Download mode not working anymore!!! PLEASE help

Hello
I downloaded the [ROM-ODIN]T959VUVKB5 Stock + Root
but it will not re-install all the Bloatware on my phone
I want to try the [ROM-ODIN] Deodexed KB5 Enhanced v1.5 rom now
However, I just can't enter Download Mode anymore
If I press Volume Up + Volume Down + HOME + Power button, I can enter the recovery mode or whatever it's called
If I press Volume Down + Home Button + Power Button the phone boots normally
I do remember accessing Download Mode before, when I install the Stock + Root ROM
At this point I'm so frustrated I am just going to return the phone to the store and cancel the whole T-Mobile contract
Samsung Galaxy S 4G was supposedly the BEST OF THE BEST but with 200MB out of stock I just can't use this phone too much, since a few apps use 20MB per app (Google Earth, Adobe Air...)
Anyway, I want to reinstall all the Bloatware, so I'd appreciate if someone can tell me how to restore this phone to factory settings, with all the bloatware and all that crap
I appreciate your responses

pop the bat out, remove the sim. put bat back on.
Vol UP+DOWN+PLUG IN USB

Shut down your phone. pull the battery out. connect your tether cable to the phone and USB to computer. start oden, put tar file in PDA box. don't change any other settings. Put your phone in download mode by pressing both up/down volume buttons (not Power) and insert the battery. once in download mode, click on Start on oden. As for the bloatware, you are going to get whatever apps that are in the tar file. I think Some of the bloat has been removed. Not sure what, but it seems most of it is still there. I think DriveSmart is gone

THANK YOU BROTHER
I was 20 minutes away from going to T-Mobile
Ok, so why is this procedure different from other procedures?
To recap
1) Shut down your phone
2) Start ODIN and select TAR file
3) Press Volume Up/Volume UP simultaneously
4) Insert battery
5) Click Start in Odin
Now my question, in Step 3, after I press Volume Up/Volume Down, and I insert the battery, should I press the power button or not?
I appreciate your help, however, I have a new problem now

This thing is not progressing at all
I remember the first time I did that I saw some progress both in the phone and in the program
Now I see SOME progress in the program, but that progress stopped a WHILE ago
Now the phone tells me
Downloading...
Do not turn off Target!!!
Now what should I do?
I would REALLY appreciate if you can continue helping me please since you seem to have experience with this

The Three fingered salute Vol up/down/power is a master reset to get back to original image file. When you mess-up the image you have to recover some other way. So far with the SGS4G the only way that is working until CWM is fixed is the oden process. It appears that oden is kind of a quirky program. Sometimes it locks up and you have to try again. So you need to have to give it time to work and if it fails you have to try again. Master reset uses files that are on the memory on the phone. Oden uses files on an external source an pushes them to the phone. To enable the push the phone has to be in download mode to receive the files. There is a device you can purchase to plug into the phone that will put the phone into download mode. It cost about $10. Its kinda handy if you are doing this alot, but removing the battery pushing both volume buttons and inserting the battery gets you there. You can also remove and reinsert the battery then plug in the tethering cable while pushing the buttons also as Krylon360 has pointed out.

Yeah if I don't see a progress bar in the phone, I'll just reboot
I finally have flashed the Samsung Galaxy S 4G to two ROMS
1) T959VKB5-Custom
2) KB5Deodexv15
I hope at least one of those can return the Bloatware
I want to recover the bloatware because it was located in the folder
/system/
So it doesn't occupies space in the folder /data/

1) T959VKB5-Custom is a better ROM since it restored Drive Smart and Think Office
The other ROM has nothing
I'm glad I finally discovered how to insert ROMs into my Samsung Galaxy S 4G

Glad to hear you got it working. You may be able to find some of the apps you are looking for that are missing. Look around XDA I've seen some posts of others asking for some of the missing apps. There are some programs like Android Commander that can install APKs from your computer if you can download them there. You might be able to find some of those apps on the market possibly.

Wow thanks for that taking out the batterry attaching usb chord pressing vol buttons re attaching battery trick for download mode. I tried EVERYTHING else to try and get into download mode after I flashed 2.3.3 to my vibrant with out bootloaders.Was almost gonna Chuck phone against wall.

Yeah...echoing Beef's question - you know you're in the 4g forum right? You shouldn't be flashing 2.3.3 on a SGS4g. If you're having issues flashing a vibrant (not the 4g), try posting in their forums.

Hi, when i tried rooting gb 2.3.3 with dsexton702's method i have the download mode problem. I tried all the methods possible here (except 4th in my case) but it did not work. It's 3.00 am here and I'm in panic my only way is to get that device because i'm in Turkey and no T-mobile here.
So, please tell me more about the thing you mentioned may be i can find it in here.
Please somebody help me!!

I think it may be because you have gb. Something to do with the boot loaders. There are a few other threads about download mode in gingerbread on the development section.

If you are having issues getting into DL mode after trying to go to GB, this method will likely not help you. This will get you to the recovery menu (blue) or CWM (Red or Orange) depending what you have installed on your phone. To get into recovery press the vol UP/DN/Power then release the buttons just before it cycles off again. I let it cycle once or twice so I can time when to release the buttons. I just count to about 4 or 5 then release the buttons. If you tried to install GB you will have to get into DL mode and flash the phone using Oden again using another ROM such as the KD1 ROM.
EDIT. To get into DL mode I use the method #3. Shut down phone. Pull battery out. Get oden setup on your computer by putting a Rom into the PDA box (Such as PDA_KD1.tar.md5). Put battery back in the phone. Hold the vol/up/dn buttons only. Then plug in your USB cable into your phone. That should put you in DL mode. Oden will detect your phone and light up yellow in the top first box and indicate which COM port you are on. If you can get that far press START and flash away. What you will likely have to do is flash the KC1 ROM with the Hawk_Sidekick_VibrantPlus_831.pit. That should bring your system back so you can flash other ROMs. Check This Post for directions on using this method. This is one way people have been recovering from GB problems. The top part explains how to get KC1 ROM installed. You can flash the KD1 ROM after that if you want, Just don’t use the Pit file or check repartition when going to KD1.

Thanx for your all help here guys! The next day i woke up early and my sister was about to leave home to do some walking, i told the situation to her and when i get back from toilet my phone was in download mode!! she thinks she pressed only vol down button and plugged the usb then the battery. I think the gingerbread download mode button combination can be different than the froyo. I wont try to get into download mode for a while not to have more adrenaline but as soon as i test and confirm i will post it here.

[A51x] Key shortcuts (recovery, bootloader, factory reset)

Don't recall seeing this yet on the forum, but here's a list of "keyboard shortcuts" to boot your device into bootloader, factory reset it or boot the recovery.
Recovery:
WARNING: if you have stock recovery and an update.zip in your external sd it will start to flash immediately
Volume- (two dots) and Poweron
Bootloader:
WARNING: this is very similar to factory reset, which will start immediately
Volume- (two dots) and Poweron and then toggle the rotation switch on and off a few times
JB BootLoader:
Boot with Volume- and PowerOn, First vibration => Release PowerOn, Second vibration => Release Vol- and press Vol+
Factory Reset:
WARNING: reset will start immediately
Volume+ (one dot) and Poweron and then toggle the rotation switch on and off a few times
APX Mode (for NVFlash):
WARNING: use APX mode only when you know what you are doing!
Hold Volume- (one dot) and Volume+ (one dot) and press reset button & release volume keys
Screen will stay black and power led will not light up. The only way to check APX mode is enabled is to plug the tablet to the PC and see if the APX device is there.
Regards,
Nika.

Recovery is using [volume-] + power ;-)

oh silly me, I keep mixing them up. Modified them now... glad I added the warnings :silly:

Indeed, they are still wrong
vol-/power = recovery
vol-/power/rotation lock toggle = fastboot
vol+/power/toggle rotation = hard reset (that one was right )

Yeah, just figured that out myself. Sorry. Changed it now

You can add the APX mode :
hold vol+ & vol-
press [reset] once
release volume keys
Screen will stay black and power led will not lit. The only way to check APX mode is enabled is to plug the tablet to the PC and see if the APX device is there.

Good one. Added it. Alternatively you can also restore an invalid boot image, and brick your device, or something like that to get into apx automatically

That would be too easy. I have done this in a more
interesting way after corrupting /data by the CM5 wipe and trying to repartition internal mem :

Pls, excuse me for any inconvenience, I'm not much of a poster here, so the forum didn't allow me to post an external link and the attachment got automatically resized. Going to take super-regulatory measures and override the rules
I soft-bricked the phone with the CWM Recovery 5.0 Wipe, as I mentioned before, after only 3 months of using a rooted device, while trying to get a custom ROM installed to get usb camera driver working, found out that the /data partition has been corrupted by the old CWM ver, read the partition table size somewhere on the net for A510 and tried to repartition the SD to 12GB as it should be, but noticed the 32GB SD/MMC size mark in the output of the parted tool right after I entered the 12800 as the size. Was a little bit shocked, tried to apply some other's tablet partition sizes in the end, and this eventually bricked the device to black screen
And yeah, I did pay for the 16GB ver, the receipt said it's 16GB, the box has 32GB print label, the device has been partitioned as 16GB, I took it apart and read the memory label it was 32GB, if I am not mistaken, I assembled it with no issues and then I was able to partition it AS 32GB, as you can see on the screenshot. All I wanted was my device back to life, but out of curiosity couldn't stand trying to get extra 16GB for free. Curiosity killed the cat
The device now can get into both: APX with both volume down and reset AND into a 1-2 sec boot up with no vibe or screen light up after a short single power button press which is enough to get detected by a PC and power off immediately!
All my attempts to bring it back to life have failed, there is simply no custom software for it yet! NVFLASH was not able to do anything with it either. Acer support told me they do not have any access to give me a temporary login and password for the Acer Download Tool which would save the world for that day, and the device has my corp data within, so I can't handle it to any repair shop and it's just resting on the shelf as a bunch of antiques
Acer, I think this is a bit unfair, so I am putting an EXTRA effort into this...
hxxp://img687.imageshack.us/img687/2507/deadbeef.png
Thanks in advance to whomever will look into the issues with internal memory and perhaps bring a second life to my and such other devices on the planet!

I have to take off my hat in front of the Acer support.
After visiting an office of my local authorized repair center and explaining to them that I cracked the screen in halves, then plugged in a keyboard and killed my tablet with CWM wipe and later manually killed stock file table which finally put the device into a hard-brick state, lost my warranty because I disassembled it and, as a matter of fact, will not be willing to pay the price of a new and a better tablet for the replacement of the screen and the motherboard if they are not be able to recover the software part, I crossed my fingers and took a break.
I gave them a call two weeks after and got and answer that they were awaiting for a spare part, couldn't tell me right away which one. Taken into account that they have already had the screen by the time of my visit, I started worrying if they got me right and sent them an email to make sure if they were waiting for the screen instead of the motherboard and everything is fine with the software part.
Here's their reply:
"The screen has been replaced.
Motherboard has been ordered on warranty, since it is not Your fault.
You will be paying only for the screen replacement, i.e. $200.
As a minus, you will have to wait until we receive the motherboard.
Are you comfortable with this?"
OMG, they have a heart of gold... :good:

Hi.
I just got an A510 with a broken USB port. It didn't charge and the owner even sold the charger. I opened it, connected 2 wires at the battery so I charge it now. My only problem is, that I would like to use Android 4.3/4.4 and I don't know how to do it without an USB port. I tried Framaroot, but no luck.
You mention in the first post, that when one boots into recovery and there's an update.zip on the sdcard, then it installs it. Is it possible to root it this way?
Thanks in advance!

If it can go to recovery, i am sure it can go to download mode also. Try again. Sometimes it doesn't work. Remove the battery and reinsert it and try again. Don't panic just yet.
Press and Hold Volume down. Keep Holding. At the same time press and hold Home (hardware) key. KEEP HOLDING BOTH. And then press and hold the power key. HOLD ON TO ALL THREE. Does it go to download mode?

[Q] Galaxy Tab 2 .7" Boot Loop

Hi there everyone.
I have a Galaxy tab 2 7" which has developed a problem.
Its stuck in a continuous boot loop when both connected to the computer or unplugged
I have changed the battery as I thought it had not been charged for a while but that has made no difference.
When plugged in the battery symbol shows then goes out
Repreated
When unpluged the Samsung logo shows then goes out
Repeated
I have tried booting into recovery mode which work but then the tab reboots and starts the Samsung Boot loop again
It has never been flashed so Im confused as what to do because the boot loop is continuous until the battery drains.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Cheers

Hello ashwin 007
I have tried to get into Download mode which i have done but then the tab reboots and leaves this mode and goes back to the Samsung logo continuously.
Therefore cannot seem to reflash firmware this way
Any other options or is it a dead dodo?

Try this
Put your phone to charge then keep the power pressed till it shutdown
It should not reboot if u put it in charge
Then unplug charge and then
Keep the volume down pressed and then the power at the same time
U should go to the menu like that picture above
When u see it leave the buttons
Then press volume up
It should get u to the download screen
Then go to the sammobile link above and install a software for your tab
Then load it in Odin as above then press start
--------------------------*-*-*-*-&*8*&&*-8*9*8-%8**-6
If u already have a software u don't need to dop the above
Just
Put it to charge and turn it off
Unplug
Volume up+power till it opens
Wait for the recovery
Wipe data and ...
Wipe cache(not neccecery)
Then reboot

Hi there peeps,
just like to say thanks for the help so far and apologies if i'm not making myself very clear.
I tried as you suggest but when plugged in it shows battery symbol with no charge on constant reboot loop
When NOT t shows samsung logo on constant reboot loop
The Tab does not switch off altogether, it always shows either battery or samsung logo
it remains on some kind off boot loop until battery drains.
Once drained and plugged in again shows boot loop again
I can press power and vol down which takes it to the screen pictured on previous post.
If i take my fingers of all buttons when this happens the tab WILL reboot back to the Samsung boot loop after approx 2 seconds
So i can get to the option screen but cannot press vol up to continue because the tab reboots automatically.

Samsung can only save you......all the best!!

Does kies detect your tablet?
Since you have original firmware, may reflashing it again could help.

what happend with u ?

same problem here! but i made it boot!
I have the same problem.
As a matter of fact my device is in boot loop all the time...
What i did is that i cracked open the device... and i tried everything... disconnected the batterry, pressed the power button down for many seconds with and without the batterry... nothing...
After all these, i started disconnecting stuff from the pcb to see what is stopping the system from booting (in the loop it showed that the battery was empty. but it wasn't. when it booted it had 70%)
I disconnected the power button molex and boom! manual recovery mode!
But without any buttons what can you really do.
The moment i put the molex back on and navigated through the selections... after 3 seconds it started looping again...
One of the times, i was fast and i pressed the system restart, then disconnected the molex again. BOOM ! device restarted...
Once in the device started i thought i would plug in the buttons molex back... then the power down menu popped out and ... boot loop started again ...
Now it is still opened in main screen, without buttons connected, and i'm afraid to plug them back in
[edit]
When i disconnect the buttons molex ribbon it boots up normally.
Every time i push the buttons molex ribbon back in it goes in loop.

SOLVED ! ! !
BOOT LOOP... SOLVED ! ! !
I took a cotton bud, dipped in alcohol, then squeezed for the excess liquid to run out (local "Cretan Raki" made from grapes like Italian "Grappa" you could also use vodka), and i cleaned the contacts on the outside of the plastic molex connector of the ribbon.
Then cleaned the area very well, with a dry cotton bud, before reconnecting.
It seams that the dust particles had created a some sort of short circuit. (the device is clean inside! that impresses me the most)
Mine works now!

I am not sure how to install CWM,i am actually trying to do that too,but i can help you unbrick your phone.
1. Download Xperia Companion and install it http://support.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/xperia-companion/
2. Run it,and go to software repair,follow the steps until the program requests you to connect the usb to your computer
3. When you get to that part,hold volume UP and the Power button for around 10 seconds and your phone should vibrate 3 times
4. When your phone vibrates,stop holding that buttons and connect your phone to usb while holding volume DOWN and Power button and wait for it to repair your phone
This will delete all of your data but there is no other way(or i haven't heard of it)
Good luck unbricking your phone!

didnt help

i did it exactly like you said but rly nothing happened yes phone vobrates 3 times after i hold volume down and power button connect to pc for 5 min and nothing ... should i try it more time or its time to throw the phone ?

when xperia companion wants you to plug phone in usb do that vibrating thing and let the buttons go after the third vibrate and wait for 5 seconds and then connect phone to pc with volume down and power button and when you connect it let the buttons go and your phone should turn on the green led light(or some other color,idk,it is green on my phone) and follow the instructions that xperia companion tells you to do

EDIT: nevermind,sorry,my bad,after the vibrations thing hold only volume down and connect it,that should work

did you fix it?

sorry for the delay i was little bit outside of internet connection cause lot of work and didnt had time for nothing nope nothing happened still the same thing...

are you sure you did everything same as i told you?
when you come to the vibrating part and you need to plug in your phone to computer hold ONLY VOLUME DOWN BUTTON,without the power,it was my mistake,you only need to hold the volume down,and then connect the phone to pc while still holding the volume down and you should see a green led light on your phone and then let the volume button go and just follow the setup

If your phone is connecting by Flash mode (green LED and turns off) you may use unofficial flashtool and select the XF icon. You have to select your phone name and model (Xperia E3 and D2203). Then choose any rom (the latest one is 18.5.C.0.25) from any country and click on the information next to Available Firmware adn Download it.
Back in the flashtool open lighting icon, select Flashmode. A list will display, select your rom and check all the squares.
Wait. Some time later it will say to connect your phone, do that and tell me if works.
