Tried all kinds of different combinations, nothing works it just boots normally or keeps repeating the first menu screen. up+home+power etc.. atleast 10 different combinations..
I CANNOT do other alternative methods because i am trying to wipe the phone for my sister since she doesn't remember her gmail account and thus the pattern lock is locked and its asking for gmail.
Thanks in advance if you can help.

Guys i have Micromax A177. Today installed Philz Recovery by a fellow xda member. It went fine. I took a nandroid backup through the recovery. Then tried installing a modded stock rom but unfortunately it took almost a hour but still didn't finish the first boot so I pulled the battery. Tried accessing the recovery with volume + and power button. But till I keep pressing these buttons i can see the bootloop but as soon as I leave them the screen is just stuck in the boat screen not even a proper loop here. Not able to access the recovery and phone doesn't boot up properly. So how do I get the phone back up alive? Any help would be good..

I tried factory reset and still got the same problem. service center told me that i have to pay 210 euros and that the root caused the problem..
Hi, i have a rooted SPH-M840 (Galaxy Prevail 2) and when my phone boots up it displays the message "shell has been granted Superuser permissions" and everything freezes (time doesnt change, superuser notification stays on screen) except the blinking cursor in the password box. also the low storage icon appears in the notification bar. while its in this state, the hardware buttons do not work and once you either press somewhere on the screen or press the volume button the cursor stops blinking and freezes completely. i can still soft reboot with the power button after its frozen but that's all i can do. i have tried two solutions which have failed to work but i need suggestions as to what i should do. i have tried hard rebooting but when it gets to the second boot logo and the message "boot to recovery mode by key" displays, it never goes to the recovery mode menu and shuts itself off. another method i have tried is going into my phones files by connecting it to my computer and either disabling superuser or deleting some files if storage was the issue, but when i connect it to my computer i cannot access the files because it says i need to troubleshoot my device. when i troubleshoot it says i need to install a driver fro my phone, when i accept the download, the download fails and there are no further options. I should mention this has happened before but the first time it only acted like this for 3 days and returned to its normal functioning state by itself but this time it has been 6 days and im looking for a solution. any help?
Hello, and welcome to XDA Assist! It seems to me that the best solution would be to reflash stock firmware and start afresh. But you might want to post your question first to this thread: [HELP THREAD] Ask ANY Question. Noob Friendly. You will need to register in order to post.
Good luck!

Hi, there is not much information about this on XDA but you may find details on the Samsung website. You may also wish to read through this thread for more ideas: Samsung Galaxy Prevail Rom Development.

Hi,
The problem I have is really very common to most Samsung Galaxy users, but I haven't found any solution to my particular problem. Well, basically my Samsung Galaxy won't get out of bootloop. It just won't go beyond Samsung Galaxy SIV I9500 screen. The phone never did this before this. The phone did, however, rebooted occasionally by itself when running normally.
My phone is rooted, but it runs the official version of Lollipop for Galaxy S4. I had to factory reset my phone one day, and I decided it to reset from the Recovery Mode. After successfully resetting the phone, it booted as usual. Soon after it suddenly turned off, and went into this complete bootloop and would not stop until I remove the battery. Whenever I insert the battery back in, the phone starts by itself, without me pressing any button, and goes in the bootloop again. I can only enter the Download Mode that too for a couple of seconds. When entering the download mode I don't have to press the power button.
Is there any solution to this? I am assuming that my power button suddenly failed. The power button is definitely not stuck. I have opened the entire phone and cleaned the motherboard, and rechecked, it still showed the same problem.
Really appreciate any kind of help.

Really appreciate the prompt reply. My bad, sorry. Not quite familiar with XDA Forums. I have posted a similar question there. We should end this thread.

Hey guys, I just got a DPS Dual 7 tablet which is not working anymore... I tried to fix it, and it's booting now, however, I can't restore factory settings, because the tablet only has Power and Back buttons, even though the recovery menu says "Use the volume buttons to navigate"... Do you have any idea what to do now? I can't even find a thread about how to use my PC to reset it to factory settings.... Any help would be really appreciated.
EDIT: Here's a picture about it: https://i.gyazo.com/2f3c4efae6e5badc0d50891e3ca97eba.jpg
EDIT 2: I tried using an earphone's volume buttons, no success.
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
Don't you have a reset option in Settings > Backup & reset?

The tablet doesn't boot at all, it freezes at the point when the screen says ANDROID. It was never rooted and has the basic ROM, so I think a normal reset could solve the problem.
