When I try to start my phone in recovery mode it stalls with the screen and samsung galaxy s on the screen.
Download mode works fine, but it hasn't stalled on recovery screen before. I have rooted the device, do I need to install anything additional?
What is the solution? to factory reset the device? reflash?
to enter recovery mode

you have to briefly let go of the power button and immediately hold back the power button
when you are doing the 3 button combo to go into the recovery screen

Hey there.
I am boarding an airplane in a couple hours so I am urgently seeking help.
I am using akop b25. I was installing a Google music apk and my phone restarted. It then went into a boot loop.
When I turn the phone in using power+volume down, it boots into a screen like fast boot except it says ODIN mode in red at the top, under the android picture it says downloading.... do not turn off the target. The only thing I can do from here is battery pull or press the power button to activate "start", which just boots the device and back into boot loop.
Can anyone help me with this situation. Thanks alot
Try another button combo. Volume up and power button?
In recovery, reflash the rom. I'm not sure though how an apk install caused boot loops.

To get to fastboot the button combo is Vol Up + Vol Down + Pwr. From there select recovery and reflash.

Is there anything else i can do? please help i love this phone lol
Make sure you were actually in download mode when you flash with Odin. (power + volume down + home key. Then press volume up when it prompts you to go into download mode) otherwise, have you tried flashing a different custom rom? It might just be a bad kernel.

ya ive done this. i actually got through the boot (the red pirate android mascot) and thought it was over but when it rebooted it just got stuck on the boot logo again /:
I had the same problem I can tell you my self that first MAKE SURE your doing the right steps to get back into download mode (btw if you can get back into download you can fix this with odin) don't bother trying to get into recovery soft brick is a soft brick... also it took me like 100 trys when mine bricked to get into download because I didn't follow directions.
here
for odin and download mode
(eg: for Odin)
Unplug the USB cable.
Shut down the phone.
Hold down the 'HOME' + 'VOLUME DOWN' buttons and press the 'POWER' button for about 2 seconds until a WARNING! Screen appears. Press the 'VOLUME UP' button to enter Download Mode.
To get out of Download Mode, simply press and hold the power button until the phone restarts
for recovery mode
Unplug the USB cable.
Shut down the phone.
Hold down the 'HOME' + 'VOLUME UP' buttons and press the 'POWER' button for about 5 seconds to enter Recovery Mode.
[edit]Download Mode
don't worry if you get a boot at all its not hopeless.... took me two days to unbrick mine and now I know how to fix it which is cool with me.
if need more specifc advise ask and I will post links to download reocvery you can flash to fix phone once you get into download which you will

So dude, make sure you're using the right ROM for the right model. since you didn't provide any of that info in the OP you may not get much help from here.

Sorry if this has been discussed before. I am not new to the rooting scene. But I am stuck on this issue
I am attempting to enter download mode for my Samsung Tablet 3 10.1 Wifi.
I am pressing the power / down volume combo and I get to the boot screen and let go. From here it goes right into recovery mode
I get the screen with the android and it says no command / error and stops there with the recovery options.
At this time I am on stock 4.2.2 and been trying to get this error figured out. I have searched briefly on here and googled other solutions but they all require to get into download mode, which I am having trouble getting to.
Any suggestions ? Or point me to a solution

Hi !
Thanks for the quick reply. I have tried that method as well and it still sends me to the recovery screen. Though I did manage to see a new screen that gave me a option to press volume up to continue and volume down to reboot. When I pressed volume up it just rebooted normally

Dude, try holding volume down plus home button (if it has one) for 30 sec. If this doesn't work try holding volume up and home button (only if it has one).

no it doesn't have a home button , and nothing will stop it , what i noticed tho that if i hold vol down and the power button the next time the logo will disappear way faster but only once each hold and ill get a delay of 2 seconds before that logo appearing again and the phone rebooting , its been literally 62 hours since it started doing this , it started with a battery fully charged meaning a 5000ma , about that delay i tried using it but nothing worked , i tried clicking vol up and power button which is supposed to put the phone in recovery mode but nothing happens , i went as far as spamming random buttons to holding them for more than a minute , nothing stops it

Then you hard bricked your device, sorry to tell you that. Take it to a service, and see if they can do anything to it, but you most surely bricked the hell out of your device, up to the point of no return.

If you want to boot into download mode try this:
When you see Samsung logo immediately press volume up + down and while holding connect the phone to PC using Type-C.
A warning screen will appear now press Volume Up button to boot into Download mode.

My samsung M30S was stuck at boot screen for no reason and tried everything until I came upon your post and did as described. I was able to get into safe mode and reboot the phone. Thanks very much.

Download mode not open for me :crying: :crying: :crying:
If you are stuck on Samsung Logo, connect to PC and press Vol Down + Power for 7 seconds. It will go to charge mode. Disconnect from PC and it will power off automatically. After that press Volume Up + Down and connect to PC while holding and you will enter download mode. It will ask for confirmation.
Useful. Works

Thank you for this post. I did this and my phone booted to TWRP. (I was flashing TWRP when I encountered the bootloop)
After booting to TWRP, I did an advanced wipe (I left System unchecked). After the wipe, the phone booted normally.
