I was going to wipe data via twrp in my tab 4.but suddenly i wipped system too, and when i reboot it went to bootloop. I tried to go into recovery mode but couldn't and also it is not getting in download mode. I tried all but it just power on and hangs in logo. And when i plug in pc via usb while hanging in logo pc recognise my device also odin does recognise. I think after wipping system i wiped whole rom of my device and i think it is empty. So what is the problem can i recover it? It happend just two days ago.

Try to flash your phone back to stock with odin or SmartSwitch , and later if is everything fine try to find stable twrp recovery image.
Can i do that without download mode?

As I know you can't but if you are unable to enter in Download mode using combination keys you can use JIG USB in order to get into Download mode.
Where can i get jig usb? How much does it cost?

Does it boot into recovery mode?
Press Volume UP + Home + Power keys until recovery menu appears.
If yes, then try to wipe cache (and Dalvik cache), fix permissions and reboot.
If that does not help, you may have to wipe data (do a factory reset).
If recovery mode does not work, then your phone seems to be semi-/soft- bricked.
You will have to get the phone connected to your PC in download mode to repair it.
Here is the correspsonding thread about hw to fix a soft-bricked phone => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458
Good luck !
i have gotten it into download mode but my computer does not see the device

I am in require of some urgent help from you... I ROOTED my phone recently and everything was fine, Then today Super SU updated itself and i by mistakely clicked on Install Binary for it.. Since, then it always restarts my mobile in CWM Recovery Mode.
Please HELP ! How do i get back ? to my phone normal mode ?
I Tried connecting my phone through ODIN but the phone isn't getting detected
Plz Help
Your Response is awaited
Thank you very Much
Remove all samsung drivers and kies and reinstall them. After that flash cwm in odin mode. And yes next time select normal method while updating binary. Else u will be into cwm bootloop again.

same thing happened to me..I had the phone back up..tried to restore it first..didn't work. then I reflashed cwm through odin and restored my back up..and it worked fine. and next time updated su binary as normal
Hi Kaushik,
I did all that by removing the Samsung Drivers.. In order to Flash my mobile back odin should detect the usb connection..
It tries to install the USB driver then pops up an error which says "FAILED". I even tried the android drivers on their official website. Doesn't work
Kindly, help

if it goes to cwm recovery then wipe the data first using cwm before connecting via usb..it may help in odin detection. .

Hi Imran,
Do you mean Wipe Data/Factory Reset option ? which is actually the 3rd option in CWM mode.

Hi Everyone,
Now my phone is getting detected via USB, but the problem now is the backlight keeps on flashing every now and then & even during the "FLASH" process through ODIN it doesn't stay long in the "Download Mode". It restarts itself.
What can be the issue ? Is it the battery ?

what r u flashing..is it cwm then untik the auto reboot option.....and reboots in what...
Thank you everyone.. The problem now has been resolved.
1. Initially, The USB connection wasn't getting detected,.. That's because i wasn't able to go to the download mode and always used to be welcomed with CWM Recovery Mode.
2. After trying so many things, the battery got depleted which created problems in reflashing the CWM to get rid of boot loop.
3. The Battery wasn't getting charged through Wall Socket charger initially and got it some how charged through CWM Mode for half an hour
4. Plugged the USB connection back and got into the Download Mode and then Voila ! the usb connection was detected and i reflashed it.. The Boot loop is no more there..
Thank you guys

A a fully depeleted battery will take some time to register some charge or if its charging at all , ideally taking a battery to that level is not advisable but anyway all's well that end's well :good:
Hi everyone.
I have a i9300 and it is stuck in rebooting.
Power key is ok.
I can get it to download mode or recovery mode.
I can wipe cache and partition but nothing change, it keeps rebooting.
I cant use odin because odin didn't see the phone,
I think USB debugging wasn't on. But I cant find a way to open it without turning on.
I am looking for possibilities and solution for 2 days and I cant find any. Please help me.
bootloop
It seems you are stuck in a boot loop. Try clearing the cache & perform a full factory wipe. Then reboot your device.
Hope that helps.

If you've cleared the partition structure then you've turned a possible soft brick into a hard brick, you'll need a new motherboard now.
Try flashing the rescue firmware, from the thread in general, but I wouldn't hold out any hope.

HI guys i have exactly the same problem but my bootloop was caused by installing recovery through the cwm app and then rebooting to recovery through the app. i rebooted to recovery with an app before and it caused this aswell ...however back then my volume down button was working. i fixed it last time by going into download mode and flashing philz recovery however i cant enter download mode or recovery or boot into system.
PS: my phone doesnt boot into recovery it comes up with the samsung galaxy s3 gt 19300 logo then it comes up with the cwm recovery icon in the middle of my screen and 'clockwordmod recovery v6.0.6.4' at the bottom of the screen then restarts itself.
i dont know what to try i have looked around, didnt want to create a new thread just wanted to find out if anyone has any idea of what i can do except for buying a new volume down button thats my last resort apprently its £35 to fix
easy way to fill up you thanks meter guys as any sort of input and advice is extremely appreciated.
alphadavid99 you fried your lcd when you flashed cwm made for note in the other thread.
Hi i have the issue... I am able to get in Recovery and Download Mode.
While in recovery i had formatted the whole internal memory and tried flashing about three AOSP ROMs (Formatting each time before Flashing) but the only result was the endless boot up screen (not boot loop).
Then i tried flashing a sammy ROM and it worked...
Could someone tell me why am I able to flash Sammy ROM but not AOSP (such as ARCHIDROID & SLIMBEAN).
My Model is GT-i9300
Current Modem - XXUGMK6
Current ROM - S4 Revolution ROM (TM)
Thanks in advance for your time if someone has any suggestions
The story:
Got a phone with some software problems when calling from a spouse. Tried to update the ROM and it bricked.
Status:
endless loop of bootscreen
could enter recovery mode and boot CWR
can not enter download mode
unable to boot system
Tried endless guides and instructions with stock ROM's and firmwares. Some of them installed some didnt - none worked. Still in endless loop.
Gave up yesterday and went to bed to keep trying today.
Now its totally bricked.
- no recovery mode
- no download mode
- no boot screen
- cant connect to PC via USB (Odin wont recoqnize)
The only sign of life - whatever I do it has black screen with backlight on but nothing else.
What can I do? They say that a broken phone is only with hardware problems but could I have f**** up the software so much that its the same?

You can try this guide by @SuperMini to force open Download Mode from odin. Here is the link,
How to unbrick Samsung Galaxy Ace
Make sure to use the key combination of Download Mode for your device as the one mentioned in the guide is for Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830. If that doesn't work, then you can try the USB Jig (not always guaranteed to work). If USB Jig did work, then it will force open the Download Mode so you can flash stock rom back using odin. If USB Jig doesn't work either, then your last option is to consult the Service Center. Do post the result. Hope I Helped

1. make sure you have installed drivers on your computer
2. remove battery > connect phone to computer > press volume buttons and lock key
3. if you get a black screen just press the volume up button.
odin will recognize the device
if this does not work then try multi-formatter
using it, format rfs partition and then install some custom rom.

Had a problem with my htc one m8, so i pulled out my i9100 backup phone.
it had neat rom 4.1.2 on it, and everything was working fine.
i have tried to flash onmi rom():
1. entered recovery mode
2. backed up CWM to external SDCARD.
3.flased "CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.zip" & rebooted into new recovery.
4.installed "omni-4.4.2-20140214-i9100-INFECTED.zip".
5.installed "pa_gapps-modular-micro-4.4.2-20140207-signed.zip"
6.installed "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip".
after that, when i wanted to reboot, i got a message saying i could loose su and if i want to fix it, i choosed "NO".
device entered to a boot loop.
i tought no biggy, i would go back to recovery, flash philz CWM and recover my nandroid backup.
it will not get into recovery mode.
tried again, pulled the battery, put it back, hold down VOL-Down+home+power button, and nothing, boot loops over and over again.
tried to get into download mode, not going there as well.
connecting to a pc with ADB+samsung drivers, the device wont show up.
Any suggestions? did i bricked the phone forever?

Are you sure that the phone doesn't boot into the download mode(Vol Up+Powe+Home) ??
If that's the case, then I'm afraid that your phone is hard bricked forever. You have to fix/replace the motherboard then(about $50). You can go to the service center and get it done, or check out this video(JTAG METHOD): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zN7le4GmxZs
I hope something works out for you.

yes, i'm sure :'( its not my first time with the device.
i have ordered a usb jig from ebay, maybe it will force the device into download mode...if not... :\
just got my USB jig i have ordered from ebay(less than a dollar), plugged it to the phone, and it got into download mode!
used odin to flash stock rom, and then installed cyanogenmod with the cm installer.
everything is working fine!
I know this is late, but I wanna ask a question. Firstly I'm happy that your bricked phone came back to life(like how many years ago).
Can a USB jig work on any other phone brand other than Samsung phones? Can it be used for tecno, infinix, and all that? Or it is dedicated to only Samsung mobiles?
