Hello,
installed Maximum OvrDriVE S7 v3.7 thru TWRP. Everything was OK.
However, the phone didn't restart itself. It powered off, and I cannot turn it on by power button.
Any suggestion, please?

Hello everyone.
I have a Galaxy S running stock ROM. No lagfix no custom ROM no root nothing.
Just now I tried going into recovery/download mode to see what features it have by pressing the volume down+home+Power button.
Now the phone says "Downloading
Do not turn of target! "
What can I do to solve this problem. Till now I havent tried to restart the phone? Should I do that?
Regards
Just pull the battery out and then start your phone normaly

Thanks for the quick reply. I am quite worried now.
Are you sure about the solution though? I have read about bricked phones though I dont think mine is such the case as I was not installing anything to the phone!
So pulling out battery is safe...or I should 1st try pressing the power button and see if it switches off?
Regards
If you didn't star flashing it with odin and just started download mode with 3 button combo there is nothing to be afraid of... You have to pull out the battery and put it back in.

Thanks a lot. I had simultaneously created this thread on 1 another forum also and someone told the same thing there.
I pulled out the battery and restarted the phone and it works fine. This incident have made sure I wont try Rooting the phone until its absolutely obselete!
Again thanks very much for your quick response which solved the problem.
Regards
I installed clockwork mod recovery on my phone. Had a ROM to install, however the ROM installer package wasn't working properly. I mistakenly restarted my phone after having formatted my phone to install the ROM. So now the phone has started up to the white HTC screen and will not go any further. I cannot get it to restart into recovery or to simply power down. Do I need to just let the battery die and then restart into recovery or is there a hardware way to get it to restart without tearing the phone apart? Thanks!
Maybe try power plus volume up?

Just holding the power button for 10 seconds or so. It should power off. It is essentially the same thing as pulling the battery (on phone where you can do that).

Volume UP plus Power for 10 seconds worked to get it to power down. Then I was able to access recovery. Thank you
Hi,
I am using CM12 nightly memul with TWRP 2.8.5.0 and now have trouble booting my phone. I turned it off and charged it overnight. Next morning the screen showed the "empty battery sign" and I could not boot.
I have yet tried to press the power button under a bright light and to somehow reboot it via adb and fastboot. I would now like to seek your advice in this matter, please.
With kind regards 981475165

You can forcefully reboot it by holding the Power and Vol+ keys for about 10-15 seconds. It should boot normally then IMO
Thank you very much. I did that before but the battery must have been too low, because at that time it didn't work.
So i was using my phone tonight after i charged it, and it randomly shutted down when it had about 80%, black screen and i can't even get to the bootloader.. My phone wasn't overheating, now i'm afraid it's totally dead.
Help?
Longpress the power button(around 30 sec). It's force reboot. U can't go to bootloader cuz phone isn't turned off, it lagged hard.

The phone is actually turned off, pressing volume down+power doesn't do anything.
Did you try a forced reboot?
Can you charge your phone (like does it show the charging screen when you plug in the charge?). Charge it to a 100% and do a factory reset via recovery.
If you can't do anything like that then I'm afraid you'll have to reflash stock firmware If you can that is.
Give some more information in the OP like your rom, kernel and if you have any mods.

Plugging it in doesn't do anything.
Had RR 5.1 Rom, TWRP and decipher.
The same thing happened to me yesterday, but I was with Stock 4.4.4 without ROOT and was upgrading to 5.0.2 OTA

Can u try it before responding? I've had such lags a lot. Just press pwr button till it force-reboots.
HELP PLEASE!!
I tried to flash the TWRP-Recovery via Odin following this instruction:
http://www.droidviews.com/root-galaxy-tab-a-10-1-wifi-sm-t580-2016-and-install-twrp-recovery/
instead of the XDA-instruction since it contains some pictures and everything was o. K. till I made step 9 and disconnected the tablet when I received the message from Odin "PASS".
Unfortunately this tutorial forgot to mention that I have to wait until also "the progress bar on phone should stop" as it is mentioned in the tutorial here on XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-a/development/recovery-official-twrp-gtaxlwifi-galaxy-t3437666
I know I am a fool since the tablet clearly states "Downloading... Do not turn off target" and the progress bar is very close to the end but was not complete. Now this message is frozen on the screeen and I can't go back or forth.
I tried to restart the tablet normally and into the downloading mode, I tried also to reflash the TWRP-image with Odin but Odin does not recognize the tablet being connected. I tried to remove the battery (how? I can't open the tablet, also Youtube didn't help me).
Does anybody has an idea for me? Should I wait until the battery is completly drained so that the tablet automatically turns off?
Please, please, please help me since this tablet should be a gift for my wife and no I fear to have bricked it forever.
The tablet is (was) running Android 6.0.1, Kernel is 3.18.14-8761055, Build is MMB229K. And I also noted T580XXU1APG1.
Hold power and volume down to reboot, then quickly switch to holding volume up, power, and home to boot into twrp

Thanks - this combination lets me leave the DOWNLOAD MODE screen :good:!
I could reboot into recovery and - WOW - TWRP was installed properly!
I could now flash SuperSU-zip and thus my tablet is now rooted.
