I recently tried to flash myth's ROM on my Galaxy Ace. After flashing was completed, I rebooted the phone but it was stuck on the very first boot screen that has SAMSUNG and www.samsung.com written under it. I can't access recovery but I can access download. I tried reflashing CWM, I get PASS in ODIN but still can't boot into recovery. Any ideas?
Press the following buttons
Power key+home key
Kudos you reached to recovery

Just try to flash a stock rom with odin & see what happens
U have 2 hold power & home untill it reboots & u see green triangle in top left corner instead of a blue 1 on screen that says samsung galaxy ace n fills screen sum roms at least hope this helps.
"WebzyAce"
I know how to get into recovery. But for some reason, the phone won't even let me go into recovery. It's stuck at the bootlogo. Gonna try flashing through odin...
my gf's i9300 (with rooted stock ROM) has got ENCRYPTION FAILED issue
the only button appeared on the screen is "reset device" so i pressed the button and the phone has got into recovery mode
-trying wipe cache and data here cannot be done
-when i rebooted the phone, it couldn't get into the recovery mode and got stucked at the bootscreen (ONLY i9300 logo)
for now, i can only get into the download mode, trying to flash the stock ROM via ODIN and it failed (it said "missing PIT")
try to flash stock ROM with .PIT file has got failure too
any advice to this issue?
thanks.
i have tried flash the recovery and got the same result at the image below
Hi guys
I just installed the GlamourS4 ROM and it worked great. I restarted it a few times and nothing seemed to be wrong. Now I tried to boot into recovery through the power menu, but that didn't work and I'm stuck in a loop with mz S3 trying to boot into recovery but failing to do so.
I already tries to take out the battery and put it back in, but it still tries to boot into faulty recovery. By the way I'm using PhilZ Touch recovery and I can enter download mode.
You can still flash an Odin Version of a recovery with Odin Form your PC. Look for a clockworkmod tar file in the development theead, you should also find flashing instructions there.
I will try and see if it works. Thanks.
Hello,
I have a S3 which is stuck in a bootloop at the samsung logo.
when i turn it on it shows the logo for some seconds then the screen goes black and the logo re-appears.
i can not boot into recovery mode, but download mode is working without a problem every time.
i tried flashing stock firmwares with odin and also tried kies emergency firmware recovery. the flashing always went without any problem, but it had effect. whatever i try, i am never able to boot into recovery and still stuck in the bootloop.
in some tries after flashing the screen just shows the samsung logo forever, but after rebooting it once it then is stuck in a bootloop again (shows the logo - screen goes black - shows the logo...)
i also tried flashing TWRP and CWM via odin, but again i can never boot into recovery mode.
what should i try next?
thx alot for any helpful comment

You can Try this:
1.) Pull out battery
2.) Put it in again
3.) Press Vol up + home + power
4.) When the Samsung Logo appears let it off
I think you press the Buttons too long.
I had the same problem!

i really tried everything, it's not working. btw with i am stuck at the very first image, where it says "samsung Galaxy sII GT-I9300".
i dont think it's just the way i press the buttons because i can reach it on my s1 and s2 without a problem, it's just not working on this device.
could some setting like "nand erase all" in odin help? in other threads there is sometimes mentioned that the internal file system might be screwed up and in those cases a simple odin reflash does not help anymore...
Nand erase will usually hard brick it. Try the rescue firmware from general forum, sticky thread. Follow the guide exactly as it includes a pit file.

thx, but i already did that (multiple times) and flashing via odin always succeeds. then the phone reboots and is stuck at the first samsung galaxy s.. screen. twice i managed somehow to get into recovery (after flashing cwm6) but it then randomly rebooted.
and i dont think that the power button is stuck because when i am in download mode it is perfectly fine it never reboots itself unexpectedly.
Had a similar issue on my tab2 p3100. It all happened when I tried flashing a custom recovery from rom manager.
A bad flash of anything related to recovery or bootloader could be a probable cause.
I remember a knowledge share on one of the threads describing this issue and as mentioned on it all I had to do is this:
1) switch off the device and plug in the charger. This would light up the display showing you the charging status. The status has to show if at least your bootloader part of the phone is fine.
2) plug out the charger and immediately press the three buttons (home + vol up + power) get into recovery mode. This step has to work and help you get to recovery mode.
***Note : the interval within which this step has to be performed is too short since the display would turn off immediately as soon as you plug out the charger. A bit tricky too so you have to be fast. If this misses getting you into recovery, pull out the battery and put it back again. Repeat step1 and 2 again.
3) upon successfully getting into recovery, perform wipe data, cache and select reboot phone from option available on recovery again.
Allow the device to boot. This could take a while since you have performed a data wipe and may prompt for first time set up.
I was able to restore functionality on my tab after these steps and like ppl learn from their mistakes, I then learnt that recoveries and bootloaders are things that needs to be done with a pc only.
Worth a try if you have tried other alternatives and found no go. may help. Who knows..
all the best.
thats also not working. i tried to get into recovery since two days now...
i also tried the steps from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/solved-pit-bricked-dead-problem-gt-t2535367
but again, after i flash the cf-root (successfully) the phone does neither boot into recovery by itself nor can i do it by hand...
its crazy... in download mode i can see the model number (GT-I9300) and i thought as long as the model number is there and i can enter download mode there should be a way to recover the device.
but i cannot think of anything to try that i have not done yet
If the rescue firmware didn't help then it looks like the emmc chip is damaged.

is there a way to make certain of this? how can i tell if it is really a hardware damage and not just a software brick?
i just dont want to let the phone go, it looks still so shiny
is there anything else that could cause the phone not booting into recovery mode after flashing custom recoveries?

Same here, still didn't found how to fix it.. I guess our motherboard just died..
Howewer I have a solution that "almost" worked for me.
Get a stock firmware in odin and turn on Nand erase and T-flash
When it's done phone reboots and you'll see just "Downloading..." mode when you turn it on.
Then got to Kies and Select firmware recovery...
Enter s/n and model name and wait for the flash to complete.
With it , I got past boot logo and actually booted into android but the phone crashed because I guess I have a memory issue..
Well , gl. If you don't find anything else helpful , try going with this method..
So basically, im a noob. i tried flashing stock lollipop on my galaxy s4 from CyanogenMod with odin, but it says not responding everytime pda is clicked. Now, when i try to boot up the phone with recovery mode (vol up home button and lock) it says "Recovery Booting" in the corner and vibrates twice. Then it tries to boot normally but of course fails with the cyanogenmod splash screen eternally spinning. PLZ HELP i have no other phone
Try a different PC and/or version of Odin. Sometimes Odin does that for a couple minutes and then will finish checking the md5 and work fine afterwards. Can be finicky on some computers.

your device is on a bootloop. you can overcome it by flashing last working official firmware of your device.
& for the lollipop update,
Check whether the update of lollipop is in .tar,md5 format then only you can flash it via odin through PDA option. You can even try Odin_v3.09 & select the AP option or simply follow any guide how to use Odin_v3.09
If the update is in .zip format then install a custom recovery to your device and flash it.
Lastly you can restore your phone by flashing official firmware that previously worked on your phone and then try flashing lollipop update with a fresh start.
Let me know for any other assistance
