Stuck in Odin - Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Tab 4 is stuck in Odin, pressing power and volume down does nothing, tried every possible combination of buttons but can't reset it. Please help, the only info it gives me other than recover in Kies is that it has a custom binary and system status is official. Completely stuck right no, pressing buttons only turns the screen black and then goes back to the same screen.

You need to also press home.

Tried that as well didn't work so I just let it die so I could reboot it now I'm just looking for a stock rom to flash it with

[Q] Please help,phone works normally, but, getting Stuck on fastboot and recovery

Dear experts,
Phone model: Karbonn A9+
Rom: Custom Rom Hyperion Skyfall
When I hold the power button, the phone turns on and off, No problems with that.
However, when I press volume Up+Power, I get a green screen saying FASTBOOT at the top left corner and that’s it. Nothing happens from that point.
when I press volume Up+Power, I get a green screen and holding the buttons past that I get a red screen saying RECOVERY at the top left corner and that’s it. Nothing happens from that point.
However, when I press volume down+Power, I get a black screen saying ENTRY QPST DOWNLOAD at the top and that’s it. Nothing happens from that point.
I have to remove the battery to turn my phone off.
Moreover, I tried a factory reset erasing internal and external storage, after erasing when the phone is rebooted and gets stuck in the start-up screen. I removed the battery and powered on the mobile ,no problem at all the phone turns on but not resettted.
What I did?
Tried to install latest CWM through recovery, updated it but I pressed something instead of restart your device.
What should I do to make everything work again? I am a noob in Android, please be extra patient and illustrative
Many thanks in advance

[Q] Stuck in boot-loop and recovery mode doesn't work on stock android

I have a Samsung galaxy note 4 with stock android. My phone shut itself off while I was listening to pandora, and when I tried to turn it back on, it got stuck rebooting.
It gets to the Samsung splash screen, and no further. Even when I try to enter recovery mode using volume up + power + home, the splash screen appears with 'RECOVERY BOOTING..." in the corner, but it just reboots again.
I have tried turning the phone off completely using the power button, then turning it on again. I have tried removing the battery, letting it sit, and trying to restart again. I have tried charging it to see if that was the problem, but it's not. If I use volume down + power + home, I can get to the custom OS options, but I have not rooted my phone, so I don't know what the 'continue' options does.
How can I get my phone working again?
Turn off the phone. Enter download mode instead of recovery (volume down + home button + power) and open Odin on your PC and under AP add your .tar file (via Sammobile) and hit OK in order to get stock Touchwiz on your Note 4 again.

hi
firstly ,
If you cannot "factory reset " in recovery ....then and if nothing else works ? and you don't want to take phone to service provider /Samsung service centre .............
last resort is to( but you have to know what you doing !!!!)
is to reflash your device /phone current stock ROM,(that you were on),with Odin /pc..laptop
If you are unsure "how to flash ?" i suggest to Google /search for an straight forward video ,on web /Youtube ?
if so and you can get into download mode ( phone off ,pull battery..... insert battery , volume down + power + home button ) When in download mode ,volume up again and follow normal procedure to flash your stock ROM with Odin
Remember ..that above to flash stock Rom with Odin ,you don't need root.
Also ,in your post above you refer i quote......
"I can get to the custom OS options, but I have not rooted my phone, so I don't know what the 'continue' options does"
i think what you actually mean that you can get into download mode ,???...................
and the volume up is when you" ready " to flash your device and connected to pc/laptop with Odin ...
Also make sure if you know how to reflash ..... that before reflashing with Odin ,you have ticked correct boxes in Odin( .....and how Odin works )
Bottom line ...if nothing else works ,
a reflash of your correct phone ( current stock ) Rom you were on ,should fix it .
good luck

Recovery Is Not Seandroid Enforcing

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?

recovery is not seandroid enforcing
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

S7 Edge Bricked

I recently (successfully?) rooted my phone, but couldn't make phone calls or texts so I tried factory resetting it. The factory reset worked but I still had the root and I couldnt make calls or texts, so I tried multiple times to unroot it through Odin and it said it worked on my last attempt, but now my phone is stuck on a black screen and a blue LED pops up. I get no vibrations or feedback from my phone. I've tried all the combos to reset, down home power, down power, power home up, home power, all of them. My only hope is to let the phone die of power and recharge it and see if it will work. Does anyone have any ideas? When I plug it in to my computer it wont detect it either.
check your IMEI with *#06#!
when you have no IMEI you need the EFS BackUp...hope you have it.

power button + volume down. When it reboots, quickly get into download mode the same way you would normally. And same as above post, EFS back.. if it's not resolved from factory reset.
I have had this problem.
If you just hold power vol- down it will reboot and when reeboting, just keep holding the same buttons until you get the Download Mode.
If not try holding power vol- up until geeting into recovery, then go trough download mode from there.
You just have to hold the buttons down, it wil maybe restart but just keep holding these buttons trough the restarts.
In download mode you have to do a fresh install with a rom of your choice from Sammobile, orginal firmware.
And remember to never Factory Reset your phone after innstaling ROOT and Recovery.
The best way to do factory reset after these are firmware flash trough Odin.

Galaxy S7 edge won't turn ON and no charging indications

Hi
My phone was stuck at black screen with blue LED light. I waited for it to drain completely, and then charge it so I can flash new firmware. I enter download mode, flash new firmware and it was a success. It restarts and then stuck again on blue screen with Android robot and some like no signal tv effects on the screen, which I think it crashed. Then I forced restart it using vol down+power and it boots up with blue screen wtih "no command" error. I tried restarting it again and it fully dies on me. It won't turn on again.
Button combinations seem not working, no charging indications.
How can I fix this?
Is it bricked? If so, changing motherboard will fix this?
Try leaving it on charge for a while. The charging light should light up. When you go in recovery, on the "no command" screen, press and hold power button and press the vol. up button. That will take you to the admin / recovery screen.
I didn't know it either and was thinking the recovery is corrupt or not working. It is actually waiting for that command from you (power+vol. up). Once in, you can navigate through the menu using vol. up and down to move and power to select an option.

I manage to get the phone working again and booted up on "No Command" screen again. Holding vol up and power doesn't work. But I manage to do download mode instead, installed new firmware and again, it crashes after Odin successfully pass it.
I attached a photo of the crash.
Btw I think it's charging now but there's no LED light.
-_- Just both this few months ago.
EDIT: also when I restart my phone using vol down, home, and power keys to restart my phone then Vol up+power+home or without home, it skips the factory reset and jumps to "No Command" again. -_-
This is hardware failure.
Go to Samsung service.

Ok I will try that, but can you link me where can I download this pit file? thanks
Update:
I tried to downgrade it, and now I'm stuck installing updates, can't go past it. -_-
oh god, last time Lg G4 gave me headache and now my s7 edge is suffering from abnormalities too. -_-
I had this same problem, I sent the web store that I imported and I am waiting for answers, because it is still under warranty. With each passing day I see more of this problem happening, I find it very worrisome.
Its a hardware issue mate. Had this recently and changed the Mainboard. You should let it replaced if u are in warranty.

UPDATE:
After flashing different kinds of Nougat firmwares nothing happens. Charging light and key lights are dead at this point. Then I flashed some MM firmware, one of these firmware gives life back to the dead LED lights on the notification and keys but phone still can't get pass the blue screen with "erasing" or "installing updates" message. After multiple times of force rebooting it by pressing vol down+power, it booted itself to recovery mode(thanks god!) and I don't know why. Lol. Wipe cached it and factory reset and still brought me back to "erasing" or "installing updates" blue screen. Then finally, after flashing the UK stock MM, all lights came back to life. It's working fine right now and I don't think I'll update it to Android N just yet.
