Okay so I seem to have run into a little problem I was planning on updating cleanrom up to 1.2.5 but was on cwm. I had managed to switch over successfully to twrp 2.2.0. I went ahead and used goo manager to download the updated zip of 2.2.1 and tried flashing it thru twrp. Now I am stuck in google bootloop and cant get into recovery or more importantly bootloader. I have been trying last 30mins to hold power and both volume buttons but it either keeps rebooting back to the google screen or not doing anything at all just have to repress to to turn it off but it will turn back on automatically. I tried hooking it up to my usb and labtop but it looks like it wont even recognize it. I just fully charged it so I am good for now just a little worried cant get out of this mess.
I ran into a problem like that with clockwork recovery it kept on rebooting in recovery but I could still go into download mode I was at work away from my computer so I had no choice but to keep trying that three button magic until it finally restored a backup I had on my external card.just keep on trying to pull the battery then try to go into recovery. You might 've gotten a bad download

problem is I cant get into recovery. or the green screen to get to bootloader. It just completely stuck in a bootloop on the google screen mocking me... I am really contemplating opening it up and taking out battery but is that a good idea? Or is there anything else I can do?
so I pulled off the back cover but really dont want o disconnect the battery might mess something up but I cannot get the device to shut off.
disconnecting the battery does nothing it shuts it off and keeps it off but when I connect it to the charger the battery symbol pops up for a second and then goes completely blank. I went ahead and tried again to boot into bootloader pressing power vol up + down and all combinations of power vol -, power vol +
power turbo press vol +/- but no luck still in google screen.
If you're in a bootloop you need to connect your Nexus 7 to a computer. Then you will be able to access recovery via the Power button and volume buttons.
is it going to make a difference that everytime i try to reboot it just the black google screen? I have tried it connected to the wall charger and connected usb to the labtop but nothing.

It's supposed to do that when you're trying to go to recovery from bootloader without the USB cable plugged into a computer, may need to have the drivers installed on said computer. It's an issue with the nexus 7 bootloader and every one of them does it. What your experiencing is perfectly normal if you tried to go to recovery from bootloader with the bolume buttons and then got the google screen bootloop.
If it doesn't work when you plug it in and try, then try unplugging it, manually rebooting with it plugged in first, or vice versa
Update: I can get on Team Viewer and remotely reboot you into recovery through the PC if you want, or at least give it my best shot.
ok so i disconnected battery and have the device off. I should then try connecting it to the pc and try booting up holding down all buttons?

Have you installed the right drivers on the computer you're using, for ADB and the device drivers, when you unlocked and rooted?
Answer to your question is yes try that. But I wouldn't be disconnecting and reconnecting it, I can't recommend that and then learn tomorrow that static zapped something important.
yea I am getting nothing by connecting to pc. I have all the drivers adb and fastboot installed when I rooted and unlocked couple weeks back but it looks like device is not being recognized or read at all by the pc.
connecting to the pc holding the volume + button gets it recognized for a second and tries to install a driver apx but unsuccessfully.
I am not making any progress whatsoever kinda sucks starting the weekend like this. I have gone thru some bad stuff with my atrix but nothing like this were I cant even access my bootloader boot into recovery or even fastboot. Should I try and get it to just stay off and see if overnight it works its own magic? Hate going to sleep witht his on my mind but I think with a clear mind in the morning something good will happen.
I can get it to stay off by holding both vol+ and vol- but trying to turn it off with just the power button just keeps it turning back on/off...
so I slepted on it thru the night let the tablet rest but went back this morning and I still cant get into bootloader or recovery. Is there anything I can do?
Has anyone else had this problem where they cant boot into recovery or bootloader? It's like the power button and vol keys are unresponsive even though they still work to turn on the device.
are you sure that you flashed the right recovery? but you should still be able to get the bootloader. are you pressing power + volume down(volume down, not both volume buttons. i noticed you wrote both volume buttons) to get into the bootloader?
I think I chose the right recovery the first version downloaded thru goo manager but it was the 2.2.0 version. I had the option on the of downloading the 2.2.1 zip or the .img but i downloaded the .img to just to flash with the current version of twrp that was working. There have been times were I have not been able to get into recovery on my atrix or htc but I've always been able to get into the bootloader this is the first time I've been locked out of my device kind of got me scared its not even a month old. So you say to get into bootloader you dont have to hold down both volume buttons? I will try again to power back up using the volume down and power button at same time... Wish me luck

good luck!
yea, only power button and the volume down button.
quick question before I connect the battery does it make a difference whether or not I have it plugged in charging or connected to the PC while trying to boot into bootloader?
Hello guys, I'm new here and I hope you can help me out.
Let me make the story short.
My phone's screen broke and I replaced.
In that processes I lost the rubber that stick
to the panel of the volume. I was fine with that since my phone
in vibrate mode and I really don't use ring tone in my daily basis.
I tried to download Android 5.0 lollipop and flash it.
How did I get there? well since I did not have a volume button,
I downloaded an app that restarted my phone and got me into
fastboot mode without the key (I did got me where I wanted).
Then the problem was that in the middle of writing the .img
the freaking cheap bastard micro usb unplugged!!!
BAMM!! phone now is bricked, I cannot get into recovery/fastboot mode
since I cannot press the volume key and my phone is bricked.
I tried going through fastboot mode via my computer again,
but the computer doesn't recognize the device since it still
looping there forever at the google logo. I try installing USB
DRIVERS to see if I could do some "magic" haha. Got
error "This device cannot start ..." And still at the same problem.
I know I can get back to my recovery if order the part for the volume
key, I ordered the part to replace it, but trust me I was 3 weeks without
my phone and now this problem
Is there any way that I can get to fastboot mode to factory reset my phone
without volume key with a bricked forever looping a "google" logo ? :fingers-crossed: :fingers-crossed:
I appreciate any help.

Im not sure why your text is like this? But paraphrasing buddy comes a long way
Just hold the power button, until it dies, or just let it die in general since your volume button (You only need Vol down and Power) to power it off completely. Since your Volume keys are gone, the best solution is to wait for the replacement before doing so, unless you can get the contact keys to trigger the Volume button, you're in a loss atm. No OS or Volume keys means you can't trigger ADB commands or boot into fastboot. Just wait it out I guess?
hello,
after install some rom, my p9 lite get bootloop. I manage to enter fastboot but phone was locked, so to install twrp i unlocked it.
After unlock i can't enter fastboot.
Screen "your devices has been unlocked and can't be trusted" appears, vol up+- power, nothing happens phone vibe 2 times and back to screen "your devices...".
My bootloader is unlock, can i flash twrp without bootloader screen on phone ? My phone is connected to PC but no device detected. Maybe at linux i can do something more than windows ?
Maybe i need to go to fastboot some different way ? i try to push 3 button after fist vibe and 2nd. Nothing work for me :crying:
i tried to past b130 to sd card in dload, vol+- power, nothing not even update screen, same "your devices"....,

For fastbooting u need to use volume down and power in the same time and the phone needs to be connected to PC, and for entering to recovery u only need to press volume up and power key.

Disconnect the phone from PC. Make sure it's powered off. Plug in USB cable at the same time while holding volume down.

Don't work, after power on......why power on?
Disconnect from PC. Power of the phone.
Press and hold only vol down, with pressing vol down connect with PC. Device should be start on fastboot mode.

After power off
Press and hold only vol down, connect with pc.

i hold power button, if phone isn't connected to pc he is going off. Think is because battery is very low, led is blinking in red.
Then I hold vol down and connect usb cable, but how u can see on video phone weak up and go to booting.
I have hi suit last night as i mention fastboot works, but need to unlock phone. After that "your devices" screen came out and can't fastboot anymore
When i turning off phone with connected usb i can't turn phone off. After a second phone power on by his own.
If phone is disconnected longer than 5 min, then i push vol down and connect usb only red lightening shows up. I need to wait a while to phone start.

OK. When phone is off, if you connect with PC, phone should be start, but this is only for charging. May be, you don't have charge, so phone is not going to fastboot mode with vol down?
Now just connect the phone with PC for full charge.
You don't have any recovery? Custom or stock?
It can be happen?

When i start charge phone blinking red in led, after while phone vibe 1 time and go to booting now, but led don't stop blinking. I will try to charge it, but because of working screen, phone heat a lot i don't wanna burn it.
Before i made rollback and something gone very bad, emui update after 100 % phone don't boot up. Without usb cable i wasn't able to go recovery or fastboot. So i think i don't have any recovery i made backup of files with twrp but now i can't flash it.
after night without power, phone drain all of battery. Now i understood better what is going on. when i plugged usb cable, phone don't start bye it own, only red lighting flash for second .
I disconnect cable and connect it with vol down button how all of here wrote. Phone immediately weak up an go to "your device has been..".
It's look like after i unlock phone (bootloader) somehow i was able to corrupt bootloader files or even delete it. Some one can confirm that it is possible to crash bootloader ?

I have the same situation. I tried everything, Three button method, letting the battery run out completely, Vol+ and Power, Vol- and Power, connected to PC, not connected to PC. Every time I disconnect the charger, and reconnect it starts from 0. I read some other people here have the same problem. Send it to warranty and explain your rollback process unlocked the bootloader somehow (I mean the phone does do a lot of sh*ty sh*t, so this shouldn't seem very odd as well!!!) and hope that you get a repair/replacement and after that sell it on ebay hoping some stupid people like us in the first place will buy it and spend your money on a phone more reliable!
I managed to access the fastboot using the 3 button method in cold boot. Hold the Power key until the screen goes off and then release and hold down the Vol- key and immideately connect the usb cable to PC right before it vibrates or exactly when it vibrates (it's a matter of timing), and bingo you are in fastboot and you can flash system.img, recovery.img, cust.img, cache.img and boot.img from there, but this is not how I revived my phone. I used the 3 button method again when the phone was charged for like half an hour or so and the did the same cold boot trick and I could boot into the force upgrade environment (strangely this still didn't work whitout connecting the usb cable to PC), but it somehow didn't want to read the UPDATE.APP that I had in dload folder on my SD card and wanted to have it from my PC (I just felt it nad there was no indication of it ) so then I installed the DC Phoenix tool and payed 15 euros to be able to inject the complete UPDATE.APP to my bricked phone and the installation went well to 99% and failed, but I rebooted the phone and I could boot normally. Just to make sure I did a factory reset afterwards. Hope this helps.

Yes. I am actually writing this from my Huawei P9 Lite now. This phone is really a nightmare for modifying and customization. I'm not sure if I'm going to resell it or just wait a reasonable amount of time until some reviews from the next update come out and see if I might wanna take the risk and update my phone again.
Hoping someone can shed some light. Rushing to root phone again to send back warranty replacement, in my haste my laptop died mid flash and now can only boot in Fastboot and Crashdump Mode.
I am attempting to restore to factory via the MSM tool but cannot for the life of me enter EDL mode.
With phone powered off and pressing the vol up and down keys while plugging into the PC, it only enters Fastboot mode
I have tried to do it with phone off, rebooting from Crashdump mode, from fastboot and it seems that no combination allows me to do so.
I have also tried just vol up and vol down. App loaded at the flash screen, not loaded, etc.
Thanks in advance

What I did when I was in Crash Dump Mode was,
Press and Hold Power Off and Volume Up button and release when the screen goes off. Now your phone is switched off. Now to enter the EDL mode you need to press and hold volume up and volume down buttons at the same time...and then connect the mobile to pc while still holding the buttons. Done. MSM tool will detect your phone.
NOTE : Also keep the Device Manager window open on the PC while u connect the phone to pc and check if it shows up there.

It always seems to take me several tries to get it right. I think if I don't hit the vol +/- keys right at the exact time that's the problem. Just be patient and keep trying. The first time I did it, it took me what seemed forever. Thought maybe my phone was broken.

Hello Folks. So i have found myself in this situation as well. MY phone wont go off and keeps restarting to CrashDump Mode. As such can't seem to get into EDL mode inorder to flash. Any tips? I have tried all the above methods nothing seems to work. Is there a different key combination or a fastboot command i can use to achieve EDL? Help a brother i'm going nuts. Device IN2020

You just need to keep trying it. Make sure you hit vol+/- at the same time and hold for a few seconds, plug in the USB cable, then let off the vol keys. It's difficult to do and get right with two hands. Recently did it again as I wanted to upgrade to the 11 beta from a clean system. Seems like it took me forever to get it this time but eventually I did.
Use usb 2.0 port.
After using 2.0 instead of 3.0 and the phone connected stable for a while (after many tries)
able to finish the msm operation successful ..
But phone not booting .. getting black screen after 1+ logo
at this point I thought to clear cache but My phone is locked I cannot use any recovery .. I cannot even go into oneplu recovery LOL .. It seems like I am doomed
For me personally I could only get it to work on USB2.0 ports. On USB3.0 it just puts me back into fastboot mode or when it does go into EDL MSM tool just fails with a communication error immediately.
I kinda bricked mine as well messing around with GSI ROM's and flashing too hastily and to the wrong partition lol.
It has always worked for me with USB 2.0 port and non oneplus cable.
originable cable would not work for me on usb 3 or USB 2 port, but 3rd party cable start immediately with USB 2 port.
I've had the issue where EDL mode works..... for a few seconds, then the phone reboots.
Very frustrating!
The MSM Download Tool does spot the phone, but since the phone seems to reboot, I don't have enough time to do anything!
Any ideas why this is happening?

You need to already hit start on msmtool BEFORE plugging in phone
1- start MSM tool (prepare the settings and choose the right oos)
2-keep the cable connected to one end (I prefere to keep it connected from the phone side first)
3-keep holding volume up/down for 3-4 sec and connect the other end of the cable to your PC
4-your device will be connected directly stop holding volume up/down and in msm tool press start wait for ≈300 sec
5-now your device should work as it was before

This is a royal pita! I remember when it used to be fun....
Anyway, I've been trying every trick in the book, and then some, but shiznit just isn't going right! The holding of the up and down buttons would be easier if this was the pixel, but it is a tad hard to not mistakenly hit the power button on the other side.
The device manager shows the Qualcomm QDLoader and the msm Downloader is showing the infamous waiting for device... I've been at it for 8 straight hours and if there was a local OnePlus store that sold the international version of the OP8P, that's where I would be heading in a few hours.... It's really frustrating to say the least.
Anyway, when I'm in the bootloader, the device manager shows the Android phone, so I'm thinking that maybe I am in the edl mode when the Qualcomm port shows up, but like I said, the msm is waiting....
tried everything and it is constantly booting into bootloader. I even tried an adjusted fastboot script to boot into EDL but it still boots into bootloader. I have booted into EDL before on a OnePlus 7T, and I have tried multiple times by pressing the OnePlus 8 pro volume buttons at the same time, but always bootloader. Just to check, I tried doing it on my OP 7T again and it worked perfectly fine. Help????
I have had to flash stock 4 times because I land in crash dump mode and it has always been a tricky situation to get into edl.
What worked for me 100% of the time was following the steps in the youtube guide below.
From 2:30 onwards
Hope it helps
I had the same issues, but fixed once read comments as per above. Let me summarize what I did:
1. installed driver Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (I'm using Windows 10) - driver in a cab file should be unpacked using command expand (with proper switches) to preserve folders.
2. launched MSM DT and had it configured and then pressed Verify\Start, as EDL is available only for very short time - 2-3 secs with screen turned off.
3. as my phone was stuck in booting loop I was just keeping presses Vol+/- waiting for EDL to be entered, MDM will find the phone and start uploading data.
Just don't give up trying.

Hoping someone can shed some light. Rushing to root phone again to send back warranty replacement, in my haste my laptop died mid flash and now can only boot in Fastboot and Crashdump Mode.
I am attempting to restore to factory via the MSM tool but cannot for the life of me enter EDL mode.
With phone powered off and pressing the vol up and down keys while plugging into the PC, it only enters Fastboot mode
I have tried to do it with phone off, rebooting from Crashdump mode, from fastboot and it seems that no combination allows me to do so.
I have also tried just vol up and vol down. App loaded at the flash screen, not loaded, etc.
Thanks in advance

Try different ports. My usb 3 port would force it into fastboot but usb 2 was fine.
What to do if the device doesn't have any usb 2.0 port?
Hi!
I have a problem with a galaxy a40 device, I flashed a stock ROM with Odin, everything went fine, green lights, PASS and all, but now the device just won't go pass the SM logo anymore. When I turn on, logo appears 2-3 secs I get a warning of the unlocked BL then logo comes back and after a second the phone restarts itself and the same goes on forever ( well about several hours, and after that it just shuts off somehow ). I cannot enter recovery mode or download mode at all. I keep pressing the combinations Power + Vol Down, Power + Vol Up, All three and every combinations I have just found on the internet so far. Odin doesnt recognize the phone, which is not a surprise since it won't start up. I have tried with adb but waiting for device is all I get.
How is it even possible that I cannot enter download mode at all? There was no problem with the physical keys, and the power still works, I cannot test the Vol buttons tho.
Has anyone ever had a problem like this? How can I come back from this? Is there a way to flash a ROM without download mode or turned off phone?
Thanks for any help!!
The download mode for this model is different from previous Samsung's :
IIRC, with the phone off, you need to hold VolumeUp and VolumeDown, then plug in the USB cable connected to a computer (you may need to press Power to power up the phone, I can't recall properly).
From there, you should be able to restore a stock ROM with Odin.
Let us know if it helped !

Here the same problem, have a40 in loop and never get rocgnized for computer, tryed many different cables, and installed a booring large amount of drivers software and nothing...
you need to power off device completely. let battery drain if you can't shut down. press and keep holding volume down + plug in usb cable for Odin3 (I doubt both?)

Generic answers, repeated 800 times why really need to waste a post with that? and that not was the problem:
1- For no usb recognition, is this phone bad design, in the back tap where is the battery in the samsung logo more or less if you push with fingers and charge is because the design of baterry is so crap and your usb port goes off when the under tap cable moves or just get little out of conection. If you can get working after push, usb on phone will do too.
