Hi all.
I have a phone Samsung 920I not "L"
OK to start from the beginning. I am new to this and followed steps from watching Channel48 on YouTube. Not blaming him it's just so you have an Idia of where I got my info from.
Instlled Odin
I installed twrp-3.1.0-0-zeroflte.img and it didn't work.
I then found twrp-3.3.1-0-zeroflte.img and installed it over the top, Now works when booting into recovery.
I then installed 920F Samsung recover file that was only about 25Mb in size and got my phone working again.
left it for a day then tried again.
Installed twrp-3.3.1-0-zeroflte.img with Oden. works
Installed: EvolutionX_4.1.69_zerofltexx-10.0-20200331-0232-OFFICIAL Works I was happy Looked at "About" and it now says my phone is 920F :/ Andoird 10 cool it works so who cares if it says 920F right!!!
I then booted back into Recovery and Installed: open_gapps-arm64-10.0-pico-20200228 and that said it successfully installed and I swiped to restart the phone.
My phone powered off and that's where this ends.
I have tried holding the power button for about 30sec and nothing happens I tried plugging into the charger and it doesn't respond to show it's charging
Is there something I can do now or is the phone dead This is my main phone as I love the Samsung S6 over the rest because it has the main buttons, not on touchscreen and IR so I can use the phone as a remote.
Thanks
edit. update
I got my phone working again. I will leave this thread incase someone else asks the same thing.
How I got my phone to work again. This is what I found on Google search and I will BOLD the option that turned my phone on.
Press and hold Power button for more than 20 seconds to check whether it turns on your phone or not.
Press and hold Volume Up button for a few seconds and without releasing the Volume up button, press and hold Power button until your screen displays something.
Press and hold Volume Up button for a few seconds and without releasing the Volume up button, press and hold the Power + Home buttons until your screen displays something.
Press and hold Volume Down button for a few seconds, without releasing the Volume down button, press and hold Power button (totally 2 buttons) until your screen displays something.
Press and hold Volume Down button for a few seconds and without releasing the Volume down button, press and hold Power button + Home button until your screen displays something.

Can anyone tell me how to reset to the bootloader? I am wanting to flash the Leo and first i want to install hardspl of course. In the tutorial it says 'hold power button and reset to see the verison'.
when i do that, the volume screen keeps on/active and i can't use tap the reset button. So how is the volume screen made invisible, or is there another keycombination to press when holding volume down?
ok your doing it all wrong
turn the phone off (press and hold call end / power - select power off)
when the phone has turned off-
press and hold the volume down button, keep it pressed down
press the power button briefly (1 second)
when the "red green blue" bootloader screen appears, you can release volume down
as the meerkats say, simples
Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to q&a
yep, i apparently did it all wrong! thanks for the explanation
i haven't experienced this but in case it happens, what if the phone enters a bootloop, how does someone go about turning the phone off (since you cant battery pull) and get into the bootloader/recovery??
hold power key for about 10 seconds or so.don't let go until phone turns off.
EDIT: Here you go Page 24. It says Note: If the phone hangs and the touchscreen does not respond, press and hold "power" for about 10 seconds to restart the phone.
EDIT 2: Also found this here
Symptom #2:
If the device cannot power on, and seems that it cannot be charged, it could be that the device is not in default operation mode. This can be caused when the “volume up key” was pressed while pressing the “power” key when device was last powered down. To power on and off the device normally, please be careful to not hold down any other hardware key while pressing the power key during power up operations.
How to fix:
1. Press & hold the power button for up to ~ 20 seconds. The capacitive keys (three keys at bottom of screen) should begin flashing. This indicates that a reset is imminent. Continue to hold power until they stop flashing.
2. Release the power key
3. Press the power key again for 1 second. Wait a few seconds and the device should then power on

Yeah I don't think that actually helps with a true bootloop. Restarting the device is just looping another boot. lol.
Try just holding down the vol-down button through one of the bootloops. Not sure that will work ... but worth a try.
Update - While holding power button and volume up then letting go of volume up after
2 or 3 seconds while both screen black or on first boot screen for a nano second I
get a standing up android with blue atoms going around it's stomach. then goes
onto the lying down android with red triangle. Will I need to insert an sd card with some
kind of software downloaded on it for this whole format to work?
Here's all the problems. Woke up in morning and tablet chose to be stuck on 'android' animated(shine effect going across 'Android')
boot screen. I have made no modifications to the files etc, just stopped working.
To help you maybe know what tablet i got here are the two boot screens:
(Well i would post images if the forum didn't have silly restrictions on it)

Anyway looked all over the net and the seen power button & volume key and it doesn't work. Here's what I get and what i tried.
#1 (tried both volume key plus and minus button)
Hold volume and power button until first screen
appears then next let go of power button but still holding
volume key just goes and get stuck at 'android logo' screen.
(I have also carried on holding power button through to second load screen too.
But! Holding down power button and volume up button until 1st screen with tiny
little android in circle then releasing power button takes me to the green android lying down
with red triangle
#2 (tried both volume key plus and minus button)
Hold power button until first screen appears
then next hold volume key and still holding
volume key but release power button just goes and get stuck at 'android logo' screen.
(I have also carried on holding power button through to second load screen too.)
Basically to cut it short I have looked via google search and come across plenty of forums
and tried to access the screen which lets me format the device but so far has become uncessesful
I hope the images help you know which device I have and also the photo of the tablet it's self to help you know
(it has no buttons on it except the power and volume key and has no small(tiny) or big reset button to press
from what I can tell.
(Again i would post an image here too if it didn't have silly restrictions)

Hello @Vokko,
I put out the battery and waited about 2 days until it was empty but unfortunately it was not successful.
Iam still looking for a solution.
Have you tried holding the volume down button and the power button (keep both pressed, don't let power button go)?

If I connect with PC and hold volume down + power button I see "APX" in other devices.
Sorry, I forgot your model uses volume up + power button to access recovery. Unplug from computer, turn off then hold volume up and power button together (don't just press power briefly but keep it and volume buttons held down) to see if it enters recovery.
