I experienced power button problem, after flashing latest build (4.4.2 on note n7000) my phone rebooted and and once it got back in system I couldnt turn off screen from power button or shut down phone, so i tried to remove battery and start again. But it is the same. So i didnt know what to do, i installed reboot recovery app to try to flash earlier build and from philz kernel (touch based) flashed raw4 kernel and now in recovery my power button stilll dont work, I can not flash anything I cant reboot in sistem . What to do?
p.s. I tried removing a battery and as soon as i inserted it the phone boots in recovery automaticly (like the power buttton is pressed all the time ?), and still power button wont work
I can go into download mode with Volume up and home button (and again like power button is all the time presed but i am not pressing it) and i could go to download mode and i have odin 1.85 on my computer and i could flash raw5 kernel or asylum kernel just to boot in system and use OS, but RAW5 iz ZIP extension like ASYlum,( i guess i need tar file extensions for odin?) so i dont know what to do via odin? What do you think? And thank you so much.. for you time reading this.

Okay so I was testing out the Molecule ROM along with SetiroN's i9000 Kernel. I installed the backlight notification app on the kernel's page and went to reboot. After the reboot I can no longer use the power button while in recovery mode and when I try to reflash back to stock with Odin I get a FAIL message while its checking the file system. Is it bricked or does someone know a way to fix this?
Are you able to get back into download mode successfully?
This happened to me with i9000 kernels. You should be able to flash back to stock no problem.
remove battery & sim and disconnect phone,
open odin,
put battery in and hold Vol down,
plug in USB,
Flash
Should work for you.
Hi, I have a galaxy mini with cm9 rom by Thewisp. I tried to install an update, but when I turn on the phone with the power and menu button, I don't succeed to access to cmw. The phone turn on normally, but I want to access to cmw. :crying: Can you solve me this problem??
It's a problem with this previous build.. TheWhisp has fixed it already but if you can't turn on your phone that means your recovery is broken.. Use Odin to flash the recovery and the phone will turn on.. but do flash the latest build.. the problem is fixed in that..
or else you are pressing menu instead pressing home + power
its CWM no CMW..Clock Work Mod..nvm well yea Just reflash via odin

Long story short, I have the I8190L version of the phone, currently on stock ROM. I got the phone a few weeks ago and I have rooted it right away, there were no problems while rooting, I used the Galaxy S3 mini toolkit and used the "Flash Insecure Boot Image and Root device" option, with SuperSU 1.25. Fast forward to right now, I want to install CyanogenMod, so I went and tried to boot my phone into Download Mode, to try and flash CWM recovery in order to install the Cyanogen ROM, but I simply can't start download mode, when connected to the USB pressing the Vol up + menu + power sequence, the phone just starts normally (The OS will load completely). adb reboot download doesn't work too, vol up + vol down + power and plugging in the usb cable doesn't work.. I did several hard resets and I removed root too, noone of those worked. I don't know if that is relevant, but I installed a patched google play (4.1.10 Chelpus version), I could not find a way to remove that. I can't reroot too because I would need to start my phone in download mode. Anyone knows what is happening?

are you connecting your phone to PC before you go to download-mode???
try this: download-mode (Vol up + Menu + Power) and now connect your device with your computer!
flash CWM or whatever you want...
HTH

That did not work, when it is about to go to download mode it seems that it fails and either boots the OS or just turns off (depends on how much I hold the buttons), and since adb reboot download doesn't work I think something got corrupted (adb finds the device and reboots it, but it just starts up normally).
I'm not sure why, but noone of the articles I read mentioned the actual CORRECT download mode sequence, which is: Volume Down + Home + Power buttons, and then click on Volume Up, it is working now. Thanks.

Well if you looked at the screen you would know what to press after vol down+home+power
oh my God,
you are all right.
i mixed up step one and two of Download-Mode - sorry
first you have to push Vol Down + Menu + Power (few seconds)
start odin as admin
second you connect your device to PC
third you push Vol Up
fourth you flash via Odin.
I often flash ROMs via Odin and / or use CWM so that works automatically ....

Hi guys, so i got a new Mini2, and... messed with it, pulled a firmware version from a dif zone by mistake... after i had cwm jena and clockworkz working, installed that asian firmware, and never got the phone to work again, tried several stock rom installs (17 and counting, with/without jena firmware download also), it just keeps doing the boot loop, and i can't access the Recovery menu (vol +/- home power buttons at start).
I've been reading all the meaningful threads here, tried doing button combination with battery, without and nothing seems to work.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
Take it to samsung service senter if u got warranty and if isnt try to use another mini 2 battery but I think it may not work and try to press all butoms at same time for 2min and if nothing work buy or make a JTag
Sent from my GT-S6500D using xda app-developers app
go to download mode and don't accept terms (up volume) and quick hold recovery combination when it will start to reboot (ofc when samsung logo will appear don't hold keys). Try few times and it will work, if not 1st then another time. Do factory restet, reboot phone and take off battery. Turn on in download mode and install MD1 XEO stock and do again factory reset using trick from above (go to download mode and don't accept terms (up volume) and quick hold recovery combination when it will start to reboot.)
Worked...

You sir... you are my new hero! key trick is pressing the recovery combination quick before logo appears and ... guess what i was holding the damn buttons so hard i was thinking they'd eventually lose pressure
My mini2 is alive :angel:
I'm glad to help you cheers
I have similar problem:
1. no recovery mode, only download mode
2. no matter what stock firmware I flash using odin I get bootloop
I tried the trick to go download mode > reject codition and then press the recovery mode combination but did not work
I wonder if there is a Cyanogen firmware in tar.md5 format so I can flash with odin ?

Did flash a incompatible kernel? Try flashing stock kernel, recovery adn ROM.
Hello all,
I have an s3 mini which I am unable to boot into CWM recovery. I have tried countless times and flashed cwm twice but it my phone would not boot to it. Whenever I hold down the Volume up + Home + Power buttons it just boots normally. But I am able to get it into download/odin mode so what I need is a sort of script or file that I can flash through odin to force my phone to boot into recovery mode.
