I can only boot into recovery, I can not boot into download mode, nor can I boot into any ROM that I flash. Most recently, I was operating the most recent PAC MAN ROM. I am unsure how to get back into anything. Is this thing totally bricked?? Any help would be great. I am using clockwork mod recovery. Please ehlp
anyone???

When you plug your device into your computer and open up odin does it at least say added!!
Also are you sure you are entering download (odin mode) correctly
Are you trying to go into odin mode while plugged into your computer .. if so try without the computer (unplugged)
Thanks
EDIT: Can you get into recovery mode ?

No. I can enter recovery only by the button method. I also can briefly enter download mode with the green android guy for like 3 seconds and then the phone shuts off. I think the bootloader is bricked. It is weird though, I can get into recovery. When attempting to use Odin, usb doesnt appear to work either. cant even charge the phone

Since you can get into recovery .. can you try to tell it to boot to the boot loader or boot screen .. i forgot what the option was .. also can you post your specs like
Galaxy s3
Baseband
Whatever .. more people might want to know this information as well

How are you on clockwork mod recovery when ML1 Baseband / Bootloader is unlockable ?
Are you sure its ML1 ?
Also have you tried to install the universal drivers for your computer so the device manager can recognize it at least ?

I dont have that option in the cwm recovery i am in. I believe the cwm im on is 6.0.4.3. Also, when the phone is pulled in, it will not turn on at all. Everytime I put the battery in, it tries to boot, i see the samsung screen, then it goes to the blue android guy for like a tenth of a second and the phone shuts off. Same thing with download mode. It attempts to go to it....I see all of the info in the top left hand corner of the screen and the phone shuts off.

If you have a bad cable change it
If something else is going wrong you can call Verizon and play dumb .. instead of calling Assurian you should call the regular total care protection .. say you have a hardware issue and that you where charging it and then all of a sudden something happened
* You never know .. its all up to you .. nothing else you really can do
1. Recovery
2. Download mode
3. Try adb reboot boot loader
4. adb reboot download
5. New Charger
6. Warranty swap
There is a good channel on irc
irc.freenode.net and the channel is #verizons3 .. there is live support there

These are ADB commands. Download "Terminal Emulator" and type in the following command to boot into download mode from within your rom:
su
reboot download
Edit: Added that you must grant "su" for the command to work. Just type it in.

I was in the middle of flashing a kernal when my computer froze up on me. My phone now has 3 little icons (what looks to be a flipphone, a yellow triangle with an ! in the middle, and a computer). I had this happen to me with my captivate a while back and i remember it being a simple but different button combination than normal to get into download mode. Is anyone aware of how I can get there? Please help!

im aware of this method as this is how I usually do it, but that combination is working. Thats the problem
That Phone-!-PC screen is a form of download mode. Flash the kernel again in this mode. If the program hangs or doesn't recognize the phone, reset or restart the program (Odin or Heimdall), shut the phone off, and put it back in this mode. Then try again.

This happened to me a while back too after a one-click heimdall suddenly stopped ..
I managed to get out of the phone-!-pc screen by using this one-click unbrick: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15330252
after that you should be able to get into download mode in the usual way and go back to stock

Is the phone completely unresponsive: no access to download mode, recovery or operating system?
im stuck in the loading animation of ICS right now and my phone wont start, since my power button is broken i cant boot into recovery to wipe cache... is there some way i can boot into recovery console without the power button? can i used odin to start into recovery console?
please help!
if your phone is off the only way to connect it to your pc is booting it(bootloader or normally).. so power button is the only way. I was using android sdk and the toolkit but I hope there is a program for this situation even if I don't think so
instead if you can start your phone in bootloader mode but when you boot it loops in the starting animation means there is something wrong with your rom/kernel and you have to flash something new (you can do it in fastboot mode using one of the two programs I've mentioned before)
However I've not understand the situation fully... if your power button is broken how can you be in the loading animation??? :/

i can restart the phone by putting a USB or power cord into the phone, i cant turn it on with the power button.. because of that is why i cant get to recovery console, but i can get into the bootloader screen, but none of my buttons work there... also i got a jig USB, so i can get into download mode, but im missing the files to use ODIN to re-image the phone...

I'm not familiar with odin but if you can boot your phone in fastboot mode I think you can flash every file or make a wipe from your pc like with sdk for example.. you have just to search for the commands.. sorry if I can't be helpful

I have never used Odin with Nexus S, never needed that. As you are able to boot, you may look at the following thread to get the script for rooting your phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544940
Remember, this process will unlock the boot loader if it is locked and unlocking boot loader will delete all files, even from the internal SD card. So you may consider having a complete backup on your computer.
I make a little trick to fix this case. I disassembled my phone for get motherboard with button in my hands. After it I "played" with power button: push, sway from side to side and kick it by finder nail. After all assembled phone and now the power button works fine.
Hi there...it was mere some hours after i got my new moto g...i installed next launcher and pressed "always" instead of "just once" as i pressed the home button. The phone restarted immidiately and is stuck at logo screen forever. Now i tried flashing stock rom through fast boot method but the process gets stuck at "waiting for device" at the first command. That might be because USB debugging is disabled and i can't enable it as the phone doesn't show up anything. i checked the drivers several times but didn't work out.

If your bootloader is unlocked you could use fastboot to fastboot flash a recovery. Then do a factory reset.

Hello,
I tried to update my note 10.1 gt-8000 today using the instructions from droid opinion website. I did not remove any partition or stuff. Just uploaded the rom Image in AP, selected auto reboot and F reset time and this i. but when the phone went to restart, it wont start again. Its been 30 minutes and phone is still off. I press the power button, volume + power up or down but nothing happens. Is my tablet hard bricked? Any idea whats wrong with it? Please help me
Edit: I just noticed when I also put it on the charge, the screen doesnt turn on to show charging. So it doesnt even charge, the odin console had 1 pass and 0 fail. Any idea what went wrong?
Go back to Droid opinion they are responsible .
Reread and double check instructions and correct firmware for your phone .
My guess is wrong firmware what was the original firmware .

Thanks for your reply. So it means its hard bricked? When i plug in the charger it dont even show charging sign. Any way to fix it?
Does Odin work? If it works, try to re-flash your device according to the instructions. Otherwise, install the stock firmware.

Sure, I can help you.
What OS do you have? Try to install Fastboot and ADB tools. After that, enter in download mode (not recovery!) and connect your device with computer.
ADB Devices will test the connection.
Next use Fastboot to flash.
If you have questions, pleask ask them. It will protect you from wrong actions.

I got mine working by opening the back cover (check instruction from Youtube)
unplug the power plug (the black small block in the middle with Red/Blue/Black colour cables), leave it for few minutes, plug it black.
This will only work if you have the "Samsung Note 10.1 logo" flashing in loop on screen all the time.
Good luck
I recently broke the screen and the touchscreen of my OPO and bought a new Glass+LCD+Digitizer+Middle Frame from Aliexpress. I just installed all the parts and afterwards my OPO booted happily into recovery. Touchscreen and Display etc are working fine. I wiped everything via TWRP 2.8.7.0 and wanted to do a clean install of CM12.1. But no matter what I do now, the phone always(!) boots directly into recovery mode. I can't even get into fastboot! I already tried all sorts of things.. any ideas?

If I power off my phone and plug it into the computer it immediately turns on. If I leave it plugged in and then shut it off via recovery, it reboots instead of turning off. Only if I unplug it from the computer, I can shut it off. So I'm afraid this link won't work for me

did you press and hold volume up when plugging it to the computer?
Yes I tried everything. It will only boot in recovery.
brah it will work. i was in same situation. it fixed my phone. try it.
I managed to do the whole "unbrick" process... now my recovery looks a little bit different but I still can't get into the bootloader!
When I boot up the phone, a split second before it enters recovery mode this picture shows up. The recovery is now stock CM recovery. ADB now doesn't work either..
TWRP has an option to reboot to bootloader. Did you try that as well?
Yes, I did. It booted into recovery...

No, it doesn't. However if go into the "install update via adb sideload" option in the recovery, the phone gets recognized as A0001, but the driver on my PC doesn't work. ADB doesn't work either in this case.

Well its possible, that one of the volume butten is pressed permanent(that u even don't take notice) due bad hardware and replacement. Therefore, the device would only boot into recovery, no matter what u try. Take a voltmeter and check the buttons.
BTW: stop using these dirty "toolbox" around here, they are pure cancer for your device
Hey, thanks for your reply. The volume down button being permanently pressed was actually the case! I found out myself and fixed it by soldering a new volume flex cable. Phone works fine again
