theunlocker .com - Howto: Load a Custom ROM on your android phone (after any one click root method)
when i tried to reboot my phone in recovery mode using rom manager the phone restarted and keeps looping the rogers logo
it wont stop unless i take out the battery
it wont let me reboot the phone in any mode by:
1.) holding the down volume + power
2.) holding the home button + power
3.) holding the back button +power
though it will let me hold the trackball + power button... but the screen remains black the only thing t change is the colour light at the top goes blue
if anyone has any ideas how to help please feel free to suggest

Flash this and you will SURE have CMW:

Also be sure you are doing it right
1.-Turn off the phone.
2.-Press volume up + volume down +power button
3.- As soon as "Samsung" screen appears release power button while STILL holding vol up + vol down.
4.- Keep vol up + vol down pressed for about 5 secs after you released the power button
5.- Release vol up and vol down and it should go straight to Recovery.
If that doesnt work flash the defused file from the link i posted you ( Im not the author its AdamOutler)
phone :
htc one s
rooted
cyanogenmod
CWM recovery v6.0.5.1
so the story is :
i forgot to charge my phone last night and it ran out of battery and died. when i plug it into charger or PC, it immediately boots into CWM without pressing anything and wont enter anything else. it also doesnt seem to charge in CWM and when i try to power it off, it simply goes into CWM again. simply put, i cant turn it off or charge it. phone was working perfectily fine before.
what i'm trying to do now is trying to boot it into bootloader and try to charge with fastboot script (i did it before) so i can get enough voltage to boot it into the OS. but the phone refuses to enter bootloader by any means and simply goes back into CWM.
tried holding the vol down + power button for 10 secs till it restarts, release power and hold it again while keeping the vol down pressed. but it still enter CWM (usually this is what i do to enter bootloader)
i cant restart to bootloader from CWM either (any buttons to power off, restart, boot to anywhere from CWM simply brings it back to CWM)
holding only the power button till it restarts also brings it back to CWM.
holding the vol down + power button without releasing them simply gives me screen flicker and it loops that way. i assume that made the phone soft reset repeatedly?
holding the vol down + power and releasing power once it resets and tapping power also brings it back to CWM.
here's a simple video showing the phone : youtu.be/PDvskMZIHAM
any help would be appreciated. thanks.
solved : as i noticed that the phone charging led turns on whenever i hold the power button. i tried holding the power button for god knows how long while plugged in. i released it once my finger was tired and cant hold it anymore and it boots into cyanogenmod.
I have a rooted S6 (G920F) and I used TWRP Manager to install TWRP on it. I wasn't careful with verifying the directory and apparently it installed on the wrong one, and after rebooting it's been stuck in the boot screen with the "RECOVERY NOT SELINUX ENFORCING" message at the top left.
Using Vol- + Power to get into Download mode causes it to boot back into the same screen. Holding down Power by itself or Power+Vol+ doesn't do anything at all.
Is there any fix for this?
try to hold vol- + power + home
i have the same problem.won't work with vol-+power+home
first use volume down and power for soft reset, when screen goes black
use volume up , home and power for recovery or
use volume down, home and power for download mode.
Hi All,
I recently updated my phone's BL and CP using Odin since I wanted to update my version of Superman rom to the latest. I think I might have done it in the wrong order though? (flashed bootloader before attempting to update firmware)
My phone is now stuck on the Samsung logo with the "Recovery is not seaandroid enforcing" at the top. I can get it to restart by holding the Vol Down + Power button but can't get it into Recovery / Download Mode it just keeps rebooting into the samsung logo!! I tried a quick Vol Down + Power followed by Vol Down + Power + Home but it doesn't work and keeps going back to the samsung logo
Is there any other way I can get this to boot into download mode so that I can flash an older version of the bootloader using odin?

Press (Vol up + Vol down + Power button) and when screen goes off quickly press (Vol down + Home button + Power button). Repeat the process until you see the green screen! It worked for me.

One hour later I got this damn thing into Download Mode!! Phew...
I just kept the Vol Down + Power + Home buttons pressed while it kept rebooting itself (I was letting go of the buttons and pressing them again when I saw the screen turn off which wasn't working)
Not sure why the latest BL bricked my phone?! I've flashed one version before and it's now working again.

If you are using PH* bootloader and trying to root the system, you should only use TWRP 3.0.2.3 and best choice would be SuperSU 2.76.. Glad to hear it booted up at last!
So far I've yet to see someone truly brick an S7 since you'd need to replace the bootloader and it wont even flash a new bootloader until it's fully transfered and verified. So no worries there should always be a way out.
you can always go back to stock via Smartswitch and Rescue option.... all you need is your modelnumber and S/N.....
Phew, just went through the same problem, thanks a lot for help, guys!
I rooted my phone yesterday, so today i wanted to install twrp, but when i turn off my phone and tried to go unto recovery menu the logo just turn green and and the screen went black. I tried to start the download mode but is no answer, so i thought that the phone was bricked, but when is bricked you can access to the recovery mode, all i can do is press volume-down + power-btn and there i got the samsung turn on logo but then i have the same green logo and the black screen again.
Somebody can help me pls!!!
Try this: Connect usb with pc. Hit volume down + power button till screen goes on and at the same time screen goes on release power button and hit and hold volume up and down button, this should get you into download mode and flash stock firmware with odin
