Hi, I am an owner of a samsung galaxy j5 (2015) and, unluckily, the power button is almost non responsive, so it is hard to turn it on and, of course, to enter recovery and download mode. What i want to do is edit the file of the bootloader in order to switch the home button and the power button, and change the combination to enter recovery and download. I already have a standard bootloader file ( i downloaded it from this very forum) but i don't know how to edit it. Is it possibile? And will it work? thanks for your answers

Volume Down + Power + Home ---- for Download Mode.
Volume UP + Power + Home ---- for Recovery Mode.
If you want root your mobile, you can go to recovery mode (Volume UP + Power + Home)
then select "update.zip" file from sd card, after then restart your mobile.
If you need updated.zip file, download form this link

I own Galaxy Grand 2 G7102, but it has partially broken touchscreen (menu and back button won't work anymore) and broken power button. Rooting requires go to recovery mode so power button needed and volume down and home button as well
So how I can rooting when power button broken (which it required for recovery mode access)?
While I find parts for my Grand 2, find some solution for me to make rooting without power button needed (I don't need "just replace the power button" topic)
Thanks
UPDATE: I've successfully go to recovery mode via ADB, but I was stuck and I can't select anything cause of broken power button. How I can escape from this before I bring them to repairment? Tried connecting USB while "recovery mode" won't work and it won't detect on my PC!
UPDATE 2: Problem solved. Had I bring them to service center to repair power button

Not sure if its possible on recovery mode, remotely keyboard may come handy.
BTW, how did you turn on the device without [power button?

I've plugged my phone first then I release and reinsert battery quickly to turn it on
Remotely keyboard? How? Using USB OTG?
I installed the UK Stock ROM and now I discovered that the procedure to enter the download mode is not working anymore! I tried the usual keys combination and it just switch on the phone...
I always used Vol - plus home button plus power button and it entered in download mode so that I could flash a new stock firmware by Odin
Doing now this I cannot enter anymore in the download mode!!! Only the recovery mode is possible, with Vol + plus home button plus power button
Somebody can kindly help me?
My phone is stuck on Samsung Galaxy J7 powered by Android screen. Holding down power and volume down buttons for few seconds make the screen disappear for a moment, the phone vibrates, then it returns to the same screen again. How can I fix that? (I guess its because I chose older .img file from twrp.me/Devices/ because the newest one did nothing when I was trying to install TWRP.) I dont have enough posts to post on the developer thread so I posted here
Please help
Approx. battery right now is 65%
Edit: I cant go into recovery mode I have tried alot of times already
Well basically be sure that you're doing the recovery mode procedure right. Try holding the volume up + power button + home button simultaneously. Then let go of the power button when you see the phone logo but remain holding down the volume up + home button. Wait for a while, the recovery mode page should pop up shortly.
Try vol. Up+power+home button. When samsung logo appears go off power button only, keeping the vol. Up and home button pressed. Check if you can enter recovery mod, if not download firmware for your drvice(download the correct latest firmware for your model) in to your pc. Flash it via odin.
Hello,
I bricked my A3 2016 a3exelte while updating TWRP to 3.7.0_9-0.
The phone boots but gets stuck on the very first screen (the one with "Samsung Galaxy A36 powered by android").
I can boot into Download mode but the volume up and down keys don't respond (it's been like that for a while, even before the phone was bricked), so I can't get into Download mode.
Any suggestions to get it back to life?
Hi, not sure i understand, you can boot into download mode, but you cant use up and down keys?
To get into download mode you have to use the down key atleast?
Because i had the exact same problem as you, twrp 3.7.0_9-0 also bricked my phone.
but i used XDA version of odin and another TWRP version to get into twrp to start over.

That's exactly what's happening. Is there a combination of keys that could "unlock" the up and down keys? Or something else?
But if you are in download mode, cant you use odin to flash twrp 3.6 ?
Also if its because it ask you to press up to enter download mode, just press button below screen to get into download mode
Below is the screen where I'm stuck. Up, down, home keys are ineffective.
I'm note really familiar with Odin, but if I connect my phone in the state below and I open Odin, nothing is shown. But I guess it's normal as I'm not really in download mode.
Well like i wrote, if you press any button other than down it will go into download mode, even power button.
