S2 Stuck @ Samsung

I updated adaway and know the phone is stuck at the samsung boot logo. Tried going into recovery but phone wont go to recovery mode . Could be because of the sticky power button issues ?
What are my options here reinstall stock rom . I had slim beam installed with TWRP recovery. Tried these steps 2) Hold down home, power, and volume UP , phone vibrates and then its back to the samsung logo.

Hold volume up and down, press power button until it vibrates and let go of power button only. This is for T989. The procedure for T989D is different.

Using Odin and installing stock Rom manually
Hey, it sounds like you have the same problem i had. What i did to fix it is download the stock ROM for my phone and download Odin. The i reinstalled the rom ontu the phone and it worked fine. Just look uo how to do this for you type of phone included moded for example i had a tmobile samsung galaxy s2 t989.

Phone was fine for few days , restored it with odin now same issue. Phone shows samsung loho and nothing happens . Not sure whats causing this or its the not good build quality of of these phones..

You might have to factory reset in recovery (vol up + home + power). I read you removed the power button, that's so not useful lol.
Maybe you'll be able to use ADB to boot in recovery or a jig to boot in download mode (if it gets to that point).

no luck

Hold all 3 buttons until he boots up (vibrate), then release the power, while still holding home+vol up. It should boot in recovery.

Depending on your carrier, you may be able to flash a stock ROM via Odin.
If you have the 4.3 bootloader, only flash a stock 4.3 ROM. If you have a 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 bootloader, you can flash either a stock 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 ROM via Odin.

[Q] Rooted S4 stuck on booting screen.

Hi everyone. I've been meaning to sell my old S4 for awhile now and I haven't been keeping up with the root scene, so clearly I might have screwed something up. I was originally running my S4 rooted with Hyperdrive S15 (Android 4.3) with TWRP + Safestrap 3.71. I deleted the hyperdrive slot and booted into the stock ROM. After that, I used TWRP to wipe everything (dalvik cache/cache/data/factory reset) then after rebooting the phone, it just stays loads up the "Samsung" Screen with the custom symbol under it. I've tried looking at guides online to try to unbrick/fix this phone, but still have no idea what to do. I've tried booting it into download mode, but for some reason, it only goes into recovery mode (I do Vol Up + Home + Power, then as soon as it vibrates, I don't press the power button anymore). I was trying to use Odin but I can't get it to go into download mode, so when I plug it in, Odin doesn't see it. Can anyone give me some ideas/info on how to fix this?
EDIT: And I posted in the wrong section.....sorry guys. Can a mod move/close this one?

Have you tried posting this in the S4 forum. This is the Verizon Note 4 forum, not the S4 forum. You'll probably get more responses over there. Good luck.

Yes, i posted this over there after realizing I put this in the wrong area (haha). Sorry.

Yet another bricked tablet

I rooted my tab-s 10.5 the other day, I used Odin 3.10.6. I then used flashify to add TWRP, again no problems. From there I really don't remembered what I did to it, but now it is stuck at the white logo that comes after the colored one and now it will not turn off I can get into the Odin menu but that is all. I have let it discharged all night then charged it then I turned it on, it then got to the logo and stopped & will not shut off . I am tempted to send it to Samsung(even though I voided the warranty) and let them fix it. I am at my wits end on this.

White logo? Samsung logo or Galaxy Tab S logo?
I assume Samsung logo. Anyway you can force reboot by holding power+home button + BOTH Volume up and Down buttons all at the same time until the screen goes black. Then quickly press the recovery button combo and restore your backup.
Now if your at the Galaxy Tab S logo, hold power+home button+ both volume buttons until the screen goes black, then press and hold Power+Home+ Volume down buttons then that should get you into download mode. From there flash your firmware.

The download mode is what I thought was called Odin mode which I can get to. The thing is I do not have a firmware. I looked at several sites for one but I did not know which one to down load. They were for other countries but the US..

Do you own the SM-T800 (WiFi 10.5 Tab s) or Lte 10.5 Tab S?

It is the SM-T800 the wifi one.

Well after a few tries, I got into recovery mode, restored from backup, now it is stuck at the Tab S screen

Heres the T800 lollipop firmware https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347760201
I mirrored it so the download should be fast. It's U.S region

So I should use Odin to load the firmware, right.

Thank you DUHAsianSKILLZ very much, it worked. I about panicked there for a moment when it took awhile to boot. It looks like all of my apps are still there, I only had to reset my wallpaper. Thanks again.

IF I decide to reroot my tab-s(and it's a big if) what file do you recommend and what recovery file.

I usually don't recommend flashing twrp with flashify as it causes some problems but most times don't. I use this tutorial (by me lol) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=59638836 and had no problems so far installing twrp + rooting.
The problem you could of had that gave you the bootloop is that you might of hit something I don't know. I tend to only use the recovery to flash roms and hardly ever for backups (takes to much space). I just keep a custom ROM on my sd card since most of my things are backed up into the cloud.

Or you could use this, root and twrp in one:
