Hi all,
I have a weird situation here. I have a vibrant and I installed on it the official middle-east froyo ROM for the international galaxy s. Then I wanted to root the device, but the thing is, it thinks I'm using the international I9000 galaxy, so now pressing the power button in the recovery mode isn't working, it expects the home button (the physical one) to be pressed, which is available on the vibrant!
help please!
nevermind, I somehow managed to get into download mode and flshed it.
im having the same issue how did u fixed it?
Yes please how did you get it to go to the download state I'm STUCK!

Hi guys , i currently have a Samsung Galaxy S4-I9505 (un-rooted) . Just a few days back , it started to shut down by itself for no reason and when i try to on it again it will get stuck in the "Samsung Galaxy S4" boot up screen and goes blank again . I have tried to restart it many times in safe mode and tried to wiping the cache but it goes blank as soon as i try to press something . Another solution i saw was to re-flash the firmware using KIES , but i can't even get it to work (no LED light when plugged in to charger or the computer ) . I did call Samsung service hotline and they think that there is a problem with the motherboard so they suggest i send it to get checked . So , any suggestion on how to fix this ? Any help would be greatly appreciated . Thanks !

Hi mate,
First thing i would do is a backup of personal data and apps
Check if any of the pushbuttons is stuck , specially the power button
Can you go to recovery , can you go to download mode?
Try first a factory reset and see if it help,if not i would reflash firmware with Odin...BUT if it is in warranty still take it to them and have it fix

Hi there , is there a way for me to do backup without turning the phone on ? since currently i can't turn my phone on .
I do not think that any buttons are stuck seems fine on the outside, but after going through some youtube videos i think there might be something stuck internally ? so maybe i will take it out and try to see if it works .
I can get to the page where it shows recovery and download mode sometimes but if i press a button to select an option it will go blank straight away .
Sadly it is not under warranty anymore , maybe i will open it up and give it a try first .
Thanks for the reply !

Hi ,
unfortunately no you need the phone to be on.
Even if the buttons look fine they may be stock , if you know how open the phone and try to wiggle them

My Galaxy core prime from staright talk will not go into recovery at all, using hard keys vol up, home, and power. when i try to turn it on it goes to the samsung logo and then it goes black screen and vibrates sometimes, the only thing i have been able to do with it is put it into firmware down load mode, im not sure what the best coarse of action to take from here, does anyone have any good answers to my problem, this whole problem is the result of trying to install twrp custom recovery using flashify , so if someone can help me out i would really appreciate it thank you
So recently I have put myself in a sticky situation where I have bricked my s6 edge + By a stupid attempt to remove root through the supersu app. I have wiped the phone with the stock recovery options and it still wont boot. I am unable to get into download mode for some unknown reason so i can't just Odin a new os or whatever (as you can probably tell I have a very basic knowledge on phone rooting etc..) To make things even better is that my volume up button is broken but sometimes work if you smash it!
Please help me guys
Thanks
