Can any one help me I was trying to boot my samsung epic into recovery mode and I let go of the camera button to early now my phone gets stuck in between the boot up please help if u can thank you
if you let go of the button it should start up normally... Did you root with cwm3? it may be converting to ext4. First time I did it my phone converted like 10 times. lol... But I'm sure we will need more information as to what all was on the device our what your did to it such as root and roms

Hey wats going on to answer your question I followed drockstars instructions on how to root your phone without a pc and it worked well then I installed cwm2 and it worked but when I powered off and tried to boot into recovery mode to flash a rom it got stck at the samsung screen wat do I do
If you have access to a computer I would try poison back to stock. And I've never tried the root without a pc so can't help much there:/ sorry. Best bet would be odin tho as far a I know

What rom did you flash thru cwm2.x?
Edit; I think I missed that, you where just booting into cwm via 3 finger and it didn't boot into cwm?
Edit edit; if you pull the battery and try to boot into cwm again, does it still get stuck st the samscreen?
How can I use the pc if I cant boot the phone to the main screen will it still work. Im sorry as you can tell I'm new to this

When I take the battery out and try the three finger boot it just stays on the samsung screen it won't go into recovery mode
Ok here are some vids, the first one is how to root without a pc and he also made how to use odin. Check those out and come back here if you have any questions. Your phone is recoverable, it just may take a bit of work.

Lol.....chances are you may have missed a tidbit of info. Check out odin then, it sounds like it may be your saving grace, also there's an odin thread in the development section. Its all up to date.

Try flashing zedomax v3 kernel with odin and see what happens. Or if you have cwm recovery download a rom wipe cache and flash it.
can i just flash the rom like on the evo from the sd card??? in clockwork mod??
i put a rom on my memory card but when i go to clock work mod it is not there......

I am stuck in a perpetual loop of moving threads to Q&A! What should I do?
Oh - yeah - move to Q&A. Silly me.
I think if I'm not mistaking you have to put the rom in your internal memory NOT the sd card. Try that
how can i put in on the internal memory if it's stuck in boot loop???
Can u go into recovery? Of so go into recovery then USB mode
ok i am at the clock work mod recovery screen now what do i do???
ok put it in usb mode but the computer is not even recognizing that's it's connected
i will never flash or root my phone again this is ridiculous.
Do u have the drivers installed? Make sure the drivers are installed, or try a different wire
phew even though i had done it before i flashed the stock kernel waited and i'll be darn if it didn't boot up.....
cool. next step: click the thanks button a few times for the kind soul (aaron130) who patiently stuck with you as you worked it out

so when you reboot your device it goes back to downloading mode directly???
becasue when i try same thing like you .. my phone was rebooting but it got stuck on the Samsung Logo.
what i know is ... you can you Volume up + home button+on.off button to go to recovery mode
so when you press all 3 together and see Samsung Galaxy on device .. release them... and it will go to recovery mode...
for me it works like that.
i am newbie to Android... so i am telling you this from my personal information.
give it a try if you feel like

Well you can only get into download mode. So you need to install a custom recovery using odine. CWM is short for clockwork mod recovery. Find a how to and install cwm using odine.
Another custom recovery is TWRP. I like using TWRP. Has a nice touch interface.

If you have a computer download a Rom of your liking then install meaning find the file on your sd card then flash it? I recommend something close to the stock Rom then try new ones btw make a back up of your stock rom!!!!!! P.s. Look at YouTube for tutorials on how to?

To be more clear.
You said you can't boot into recovery. You can only boot into download mode. What download mode means is that you have to install cwm from a computer using odine. You connect your phone to a computer using a USB cable. Boot your phone into download mode. Open odine on your PC select the cwm odine file and push it to your phone. Disconnect your phone from your pc. Then you can put a ROM on your exSDcard and boot into recover and install the ROM.
Do a search on xda on how to install cwm using odine. I'm not going to write how to do it here cause you can search and do it your self. Good luck

If you still have access to your custom recovery then go to freeza's thread and download one of his Stock ROMs.

how would i put that on my sd card tho?
Take your sd card out and put it in a micro SD to SD adapter if your computer has a SD slot. B. Use another phone and put your SD card in that. C. Rule of thumb always make backup and if you did just go to restore and restore your saved ROM. D. Use Odin and restore that way YouTube a Qbking video about flashing threw Odin.

What is the version of CWM you are using?
Have you tried flashing a new or different recovery, like TWRP maybe?
What is the exact process you are using when the installation fails?
Go here and download TWRP 2.4.4.0 & CWM Touch 6.0.2.8 - place them on your external sd card via the above described method/s then try flashing the CWM recovery and then rebooting to recovery. Now try flashing a Stock ROM (make sure you're checking the MD5 to verify a good download) if that doesn't work then try the TWRP recovery, etc...

Try holding Volume Down, home, and the Power buttons. This will get you into download mode. Then Odin a stock TAR file using a method displayed in QBKing77's videos. Search around, you'll find something. If you're still unable to find anything after a while, give me about an hour and I'll help. Good luck!

We are not specific and are not spoon feeding you because this not done that way. You HAVE to spend time and learn what is what. The answers you need and the help you need are already here. If you're expecting download links and screenshots you shouldn't be modifying your phone. The whole point of this community is to learn and share the knowledge - not spoon feed.
Go to the TWRP thread, read up and download the tar that you need to flash through odin. Look for the MJ5 bootloader (hint: look up Wanam's ROM thread, that's one of the many places). After you got these two, boot to TWRP and flash the ROM.
Finally, as long as your phone gets into download mode, it's not bricked. And you got to do something incredibly foolish to make it not boot into bootloader. That said, it would be prudent to learn and act rather than blindly execute what you read - I said the same thing in not so many words in my reply to you in the DN3 ROM thread.

So you successfully flashed the recovery via odin but you are not able to boot into it?
When u are in samsung note 2 boot screen keep pressed volume up, home and power buttons. When phone reboots and shows u samsung note 2 bootscreen then release the power button but keep pressed the others two until the phone boot in recovery. Try this and tell me what happen.

In Philz recovery neither sd card worked neither data of phone. In twrp only sd card works. BTW weird problem. The recovery after flashing it from odin works only once ( after i turn off the device) the recovery doesnt work after....i dont know whats going on
I've been reading a LOT about rooting for the past few weeks and understood everything perfectly and I DO know how to recover my phone from accidental soft bricks but whenever I boot to download mode and run odin i start shaking and end up doing nothing..I really want to root but Im too scared..what do you think I should do?

Root it man,there is nothing to fear. If you doing it exactly how it writen in instructions,there is nothing to worry about. just don`t plug off your phone and let it complete. It`s last ~ 10 sec,and you`ll be good
I don`t think something whould happen,since a lot of us done it and we are happy rooted users

This isnt going very well with me..I just tried flashing philz touch and it said reset instead of pass? nothing happened to my phone (can still open my phone and all) but i panicked when i saw that message.. any idea?
Stock ROM flashes stock recovery on boot, that's why Philz doesn't stick.

You used Autoroot,or what?
Odin sometimes stucks on RESET,it`s not telling you that something went wrong. Start worry if you see FAIL
Did you tryed to enter recovery?

No man, you lose it when you flash official samsung rom, then your device will be able to get OTA updates from samsung. So called " Unroot "
Great to hear that all passed smoothly to you! :good:
