[Q] I can't get into recovery mode. - Samsung Galaxy W I8150

Hi all,
UPDATE: issue solved, see below details.
Sorry that I'm posting my question here and not in the CWM thread, I tried but the XDA won't allow me to add a reply in the tread (see picture).
I can't get into recovery mode.
I flashed recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.5-ancora.tar.md5 using Odin 4.44, the flash passed.
When the phone is off, I press power+vol up+hone - I get a loop with Samsung logo, it shows for a second, disappears for 3-4 seconds and appears again.
Once I release the buttons, the phone will boot to the ROM (2.3.6).
I believe the CWM is installed. When I do factory reset via the phone menu (menu-->Privacy-->Factory data reset) the phones shows the recovery. See pictures.
How can I access the recovery?
I want to try the CM9 ROM.
Thanks!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
UPDATE:
Never mind, I have solved my issue (it took quite a time).
1. Turn off the device.
2. Press Power+vol up+home
3. Once Samsung logo shows on the screen - release ONLY the power button (continue pressing vol up + home).
4. U R done.

[Q] Stuck in bootloop, cant access recovery mode.

Samsung Galaxy S3, SGH-I747M, Rogers
I used Odin to root my phone with root66_RWC_I747MVLDLK4.tar.md5 (followed instructions properly) about 8 times so far, wont boot past Samsung logo. Odin says the load was successful each time.
I read somewhere to try using Odin to load CF-SGS3-v5.5.v1.0.tar and booting into recovery mode, but it wont work either.
I have no idea what else to do, cant get to recovery mode, cant get past Samsung logo. (Living in Canada on Rogers)
Followup Edit: After loading the root66 through Odin again, I noticed I was booting to recovery incorrectly. Thank you xBeerdroiDx. "After you successfully flash, unplug your device and pulled he battery. Replace it and immediately press Vol up + home + power. When your device vibrates, release only the power button."
Did you flash a custom recovery?
You managed to root the phone. But you still have to flash a custom recovery to get it to boot up into recovery.
There is both CWM and TWRP files to flash thru Odin

Flash the dlk4 again. Untick auto reboot in ODIN. After you successfully flash, unplug your device and pulled he battery. Replace it and immediately press Vol up + home + power. When your device vibrates, release only the power button. Of that gets you into recovery mode, wipe data and cache. Reboot

DAMN I was doing the buttons wrong. Just mashed them all together and held until something happened, which took me to the normal boot. Thank you!

[Q] I have nandroid backup, but I can't access to it :/

Hi, I had a ROM and I wanted to change to another one that I had backed up so I deleted everything, went to the ROM, stayed there for an hour and then I pressed the power menu, clicked in reboot in recovery mode so I could go back to my other ROM and now... it doesn't stop rebooting into recovery. I tried taking the battery out and when it turns on, it's like if I'm holding the bottoms to go to recovery and once it passes the logo of the recovery, it restarts and does the same operation... I have TWRP recovery.
Any help is appreciated

Htc desire 526g stuck in boot loop

Hi guys, months ago i rooted my HTC 526G with Kingoroot. I later tried to update the software over wifi. It updated but in restarting its now stuck in boot screen and sometimes goes into recovery by itself. Is there a way I can revive the firmware? Any help appreciated
HTC Desire 526G
I have problem like this ....cant fix it
Warning/Disclaimer: This will erase everything you have on the phones internal memory. (if you have play store set up right, you can just log back in afterwards and it will pull all your data/apps back, however if you don't, make sure to backup any contacts, data, ect that may be on the phones storage before attempting this) (then again, if you were already trying to root, you should have had everything backed up already anyway )
Charge the device to at least 50% (or an hour or two at least if the battery was completely dead)
Hold the Volume Down Button, Press power button, keep holding the volume down button
Phone should boot into HBOOT or Download mode,
use the volume up and down buttons to highlight Recovery Mode
press power button to select Recovery Mode
Phone will reboot with a red triangle icon, press all three buttons at the SAME time (vol up, vol down, power)
use the volume up and down buttons to highlight Clear Data (Factory Reset) press power button to select, let it finish clearing /data/ and /cache/
Once this has completed, Pull the battery out, let it sit for like 30 seconds without the battery
Put battery back in
hold power button for a while until it vibrates, release power button
let it sit at the htc boot screen for 10 minutes phone should eventually move to the verizon boot screen (if it goes over 10 minutes on the htc screen, try procedure again)
Post here if you have any trouble.
Still have problems

i've done the procedure but unluckly i'm still having this problem, did someone fix the loop with this method? should i just wait for custom roms? :crying:
I had it happen to me after trying to root with just about every tool out there, mine would boot up but wouldn't go past the htc boot screen white background green htc. After I cleared the data a few times (at least 3) it came back up, try the procedure more than once. Also be patient and wait the full 10 minutes for it to come back up, sometimes it can be slow to load for the first time after this kind of wipe.

Try to root with "PhilZ Recovery by Ajit", search on google, i don't remember where i have download it, but it is an .exe file.
After you install it on your computer, you select USB debugging, and connect your phone to the computer, the rest of the process is auto.
After the installation process, the phone will autoreboot in recovery, here you will select ---> Advanced Function---> RE-root System (SuperSU).
After that, reboot, and install SuperSU from GooglePlay.
Success.
Root without boot loop (you may want to wipe Dalvid Cache before reboot after selecting root).
I hope this works for you ( it worked for me HTC desire 526g ).
Have a nice day.
IF you dont find the Philz, contact me, i wil send it to you.
Philz Recovery by ajit is designed for devices using the Mediatek processor; Sadly our 526 (no g, no +) uses a qualcomm processor. I do not recommend anyone to attempt to use "Philz recovery by Ajit" to attempt to root their HTC 526 as at best it will fail and at worse it will flash a non-compatible recovery and turn your device into a hard-brick.

My phone was also rooted using kingroot. I received an OTA update and I downloaded it. Once the download was complete, the phone restarted and got bootlooped. Occasionally, it goes into recovery. I tried factory resetting it several times as mentioned in the solution. But each time I turn the phone ON again after factory reset, it is looping. Its not stuck at the boot logo. Instead it reboots automatically and in some cases to recovery. So the wait-for-10-mins thing is not working for me.
1. I received a stock ROM from the Russian section of XDA. Will flashing that ROM using the stock recovery using "install update from SD card" help me recover my phone from bootloop?
2. Will flashing the stock ROM unroot the phone? Presently, even after the factory resetting, "check the software partition" option in recovery returns a message "error - system has root". So I was hoping that unroofing might fix the problem. Will it?
3. If the above method fails, is there any other method? Like flashing a custom recovery or flashing a custom ROM etc?
Please help me fix the phone. Thanks in advance.
I am experiencing the same problem and have tried everything to avail, will this devise ever work again its still stuck with a white screen and green HTC

Hey negomo. I just fixed the phone yesterday. It seems that installing an OTA update while the phone is rooted can result in a bootloop or bricking(as in my case). I fixed this issue by flashing a stock ROM of the HTC 526g which I got from another Russian forum in XDA. Anyway I am posting the link of that stock ROM here.
( I am not allowed to post link. So please delete the spaces to get the actual link)

Once you download it do the following procedure
1. Copy it to an SD card and insert the card in your phone.
2. Press power button+volume up key button to enter HBOOT menu (while turning on the phone, press power and vol up button instead of power button alone)
3. Choose recovery option and press volume down to enter
4. Press power button once to enter recovery
5. Choose "install update from SD card"
6. Wait till it finishes installation
7. Wipe cache
8. Reboot phone
PS: I had already done a factory reset from recovery menu. I don't know if that had helped.
This will bring your phone back to life. Give around 10 mins for the first boot.
I hope I was able to help you.
Hit thanks if I did.
how to know my device 526g or 526

thx you are pro ??my problem solved ??

Flashed TWRP but can't enter with button shortcut, only from fastboot.

Unlocked phone's bootloader and flashed the latest TWRP, downloaded straight from their site and md5 checked.
If I try to enter TWRP from fastboot, it enters fines but the shortcut just doesn't. If you can't enter twrp from the shortcut, then your basically screwed if you brick it..
I even tried flashing twrp all over again, and still have the sample problem.
So how can I fix this?
i have the same problem, plus the fact that i had error during flashing new rom and now i can't even go back to stock, cause my PC doesn't recognize phone in download mode. Any fixes?
bumb
If u have root u can use an app called Flashify download from playstore go to recovery by using this app n The regular way to go Volume up and power button delete all select yes confirm yes u go into TWRP
Use Flashify or while you're in recovery flash again the recovery use the "Flash Image" option. And now you'll have permanent recovery
i found a solution, when your phone is off press volume down + power until lg logo appears, then release power (keep holding wolume down) and press power again. Then double yes and boom TWRP

Thanks mate. This made the factory reset menu open, and after clicking yes twice it did a normal factory reset like there was no twrp there.. I flashed twrp a couple of times with no error messages, and even got into it a month ago. How did it disappear.. what the hell

Just upgraded to latest Magisk from the App, now stuck at boot screen HELP!

Just opened the Magisk Manager app, updated from within the app using the Reccommended method, device reboots, now stuck on the 'Samsung Galaxy Note10+ 5G' screen.
I cant even get it into TWRP which is a pain.

Reboot to EDL/BROM (search for right key combination) and reflash ROM using SP Flash Tool. Then flash latest Magisk
I have let the phone run down battery, pressed vol up and power, but still nothing.

I have already tried key combinations, but still the same.
@hainguyenthao helped me out. Showed me how to get into downlaod mode without pressing power and vol down!
Let the phone power down, leave it for 30 mins or so. then press vol up and vol down and insert USB cable.
OR if phone is in bootloop, press vol down and power till phone reboots, then VERY quickly hold down vol up and vol down and plug in USB cable
Dude, To put device in download mode - Press Volume Up & then Press Volume Down (Keep holding both) and connect device to PC with USB cable.
But for your problem you have to put your device in recovery mode then flash ROM. Still the problem continues, you can try this download link
I've the same problem with my Note 10+... Was on Dr. Ketan Rom and update with magisk app ends in a boot loop, I couldn't break -.-
@vinokirk could you solve the problem?
Edit: Thanks to @starpandi2004 - on the first try I can break the bootloop, but just to the first screen. After choosing download mode, it comes bootloop again -.-
Is it worth to try to lock bootloader and factory reset phone? What will happen? Is the original rom somewhere packed and would be installed again by factory reset?

Bro what about TWRP recovery? can you able access it...
if yes then dirty flash KETAN ROM..it will solve...
just had same same problem.
i connected mine to the pc and use power+up volume until twrp appeear and them restores from last backup
I got the simplest solution for this issue!
If u r stuck on Samsung logo, then try this method.
Turn off the phone by pressing vol down and power button. Once the phone is shut down, release and press again the vol down and power button when u see Samsung note 10 plus screen, then release the power button but keep pressing vol down. Once u see the "Samsung" logo, immediately release the vol down button and quickly press vol up button.
This will boot up without any problem!
