Phone stuck at bootloader exception - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hello, for some reason my phone got stuck in the bootloader exception. I know I could potentially fix this through odin but I have quite the problem. I use a chromebook! Also Odin is a windows app so I was wondering if there are any other options for me to try to fix my phone?
trying to get into recovery mode/download mode fails as well. Only thing I could do is turn it off briefly (volume down + menu + power) then it goes back into bootloader.
Cant send it in back cause I bought it from a different country. (will visit that country soon but I need to get this phone working for travel/communication purposes)

Are you sure you can't get into Download mode?
I had this problem and it was hard to fix, but after holding -Vol, Home, and Power, after about 8 reboots it worked and I fixed it with odin.
Hold, keep holding these buttons until Download Mode appears.

Power/home/volume up is the combination for recovery, not download. Try again with volume down.

tried that as well, always goes back to bootloader
edit: do i have to plug in my phone first with odin? or it should go to download mode without odin yet?

Cant boot into recovery of fastboot mode

Hi,
I flashed TWRP and CM 10.1 but then I got problems with the phone not charging (still having that issue but will post it in another thread). Anyhow I decided to reflash the the stock rom and during the flash the phone randomly restarted. Luckily for me I was able to boot up and everything is working fine. the only problem is i can now longer access my system recovery (power and vol down) or fastboot mode (power and vol up). When trying power and vol down the phone starts up as normal. when trying power and vol up the phone vibrates, the bottom 3 keys light up and then nothing. I have to then hold down the power button to turn the phone off and back on. I hope someone can help me troubleshoot this as I have no idea what to do.
Many Thanks!

Recovery is accessed by volume up, volume down, and power held down simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds or until you see recovery. Not sure about fastboot. Have you tried to see if your in fastboot by using adb and checking for fastboot devices. You may be getting fastboot mode. I forget if it actually said anything on the screen. Good luck!

I do not follow any tutorial, i'm already used to change the rom through cwm, wipes, install zip from SD through and wipes again.
But now not open the cwm, is black screen and reboots to normal mode. I do not understand what is happening. :x

yes, I also used this combination of keys to enter the recovery once but now does not work, call a black screen and does not vibrate.
By KDZ also can not do anything because they also do not enter the emergency mode or in "pc suite".
Not even know how to solve this problem: x
And the worst is that I need the smartphone

How do you enter in emergency mode?
I do it by taking the battery off, then conect the cable to phone, hold vol+ (or vol-, i dont remember) and then conect the cable to the pc

Download mode is volume down+home button+power button
Recovery is by pressing the volume up+home button +power button till the logo appears and then leave the combo and within a fraction of a second press the volume up+centre button (not the power button now)
Rest if your phone is actually not going in the download mode how in this world did you reinstall the stock firmware?

I follow your instruction on how to go to recovery and I successfully do it. Done factory reset and wipe cache but still it stuck on samsung logo/boot animation.
I can go to download mode and completely reinstall stock firmware but still the same.
Try doing a factory reset and reboot, when rebooting remove the battery and put it back,
Now go to download mode and flash the stock firmware

Need help! S4 can't go in recovery

Hello! When I power the device on the Samsung Logo appears for 1 second and then it turns off. I can go in download mode but can't in recovery. It just flashes again the Samsung logo and turns off. I tried to flash stock firmware via Odin. It was a success but again the same thing happened. Did I brick the device? Thanks!
When you flashed recovery, did you uncheck auto reboot and boot into stock recovery to perform a factory wipe before booting for the first time?
Does the rom boot?

The actual way to enter recovery is.
Volume up+home+power button
As soon as you see the Samsung logo..leave the combo then within a jiffy press the volume up+home button (no power button...NO POWER BUTTON!!!)
You will enter recovery.

the far simpler method is boot off, then hold volume up and power together (nothing else) until you see blue text at the top of the screen. at this point you instantly want to let go of everything, and that's it...
I've bricked my phone before with mobile Odin and it took out my recovery so I guess it's possible the OP might not actually have one.
@3mel, the stock rom combo is vol up + home + power button.
What you are reffering to is the custom rom combo. For some reason they are different.

Stuck at boot screen

Recently tried to flash a new bootloader and modem in my S7 Edge through Odin, but now the screen is stuck in the Powered By Android initial boot screen. I cannot turn it off by using the power button, the only thing that works is if I press the power button + volume down, however that does not take me to the Download Mode but instead just restarts the phone and back into the Powered By Android screen. Volume Up + Power does not seem to be working.
Am getting desperate now, please help!

Managed to fix it
What I did was keep holding volume down + menu button + power without letting go. It rebooted into the Powered by Android many times but after about 3-5 minutes of holding it straight it finally sent me to the download mode where I was able to install stock S7 Rom.
