[Q] Broken homebutton - Samsung Galaxy Mini

My galaxy mini has a broken home button so i can't get into download mode or cwm. I had a custom rom with softkeys so it was not a big problem but now it has suddenly started bootlooping :/ is there a way to put it into download mode without an usb jig?

there is a rom which contains an option to boot into download mode but I don't know what was the name of the rom

but i can't install a rom because i can't boot to recovery or download

google around for ADB (android debug bridge)

in terminal type
su
reboot recovery

I can't turn on the debugging because i can't even use the phone. I need to get the bootloop off is there a way to wipe cache and data and factory reset without the recovery? adb does not help because it can't find a bootlooping device...

HELP!! Bootloop!!!!

was trying out the app "Anim Mod" installed chose animation reboot..... now stuck in a bootloop. volume and power combo dosent work please please help!!
What?you mean you can't enter software upgrade mode?
nope i cant.... tried the known key combinations cant even get it to go into recovery or s/w update mode
tried pulling out the battery sim card and micro SD and then hold volume up and plug in the usb cable?
got it sorted.... the ONLY key combo that worked to get into recovery for me was Huexx method
-------------------------------------------------
WHAT TO DO IF GOT A BOOTLOOP
1.- Remove battery *edit** I didnt remove battery, I plugged out the usb instead**
2.- Power on your phone again, and once the 4 leds start flashing, repeatedly press a physical key (g-button or volume rocker) until your phone reboots and ir access to CWM
3.- Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache, then reflash the ROM again
4.- Reboot and wait

And if it doesn't work, you can connect your phone to your computer, start adb shell and type in 'reboot recovery'. Your phone will enter cwm and you can restore a backup, reflash a rom..
I use this method if I get a bootloop. (I'm developing a rom.) I think it's very helpful, because you don't must use smartflashtool.
cakebomb.
in some situation adb cannot connect the phone and you have to use the smartflash tool
Anim Mod bootloop
I have the same problem here! I got bootloop after using anim mod. I'm able to go to stock recovery. I had backup my file then did factory reset but problem still not solved. I had backup my framework-res.apk file but it's not on a flashable zip format.
i've tried using apk multi tool on trying to do and adb push but it's not working
what can I do next?
connect your phone to pc in s/w upgrade mode->pull out your battery, hold + and plug in the usb in phone..and after that, use smart flash tool to flash firmware(v20) with CWM included..and after firmware flash your phone will enter in CWM recovery, now from CWM you need to flash supersu from sd card..after flashing firmware and superuser, DO a data,cache,davlik cache wipe !..and just after this you can exit from CWM(reboot)
Here's a link to all tools that you need to repair your phone. You need to use smartflash tool, a V20 firmware with cwm( you can download it from here), and put the Superuser.zip to your sd card..and install USB driver if you haven't installed it yet
I use this method every time when my phone is stuck on bootloop or if I've flashed a ROM that doesn't have root..or other situations.. This method brings you to a rooted gingerbread with CWM(this is all what you need, because from here you can do what you want..for example flashing which ROM you like )
!!! You can use this method anytime...doesn't matter which ROM you have or if your phone is rooted or not. After using this method your phone will be fully rooted, will have CWM recovery and android 2.3 gingerbread !!!

[Q] What to do, keeps rebooting?

When phone switched off:
Home Button + Power - open recovery
Wipe Data and Cache, reboot
You could try Recovery mode and wipe.

Your might want to try PWR + HOME to get into Recovery Mode screen, then Wipe Data (Factory Reset), when done remove battery, wait 10 sec., then insert battery and boot normally... has worked for me on the orphaned S5830D SGAce w/ DTLKI4 f/w. BUT, be aware, all user settings and installed apps are vaporized !!! Stuff on /SDCARD is safe.
Cheers,
help please

One package? Aren't you supposed to use the one with the 5 different files and not just one? To make a completely clean stock rom install, I mean. If that's what you want.
I think he(or she) want a stock rom only. You need to do a full wipe after flash with odin. Maybe touch recovery helps you, but i cant find any . You can go to download mode by "adb reboot download" , i think it cant success without wipe.
Or maybe try to flash a rom with 5 files as SuperAce609 said.
No. You can't flash 2.3.6 directly.
You need to flash 2.3.3 first , then 2.3.4 and last 2.3.6 using Odin.

@OP
just go to recovery > factory reset(wipe data)
and then reboot......Ur done
so simple.....
lol. u guys didnt even try to understand what his problem in the first place. atleast read the first post properly before giving suggestions.
the poor guy had his vol up and down button broke, and u suggest him to wipe data in recovery.
thing is his vol up and downn button doesnt work! so how can he navigate in recovery? lol
btw op, u said that u flashed onepackagee file via odin. so how did u manage to go into download mode in the first place when your vol down button is busted?
if u managed to go into download mode again, this time flash the full package instead.

The phone keeps rebooting on startup. The phone can go in download mode but can't go in recovery mode.
Do you know any good link to download multi file package? I can't seem to find it anywhere

My phone was running 2.2.1 Froyo. I tried to upgrade it to 2.3.6 using process mentioned here. http://androidadvices.com/update-gal...wktm-firmware/
The Odin completed successfully and restarted the phone. But the phone was running spanish language. I was getting an alert after every 3-4 seconds. But i could not read it as it was spanish. I restarted the phone and it went in boot loop. The phone keeps rebooting every 2 seconds.
I can't get into recovery mode but I can get to download mode.
I have tried flashing many ROMs from sammobile.com but none of them is working.

after flashing stock rom using odin when device restarts remove usb jig and press home and volume plus to go to recovery mode.. then clear cache and dalvik cache .. tis should solve ur problem. tricky part is after completion of odin flash u have to quickly go to recovery using volume and home button once the flash is complete so that when device restarts u can go to recovery direct.

wipe data/factory reset changes doesn't apply (Note N7000ZSLO2 Model:SHV-E160S)

*NEED HELP PLS*
1-My phone doesn't keep time/date/language when I reboot
2-The language goes back to French when I reboot
3-All my apps show the stop error when i make any setting change after reboot
4-Any app that I install after reboot will disappear on the next reboot, except the SU app I installed as zip from sdcard in CWM-based recovery window
5-The phone make sound when I connect to pc but doesn't to ask to chose connection mode, so pc doesn't detect it even though I have USB Debug enabled
6-I did the wipe data/factory reset several times but there's no change when i switch ON the phone even though the wipe data/factory reset was successful.
7-The only button combination that works is the one to go to Download Mode (Volume Down + Home + Power )
8-I can only go to Recovery Mode when I try to factory reset in the phone settings. The phone will restart and take me to Recovery Mode
-Odin is unable to detect the phone.
I just think is the internal storage that is corrupted or something but i can't tell for sure. So please i need ur help on how to fix this problem or if there is any app that i can install as zip from sdcard in CWM that can scan or format or fix this problem

You flashed the firmware on the wrong CPU, our N7000 runs Exynos but yours runs Qualcomm. Go find the correct firmware for your phone.
