Hi,
Try installing the ROM provided by 'voluptuary' (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1528984 - [ROM] Clean ROM - Stock UI - RTM 8858 Base - Focus v1.3 - 7.8 Official).
Edit: I do not know if you will be able to get back your data. I am using 'voluptuary's ROM and it is pretty clean.

I reverted back to original ROM 2010
Buddy i reverted back to 2010 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131022
but still when it restarted it again gets logged off after samsung logo:crying:

I had the same problem while flashing one of the custom ROMs and whatever I did, the device used to get stuck on Samsung logo screen - blink for a while and turn off and again the Samsung Logo appeared. It would not enter Download mode nor MAGLDR mode. Here is what I did and it worked, I do not know if it will work for you.
Try the following:
1. Check whether you can enter Download Mode - (Vol Up + Camera + Power).
2. If Download Mode appears select Format and Format your device.
3. After Formatting, again enter Download Mode and install MAGLDR (provided in Voluptuary's ROM folder) and flash Voluptuary's ROM (3.10a).
If you are unable to enter Download Mode try this:
1. If you have installed MAGLDR in your mobile earlier, check whether you can enter MAGLDR mode (Vol Down + Camera + Power).
2. Once in MAGLDR mode you can install the ROM 3.10a mentioned above.
For me both did not work initially and here is what i did:
1. Turned off the phone, and connected the USB cable to the device and connected it to my PC - left it for a while (may be - 20 - 30 mins).
2. Samsung Logo was still blinking.
3. Disconnected the USB, turned off the device (Removed the battery and re-inserted). Pressed in held Vol Up + camera and then connected the USB cable, the Samsung logo appeared again and out of frustration i pressed Power button (Vol Up + Camera was still being held) couple of times repeatedly and voot... the phone entered Download mode. First thing I did was to format and re-install the MAGLDR and I proceeded flashing the ROM and now my phone works fine. Don't know what was the main cause yet.
I hope the miracle works for you too.

behind every miracle there is a reason
Tried everything u said...didn help!!!...
Is there someone talented:silly: enough to resolve this issue?

DVP stuck at boot logo, cannot enter recovery!

Gentlemen,
Today, I play something with my phone: using cab sender to update from 7004 to 7720. Prior to flashing 7720 cab files, I flash the 407216_venuepro_qisdaupdatepks_gleos2a_us_tmo_signed_swv0219_lp0030_rv001_retail.pks_c13ae38ec4ab63aeb46ee1f7bbee3ab878390112.cab file. The progress seems to be OK, but after finishing I cannot enter my phone.
The Dell logo shows up everytime, and I cannot enter recovery mode as I tried to roll back to 7004 again (pressing Power + Vol (-) + Cam keys). Seems like, the same problem was reported by @nokser at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KwSw9otFls.
Does anyone of you know how to fix this issue? Thank you for your help always!

[Q] MAGLDR not loading

Some months back I installed Dynamics ROM v2.1.
Yesterday I wanted to flash the newest version 2.2 on my Omnia 7.
But I'm unable to enter the MAGLDR screen with volume down + power button + camera button.
It gives a faible vibration when it tries to enter the MAGLDR menu but the Samsung Omnia 7 logo just keeps standing there.
After a few seconds the logo disappears and reappears.
When I release the buttons the phone just loads the currently installed ROM.
Same with the Download mode; Although when holding volume up + camera button, then inserting the usbcable I'm able to enter download mode.
Anyone experienced this before?

Did you try to reinstall the magldr with download mode + dft tool?

Thanks Anaheiim,
I managed to install the MAGLDR v2 again with updating samsung usb drivers.
Altough it works, the only way I can get into the menu is:
- remove battery
- insert battery again
- hold volume down + camera button
- attach usbcable to phone
Then after pressing the back button I managed to get into the MAGLDR menu.
Without the USB cable I cannot get it to work, but at least it is working again.

I will give your ROM a go aswell. I think I did try one of your beta versions some time ago.
Can't recall the reason for switching back to dynamics, though.

I have sorted out what the exact issue is, the camera hardware button needs to be pressed really hard.
It seems to not always register when I press it.

Cannot enter recovery mode after updating CM13 nightly

Hey guys,
I feel totally stupid for writing this post but I'm actually out of ideas how to get out of my situation. Also I didn't find any comparable topic here on xda. So let's hope you can help me and a big thanks in advance!
First of all i have a flashed D802 running TWRP and CM13, which worked well the last weeks. I thought about updating to the todays nightly as it is already a few weaks since I did my last update. I downloaded the nightly via the CM downloader and started the installation with running phone. It rebooted into recovery mode and installed the nightly without any problems. After the installation was completed the phone automatically rebooted and this is where the problem starts.
I am stuck in "bootloop?" at the CM logo. It is not automatically restarting after a while but just loading and loading and nothing further happens. I am not able to enter the recovery mode via the factory reset (Pressing Vol Down + Power, releasing after the lg logo appears, pressing and holding the power button again).
This never happened to me and as I am not able to enter TWRP I am not able to install a previous release or a backup. What am I doing wrong this time and what can I do?
Thanks for your support!

have you tried flashing a stock rom?

Actually I don't really know how to do this when I'm not able to enter the recovery mode? Is there a certain way to do this?
In the meantime I managed to enter the recovery mode / TWRP via a mode I don't know how it is called. I pressed vol down + pw btn, released after the LG logo appeared and pressed vol up + vol down. I guess my userdata is deleted by now, which shouldn't be a big deal but I am getting redirected to the recovery mode. I tried to install the yet working CM13 nightly but it has the same problems now.
Now I have two questions:
Does anyone know which part of the system is broken now / which part I need to update in order to get my phone back to life?
Is the download mode working if my phone is rooted? I am able to enter this mode.

yes you can enter the download mode: turn down your phone, press and hold volume up button and connect the usb cable, release volume up when your screan shows dowload mode.
then follow this tutorial to restore your phone back to stock http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476

Thanks! At least the phone is working at all now.

Bricked :(

I think I may have bricked by M3 . Willing to paypal someone for a solution. Am unable to get into fastboot and it hangs at "your device is booting now...." no matter what button combo I press.
Have tried battery drain trick as well.

Have you tried creating a dload folder on your internal storage or sd card? Put the update.app for your model in there and then press power and up and down volume buttons at the same time.

Probably the only solution is to use an older version of ROM even if for Europe or whatever. Put in dload folder. Follow regular directions for that (two files). Get that older version working. Then unlock bootloader, install TWRP, then try upgrade again. I think I had to install TWRP 5 before it could be used for the upgrade to current ROM (EMUI 5).

I'm having the same problem as OP. The dload folder in the sd card method is apparently not an option as volume up + down + power doesn't enter the recovery mode. It either will just hang at "your device is booting now...." or it will flash the red charging symbol.

I have unfortunally exactly same problem.

When trying the button combo to enter recovery have you got the usb cable plugged in to your tablet?

Are you trying a non 5.0 build? Mine did what yours did and won't build with a 5.0 build. Try a 4.1(?) build and it should eventually boot (after a good while).

I have the same symptoms.
How did you solve it?

yes.
If the cable is not connected, the power will not turn on because it is discharged..
Is there a way to solve this problem?

Try connecting it to a PC and use ADB to get into fastboot.

"Device is now booting." It stops here.
And is not recognized by the PC.
There is no driver problem.

Probably a stupid question but have you tried the button combo to get it into recovery whilst it's connected to the PC? Your PC probably isn't recognising it because it's stuck on device is booting now.

Volume Up + Power, Volume Down + Power, Volume Up + Power and all combinations.
However, the same screen is repeated.
Recovery mode, fast boot mode, and erase mode can not be entered in any mode.

Yes. The high suit is installed on the PC.
However, it is useless because the PC does not recognize the mediapad.
