[HELP] Serious problem!

I don't know whether i should've posted this in FAQ, but i suppose this matter calls for an urgent help, guys!
I was on stock rom and stock kernel. I had never tried out the Repencis Rom (including the kernel), so i tried it today. I wiped data and cache, and installed the zip file. The installation was successful. But after rebooting, it got stuck at "Samsung Galaxy Y Young GT-S5360" (the bootloader, i suppose). When i tried to enter the recovery mode and download mode, same thing happened again! Please tell me guys what i should do to get my phone back!!

You should wipe data and cache in both stock and CWM recovery before flashing the rom and in stock recovery after flashing the rom.

Removing the battery is not helping it go to recovery mode!

Still the same problem!!

What problem? Did you do what I said correctly? Flash it again now and restart to stock recovery and do data wipe and reboot. If that doesnt work, repeat the same after flashing a stock ROM.

Remove the battery.. wait for 5 mins... insert battery and try to go in recovery mode. It will work

Hmm I bet you didn't press the download mode combination buttons correctly before . You won't face any such problems with just flashing a custom rom. If you have any back case, remember to remove it and hold the 3 buttons. There won't be any problem flashing repencis or any other custom rom. Just make sure you followed all of the above instructions given by op.

Actually, i'm noticing dis since i changed my CSC.....watever rom i'm installing, it's getting stuck in d bootloader.....it always entered d recovery mode....only dis tym it wasn't entering!!

Please help.

after flashing and ur still in bootloop, then go to Recovery Mode (the android with a red triangle), do a factory data reset. Then you're good to go.

Chainfires open gl drivers won't work on most 4.1+ devices. Also looking over the app description on the play store, the supported devices are all nvidia or exynos based devices. Our phones use a Qualcomm chipset. And the force 4x msaa function is built into the nexus 4. It's under developer options.

Solved!
I used AndroidRootz Mac Toolkit and Voila!. It came back to life. Could someone tell me why the regular wipe data/factory reset did not work?

New problem with phone..

My LG-E612G was restored but had something worrying saying ".android_secure.img not found! Skipping restore of .android_secure.img!"
I then just shrugged it off, but when I rebooted it and got to my unlock screen, it powers off.
I already did a full wipe and restore. Now what?

I think that means there is no file for apps on external memory, don't worry, our phones don't support that.
After a restore over time (i mean, restore a back-up from a month ago) you have to wipe cahce & dalvik cache after restore
Try it

Even one on the 4th of September?
EDIT: Tried it. The only thing different from the boot up was that it said "Android is Upgrading: Optimizing applications 33 of 43"

Can't get into emergency mode. I'm screwed. Today is the day I had to use it.
When I return, I hope someone will have replied. :crying:

You'll get into recovery mode if you Connect your phone To the PC without battery while you press the vol. Down key. than you can restore it With kdz or LG Software update tool.

you can do it with battery to just press and hold the vol - when it is swithed off and connect ur usb cable,,

Thank you! I was FINALLY able to get into Download mode.
Thank you very much!
Right now it is in Download mode, and it is flashing.

Repeated errors.
Keep getting errors whenever I try to enter apps.
EDIT: Tried going into Recovery Mode, factory reseted my phone. That seems to have done the trick.

[Q] Which kind of hard reset ?

Hi,
I took the s4 of my father. I have seen he has never update this one.
So i have done all updates OTA one after one (like 6 or 7 :silly.
Since that, the battery life seems to be horrible !
So i was thinking to hard reset and install all again properly.
The question :
In my case, what's better?
- hard reset by settings in the S4
or
- by recovery (if yes, with cache partition?) ?
Thanks

I would prefer recovery over settings..
Press Volume up+centre button+power button
Select data wipe by volume down
Press power button
But before doing all this, do backup everything in your extsdcard.

When you wipe data, cache will get wiped by itself
But again..both the method's end results are just the same..its about what do you prefer.
Being into so much recovery and stuff, I just like recoveries hahaha
