SM-T713 stuck in Odin mode (won't power off) - Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to install LineageOS on a brand new SM-T713. I have booted the device into Odin mode and used Heimdall to flash TWRP. AFAICT, this completed successfully.
Now I am supposed to power the device off and reboot it into recovery mode, but I can't figure out how to power it off.
Any ideas?
UPDATE: The solution was to hold down the volume-up, volume-down, and power buttons simultaneously; this reboots the device. Fortunately, the stock OS did not overwrite the recovery partition, so I was able to power-off and boot into TWRP.

Problems installing TWRP in Tab S2 T713

My Tab S2 T713 is currently running the latest stock Samsung rom. I want to install Lineage 15.1
I've downloaded twrp-3.2.1-0-gts28vewifi.img.tar & Odin 3.12.7. I can boot into download mode, flash TWRP with Odin which says success & my tablet reboots normally. When I power down & reboot into recovery TWRP gets over written by the stock recovery.
If I uncheck Auto Reboot in Odin, after flashing success, I'm still in download mode - I've read that I need to boot directly into recovery from download mode - how do I do this?
In download mode pressing home + voldown + power reboots normally. Pressing home + volup + power does nothing
What am I doing wrong?

Instructions:
Flash with ODIN 3.10.7 in the AP slot.
Put your device in DOWNLOAD mode.
Uncheck Auto reboot.
Load the respective file below into the AP slot and hit start.
After flashing and ODIN reports PASS immediately reboot to recovery by holding POWER + HOME + VOL DOWN.
As soon as the screen goes blank change to VOL UP whilst still holding POWER + HOME.
You should now see TWRP recovery.
Brilliant - thank you. Why they can't have they have that in the Lineage install instructions?
Now running Lineage 15.1 = happy bunny

For the love of god, thank you. This wasn't in the LineageOS instructions. But I still can't install it, it says my bootloader isn't supported (T713XXU1APG1).

Did you go into your developer settings and make sure you toggled the option titled "OEM Unlock"?

Good to hear! Please make sure you give a thumbs up to anyone who helped. It really keeps the community alive and kicking!
I found that I had to do this from completely powered off state:
press home + volume up + power
wait until second "sentence" appears on screen in yellow (the first "sentence" is blue),
Then release all buttons
twrp now boots.
for some reason, my internal and external storage is showing 0 mb. Anyway to fix this?
Try formatting (not just wipe) data.
Should the Galaxy Tab S2 2016 be on TWRP 3.2.1.0 or the new 3.2.3.0 for Linage OS 15?
If so, can't you just flash the update using TWRP on the img file, or is ODIN on the tar needed?
OK, I updated to TWRP 3.2.3 using TWRP Recovery and the img file. Appears to work fine.

Sorry to revisit this issue. I can't get TWRP going on my S2 Tablet. I understand these instructions, but at the end of the ODIN installation there are two possibilities that I can see. If you set the ODIN to automatically reboot then you cannot do the above because it says to do it from completely powered off.
If you don't set ODIN to reboot automatically I can't get the tablet to turn off. I can only get it to boot by holding home+volume down + power. How do I get the tablet to power off before booting??
I am using ODIN 3.14.4 and TWRP-3.7.0 9-0-gts28wifi.img.tar and my stock firmware is NRD90M.T713XXS2BSG1 with Kernel 3.10.84-14953299
Thank you.

Can't boot into recovery all of a sudden

I try power off phone and holding power and volume up at same time. Nothing happens. I have magisk and try rebooting to recovery using terminal but still just boots into regular. I used to have TWRP. How can I get recovery back?
Download TWRP and
Code:
fastboot boot
into it.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...t/recovery-twrp-3-1-1-stock-security-t3706704
You don't want volume up - that's a force-reboot of the phone.
You need to hold volume *down* and power.

Cannot flash/enter twrp.

Hi.
Im having alot of trouble doing custom stuff with my mi 9. At this point i have succesfully flashed aospextended on my mi 9 but i cannot enter twrp. It just "recovery loops" with the mi logo. I have tried flashing it again, just booting to twrp from fastboot but it still won't boot to twrp. I am consistently having issues booting to twrp at a point where i had to flash global stable from fastboot because it never stopped booting to stock recovery, where after i formattet cache and userdata. Thanks in advance.

Hi!
Try telling us what you have done so far (in terms of modifications as well). Which recovery did you (try) flashing?
I personally tried skiantibag & maufirinio (I know it's not the proper spelling but you'll find it) + flashing RevolutionOS.
You've probably heard it already: Fastboot -> flash recovery -> does it boot into (after shutting down -> volume up + standby pressed)
If not try (first flashing the recovery) then booting from the .img file via fastboot.
After that wipe everything and flash Revolution OS/xiaomi.eu. Do you still experience the problems then? Short hint at the end: setup a password (code - during the android setup process) since your storage gets encrypted (no matter what - at least for me).
Good night, good luck!

after flashing twrp, (assuming ur using fastboot cmds to boot to twrp) use buttons to reboot to twrp. Long press power button and volume up together until device reboots, once it vibrates, let go of power but keep holding vol up until twrp boots. Then disconnect phone from pc. Twrp should now stick. Which twrp you using?

This. Rebooting from command line did not work for me either. Just press power + vol up until screen closes and keep pressing 3 more seconds after mi logo appears.

G973F Stuck on Boot Screen After Failed BeyondROM Install and TWRP 3.4.0-3 Flash

I believe i've royally screwed up and i want to know if there's anything I can do to save my phone.
I downloaded the latest BeyondROM from here after being on a previous version for about a year (not sure which one I was on):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...evelopment-exynos/rom-beyondrom-v6-0-t4017921
I flashed the zip file through TWRP and only after flashing did I realize that I was on TWRP 3.3.1-11 and not 3.4.0-3, which I'm guessing is why my phone is now stuck on the boot logo when I boot it. I went back into TWRP and cleared the Dalvik & standard cache again after this but no dice.
But it gets worse. I then tried to upgrade to 3.4.0-3 by flashing it from TWRP 3.3.1-11 using the recovery partition, hoping to reflash the firmware after doing so.
After doing this and my phone rebooting, not only am I stuck on the boot screen, but now I can no longer enter recovery mode either by holding Bixby + Vol Up + Power. My phone isn't recognized by my PC or Odin now either.
Is my phone completely bricked, or is there a way to salvage this mess i've made?
Could really use some help.
Thanks guys.
If you can go to download mode, try re-flashing the stock Samsung firmware via Odin.

Thanks for the suggestion, however that's my primary issue. I can't get to download mode (which really should be recovery mode since I have TWRP).
Do you think it could be an issue with me rebooting to recovery mode after upgrading TWRP using TWRP itself? Maybe my phone needs to be hard powered off once to access TWRP again?
And since I have that failed ROM install, the only way to power off the phone would be to wait for the battery to drain.
Power+volume down+Brixby goes right into download mode bypassing the recovery

My phone just keeps restarting when Power + vol down are held. Looks like draining the battery didn't help either. I'm stuck on the boot screen even when plugged in with 0% battery. When I remove the USB Cable and hold Vol down + Power, the phone seems to turn off because there's no battery, but immediately after plugging in a power cable, the phone automatically turns on by itself again.
You can try this, but best not to flash anything without charging battery first. You can charge while phone is off:

M31 can't boot to android recovery mode

Hello, I'm having some problems with my M31, it keeps going into boot frequently every day. Whenever there is a call or any activity like opening the app it switches off and only turns back on if I press and hold the power button with volume keys. I tried to reset it hard but it will not go into recovery mode. I press and hold the power and volume up button but instead of recovery mode, it turns on. I don't know what to do, please help!
Recovery Android12: press and hold Volume Up and Power then plugin USB cable to PC
Reflash full firmware if you cannot get rid of the random boots.
