Hello again,
I was having problems with my old battery and i tried to hard reset my phone when the power was almost half but the batter suddenly hanged my fone in the middle of formatting and now i brought a new battery and its not entering BOOTLOADER MODE when i press the Bulb+Power+Reset button
When i place the phone on charging the indicator on the Phone glows Red and it wont turn on the phone or wont go to bootloader mode...if only you guys can explain me how to enter bootloader mode then i can do the rest.
Thanks.
P.S : Despite all the problems i face using a WM i still love it the most.
Common guys...this forum is my only hope....as i dont have any HTC service centre near my place.
Hoping for some usefull adivces.

How i screwed up my HTC Universal ?
I tried to Hard Reset it when the battery was running on low power and while the process of hard resetting was going on it suddenly shut down due to low power and now it wont even enter bootloader mode....Any help guys ? i purchased it from dubai and i dont even have any HTC repair centre in my city...not that i know off.

Yes i am very sure, As i have previously installed many ROMS on it but this time its not even going into bootloader mode.
I doubt that the bootloader mode itself is currupted or something is there a way to install a fresh bootloader mode ?
Kindly help me out its been a month i havnt used my phone now.,using a Motorola W220 ,from jasjar to w220 is not a very good feeling guys. please sort my problem i dont have anyone to guide me here.
Funny thing is i found a HTC repair center and the guys over their said they only repair HTC products not Imate and imate service centre in whole aisa = 5 or 6 :| checked it on club imate site.

Thanks for your help. I've tried the remedies outlined in the PDF document, including flashing the memory via the SD card. This does not solve the problem.
Any suggestions?

Yes, that's the funny part; can enter bootloader mode. I've followed the instructions to burn a new ROM to the SD card. After I burn the new ROM to the SD card, I can then burn the new ROM, but as soon as I choose to hard reboot my device, I receive a message reading; CLEARING, then the display fades and nothing further happens.
I will post this answer in the other threads with this problem, but I installed Tomal's WM6.1 v8.2 and the phone worked fine afterward. I think the problem is that some phones don't accept all ROMS.
If only i could enter bootloader mode i would have tried whichever rom you would have suggested but my problem is different i cant even enter Bootloader mode.
And i think only a service center can help me nothing else.
Hi!
My device as similar behavior.
After a failed upgrade at 99%.
It don't Start , can't go to Boot Loader mode.

Hello there...Welcome to the club bro...
Funny thing is i gave my phone to a Local service center and he was able to get it in Bootloader mode but couldnt install a proper ROM as he didnt had one...so i got my problem fixed and i sold my jasjar two days ago for 5000/- Indian Rupees...Thats around $105 .
I have promised myself that i will NEVER buy an Imate as they dont have proper service centers here in my place.I am planning to get Sony X1 now
My suggestion to you...get it repaired and sell it before it gets messed up again.,its a very delicate and very pain in the @$$ phone.Im so happy now ^.^
Mods :Can lock this thread now...i no longer own a jasjar.
How They Get in Bootloader?
Using JTAG ?
Or there is another trick ?
Because Normal combination of key don't work
...
Can you try to find out ?
Thanks

Any updates?
Hey everyone!
I have never posted anything on a forum before, so please tell me if I do anything wrong. I have searched everywhere to find a solution for my problem, but I found nothing.
Today I accidentally got into the Samsung Recovery Utils of my galaxy 3. I have done nothing to the phone, all original, nothing flashed or rooted. But now I can't get out of this mode, if I restart the phone it automatically goes back into it.
Does anyone know how to get out of there?
Thank you a lot for helping me!
And I hope that this is the right forum to ask this question, as I said, I have never posted in a forum before.
Usually you should be able to reboot from recovery mode. Scroll to reboot Phone with the Volume Keys and klick with the Home Key... Your phone should restart.
Otherwise remove the battery, wait a few moments, plug the battery back in and try it again.
Good Luck
Thank you, I tried both several times, but I always end up in the recovery mode... I have no idea how i can get out of there! Do you maybe know something else I could do?
do the battery thing mentioned above. turn on your phone with vol up+ vol down+home +power (hold them for a while) and then try rebooting from the menu
here's the solution

Hey.. If ur on a Android 2.1 firmware and stuck on recovery every time...
just use the volume keys and chose the option "reboot" ... by the way.. its on default there.
after that just press the central key or called the "home key" two times consecutively..
ur good to go
I tried this several times, but I always end up in the Recovery Menu. When I pull out the battery, restart the phone and hold all those buttons including the power button my phone shows the Samsung Galaxy Logo and then reboots again, and then shows the Logo and reboots again. Only without holding the power button, and only the other ones I get into the Recovery Menu again. I really hope there is a way to get out of this mode! Thank you for all your help so far!
Hey I just saw the post in front of my other one
So yes I'm on Android 2.1 if that helps. And I tried this method several times, but when my phone restarts I always end up in the recovery mode by pressing nothing.
But thank you
try wipeing data and cache
I tried that out, but still rebooted into recovery mode all the time.
Because I couldn't find anything that solved my problem I just decided to flash my phone to a newer original firmware via odin. I just finished flashing and everything works fine as it did before, till now tho. I used the tutorial that is on this forum for flashing my I5800 and it worked perfectly fine, thank you for everyone's help anyway!
Now I hope that they will soon bring back froyo on kies, because it was deleted from the servers again today in Germany so I can't update. Hope that will happen soon!
I would recommend to forget about KIES... I am sorry but this software is a piece of crap!
Keep using the Odin Flasher. If you have some spare time install gsams nice lagfix and be happy about a very fast Froyo I5800
Edit:
Another funny thing about Kies: You can download the current version by using a US Proxy Server, which is also free of these annoying error messages at startup. But still there are much better alternatives, and the newest version (Kies 5 I think) is also incompatible to the I5800 Phone :-/
Yes, I really hate kies, that software is nothing good!
I think I will follow your advise to continue using odin flasher. Which froyo version is the best to install? I still have 2.1 on my phone. and then how do you install that lagfix? Sorry for all those questions, but I'm new to all this.
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA App
you are new to this? ok, then go to the development section and see the READ FIRST thread
I have already read through those threads, I just meant that I just started some days ago, I'm not a pro, I'm only someone who just started haha
So today I flashed to xxjpf froyo and I'm having no problems so far. everything is fine so my problem is solved and in addition I have froyo now

You can try to factory reset it... Follow the following
Press Vol Up + Vol Down Key (Press in middle so that both are pressed)
Press Home Key
Now Press Power
GT I5801 logo will appear
Leave the keys and your phone will boot into recovery
Try wiping cache first and if not working factory reset it
If after this it doesnt work, Install Kies...It will install drivers
Follow the above steps except press vol down key instead of both
Phone will go into download mode.... Plug in USB and flash it
hello guys ... I then tried the key combination .. but nothing to do., or any sign of life .... other ideas ... damn it bothers me back for assistance!
Just flash your phone with new rom. For this use Odin and OPS file and rom .
Boot into download mode of gt-5800 by using vol - , power and home button all at a time. Then you can flash new firmware from Odin , use one package or other option specific to rom and your phone will start working again. Hope this helps.
Post any problem while flashing.

Did the phone hung during upgrade process or Kies hung during download process?
If phone hung during upgrade process and now you cannot boot that means your phone is hard bricked. This is because when you upgrade the phone through kies, it updates the boot loader and when phone hung during the process means bootloader is corrupted. In this scenario, you need to take the phone to service center and get hardware replaced
then I guess I'll have to bring your cell phone service ... damn ..
Grazzi guys for the help anyway .. I just know you know the developments of the case ..
hello
have you ever tried anything like flashing before? if not take it to samsung service centre and say it is not switching on.
I'm running CM7, this problem just started a few weeks ago. When I turn off the screen and it should be going to sleep (or whatever it does), it turns off after a while. Then when I go to turn it on again, it doesn't start right away, I have to press the power button a bunch of times at different intervals to get it to start up. Also, my battery life seems to be suffering.
This is driving me nuts, and every time I have trouble turning it on, I think that it's going to be the day that it never turns on again.
Any ideas?
running the original cm7 kernel or an overclocked one ?
Pretty sure just the original. I'm kind of a newb soo
not easy to say ...
allready tried a hard reset ? -> hold pwr button for ~20sec till it turns off
or just reflash cm7
same problem with a other rom (ie prerooted stock) ?

I had this problem on cyanogenmod 9.. the only way to turn it back on was hard reset. I an back to rooted stock Atm and have had no trouble.
I did a hard reset, seems to be okay now, thanks!
glad to help ...
please mark the subject of the topic (edit first post) with [Solved]
It happened again.
I was under the impression this was a known issue. I have the same issue from time to time as well but its nothing a hard reboot doesn't remedy.
Hi all,
I've received my S7 Edge today(Exynos), yay.
All was working flawlessly until few moments ago, I was running 3Dmark, and before I even start to bench, while i was downloading the first scene The screen goes all black, then after 10 seconds, there's a message on top (in the same way a rooted phone would display "kernel is not seandroid enforced..."):
Bootloader Exception
[RST_START = 0x100000000 ]
[...]
Exception: do_handler_serror: SERROR(esr: 0xbf00000000)
[...]
I didn't install any rom, root or else, it's pure stock untouched. I tried to reboot phone using volume down+power, it reboots I think (screen goes all black) but quickly the same message appears...
I'm surely going to call phone operator to tell them that phone is KO, but if one of you guys has any idea that would avoid me to send back phone to warranty, it would be nice
Thanks !
@mods : Sorry for posting in wrong section
Try this...

I'd suggest a factory reset if the above fails.
Hold Power + Volume Up + Menu
Then use the volume keys to scroll to factory reset and select using menu or power buttons.
Hi guys,
Thanks very much for you answers,
Unfortunately any key combination is not working can't get into recovery nor download mode ...
I don't want to try Odin, scared about potential warranty issues ... but it kills me to have to send the phone back to sammy and wait ..

The phone must be off for the Volume Up + Power + Home button combination to work. Keep those pressed for like 10 seconds, even after the phone powers on. I just tried it on my S7 Edge (which drops every call) and could restore to factory settings (but didn't solve the issue).

Thanks for your advices !
Unfortunately, even with this combination and a lot of patience I cannot manage to "bypass" this Bootloader error ...
I'm mad because it will take one month to get a new phone from my operator(just called them ...)
So maybe i'm going to try Odin ... but if I cannot put my phone into download mode, i'm f*ckued, right ?

Nope, the phone doesn't boot anymore... it only displays the bootloader error message...
And no possibility to access reboot or recovery...
Maybe I can try to check with ADB, but my problem is that i would need to active USB debugging in settings ... but i can't do that

Yep, I wanted to avoid it, but I don't see other reasonnable option. The phone didn't last more than 24h ... ok, it happens, I know ...
My previous (Still actual (sic)) Phone was a Note 3 and I installed so much roms, soft bricked the device so many times, but I could always restore it ... But not the S7 EDGE ... And I didn't spot any other user with same bootloader issue...
I've just sent back the phone for replacement, Thanks for all who replied to me in this thread
Oh and by the way : don't download 3DMark from play store , it will Hard brick your phone !!! (haha just kidding , i know it's not what caused my phone to die, I'm sure of it , however I won't try to install it anymore i think^^ )
Cheers XDA crew !!

Sorry to hear that bro
Try things to troubleshoot if you wanna, but my advice : don't lose one day of trying to fix it, send it back directly to warranty...
I tried lot of things, key combination to reboot phone in recovery or download, I tried Kies, Odin, ADB....
I believe it's a real samsung bug that will happen to many people, So send it now before sammy is drowned under hard bricked S7 phones and start to have issues to provide replacement devices....
the S7 edge is getting a "urgent" update on approx 3mb..maybe this is a fix of some sort.

That is to correct the Screen Edge sensitivity
For anyone else who runs into this issue, I managed to fix my phone.
Holding the power and VOL down buttons for about 5-10 seconds will reboot the phone; if you hold home at the same time you can get into download mode (might take a couple tries).
From there, you can flash a new bootloader (BL option in odin) and then get back into recovery to do whatever you need to do.
Went from soft-brick to full restore in about ten minutes--not even a factory reset necessary.
Hope this helps!
