SIII mini hard reset is not working - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi users;
I've a problem and want to share with you.
I have GT-I8190 and I change the batter last week and the phone doesn't start power button isn't working. I thought that the battery must be empty and plug in the charge machine and left. 2 hours later I came and take the phone it still doesn't work. after that, I take my old battery and try to open and encryption failed error shows and it can not pass. I tried odin and format the phone. All ROMs that I tried I will publish with you. By the way recovery mod does not work phone restart yourself. it is like a loop. volume down+home+power after the boot screen restart itself. How can I fix this?
Last thing that I need to say I tried cwm installing still I can't reach recovery mode. It still restarts itself.
Most of the posts say that try 4 part ROM and Ii can not find it. Can you share a ROM with 4 part? Or suggest another way.
Thank you

i had. same problem. before.
and than. i long-holding the 3. button until. the phone go to the download mode. i was success! .
you can try it.
I got that thing too in my sgs and I got rid of it with... guess what.. Hairdryer! I just heated for 15sec from the backside without battery,sim card and microsd. After heatin' battery in and vol-,home+power and vóla! Download mode,ready to reflash! I've learned my lesson.. "read the instruction twice,before applying mod".
Edit: I didn't have 3-button recovery, so that's why I had to do this. I was flashing 3B fix,and I forgot to select phone bootloader update.. Heat the phone about 25cm distance for 15 to 20 sec, depending the power of your dryer..
Then flash new ROM..

strange problem with charging, bootloop, pls help

Hi,
I rooted my note some weeks ago and I was searching the web, reading all kind of threads and thinking what the problem might be for the last weeks. Finally I decided to register myself on xda and to post my problem.
Like mentioned before I rooted my note via CMW and then flashed a franco kernel, unfortunally I dont know which version, but no custom rom. It all worked fine for 14 maybe 16 hours, then the phone froze after opening a app and after that it stuck at the Galaxy Note N7000 logo. I tried to enter recovery but it didn't work, I can enter downloadmode but I ran out of battery before I could do anything.
Now the phone keeps turning itself on and off the whole time when I try to charge it, the battery image comes for like 1 second and after that the screen turns black again. The battery itself is new so that shouldnt be the problem. I charged it like that for like 4 hours and then tried to enter downloadmode but it only says "battery to low to download".
I hope it is not a hardware problem. If anybody has a idea please help me, I am getting desperate.

EDIT: I came from offical 4.0.4 ICS
How old is your phone? Try with another good battery.
Suggestion: you may flash gb via PC Odin and check phone back to normal.

I got my phone last april, so it is not even a year old, but I got a new battery some days before rooting it... I'll try/have to get another one anyway.
Could you give me a link for a stock gb rom please.
Thank you for your quick reply.
Kindly go thru Guru 'drketan' threads and posts.

Found it. Should I use a rom with three parts or with only one? And can I use any rom or one with a special "code" that suits my device, e.g. german....
And just flash the rom and then fullwipe or is wiping not necessary?
I am sorry for the questions but I want to do everything right.
You can use any. Wipe in GB recovery.
Thanks a lot.
Yesterday I finally found somebody to charge my battery, today I flashed a GB stock rom, but I still can`t get any further than the Samsung Galaxy Note logo... It worked one time but I turned the phone off to insert my sim card and it got stuck again.
I tried flashing with pit file and bootloader as well, but no luck.
Could it be a hardware problem? Could a J-tag repair fix it?
Thanks in advantage.

Now your on safe GB rom, enter recovery wipe cache, factory reset, wipe dalvick cache.
Let's know the result
I tried, but I am not able to enter recovery... I press volume up + home + power but I only get the N7000 logo. I have read that you have to press the home button in the right moment to enter stock recovery, could somebody tell if that is true and if yes when do I have to press?
Anyone an idea please? I can enter download mode but not recovery, I downgraded to gb 2.3.6.KK5, I flashed abyss 4.2 but I can get to recovery mode or past the GT N7000 logo. Three times it got to the "package installing" page and one time it even started then I switched it off to insert my sim card and again stuck at the N7000 logo.
I need help please...

You have to press the three button combo "a long time" and the power button should be the last one to use.
I always wait until the Samsung Logo appeared 2 times and I see the next animation (depends on your kernel/recovery).
So please try again and hold the three buttons longer.
I flashed the 3-part lc1 gb and did a full wipe. The phone now starts sometimes but gets stuck at the n7000 logo most of the time. When it starts the whole UI feels very laggy, eg. while typing. Recovery mode started one time out of 1000 tries. I am afraid that something with my hardware is wrong. Any ideas? Could a Jtag be a solution? Please help.
try again to get into recovery and do a factory reset from Gb recovery..
press it until you get to recovery. DO NOT remove your fingers when you see n7000 bootlogo. keep pressing . keep pressing. keep pressing.

I made it in the recovery, did another fullwipe, but it still lags while typing or opening/closing an app and still does not boot proper, I have to try several times to get past the logo screen and it works only when I go in downloadmode and boot from there. Entering the recoverymode still only works randomly. Any idea?
Edit: it also lags while scrolling down/up

In all you posts here you never wrote exactly what version of which Rom you installed in whatever way.
That's why I'm still not convinced that you have "defined state" and giving good advice is try&error.
So please start telling: how did you flash, what GB or ICS or JB version, Stock Rom or Custom Rom.
,Sorry, I flashed the n7000xxlc1 - open europe with odin PC, stock, prerooted and in 3 parts. After that I did a fullwipe, the phone turns on after a few tries, most time after I go in download mode and restart from there. It lags while it is on, like short freezes, I tried to install the OTA update to ICS but failed.
Before that I was stuck on the Samsung Galaxy Note logo after flashing a franco kernel via CWM (I am not sure which version but it came with the guide to root, so I thought it could not be bad)
Edit: I flashed the xxlsc 4.1.2 jelly bean offical leak via odin PC, and I still have the same problems. I takes 5-6 reboots to actually start the device and it is very laggy, almost unusable. Every second or so it freezes for short time.
Any help please? I would send it to someone to do a JTAG repair if this could help. I just dont want to waste the money, so if anyone has experienced a problem like this please help me.
Is this a brick revived phone?

[Q] Completely dead N7000. Hardbrick I think.

Howdy there.
First off, this is not "just another bricked Note thread".
I got this thing from a friend who did not have a clue what he did with it, but he told me he tried to "root it or something" He didn't have any files left, or any memory what he used.
I have for weeks tried every single trick in the book, followed every tutorial, and it shows no sign of coming to life any time soon.
When I got it, it just got stuck on the Samsung flash screen. I couldn't get into any sort of recovery, but I got into download mode, so I tried reflashing the stock firmware with ODIN, but it got stuck on NAND WRITE START for 2 hours, and then failed. All Kies processes were killed, I double checked.
After that, it only shows the "Firmware update failed, start emergency recovery mode in kies"
Kies does not support initialization for N7000, doubted it would have worked anyways.
After this, I went on to read about the brick bug for N7000
Since then I have tried repartitioning the device with all kinds of pit files, I have tried installing about 20 different firmwares, I have tried installing just a kernel, both stock and others, and NOTHING works.
Some pit files get stuck in DO NOT TURN OFF DEVICE for 6-24 hours, until I have disconnected or battery has run out, and some fail by themselves after 20 minutes.
Firmwares get stuck at NAND WRITE START, and fail after about an hour
Kernels fill up the bar with the green dots showing it's doing something but as soon as the log says "NAND Write Start" it gets stuck.
Is there ANYTHING still worth testing, before throwing it in the well? I will not go to a service center and pay to fix a spare phone that will lay in a box until I MIGHT need it some day.
It doesn't matter if my storage space goes down to only 500mb space with some sort of repartitioning, nothing matters. I just want it to run.
I do not have any recovery, and I haven't successfully installed any,
Basically the only thing I can do, is get to Download mode, and the only program so far finding it is ODIN.
I am very thankful for any help, and don't hesitate checking if I forgot something very basic, I might just as well have forgot something very important, but I feel I have tried everything.
Thank you!

Well, okay then. Thanks for clearing that up.
I just figured that it's something worse since NOTHING works, hence the "not just another" meaning "not just the same as the others". Atleast I thought it meant that. Perhaps my English isn't so good. Oh well.
I have read dozens of other threads about this where people have been able to get into recovery mode, repartition, or flash a new kernel, or at least SOMETHING, but mine just blocks everything.
-Jimi
Okay then, let's simplify the question/request.
Is there ANY way at all to scan or/and repartition my emmc?
WITHOUT a recovery.
WITHOUT it accepting anything through ODIN, not even the standard pit file, or any of the custom ones I have tried from another thread.
WITHOUT adb.
I can only get to Download Mode.
Heimdall seemed to understand my phone a bit, but couldn't flash anything.
Kernels got stuck at 100%
Factoryfs got stuck at 4%
Recovery got an error "finishing the packet" or something.
Could I use Heimdall to scan or repartition my emmc maybe?
If you are unable to Odin flash a recovery or stock rom then there's no other way. If you found other methods but is still unsuccessful then your phone is dead anyways.
I have seen the NAND write stuck error sometimes goes away on a different PC. If the memory is not already broken but worth a try.. Also use original USB cable, main PC usb port, odin 1.85.

Nah, I think the memory is broken.
I have only tested with odin 1.75, but on 3 different PCs
My laptop with Win 8.1
My old computer with XP
And my work computer with Win 7 home
Still, I do not want to give up!
In my frustration I started to flash everything and anything that just had a N7000 tag on it, and somehow somewhere something happened.
I do not have the "firmware failed, use kies recovery" message anymore.
I am instead getting the Samsung splash screen, but it freezes there, I can't do anything.
And also, if my device is off, I can charge it! The battery shows up, but then it freezes with the circle in it before it fills with green to show how much it is charged, but now it atleast accepts charge. Before it didn't.
But I still wonder if I could not scan and repartition my phone with anything else than recovery mode? Perhaps I could flash a repartitioned custom Pit file with Odin if I could just scan it somehow?
I got a similar problem with my uncle's Note. It was working fine all these years, until last month when I rooted it to upgrade it to 5.1. The phone worked for over a month post upgrading.
However, now, when I power it up, nothing happens, absolutely nothing. If I connect it to a power source, the offline battery charging symbol comes up saying 100%. Recovery mode doesnot work, though I can go in Download mode.
I tried a couple of stock ROM images through ODIN. They were flashed successfully, but the issue persists. Looks like another dead Note.

Which rom was this?

Thanks for your reply. Couldn't check it until last night. I was running NightOwl when this happened. Last night, I thought something and flashed the same Philz recovery through Odin and some how it worked.
I have started realizing that it is a hardware issue, since the device does not start without being connected to a power source. 1 out of 20 tries take me into recovery (of course while the device is connected to the charger, or else the screen is always black).
However, the recovery doesn't stay too long. I tried flashing a newer version of NightOwl, but while the recovery is still opening the package, the phone restarts .
One weird thing is that the phone doesn't starts without being connected to the PC or the charger. But when connected, within seconds, the offline charging screen says 100%, which is making me believe something is wrong with the hardware.
Part of the "hardware" is your battery...

Note 5 got stuck while flashing and after battery drain stuck on charging + pictures

Hi all,
I recently received a note 5 SM-920i.
I rooted it and installed TWRP using a few guides from XDA. After that, i created a backup just in case (6.0.1) and tried to flash LineageOS. I didn't know that there was a difference between 920i/c/g/t etc and i just tried to flash without even checking.
When I tried flashing, installation got stuck (see pictures attached). I couldnt stop installation and go back to TWRP menu but i could take screenshots and swipe up and down. I tried to restart, hard reset, shut down but nothing helped, it was just stuck like this.
Once the battery ran out i wanted to charge the note 5 and try to go into recovery mod to re-install the backup but now its stuck on the charging logo even when its not connected to power. When I try to open it or go to recovery mode, nothing happens.
Has anyone ever had such an issue?
Would appreciate any help with this.
Thanks!!!
You need to flash stock rom with Odin. Volume up and power buttons same time about 7 second and right away when screen goes black volume down,home,power buttons same time. You get into download mode. Press volume up when first green display shows.
Download stock firmware for your model without auto restart options in Odin.
When you get pass firmware flash put your phone charger and leave there for little while. Then again force restart.
Volume, power button and keep those pressed so long that hopefully blue screen start and goes recovery mode and leave phone do work for you.
BTW all these custom roms some how not work for me.
Phone just start to be unstable and restart all the time.
Now finally I get stock nougat rom to work with Nova laugher.
Over 3 hours sot still 46% battery left and no single restart so far. Samsung pay off,GPS battery safe. Greenfinity.
Mobiledata 3G/2G. WiFi on. NFC off. Location history off.
That setup work for me and first time phone is stable.
And awesome battery life.
Hope this helps you.

T-mobile - Note 4 keeps rebooting even after updating to new firmware.

Hi Guys,
I have used my T-mobile Note 4 for years since it came out. I have replace the batteries once, but like a month ago when there was an update my phone keep restarting and turning off. I then had to get another phone because of that I still cant get it to restart even after I bought a new battery, updated the firmware. can some one guide me the right way to do this right. I think I am not doing the flashing the right way.. with oldin, and the correct firmware. after I do that I get this installing updates andriod show and it stops and reboots again. please help. thanks
- this phone was never locked before
- Replaced the battery once
- one day when there were a bunch of apps that needed update with probably 35% battery I let it update and after that it kept rebooting
- So installed the twrp recovery.tar.md5 from here that didnt help
- So then from sammobile I downloaded the latest firmware and installed it, that didnt help too
So the question is can I just wipe the whole phone and start fresh? -

download and install this using odin

Thank you for your response, unfortunately this didn't work for me I did install the latest firmware , but the phone doesn't go to the stock recovery mode for some reason and keeps rebooting. it does say Recovery booting... but it shuts off. so I have no way to do that even if I keep pressing the volume up, power and the home buttons pressed then release the home and power and keep pressing the volume button.

So I tried this yesterday evening,
- I did install the latest firmware which was suggest in by one of the comments above :
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24651442761499080
- then flashed it with philz recovery and did the factory reset and rebooted it but no luck.
- when restart the phone, its shows the Samsung note 4 logo then shuts off.
im afraid to say that your note 4 might bebroken now. If you go to the note 4 reddit, this has happened to many people and has something to do with the solder degrading after a few years iirc. Best thing you can do is buy a motherboard replacement for around 60 on eBay if nothing else works. I have replaced 3 note 4 motherboards for people i know that this has happened to.

- Ran into another issue where I am getting this 'Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.'
- For some reason the Oldin froze and I had no way to stop the download process.
- I tried using Kies to install the recovery but cannot, I did look for SM-N910T ...but nothing.

^^^This. I just had to replace our two Note 4 after years of service over the last two months. Same symptoms as yours. It is most assuredly hardware related.
Even "better", from the two replacements sent by TMo, one failed within the week. The replacement just abruptly shut off and doesn't turn back on unless the battery is removed for 20 min. or so.
However, once it turns on it freezes. Try to boot to recovery, it freezes before even loading it up. One time the screen display even corrupted on me.
So, tldr, it is time for a replacement MoBo. Good luck!

The new battery may initially help, but it sounds suspiciously like the mmc is beginning to fail. Wakelock app set to option 4. Only thing that worked for me.

Try to go back to 4.4.4 by flashing t2 firmware see if that fixes it ,while i was on anyother build everything would either lag or freeze, internet,play store, toggles nothing worked even after factory install firmware and factory restore i went to 4.4.4 and no issues 48 hrs later .

Why is it that the When I restart the phone show the Samsung Galaxy note 4 powered by Android screen and then when it has to go to the next screen the Samsung (pink) only the S partially shows, freezes and then the blue light comes on and the light now stays on, screen go blank and stays that way even if I do a restart by pressing the volume down + power,
