Hello, I have a problem with my tablet.
Yesterday I installed the ROM "Prime 1.4" with NVFLASH and I realized that the power button worked 1 out of 10.
This morning my tablet rebooted continuously without booting android, just boot animation.
To stop that, I held the power button and volume down to enter the recovery CWM but CWM not responding, I can not reboot my tablet, I tried to do a hard reset but it does not work, I do not know if it was because my power button has problems or if the tablet does not work at all.
Do you have any idea what can I do? I could bring it back to my dealer for my trade but it would remove recovery screen.
Thank you in advance for your solutions!
PS: Sorry for my bad english
Sounds like you had a "bad" flash. Try re-flash the ROM again.
I can't doing anything, i've CWM on the screen but it is blocked ... :/
You don't need CWM. You can re-flash follow this guide.
If you can't shutdown the device. Let your battery drain 100% and then charge it 50% and try again.
Yes but I can't exit from CWM, to reflash with NVFLASH I need to shutdown the device but I can't :/
But thanks for your reply.

Have you tried the 12second Power Button fix to turn the unit off?
If that doesnt work then you will have to wait until the battery runs out and turns off so you can plug the charger back in and try to unbrick it.
Mark.
Yes I tried but without results ...
It's OK, my Dealer gave me a new one.
Thanks for all

I had the same problem on LG Venice from flashing the wrong recovery. If you get the right drivers- LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN38AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.8.1 and the app from LG called LG Support Tool. The installer is called B2CAppSetup. From the screen with the "download in progress Dont unplug cable" it will wipe the phone and put it back stock with an upgrade. To do this you have to register your phone with LG. Once it is done the phone worked great, but i havent been able to root it again. Beats a phone that doesnt work. rcalzcalhoun
my galaxy s4 is always boot looping into Samsung galaxy s4 screen. only the download mode screen appears but it reboots again after 5 seconds and keeps on rebooting . any help ?
Do you run with stock or custom recovery? Have you tried to (re-)flash a custom recovery (CWM highly recommended)?

Hm, if I understand you correctly, you can boot into download mode but it just lasts a couple of seconds before it reboots on its own, right? You cannot boot into recovery as the screen simply stays black. Can you boot successfully into /system or does it bootloop as well?
Sounds like a hardbrick to me, the only thing I can think of before sending your phone in for repair is to pull out the battery for 1 hour or so, reinsert it and boot directly into download mode and see if it stays there. If it does, flash a custom recovery using Odin and check whether you can boot into it afterwards.

I'm having the same problem here
dead phone, can't boot into recovery, automatically restarts seconds after going into download mode, it doesn't even charge, battery logo comes out aaaand restart, and it keep going
any help?
Im also having the same problem as of this last night.
cannot boot into recovery.
boots to download mode first screen but when I attempt to press volume up to accept, it reboots.
as soon as i put the battery in it cycles through the samsung logo.
tried removing memory card but didnt help.
tried keeping battery out overnight, nothing.
last thing i changed was flashing --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201860. did this about 2 days ago.
not sure if that has anything to do with it?

I think it has nothing to do with it
I'm, I was actually, on stock everything, rom, kernel and recovery
30 68336826
OK so I left my phone without a battery in it for the afternoon, just got back home and gave it a try.
It booted. No idea why or what actually went wrong.
Lets hope it doesn't happen again!
OK, So the point that the phone just start booting just the moment the battery is inserted got me thinking
IS IT THE POWER SWITCH?
and indeed it's, the power switch is stuck on, although I can feel the click when I push, still, seems like something is wrong with it
so I tried to suck it out, hit the phone softly few times while the power switch is facing the ground
inserted the battery, aaaand, it didn't start booting, pressed the power softly, and horaaaaay, it's working
Had the same issue and indeed I knocked the power button several times and it worked very well. Thank you! You saved my day

I have similar problem... and identified its power button.
How i identified is as phone switched on i hold menu button and volume down button together and
it booted in download mode, for download mode you have to keep pressing power button, volume
down button and menu button but it went without pressing power button.. so i assume that its power
button.
Try it... hope will identify your problem
same Problem
Hello!
I have the same problem, and disassemble the cell and saw that the button will operate properly .
Someone has managed to get out of this problem?
thanks a lot... i was facing same problem... i hit ma phn near power switch...again n again... it worked... love u xda
whoa, I just got this problem recently, because some of bezel around my phone has cracked, then I try to glue it roughly.
at the other hand, I tried to install new kernel. I tought that kernel make my phone bricked. then I found this thread. so I open my case. and found my glue sticked to the power button, remove it and. voilaaaa~
thank you XDA. you never cease to amaze me. lol
Hey all,
I have just run into an issue, I was installing CWM and all seemed well, but then when I had tried to boot into recovery by holding down the buttons.
However, when it would say recovery booting it would flash turn off and reboot.
I figured it was just an issue with how I was trying to get into the recovery so I used ADB to Reboot into recovery, and that went fine but now I am in a boot loop of the phone trying to get into recovery but when it isnt seeing CWM for some reason it just reboots and continues the cycle.
I would appreciate if anyone has any insight as to how I can fix this or lets hope its not this but if Im screwed at this point.
Thanks in advance,
nEmo
Gahh... This is really getting to me, I've tried everything I can think of.
No one out there has any ideas?
I know Im not being very patient but its the only phone I have access to right now
It almost seems like there is either no OS on it (I hadn't wiped anything at this point) so this is the least likely,
or there was something wrong with the version of CWM that I was trying to use.
I think why I can't connect anything or do anything like that is because it keeps trying to look for the recovery
but because CWM isn't properly there it just keeps looking for it and just keeps on going in that loop.
would love to hear from anyone.
Thanks again.

there is also temporary state for recovery and that might be the cause of this
so try to reflash recovery through adb

Thanks for the reply, I would love to do that but the part that it actually gets stuck at is before any of the OS is loaded,
What happens is when there is power to it (ie battery or when plugged into a wall socket) it will try to boot as if I had held
down the vol +, Power and home and get the "recovery booting" text, from here the screen turns off and vibrates, a second or two later it reboots and repeats.
I might try to get a video of it tomorrow.

U don't need to load OS to do this just boot to Fastboot and use adb interface
If it was useful please hit thanks
Sent from my D6503
A Million Thanks!
Thank you my good Sir!!!
Did just the trick, for some reason I totally overlooked Fastboot.
Always helps to have someone to bounce ideas off of, or someone that knows what they are doing ! HAHA

Hello, so as the title mentioned, I am in something of a similar predicament. Odin Mode is stuck, and it won't recognize any recovery on the phone. How do you boot into fastboot? Could you describe what you did? Thank you in advance.
Odin mode and recovery mode are two different things. You can't get into download mode where you see the android with the shovel?
Hello,
I loaded my SM-G900F with a custom rom and it suddenly died... There is no way to switch it on and when I connect it to my laptop it shows QHSUSB_BULK under device manager. I read a lot of posts and I understand that I need an unbrick image to boot from an sd card. Is that the right thing to do?
I would really appreciate is somebody could help.
Thanks in advance!

What rom, and what version were you on when you started? Which recovery, and which version do you have loaded? What, exactly was the procedure you followed, and what version of which custom rom did you try to flash?

Hi hexavoodoomal!
Thanks for replying to my message. The ROM was Sixperience 7.0. I am not sure about the recovery... I am sure I had TWRP installed.
Everything was working fine. The ROM installed properly and worked with no problems for a couple of days but suddenly the phone died. I am sure that it was updating something from Samsung. ANT+ may be?
Can you help?
Thanks!!

I hope so. Can you boot into recovery by removing the battery, and waiting for 10 secs, replacing the battery, and depressing the volume down button, the home button, and the power on button all at the same time?

No. I cannot boot in recovery mode. I tried several times...
Volume down is download mode
Volume up is recovery
A ROM can not break download mode, it's hard coded into the hardware, if removing the battery hasn't worked, power it on, and hold the power button for 30 seconds, remove the battery for 30 seconds, replace and try again
Oops, ha-ha. I called it recovery' didn't I? My bad. Get into download mode, follow the prompt, get odin, and flash the stock ROM for your phone. You can find links to the latest firmware on this site. There are other sites that have it too, but yiur best served geting it here. That will get you back where you started.
I am at a loss here. After almost 2 years of working flawlessly, my s5e won't boot.
The screen got frozen while using anydesk, and had to force a restart (power button + up and fown volume buttons).
I can see the Samsung logo for less than a second, and then it switches off. Without touching anything, after some seconds the same thing happens.
I tried charching it and similar behaviour: i see charging circle for less than a second, and off again.
I AM AT A LOSS.
I managed to boot it pressing power+volume_up buttons and this is what i see (attached). It can stay like that for a long time so I guess battery and it's connection to the tablet are fine.
PLEASE ANY HELP WOULD BE VERY WELCOME
UPDATE:
I have tried MANY things in the 6 hours since I wrote this post. I am able to put the tablet in download mode and ODIN (and my PC) recognizes it. I am able to flash VBMETA but now TWRP (fail).
At some point the tablet rebooted in normal mode (why?) but got frozen again and had to reboot it.
Anyone can point me to how to recover it? I don't mind right now to loose what is in the internal memory.
Did you try to hard reboot (power_button + volume_down ) for more than 9 seconds.
If did not work then you may have to charge the phone? If its fully charged try to flash stock rom using Odin. When your device does not boot that means the stock firmware is corrupted and needs to be flashed again. That happened to me before and now my phone is working fine. Wanna know how to flash it? Look it up online!

I did try a hard reboot. Same result. I already rooted and installed a custom rom on it (first thing i did).
Twrp is installed but I'm unable to boot to it.
Any more ideas?

Listen up carefully. There is a truck to boot into recovery. When you hard reboot screen will turn black then show logo. While screen is
Black quick hold vol up button and power.
Worked on my galaxy a10. Tell meh the results bro

It just loads the screen attached in my first post.
Try flash via Odin, it still in download mode with this warning.
The tablet was still covered by warranty so I called the seller and they took it to a Samsung repair store. They replaced the motherboard, so I guess it was not recoverable.
The bad news is that they updated to android 11, I was quite happy with old 9.0 because I had TWRP and Magisk working.
Thank you for all that tried to help.
