As the title saids I can't get into flash mode.
I downgraded from 2.1 to 1.6 026 and there was a
ERROR IS MAJOR or somthing like that on the command prompt.
After that i press the power butoon and it will vibrate once and flash the green led once.
After that it wont do anything. If I press the power button again it wnt vibrate etc unless I take the battery out, re-insert it and press it again.
Tried going in to flash mode with the same results.
Even tried safe mode to no avail.
The screen wont even turn on at any stage!!!
If I can get it into flash mode I should be able to do somthing
Please help​
Until you sort out your usb port it's pointless making such posts.

All of this and more can be found in the Noob Guide in the general section op by S15274N
You are in recovery mode if it says "2E" or "3E" recovery you should be able to get into download mode and then you can flash back into stock.
To get to download mode plug in you usb into the computer first. then, hold the volume keys both down then plug into the phone (while it is showing the recovery mode, in other words it is still on) if it does not work, then pull out then try again a couple of times When you plug it in leave for 2-3 secs. There are other methods in the noob guide to try as well. If this does not work or you can't get it Then, just buy a Jig from the xda member connextion2005 (mobilevideotech.com I think). they are 8 bucks and all you do in just plug it in and it will bring up the download mode. From there you can do this:
Get the Odin program 1.7 or newer, get the Stock 2.1 Tar file, get the 512pit file
You can find these in the general forum in the thread called Noob guide
then:
Open Odin, plug in your phone, put into download mode. connect it to the computer it will recognize might say com8 or some other number
Load the PIT file into the appropriate area and the .tar in the PDA area.
You want to check the 're-partition' box.
Now click start, let it finish, and this time your phone will load up just fine!
Then, root the phone and you can flash your new Rom.
Use the super oneclick method it is easier to root then download Rom manager and now you can flash any rom you want
This is solvable good luck

Lets do this one
dont take the battery out
just press down vol and up vol without power and plug the usb
tell me if it worked
NO,, It didn't work..
the problem is that the recovery mode appears instead as soon as i plug the usb..
even if i tried the old method I've been using for..(this one used to always work but not anymore..)
1. Remove SD and SIM card
2. Remove battery
3. plug the phone into USB
4. hold down vol-up and vol-down
5. Pop the battery back in while holding vol buttons
This may work if not.............
Just get the jig it works and will solve this problem
I want to recover the phone and return it to stock and can't get the phone into download mode.
I press and the volume down button, then press and hold power button for a few seconds.
The phone starts up and I get a CwM VooDoo Lagfix Recovery v2.5.1.x screen.
When any option is selected the screen goes blank and the bottom buttons light up. Then nothing else happens, I've waited up to 15min.
So how do I fix this?
i think i can help u. let me know if u have resolved this.
phone off. battery out.
Plug the usb cable into the computer but not the phone.
hold volume down on the phone and plug in the usb cable as you hold down the button.
You should enter download mode.
NM figure it out
i'm trying to enter flash mode but i always fail to...
All the phone do is boot up normally into system
I tried pressing back button while plugging the phone in usb
I tried pressing POWER+HOME+BACK and then pressing BACK after phone going black... but it doesn't go black anyways
I don't know what to do... The phone itself works normally and i can enter into xrecovery

Take out your battery for about 15 seconds or so. There may be some static buildup causing this.
And if you want to do a hard reboot, just press home and power together with the usb-cable connected. It might enter flashmode automatically, but it can't hurt to press the back-button when the screen goes black.
Thanks for the reply...
But none of the methods work. The phone doesn't hard reboot and i tried removing the battery for 30 seconds and nothing... doesn't work.
Is there a adb command to reboot into flashmode?

I don't believe there is an adb-command for that. Are all your buttons working properly? You can also enter CWM and choose reboot. Same thing, as soon as the screen goes black, hit and hold the backbutton, leave the usb-cable attached.
And make sure the program is asking for flashmode before you try entering it, otherwise it won't stick.
i will try it...
All the buttons is working 100% on system
EDIT:
i'm unlucky with this phone...
pressed reboot and then pressed back button... booted directly into system
these are the only ways to get into flash mode?
is it possible that my custom operator rom is blocking it in any way?
Hey Guys, so i never usually post because i can usually solve my own problems, but i think this time i've out done myself.
So last night when installing CM12.1 using TWRP my xperia Z2 everything was looking rosy. Then when I tried to turn the phone on to boot the first time it gave me just a single little vibe but would not turn on.
I've tried ALL combinations of button resets - Nothing
I've tried to re-flash a stock image using flashboot - Nothing - it won't recognise flash or download mode when i plug it into my computer while holding down volume down
I've tried holding the volume up button while plugging it into my computer to try FASTBOOT mode - Nothing - the blue LED on the top comes on, but neither OSX or WIN7 recognises anything has been plugged into the computer and it doesn't register on ./fastboot devices
So have I actually properly ****ed my device? Or am i missing something?
Any help would be so massively appreciated. Like i said, i usually never ask.
Did you try another cable? Blue LED is good, so fastboot mode should work.
When it would be bricked, there would be no blue LED...
Did you look into device manager on WIN7? Any device like "S1boot" or "Sony ADB Interface" there?
Sony logo showing up, when turning the phone on?
Try "fastboot reboot or "fastboot reboot bootloader" even though "fastboot devices" doesn't show up as anything (weird). It should boot back to bootloader and register your device. This happened to me once.
I think it's "fastboot reboot-bootloader" and i think it won't work...
Try
Try holding the power button and volume up button in until it vibrates. Then you should be able to hold power button and volume button to get to download mode. This works on mine when all else fails, lol.
Hi,
I own galaxy s3 i9000, currently on custom rom. My phone automatically rebooted and got stuck on bootloop. If I am able to enter in recovery mode, i can wipe cache(which may can help to get out of bootloop). But the problem is I am unable to enter into recovery mode because phone's volume up button is not working and my phone auto reboots every time after power off or reinserting battery. Is there any other way to clear cache or enter into recovery mode?
I dont want to flash my stock rom via odin (because i didnt backup my some important apps and msgs), this will be my last option.
sorry for my bad english
The normal way I get my phone into recovery mode from the PC is using ADB and the command: "adb reboot recovery". However, I bet this won't work in your case for one of several possible reasons: depending on when the bootloop occurs in the boot process, the phone may never reach a point where ADB is able to see your phone in the first place; if this is happening after a flashing a new custom ROM, then also it's unlikely that USB debugging is turned and the PC is not yet authorized to connect with it over ADB.
Another thought, could your power button be stuck down? I had a GS3 SCH-I535 several years ago and the power switch went bad on it, it would keep rebooting, shutting down randomly, or I'd be unable to turn on the screen. I had a switch replaced and it was fine after that. I don't think it's normal for the phone to automatically boot up when you reinsert the battery, that's why I bring that up. Maybe you can wiggle the power button a bit and try to unstick it if that's the case.
I tried to remove and stick back the power button again, but still it didnt worked. By the way fixing power button will not help me to get into recovery mode as my phone's volume up button is also not working, and recently I found out that I cant enter into download mode too because when I press respective buttons (volume down + home + power) for download mode, it gives warning msg to click 'volume up' buttton to enter into download mode or 'volume down' to reboot. Therefore again volume up button is required to enter into download mode too. So the only option remained for me is to visit service center and fix the volume up button.
