[Q] Bootloop, no recovery... - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently installed Cyanogenmod on my friends International (GT-19195) GS4 Mini. He said it was glitchy and ****, and he couldn't sign into his Google account. I then turned the phone off, went straight into recovery and installed a stock firmware. Being as dumb as I am, I didn't erase any data or anything whatsoever, I just installed the stock firmware. Now it hangs on the Samsung logo, and I can't get into recovery, pressing the buttons just doesn't work. I can however get into download mode. Help!

Use programme called adb ..
But first take bat out for a sec or 2

That isn't very specific, what should I do with ABD? I know what it is, but not what to do with it.

Can somebody please try and help?

[Q] [HELP] Tried to isntall chainfire3d, now stuck on boot screen.

Hey, i rooted galaxy note 2 today, tried to install chainfire 3d, it warned me that the device might fail to boot after it, and well.. it did fail
Now iam stuck on the boot screen saying - Samsung galaxy noet 2 GT-7100. Not sure what should i do now to fix it..
Iam able to press volume down, home and power buttons and get to the install screen
As well iam able to press volume up, home and power buttons to get to the Android system recovery screen.
Soo what now ?
edit1: I tried to use the " Wipe data/factory reset " thing in system recovery, didnt help.
Now iam downloading Stock ROM for n7100, hoping i could use it with odin and unroot the device, not sure if that will help...
If you can get into recovery, just download a rom you want, custom or stock doesn't matter, and wipe data and cache, then flash the rom. Should boot up just fine after that.

Thanks, ive successfully flashed the rom, booted up, and everything seems to be working fine now..
But i wonder, i just had bad luck on chainfire3d, or i did something wrong, maybe device cant really use the app ?
Personal I wouldn't use chainfire3d on the note II. There are no real benefits any more I think.

Chainfire 3D hasn't been able to work on JellyBean for quite some time. If you have a nandroid backup, use that. Otherwise you'll have to re flash. I ran into the exact same problem on my Galaxy S2...

I did exactly the same thing here, except when I turn on the phone holding Vol down, home and power it gets stuck on the Downloading ... Do not turn off the target screen. Anyone got any advice here?
You don't read before installing. .do you. ?..chain fire 3d doesn't work with jelly bean
Lot of guys did this and ended up in boot loop. .. the only way is to flash a rom again. ...

I had this installed on my SGS2 and just did the non wipe upgrade to JB XWLS8, went to reapply drivers and stuck at Samsung logo like everyone else with JB..
Solution was simple, booted to (stock as I rooted using signed su zip and not odin for once) recovery, then with usb plugged into pc, adb shell, su, /system/lib/cf3d_uninstall.sh and phone was back up and running in a minute.

(I have 2 phones btw, about to give cf3d a shot on the note 2, good thing I didn't bother).
same here,i read in the web that the problem is caused by superuser ,it says that you must install an older version of superuser
Don't believe everything you read in the web..

Just download your stock rom and install with odin this will help you install it trought the pda this wont remove your apps that you have.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note II using TapaTalk 2.
Or, as I said above, from adb, which is still running despite the phone looking like it has locked up, you can uninstall the system drivers causing the issue, saves screwing up something doing a flash.

Boot to recovery. Plug in USB cable to PC. Ensure phone drivers installed on PC. Install ADB on PC which comes from SDK, or even easier, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1474956
Make sure adb is in PC path.
Open command prompt, type adb shell, which will open a shell session on the phone (works to most recoveries, and works to running phone if debugging enabled).
then if not # prompt (root) type su
then the cf3d_uninstall.sh is typically installed into /system/lib... although one or two posts have said it isn't here on their phones so you will have to dig around a bit. You may need to mount /system depending on recovery used. Google to see how, I can't explain everything easily.

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

[q] Warning for any rooted Tab 7!!!!!

Today I finally rooted my Tablet 7 with some help from gr8nole here on XDA. Needless to say I was very happy and started downloading any and all apps that required root I was interested in. Unfortunately about an hour into my adventure I downloaded an app called LCD Density. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP. It soft bricked my device after changing the density from 240 to 160. I am now just trying to get back to square one again and have no idea what to do. I wiped the cache partition and re flashed root. Reboot same thing again. The Samsung screen is vertical not horizontal and doing the infamous glow from blue to white and back to blue and nothing more continuously. I am in CWM now and not really sure what step to take next as I don't want to risk a hard brick. I went to Rom Manager in CWM and no files were there when I went to use the backup feature What should I do?

Thank you..Quick question. How do you get into Recovery with TWRP? I flashed it with Odin with the auto restart and with out. I used the CWM Recovery vol up power and home keys but it does not do anything. I am rooted already as well. Could that be the issue? Im using the TAR file too. I really would like to use the touch screen option instead of pushing buttons like a dinosaur

When you flash twrp or cwm in odin, you must uncheck autoreboot. Btw hold down power vol up and home button, when samsung logo appears, release the power button while still pessing down vol up and home

Why didnt you just change the density back? Open build.prop, or push a stock version of it via adb or (idk if it is possible) via fastboot.
Then yoir problem should be solved. Those tweaks have got nothing to do with cache, or data, or so
Thats also why you need root and also the reason, why it is not so easy, to root some devices
But try brain.exe and everything should work, as it should

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

F'N recovery

I've got the p600 wifi model. I'm trying to install recovery and it's making me curse. I've rooted tons of devices and never had this problem. Can anyone please assist? I installed per the goo manager method and it says it installed correctly, even rom manager shows I have it, but when I boot into recovery it's not showing up. Thank you for any help

Flash through odin, v2.6.3.3, untick auto reboot before flashing, reboot manually, & then get into recovery volume up + power.
You will get a permanent TWRP.
