Hey guys,
So I have an interesting issue: I was trying to install a new boot animation but now the phone doesn't start. I tried installing the stock UVLE1 using Odin and that was successful, and the phone goes through the boot animation and the sound plays but the phone gets stuck at the samsung logo screen. I've tried reinstalling the rom a couple of times but everytime it gets stuck at the same spot.
I can't get into recovery (I tried adb but that didn't find a device, the power button is broken so can't do it manually), when the phone gets to the samsung screen it is not recognized by the computer but odin works fine (at boot).
I want to recover the info in the internal storage if that's possible and ideally fix the phone too.
If you guys have any suggestions, that would be awesome!
Thanks!
Edit: I've tried a lot of different stock roms from 2.3.6 to 4.1.2 and they all have the same issue (were successful but stuck on samsung logo)
Edit: Solution: Boot into odin and restart phone while holding volume up/down and remove usb to enter recovery.
Thanks to all that helped!

Have you tried clearing cache and dalvik cache after flashing?
Maybe even factory reset after.
And you will need to Odin the image, then Odin custom recovery right after to do those.
If you can't get into recovery ....then something is very wrong.

I can flash the recovery, but can't get into it because the power button is broken. If there's another way to get into recovery, let me know!
I'll try flashing and then flashing recovery right after and see if that works
Thanks for helping!
Edit: That didn't send it straight to recovery on boot either. Still stuck on the samsung logo.

Broken power button ....yeah, that's an issue. There are lots of apps to boot to it, if you're rooted.....but without the phone running and root, I'm not sure what you can do.
Maybe someone else does?
Fastboot command maybe?
I don't even remember if fastboot works with Samsung. Lol

Use adb to get to stock recovery, wipe data/factory reset, and it will boot. Easy.

Is the power button stuck in on position? if it is, it will most likely boot up just by putting in the battery and it should also auto restart about 15secs after you see the Samsung logo.
If your power button isn't stuck on and you can get the device to power up, hold both volume up & down while powering on device, no need to hold power on, once you see Samsung logo release volume keys and it should boot to recovery.

Power button was broken (in on position which basically made it reboot halfway while booting up) a while back. I removed the power button, and it was working fine for a couple of months.
BUT OMG YOU ARE A GENIUS! It worked.
Just for future reference if anyone needs it, here is what I did:
Enter the odin screen (with usb) and push vol down to reboot. Then quickly remove the usb and keep pressing the volume buttons until the samsung logo comes up and you're in recovery.
THANKS!!!! :good::good::good::good:
please help me!!!

You might have to factory reset in recovery (vol up + home + power). I read you removed the power button, that's so not useful lol.
Maybe you'll be able to use ADB to boot in recovery or a jig to boot in download mode (if it gets to that point).
no luck

Hold all 3 buttons until he boots up (vibrate), then release the power, while still holding home+vol up. It should boot in recovery.
Depending on your carrier, you may be able to flash a stock ROM via Odin.
If you have the 4.3 bootloader, only flash a stock 4.3 ROM. If you have a 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 bootloader, you can flash either a stock 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 ROM via Odin.

Also try press and hold power, home and volume up and down together to power of and then press and hold power, home and volume up to get to recovery where you can data factory reset and wipe cache which is what I did and mine did boot up eventually.
you had a different problem.
yours worked fine before and you couldnt get into recovery mode.
Mine doesnt boot after installing new ROM,
but recovery and odin mode stil work.
I made factory reset and wiped cash already before. Doesnt work.

I just wanted to say thank you. This also worked for me just now (i had flashed stock 6.02 back in as i was having issues seeing 5Ghz networks with my current image). It did take a while to boot, and had me thinking the procedure would not work...good thing you pointed out to wait patiently! :good:
Greetings XDA Developers,
Newbie here. I own a Samsung Galaxy Tab S (SM T705). I was able to root it a few weeks ago and I decided to install a custom recovery (TWRP) using an app from the Playstore named "TWRP Manager". I didn't hesitate to do so using this method because I was able to install TWRP on my GT I9300 successfully from the past using this app. However, after being prompted by the app that the recovery was successfully installed and needs to reboot the device, my tab was stuck on start up screen ( See attached photo ). I tried long pressing the power button but nothing happened. I waited until the device ran out of battery and when it did, I plugged in the charger and I'm back at the same screen. After google-ing some possible solutions, I tried to boot it into recovery but was unsuccessful, however, I was able to boot into download mode.
I'd like to ask for the help of some "experienced" users in this forum on how to solve this problem. And if possible, I'm hoping that flashing a stock recovery using Odin wouldn't be my last resort.
Thank you in advance.

Your going to need some fast hands for this one! I've ran into this lots of times when testing kernels and such. Any force reboot by holding Power Button+ Home Button + BOTH Volume buttons all at the same time. Press and hold that combo until the screen goes black. Then once the screen goes black quickly press and hold Power Button+ Home Button + Volume down buttons all at the same time. You should no enter into download mode. You said that you drained the battery so I would suggest charging it in download mode for 30 minutes or so then flash TWRP with Odin.
Your going to need to flash stock recovery or TWRP with Odin to override the boot and get it working
The TWRP app doesn't always work in which is why I use Odin.

As a side note for future reference, hard reset is simply hold POWER + VOL DOWN.
As said all you need do is boot to download mode and flash recovery.
If you're on lollipop you may need to immediately boot into recovery after flashing to make it stick.

Hey, thanks for the heads up. But how exactly do I "immediately boot into recovery after flashing to make it stick." Since after I flash recovery via odin, it would obviously automatically reboot my device? sorry for the dumb question.

You either be quick and hold POWER + HOME + VOL UP as soon as it reboots or you uncheck auto reboot in Odin then restart manually.

So did the solution work? I am looking at a SM-T705 on ebay being sold for parts with similar symptoms. hoping I can fix it for a great bargain.
Right out of the RetailBox (with stockRom) I couldn't reboot into recovery using the "VolumeUp+Home+PowerButton" step...
Even now after installing a custom rom and twrp recovery I can't do the hardbutton action ("VolumeUp+Home+PowerButton") to get into the "recovery"
so whats the hiccup here? someone plz
thx

I just flashed a root... and then downloaded twrp through playstore and always rebooted with Newstart chosing reboot into recovery.... so it was fine till now..
now though, after installing IronRom .zip through twrp, it won't reboot anymore, it is stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy Tab S powered by android" starting screen.
Now I want to simply to the hardbutton reboot into recovery step, since i cant access it otherwise... but it doesn't react.
so whats the hiccup here?

I would also like to know this, I recently installed the PAC-MAN (unofficial) rom and things went weird. I tried to flash official Samsung ROM through Odin, things went well but got stuck in Samsung booting logo (not the one that says powered by Samsung). The logo that comes after the Samsung jingle.

So there is no way to get the HardButton way to work?
(My customRom already has multiple shutdown and restart option... thats how i've been operating.)
But once one is stuck somewhere and can't get to the system level (like boot loop or whatnot) it would be great to enter the recovery anyway... thx

You can enter recovery any time you want, you just need to do it right.
Hold POWER + HOME + VOL DOWN until the screen goes blank then immediately change to VOL UP whilst still holding the other buttons until recovery boots.

Holy Damn... thanks a lot!!!! that was really bugging me. I never found anything apart from just holding home+power+volumeup
I just tried this after trying other button combinations found on the web to try to get it to hard reset but nothing happens with my Tab S...it still stays stuck on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S startup screen. Any suggestions as to why that is?

Just signed in to say thanks for this, but for some reason I had to do it slightly differently. I was on stock 5.0.2 and trying to boot into recovery (Power+Volume UP+Home would start Samsung splash screens and then go black without ever booting into Recovery) so my solution was:
Shutdown Tab S, then hold down Power+Volume DOWN+Home (as though to get into Download mode) and then immediately after pressing that initially, I pressed Volume UP while still holding Power+Home.
Problem solved.
