Cane you please help me?! I tryied everyhting and don't know what do do. Thank you

charging from custom recovery tends not to work so if the battery is flat you may have to get an external charger.

the top solution is option one... but if the external charger is more expensive just buy a new battery... if possible borrow somebody's batt and test first...

''Recovery''
I fixed that thanks god!!! But now another problem starts.. i turn on the phone and restarts over and over after the green sign. I can't access recovery also. I tried to install a recovery putting this file: PG58IMG in to Memory card and then install but no success it does the same I can't access recovery at all. When i try to access it my phone restarts the same when i try to turn it on. If someone one know what to do please tell me...thank you

You should be able to access recovery if you pull the SDcard before booting

Thanks for the tip mate, i will try this and tell you how did it go..

it doesn't ! I tried but when i choose recovery it shows me the Android Green Screen, a black screen after and then phone shuts down !!! Thanks anyway

Where did you get that PG file from?
Matt

This may help or not, but you could always see if it's recognised by your PC when you try and boot into the Bootloader using Volume Down + Power. It seems odd that it would refuse to get into the Bootloader and go straight to the green HTC logo.
My rationale is that if it is successfully does get recognised by your PC, then you could attempt to use ADB to breathe life back into your device, if not at the very least get some information about what seems to be the problem.
It's a bit vague, I apologise. A little more research on my part is needed I guess. (new to these forums, just trying to help!)
Hope this helps.

try reflashing the recovery

I-ve tried alreadz to flash mz recovery but don't know what fits better because when i go to recovery adn try to install something my phone crashes already ! :*(

Galaxy Tab 7.7 (P-6800) not booting into Download Mode

STORY
I installed a stock ROM for my Galaxy Tab 7.7 (P-6800) and it was stuck at the flashing SAMSUNG logo (the one with the tune) and so I just left it there and went to sleep. The next day I tried turning on the tablet but it didn't work so I booted into Download Mode and did a NAND erase. I was planning to install a stock ROM from SAMMOBILE but now I can't boot into Download Mode. When I try to, it goes into the warning screen and after a second or so, it becomes black. I figured it could have been out of battery or a button is broken. I have tried charging the tablet with wall charger (2.1A) but it doesn't seem to work. I could occasionally get it successfully into Download Mode but it will turn off itself for no reason.
PROBLEM
THE PROBLEM IS THAT I CANNOT BOOT INTO ANYTHING NOT EVEN DOWNLOAD MODE SO PLEASE DON'T GIVE ME GUIDES ON HOW TO FLASH.
I'M ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR A GUIDE ON HOW TO ENTER DOWNLOAD MODE WITHOUT USING PHYSICAL BUTTONS.
THERE IS NO ROM INSTALLED SO DON'T TELL ME TO GO THE TERMINAL OR ANYTHING. IT IS ABSOLUTELY EMPTY ONLY HARDWARE AND DOWNLOAD MODE IS INSIDE THE TABLET.
Anyways, please help. I am trying to get daniel_hk's cyanogen mod on this for my friend and I don't think he would expect me giving a bricked tablet to him.

Dead battery maybe?
Do you guys think I joined the dead battery club?

HELP
HELP please I need it working by Monday.

WORKING
Nevermind it is working now.

Galaxy s3 sch-I535 bricked and infinite loop everywhere

Hi guys. So I got a samsung galaxy s3 with a custom rom (Cyanogenmod I think 11 or 12) and the smartphone is completely in a bootloop due to the rom not working. I was obviously going to try to flash the stock firmware through ODIN and forget about CM but I have a problem: the phone everytime I plug the battery, it turns on showing the s3 screen and so and after a few seconds or a minute the screen goes black and goes back to the logo and it doesnt matter if in I'm download or recovery mode, those two things work fine but for a few seconds and then the smarphone loops back to the boot screen son in few words: my recovery and download mode are tecnically not working due to that. Is there any fix?
So the general thing is a s3 sch-i535 with CM in a bootloop.
ps: If need more specific information feel free to ask

You're welcome. Power button issues seem to occur more than they should, based on posts I've read.

S7 is dead. Help Please!!!!

I have a Verizon Galaxy S7 that I rooted and have been using on T-Mobile. With the new T-Mobile nougat coming out yesterday I tried flashing the new update using Odin. When I tried to flash via Odin it showed failed and my phone was stuck on download mode. So I trying rebooting using the Power + Volume Down and that's when i realized that the phone has been hard bricked. I don't have anything but black screen. When I try to get into recovery it shows "Rebooting Recovery" and then black screen again. Can someone please help me unbrick this phone? Is there anyway to boot from sdcard? Any way to get into a safe mode or something like that?

No I can't get into download mode. Otherwise I would've done exactly what you said. Download mode isn't working. When I try to get into recovery it shows "Recovery Booting" and then it goes black again.

I'm sorry. I don't think I clarified it properly. When I press the Volume Up + Power + Home I see a set of blue letters saying "Recovery Booting ..." I don't see anything after that. The phone goes back to Black screen and I don't see any of the recovery options.

What do you mean by Download mode "Does not work" ? Can you please elaborate.
Also, try to hold the download mode key combination in for like 20 seconds.

Well basically when I try to enter the download mode I'm not getting there. Not sure why but similarly i can't access recovery either even though I'm getting the blue message that says "Rebooting Recovery ...."

1- Waits for the battery to be empty ( if phone can be charged again )
or
2- use jig to force phone to star download mode

If you're just faced with a black screen when you try to access download mode, try to plug it in with odin and see if it's detecting anything?
I've been in a similar situation where you are now, and by pressing the combinations for download mode for maybe 30 sec the phone restarted itself a couple of times and evetually I got download mode.
One other time I held the combination and I thought I got into download mode but my screen was still black, and just for the fun of it I plugged it into my computer and opened odin.
Odin said "Added", I flashed stock, wiped everything, restarted and it worked! I then flashed stock rom completely again for safety reasons.

Yeah tried all those. Nothing worked. Just gonna send it back to Samsung since it's covered under warranty. Thanks for the suggestions though

Just being curious, if one of those hard brick occur, and i take my phone to service, what would they do to fix my phone? is it even possible to fix it, and how much would they request you to pay?

You voided the warranty as you have rooted and tripped the E-fuse

Happened the same to me because of a xposed module. Black screen with a pulsing blue led. Someone sugested to wait for the battery to drain and then try to connect to Odin. I have not tested it.
At the time i panicked and sent it to Samsung immediately without thinking.
Good luck to you.
