Hey all
I was in the process of rooting my galaxy tab s2 and got to the part where I was meant to put the custom rom on the sd card, silly me put it on the internal storage. I turned the tablet off and went to restart in recovery mode to install the rom, the tablet started as normal then crashed with the screen flashing like a TV with no signal every 30 seconds. I managed to get it into download mode blindly and now the screen flashes the download mode every 30 secs but im unable to connect it to my computer or anything
Have I turned this into a paperweight or can I recover this somehow?
Thankyou

Hello,
could someone please help me with my issue about the phone, as the name says, it stops booting at the glowing S samsung galaxy s logo, does the whole animation and sound before hand but nothing after...
It only vibrates for a milisecond once and three rapid vibrationg after few seconds then repeats... and screen goes black as well...
What I did: I did what the guide to get the 3 button download mode said, I tried it while my phone was fully functional and it did enter the download mode... So I thought it worked fine, also did the rooting thing as it's said in a guide here somewhere... an icon, superuser showed up...
I had my sd card unmounted when I tried to flash my rom using this guide :
Code:
well I can't put a video link here, so I guess just the name of the video on youtube could be sufficient:
Samsung Galaxy S Full Customization Guide (Part 1 of 3)
I did everything according the guide and after I first hit Start in odin, it started flashing, then phone restarted and gave me an error... and that is the current state...
I can't go into download mode
I can go into the Clockwork recovery mode tho
I tried to press the recovery firmware but it didn't work, also tried to mount sd card in clockwork advanced settings but it gave me an error...
I also get a screen sometimes when I try to access clockwork recovery mode that says forced upload by key pressing...
Is there a way to fix this ? I am really hopeless in this...
Thank you so much in advance
This morning, I was trying to upgrade The Galaxy Project ROM on my S3 4G from version 5 to 6.66. I wiped the cache partition before installing the ROM, but after rebooting the phone, I discovered that the OS and recovery got wiped, as the phone stays stuck on the default black and white i9305 logo, and booting in download mode (volume down+home+power) shows that the stock download mode has been put back on.
This appears to be the second time that this has occurred to me, and last time, I had to use another microSD card to reinstall recovery and an OS to get the phone operational again.
Any idea how this could have happened?
What do you mean Stock Download mode ???.
What about recovery ???
jje
there is only one download mode - the stock one, nothing can change it
So I flashed a recovery from terminal emulator, pressed reboot to recovery, the phone showed blank black screen, shut down and it kept on doing this for a loooong time.
After that I tried download mode, but it's stuck at setup connection. Any things I can still try before JIG/JTAG?
EDIT: The panic was bigger than the problem. Pulled out SIM, SD card, tried to boot it, it displayed a logo showing that there is a problem with the connection to the PC, then I booted to download mode and flashed a 4 package ROM, as it can override the boot thingy. So it's all good now.
I tried to do stock rom (P1000XWJQB8_P1000DBTJQ1_DBT) with pit (gt-p1000_mr.pit) with ODIN. During the flashing process it stuck somewhere on (hidden) and after some time it shows fail. But device is stuck on downloading screen and shows half process bar and I wait for hour and so but device is still stuck on the same. So, I decided to turn off and start the device again and I did. But after turning off when i tried to start device again it wont start I mean there is no screen booting happening just back camera flash every time i tried to power on the device or tried to charge it or connect it to USB. Even ODIN or Hemidell is not detecting it anymore.
Please help me.......
[SOLVED: Just downloaded latest version of Odin from Sammobile. What a relief!]
Hey guys, this is my first post so please forgive me for any mistakes.
My Note, unlocked SM-960U1, was stuck on June 1 security patch so I decided to flash to this month's firmware:
N960U1UEU2CSH2 for XAR
This got me stuck in a boot loop, which is now causing me to panic. I tried going to download mode and flashing it again but then another issued appeared:
it got stuck on a blue screen with the android and "erasing" I used HOME_CSC This isn't even supposed to erase anything!!!
I tried going on recovery mode but It didn't show up. I went to download mode then, and chose restart. That led me to the recovery mode and I chose restart again, and it showed me this:
#Reboot Recovery Cause is [[odin]RebootRecoveryAfterOdinDL]#
Support SINGLE-SKU
Block-Based OTA
Supported API: 3
# MANUAL MODE v1.0.0#
Rebooting...
That just froze and never rebooted! NO other commands work now. I am freaking out. The phone is hot also. Please someone help out!
Update
I can go on download mode now, but if I choose reset it sends me to the boot screen and then I see a dead android for a split second, then I'm in recovery mode. I can do nothing useful in there and restarting just freezes again

you might have your terminology backwards. There isnt a button in download mode to reset the phone, there is one in recovery tho.
Anyways, if you can get to download mode, youre likely gonna be just fine. Just download a fresh copy of your firmware and flash it with Odin with your phone in download mode
Battery Drained

I know it's been a year, but I recently experienced the issue. So this is for...someone else? lol
If you had a PASS on Odin and yet you stuck on boot loop, chances are your battery is drained, and it might not successfully boot to run configuration and deletion. Connect it to a power source, it might prompt it to the boot loop but do it regardless. After like 15-30 mins, you should see the battery charging indicator. You should be good!
