I was trying to root my phone using the guide over at androidforums and when I tried to go into recovery mode, I get a screen that says Downloading... Do not turn off Target!!!!
Please tell me I didn't brick my phone. What is this? Please help!
just hold Power, and both volume buttons for awhile.
You are in download mode. And no you did not brick your phone.

This is how you update your phone. Are you able to get the phone into recovery mode or is it just stuck in that screen? Turn off your phone and back on and see if it's stuck at the screen.
If it is stuck I am sure you would be able to update the firmware on it or return to the Captivate stock ROM.
You can use Odin3 to flash a new firmware if need be.

Thank you so much. I was terrified to even touch the phone. I am very new to Android as you can see. Thank you again.

I turned it off then back on and was able to get into recovery mode. Thanks for your help. I am not sure what I did to get to the downloading screen. Thanks again!

You get the download mode by holding down the volume down button and then powering on the phone. To get to the recover mode you need to hold down the volume down button then the volume up button then the power button.
Glad your phone is working! Flash on!

You need to press VOL - first, then press HOME key without letting go of VOL -, then press POWER button. When you feel the unit vibrates you can let go of POWER button until Downloading mode is displayed.
hi,
i do c the android logo on d scree with the text message, odin can see the deivce on com5, but just stays at the line saying connecting to deivce. The phone it self is working, but i am not happy with the upgrade, so wanted to roll back. Please help me solve this problem. The rom i upgraded to was I9003JPKP5.
The mistake i did, i think, wast not to upgrade to kpe first and then come up to kp5, i directly did a kp5, misssed that part.
Please Please help.

you need to flahs xxkpe twice to avoid camera problem too.
Weird!!!!!!!!
Tell me the method using which you flashed the firmware. Give me all the steps!
I will tell you where you went wrong!
U need to switch the phone off to get to download mode.
Also XXKPH is a final GB release. Install that by first flashing XXKPE twice, then using the single XXKPH file as the PDA in Odin with nothing else.
Sent from my GT-I9003 using XDA App
hi friends,
thanks for your help. I was able to get to the download menu, i removed the battery and inserted it back and used the assigned keys to get to it, the reflashed the same set of files i had, now i am getting the download menu and the camera is working fine.
Will download KPE and follow the instructions given on XDA step by step for the upgrade.
Thanks a lot for you help. I really appritiate it.
Hi. I tried the method up there to go to download mode but so far I can't get there. It's so weird. I can go to the recovery mode but not the download mode. Are there any more methods to go to download mode? I press all three buttons for roughly 1 min but no vibration at all. after I let go the power button, it go to the startup and stuck there.
Thanks in advance for any opinion.

You must press the volume down+home+power button and let go at the right time

SM-G920F - Bootloop during installing systemupdate

Hi, a friend of me has a Samsumg Galaxy S6 (SM-G920F), which runs continuously in a bootloop while installing a system update. It goes to 29% and then restarts himself to start installing the system update again and returns to exactly 29% again, followowd by a restart again, and again, and again ........ Attempts to start-up in recovery mode (Power, Volume +, Home) or download mode (Power, Volume -, Home) do not work. Also my PC does not recognize the phone. :crying::crying:
Does anyone have got an idea to got my phone working, or any other idea to get my phone in recovery- or download-mode?
Anyone?
The Phone boot ?

No, unfortunately not. It keeps restarting when system update is at 29% and after the restart keeps comming back in "installing a system update" ......
Try the Pit files ans flash firware via odin

For that I have to boot to download-mode, right? Problem is that the phone isn't booting to download-mode, recovery or sytem at all. At least not by the "normal" procedure. It constantly booting to "installing systemupdate" ......:crying:
When you connect To odin. The Phone is recognized?
You are not holding volume down+power+home long enough. Keep holding it until you get to the download mode prompt screen.

No, the phone is not recognized by ODIN. Drivers on PC are oke, because my S7 edge and my girlfriends S5 are recognized by ODIN ......

As far as I know, buttons worked fine before. I guess phone is brikked and not much I can do about it anymore ....... :crying::crying:
I'm guessing you already tried running it flat? There is still a chance download mode is bootable once you get the phone to go off due to flat battery.
This phone is a pretty bad brick, I've fixed up to DRK corrupted but this one seems unrecoverable.

Yes, I already let the phone running empty battery. But as soon as I plug in the powercord, the same process starts over and over again .......
And with adb ?
same trouble
Hi everybody, i had the same trouble on my G-920F (S6), and the only strange way i've find, is to keep button volume up AND down and power, once it's turn off for rebooting, i've add the home button pressed.
finally by that way it show me the recovery menu. Another time it show me the download menu !!??
Well but now my trouble is that i cannot succeed to flash correctly the last official samsung firmware using Odin .
i've tryed to erase nand (i know i should not), but without succeed.
so i'm looking for pit file, and i will try an older firmware.
so try with the volume up and down and power, in case of it works like for me
