Thanks for your response, Aramil:
I've tried multiple times to:
1. Boot to recovery mode - Black screen, only the two soft buttons light up.
2. Boot to download mode - Black screen, only the two soft buttons light up.
3. Turn off phone and connect USB Jig - No response.
4. Removed battery and then replaced it while simultaneously pressing volume down+middle key+power on - No Response.
SOLVED!!
Alrighty. I solved it myself!!
After more than a week of very limited help from members, I stumbled upon the solution to this issue.
The problem was with the bootloader. I flashed a stock bootloader, and all my issues were fixed!!
Thanks to those who attempted to help!!
Any suggestions on how I can get more people to post replies? Almost 200 people saw my post, but just Aramil replied! I must say I felt a bit letdown by the community. Anyways, Thanks Aramil!

no recovery or download modes and irregular bootup
I have this trouble also and think it is a bootloader problem. Rinuvimal says problem solved by flashing a stock bootloader. How is that done please?
My problem is:
1. I think it started when I bought a USB jig. To use this I needed to flash an old bootloader which I did through Odin.
2. Now I cannot access CWM by using up volume, home and power buttons. Nor can I access download mode using down volume, home and power.
3. Inserting the usb jig does not now load the download mode screen.
4.From off, when I press power, it does not go through usual boot process (nothing showing on screen) but after the soft key lights come on I seem to have booted up and can then use phone as normal.
My settings show Android 4.0.3, Baseband Version i9100BVKJ4, Kernel version i9100XXLP6-CL72050 and Build number lidroid-resurrection remix ics 9.4 black edition by westcrip XXLPH.
Can anyone help me to solve this problem please?

Help! Can't come into Download Mode! SGS+

Hallo people. I’m at first time here. I’m from Germany and I’m sorry directly for my bad English.
I have a trouble with my Samsung Galaxy S Plus and I hope anybody can help me.
I have installed the FeaMod Recovery on my SGS+. After them my SGS+ started everytime in FeaMod Recovery. OK, famous problem, but I can’t get started my Phone in Download Mode to! I fixed this problem with the JIG like this one:
forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Plus/GT-I9001#Soft-Bricked
I flashed an Stock ROM completly new. Now i get started my device normaly with Stock ROM and Stock Recovery but I still can't get my device put into the Download Mode (with the 3 button way).
If I try this, I get the Samsung lable on my screen, than two or three glowing pixels in the left top corner for a second. Then come blackscreen (i think i get my phone shortly off) and then comes the Samsung logo again. And this loops.
Here is a short video to anderstend better what I mean:

In fact here is a thread in your phones Q&A forum: Ask me anything, i've got the answer. Post it there and someone will try to help you with more device specific assistance.

[Q] Bad CWM flash, can't boot to anything

I've been running Slim Bean 2.7 with the latest Gapps package (released 10/04). I was having trouble switching between 3g and 4g so i thought I would reinstall SB and Gapps. To do this, I started by flashing CWM Touch but i apparently had a bad download. When i tried to boot into recovery after flashing CWM, I found that my phone flashed the Samsung screen with the blue text in the top left corner but then flashed off and stopped responding. I tried removing the battery but it continues to do the same thing. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help.
Can you get to download mode? If so, odin flash back to stock, take the ota, root and unlock and try again. I've been using the new TWRP and its fantastic so far.

Fortunately since you get a boot splash you should be able to recover with Odin, as suggested. Always always check md5 on ROM and recovery downloads.
I appreciate the quick repsonses everyone. It seems that I was able to interrupt the bootloop (I'm not sure if I'm using that correctly) by booting into download mode, restarting, and booting normally. I'm poorly versed in development, but I'm still trying to learn more about the ins and outs of my phone so I run into trouble from time to time. These forums are life-savers. Thanks again.

Phone Unresponsive

I was running CWM with Cyanogenmod 522 today when my phone started acting up. During the day, the power button was acting funny. When pressed, it would go to black screen but then instantly pop back to lockscreen. I never got that problem fixed. Recovery would never boot no matter how I tried to boot it up. A few minutes ago, I tried rebooting the phone. It turned off and now no matter what I do, I cant get any response from my phone. No vibrations or anything. Upon plugging into my pc, it tries to install the driver: QHUSB_DLOAD but fails shortly. How can I get my phone working again? Please help!
Can you get into odin mode? If not, its probably a hardware issue. Try and get a replacement

[Completed] Stuck on "Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge" boot screen - Pic of Download screen in post

Stuck on "Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge" boot screen - Pic of Download screen in post
I literally have no idea what to do. I've tried holding volume down, home button and power but it won't go into download mode. I had a previous ROM on it but tried changing to Phoenix and it's done this.
I'm literally dumb as **** and need help from people who can help me.
Any help appreciated. Cheers!!
edit1 - Just got into download mode by holding said buttons for around 2 minutes. I'm currently on Odin and it will only let me add an "AP" file. So yeah, still stuck on what to do.
edit 2- http://imgur.com/a/jclSE This comes up on download screen.
Copy and pasted this from S7 section. Please just need help badly.
