My S3 mini GT-I8190, Android 4.1.2 might be broken. It felt into water. After three days of drying it I could restart it again. Here is the problem : When I shutdown the cell phone and try to switch it on it always runs into the android recovery mode. When I select reboot then it boots again into the android recovery mode. When I take off the battery and put the battery back and plug in via USB the power supply or do re chargung via PC then when I swith on the cell phone it starts normally. I re charged completly the battery. But no change in the behaviour. I tried to reset to factory mode via the android recovery mode. But the same behaviour. Any ideas ?

Whenever I plug the USB on my Vibrant, it reboot instantly and goes trough a loop showing a picture of a battery and some round "waiting" thing.
Only way I can keep it from doing so is when I go in download mode... :S
So far, I've rooted the thing, applied a lagfix (anyway to remove this BTW?) from http://project-voodoo.org/, and since I got this, I tryed hard reboot and clear user/all data from recovery console. Is this an hardware issue?
Thanks!
Hello,
My home button on galaxy s i9000 was out of order. Then i could not use three button modes.
I entered the phone to recovery mode using sdk but now i can not go out of recovery mode. The power button does nothing in recovery mode 3e . Then i can not choose the reboot phone option from menue.
I tried removing the battery for 20 minutes...also tried removing battery and pushing both volume up and down kies together and inserting battery but these methodes didn't work.
I can not use adb anymore as it can not recognize the device. Also odin can not recognize the phone...
What else could i do to get out of the recovery mode. I had official jpjf rom.
Any advice appreciated
My home button on galaxy s i9000 was out of order. Then i could not use three button modes. If its not working then you need the 3 button download recovery jig from the front page .

Thanks alot for the advice. Then you mean i should make a jig cable.? As i'm not sure how to make the cable ,is there any other way to flash....?
any more idea?
you can buy these 'JIGs' off eBay for peanuts.

alternate method
This method worked for me without any cable . Try it. You should at least see samsung logo on startup, wherein phone is stuck at recovery. And you should also have legitimate OS if you skip the recovery loop.
So, the phone also has a charging mode apart from all the modes. Take out the battery and make it completely off. Now, connect charging cable(micro-usb) to the phone in off position(I connected to PC). The phone will go to charging mode and wait until you see a progress bar and a green battery logo. Either press power button now to go to normal mode or remove cable and press power button.
After this, I went to download mode from OS and flashed correct image. But, your need may vary.
i got stock too in recovery mode . i rebooted through adb.thank God my phone reboots out of recovery mode
Hey! I have a major issue
Today I decided that I am going to change my ROM from darky's to CM9.All went well until I typed the pin of my SIM and just before I was on mobile's desktop CM9 told me I have to reset.I did and got into boot-loop.
Turned on my Odin to get stock rom on and try everything again , went to download mode but after a few seconds of pressing start Odin wrote FAIL. Since then my phone is dead,can't get into download mode,can't turn it on,doesn't charge. I only hear the 'bleep' sound (the sound when the usb has succesfully been plugged in) when I hold vol+ and vol- and plug usb at the same time but thats it.
What can I do? :crying:
Thank you for you help
Try a usb jig.
Before buying a JIG, try this:
1. remove battery
2. connect phone to computer via usb (without battery)
3. then press 3-button combo for download mode
4. while pressing these 3 buttons (phone is still connected to pc) put back your battery (for example using your nose )
Worked for me already a few times! If it won't work for the first time, try again and again..
The first thing to do is charge your phone just in case you have been victim of a sudden os battery drain

Try usb jig and if didnt work tell me to give you another solution
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Now I know why it all went wrong.I accidently downloaded cm9 for galaxy S2 and put it on my phone. But could still get into download mode but it's dead since Odin failed.
Ajoslaf I tried that and all I got was the sound of the usb being plugged in,nothing else.Tried filling up the battery and got the same.
Now I can try with usb jig,but doesn't that only work in download mode?
Hi,
Title pretty much says it all. My phone all of a sudden just went into a bootloop, I can't go intro recovery to reflash it and i cant even get into download mode to resurrect it since it it will stay on only for a few seconds. Odin does not recognize the device even with samsung drivers installed and i used a few different usb ports and a different computer.
Is there something i can do? seems like the last days of the device...
Try this
-remove battery
-enter download mode(volume down+home key+power button)
-while in this position, insert the battery
See if it enters download mode and odin recognizes.
If this doesn't work, try USB jig.
hello dears,
i have nokia 8 after last update of pie before a week suddenly my phone was acting strange ,so iwas tried to wipe data from twrp recovery i noticed all my folder where encrypted with strange letters i backup my data but after i reboot my phone its no longer working its freezing on bootloader warning screen and wont turn off or restart i have to wait until its battery drain to 0 and when i plug the usb with pc or charger once its reboot and i see even nokia logo but it restart again and stuck in bootloader warning (icant enter recovery mode or fastboot mode which is download mod)
and when itry to recharge phone its restart automatically after its battery get green after 5 min of recharging , at this point ithink im already fked up and the pc only detect MTP usb device under portable device as cd driver in pc (and show adb bootloader for only 3 second after plug in it to pc ) before its reboot and change to mtp
im already disappointed ifaced bootloader problem before but ifixed it easly but this one is unexpected problem
my last hope is i found that my phone can access safe mode when i hold power+vol + vol-
but i should hold it when my phone plugged to pc but the problem is ishould keep holding these 3 button to see safe mode and when i keep holding it and i see the phone screen open with menu its show me shutdown message and turn off immediately ,
any help will be appreciated ,:fingers-crossed:
You could try reflashing the stock boot image, booting into stock recovery, and doing a factory reset from there. I am not sure if TWRP can properly reset the phone if /data is encrypted. I also heard that you should avoid resetting your phone when you have Magisk installed (if thats the case for you).
You can boot into the bootloader by turning the phone off, and connecting it to a computer through the USB cable while holding down the volume up key.
