Hello Team -
Today, I have tried to Install CM11 4.4 version on my Samsung GT-I8552. I have rooted by device using Kingo Soft tool and tried Volume Up + Home + Power option a multiple times. After a numerous attempts this option does not work. All I get is a small Triangular shape yellow warning sign and the phone won't even start up. I have to remove the battery and turn on the phone again. I tried the ODIN version of recovery option using Volume Down + Home + Power option as well. It worked but I still can't go to factory reset (Volume Up + Home + Power) screen.
Kindly address my issue at the earliest since my phone is stuck no where. :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards,
Syed

I started kies and after connecting my Galaxy FIT, I started upgrading the firmware it showed. Then it stopped and asked for emergency recovery. I did it, but it stopped again and phone got switched off and after that it is only showing a error sign with yellow triangle between a PC and mobile. It is not showing anything else though I have tried switching off and taking out battery. It is not working at all, just the error sign. Please help.
Sounds like a "soft Bricked" phone.
Can you boot in to download mode?
Press Volume Down + Home Key (middle button) + Power Button at the same time.
If the phone boots you into download mode (a yellow triagle with a digging android) with words "Downloading"....
Then you can still revive your phone.
this happened to me once..but later i tried pulling off the battery and restarting the sysytem...
try to take off the battrery and plug it again and try to go in DOWNLOAD MODE!..(i did it 2 or 3 times)
..and its definitely not a "SOFT BRICK" '!!
galaxy fit + CM7.1 (2.3.7) + 801Mhz
same happened to me
when first i flashed cyanogen 7.1 , 2.3.7 it happened to me, i just give tha droid a factory reset then following the instructions i flashed the rom from sd card via recovery then when reboot , just came up the cyanogen logo then tha lil letters(android) but just sttoped there no more, i taked out the lbatt, twice, then the alert logo came up......i was so scared.....sh-t !
but then i just remember to go to download mode pressing home , volume + and on/off then i reflash via odin but nothin happened, then y reestart the fir then i try to open in recovery i pushed home key and on/off and the cyanogen recovery just started i gave the phone again not only a data factory reset but, cache and the battery and everything i could reset, then i do it again thru recovery i flased the cyanogen and at las it works, i think like richard says was a soft bricked, try everything , via odin, via recovery.......
i thanks neil cause he helped me a lot!!!
hello, i have a starmobile engage 8 tablet from Philippines that I was able to root. i guess the bootloader is LOCKED, there is NO RECOVERY, and I can't install one. usb debug mode is unfortunately DISABLED without thinking that my tablet will have problems. when i restarted the phone, it showed me splash screen/starmobile logo then followed by a blank screen. after around 5 minutes, it restarts and then same thing happens.
what can be done in this case? please help!:crying:
keep trying to fix it!

I feel your pain, I have the same unit with a different issue but my temporary fix might help you.
Rooted my phone and installed a game(was in the middle of copying a file to the obb ), forgot to activate modded play store and restarted the tablet trying to do a quick modded play store install. after the stupid move My tablet now keeps restarting and stops after the star mobile logo and restarts again and it just keeps restarting.
What I did is I randomly press the following keys to attempt finding the safe mode: home+volup, home+voldown, pow+volup and etc... I finally found the safe mode and did a factory reset which did nothing to fix the restarts. Try not doing this!
Then I pressed and hold both volume keys when the star mobile logo shows up and the red star mobile logo turns blue completing the boot process for some reason starting the tablet.
As of today my engage 8 still does the infinite restart if I restart it but I can bypass it with the method. Hope it helps you.
Planning to do a cache/dalvik cache wipe when my research is done to try and fix this tab, good luck to me...
thanks for your reply... what i thought was that starmobile technicians do not want to share the key combinations. and im glad that you figured it out. can you remember that specific combinations you used? so that i can try then...
just so you know, i sent the unit to star mobile for repair and they managed to fix it. unfortunately i made the same mistake so i just dumped it.

There are only a few buttons on the phone. I mean, if you have 3 buttons, there are 3 combinations.
Assuming your phone has 3 buttons try:
Power + Volume Up
Power + Volume Down
Power + Volume Up + Volume down
If your phone has 4 buttons also try:
Power + Vol Up + Home
Power + Vol Down + Home
Power + Vol Up + Vol Down + Home
NOTE: Press ALL the buttons and hold in the same time.
NOTE2: Try the combinations in the order from top to bottom
Hello All,
I tried to install latest CM-12 Nightly from CM's official website (http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=bacon) using CyanDelta Updater app.
Received confirmation that 'cm-12-20150131-NIGHTLY-bacon.zip' has been successfully installed but device is taking lot of time to boot up and stuck in Flux Theme logo. When I long press 'volume up + power' buttons, it goes into safe mode and nothing much responds in safe mode. Kindly assist in this matter. Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Aarif.
Have you tried performing a wipe and reinstalling the ROM?
Assuming you have any recovery installed on your device, you can factory reset your device by only loosing your third party apps + it's data.
To do so, press volume up + power button. Once you find android logo with red exclamation mark, press power button followed by volume up to see list of commands.
Select factory reset option from there
Hi guys, I have my sisters Galaxy Tab 2 here (GT-P3110), she can't remember the google account info she used so she's completely locked out of it. I've tried holding Vol Up + Power button it doesn't do anything, I've also tried putting it into download mode by holding Vol Down + Power button and still does nothing, it just boots like normal. Can't flash via Kies as connection is locked (due to device being stuck on lock screen).
Anybody shed any light as to how to hard reset this when I can't get into download or the android recovery mode?
Fixed - Managed to get into the boot menu finally.
Okay then change the heading and add solved in bracket,

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!
