How can i remove the battery to restart??

Hello,
i tried to update my firmware. So i downloadet from samfirmware.com the new firmware and the odin-tool. Then i followed the steps are shown here: samfirmware.com/P1000%20how%20to%20flash.pdf
not the steps are shown in the video. But now i reached step "7" and it says i should remove the battery to restart. HOW CAN I DO THIS?
At this time, my galaxy tab restarted and i there is the whole time the start screen which says "Galaxy Tab .............. Samsung".
Can i switch the Tab manually off to reach the Download Mode again?
Thx a lot

press and keep pressing power button and vol down --> download mode
press and keep pressing power button --> restart tab

You cam press power button for few seconds to power down. If you need to start 'download' mode, once you powered down device, press three button at same time, down+exit+power, it will appear download mode on screen.

Altho it does not give instructions for replacing the battery...
So looks like US versions can't be replaced... at least by us.

Beware of fw's from samfirmaware. They have locked bootloaders and youll permanently lock up ur device from installing custom roms and root.

This isn't entirely accurate... As a method/exploit has been created to unlock the bootloaders, and I'm fairly certain it works for any firmware with a locked bootloader... I could be wrong there too though.

my galaxy tap now can't get into download mod or recovery. How should i do?

Try TO charge int through the wall charger foto atto least 4 hours then boot download volume down and power toghether tor few secs... redo operation or installing fw

You have to press the power button for a while (min 5 sec) after this you have to load the tab for 4h.........
Whrn its done press thr volume DOWN button and the power button for a second.now you are in the download mode and you can flash the gb stock rom and the kernel from team.overcome.net.with this you have a really god base for the ics rom.............(if you want it..... )

CLOSED - Got a new phone :(

Got a new phone

This isn't really great advice, but, if the bootloader is toast, there is a good chance you can get it fixed under warranty as Samsung won't be able to tell what you had on it.
You could try making the jig as the parts are cheap, but not much chance if your cappy is unresponsive.
There is also the aftermarket jtag option. It's expensive, but should work. You may be able to find someone with it. Seeing as your reward offer is half the price of one, it probably wouldn't be out of line as far as somebody offering that service.

I am assuming you have already done this and just forgot to mention it but try pulling sd card and sim for a few. Pulling only the battery does not always work for me

did you get any error from ODIN while flashing? especially about sbl.bin?

Im having the same problem... totally black screen, no power...i have flashed million roms also and have always been able to restore from a soft brick..but this time it wont even boot to get into download mode..ive tried every single method to get into download mode with no luck..
att is going to send me a warrenty replacement so ..hopefully that goes well.. but ill continue messing with it and if i get a fix ill def post it for ya

open Odin,,remove battery ,wait 1 minute, put battery back in, press and hold both volume buttons, insert usb. Hope that helps. this is what i did when I black screened mine.

Where are you located?
There was one time I really screwed the pooch with Odin and my phone ended up with a black screen & unresponsive. The JIG did manage to pull me out of it, I'm very certain the "your mileage may vary" line is applicable here.

I heard that even if the screen is black if you see it in odin you can use it. I would use odin one click. Good luck.

Try this. Unplug and remove battery. Plug in the usb open odin3 jh6 one click downloader. Press and hold volume up/down and power. Insert battery and release only the power button at the same time and keep holding volume up/down buttons. Let drivers insall if they aren't on your computer. Press download.

Sorry I feel stupid. Dodnt read the 2nd thing. This should work. Is your battery fully charged? And try adb if your computer can see it at all. And use clockwordmod next time so much easier and safer. But if everything fails att covers our.phone for a year. I know cause I bricked.it and tried exchanging it.

I tried ADB. I am going to try a JIG today.

I've flashed ROMs a hundred and a half times and been fine. Gotten myself out of a million soft-bricks. But, this time I think I'm screwed.
My screen and phone is totally powered-off black after I tried to flash I9000UGJK4.tar as PDA in Odin on my device.
I've tried:
1.) Holding vol buttons and plugging in USB
2.) Taking out battery, plugging in, holding volume buttons and power button, putting battery in while letting go of power button.
Nothing responds. Is the JIG going to work in this situation or is this a hard-brick? I read the JIG thread and he said if your screen is black it won't work so I'm just wondering.

well That is one of the reason why we need to know what happens when your phone is plugged in via USB ...
Here is my advice : unless you are experienced with the Jig ( you ve restored your phone at least once using it already ) I say try again and again
For example : these resistor sometimes have 5% variation so for me the 301k wasnt working had to put it at 300 otherwise it wouldnt work ..
would also like top point out the jig does trigger soemtign in your phone so again even if nothing shows up on the screen try to flash anyways ...
BTW you shoudl remove the bounty and just offer it once you have beenhelped , I doubt anyone here is in it for the money (except me of course ) j/k

For dead screen, try this. It sounds like voodoo but it got me going.
Remove the battery.
Open Odin.
Connect via USB
Plug the battery in.
Hold down POWER and VOLUP until you get RED text on the screen. This will look bad, but is in fact a good thing. This can take 20-30 seconds.
Once the red text is up, hold down BOTH VOL buttons and POWER. Again this part will seem to take too long, but the red text will go black after a bit.
When the red text goes black, let go of POWER but continue to hold down both VOL.
Welcome to download mode.

[Q] Bricked my Tab...please help!

Hello
I was in the process of updating the firmware of my 'brand new' tab, when for some reason, the PC crashed and it all hung. The tab went all blank and now Odin doesnt detect the tab either. What do I do? How can I get the tab back into the mode that Odin can detect? Please help!

1. Did you put the Tab in 'Download Mode' using the Power & Vol Down buttons first?
2. Did you first terminate Kies from your PC's System Tray before running Odin?

1. Yes. After selecting the files in Odin, I did put the tab in download mode using the Power & Vol down button & Home button. That doesnt work any more. Neither does the Power + Vol up button
2. I didnt terminate Kies before running Odin. I didnt know I was supposed to do that.

If you did not terminate Kies first then that is 100% the problem.
Try it ....

Thanks for that info..but how do I get the Tab to get into download mode now? It doesnt seem to respond to anything I do! It really fits into the description of a brick now!

Some machine's also require a third button (as in on the Galaxy S) by using the Back button as well.

The tab doesnt have any other hardware buttons..just the power button and the volume control. All other buttons are sensors (like the galaxy S)...
By the way..i really appreciate your help!

No problem but I do have to shoot out for about an hour....
Re the 'Back button'. Yes, I know it's not a hardware button but just as on the Galaxy S it needs the back button to complete the Recovery/Download modes.
The Tab has been reported in some countries to also want the same.
What country are you using and I should be able to tell you if you need this third button or not.
If you can not get into Recovery/Download mode and the electric mains switch on didn't work either then yes, you really do have a problem.
Again, let me know the country specific you are using the machine on as if you end up having to send the Tab to a service centre you may find the Tab is no longer under Warranty.
Samsung got wise to the rooting as it was causing all manner of problems with returned units.
In the end they issued a newsletter to all service centres.
You can read that newsletter here ~ Samsung Newsletter to Service Centre's ~ Rooting Voids Warranty

Oops. Getting a little worried now....
I bought the tab from Dubai. Thats the reason I wanted to update the firmware. It has a lot of apps that I am not really interested in.

If you can't get into recovery or download mode you are stuffed.
I would try contacting your nearest service centre and see what they have to say.

Thanks for your help. I will keep trying....

I just described the restore button combo procedure here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9853737&postcount=12
For download mode do the same, but instead of volume up use volume down... That's it.
EDIT: saw you did that before. Sorry! Can you get into restore mode?

Let me summarize what I have done till now..
1. Plugged the tab to power via socket
2. Tried Home + Vol Up + power button - no response ..screen is black
3. Tried Home + Vol down + power button - no response..screen is black..
in both the cases I kept the buttons pressed in for minimum 30 secs..
I am NOT aware of a 'restore mode' ..could you please xplain?

That would be the mode you would have entered when step 3 would have succeeded. I think your Tab is really bricked. The scenario described is typical a scenario that can result in a brick. All I can do is show some compassion Sorry.

This is not good..not good at all!
Thanks for your help anyway...

Just got back.....
As I mentioned previously your only option now is to contact the nearest Samsung Service Centre and explain to them you tried to carry out a firmware update but the phone is no non-operative.
See what they say about it.... If you are in luck and they can't see you have tampered with the device then it should be covered under warranty.
When I contacted them here in the UK they told me if I brought my Galaxy S in they would fix it there and then... I opted out though as I could not get over to see them. I was fortunate in that the Recovery and Download modes were still working. Your case however is different, in that with out these two modes it is impossible to get the Tab activated.
I know it's not good news but honestly, providing you can get down to a centre they should be able to sort you out.

Yep, just done the same to mine also..totally dead, trying to flash JMA !
Take it back to the store you got it from and plead total ignorance, that's what I am going to do...

Thats precisely what I did...lets see if they can help...

My tab is back! They were able to revive my tab. Now to try again...

Samsung Galaxy S3 gt - i9305 stuck in downloading mode

Hey guys!
I'm using a rooted Samsung Galaxy S3 gt - i9305.
When I tried to open the hard reset menu by pressing the volume up + power + home button it went into the download mode and got completely stuck over there. The phone has no charge left. When I try to charge, it automatically boots up and again shows the "Downloading do not turn off target" but it doesn't get charged. If I press and hold the power button the screen goes black for sometime and then again it's in the Downloading mode. No matter whatever key combinations I use, this is what happens. Please suggest me some ways to fix this. I don't have a PC, so it would be great if you suggest me how to get my phone back without using a PC. But I do have another working phone.
Please guys help me.
Thank you.

it seems like you have something wrong with the keys circuits, you need to make a hardware check on that phone.
the volume down key and home key must be stuck(like always pressed).

No they're not stuck. I'm able to press and hold them. The phone actually responds to this, first the screen goes black and after awhile again the download mode is on.:crying:

Is my note 9 bricked?

Hello everybody,
First of all, please forgive my time to time poor english. I tried to fill in my presentation and hope it's ok.
I also want to thanks all the developpers that make a great job to optimise and/or improve stock roms and to help people like me that are not so good in developping.
Let me explain my problem :
I've just bought the Samsung note 9 SM-N960F/DS I was dreaming of.
when I put my sim card inside (a french one) he went on a firmware update, and my phone changed for a french CSC (XEF). Thus, I losed some functions I like, such as SpO2 measure in Samsung Health (I know, it's not so important but...). I couldn't also force the sound in earplugs when phone whas ringing, even by using "Soundabout apk" that was working with my note 4....
I don't know why Samsung changes the available functions regarding the country as we pay the same price for in fact a bunch of functions !!!
I tried to come back to the initial CSC, by flashing an official rom, and following a tutorial on XDA site explaining how to do without rooting, using combination files.
But I certainly made an error as my phone has restarted in a curious mode named "kernel panic upload mode" that I cannot escape. It's impossible to go back to download mode, even with combo like vol down + start button, or other combinations of buttons.
This phone wasn't rooted and i'm afraid now as I don't know how to flash a working rom on it. Whem I use Odin, the flashin fails at beginnig (at setup connection step).
Does somebody have an idea or a solution to fix this phone?
I join some picture of the current state.
Thanks for your answers

Hello Enzyne,

I tried Vol up + Bixby + start, vol down + bixby + start, vol up + start, vol down + start, vol up + vol down + start, but nothing works.
I can't go back to recovery mode nor to download mode...
Odin says "added" but can't setup connection...

Have you flashed with this PC before using Odin? Can you possibly try another PC? Maybe different USB cables just to eliminate possibilities.

It could be that the drivers are no good. It is also possible that you may need a warranty exchange. I'm not aware of any other boot-loader level recovery process besides odin. Maybe even try another version of odin that is known to work with our note 9.

The Kernel Panic Upload Mode doesn't prevent the phone from booting to Recovery.
1. Make sure your phone is completely powered off.
2. Press and hold the Bixby button and the Volume up button.
3. Press and hold the Power button. At this point you should be holding down three buttons. Don't let these go until you see the Recovery screen pop up.
That's really all there is to it. If you have a case that goes over your buttons it's possible you aren't pressing down hard enough for one or more of the buttons to register.

Not to nit-pick,but,when the phone is fully powered down,the simultaneous 3-button push can be released as soon as you see the Note 9 splash screen & the recovery screen should pop-up within a few seconds.
Only reason I mention it is possibly the OP is experiencing issues by holding one or more of the buttons in too long,(just spit-ballin' here on this point)............

Hi Koliosis, and thanks for your help.
In fact, I even cannot power down the phone !!!
The only thing he does except showing kernel panic is to quickly flash on samsung splash screen when I push together vol down and power button, before to go back on panic kernel screen:crying:
No splash screen with bixby + vol up + power buttons combo...
The problem came after a failed flash with combined files (the good ones for my phone, I verified...)
Is there another way to reinitialise the phone except via Odin or Smart switch?

You got me there, I haven't used ODIN since the Note 5 days, LOL. (FWIW, I boot to recovery for cache wipe, otherwise, that's as deep as I've gotten into a Samsung device for quite some time).

I cross all I can !!!:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

To get the Note 9 into download mode, do the following:
Turn the device off. Hold the volume down and Bixby button together and then plug in your USB cable that is attached to your PC. Your phone should go into download mode.
As this requires the phone to be off, you may get lucky once the battery runs out of charge.
Good luck

I've never had an issue with holding the buttons too long, but I have had an issue with not holding them long enough. I let go of the buttons as soon as the Recovery screen comes up and I haven't once had an issue with that. I think he'd have to hold the buttons for several seconds past the Recovery screen booting up before this caused an issue.

Hi Koliosis, and thanks for your help.
In fact, I even cannot power down the phone !!!
The only thing he does except showing kernel panic is to quickly flash on samsung splash screen when I push together vol down and power button, before to go back on panic kernel screen:crying:
No splash screen with bixby + vol up + power buttons combo...
The problem came after a failed flash with combined files (the good ones for my phone, I verified...)
Is there another way to reinitialise the phone except via Odin or Smart switch?

Okay, now we're on the same page. You have to be FAST with this.
1. Plug in a charging cable. This will give you the LED charging indicator on your phone.
2. Hold Power+Bixby until the charging indicator turns off. Once the charging indicator turns off you have to be VERY quick with step 3.
3. Press and hold Power+Bixby+Volume Up until you see the Recovery screen.
I was stuck in a bootloop after installing a Magisk module, and this happened to me as well. Every time I would power the phone down it wouldn't stay powered down. I had to be very fast to get into Recovery. It took me a couple of tries to press and hold the buttons quickly enough. That was partially because the case on my phone made pressing the buttons a bit more difficult.

To get the Note 9 into download mode, do the following:
Turn the device off. Hold the volume down and Bixby button together and then plug in your USB cable that is attached to your PC. Your phone should go into download mode.
As this requires the phone to be off, you may get lucky once the battery runs out of charge.
Good luck

Thanks to you both
Doesn't work as well :crying:
Is there another way to force connection with the PC in order to flash a rom again? Another "magic" application like odin but more powerfull?

The only thing that im aware of is very legacy like QPST. Im not sure if QPST is able to handle the newer phones tho. You can definitely ruin your phone with it too.

Hi again Enzyme
I looked on Google for QPST. But it seems it's only for Qualcom powered phones... mine is Exynos powered. ..
