying one :D

Thanks in advance!!

between S and Acro S is just the house/cover and the charging port

I see no difference in Gaming (from the Note 2 to Note 4) topic

Was testing Asphalt 8 today, and noticed that gameplay was more or less the same as it was in the Note 2. Seems like we're reaching plateau in what can be done in mobile technology.
