Hello, I'm new to installing custom ROMs and rooting a galaxy player 5.0. Currently, my Galaxy Player refuses to go on, after I rooted it, and installed a custom ROM. I used the clockwork mod and deleted some data, which I think is the cause of the problem. My galaxy player just goes in a loop whenever it is plugged up into a computer, and when it is not, it won't turn on, nor go into recovery mode. By the slim chance that I actually get it to turn on, if I unplug it from my computer it will automatically shut off. Can I get some help please?
You should try to keep vol down pressed when turning on your device or, if you can't, try holding the vol down in between the loops. If you manage to do that, plug the player to your pc and using odin, flash a stock rom. I had bootloop issues several times during rom changes and I managed to solve them getting the right tempo in between the loops and holding vol up or down to enter cwm mode or download mode.
try leaving it plugged in for a while, if its shutting off as soon as its unplugged the battery may be drained, after giving it time to charge do as the previous post mentioned and press power and volume down to try to get it into download mode from there you can reflash back to STOCK then on reboot go into recovery with the Volume up power button method and clear cache and wipe data/factory reset, you will lose any apps you have but should be able to get the device to reboot to factory and start over again from there.

I tried flashing a stock Android 4.2 JB ROM that seems legit. After flashing, I rebooted my device and saw the standard Nexus boot animation. So far, I though all was well. It's not. My phone has been stuck in this constant booting state for hours. I pulled the battery after an appropriate amount of waiting and held down the power and volume down+up button. Instead of booting into Fastboot mode, it went straight to Odin Mode. All I can do with my device is boot to Odin Mode or watch the Nexus boot animation over and over again. Does anyone know the solution to my problem or some sort of utility that will help me? Thanks.
Ahh bootloops...Have you tried pressing volume down+up first, then power? Sometimes holding power, then pressing volume down first goes directly to odin mode, not recognizing the later push of volume up. I've never used odin mode..Can you boot straight to recovery, volume up+power? And do you have cwm? If you were not on stock before, then you need a factory reset before it'll boot, and perhaps even a cache wipe.
And i'd bet youd find more help if this was posted in the nexus q&a.
Edit: I figured this out... I had to hold volume up and down at the same time while powering up. Also the phone needs to be unplugged. IF its plugged in it will go to Download mode instead of recovery.
Hello,
I recently Went from the stock ATT rom to CM 10.2, and then to Omni.
I can not access CWM recovery by powering the phone on while holding volume up... Ive also tried holding the soft home key.
The only way I can get into recovery is to open ROM manager and choose reboot to recovery. This scares me because if my rom goes haywire I may not have any way to get back into the recovery.
I have already tried re flashing CWM
any ideas?
Quick Boot
You can download the app "Quick Boot" from the Play Store, which has the option to reset into recovery (and many other options)
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.
Tried to uninstall root, first ended up stuck on logo reboots, could turn on download and recovery mode. I factory reset it, and now it won't leave download mode, indicating i have used smartswitch when i haven't whenever i try to leave download mode. So i can now only access download mode, see the error page and it won't turn off no matter what combination of power buttons i hold with the volume keys and home button. Any solution for this? Ill be trying to flash the stock rom later when it downloads but I was hoping for any alternative for now in case it fails
Using a Samsung note 5 SM-N902I
woke up in the morning my phone was turned off. So, i tried to charge it . then it went to fast-boot mode directly. I thought something was up and powered it off and tried to turn on but it got stuck on boot screen - I Thought(Just a Brick and i could reverse it)
Series of wrong steps:
1. i advanced wipe system,data,internal storage (I thought it would reset the phone :cyclops: ). but i realized that i delete everything later.
2.from twrp i directly went to fast-boot mode. But, my morning brain made me to poweroff the phone from fastboot.
3.Tried to go to fast-boot but accidentally i powered it on which started a boot-loop.
i cant shutdown the mobile or do anything .
i want to known whether can i still go to fast-boot mode or not.
if I could some how shutdown or go to fast-boot i could bring my mobile back to life
Please Help Me Out !!!!!!!!!!
EDIT :
i found the answer holding Vol Up + Down + Power buttons would force shutdown it.
You need to flash with stock rom , try to hold volume - and power while re booting
Not working
