[Q] Power Reset or Unknown Upload Mode

i have been encountering this error whenever i go to recovery mode. is this a problem with my phone or with the deodexed rooted rom, with cwm, or with the custom rom i installed?

This is samsung bootloader bug
While rebooting to recovery,Just release power button once screen light appears
Then you will booted into recovery.

This error has reported in many forums but no ultimate solution yet:
Checkout some tips this might help
Turn off you phone and take your battery out
Now your mobile phone is off
Turn it on again by pressing power and volume button (up or down doesn’t matter) but same time.
After Logo “Android out of box will appear”
Press Menu button and wait a recovering button should appear
Recover your phone it might help?
Best of luck:good:

I think i have made this clear at other thread
Though writing here for someone else need

Thank You, I found it and already fixed it.

same problem
just for the sake of enforcement, i have the same problem. although i don't know if it was there from the start, but i noticed it after flashing rooted stock via ODIN.
then, i flashed CWM, and it was still there. I flashed a stock rom and checked if i can get into stock recovery, no luck!
then i flashed CWM from another source, and it was still there.
so i flashed CF-root to go back to stock recovery, and it is still there.
finally, i flashed CWM, and rebooted into recovery via ROM Manager, and flashed a custom ROM which includes a custom recovery, and it is still there!!!
So, i wake up every morning, and it is still there.....

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
thanks

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

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.

If you have used ODIN before to flash anything using this computer you are trying with now, you don't need to reinstall the drivers.

Ok. Thank you very much . There is one problem. I think you guys didnt understand that the computer finds the phone but Odin doesnt i think i must install the drivers for odin to find it. Can someone tell me if ican install the drivers while i am in download mode and how am i supposed to do it ? maybe theres a tutorial somewhere. I am really sorry for not being good with this. But its because i bought the phone already rooted. I know i already took lots of your time but i know how to do everything accept odin doesnt find my phone and thats the biggest problem.

Tab 3 7" T210R is slow and won't root!!! HELP?

Gentlemen,
This tab is slow....keyboard is very laggy. So I figured I'd root it and load a ROM to it.... I flashed the file listed in the thread,
however, power, home and up won't go.... upon ocsassion, it wil bring me into factory mode..... wierd. My s3 and 4 rooted just fine,
so I'm no stranger to that......
Suggestion? Is there something I'm missing?
Other suggested in antother thread to reload factory firmware from sammobile...... I don't believe it would solve anything......
Thanks guys

You should try to flash the original firmware and see if it would fix it. Before doing it backup your data in case it doesn't fix

I used this link - Worked just like the video showed except I found that after flashing the TWRP recovery tool, I had to hold volume up & home for an extended period before the tool would boot. Watch the screen. After the Samsung logo dissapears, there is a slight glow on the screen. When that glow disappears, release the keys and you should see a lock screen. Swipe and you're in. Good luck.

Okk.
1. Download Superuser zip from following link and copy the zip to internal memory..
http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU/
2. Download Philz recovery build 3 from following link
https://s.basketbuild.com/devs/rutvikrvr/hl3g/cwm
3. Download odin.
4. Switch off the phone and remove back cover as you will have to pull down battery in next step.
5. Put you phone in download (odin) mode.
6. Flash Philz recovery you just downloaded via odin, after it say Reset in odin and you phone vibrates, quickly pull down the battery.. Do not let the phone switch on.
7. Now go to recovery mode..
8. Flash SuperSu zip which you downloaded and copied in your phone's internal from there.
Rooted..

Wow! Worked seemless!! Rooted!! Thanks a ton!
Could you also let me know how can I remove Samsung bloatware??

Nice to know you are rooted..
Download Attached app Root Uninstall to remove system app (So called Blotwares)..
On the Top you will see System App/User App, tap it to switch between System or User Apps.. Then just tap on the apps you want to remove and press Uninstall on the bottom of the app..
There is also an option to backup the apps.
Don't Say, just PRESS Thanks <===============

Thanks yet again!
After Rooting. Android System seems to be eating toouch battery. Almost equal to Screen. See screenshot attached.
