Can I get into recovery mode without a working home button? My i9100 has a faulty home button, phone is stuck on a bootloop will not get pass the samsung logo screen. I can flash the phone in odin with a stock rom and finish with success but still get stuck on bootloop. I think if I can get into recovery to wipe data then the phone will boot all the way. Any help is appreciated. I've searched but have found nothing solid. Thanks!
Buy a usb jig off ebay. plug it in then turn your phone on and it will put it into download mode.
e.g.

well i guess hes already got a jig. was wondering how he got in download mode with a broken home
I can get into download mode by pressing and holding volume down + pressing and releasing power but still holding volume down when turning the phone on. But my question is, how do I get into recovery without home button?
Flash a matching Chainfire CF root kernel via Odin (phone in DL mode). This with install his Cwm app. Once rebooted, run app (give su permission), and choose to boot into either clockwork recovery, dl mode, or reboot.
Edit: But once in recovery, how do you plan to actually select anything when the home button doesn't work? ? ?

He cant boot up, he's stuck at boot logo so no way to use the cwm from chainfire
Oh dear without the home button it's hard to operate the phone. I think you can boot into recovery mode by using ADB, search on the forums or Google.
I would rather you have the home button replaced ot fixed.
Cheers!

Use can use QtADB to get into recovery - just tried, it works. But the option "flash zip" doesn't work, and of course,................
how do you plan to "select" anything if the home button doesn't work? ? ? Can't think of any way just yet.

If you have adb setup, and know how to use it;
1. Copy the Custom ROM.zip to your sdcard folder on the phone
2. Rename to "update.zip"
3. Run CMD and navigate to the sdk tool folder where adb.exe is
4. Run "adb reboot recovery" to enter recovery mode
5. Phone to boots into recovery screen
6. "apply: /sdcard/update.zip"
7. After finish, reboot into new ROM
Haven't tried it myself though on the SGS2 ..............
tried it, didn't work..
Lost my Home button after odin flash HELP
I am stuck a i9100 that has no home working home button after i botched my first odin flash. I can not seem to get the device to be recognized by ADB or ODIN now that its messed up. I can boot into the Android Recovery System e3, and i can move up and down in the menu, but the 'home' button i used to select options no longer works. I can not get it to boot out of that menu.
This is a Sprint branded i9100 from the United States... tho when i got it, it was already 'rooted' with Gingerbread-Eg30 however it did not state the firmware version. So after i used ODIN to ref lash it... it rebooted and killed my home key... Now i am not sure what to do. ADB is not finding the device listed and I can't seem to get it to take a rom. Any suggestions?
Prior to flashing this rom in odin i had a working home key which was used as part of the 3 button combo to ender flashing mode or to select an option in the stock recovery menu.
Any help would be great!
Flash a full wipe rom like stock in download mode that should fix it.

I am having the same problem. My I9100's home button doesn't work. I had cyanogenmod 10.1 and cwm recovery installed. Used the button saviour app to operate a virtual home button on screen. Updated to cyanogenmod 10.2. nightly yesterday. All seemed working. Today I found that some apps like Google Play and ROM Manager would crash on when started. So I thought I go back to cyanogenmod 10.1. Started the installation of 10.1 from the "about this phone" settings because ROM Manager crashed and I couldn't boot into recovery from the crashing ROM Manager.
So, I now flashed a stock firmware from samfirmware.com with ODIN (because I can get into download mode with the USB-Jig), but that stock rom stucks in a boot loop.
Any suggestions? I believe, I am stuck in boot loop because I couldn't wipe the phone before flashing. Is there any way to wipe it in download mode?
Or can you be more specific, how to flash a "full wipe rom" and post a link where I can download such a rom?
1. Don't use rom manager on i9100, sure way to screw things up /brick.
2. Get the hardware sorted before you muck around with software. As you have found out, it's easy to get into a situation where you need the hardware to function correctly.
3. Download JB leak (stock firmware) from samfirmware and flash it via Odin. It's a 3 part firmware, and will wipe as it flashes.

Hello everybody,
I just successfully rooted my Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi (GT-P7510 model) using stock 4.0.4 ROM, and wanted to put up together all the steps, as they are disseminated through several posts and various broken links in the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development forum.
As I'm not able to write there because of being a noob, I'll post it here, hoping any moderator sees this and moves it to its correct place.
I assume you have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi device (GT-P7510) with stock Android 4.0.4 ROM installed and working.
Step 1: Downloading relevant files:
From this post, get Odin3 v1.85 and CWM Touch Recovery.
Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip file from this post.
Latest version of SuperUser from here. This is needed because SuperUser included in the other zipfile doesn't work well with ICS, as stated in this post.
Step 2: Placing files correctly:
Decompress Odin3 to a folder on your computer.
Copy CWM file (named recovery.tar.md5) to the same folder of Odin3.
Plug the tablet to your computer and copy latest version of SuperUser and file "Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip" to device's root folder.
Step 3: Installing custom recovery:
Put your tablet into download mode:
Power off tablet.
Power on holding Power + Vol Down (left part of volume button) buttons.
When Samsung logo appears, release power button, but continue holding Vol Down button.
When two icons appear, push Vol Up button (right part of volume button).
Connect tablet to computer. Wait until drivers are fully configured.
Open Odin3 v1.85.exe (under WinVista/7 admin rights must be granted).
Under ID:COM label a yellow box with a COMX port number must appear. If you encounter problems see below.
Push PDA button and select previously downloaded recovery.tar.md5 file.
Push Start button. If everything went OK tablet should restart automatically. If you encounter problems see below.
Disconnect tablet from computer.
Step 4: Rooting process:
Put your tablet into recovery mode:
Power off tablet.
Power on holding Power + Vol Down (left part of volume button) buttons.
When Samsung logo appears, release power button, but continue holding Vol Down button.
When two icons appear, push Vol Down to select the leftmost option, and then Vol Up button (right part of volume button).
Right now you can switch options wih VolUP and VolDown buttons and select options with power button.
Navigate through "Install zip from sdcard" and "choose zip from sdcard".
Select "Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip" file and select "Yes - Install Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip" when prompted.
Once the installation ends, repeat procedure with the latest SuperUser build previously downloaded.
Once the installation ends, select "+++++Go Back+++++" and "reboot system now".
Step 5: Enjoy your rooted device! :victory:
This has been tested only with a Spanish Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi device (GT-P7510) with stock Android 4.0.4 ROM installed.
Problems encountered:
If you have trouble running Odin, follow these steps:
Disconnect tablet from computer.
Uninstall Samsung Kies.
Reboot computer.
Download root.zip file from this post.
Install "GT-p7510_USB_Driver_v1_3_2360_0-Escape.exe" drivers.
Retry again. Another reboot may be useful.
I want to thank you to all the staff of xda-developers and to all the users whose work I compiled here.
Get in there, root acess is mine! Worked a treat on my GT-P7510 wi-fi only with stock ICS 4.0.4, build number IMM76D.UELPL, just added my tablet details for anybody searching in the future.
Thanks very much, time to play
Ty
TyTyTy.. Just what the doctor ordered. Worked flawlessly. Ty for taking the time to write all that up also.
My root went awry !
Hi
I believe I followed all the directions but something went amiss.
My GT p7510 now will just reboot to find my network and connect, then show the clock and security screen , it will show the current time and accept my security shape --but then the screen stops accepting input. and everything stops.
Seems like running recovery is possible, would a factory reset be advisable?
Thanks

Confirmed Root of GT-P7510 with 4.0.4 stock
I just wanted to post a reply to confirm that I was able to use these instructions to perform my first ever root of an android device (GT-P7510 with 4.0.4 android and build number IMM76D-UELPL). Thanks for a great, easy to follow post. :good:
I would also recommend that any users make sure to install the Samsung drivers (GT-p7510_USB_Driver_v1_3_2360_0-Escape) on their PC before starting the instructions as written, as I have read that these drivers are needed as a prerequisite to rooting in other forums.
woot
Great guide i tried others and all the Dl links were broken yours all worked
THANK YOU!
Worked on my GT P7510 United States. I am a noob, I followed your flawless directions and all is well. Thanks for the easy to read and use tutorial!:good:
I'm a noob from Canada, I signed up on this forum just to thank you for this easy to follow guide!
A friend just gave me his old GT-P7510 (aka p4wifi) and I used this guide to root it because it was very clear and detailed. Went perfectly smoothly.
However, the OP is old and points to an older version of CWM. If you intend to flash CM 10.1, you need a newer version of CWM. Take a look at this thread (if you have the wi-fi version):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2296961
From Post #5 I grabbed the flashable version of CWM Touch 6.0.3.1 (P4wifi) and flashed it, then flashed CM 10.1 (8/4 nightly) and everything went super smooth. You guys rock. :good:
Hi,
Some months later i try tu follow your tutorial. Very clear but... i've 2 problems.
With the CWM that you recommend, the recovery mode is unreadable (rolling) > first problem.
So i follow this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1555984 it resolves my display problem, i can access to recovery mode.
I continue with step 4 with Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip installation in recovery mode but now my device doesn't start, it loops...
Initialy it was in 4.0.4... i think i don't understand anything with the different versions of firmwares and others CWM...
Help will be really appreciate...
Many thanks

from stock 4.0.4
install recovery from droidbasement
send over custom rom and gapps
go into recovery and install rom then gapps
reboot and voila
(use odin and stock rom to get back to stock and no more bootloop)
as long as you can get back into recovery/download everything is fixable.
android is like a pc
recovery = bios
custom/stock rom = windows..linux...ect..
wrong root.zip file will give you bootloop your adding wrong files so device can't boot up
hope this helped
btw...you don't need to be rooted to install recovery or custom roms
I'm Rooted!!
Followed instructions to successfully root a Galaxy Tab 10.1 and then installed GSM (cell) call support from AndroidAdvices site.
All went well but I did have to follow the "Problems Encountered' sequence to get Odin3 to run on the Windows desktop.
Really appreciate your help.
Thanks guys.

Hi! Thanks for your post for the steps of the rooting of Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 . I have just a few quick questions.
is it possible to use your rooting guide to flash the latest version of CWM recovery or should I use the specific one you recommended with the link in the guide? In order words, could I flash CWM 6.0.3.0 ( the latest for galaxy tab 10.1) instead of the one you suggested? Just let me know. If you believe the CWM version you suggested in your guide is safer then I will flash the one you suggested instead. Also is it possible to use adb fastboot to turn the tablet into the desired mode? I really have trouble pressing the buttons to get to the different modes. Thank you very much.
Re My Build #
Hi I just looked at my Build # and it's IMM76D.VLLH3 now my questions are
Will this work with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 GT-P7510.
Will is change the Build #.
Thank you in advance for reply.

I Odin Eryigit rom for my Galaxy player 5, after that my capacitive buttons doesn't work, i can't install anything using clockword mod because everytime i try to install a different rom, can't mount /sdcard will pop up.
anyone know how to solve this ?
First, I would make sure you are running the latest CWM. Boot into CWM then go to Advanced> Reboot Recovery. Sometimes this can fix minor bugs. If that doesnt fix it the worst that could happen is that you will have to reflash CWM and/or a different ROM.
Are you running the correct kernel? And did you try doing install from internal sd.
Sent from my YP-G70 running my PA 2.57.4 using xda app-developers app.
i'm not sure if i'm using the correct kernel or not, if you can please point me to the correct kernel.
And yes i was trying to install it using the internal Storage.
please point me to the correct kernel and stock rom, i have no luck in finding it ( 3 capacitive buttons version one ) YP-G70CWY\XAA 8GB

I had the same problem...
You have to shut your player down and go into download mode. If its restarting and won’t stay off thats ok just hold the power button down and as soon as it go blank release the power button and press and hold the volume down button - should be in download mode then.
You will have to download the stock version for the Galaxy Player 5.0,
I used - galaxy_player_2.3.6.tar.md5 .
You can find it here in XDA forums. Once you have it, extract the md5 to a folder on your desktop. Start Odin, once started - connect your player.
You should see your device ID "Added” in the Message section and in the ID:COM above. Now select PDA and click the PDA button to search for your md5 file you downloaded and load it into Odin. Before pressing start make sure that the only options checked are "Auto Reboot" and "Reset Time". Now press start, you will see the progress in the Message field and updates just above the ID:COM field at the top left. Once it says Pass it has completed, wait for your player to reboot and then disconnect once its at the slide screen..
You should be good to go now, you can always try another flavor but if you want to use it, the stock OS is better than a brick.
You may be familiar with most of the steps I mentioned above but I thought I would take you through them all in the event you are not and also for others who may have the same issue…

btw volume down+home+power button is called download mode. recovery mode is different. And also your tutorial mentions xposed uninstaller. how to use uninstaller if phone bootloops and we don't have twrp recovery? :/
Sorry, my fault. I have edit it to download mode. Thx for correcting.
I don't find any boot loop. And if you do, then you can try reflashing the phone back to stock.
the original recovery is still there.
you can as well install TWRP but you will find that red kernel error on boot (enforcing).
and you can only boot to TWRP by using NDR utils -- not with buttons.
its the 6th time am getting into bootloop

What is TWRP?
I quote
TWRP is an open source, community project. TWRP development is done by roughly 4 people at this point. We also have a large support community with many people who are willing to answer questions and help people with their devices either through our IRC channel or on forums like xda-developers.
Team Win was originally formed to work on porting WiMAX to CM7 for the HTC EVO 4G. After our work on the EVO 4G we wanted to work on a project that would work on more devices than just the EVO 4G and we settled on working on a recovery. Today TWRP is the leading custom recovery for Android phones.
WHAT IS THE USE OF INSTALLING TWRP?
TWRP is used for installing custom software on your device. This custom software can include smaller modifications like rooting your device or even replacing the firmware of the device with a completely custom "ROM" like OmniROM.
You can find the source code for TWRP at github.com/omnirom/android_bootable_recovery/

I just followed your upgrade instructions and was successfully able to upgrade from TWRP 2.7.x and it works great! Results were instant and I was also able to immediately successfully flash a custom ROM to my SM-T230NU. Thanks so much for posting this!

This is where you lost me.
I have Odin v3.12, and it only has one AP button, but no PDA button.
I clicked on AP button in Odin, and selected the twrp image.tar file. Check.
Then you tell me to click on the AP button again and select the CWM file, but if I do that, then the twrp file is no longer selected.
I'm afraid to guess because even though it's old, I don't want to brick this thing.

To get TWRP on my device, I followed the instructions listed here: tab-4/orig-development/twrp-install-twrp-root-samsung-galaxy-t3111934
(I can't post links. Just put forum.xda-developers in front of that)
Instead of using TWRP 3.0.0 or 2.8, I used this newest verison with Odin 3.09 (instead of 3.12)
And it worked on my T230NU
"SOMEONE ANYONE" ...those mysterious instructions entries...
i probably qualify as an anyone, that is im doing this for the first time, though i have some experience with doing the same thing to my old HP Touchpad (tenderloin) device over and over again over the years, to keep it from throwing up alerts about apps stopping... So yes i was confused by the same glitches in the instructions since i dont want to brick my old tablet and try to follow instructions exactly:
A) in STEP 2:
"Device Added on ODIN"
>> no Odin doesnt actually print those words out, i think the op is sort of restating the sentence above it.
B) in STEP 3:
"Click on the AP button (PDA in many Odin versions) and select the CWM recovery file"
>> I think this is just a copy/paste error the op took from some other post and never cleaned up, presumably CWM refers to ClockWorkMod which is different recovery in itself, and i don't suspect you can have two recoveries installed, no? plus, its not mentioned anywhere else in this thread no link of anything, so i just ignored that line and proceeded according to the rest of the instructions.
C) STEP 4:
"Select the ODIN Options"
>> another instance of repeating whats already been instructed in the sentence above it.
So I just ignored the items noted above, the only other thing i did that is different from this thread is i had previously installed the samsung USB drivers noted as seemingly important in other threads, i dont know if that matters since ive never tried it without them, but anyways, I hit 'start' and it worked fine and said PASS in about 5 seconds, then a bit later rebooted, but took a couple minutes to get out of the Samsung logo boot screen -i almost thought it was bricked for a moment there- but it finally came through and it all seems okay. so now i can reboot into TWRP and see all of its options, so now im ready to give a try to install the Pixelized OS!
For my T230NU, TWRP reboots (crashes) reliably in the middle of the wiping-the-cache process:
The TWRPs i tried are "twrp-3.0.0-0-degas.img.tar", "twrp-3.2.1-0-degas.img.tar" , "twrp-3.3.0-0-degas.img.tar"
I selected the usual four items to wipe: "Dalvic cache", "cache", "system", "Data"
(the built-in one-swipe factory-reset wipe crashes just the same)
I installed them all with Odin 3.12.3
This older version seems just fine: "openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-degas.tar"
Will this image work with Verizon Tablet SM-T537V?
Hey, will this work on degaswifi (regular SM-T230)?

Flashed it successfully on my SM-T230NU, however I am also experiencing a crash during a built-in wipe. I reverted back to v3.0.0 and it seems to be working as expected. Thanks,

I have a SM-T230NU (nook). It freezes at boot after the "nook" logo screed is displayed. When I power down it immediately reboots to the same logo screen and again freezes. I can't turn it off without taking the back off and unplugging the battery. When I plug the battery back in after a few minutes, it stays off until I try to boot again and the same cycle repeats itself. Any ideas how to fix this.
