I have already wipeout/restore to factory settings. Turn off your phone, once turn off, HOLD Volume ( ), Call (bottomleft), and POWER for about 15-20sec. New loading screen will appear. Restore and Reboot
Turn off your phone, once its off hold down volume buttons, call button and power button for 15 to 20 seconds. This should force the phone into recovery
If that doesn't work I don't know what will, as the phone has very little info about it

Cloudfone ice 500e.. pls check the phone on google, i have tried all the possible button combination but it doesnt work, it keeps on restarting

Mobile Stuck on Boot Screen
I'm experiencing the problem to my android phone, it has stuck on boot screen after when I accidently deleted some fonts in /system/fonts/ using fexplorer.... Now its stuck. I've recovery e3 (original) phone is rooted with SU and I'm unable to start it. I used factory reset, and wipe partition... Can anyone help me on how to install new rom or how to access internal memory through computer as I've fonts on pc (that I deleted earlier). Or tell me how can I reflash a new rom. Its JB 4.2.2 dual sim...

Im suggesting that you should install new rom, using fastboot.. search some tutorial on youtube on how to use fastboot.. in your case its not that worse, you can still switch your phone to fastboot mode, thats all.. just try the fastboot and adb, that works

Samsung S7 can't boot into download mode

Ok, I bought a galaxy s7 from my friend, because he was getting a new phone, but I discovered that wifi wasn't working at all, so I thought it had to do something with the firmware and I decided to flash the rom with odin, with a newer version of the firmware.
This is where all my problems started, when I restarted my phone for the first time I noticed that the startup/booting animation was some weird ****, not like the usual one (the samsung logo) but was a weird loud animation with the letters of MTK, in that moment what came to my mind was that I just could be a custom rom or just a custom boot animation, so I didn't gave it too much attention, I continued to do what I was gonna do and tried to boot my phone into download mode with the classic normal method , Volum Down+Home+Power, when I tried this apparently It didn't work, I could stay there pressing the buttons for like 5 minutes and nothing would happen, and once I would release them, the phone would turn on and do the weird animation and boot like normal, at this point I was already worried so I proceded to Root my phone with KingRoot and install an app to manually boot my phone into download mode, it didn't worked. After hours of searching for a solution I found about ADB and I did all the steps to boot my phone from there, still nothing, when I typed the "abd reboot download mode" or something like that, the phone would just restart and do the ****ing weird animation again, so I tried booting into recovery mode and when I tried to do it, an android robot would appear laying on the ground with his chest open, and the words "No command". When I would press the home button the phone would react and send me to the recovery mode, normal.
So I'm begging you guys for help, since I don't know what to try now.
It looks like the download mode or maybe the firmware is broken, and I can barely do something without the download mode, pls help.
What I've tried so far:
-Basic 3 buttons method (can't remove battery, it's an s7)
- ADB method
- ADB fastboot method
- Vol Up+Vol Down+Home+Power
- Can't do anything with Odin since I need download mode
- Tried to install twrp recovery mode from ADB but says that It didn't found the file
If someone knows a solution for this please tell me what I can do. Sorry for bad english, right now I'm kinda exhausted because I've been trying over and over methods for like about 6+ hours

i had the same problem, phone is password pretected and cannou use factory reset and also phone wownt boot in download mode

No idea really but just to be sure. Did you try switching off phone completely and then trying 3 button combo for download mode?
Also post that **** boot animation logo as that might help us figure what you have flashed on phone.

Can't boot to download mode or recovery mode or anything ?

I was experiencing sudden restart of the device with no reason for last 2 days, today I flashed a ODIN flashable ROM to get rid of software problems, but later on today, It restarted, stuck at Samsung Logo, then I make it prompt download mode (vol down + home + power) and then selected cancel to restart, after this this device literally bricked, Just the blue LED is on, tried booting / booting to recovery / booting to download mode/ every possible combinations of the buttons. Nothing happens . Is there any way to save this or it has died ?

[NEED HELP] Bricked my phone with low chance of any recovery

I need help urgently. I tried to change the splash screen of my Samsung Galaxy A51. I downloaded a custom param tar file, placed it in my downloads folder and used this command in adb shell to replace the older one. I did back up my old param. But there's no way I can restore it. Now, my phone when I try to start it. It doesn't even seem to turn on the screen anymore. I hear the phone vibrating every 2 seconds so I assume it keeps rebooting. I tried to enter download mode but I can't because samsung made it that you need to go into the recovery first, so I tried to go into the recovery but nope, it keeps vibrating and it's not responding to whatever I do. Is there still any hope for my phone? Thanks in advance.

Hello, I had this problem too. My phone also stopped booting into anything, even in TWRP.
For me, the resolve was to make the phone force reboot by holding power button and volume down, then immediately try to enter the downloading mode by holding volume buttons, when the screen turns off

and then you need to flash your device with your stock ROM

I understand you, that you cannot enter the recovery, but for me this method worked

I managed to solve it, the problem I had was that I was unable to boot into download mode. Because I have a samsung galaxy a51 and I did not know how to enter it. The last phone I had was a samsung galaxy s7 edge, back in the old days it was easy to enter download mode, just hold volume down, power button and home button. Now for some reason I need a cable connected to my computer and then hold volume up and down simultaneously. After I figured out how to enter download mode I flashed stock rom and phone worked again.
