Hi everyone,
this is my first post here!
So today i took my brother's GS3 and saw he was on 4.0.1 and tried to upgrade to 4.3 via Odin
The first problem was that his volume down button is broken, so i have to use adb to put in download mode, I did it and successfuly updated but it showed emergency calls only, and after some search's I've found that was a problem with Modem file. As it must be rooted, i've rooted it but at the time i tried to install the modem through recovery again a problem because of the volume down button that wasn't working, so here starts the worst part> than i did the big mistake after downloading cydgenmod with touch for gs3 i accidentally selected an other Cydgenmod recovery for Galaxy Grand and didn't notice and so installed with Odin, than after the device rebooted i tried to boot to recovery but stuck on samsung galaxy logo so i thought it was a problem with vol up button and turned the phone on and send the command reboot recovery with adb . now it wont boot just stuck at samsung galaxy logo, i cannot get in download mode because of volume down button that its not working.
Does anyone know anyway of fixing this or the onliest way is to fix the volume down button?
Thanks for your time first !

I updated adaway and know the phone is stuck at the samsung boot logo. Tried going into recovery but phone wont go to recovery mode . Could be because of the sticky power button issues ?
What are my options here reinstall stock rom . I had slim beam installed with TWRP recovery. Tried these steps 2) Hold down home, power, and volume UP , phone vibrates and then its back to the samsung logo.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Hold volume up and down, press power button until it vibrates and let go of power button only. This is for T989. The procedure for T989D is different.
Using Odin and installing stock Rom manually
Hey, it sounds like you have the same problem i had. What i did to fix it is download the stock ROM for my phone and download Odin. The i reinstalled the rom ontu the phone and it worked fine. Just look uo how to do this for you type of phone included moded for example i had a tmobile samsung galaxy s2 t989.
Phone was fine for few days , restored it with odin now same issue. Phone shows samsung loho and nothing happens . Not sure whats causing this or its the not good build quality of of these phones..
Hi all,
I recently tried flashing the latest twrp recovery onto my galaxy s3 from an app called recovery tools I had installed from the play store. After flashing, I hit reboot into recovery. The phone then shut down and said it was trying to reboot into recovery but just came up with a black screen. I have taken out the battery and put it back in multiple times, and I have tried booting into download mode, but no mater what I do, it keeps trying to reboot into the non working recovery. I have the ATT galaxy s3 running cm 11 4.4.2 and I have the xposed framework installed. Please help! I'm at a loss for what to do! Thank you!
fixed
Well guys I just wanted to post that I have found the fix in case anyone was having the same issue that I was. Unplug the battery and wait 6 minutes, then plug it back in and enter download mode by holding vol down, home, and the power button then when the screen pops up with a warning, hit cancel and reboot, and then your phone should boot up!
Dear all,
Here is the story what happened exactly to my phone.
2 weeks ago my phone restarted by it self and stuck on the Samsung logo, I download the stock rom and flash it with odin. (My power button wasn't working very well but it did the job), after a while my power button completely went out of service. so whenever I needed to restart the phone I always do the battery trick and I have no problem with that.
4 days ago my phone restarted again and stuck on the Samsung logo and sense the power button wasn't working, I couldn't get access to the download mode, so Yesterday I bought a new power button and its working perfectly. but now I cant access the download mode.
Here is what happened to the phone when I pressed the vol down and menu button + power button the Samsung galaxy note II GT-N7100 logo flashed for a couple of times then it loads to the Samsung logo where it is stuck.
I tried the vol up + down with the pc cable nothing, i tried to get into the recovery mode nothing, and still note able to get in the download mode.
So please help me to get into the download mode so i can be able to flash the stock rom through odin again.
I've been having this problem for over a day, where, my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II model fails to boot into recovery mode.
I've successfully rooted my device, however, prior to this the recovery menu booted fine.
Any suggestions or input? Should I unroot it so I can bring back my recovery menu?
(ELABORATATION)
After I press the HOME + VOLUME UP + POWER buttons, the screen flashes a little bit, and turns off.
You could try flashing CWM Recovery through Odin and then try booting to recovery mode. I came across this problem once and this solution worked for me.
Hello everyone.
So my phone got stuck in safe mode a while ago and the volume down button kept going off on its own when the device was on.
It never occurred to me that the reason I couldnt get out of safe mode was because my vol - button was pressed all the time when it was rebooting, making the phone boot into safe mode.
So I decided to upload a new rom, got into download mode via adb (adb reboot download) and uploaded a new firmware.
Now the phone is stuck in boot loop and I cant go into recovery or download mode, since the volume keys are not working properly and I cant boot into my phone to turn developers options on and do it via adb.
Do you guys have any idea what I should do to save this phone? Is it officially beyond repair?
Any suggestion will be very appreciated
Thanks
I would say fix the volume buttons you not going anywhere if those arent fixed.
