[Q] S3 unable to boot in recovery and download mode

Hello everybody,
I was trying to change my ROM with the new S4 Revolution v12, but after the installation this ROM doesn't work at all.
It keeps me in the SAMSUNG logo screen or in the first page of the ROM setup.
I was trying to go in Recovery mode and/or Download mode to solve the problem but neither of these modes are now accessible.
What can I do to recover from this situation?
Thank you very much
Paluss
You are posting in the wrong place .
Presumption is that you have read the faqs and guides .
No recovery or download mode requires a paid for service repair .
But first buy a USB recovery jig to see if you can access download mode .
Sorry... thanks for your advise about usb jig.

Flash philz recovery..
In the power off options you have download mode
You can enter it from there
Edit : For using the Download Mode from TWRP, Press Reboot and then Download..

You must be using a wrong combination of keys while trying to boot into download mode
Ok for Now your recovery is working so you can adb push a custom rom from your pc to your mobile (given that you have cwm recovery installed) then just flash it
For adb to work you need correct drivers to be installed and maybe you will also need to manually update the driver through device manager

Thank You very much for the help. Im kind of new to ADB how ever I managed to learn how to use it. So I inastalled it and tried by plugging the devices but S4v device is not detected when the ADB Devices command given. I tried using S duos 2 and detects fine. Im so confused with this. Also didnt the part mannually updating drivers from Android SDK Manager.
Thank You again for the Help!

You can always use a recovery to get into the download mode.
Flash Stock rom..
Root your phone
Download quickboot from the play store/Wanam xposed.(for activating 4 way boot menu...
Get into Download mode from there..
Doesn't this work??

If you don't have downloade mode, then you probably got a clone.

Hi mate ,
If that is right and if what @Lennyz1988 said is not true you need a USB Jig or a Jtag to get into download mode

If you see those options on your screen then you are in recovery mode, NOT download mode mate. It sounds like you are pressing Vol UP + Home + Power instead of the correct way that @Er. Adityaexplained already. Please try it once more and make sure you are pressing Vol DOWN + Home +Power

Unfortunately it sounds like you might have a clone note 4, not the real thing. I've owned a few Samsung from different parts of the world but as far as I remember download mode was always in English on all of them. I could be wrong, but that's just my 2 cents...

That is my feeling too but IMEI checked out which probably doesn't mean anything and on inside under the battery it says N910F . Maybe Samsung could tell me if it is a clone , is there any other way to check besides IMEI ? That is what i get in download mode

There's an app on Play Store called Phone INFO *samsung* that might be helpful. By the looks of the pic I think it's a clone, I thought maybe your phone had the correct looking download mode and it was just written in Chinese (like maybe you had a chinese bootloader/download mode) but that screen shot looks nothing like download mode on any Samsung device I've ever seen except on clone devices. Sorry I do not have more useful or positive info. Good luck!

But the CWM recovery is in Chinese language.
How can I change that to English ?
There is no option to change that Chinese language. If you want to use recovery in English then you should switch from CWM Recovery to TWRP Recovery. Its better than CWM Recovery. Here is link to download TWRP Recovery for Lenovo K3 Note.

Unroot you mobile in option from SuperSu application & reboot you device. After reboot, go to recovery mode & install updatesu.zip again.

Which recovery you are using?
Thanks bro.
Keep up the good work.
Finally able to remove bloatwares(was irritating me much).
BTW use TWRp.
I guess the adb & fastboot method is far better, safe and quicker method than the SPFtools. Another xda forums thready can be referred for the method.

Newbie Needs ur Help :(

Hello,
I am Complete New in Android Root etc... , I was a iPhone Jailbreaker which everything was mega easy with just some clicks. Now I got a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 "SH9005" on "Lollipop 5.0" Version.
I have Rooted it and using "Freedom" everything works fine and I thought that is everything what about "Rooting" is but I found out Yesterday that there are more Awesome things I can do with "Root" But I dont know how, I have watched many Videos but non of them works or I am Stupid to Understand it xD so I Joined this Awesome Community to look for Help, I am Sure someone know everything about it
I Need you guys Help for.
°How to Install "xposed framework"
°How to Install "Custom Recovery"
I have tryed to Install a Custom Recovery, but everytime I wanna go to Recovery Mode it shows me the Downloading Mode
My best advice for you is to Google "How to root Galaxy Note 3" and the same for "installing exposed" and "custom recovery" and read, read and then read some more. The info is there. Do your research or risk messing up your note 3.
Not trying to be difficult but you really need to do some research.
I have done many research but didnt found anything which is helpfull.
My Note 3 is Rooted (Lollipop 5.0) but the Custum recovery and the other I cant figuer
Out how to Install that, that wjy I am asking if anyone got a Idee
That's odd, when I Google how to install "custom recovery galaxy note 3" I get all kinds of info.
If you search Custom Recovery for Note 3 on Google, there will be lots of info you can find there.
For example, for the TWRP Recovery, there is a installation guide in the official website.
I am also a newbie in the Android World but I have try hard to Google first before asking questions.
Hope this helps.
Look at Youtube videos for how to flash custom recovery or eventually rom flashing etc. (ones with lots of likes). They are alot more visual and easy to follow. Sometimes some of the threads in XDA have confusing language.
FAQS and GUIDES,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/samsung-galaxy-note-3-sticky-roll-t3237249

I didnt Found any Download Link for "KK/Lollipop" in the Topic as in their Website, but I have Downloaded from their Website, the TWRP for "Samsung Galaxy Note 3 International Qualcomm (hlte)" and Flashed it through Odin, in Odin it says "Pass (Green)" but when I try to Boot on Recovery Mode I get to > Downloading... Do not turn off target!! < and Up on the Corner it says
"Could not do normal boot.
ODIN MODE
Product Name : SM-N9005
Current Binary : Custom
System Status : Custom
Reactivation Lock : OFF
KNOX Warranty VOID : 0x1 (4)
Qualcomm Secureboot: Enable (CSB)
RP SWREV: S2, T2, R2, A3, P3
Secure Download : Enable
UDC START"
But the Phone Boots Normal, and works Normal too just when I am trying to enter Recovery Mode I am getting this Message.
The Way I have Done :
1. I have Downloaded from Orginal Site of TeamWin the .tar file for "Samsung Galaxy Note 3 International Qualcomm (hlte)"
2. I have Shut Down my Phone and Booted to Download Mode
3. I have Connected my Phone to PC
4. I have Run Odin "As Admin"
5. I have but the .tar File in the "AP" Section
6. I have Uncheckt "Auto Boot"
7. I have Pressed Start and got Green Color and says "Pass"
8. I have Removed the Battery of my Phone and putted it back in
9. I have tryed to boot into Recovery Mode
10. I get this Message which I wrote it up
I tryed to leave the Buttons when the Samsung Logo shows but it is too fast it is like 0,5sec and it shows me the Message which I wrote it up there...
I have Searched in Google & Youtube but all what I get is people with the Same Problem but they are getting this because they Installed another ROM which I didnt.
Hope for a Fix

How are you trying to start recovery? there are two key combinations for download mode and recovery mode, pwr + vol up + home is recovery mode, and pwr + vol down + home is download mode if I remember right. Give a try to both combinations and I hope it works. If your note 3 doesn't boot properly, you should try to repair it, first with kies and, if that doesn't work, flashing a new rom.
Probably you've flashed wrong file. Find the 1 with hlte 4.4. The latest is 2.8.7.0.
