[Q] How to Recover my phone ?

Yesterday I have purchased used Samsung Galaxy S (not S2) from my friend which got locked.Too many pattern attempts! is what the message I'm getting. I was not able to access any thing, Except incoming calls.
Keep XDA forum in mind I have purchased it blindly, but after reading few threads in here I cant find any solution to unlock this.
So someone please help to get out of this, Provide me the solutions
Please remember
* I have never seen it Rom Version and Kernal Version
* Its not configured with gmail account. How ever i have tried few tricks to configure gmail account by making calls to locked phone. But failed.
* I have tried all different combination of keys to boot to recovery mode and FAILED !
So can some one let me know how do I flash my phone in this case !
Thanks in advance

Mhm... but as his recovery mode access is blocked, I doubt if he will be able to access the download mode as well...
@OP: if you will be able to go to download mode - apply the Bhuvan's advice. If not - last resort - buy jig on eBay...

Spamtrash I d think that the op knows the correct way to access recovery. And why he wont be able to access recovery, pattern lock is not related to recovery. Pls guide him to acces recovery and download mode, I am busy sorry.

Recovery = Volume Up + Home + Power
Download = Volume Down + Home + Power
If your phone is off, hold down those buttons as you would the power button to boot the phone into the appropriate mode. If your phone is on, hold down those buttons for ~10 seconds to reboot your phone into that mode (likewise, holding down just the power button for ~10 seconds will reboot the phone while it's running).
Regardless of whether or not the phone is locked (pattern, pin, anything), you should be able to access these modes. If you can get your phone into download mode, you can flash whatever ROM you want with Odin, stock or custom—and this will replace the entire firmware, which will reset the lock. However, I would not recommend flashing a ROM if you cannot get your phone into download mode, or you risk bricking your device.

If ur recovery is working then their is wipe data/ factory reset option in samsung's recivery too. Try that.

Guys, thanks so much for your time ! I have tried all most every method you guys suggested me. but no good luck !
I know a dude who can do this soft of issues, but not for free (LOL)
First he told that the pattern can be unlocked. When I reached him to get it done. he told that it is going to take long time and its much better to flash new rom 2.3.4 where all my data will be gone. I agreed and what he did is
My phone was not going to download mode with the 3buttons shortcuts as upichie told. he connected a USB pin to my phone and used 3 button shortcuts to go into download mode. from download mode he flashed my phone to latest version 2.3.4.
This is how my issue ended ! you know what's the funny thing in this ? he download every thing from XDA !! HE HE !! LOL !!
Thanks again for all who ever replied and tried to solve my issue !

I'm glad you got this issue resolved!
For future reference, it sounds like he used a USB JIG to get the phone into download mode, in case you need to find information about that on a later date.
Have fun with your phone!

just try recovery

Reboot Loop

Heys guys ive got a problem with my S5830i, i wanted to flash AceCream v1 for the second time but at some point i failed, (i flashed it succesfully first time)

I can't go to recovery mode, and dunno what Download mode is
is it battery with loading circle on it?

download mode: vol up + vol down + power button
recovery mode: vol up + power + menu.
in order to connect your phone and use odin you should go to download mode.

Yes i can, and it didnt reboot, so it means my phone isn't hard bricked

yes maybe just a soft one. You do know how to use Odin, right? You can flash a stock firmware, there's one thread who has stock firmware just follow the instructions from there. try this. Hope you fix your ace in no time :good:

Try installing the Samsung drivers yourself, I think there is one in Sammobile.com. Not sure though, or just try visiting samsung's website and download the drivers.

Just Google for Samsung mobile usb driver, i have just downloaded it few hours ago.

Are you sure you can't open recovery mode (VOL UP + HOME + POWER) ? If no, then try opening download mode (VOL UP + VOL DOWN + POWER), if you just see blach screen (The screen is on but blank) then press VOL UP and connect it to PC you should see COM in Odin, flash a FW and your phone will be fine.

Yes
Sometimes Download Mode is working but does not show up
Its just blank screen
But it would work
Download any firmware and flash with latest Odin 3.07

HELP! Hard brick! (s5570)

Hi! I have a galaxy mini s5570. When i press the power button the screen don't turns on; the download mode and recovery mode don't start. If I get the phone in the ramdump mode (Vol Up+Home+Power) or in emergency dload mode (Vol Up+Vol Down+Home+Power) the screen don't turn on but odin recognizes the phone. I tried to flash any firmware but odin stops at "setup connection ..."
Can anyone give me a help? (Sorry for my language!)

hey !
Remove the battery,Press the download key combination,while keeping the three buttons pressed insert the battery,and you are in download mode ! Then flash your firmware and go !

I had already tried but the phone don't enter in the download mode and odin don't recognizes it
Odin recognizes the phone in ramdump mode and emergency dload mode only!

S10e bootloop and no acces to recovery and Download mode... plzz help ! :'(

hi all. i just install the Beta of ONEUI 2 and android 10 on my S10e, (using the update.zip with adb in recevery) and now my S10e is "bootlooping" with no acces to recovery and download mode... impossible for me at the moment to reflash a clean ROM with odin... can you help? or my phone is definitivly DEAD??? :/ thx you all...

Maybe you tell the situation in the correct thread, where you load the firmware?
There more dudes, who flashed the rom and known the bug (soft brick?).
I use the official beta of the android 10 firmware & can't directly support.
Good luck.

hi, i load the Firmware from this link
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s10-plus/how-to/galaxy-s10-sm-g975f-official-oneui2-10-t3980879
yes it's a soft brick, the phone boot to the Samsung logo, with the little vibration, and reboot again and again. recovery and download buttons manipulations not work..

To enter download mode, put usb cable into your phone, press and hold vol down button without bixby button, make sure your screen comes to black(total shut down if its on bootloop), then put the usb cable into your pc. It should detect your phone

Hi,the only thing you can do is reflash with odin.
It is because you had unlocked bootloader.
When you have unlocked bl and flash Q it will bootloop.

yesterday I had the same problem (update beta Q with BL unlock). I couldn't open either downloading mod or recovery. Bootloop. I left the phone "resting" overnight and tried again in the morning. Hold Volume- and Bixby together and then connect the PC cable. download mod opened(possibly a coincidence). Odin worked.

try letting the phone die then when bootloop stops inset cable and do the download mode combo, failing that when the device is looping does it connect sucsessfully to your computer because i had a similar experiance, at the samsung logo screen although display was looping adb commands did acually work, i then entered adb reboot download in cmd prompt and the download screen appeard and was odin compatible for a complete reflash of the firmware with magisk patched AP file
i hope this helps !! best of luck my friend

Hello,
I've the same problem. To fix it :
- Go to recovery mode (when your phone is shutdown, press Bixby+Vol Up + Power and realase all after Samsung's Logo)
- Wipe Cache
- Wipe System
- Reboot System

I have the same problem on my Samsung Galaxy A7 2018. It keeps showing every 5 seconds the logo in an infinite bootloop and i cannot enter recovery or download mode. Any help?

sorry, i don't know if it's been fixed but if have read the thread you will noticed that there isn't a quick fix until you wait till the device goes off, then either your boot into recovery mode (wipe, cache, reset and reboot) or download mode (flash stock rom with odin).

This is why I have hate not being take the battery out of a device. Atleast the S10 doesn't seem likes it's too hard, if it were me I probably just remove the back cover and pop the battery out rather than wait for the battery to die. The back cover seems to just snap off and on, almost like they could have just made it removable in the first place, but then of course too many people would just buy new batteries when they wear out rather than a new phone. Gotta love planned obsolescence.
