Help! Tried backing up and stuck at 'backing up system...' Cannot restart via holding down power button for any length of time as the twrp unlock symbol comes up. Volume down and power button also won't work. Frozen now for 30 mins. Please don't tell me I have to wait till battery slowly runs out! Also tried the bright light trick and nothing. HELP! !

Just hold power button and volume-up button until the phone turns off after flashing with touch buttons.

Isn't it a case of simply holding the power button, without touching the volume button?

U have to push power button and volume up button at the same time to work. And think: If an app lags and u can't get the screen working? U can't put out the battery. This is the only exit if u don't have any PC and USB cable.

You can simply hold the power button. I've done it loads of times.
It doesn't work in lockscreen.

Just did it and works fine. Simply hold the power button.
Although the ROM you are on possibly does not have it.

I've tried it only on Sense ROMs, but it also works with AOKP/CM9 I think.

Today I went into recovery mode to fix permissions because my phone was running funny. I used the cache wipe script and when i tried rebooting my phone it wouldn't turn on. I decided to take the battery out for a few minutes to see if that would help. It finally turned on but it is stuck on the boot animation. I have tried to get straight into recovery after trying to reboot it but it won't let me. Could someone please help me figure out what's wrong and how I can fix it?
Have you tried holding down both vol down + up and power button same time then releasing power button when the phone vibrates?

I've tried that and nothing. I can turn it on now but it gets stuck on the boot animation. I cant get into recovery.
Edit: Finally got it into recovery now I'm going to flash a backup i made yesterday. Thanks for the reply.
Hold the vol up and down with power button at the same time. Let it vibrate once and take finger off power button and once Samsung logo comes on take your fingers off the volume rocker.

Your going to have to reflash your custom ROM from your recovery menu
He most likely used TDJ's scripts on the newer CWM versions and borked his recovery. I've done the same thing with my device...

It vibrates and flashes samsung in white, then stays black, doing nothing. Upon releasing the buttons it vibrates again and goes into boot up.

Hello XDA fellas,
Earlier, I was browsing in the S3 section, and someone has ported the S4 camera apk for S3, so without hesitation, I flashed it onto my phone.
Immediately when I reboot, my phone wouldn't go past the boot animation, so I thought... Okay, I will just flash my nandroid backup then.
But what I found out now is giving me a heart attack, my phone doesn't go into recovery, instead, it reboots if I hold down Power + Vol Up + Down for more than 4 secs... so fine... I went to Odins and reflashed CWM with a Stock Rom, but it's still not getting past the boot animation.
If anyone has any solution to this... I would appreciate it if you can share with me what you know.
Thanks.
You need to hold home, power, and volume up at the same time

Whenever the power key is held down for more than 4 seconds, the device reboots...
Hold all three... Power, volume up, and home and I think release when you see it say samsung

hold the vol up button and power for a few seconds until the flashing stops, then try and power it up

Vol Up and Power doesn't do anything...
try "Press and hold the POWER and VOLUME DOWN buttons for at least 12 seconds"
Send it to me and have your mom buy you another one.

Thank you so much, it's working now.. also, for anyone wondering, bootloader can't be unlocked since there's no OEM unlock option in dev options.. :/ waiting for someone more knowledgeable than me to unlock it
