I8200N soft bricked by selecting 'boot into recovery' in ROM manager. - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I foolishly selected boot into recovery mode in ROM manager hoping it would work and now my phone is soft bricked. It's suck at the boot logo. This phone doesn't have recovery mode only download mode. But I can't keep the phone on long enough because it powers off and goes back to the boot screen. I should add that when I plug it in the computer it goes off and vibrates but when I put it in the charging port in stays on. Help me please.

Hello.

How to use Odin look at This.
Good luck.

Boot your tab holding down the power button and the closest volune button
Instead of booting into recovery, enter into download mode.
Connect the device to your computer with the usb cable
Open up odin
Make sure you do not have repartion checked
Click pda and find that recovery file you downloaded on your computer
Click start and let it run. Do not interrupt it.
Hi
I faced the same by trying to flash CWM from rom manager itself.
I could resolve issue by just reflashing with odin correct clockworkmod recovery
I did the same thing than you
+ I rebooted using "reboot in recovery" so normal boot fail
+ BootLoader "Vol Down + Power" fail also because I tried to reach the recoverymod through it.
+ It doesn't reload
Somebody as any idea ?

Set the tablet down and let it die if it still has battery charge. if it doesn't have a charge hook it up to your charger and leave it there for a while. After some time has past with the charging cable still connected hold down the power and vol button and go into download. not recovery
then follow the steps of my previous post. Download odin and the proper recovery for your device and flash it through odin

Actually the device was bugged with a black screen, not turned off.
When I woke up this morning it was perfectly booted. So I turned it off and flashed the recovery again.

1st, pull out the battery & re-insert it. Then try download mode. Or, directly goto recovery & flash another(stable)custom rom. To use odin, u must install ur phone drivers on pc first. Then, odin will detect ur phone.:thumbup:

@jasaad your device is showing samsung logo that means you can still enter into recovery mode.
First download a stable ROM u like.
Pull out the battery -> press and hold the home button -> reinsert the battery -> press power button (still holding home button) and you will enter the recovery mode for sure.

[Q] Softbricked my phone... need help!

Hi,
So I try to flash my phone with Odin, but it seems I made a mistake. It's a long story... When I go back to stock rom from custom, I use Odin and my phone goes to a bootloop. Then I try to reflash stock rom with Odin again and I have the same problem every time. I like to clear cache/user but when my phone goes to recovery mode I can't navigate with hardware buttons (not hardware issue) just the power button works so I can't do nothing here. Ok here start a strange part (for me) bc. download mode it's not accessible with key combination just from command line and when I get download mode I try to flash twrp recovey with Odin but the result is sofbrick. My phone not recognized by Odin and adb commands not working anymore. I can't access recovery or download mode. My phone stay on logo and nothing happen.
Thank You for any solution!

Can't boot to flash mode or recovery mode.

I really need help.
I've got my phone bricked and I can't even boot to flash mode or to recovery mode.
The last thing I've done is boot to twrp and clear data because I am going to change rom. But there is a certain error that pops up. and forgot what was it. After that, I try to flash the rom. But the same error pops up. If I remember correctly. e:ex4ts is not found? Something like that? And now. When I turn on my phone. The xperia logo still pops up. Then after that its only black screen. I tried going to recovery (power + Vol up + vol down) and also tried flash mode but nothing really happens. Its like not being detected. And when I try to charge it. The xperia logo pops up and black screen appears. The charging icon/animation is not popping up. Is there anyway to fix this? Please help. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
Your phone is now bricked and won't boot into recovery.You need to flash stock rom via flashtool to recover your phone.Is that your phone's bootloader Lock?Unable to boot into recovery always happen in locked bootloader phone.
Use Flashtool to flash stock rom. But be careful to connect phone only when prompted. It should boot after that, then you can root phone again and try to install recovery again.
I have unlocked bootloader already. I think there is something wrong with the phone. I can't boot to flash mode and recovery mode. The screen continues to go black light. I've tried for more than 20 times already. But still. I can't go to flash mode. Can I go to flash mode by only connecting my phone to my pc?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1963961
use recovery img to flash via flashtool.you'll get your recovery back
Thank you so much for answering my query. I figured it out before reading this. Yes, I forgot how to use flashtool. I forgot how to boot into flash mode. I used the method in Samsung devices (All buttons must be pressed) which technically my mistake. Thanks again.

open phone and check point of contact string of buttons imo
your phone dont droped or flooded?
you use home buton +power+ vol up to get recovery mode ?
fake chinese s3 ?
press buttons long to get into download mode, try charge battery using 4v and 100mA without phone case

no i didnt drop it or drop it in water.
its a genuine S3, been working fine, just done an update and it went into loop.
I have tried the button combo, but that will only work if it is not in bootloop.
I have managed to get into odin and it is now downloading...
hope this fixes it.
taking for ever to download Odin or whatever its downloading.....
