I tried to install a new rom but something happened during installation and now all i can see in my screen is black and "serial".It doesn't even let me do a hard reset.Can anyone help me plz?
go bootloader & flash.
Thanks but.....
What do you mean?Can you plz explain me how to do it? Thanks for the Help
you dont mention what device you got but
typicaly when stuck in bootloader you need to connect it to the pc
with usb and it should be ready to get a new rom flashed into it
you can get more info and maybe a link to a rom for your device
if you click on the XDA-wiki and find your device and read it's wiki
your short info, my short answer.
Hello guys im very new to Android and i want to ask something.
Maybe its a noob question but what i did it.
I S Off my Wildfire S and i Permanently ROOT it this is all i done till now.
I never put some recovery things etc.
So today i saw something that i want to install on my device but i need to put 1st my device in recovery mode and install it then.
So when i went to recovery mode 1st for few seconds its show me a black screen with device and green arrows like all is normal and after a second showing me BIG RED TRIANGLE like something is wrong so what i think is
I dont have a recovery?!
I mean do i need to put it by myself?! this is why im not able to boot in recovery?
And if im right can someone provide me i mean show me where to look for this TUT what recovery to flash and how im sure there already have a quide and etc.
If someone can point me out i want to understand more about this devices what this recovery doing exactly i guess its recover something and maybe i can do backup etc.
Thank you in advance
I have the same issue. I used the instructions and SW at htcdev to unlock the bootloader, which worked fine. Went to try recovery and had the same issue as above. Had to take out the battery to get the phone back.
Ideas?

I really think WE DO NOT HAVE RECOVERY installed lol
I dont know do this is posible but its seems like its posible so we must to wait someone more familiar to tell us
I think that we need to FLASH RECOVERY
it is useless stock recovery you can flash cwm recovery with this tool
Also, please post general questions, in the general section.

Alright, I just recently bought a new Galaxy S3, through Rogers in Canada.
I was successfully rooted and flashed w/ a custom rom.
I then downloaded "VZW GS3 EZ-Unlock (Bootloader)", so I could escape Error Status 7 in CWM while trying to flash a new rom...
Boom, phone doesn't turn on. I guess it wasn't compatible w/ my i747.
If I connect to the PC, the sound when a device is connected plays. If I try and boot to download (3key combination), the sound just repeats (off/on). But the device doesn't turn on. Screen stays blank.
So, I just finished making a 300K ohm usb jig.
This doesn't make the phone turn on either.
So, how do I flash a bootloader in SDMode ?? I read it involves jumping a resistor -- I'm assuming this is the next step I have to take to try and revive my phone. What's the file I need on my sdcard? Who can point me in the right direction?

Edit:
Bump::
URGENT!
Can someone PLEASE use QPST and in the Software Downloader program, make a backup from a stockish i747 Rom, upload it, and link me!?
I'm sure I've figured out a way to restore my device!! This will help the whole community since several ppl are having my identical issue.
It looks like you brick your own phone...you should return to the store where you got it from and get replace one. Also, you shouldn't put bootloader b/c it is 100% chance to brick it. 2nd thing is that you need very new version of CWM (v6) which it is found in the thread b/c it happen to me when I have very old one and got same status.
The USB jig should be 301k I do believe. Bootloader mishaps usually need JTAG repair to get functional. mobiletechvideos I think is the name I keep seeing around here. Good luck.

Boot_loader.hex
I'm also looking for a hex file of the default boot loader for i747... if anyone knows, that's greatly appreciated
I don't know if you can do it that way - probably not.
In all likelihood you've bricked your phone and it requires a physical modification to work. Software won't do it.
Instead of flashing some strange boot loader you should have just updated your recovery - a quick search and a little reading would have told you that was the cause of the status 7 error.

Hey everyone, first time posting, but followed this forum for a while now.
Ok, so I had been running CM10 on my ICS S3 for a while, but wanted to start fresh and upgrade to JB, and see how I liked it. I followed this link:
androidrootz.c o m/2012/10/how-to-unroot-samsung-galaxy-s3-no.html
to flash my stock ROM back to the phone. (Hope linking is permitted, if not I apologize). I am on Mac and therefore used Mobile Odin Pro to help me achieve a fresh S3. I started at step 4, bc I didn't care to reset my flash counter. Everything was going smoothly until I hit step 15. It's here that the phone will flash the Samsung boot screen momentarily, then show the "blue droid" running script for less than a second, and repeat over and over again.
I've attempted to put it in recovery/download(is there a difference between the two) mode, but the phone repeatedly does what was just described. What options do I have to get this phone back in working order?
Please help me, King Newb, if there is actually any help that can be given. I really don't like using my old iPhone as my primary again. I just want my S3 back, preferably running JB and rooted. Please and thanks guys.
Out.

Actually, you can't post links cause you're a new user.
Here's what you should follow: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1822308
To get in download mode: Hold Vol down+Home + Power button
To get in recovery mode: Hold Vol up+Home + Power button
Instead of getting CWM, I would suggest getting TWRP, which can be done by downloading goomanager from the play store. (After you're done flashing stock rooted JB from the link above).
I am on Mac, is there an alternative to Odin, or a version that runs on OS X?
Thank you for putting me on the right track

Mobile Odin or Heimdall.
OK, I need a little more clarification. My phone doesn't boot, so are you saying that I can use Mobile Odin right on my Mac, and is it possible to link me to a proper copy of Heimdall? Also, is there perhaps a step by step instruction set for getting me back to a functioning phone? I clicked your link and found a ton of information, but still unsure which set of steps I need to follow.
Thanks again for your patience.

Oh my bad, I replied fast (covering a lot of threads right now). Mobile Odin won't work.. And I haven't seen Heimdall around here. Sorry.
The easiest way would be to use a PC. I'll keep looking for what can be done on Macs (you should do the same )
I followed the steps to the link (used virtual machine) but when I get to the step where you press start, Odin just says "all threads completed. (succeeded 0/failed 0). So I think I'm getting close but not quite there yet.
Would it have something to do with the boot loader option? Just curious because of the boot loop I've been stuck in. Btw, I can't get my phone into recovery mode, however download mode still works fine, if that matters.
Another quick update. I've now been able to get into the phone by holding both volume buttons and the power button. Phone boots normally with cm boot logo. However the phone is completely wiped except for stock apps it comes with. This gives me a little more hope but still not sure where to go from here.
Bump. Can't anyone point me in the right direction? My situation is quite unique, as I have found another person explain it happening to them during my search. Want to get this fixed ASAP.
Thanks!

Download this if you are us using AT&T and if not use the drop down menu on the top left and pick your device and download the latest jellybean update:
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SGH-I747
Flash this download via mobile Odin. Read mobile Odin's directions carefully. You can so keep root of you wanted to through this app. This download will bring you back yo complete stock and will work for you.

I'm having the exact same problem. Is there a solution I need one so bad
I have the same problem as the OP.
I CAN NOT get it into recovery mode.
I CAN get it into download mode.
Is my only option to use ODIN on a windows PC? Does anyone have any clue of what software to download and from where?
Oli
Yeah, I would try that. I'm not to familiar with mobile Odin. I do know that after running certain roms, if you Odin to stock you need to do a factory reset from recovery after the Odin flash.
You're not going to be able to flash stock via odin if you can't get into download mode.
What OS did you come from? What did you do just before this all happened?
Try recovery mode again (vol up + home + power). Release only the power button when the phone vibrates and you see the blue script in the top left corner. Report back
He can get dl mode, not recovery

I stand corrected. I should wake up more before I hop on the boards. Cheers
Maybe you don't have cwm installed anymore since you wiped your phone. Try downloading rom manager and flashing cwm recovery then see if you can get into recovery mode.

Phone won't boot, can't use Rom manager to flash cwm. I stand by what I said. Flash to rooted stock, use goo manager (or Rom manager) to install custom recovery. Dl and flash Rom.
Mobile Odin works much like the desktop version. The Odin package usually has a recovery so CWM or TWRP will be replaced by stock recovery. Although mobile Odin does have the ability to exclude recovery from the flash. So you will have to get back into down load mode use the desktop version of Odin to stock then flash cfroot with Odin. Now you should be able to get into recovery as cfroot has CWM

Hey guys me again, I have been trying since 2 hours to unbrick my 2 days old Galaxy tab s 10.5, After successfully rooting my new tablet I decided to make a back up of my stock system, I used TWRP recovery to do so, after booting successfully on TWRP, I wanted to make sure I will have a clean image, I manually erased every possible thing on my table by selecting every option on TWRP, once done and on my way to reboot, before quitting TWRP warn me that there wasnt any system, and even with this warning I quit. Result I bricked my tablet hopefully "soft", to get even better I remembered that I didnt had a micro sd card on my tablet and by consequence I must have erase TWRP and every possible restore solution, the table get stuck with the Boot logo and thats it... I can get at least into download mode,. I tried Kies 3 but Im getting an error that my device is not recognized and for Odin I do think is connected but I dont know how to use or what to install or what to do. And I don't get it why my program seems so buggy and I can´t select any of those options.
at least I could root my phone easily.
ps: I did try every possible combination to get into recovery mode and is just impossible there is no way.
if anybody rescue me I seriously cant thank you enough I googled around and did search a lot on the XDA forums, I'm now more scared to tweak around and make things worst , and maybe if not to late permanently dammage it.

Hey maxal, thx for replying, my English is really not the best, if you think its not understandable I will re edit and try again.
You will need to find and download your firmware from Sammobile http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-T800/BTU/
and use odin to reflash your stock firmware.
Read this too. http://theunlockr.com/2014/08/09/how-to-unroot-the-samsung-galaxy-tab-s-10-5-wifi/
TURNING THE DARNED THING OFF:
Here's the problem. If you are at the Samsung splash screen or boot looping Recovery, you cannot turn your tablet off by just pressing the power button and you can't pull the battery. This prevents you from getting back into Recovery or download mode to restore your nandroid backup or use Odin
So here is what you do:
1) Plug your tablet into your computer (this is important!).
2) Hold down the home, volume down and power buttons until you boot into download mode. Once you are prompted, push the volume up button to enter download mode completely.
3) Now, once in download mode, hold down the power and volume down buttons (not the home button this time) until you screen goes blank (your tablet MUST be plugged into your computer for this to work!). Release the buttons and you will see the battery symbol on your screen. Your tablet is now off - thank god.
4) To enter Recovery mode, hold the home, volume up and power buttons down until Recovery loads.
5) Restore your nandroid backup if you have one.

Thank you so much Maxal I will do it so, indeed the text was terribly written I tried to make it better and more understandable, I read that actually Kies was the way to go for flashing back a bricked device, and odin was actually a risky thing, is that right ?

I believe kIes is for stock unrooted devices and Odin is for rooted devices, I may be wrong. I did get my self in a mess and I was stuck on the Samsung logo and with the help of the forum and what I have told you I managed to get my Tab S to turn off, I then boot in to download mode and used Odin to flash stock firmware again
all right almost done downloading the firmware, could you give me the tutorial you followed for bringing your tablet back to life ? or any good tutorial, Helping me to get out

I don't know which firmware you should have as I don't know where you are from, but I don't think it should make much difference, the firmware I gave the link for is the UK one.
Maybe someone else can help with a link for the correct firmware for you.

Hi maxal,
Download via KIES will not check root If you do not connect the tablet to a PC. It only checks the serial number and model type of your Tab for search new updates firmware with determine the correct CSC Region code. You can even download the correct firmware by KIES to your PC without having to connect the tablet and then save the file firmware (this requires some tricks) and flash it via Odin. To do this, you need only enter the serial number and model type of the device in KIES menu Tools -> Firmware Upgrade and Initialisation. More details have here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58527780&postcount=5
In this case you no need connect the tablet to PC. It also confirms ashyx here:
