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

umm..
keep trying Download mode should work as long as your phone has some-sort of lighting up and stuff.
You might be HARDWARE LOCKED, meaning that the volume buttons won't work for you.
You may want to try a JIG. you can see how to build or buy here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rdn5GoRjhn0
it says captivate but its the same.
a question to you; has you ever been into download mode, or recovery mode without being in the rom, but using the volume buttons to get into it?

A little background story would help...did you did you root your phone , flashed an official or custom firmware?
please help
the phone got rooted by a friend cousin i have no clue. all i know is i held power, up volume, and home it says recover boot... and it keep reseting i can do noting my phone keep restarting all i see is a quick blink of a little android man that its restarts over and over again please help phone wont boot
when trying put the phone in download mode by pressing Volume down, Home and Power buttons phone goes into factory mode and the choices in there are:
Auto Test
Manual Test
Item Test
Test Report
Debug Test
Clear eMMC
Version
Reboot
When i do Volume up and power i get to a screen with an android on his back his chest open and a red triangle with an exclamation mark in it. i know its android recovery but it cannot flash roms.
all i want to do is put a recovery on this phone. Ive already rooted it with kingroot so its rooted just need a recovery and a new rom for the one that came on this phone is horrible!!!
Ive tried downloading twrp supersu etc from play store installed them and when they try to install recovery or su they say they cannot.
also have installed all the different usb drivers ive found for samsung and odin
btw my pc is a decade old windows xp dinosaur
Thanks for any assistance in getting to put a recovery on.
wow did not think this would stump the xda community. anyone can tell me of another way to get a recovery on it would be great
Getting recovery on my N9108v wasn't a problem. I didn't see those options you mentioned. I must say I hate my phone but I have no problem getting to download mode. I guess at least the latest firmware is an improvement... but I had to reinstall everything because of a Google issue. Sigh.
Ok, here's what I do - I connect my phone to the computer using samsung usb connector - I press home key and press down volume, while powering up. A screen with chinese and a yellow triangle appear. I then press volume up and it goes into downloading mode and connects to Odin. That simple ... Maybe your phone is not a N9108v or is a copy? Maybe it's your kings thing software and choice of TWRP
I didn't use Kings whatever - I used the chainfire thingy and a chinese derived and downloaded CWM. Never bothered with TWRP for this phone as I doubt anyone has cared enough to make a version work on it. The N9108v is a dud in terms of anyone actually developing anything on it. I HATE THIS PHONE. I am eagerly awaiting the Xiaomi 5 or some other phone- almost went the ONeplus 2 - that can set me free and back to messing around and having fun with brilliant developer ROMS. Oh and did I mention I hate this phone! I know now that I cannot suffer another Samsung or any other phone that is made for the Chinese community that has no developer community.
Anyway, After Chainfire rooting - From Odin you can flash the recovery of choice, right? I think you only have CWM as a choice.
Then it is home button and up volume at the same time to get into your new recovery... Not easy to do first up, but once you do it a few times, it becomes stupidly easy.
I believe my phone is Hard-Bricked.
It is a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime sm-G530a.
Its AT&T.
It was running 5.1.1 Lollipop.
Basically I opened developer options , Ticked OEM Unlock, An enabled USB Debugging.
Then I used KingRoot APK to Root Phone.
Everything was successful I used RootChecker from Playstore to check root. It was Rooted.
Then I Installed TWRP Manager from Play Store, and here's where I messed up.
It asked me to locate my device, An I accidentally installed Galaxy Grand Prime Duo Recovery.
So the phone restarted an all I get is Blank Screen and it Vibrates every 1-3 Seconds.
The computer wont recognize it and I have no clue what to do.
So please anyone on here with more smarts then me please lend a Helping hand.
I don't mind donating after problem is resolved cuz its a cheaper option than buying all new device,
P.S.
There are three stages to bricked correct,
1. Bricked wont Do Anythin!
2. Hard Bricked Messed up System Partition, Blah Blah!
3. Soft Bricked simply Install new OS or what have you!
I just recently flashed a recovery instead of a boot img and had some issues I swung hard at and succeeded. I know how it feels to be there man. Hope to help here, can you boot into download mode??
Vol Up, Menu, Pwr Button? This way you can flash stock 5.1.1 using Odin...
Try booting to download mode. If is won't work try the jit cable method
Sent from my SM-G530H using XDA-Developers mobile app
re
there is another way aswell.. if he can go to recovery then clear cache three times then clear factory 3 times and take out battery. now here's the hard step (a little) : hold the download mode combo keys and put in the battery
and the computer will recognize it.
carefully follow steps and i think it will work.
Hello there,
I don't know much about rooting and flashing and other things because it's not my cup of tea. Coming to the point, yesterday I followed a guide to root my Samsung Galaxy E7 using the CF Autoroot flash file. But things didn't go well, after a few seconds of starting flash process using the Odin tool, my phone lost connection with the PC. Odin was still flashing the file but when I checked the log it said removed. I noticed that my phone's download mode is also got stuck. So I got panicked and pressed vol down + power + home to hard restart the phone, and then my got stuck on Emergency Recovery Screen (I forgot to take the photo of the message flashing on that screen). Currently my phone's battery is drained and its resting.
So please tell me if there's any way to fix my phone. A simple method please because I don't know much about these things. And another is that whether my data is still safe or erased.
Thanks in advance
