My daughters s3 mini has stopped working.
When you hold down the power button it gives a tiny vibration and the samsung logo comes on the screen, after that it goes black and then goes through the same process again (small vibration, s3 logo and model, then clack again)...
It seems to just loop on this over and over again...
I cannot get into the boot menu but can get into the download menu so have followed instructions and rooted it in odin... however, although that was successful) it still wont boot.
I am thinking there is an issue with the boot sequesnce?
I would love if someone has any other suggestions?
Thank you.
Seems like you got a bootloop..
Try flashing the official firmware again using ODIN.
All the firmwares van be found here : http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/

Quick thing to try. When you hold down the vol down to go into download mode and it asks if you're sure you want to go into download mode, choose CANCEL instead and see if it boots. That sometimes knocks it out of the loop.

Hi
I cannot get my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus (GT-P6200) to boot in recovery mode.
I tried the following:
1) Switch off the Tab.
2) Press the Power + Volume Up buttons simultaneously until I see the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus" screen, then release the Power button and keep pressing the Volume Up button. The tab then get's stuck on the Samsung screen, even if I release the Volume Up button. It stays on this screen indefinitely, only option is to reboot by keeping the power button pressed for 5 seconds.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!
same issue

Same problem
any help ???
On which verison thar ur on???? have u tried to wiping data in stock recovery
??
same problem I'm having with my Samsung Gt-p6200, it just boot-loops to the "samsung galaxy tab 7.0" boot loading screen and hangs.. these happened after i flashed my firmware from stock honeycomb to jellybean(the austria firmware, i think that's been posted in this forum).
here's what happened before the problem:
-I flash the stock honeycomb firmware with the jellybean one that i found here..
-after i flashed using ODIN, the new firmware works great, i was even informed that i have free 50GB worth of dropbox space,
the file was named P6200XXMC3_P6200OXAMC3_ATO
- I have used it for a day, until the battery drains and i have to charge, but when i opened it again, it already does this "boot loop" problem
- i have tried flashing CWM with ODIN(as i've read here somewhere that it might help) and do that wipe cache and factory reset thing but that didnt help solved the problem.
hope anyone could help me, im also thinking flashing it back to it's original stock firmware but I dont have a backup of that and I dont know where to get one, I've been searching the net for two days for that stock rom but all i found are the new jellybean ones and some old ones but is uploaded to hotfile which is now deleted or locked.
I hope you guys could help me out and thanks in advance!

Hello guys! Im also having this same issue.
*Using the same firmware that was posted here in xda because i was having trouble downloading those official jellybean firmwares
*The battery got drained
then if i charge it, it will remain in a "blank slightly illuminated screen"
* after a few munutes, the tab gets really warm.
*but if i dont charge it, it will get drained again because it keeps on turning on itself back to this time to the "galaxy tab plus screen"
I cant access recovery mode.
I can access odin mode and can flash successfully with cwm or the same firmware back but the problem still persist.
I havent tried other firmwares though.
4 days passed already and i cant figure this out
Please help
So I had this happen to me yesterday, where it rebooted randomly on me, only to freeze on the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus screen. I had custom recovery (TWRP) don't know if that matters, but I was able to access it by holding Power+UpVol but keep it held. It would freeze on the same spot but since I was still holding the keys it reboots a second time and this time it would go into recovery.
I then wipes cache and dalvik, no go. Sadly did a full wipe. Still no going past the tab plus text. So I flash MF1 official 4.1.2 firmware (I was previously on 4.1.2 UK official) still no go. Put in latest 2.8 TWRP and booted into it still with some trouble as I mentioned above. Did another wipe and it then hung on blank screen or so I thought. Took a long time to boot and after a long time, and the Android is upgrading message, by some weird chance I was on the MF1 official rom but all my apps settings everything was saved.
Working 100% now and I still don't really know what the hell happened. But if this helps anyone then all the better!
My samsung p6200 is woking almost fine but i am not able to go into the download mode when i press volume down button and power the screen is at samsung logo it stays for a while and then it restarts from there,its the stock rom that's messd up i belive any help how to go into downlod mose other way would b apriciated
My Relay wont boot into recovery mode. Whenever I hold the Volume-Up + Home + Power, it turns on then it says on the top left corner a small blue colored message saying "RECOVERY BOOTING..." and then it goes to the "Galaxy S Relay from T-Mobile" screen and then black screen. Nothing happens, it doesnt boot into recovery but it can turn on and function well with the OTA Jelly Bean 4.1.2 update as well as boot into Download mode. I have rooted it before when It was still ICS 4.0.4 and I guess I didnt unroot it correctly.
A couple of days ago, I heard about the Jelly Bean update, which I wanted, so I used Kies to update. I connected my phone while in Download mode and Kies did its thing and my phone was unrooted when it booted up and had Jelly Bean. It worked perfectly, but it couldnt boot into recovery mode. I dont think it's a huge problem to not boot into recovery, but to me, I feel safer having it.
Is there a way to fix this using just Samsung Kies? Is there a way to flash that recovery or something using Odin? If so, where can I find it and how do I do it?
Thanks in advance!

dear OP why cant you learn the rules?
Were you able to apply the OTA update with "no recovery"? It sounds like you might have stock and your screen doesn't work in recovery, or perhaps you're recovery is just plain broken. Either way, reflashing recovery with heimdall or odin might do the trick.
This question belongs in Q and A or general, not development.
I was rooted with cwm as my recovery and tried to unroot yesterday. I uninstalled Superuser and factory reset. Apparently, I "unrooted" wrong. Then I applied the OTA via Kies. I think my recovery is just plain broken. Where can I find and download the recovery for the Relay? And how do I flash it?

This is not in the right place, the other thread is.
Don't make multiple threads in the same place of the same topic. That's called spamming

As soon as you see the blue letters for recovery booting, take your fingers off all the buttons. It will then go to recovery. I had the same thing happen to me yesterday. If you continue holding the buttons, it will do what you described.

Wow. Thank you so much! Before, I would have to hold the buttons until the actual recovery menu comes up. I didn't know you just had to hold it until the blue letters came up. Once again, thank you very much!

My phone is currently NOT rooted. I attempted to root it when I first got it and almost bricked it so when I got it back to working I just left it. I've had my phone over a year and have recently over the past few months had issues with the charging port and batteries even holding a charge. Bought extended life slim batteries and a charger due to that issue. Then just yesterday I was using facebook on my phone and it randomly rebooted and wouldn't stop boot looping. Only way I've stopped it thus far is to take out the battery.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
i have a galaxy note edge, but couple of days back when i unpluged my phone from the charger and tried to turn it on it would not boot up properly;even if it did it would turn itself off at different times. so i had decided to flash stock rom, thinking this could solve the problem. i downloaded stock rom from sammobile, flash it via odin,and it was successful;but when the phone rebooted with "recovery booting" on the top left of the screen then the screen went black. to turn the the device on again i have to pull the battery out and put back in after 10-15 seconds. and now whenever i try to turn the device on, it boots up with "recovery booting'' on the top left of the screen but goes black as soon as the samsung logo shows up. i don't know what's causing this problem.
if anyone out there could help me get out of this problem,i would greatly appreciate it
thanks in advanced

but i need a solution for my galaxy note edge.
you have the incorrect recovery flashed, double check it and reflash. hold home+vol down+power then press volume up when prompted. use odin from pc to flash the correct recovery.

I flashed stock rom, but that didn't help; I still can't get the phone to turn on properly. The phone turns off as soon as the Samsung logo shows up, I am on stock recovery.
I flashed stock rom and it loads successfully,the phone reboots with "recovery booting" on the top left of the screen,but the screen goes black as soon as the text "galaxy note edge powered by Android" shows up.
I'm desperately trying to find a way out of this problem, so please help me.
best regards
Hello,
I accidentally dropped my Galaxy s6. When i picked it up, the screen was blank.
Fearing the worst i rebooted the phone. The screen works fine when in recovery/download mode, but when the phone boots normally, it doesn't show anything. The odd thing is that the when it boots normally, the phone appears to be ok... i can press the Vol+ and Vol- and get the usual beep I would expect.
In recovery mode the screen is fine. I can see the bright greeny blue glow with white writing etc...
Please can anyone advise on some tech support for this? I can;t see that the screen is broken becuase it works fine when in downlaod.recoivery.
Help me Obi Wan! You're my only hope!

Hello.... thanks for the reply. I flashed stock firmware and I can turn the phone on.... see the samsung logo load and it gets to the first welcome / customise screen and freezes.
its very odd.
I successfully rooted my S8+ using the Sampwned method, it was buggy and I lost the ability to use wifi-calling so I decided to revert back to stock firmware.
I downloaded stock AT&T Firmware from Samsmobile website. Went into odin flashed the firmware, it ran everything successfully however when the phone went to reboot,
it go stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy S8+" Screen.
Below where it says Samsung Galaxy s8+,
there is an Icon of an open Lock, with the word "Custom" below it.
And below that it says "Powered by Android"
I am not able to do anything from this screen at all!
I can't get back into download mode, I can't boot into safe mode. I cant hard reset.
Nothing works for me at all.
What can I do to fix this?
that happened the first time i rooted. whet i did was:
1) hold the power and volume down buttons together until screen shuts off,
2) immediately after (right when the screen goes black) let go quickly and hold bixby button, volume down, and the power button.
it should boot into download mode. i had to do it a few times before it registered, if not hold power and volume up buttons until it reaches that upload scrren and you should be able to get to recovery. hope it helps. goodluck

Let the battery run out then charge and try to boot
