Hi All,
I've done lots of searching but I'm stumped. Any help appreciated.
Device - Verizon Razr M. New - came with JB.
Rooted using motofail2go JB Superuser. Worked.
Installed Safestrap 3.12 from here.
Was attempting to install EnergyROM following Cheezzzz's Guide.
The instructions don't match what my Safestrap menu looked like, but I thought I had everything going okay. But the ROM wouldn't install. Errored out right away when trying to flash, so I figured I'd boot back to stock and come back later. Now I'm bricked.
The only thing I can get is the initial Safestrap menu after holding Power & Vol up + Vol Dn. It appears for about 10 seconds, but neither the "Recovery" or "Continue" buttons are responsive, then it powers back off.
I'm sorry if this is something simple to get me to where I can RSD, but I'm coming from 4 years on different HTC models, so Motos are a new beast for me.
Thanks in advance,
John
Okay - so I was really just pressing/holding combinations of buttons and I managed to get to the original recovery. Got it in fastboot and am flashing with RSD now.
Edit: RSD flashed back to stock.
Did you have the device plugged in during all this? That stalls Safestrap because the phone is just doing a lazy boot to the battery charging graphic. Glad you fixed it though.

Do you remember the combo you did to get back to recovery? I am having the exact same issue.

Pwr+vol up+vol down until you get to recovery menu. Vol dn until you get to the choice you want, then vol up to choose what you want (vol up is how you select from recovery, fastboot, etc. You can only go down in this menu, not back up. If you miss your choice, just wait and the phone will reboot if you wait too long.) If you choose the recovery option in the beginning menu, you will get the red M and then an Android on its back. At the Android, hold vol down and tap vol up. This will put you into stock recovery.
That combo wouldn't work for me.
If I held down the vol keys and power button, nothing would happen. I tried holding it for three minutes, and nothing. When I let off the keys, the red would pop up after 3-4 seconds and than the SS splash would pop up again without working softkeys.
I came to find that if I started holding down the three keys right when SS splash popped up, I could get into the fastboot menu
Just wanted to know if anything is possible to fix my phone. I was running Gravitron Rom and wanted to try slimbean. I flashed slimbean in cwm everything seemed fine when i went to reboot all it does is stay black, no images and vibrate every few seconds. I have already try to flash to stock by using odin and recieved a successful light from odin but when it goes to reboot itself it still does the same thing black and vibrates every few seconds. I can get into download mode but can not get into stock recovery mode. I have been reading for hours now and can not find a post similar to my problem could someone point in the right direction? Thanks
Try pulling the battery for a minute, replace it and immediately press the recovery combo (vol up + home + power. Release just the power button when the device vibrates and you see the blue script in the top left corner of the screen.) see if that gets you in.

For me on Verizon Note 3 this worked, but the button combo is different. It's the same as ODIN/Download mode:
Hold Vol down, Power, and Home... then Cancel ODIN/Download mode using Vol Down.
I had this same problem where I'd got myself in a "recovery" bootloop from Baja KK ROM... I had a custom power menu that allowed you to choose recovery as a boot option as opposed to selecting it at startup (I know, so hard). I would have the Galaxy Note 3 "Custom" screen then say Recovery mode in the upper left corner in blue, then reboot, etc... Anyway this seems to set it back to normal boot mode.

Hi guys, I've run into a wierd situation with my note 3 were it keeps cycling thru a bootloop. It only gets as far as the "Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Custom" screen, with "recovery booting..." in the upper left corner of the screen. Then it restarts. It will keep doing this until I pull the battery and I can't get anything different to happen. I've tried every combination of buttons but I can't get this thing to go any further. I can't even get it to go into Download mode which is most troubling! Any help or ideas on what to do next would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!
Pull battery, then hold volume down and home button at the same time while pressing power on. This will take you to download mode

Yep, that did it. But I totally don't understand what just happened. Or why that combination of buttons worked this time. I tried it before and it didn't put it into download mode. Hmm. Oh well, I'm up and running. Thanks a bunch!!!

It's because the nc2 firmware everyone flashed didn't include the recovery so when you try to reboot to recovery it is trying to access the nc2 recovery which isn't there.
There is a thread in general , which fixes this problem.

I tried to root my phone S7 Edge 6.1.1 just a moment ago using ODIN and CF Auto Root. I got the PASSES! sign in ODIN but upon phone rebooting I am stuck on the Samsung S7 Edge logo screen with text in red 'Recovery Is Not Seandroid Enforcing" up the top.
At this time I am unable to turn my phone off, when I do it just turns back on and goes to the same screen. I can't get into download or recovery mode either.
Any help on how to fix would by greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Also thought I should add, my phone doesn't get registered when I connect it to my PC either, it wont show up in ODIN so I am unable to flash a stock recovery at this time.
It's trying to boot into recovery.
When you say you rooted with CF Auto Root, what did you do precisely? And did you follow Chainfire's specific instructions regarding the lack of screen output during the process?

Thanks for the reply.
I used CF-Auto-Root-zerolte-zeroltexx-smg925f.tar to root.
The steps I used was to simply put my phone into download mode and use ODIN to flash the file mentioned above. That is as far as I got unfortunately. I did this once before, a few month back when I first got the phone with no issues. I remember having to install TWRP but I couldn't remember if I did that pre-root or post-root. But I think that is where I went wrong.
Now I am unable to do anything with my phone. I can't turn it off, get into download or recovery mode. When I hold down VOL UP+POWER+HOME it just resets the phone back to the samsung logo screen.
Any ideas on what I could do?
You used the CF Auto Root file for an S6 Edge.

OH GOD. You're right. I just realized that. I was supposed to have them saved into their own folders but I guess I saved that one too the wrong folder.
So what does that mean for the life of my phone then? Is it toast or is it recoverable somehow?
What is your model? Is it the SM-G935F? If so, first things first, download the correct CF Auto Root file for your device (here) and try again. Press VOL DOWN+POWER+HOME and it should reboot into Download Mode. Then try to flash the correct file in Odin again.
These phones are very difficult to hard brick, especially with something like CF Auto Root so you should be ok.

Yes, it is a SM-G935F. Unfortunately I am unable to reboot the phone into Download Mode. When pressing VOL DOWN+POWER+HOME it just takes me straight back to the Samsung logo where it says "Recovery Is Not Seandroid Enforcing". I'm hoping that once the battery drains completely I will be able to boot into Download Mode again.
Try simply resetting it instead. Press volume down and the power key (don't press home) for around 7-10 seconds. Once it starts to reset, remove your fingers from the buttons very briefly then press volume down, home and power to enter download mode.

That hasn't worked either unfortunately.
I just found this thread from a guy having a similar problem. He just had to wait for his phone's battery to drain completely and then he was able to enter download mode again.
You shouldn't have to though. If you can get the phone to reset at all (even if it's to make another attempt to go into recovery) then providing you time it right, you should be able to get into download mode. Did keeping your fingers on just the volume down and power buttons do anything? Keep them on continuously for up to 20 seconds and see what happens. Did you say pressing vol up & home & power made it reset and try to again get into recovery? What happens if, as soon as the screen indicated it's resetting, you remove your fingers and quickly press vol down & home & power instead?
Anyway, even if you have to wait until the phone dies, getting into download will be possible eventually. Then worst case scenario would be you having to reflash stock back. Or, as would be my preference, flash TWRP then flash a custom rom zip like Superman.
Just to confirm, I take it you selected OEM Unlock in dev options?

I have never had any trouble getting into recovery or download before so I know the method. But just the properly clarify for you I will explain some of the combination I have tried without success. Bare in mind the phone is constantly turned on and idles on the Samsung logo.
I have tried:
Hold VOL DOWN+POWER+HOME, the phone resets and goes back to the logo.
Hold VOL DOWN+POWER, same as above.
Hold VOL UP+POWER+HOME, nothing happens at all.
Hold VOL UP+POWER, same as above.
Hold VOL DOWN+POWER+HOME, release and repress all on black screen, just goes back to logo.
Hold VOL DOWN+POWER, release and hold VOL DOWN+POWER+HOME on black screen, just goes back to logo.
and numerous other things like random combination to try and enter Download or Recovery mode, which have all failed.
Right now it's just stuck on the Samsung logo and staying there, taking forever to drain battery. I work in the morning so hopefully it is dead by then and I can get into Download mode.
Have already started download stock firmware in hopes that I will be able to flash it after.
Thanks a bunch for your help. If you think of anything else I might be able to try let me know!
Oh wow. 100+ attempts and I followed your last post about holding for up to 20 seconds. I was waiting ~5 seconds and releasing thinking that it hadn't worked.
Finally go into Download mode and will flash stock firmware and let you know how I go.
Thanks again! I owe you a cold one.
EDIT: Was no need to flash stock firmware. Just flashed the proper version of CF Auto Root and it worked. Again, thank you so much!
Fantastic. Hope you get it sorted.
On a side note, you have probably already tripped knox and you will have lost you OS data and possibly even what you have stored on internal storage. If so, I suggest you install TWRP, format data (you will lose everything with this but it removed encryption) and install a custom rom like Superman 1.9 from your external SD. It's better than plain stock and comes pre-rooted with plenty of other mods.
I can't get it to work? What keys did you held down?

hello,
my S7 Edge was rooted with cf-auto-root and worked fine but after 2 monthe I've installed LBE_Security_Rel_6.1.1928_A1_DE_v5_signed and reconized the message device is not tooted.
I was not very clever and cofirmed the question "fix the root problem" I don't remember exactly the words. After that root was gone.
I've flashed the stock Fw G935FXXU1APD1_G935FDRE1APC3_DRE but I still have the message "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" after trying to root with CF auto root.
AP:G935FXXU1APD1
CP:G935FXXU1APD1
CSC:G935FDRE1APC3
Is there any way to get root again
Any help on how to fix would by greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Simply hold down Home + Power + Volume Down for 10-15 seconds - don't release when the phone initially reboots and gives the same error, keep them held down and download mode will appear. I have to hold for 11 seconds, a strangely unrounded number.
Hello Guys I have this Same issue Yesterday....... This happens when you flash outdated CF Autoroot. CF Autoroot Updated on 25/08/2016... Download it...
Fix for Stuck in Logo Screen
Just Click and Hold ...... Vol Down + Menu + Power Keys ...... DO NOT RELEASE. IT Will Restart. DONT release. It will restart again and you will be download mode.
i found this during the rooting process. its a bit different to older samsungs on the s7 / s7edge. YOU HAVE TO KEEP HOLD OF VOL DOWN + HOME + POWER until it enters download mode, which can be 20-25 seconds
