I installed CMW 6.x-r#4 on Samsung Tab 3 8.0 (SM-T310) and Recovery display looked not right size. How can I fix it?

each time i press a button (VOLUP,VOLDOWN) it toggles the display of the status/output so I only get to "see" my selected action every other press but the actions is selected regardless. So it works but is clumsy. I'll try to get some pics of it so you can see.

I have got my Note II rooted and flashed the Android Revolution HD Rom.
Everything was fine and it worked smoothly.
But after installation of many apps, a problem turned out yesterday:
The menu button function has been mapped to the home button, which means when I pressed the home button, it will detected as menu button instead.
After that, I use the KEY TEST in the CWM Recovery to test the key setting.
I found that the home button is wrongly detected as the menu key. (It returns the same Code 139 when I pressed the two buttons)
the result shown as attached
How can I fixed this problem by reset the hard key map setting?
Please Help
Thanks so much!
So I was watching a show on my tablet. and then the tablet just froze. I tried to reboot it. and the screen just stays stuck at the Samsung Load screen. I have Team Win Recovery installed on it. So I used the commands to get into it. and see if I could reboot and reset through there. But when I go to reboot it tells me my System has no OS do I still want to reboot, reset or whatever I try to do.
My PC isn't recognizing my device. So I can open it up at all. I did not have a SD card in my Tablet. but I do have one in my phone and it does fit into my Note III so I believe it should/would work for any steps I may need to do to help fix this problem. Any ideas or suggestions on how to deal with this?
I've seen this before...
...THIS MAY OR MAY NOT work (CAPS for emphasis only).
The way we solve that because the symptoms you are describing are often the result of a corrupted cache that effects that startup of processes in the background. Clearing the cache might help if the following doesn't work, but don't clear it first because going through this process sometimes requires that whatever data is in the cache remain undisturbed...
(Remember, Android is just a portable version of Linux).
Part 1 of 2 - Enter Safe Mode (ignore all other directions except for using the hardware keys to enter safe mode)
Safe mode
Turn on and use safe mode
Safe mode allows you to turn on the device with third-party apps disabled. Then you can easily remove all apps that may be causing a conflict or software problem.
To turn on safe mode and use it to fix app problems, follow these steps:
Turn on safe mode
Turn the device off.
Press and hold the Power key.
When 'GALAXY Note 3' appears on the screen, release the Power key. Immediately after releasing the Power key, press and hold the Volume down key.
Continue to hold the Volume down key until the device finishes restarting.
'Safe mode' will display in the bottom left corner of the screen. Release the Volume down key when you see 'Safe Mode.'
Uninstall third party applications
Turn on Safe Mode.
From any Home screen, tap the Menu key.
Tap Settings.
Tap the General tab.
Tap Application manager.
If necessary, swipe right to the Downloaded screen.
Tap the desired application.
Tap Uninstall and then tap OK.
Turn off safe mode
To turn off safe mode, follow these steps:
Press and hold the Power key.
Tap Restart.
The same steps are located on the following URL for entering Safe Mode:
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-9049
Part 2 of 2 :
If you were successful in engaging Safe Mode, it is more than likely you will see an option screen come up that lists "TouchWiz" , KNOX (Possibly, and varies depending on your config and KNOW Counter Status {i.e. "0x0" or "0x1}, and TouchWiz Simple.
Please pick TouchWiz and DO NOT pick TouchWiz Simple.
Your Note 3 should then start without incident; however we would recommend you backup your data and reload your device with fresh installs as soon as possible.
Hope this helps.
The Tablet wont even boot up into Safe Mode. the Tablet doesnt boot at all. It just stays stuck at Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 screen.
I can use the hard keys to enter into Odin Mode and Team Win Recovery thats it.
Thanks for clarifying. Different steps will be required then. Be careful, and read the other two links carefully that are listed in order of importance to get your Note 3 back up and running:
[Step 1]
Hardware reset using Hardware Buttons ( You WILL LOSE ALL OF YOUR DATA {CAPS for emphasis only} )
Master reset with hardware keys
A master reset restores the original factory settings and may delete your personal data on the internal storage, such as downloaded content, ringtones, images, apps, and contacts. It does not delete data stored on the SIM card or SD card.
If the device menus are frozen or unresponsive, you can master reset using hardware keys. To perform a master reset, follow these steps:
Back up all data on the internal memory.
Turn off the device.
Press and hold the following three buttons at the same time:
Volume Up key
Home key
Power key.
When 'GALAXY Note 3' appears on the screen, release the Power key but continue to press and hold the Volume Up key and the Home key.
When the Android System Recovery screen appears, release the Volume Up and Home keys.
Press the Volume down key to highlight 'wipe data / factory reset.'
Press Power button to select.
Press the Volume down key to highlight 'delete all user data.'
Press Power button to select and start the master reset. When the master reset is complete, 'Reboot system now' is highlighted.
Press the Power key to turn the restart the device.
Directions also featured on the following URL: https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-9049
[Step 2]
Forget about ODIN and you can use Heimdall with the build of your choice provided it is supported by the BootLoader (i.e. KitKat BootLoader will not load JellyBean).
The instructions are in the following URL as are links to the appropriate software:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545009
IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH A USB3 Cable. Instead use a USB2 cable because USB3 connections via the Note 3 have been known to not be the most stable, and you will receive much more reliable connectivity using USB2 that is essential to the reload process.
Hope this all helps, and please let us know how successful you were.

Me tool, help!
if you modify system files you need update system from (update.img) the reset (factory/data) Does not change anything ,to go to recovery on the main screen (launcher) hold long press for power button about 9 second and press the button again
My Galaxy S7 Active just went to the dark side yesterday. (and is not even May 4th yet).
Found out phone itself is still kicking. I can call it it, but answering is very tricky.
Went on the start ADB to recover some of the data of it, images, messages, ....
but darnit, not my lucky day: USB developer option is not enabled.
Doing some more research I found this thread:
androidDOTstackexchangeDOTcomSLASHquestionsSLASH12834SLASHbroken-screen-while-debug-mode-was-disabled-how-can-i-re-enable-adb
This requires to get the Samsung S7 active into recovery mode, by using the 3-finger salute on the phone.
To enable recovery mode on the S7 you first need to power down the phone. Since you can't see the screen, the easiest is to force power down:
a) press VOL-down and power key for 7+ seconds and wait a while
b) then press VOL-up, home and power key all simultaneously. When you see a blueish line text flashing up, release all key
sit back and wait a while while the phone boots up in recovery mode.
Finally a menu will show up allowing you to select various different options, which can be selected with the VOL-up and -down keys.
I worked all this out with another older Samsung phone running , different model and older version of Android.
My 'broken' Galaxy S7 Active is running Android 8 (oreo?), maintained and updated by the AT&T automatic DFU process.
On all the Samsung phones I've looked so far the number of option and order in the recovery menu is slightly different.
Since the display is broken I can't see what is available. And I want to make sure I do not identically select the ' clean and wipe' option.
Could someone please post a pic of recovery option menu from an S7 running Android 8.
Not sure if it matters: could the Active model be different?
thanks in advance that would be really helpful.

Hello,
sorry to write here, I cant find the C21-Y section.
Direct question: is there a way to perform a factory reset not having the possibility to do it using the combination VOLD DOWN + POWER BUTTON and NOR using the standard Android UI?
Note, not activated debug mode
For more details see here below
I recently did a factory reset in "normal way", I mean using the standard Android user interface through normal menu.
Then, I changed only 3 things (without considering the minimum settings required at the first boot): show battery percentage, start black user interface menu and then after selecting the high contrast display... the display became black.
The display is responsive, because the phone vibrates if I touch in the position of the 3 buttons (back, multi, back).
Then, waking up the phone I can see the black smoothing on the display (hoping to make myself clear...) and I'm able - fortunately - to switch OFF the phone (basically touching the display in the right position and swiping to back, after holding a little the phisical on-off button).
Then, the display is working in the boot sequence (I can see the Android logo and the Realme animation): it stops once the Android system is loaded.
So, I tried booting the phone with the combination VOL DOWN + POWER BUTTON but it doesn't work... It seems an issue that afflict some pieces of this phone (read in some post, video I searched before writing here)
Well, how I can in this situation perform a factory reset?

You should be able to boot in to recovery mode where the device is powered off state and when you use key combinations to do
Keep holding the keys even if you see splash screen, untill recovery screen appears
You can also try holding volume key and connecting to computer via USB cable, without needing power button.
Unfortunately with this phone (or the Android version installed in the one I have) have some issues and... butroon combinations are not working
I think I've tried in every way, different combinations. No luck
Both (button combination and black screen) seems to be "common" (search on youtube black screen C21-Y) and the only way is to flash it and/or force the factory from PC (I don't have at the moment understood if for thios phone the only factory from PC is working)
Being a sw issue I'm trying to intercept Realme support, before trying any flash or something similar... but after the first answer to my mail they didn't come back again
I just call Realme support for a similar issue on C21-Y. They tell me this model doesn't have a recovery installed and olny way is to send back to factory and they will provide a factory reset.
What a bad product, no words.
Follow this, it worked in my case (without flashing the phone)
