[Q] Urgent. Phone keeps booting in recovery - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
Today i tried JKAY framework, installing went fine.
But when I rebooted my phone it goes straight to recovery.. I tried flashing my rom again (wanamlite) but still goes straight to recovery.
Another thing is that if my phone is off and I plug in the USB it turns on by itself.
I can't restore a backup I made because of a md5 mismatch so I'm at a lose here.
Any idea what has happened and if I permanently destroyed my phone?

Try an ADB shell while in recovery and generate a md5 sum through ADB SHELL md5sum and wait for it to finish.
Then restore your NANDROID backup...

Or try to flash a stock rom with ODIN or emergency firmware upgrade in KIES.
The second one will install your carrier's latest firmware based on your phone's serial number

I assume you mean adb shell via windows.
C:\ADB>adb shell md5sum
If so, it's taking quite some time.
Already tried with kies but it doesn't connect properly . I can only see whats on my external sdcard.

Mmmhhh... Maybe you should flash a stock rom, root it and modify it's recovery, boot, and do the ADB trick from a command prompt or from a terminal emulator from the phone itself.
And it takes it's time to generate the md5 sum. Just don't desesperate and have faith

What's the ADB-Trick?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

The md5checksum trick didn't work. I still get a md5 mismatch.
Downloading a stock firmware to flash via odin.
And what exactly do you mean by modifying the boot and recovery?

I meant installing cd-root for your kernel and hijack the recovery
Enviado desde mi GT-I9300 usando Tapatalk 2

Ah yes, ok. I get flashing cf-root, but hijacking the recovery I'm unfamiliar with.
I hope I'm not being a complete noob by asking you this.

You are not. Only don't have this particular knowledge....
Fortunately you came to the right place.
Search for CWM recovery, download it once rooted, and follow instructions to get it to work...
Hijacking means substituting stock CWM with a much more advanced one
Enviado desde mi GT-I9300 usando Tapatalk 2

Ah, Philz for example?
I just finished flashing a stock rom and it works just like it got out of the factory

That was the idea...
Enviado desde mi GT-I9300 usando Tapatalk 2

Oh I understand hijacking recovery now hehe. So something like Philz recovery?

Yes, Philz recovery gives you many more options and tools when things go wrong.

thank's mate
You said that you get (!) when flashing something from sd card, right???
Copy update.zip to some other sd card and try to flash from it.
Here're steps for flashing rom with fastboot:
Go to fastboot mod by clicking 3 times power button and volume down button when toshiba logo appear. Then, connect you tablet to computer via usb(if you don't have drivers-for windows and if you don't have fastboot binary-linux and mac go here). Now, unpack update.zip file in some directory. Then, open terminal, go to that directory(from terminal-cd /path-to-that-directory/) and type this(to erase system partition):
Code:
fastboot erase system
then type this(to flash system partition)
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
This to flash kernel partition:
Code:
fastboot flash linux boot.img
and this to flash recovery partition:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
At the end, erase date and cache:
Code:
fastboot -w
You can flash all at once:
Code:
fastboot flash all
(I'm not sure for this, I never tried this one)
Play a little and you might fix your tablet
Good luck!!!
thank's i will and i will let you know
i cant flash/root my folio 100...i tried with fastboot and superoneclick...

I never had a problem with other roms but with 3.04 yes.
Any help?
Thanks

With what method you tried? Erase system partition(fastboot erase system) and flash update.zip
I used the two but it didnt works. I fix it installing after the rom the kernel that you post in the thread. Thanks for the help!
But I have SOD in my tablet. I installed your patch but dont works.

CWM recovery is included in kernel [in Xperia devices], so if you want a cwm, just flash a custom kernel (through flashtool).
consider that the kernel must be compatible with your ROM
If I can remember well there was a script written in shell to install CWM from Linux, just open the terminal and change to the directory where CWM files are and type:
Code:
sudo su
source install.sh
BTW, wrong section
Enviado desde mi ST25i mediante Tapatalk
It's simply. You must flash boot.img or kernel.elf.
First install fastboot (on Ubuntu 13.10)
sudo apt-get install android-tools-fastboot.
Second move boot.img or kernel.elf in home.
Open terminal:
sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img (or kernel.elf).
It's the best way
Maybe he has locked bootloader

thanks guys...
but flashing boot.img from a custom rom using flashtool is more convinient for me...
thanks to you all...

How do I revert to stock rom? -zenfone 2

I've tried to find a satisfactory answer via search and stickies, but I couldn't.
As far as I can see I just need to install a stock asus rom, without any unrooting or anything?
I'm not taking about OTA, I want my phone to be as it was bought.
Currently I'm rooted with twrp recovery.
Zenfone 2 551ML model.
Thanks alot!

You need to flash stock recovery and then flash the stock firmware from the stock recovery ADB.
Stock recovery is a must to flash the stock rom from adb

I just flashed back to stock this morning, and one thing you definitely need is patience! There were a few steps where it seemed like the process had frozen, but I had to wait and it completed.
I was coming from TWRP 2.8.7.6, CM12.1 Unofficial. The steps that I did were:
Update Recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img
each command failed with:
FAILED (remote: Permission denied)
but that's ok, they really worked.
Rebooting into recovery gave the dead android with “error”, but manual method one got me into recovery
When you see a dead android bot with an error press and hold power button, then (while holding power button) quickly press Vol up and release and then release power button.
From recovery choose:
apply update from ADB
From PC: adb sideload UL-Z00A-WW-2.20.40.156-user.zip
It went fairly quickly to 52% and “Updating IFWI” but stuck there for 10 minutes before slowly resuming the % updates.
The whole process took ~20 minutes
From recovery
wipe data/factory reset
This also took a long time… ~ 20 minutes
The whole thing took about an hour, and there were two times that it really seemed stuck, but it was still silently working and finally started to update again and then completed.
Thank you! This should go stickie.

Broken recovery?

Hi guys, today I booted into recovery (stock) only to see this:
http://imgur.com/a/XSIpt
and this
http://imgur.com/a/Esq2n
Once every 5 seconds or so it briefly shows the message "TFlash card is not existed"
The phone is Allview P5 Lite (MT6735M - Android 6.0 Marshmallow)
Any ideas?
Are you sure that's the recovery? Maybe try booting the phone in normal mode, then enable USB debugging, connect your device to the PC and reboot to recovery using the command *adb reboot recovery*.

Maybe you should consider flashing the stock recovery, if you have the stock firmware.

I can't find it anywhere. I found here on xda a twrp for MT6735m (my cpu as well) but I don't know if it's safe to flash it, look here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-2-0-unofficial-port-t3439197
I know I first have to unlock the bootloader, I know how to, then flash the twrp using fastboot, but my only concern is that it'll brick my device somehow, because the recovery above is for ZTE Blade. Can you tell me if it's safe to flash it?
It's not only unsafe, it's also not going to work. You need your stock recovery to be able to port and use a custom recovery like TWRP.

Maybe I'll be able to put my hands on the stock recovery, but can you point me an useful guide on how to port (I don't know what this actually means in the context) the custom recovery?
Okay, get your stock recovery first of all, flash it and see how it goes. Installing a custom recovery(e.g TWRP) will come later.

Le max 2 x820 remains stuck on startup

Hello,
My max 2 x820 remains stuck on startup after flashing LineageOS15 ROM plus openGapps with TWRP recovery. I tried to reflash the same ROM and saw error 20: "openGapps does not match the version 8 of Android, replace with the good version".
I said that I can not reset the phone or transfer another ROM from the computer because no connection between them except a sound when you plug the cable.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Hello. If you can enter TWRP try adb devices. IF works wipe tha phone. Use ADB sideload to install ROM as sell as google apps. Use apropriate version of gapps.
