Every time I try to put my D800 into recovery mode to run the ioroot jailbreak instead of loading the standard Android Recovery, it loads a white screen asking me for a factory reset. No matter how many times I try to redo the recovery mode it will not go into the proper screen.
The frustrating thing about this is that I've had the phone in the proper mode before and now it suddenly wont work, does anybody have a solution?

So I decided to try to flash Zombie-Pop today and everything went fine during installation but when the tablet started booting up it was stuck on "android is starting.." and it seems to load the apps. I knew it would take a bit of time to stabilize so I let it run but after 1 hour of it stuck there, I tried to reboot into recovery but I get a black screen and I can't access TWRP. It just boots right back to the android is starting screen. It doesn't seem to be a boot loop since it finishes the boot sequence. My biggest problem is not being able to access recovery because of the black screen which apparently is happening to some people with TWRP. I tried to go through adb but since my tablet isn't done installing, it doesn't have the drivers to run adb. Is my tablet toast? bricked?

Which bootloader are you on?
How are you trying to boot to recovery?
Hi guys,
New to flashing custom ROMS. Good news - flashed CM12, then LiquidSmooth and I'm learning a lot after having soft bricked my phone a few times. Bad news - After trying to get back to Stock I'm not able to get out of this LG Logo bootloop. The LG logo will flash, screen will go black and the whole process starts again. It doesn’t progress past that. I'm unable to get to TWRP recovery or download mode.
My idiotic move:
Iffy stability with camera and mobile data with CM and LiquidSmooth. Decided to go back to Stock.
I flashed my nandroid backup, which I believe led to a bootloop (can’t remember). Was able to boot to TWRP and get back to CM12. Then I had the genius idea of using AutoREC and selecting the “Go Back to Stock” option. Yes, it’s already sounding like a bad, and nonsensical idea as I say it now. Can't remember exactly what I did next - I either flashed my nandroid backup or did a factory reset through CM settings. Threw me into this bootloop.
The details:
Model - D800 - Am sure of this.
Stock software before flashing CM12 was Lollipop 5.0.2 via OTA.
TWRP Recovery 2.8x something or other. Used AutoRec to flash.
I can interrupt the bootloop and access Factory Hard Reset through Power + Volume Down
Had to go to JB Bootloader in order to Flash ROMs. Errors returned otherwise.
Roadblocks:
No download mode. Holding Volume Up & Inserting USB cable doesn't work. Although am able to get bootloop to include a blank screen with red flashing LED through this method from time to time.
Phone boots up, and goes directly into bootloop when plugging USB cable into phone. This happens both when plugging into a wall charger or into a computer. I think this is probably the biggest pain and is holding up things from progressing. Can turn off phone by holding down power for a few seconds, BUT if the phone is plugged in it will continue to boot on its own.
Phone not recognized by computer & ADB However, was at times able to get Device Manager to recognize the phone as an "Unknown Device" after going to the Factory Hard Reset screen. This is no longer working after trying different drivers. I’ve went through LG Mobile Universal Driver as well as the Koush driver.
Going through Factory Hard Reset via hardware buttons only throws phone back into BootLoop
Can’t boot into TWRP
Any insight or help guys? Thanks in advance. I think getting into Download Mode will be a quiet victory. I’d like to try to use Supersports guide once I get there to go back to stock.
Hey guys,
Sorry if the answer to this found somewhere else, tried searching but foud nothing for my situation.
My buddy, who is a super basic user and was not attempting to do anything with his phone, has a G4 that suddenly stopped working and went into a boot loop.
We tried factory resetting it and it got about half way through the apps before stopping, going back into a boot loop and was unable to get back to the same point in the factory reset.
I tried flashing the ROM using LGUP to H811-20o and it said that it went successfully on LGUP as well as the phone itself, but after it rebooted it went back into a boot loop.
Now the boot loop goes faster but is still looping and we cannot get back into download mode to try again or potentially try a different ROM. It goes to the first screen of download mode with the 5 blue dots but doesn't get past that, I've removed the battery waited for a while in between attempts and still nothing.
We can get to the factory reset screen and click yes, it will then go to the green android guy with his cog wheels exposed but then immediately goes back into a boot loop.
Any help is appreciated, even if its just a confirmation of being SOL.

Last week I factory reset the tablet in the settings app (normally), it works fine before I factory reset, but after I did the factory reset, the tablet keeps on booting on the samsung logo then to a android with something working on his stomach then android robot with a exclaimation mark on its stomach. Its keep happening over and over again. At first I thought it was one of the procedure to reset, but then I keep doing it for an hour so I turned the device off. I tried to enter recovery mode, but I cant. The only mode I could get into is Download Mode. So I found this method using Odin to recover. But it wont work also. Tried all kind of Stock ROM still wont work. Ive tried one ROM that made the boot loop different, instead of loop with android stuff like before, it just stays on the samsung logo. I have a video to show you the problem that Ive been facing
***search "Samsung Galaxy Mega GT-I9200 reboot loop, no recovery menu" on youtube***
since I cant share link with you guys
In my case there is no "No Command" words at the screen.
Any suggestion on solving this?
My father-in-law's S6 was rebooting right after the menu screen came up. After trying numerous things which wouldn't work (still had varying boot loops) like getting into the recovery mode and doing a factory wipe, I decided to use Odin and flash the base stock Android nougat on this (it had the one verizon security patch after that, so should be no issue doing this).
That went okay and it rebooted and got all the way to "Android is starting" which you see after a firmware upgrade. But I didn't realize the battery had run down through all this so it died at this stage. So it was taking a charge now, so let it charge overnight and give it another run.
Got up today, tried to start it...back to the boot loop. So I figured I'd flash stock again with Odin (can always get back to that mode).
It completes successfully and then after the reboot at about 32% jumps to "erasing" and then the boot loop again.
Got into recovery mode once and wiped cache (pointless at this point, but whatever) and did factory reset there, then boot to bootloader. Got all the way to the verizon screen...and then boot loop again.
Is this phone just done? The only thing I can consistently get to is Odin mode. I tried the stock reflash a couple more times and keep ending up in a boot loop and it doesn't even get past the "custom" screen now. And I can't even actually get it to shutdown for that matter. I can get to the battery pull mode but if I try to power off from there, I just get the black screen with the blue light.
And, to make matters even worse, now on restart, it brings up the blue system update screen for a second, then jumps over to the no command screen, sits there for a second, then reboots again. I think I've somehow managed to even blow the recovery menu but this has all been stock and never had any custom firmware or root.
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
