Samsung Note Pro 12.2 boot loader install failed - no Download or Recovery option

Hi All,
I was going to refresh my Note pro 12.2 SM-P900 unit but things have gone awry. I was installing version TWRP boot-loader/recovery to then upgrade to lineage.
The TWRP recovery load via Odin completed but the install didn't mesh.
The device is now determined to stay turned on at the black and white Samsung loading page with RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING in hurtful red letters.
I can get to the "this is dangerous, press vol down page" but if I click down (or up) it restarts. If I try to go straight into download mode it just restarts as well.
Obviously cant take out the battery (currently letting it run down and see if that helps). I've read a number of guides on the various home, volume and power combinations and have done this on numerous devices before but this is the first time I've really managed to mess things up but statistically after the number of times I've don't this stuff it was going to go wrong eventually. If I could get it into download i'd be able to re flash a recovery and I'm sure all would be well but that doesn't seem like an option!
I think this may be the end of the line for it, but any and all suggestions welcome at this point.
PM

Thankyou Ibuprophen,
Appreciate you taking the time to call these out.
The boot loop resolved when I allowed it to fully power down and then recharged and followed the instructions again.
Just in case anyone else runs into this, take time, have a up of tea, let it drain and die. Then follow the instructions called out above.

Homtom HT17PRO MTK6737M HardBricked

I need help with my mtk6737m phone which i bricked in a really dumb way
I need help flashing it with SP Flash Tool which gives an error that says:
S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (0xFC0)
Here is how i bricked it.
Today i decided that i want to flash a custom recovery on my phone, so i did and it didnt work.
For some reason when i tried to boot to the custom recovery it didnt work, it went to the stock one
For some reason i got stuck in a boot animation too...
So then decided that it was a good idea to flash to complete stock rom back to my phone,
but chose the format all + download option, so that the changes the custom recovery made
were deleted. Well, so i thought...
Is there any way to fix my bricked phone? Its the only one I have :crying::crying::crying::crying:

This wasn't extremely clear...
There's really not much of anything on the forum regarding a Bricked H17.
The following links are probably the best you're going to be able to locate via a Google search.
The following is just a few guides (with downloads) for installing the Stock Firmware back to your device.
https://www.getdroidtips.com/stock-rom-on-homtom-ht17/
https://www.getdroidtips.com/install-official-stock-rom-on-homtom-ht17-pro/
https://romprovider.com/2018/02/install-official-firmware-homtom-ht17/
The following is just the download firmware from the HomTom website.
https://www.homtom.cc/DownFile
If your device is completely unresponsive (aka dead) then the only real option for you is either to return the item for a repair/replacement where you had purchased it or just to contact HomTom.

I'm sorry that I can't help you out any further than this...
I do wish you the best of luck!

Sorry, english is not my main language, its actually portuguese
I'll do my best to explain what happened from the beggining:
My homtom had some issues like, when you used the camera in any app it was dark, and on instagram stories, there were glitches on the screen, green and purple stuff started appearing in the screen and you couldnt see what was happening, so i decided to change my rom to a custom one.
I saw some tutorials..... and after watching them i tried to install TWRP so i could flash the custom rom..
After installing TWRP it wasnt working, when i tried "volume up + power" it went to the stock recovery.
So i thought it was a good idea to select format + download on SPFlashtool so it formatted the phone reseted all the changes i made...
After clicking, the phone immediately shut off and SpFlashtool said: S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (0xFC0).
I dont know what i did but somehow i am not able to do anything on my phone, I tried new drivers, older firmware, stock firmware, different cable, different port, charging, but the phone doesnt even light up.
I think there must be a way to access the phone's storage and install android all over again but, what i dont know is how to do that. So thats why im seeking help, but no one seems to understand or know how to do that....
I hope you understand me now and know of a solution, if not, I appreciate that you tried to help me

if your phone have removable bettey, try only format option after remove bettery and after formate complet, download only rom with bettery..

Samsung s7 can’t get past factory binary

Not been on here in a very long time and thought I would ask if anyone could help me with the problem I’m facing,
I used Odin on my s7 and for some reason now after putting the Samsung Firmware with ADB communication, then following the steps I try to put the Combination Firmware on it’s does all as it should, a pass is showing in Odin but the phone reboots once but hangs on the Samsung Logo (pulsing) all I can do after that is put it back into download node and reinstall the Samsung firmware with adb com which will bring me back or the factory binary software on the phone,
can anyone help me as I spent most of last night trying to solve it on my own lol
Mods if this is in the wrong section please could move it to the correct place so hopefully I can get the right help. Thanks

[MOD] Is there a way to root Umidigi C2?

Hi All,
I have this phone and I have installed the cutom ROM provided by Umidigi admins, but this does give any recovery capabilities.
When I boot to recovery I see an Android fellow lying belly up.
I am asking because I have to recover my files from the data partition after accidental factory reset. I have pulled up my phone from the pocket and voila! I have no idea how this happened. I had situations where somehow the user was switching itself in the pocket, but this time it was a proper factory reset.
To use any recovery software I have to 1st root it.
I have enabled USB debugging and enabled Unlocking in Settings, but I cannot unlock it from fastboot saying "unknown command", but fastboot is reporting: unlocked: no
Even if I want to clone the data partition using DD command the phone has to be rooted.
For quite some time I cannot post anything on Umidigi crappy message board.
Please advise.
Best regards,

Thank you for pointing this out.
It looks like I am stuck for now.

And you know what?
I took my smart phone to the park (same location) and it factory reset itself again.
I am taking it out from my pocket and voila I see a setup wizard screen!
All lost again! Crazy.
I am just under the impression that while it was in my pocket some keyboard combination has made this happen.

LG G4 Bricked

Good day to you all
so Ive got a problem here when trying to install custom ROM in my phone,
so I have my old phone LG g4( h815 EU Version)which are not used anymore and I thought of giving it a new life by wanting to use custom ROM (Lineage OS) and using the android orei(8.1)
So I've read here and there and decide to try it,so here's what I've done until my phone is finally bricked.
I managed to unlock the boot-loader of my phone officially using the LG set ups
then I managed to get into the TWRP Recovery
so after then I wipe the data and cache in my phone using TWRP, and the next thing I do is to install the LineAge os that Ive download right? ,the problem Is I zipped the Lineage OS files and put it into my Phone Internal Storage, so when I want to install the OS I Choose the "Install by Image" in TWRP and choose the "boot.img" and after that I reboot the phone because It seems it was stuck on TWRP loading screen. Then now my phone is stuck on the LG Boot screen with "bootloader unlocked " on top of the screen. I've tried to try the recovery mode but it just wont do anything, I cant do fastboot also because somehow even though connected with usb cable and installing other adb drivers the devices just wont be recognized, so now I am stuck in these booting screen with no way of getting out.
So my question is, is there any way I can either factory reset them or anything, I dont need to save any data as it was already factory unlocked before i tried this method and Ive saved all the data before, but is my phone still could be saved or there's nothing I could do with it and regard this as a very foolish experience because of my negligence, any feedback would be appreciated.
Thank you very much
