Hi guys,
i know this topic is posted a lot, but i don't know an answer.
I tried to restore my galaxy s6 using twrp, but after 4HOURS!!! i stopped the process.
Now im stuck in a bootloop and can't get into the download mode.
I'm trying to flash the stock android firmware with odin 3.10, but it can't get ahead "Set up connection". (maybe, because it isn't in download mode ) ?
how am i able to flash the firmware now?
Try pressing and hold Volume Down + Power Button until your S6 exits bootloop then press Volume down + Home button + Power button to get to download mode and flash stock 5.1.1 via odin.
Alternatively you can wait for your battery to drain fully until it turns itself off. Then go to download mode (volume down + home button + power button) flash stock 5.1.1 via odin. I hope this helps.

Hi,
I am trying to flash XXKPE, but my phone cannot go into download mode. I press vol dn + OK + power and all the phone does is restart by itself into froyo. Do i need to set any other things in settings/usb? settings/usb is set to kies automatically.
Is download mode = yellow android triangle logo at start? i don't see it, just keeps going back to froyo.
Thanks

Hi Guys, i've got into a little mess. I accindentally flashed S5360 Galaxy Y in my I9003 using Odin and since then i am unable to start the phone. It wont even enter the download mode! Please help.
Your phone doesn't vibrate when you turn on the phone right? If so, congratz u just hardbrick the phone. Next stop, your nearest phone shop!
Thats right!
Could you help me? How can I go into Download Mode if the "Home" button doesn't work (hardware trouble).
Is any variants to do it with any software or ADB?

Hi,
My phone does not go to recovery mode anymore. I tried all the combination like volume down + home + power / volume up+ home + power / volume down + power / volume up + power etc, everything,
but all in vain, previously it was going to recovery mode but now it is just dead. I tried recharging the battery, for 3 hours, battery is getting recharged bcoz its gets little heated but the phone does not gets switched on or goes to recovery.
As it does not go to recovery mode, ODIN does not recognize it and I am unable to flash it or do anything with it.
Please help.

Hi,
Make sure you press all the button combo correctly. You usually go to download mode for your odin to detect it.
For further questions , you may ask here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-sl/general

It was going earlier, but recently it stopped. Is there a limit for which it goes to download mode?
I have a Samsung Galaxy s6 (GM-920F I believe) and after a OTA update to the Marshmallow firmware, it fails to boot up on the Samsung logo (it displays it but doesn't make the sound) and I cannot use the volume keys to access recovery (or download mode). In addition it isn't detected by Odin on vairous PCs (and I've used lots of different micro USB ports). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Why you can't boot into download mode? If you press volume down + home button + power button for a very long time, it should boot into download mode.

My phone's volume buttons haven't worked in ages and they don't work now either
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!
full stock, unrooted, GT-P5110
... connect to odin (3.12 PC)-> uncheck auto reboot -> install twrp -> PASS -> unplug cable from usb
but all I seem to be able to do is reboot into system.
I :-
hold power button for 1 sec, 2 secs, 3 sec.... trying to just turn it off (instead of reboot)
hold vol down + power button,
hold power button + tap volume down,
just hold vol down,
tap power button (does nothing), only long press restarts.
hold power button till screen goes black and then hold vol down + tap pwr button
hold power button till screen goes black and then hold vol down + hold pwr button
hold power button till screen goes black and then hold vol down on its own
search forum
pull hair out
type this
each time reinstalling twrp
any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
thanks
To reboot to recovery you need to hold volume UP + power.

well that's strange, as, on my device, from off:
Volume UP + power takes me to download mode... I have done this several times and it asks me to confirm by then pressing down.
AND, from off
Volume DOWN + power takes me to recovery.
and doing a search, via google and xda all agree with me.
.. but thanks
I never said I couldn't get into recovery... I cannot get from odin into recovery without it first rebooting and therefore wiping my flash.
edit: So I tried it anyway, and got back into download mode, which in a way is kinda good news as, my logic, if I can get back into download mode from a reboot then I should be able to get into recovery from a reboot.
Same same but slightly different

I am having the exact same problems and tried exactly the same things. I am just not able to install twrp because of this. ( I read that it overwrites the recovery with the stock one when you are not going straight into recovery mode after installation) I am stuck at the “Samsung Galaxy note 10.1” screen if try to go straight into recovery.
What is strange though is that with my device: VOLDown (towards the power button) + Power button takes me to download mode and the other combination supposedly to the recovery mode.
This is so frustrating. Done this so many times with other devices but this one just does not give up… I just want to get rid of all bloatware and other crap…..

I've given up, for now, tried every combination I could think... I have a sneaky feeling it must be rooted first. It is the only thing I haven't tried doing.
I am now trying to root it first

I am currently doing just that! Using the files from autoroot . chainfire . eu (can not post links yet haha) . I will let you know how it went!
UPDATE:
It worked! I rooted my device first. After that I flashed my recovery via the TWRP app. I also must say that my device is the GT-N8010 (p4notewifixx). I got confused of all the different models. Still I think it will work with your model aswell! Good luck!
