Galaxy S III File Recover via Bootloader? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I finally got my Galaxy SIII up and running again last night by removing the power button. (I had the power button defect.)
Unfortunately, the phone restarted itself and now gets "Unfortunately com.android.systemui has stopped" on boot. This is a problem since it loops continuously rendering the phone useless.
Can I enter Recovery Mode? I tried holding Vol Up and Home while plugging in the phone but it just vibrates over and over again.
Can I retrieve data off the phone through Bootloader/download? I have a few SMS I would like to keep / photos sitting on the phone.
I was running LiquidSmooth 3.0
Thanks!

Vibant on Froyo keeps rebooting @ logo, no error messages

The phone was working fine after the update to Froyo. Been working for two days now without issues. Today I wanted to mod my crappy case for the phone so that I could actually press the power button.
Now (out of the case or in), when i power on the device, it gets to the Galaxy S logo screen and just keeps cycling. I tried the three button trick (volume keys with power) but it just keeps cycling.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
It's a Bell phone on running a Fido sim.
Update: I tried using Odin and it goes to install the firmware and does a reset of the phone and it continues in the boot loop

It certainly sounds like the power button is shorted out, send for warranty repair.

this happened to me once. i removed the battery for a few minutes. then put it back and immediately entered the recovery mode. i hold the combo for a long time so that the samsung logo appears for 3 times and after the 3rd time, i released the combo and it entered the recovery mode. may/may not work for you. but worth trying? sounds funny but worked for me unexpectedly!!

Bootloop CM 11

Hello,
I recently flashed CM 11 to my One X +
Was all working fine until I noticed that my SIM contacts are gone. So I decided to change back to Android Revolution HD.
In my wisdom, I flashed the boot.img first and restarted. So now I'm stuck in a bootloop and I can't get out of it since the phone does not
go into fastboot anymore.
The three buttons (back, home and the weird thing on the right) just keep flashing red when I press power + volume down.
Just pressing power has the same effect btw. So I'm completely stuck and hoping for some help?
So you need to force a power off. The lights at the bottom will flash 3 or 4 times alerting you that you are forcing a power down of the device. This is NORMAL.
I recommend holding the power and volume down to try to get it out of the boot loop, and into the boot-loader. Hopefully before you flashed CWM 11 you made a Nandroid backup in your recovery, in which case you can restore it and everything should be A-ok as it will restore the boot.img and the rom along with your contacts and apps.
Otherwise you will need to reflash the Rom as usual. Eventually with a boot loop the device runs out of battery, and will power down on its own. At which point you can (usually) charge it enough to re-flash, via entering the bootloader by pressing power and volume down. Then you can just enter recovery, and flash the rom from there.
Did you load the ROM to the internal memory, if you need to re-flash I hope? If not, then you can push or sideload the ROM via adb.

OS Update, Froze and now constantly restarts. Stuck! :(

Hi I need some advice please.
I have a Samsung 64GB S6 Edge, currently received an official update on Three UK Network.
I ran the update and during my phone restarted and now constantly restarts to the "Three.co.uk" screen, freezes then restarts again over and over.
I looked up how to factory reset but none of the combinations work, when I hold the volume menu and power button it brought up a "custom OS firmware" screen. I had the option to volume up for download OS or down to restart. Volume up goes to a download screen and freezes on that. Volume down sends it back to square one.
Can you advise me on my next step please? Is there a way to connect it to a PC for a forced update or reset.
Much appreciated.
Update, I allowed the phone to die. plugged it into the charger and volume, power, menu worked this time. i performed a factory reset. issue still occurs. restarts to three screen and freezes for a while until it restarts again

Use Samsung smartsync to do an emergency firmware recovery on a mac or PC.

Android phone wont boot (I think Soft/Hard bricked) (Unable to boot in recovery mode)

Hello,
Phone in question: Galaxy Ace 3 - GT-S7275R
A short summary of my issue and how it happend: Yesterday evening my phone was suddenly turned off before i went to bed and i turned it back on and it said it was doing an android software update, but my phone normally never gets an update. And when it was turned on it received pop up message with the message: ..... app has stopped. (facebook, Google Play, YouTube, ...) And i left it untill the morning and i rebooted it then but it was again the same so i tried another reboot and then it wouldn't start up.
So now my phone wont start while pressing the power button, i have tried to go in recovery (Volume Up/Down + Home + Power button) but that didn't do anything and if i connect my phone to my pc i hear noises where my device connects then deconnects to the pc.
Does anyone have any solutions for this?
Greetings
