Need sm-G800F TWRP persistance - Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ive managed to flash with odin a build version that works with the G800F from another thread linking to the file 'twrp_kminilte-build3.tar'. Unfortunately on rebooting it loses TWRP persistance. And any attemp to find another version has only resulted in an infinate bootloop when fixing the file permission from read only on entering.
Does anyone have a odin compatible recovery that works with the G800F on android 5.1.1
Thanks

You have to go into recovery right after you flashed it, if you are on Touchwiz.
Go to Odin, flash the recovery (best would be the one provided by hennymcc) and then immediately grab your phone and press the buttons for recovery, BEFORE it reboots.

[Q] How to fix Galaxy Mini S5570I brick

I have rooted my S5570I with universal root I found here, and it worked, but I decided to install MIUI and I forgot to install Clockwork Recovery, so it failed, and now when i try to turn on my phone it just gets stuck on boot. But I can access download and recovery mode. When I go to recovery, it says that it's unable to mount /system. And when I try to flash stock firmware in odin (Indian firmware on phone from Croatia, I have read that it's the same, only that my phone will be named Galaxy Pop) it won't discover my phone. (It is in download mode) And also kies can't discover it. Before I try to flash in odin, I make sure that no kies processes are open in task manager. I tried to install Clockwork recovery with flashing in normal android recovery, and it says that it's complete, and when I press reboot, take out the battery, and go to recovery again, it's the same. Can anyone help?

Galaxy S ODIN Flash

Guys I've got a problem with my Galaxy S i9000 with CM9. It stopped working after restart (endless loop on Cyangenmod logo) and now I'cant get to recovery mode. Only download mode works, so I think that I must to flash it with ODIN. And there is a problem, because I can't find proper CM9 ROM files for ODIN. And what version of ODIN should I use? Now I've got 4.38 and phone is visible - it's OK?
I will be very pleased for ROM files to ODIN and some instructions how to flash it propely. I've read many threads from morning, but I can't find ROMs
Hi there,
afaik there are no CM Versions flashable via ODIN.Use ODIN to flash a Stock firmware, then install ClockworkModRecovery and Install CM9 via CWM.
You should try to take Out your Battery for about 5 minutes and try to enter Recovery Mode.
About the Odin Version: If you look at different "howto use ODIN tutorials" there are different Versions "recommended" I've used multiple ODIN Versions eg 1.3 / 1.83 and every Version made a good job.
Give this a try if Battery-out for 5 Minutes does't take you back to recovery

you should flash the stock rom got 3 type file, that mean the file after download got pda, csc and modam file, like 2.3.6 XXjvu, please dont flash the file after download only have 1 file only, like XXjw5.

Galaxy S6 - Soft brick using auto-root

I downloaded CF-autoroot and followed these steps and now it is stuck on bootloop. I downloaded Odin 3.10.6 and right cf-auroroot version as well.
http://galaxys6root.highonandroid.com/galaxy-s6-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s6-or-s6-edge/
"When done, you should see “RESET!” on ODIN program and your S6/S6 Edge will reboot to show something like below. This is where CF-Auto Root roots your S6/S6 Edge."
It never boots into recovery and it's immposible to manually boot to it as well. It just auto-reboot and stuck on "samsung powered by android."

Try this....run cf auto root again with Odin...make sure NOTHING is checked under "options" (the tab above the log)...after it finishes (only said RESET! for me too)...once it is done, hold VOLUME DOWN AND POWER until the screen goes black....it should (did for me) boot into stock recovery and finish the root process... Once it is done, reboot system.....you should be rooted now.

Cannot instal STOCK ROM after instlling CM12/13

Hi!
I have installed TWRP and CM13 on my S5 mini (G800F), but i got many bugs and restarts, so i decided to go back to Stock ROM, unfortunatelly i cannot do this.
When i open Odin and try to install STOCK Rom from samsungmobile everything is good, till the and, when i got:
Write finished (filed)
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
I tried on laptop and deskop using various USB port but everytime i get the same message.
And when i get the battery out and power on i get:
"firmware upgrade enountered an issue. Please select recoery mode in Kies and try again"
I tried to connet it with Kies in recovery odin mode but Kies does not recogenize it.
Then i need my phone so i decided to move back to CM this time i have installed the CM12, after using it, one day and having many restarst i tried one more to move to STOCK ROM. I downloaded the older verios of STOCK ROM then i had before. But i got the same messege.
Then someone tell mi to make full wipe, so using TWRP i done the full wipe, cache, data, system and internal storage/sd.
After wipeing internal storage i get only:
"firmware upgrade enountered an issue. Please select recoery mode in Kies and try again"
and cannot even install recovery via Odin any more, beacouse i get bugs ;/ ;/ ;/
as a result i cannot even use my phone with CM12/13.
1. Do You have any tips or solution of this problem?
2. How can I instal STOCK ROM or even CM?
3. Can I install the CM via Odin?
4. Do You have any other recovery for S5 mini G800F?
He there, sorry to hear you're having troubles with the phone. I experienced a similar problem and found that this worked:
Try and flash your stock firmware, when it fails, take out battery, put it back in and restart into recovery mode (stock recovery). From there, do a factory reset and wipe (not using Team Win Recovery Project, using the stock Recovery).
Now go back to odin and try flashing again.
Hope this helps...it worked for me.
Do this when error occurs after flashing stock firmware!
1. Flash stock firmware
2. Get error message
3. Remove battery and start in Recovery Mode
4. Flash hidden.img that you can extract of the stock file!
Quote from reddit.com:
If you've tried to flash firmware off of Sammobile, and had your heart stop when the flash fails, fear no longer.
To fix the soft brick:
Open the firmware file in winrar and extract the hidden.img. Rename it as hidden.img.tar.
Load the new file into the PDA tab, and flash.
When the phone boots, the displayed image will be touchwiz teal, there will be a little android and GALAXY spelt above it. Don't freak out.
Give it a minute and it should boot.
Hi, jest i did happend after flashing a stock firmware, but fortunatelly now it work.
How do i manage to fix it? I do not know. I just tried to flash it with a stock firmware one more time, and than tried to flash TWRP recovery via Odin. It get a fail. But the phone got power on, and it works till now !!!!
What was the problem? I have read that if you have the other CSC than XEO and want to flash the ROM with XEO CSC on S5 mini this problem occurs on many phone. Espesially on that from UK, so mine was.
thanks!!

Made a mistake in ODIN. Stuck on Boot loop. Can't get into recovery.

So I was on the road to installing the Marshmallow Dr. Ketan ROM for Jio VOLTE.
The problem occurred because I mistakenly selected something into the 'BL' section of ODIN instead of the 'AP' section.
Ever since then I haven't been able to neither boot into the phone nor get into recovery.
What should be my next step for getting the phone to work again?
All I can do is get into download mode and restart the phone. I can't seem to catch the phone in the middle of the restart to boot into recovery for some reason. I even re installed the TWRP recovery (AP in odin) it installed fine, but I just can't seem to get into recovery.
Any and all help much appreciated!
Find and download bootloader and flash it through Odin. Then reflash recovery. That should do the trick, (make sure u download the right bootloader! Or you might hardbrick you're fone!)
