Enter download mode (hold [VOLUME-DOWN][HOME][POWER] until buzz, then release [POWER]). At the first download mode screen where it says you can press volume-down to boot normally, press volume-down to boot normally.

Same problem as OP, and I can not get into download mode either. If I do as above, it still goes on booting .

If the advice above didn´t work (nothing happened when pressing the usual VOL down - home - power etc), this is how I managed:
I tried booting around 25 times with the power button released at different times. Did not work.
Tried to insert battery when pressing the 3 buttons. Did not work.
I let the battery run completely empty. Started charging the phone and pressing the 3 buttons. Did not work.
I charged the phone full (with booting the whole time....needed to put it somewhere quiet). After estimating it was full, I pulled out the battery, preparing to send it to mobiletechvideos.com (they saved me before). After a few hours I wanted to see the error message so I could write them. When I inserted the battery, I got the regular download mode! Nowthen, would I dare to boot it since I am not really sure what to flash to my phone?
I rebooted, and now the phone is back to normal. OTOH, I will not try to flash CWM/TWRP again, so goodbye custom roms (Omega )

you are a life saver!

I thought I was going to have to factory reset my phone like other forums suggested and lose everything. Thanks to your suggestion I was able to get out of recovery reboot loop. Thank you!

Thanks for your help, you are a lifesaver lol! I saved so much money and time because of you. Have a great day

My Fix
I held down the Down volume key along with the power and spammed the home button until the download screen came on, just keep spamming it while holding down the other keys, it will reboot just keep spamming, then I plugged it in to my computer, opened Odin and re installed the Root and it booted up fine

Um. U might wanna flash back to stock. Your phone shouldn't do that. Ur messing up your bootloader. Flash newest firmware via Odin

The phone is fine now, it was just stuck on the loop and spamming home was the only way out, its fine now I've had no problems and it boots up fine

This happens...
This happens to almost everyone at some point of time. There is no need to worry as you just need to flash recovery like TWRP or CWM. To shed some light on this issue... boot loops mainly happen when you uses the incorrect version of software with your ROM or stock firmware. By using youtube you can look at the videos of your phone model and find the recovery version number needed.
For anyone who has a Note 3 T-Mobile phone who is still stuck! I am willing to make a video to show how to fix this and provide all the firmware/version numbers + links in one bundled location to make it easier.
ALL PHONES ARE VERY specific... ONLY USE THE CORRECT FIRMWARE FOR YOUR MODEL PHONE
Again, if you have a Samsung Note 3 T-Mobile, model number SM-N900T and are still lost. Let me know so I can shot a video and bundle files needed.

Don't be scared by this... just choose the correct versions before blindly trying to install a ROM. Also, only use links from main sources if you dont fell like auditing the code!

Hi guys, sorry for might be late about helping you now years later... But recently I've found something interesting about fixing this issue.
*****
Fix: (100% working in Galaxy Grand Prime SM-G530H)
UPDATED: More detailed info!
# Before flashed Recovery or Root:
1. Root device using Odin or any other rooting known workaround.
2. Backup Recovery (optional), and Kernel using Rashr (available on PlayStore).
3. Flash Custom Recovery (TWRP), using Odin PC software or TWRP android app.
4. Flash backed-up Kernel.img file to Boot partition using TWRP install section.
5. Reboot system (It may take a few time to boot)
# After flashed Recovery or Root: (accidentally or without knowing)
1. Search online and download your exact Phone Stock Kernel.
2. Follow *before flashed* above ↑ from 3rd.
Bonus info:
Even after flashing TWRP, you might be able to Boot device yet, by going to TWRP → Advanced → Reboot system. (It bypass bootlooping to Recovery, while: “Set Warranty Bit : Recovery”).
That's all! Try at your own, then share it!

[Q] T-Mobile Note 3 stuck in a auto-restarting, recovery bootloop

Hello, I am new to these forums. I mostly registered for this one specific problem.
I'm pretty sure the phone isn't hardbricked, but I tried rooting my T-Mobile Galaxy Note 3 (4G LTE version) with Klingo. After that, it said the root was successful and the phone immediately restarted itself. However, it was then stuck in a bootloop and it just kept restarting itself. The phone turns on, and then the "Samsung Galaxy Note 3" logo appears with "RECOVERY....." in blue in the top left corner, and directly under that it says "Set Warranty Bit: recovery" in yellow. Then after about 3-4 seconds it shuts off, then about 2 seconds later it restarts automatically and just keeps looping like that.
T-Mobile said they would replace the phone, and they'll be sending me a new one as soon as the old one reaches the return center. Obviously I didn't tell them what I actually tried to do. In case they're able to find out what I tried to do and end up sending my old one back, I just wanted to ask this question preemptively so I might have an idea of what to do.
I HAVE TRIED BOOTING INTO RECOVERY MODE AND DOWNLOAD MODE. No button combinations cause anything to happen. The only thing that stopped the auto-restarting and looping was taking the battery out. Upon putting the battery back in, it will stay off until I manually turn the phone on again, where it will then continue to auto-restart and loop itself.
I do not have the phone right now because I sent it to a return center after spending a few hours searching online for answers and talking to T-Mobile on the phone. But if any of you have any ideas it would certainly be a great help if the worst case scenario ends up happening. Thanks for any potential solutions!

I have no idea what the issue is, but it seems you might not have a recovery installed on the phone. Try this:
Hold power + volume to go into bootloader (I know you said you tried various combinations, but make sure you're doing it correctly.).
Go into fastboot
flash a new recovery image from (TWRP or CWM) (how to: https://sites.google.com/site/tomsgt123//adb-fastboot)
reboot and go into recovery, then use adb sideload to flash a new ROM.

I have no idea whether this will work, but it's worth a try. Please don't blame me if your phone gets even more messed up than it already is.

Thank you so much. I will definitely try this. I was also getting replies elsewhere that if I can see the logo, I should be able to get into download mode where I could then flash the stock ROM. Honestly, it does seem like I somehow may not have a recovery installed.
If they send me my old phone back I will definitely give this a try. Thanks a bunch! And don't worry, I won't hold you accountable haha.

So basically your problem was fixed by keeping the battery out for an extended period of time? Did you get the same problem as I did, with the phone trying to boot into recovery constantly and failing due to having no recovery image?
I never kept the battery out for more than 2-3 minutes, so that's another option for me to try if they send my old phone back and the first guy's suggestion doesn't work.

Yes, I had the exact problem. I tried to have the battery out for 10 minutes, and also ran out of battery during a nightly discharge. Still I could not get it to work. The only way was to leave the battery out for several hours. Beats me, but it worked.
Having bricked a device completely before, I am confident that your phone will be able to get fixed. This isn´t even semi-bricked
Good luck - let me know what happened!

When that happens and you go back to normal, are you able to access recovery mode afterwards if you want to? Or does trying to cause the same loop? Is it wise to re-flash the stock firmware just to be safe?

I never dared to try. But since I always used Windows under Mac (Parallells) or the fact that I used Windows 7 or 8, I tried to flash CWM on a native Windows XP PC today and it worked. So now I have a custom ROM working which I never thought would happen :laugh:
Sorry I did not try to access recovery before so you would know

No that's alright, I just wanted to know if it was something I should avoid. :laugh: I'll use Odin to flash the official firmware back on regardless.

I had this happen to me, what had occurred was that the efs was corrupt. Here's the fix:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507403
Now to implement this fix, you must first be able to get into download mode. To do so:
1. Pull the battery
2. Wait 10-20 secs
3. Reinsert battery WHILE holding power button and (volume down + home???, whatever the key combination is)
5. Phone will boot directly to download mode, no logo
6. Flash twrp via odin
7. Phone will reboot into bootloop again
8. Repeat steps 1-4 except this time use the key combination for recovery
9. You must now use adb and push the file I linked to earlier
10. Then without rebooting you must flash it
11. Reboot and problem solved

Fixed issue with continuous recovery boot
So, this issue was somewhat perplexing, and while the information shared was hopefully valuable to some, it took me about 2 minutes to
fix this and get back into download mode.
Take the battery out of the device, then plug the device into USB (If you're having same issue I was device will not show charging or turn on when plugged in.) Then with the device plugged in to usb and the battery out, hold down the Download mode combination Vulume +, Home and Power, then simultaneously slide in the batter, the phone will boot into download mode and you can get back to stock.
Hope this helped! If it did, leave a thanks.

This is exactly what I posted above lol

LOL Sorry. When I flash the TWRP file it just rebooted the phone back into the Hyper Drive Rom I'm using, did it do the same for you?

Thanks to everyone who has provided information and tried to help me! Thankfully, T-Mobile simply sent me a new phone. However, I'm definitely going to keep this topic bookmarked for future reference. This seems to be a rather uncommon problem, considering I had to make a topic to find a solution since all of my searches didn't give me any results.
Thanks again to everyone!

U r My neww Mirical worker I messed up a Mobile Odin Flash At work today trying to get the newish NE6
couldnt get it to boot into download after the screw up but read this this morning nd after trying everything else it worked perfect
thank you thank you

I'm having the same problem with my TMobile Note3 after using Kingo after upgrading via Kies to the latest Firmware. The only difference is my phone immediately starts rebooting as soon as I put the battery back in. It doesn't appear that any keys stop this and the USB isn't recognized by my computer in time before the reboot cycle starts.
Is there anything else to try other than sending the phone back for warranty replacement?
tim

Yeah Kingo has given me nothing but trouble, I'd steer clear of that software. I'm assuming you have no access to recovery mode? I have had that issue before on an S3 and was able to finally get it into download mode, but the battery being inserted immediately boots the phone up. So what you have to do is 1. Take battery out and unplug usb cable. 2. Plug USB cable in and Hold download mode buttons with BATTERY OUT (vol+, home and power) 3. insert battery simultaneously while holding buttons down, phone will boot up.. After holding down for about 10 seconds phone will manually reboot, 4. When screen shuts off (potentially vibrates) release download mode buttons, then IMMEDIATELY press and hold download mode buttons again (must perform this step FAST, the key is to do it right before the screen turns on if you can.) 5. The manual boot you've performed should allow you to trigger download mode. I was eventually able to get this to work (about 3 tries. ) I believe your download mode is still intact, you just have to use this method to access it. Remember that because your phone atuo boots with battery inserted download mode will only be available by manual reboot not battery insert.
Give thanks if I assisted you.. Your phone isn't a hard brick so Jtag service should be unnecessary at this juncture.

I read on many posts and comments that everyone is able to boot in download mode. My Note 3 just stuck on recovery boot and I can't get it to boot in download mode. I tried all of the suggestions about pressing three buttons, removing battery etc.
Does anyone know solution for when you can't get into download mode?
Thanks

[Q] Can't boot to recovery

I have a F400K G3 (Korean Olleh). It's rooted and bumped. I flashed the bumped TWRP image via Flashify and rebooted recovery via Flashify. It works. But when I try boot to recovery from a complete shutdown. It just boots into safe mode. I did exactly what was stated in the Bump thread (Power+V. Down, when logo appears, release then press again quickly) and also tried substituting V. Down button with V. Up, but it still wont boot to recovery. It just keeps going into safe mode. The video provided in the thread was using an AT&T model so maybe it differs from every variant. I want to know if I'm doing something wrong or the instructions are wrong.
Thank you.

You tried without releasing? Just keep holding buttons

I have tried it as well without releasing. Does the same thing. And it never shows the reset screen. It just goes directly to the boot animation. Rebooting from Flashify also doesn't show the reset screen but it does get to TWRP. But I need to boot it from complete shutdown because I'm gonna test a Flashable zip ROM without root so rebooting using Flashify would be impossible.

Bump.
Seriously. Anyone?

I am subscribing because I have the exact same problem. I have tried every key combination I could find for the G2 and G3 but no luck...

This is exactly the kind of problems you get when using stuff like Flashify. The holding of the buttons etc you mentioned should work. Are you sure you aren't connected using a micro usb?

No, I am not connected to USB. If I reflash the recovery using ADB will it work? But I do have some worries because I'm using KitKat bootloader on a Lollipop Stock-based ROM (here) and I think I may get some errors.
It's not very important right now because I have root now and can reboot to recovery using Flashify.

I think all korean models cant enter recovery via hardware keys, mine is F400L and have the same problem.

Untouched LG G3
I have a completely untouched LG G3 uk version only official software no root etc and mine won't go into hard reset mode. I have tried 3 or 4 times it always goes into safe mode

Turn off the phone completely. Press and hold Power and Volume Down. When the LG logo appears, release. After a split second, press volume down and volume up. White screen asking you to reset will appear. Press Yes two times using Volume buttons.

UP!!!
Any remedies? I justed from stock to cm12 LG g3 F400L..
Cant go to recovery mode. Cant flash anything..

Same prob,always going to safemode.f400k rooted,cloudy2.5

i've Lg g3 F4ooL and using Resrruction remic 5.5.5
I stuck in a Bootloop and my device is also not booting into Recovery or safe Mode.
Lg flash Tool is also not Connecting to my device in Downloadmode.
I think There is NO solution At ALl

Has anyone solved this issue?

to get in recovery on F460s, worked on mine, Press Vol-up + Power, as the logo appears release the keys and press Vol-up + Vol-down, you will boot into recovery.

I have the same issue, cant go into recovery using hard buttons on F400K. Any one able to succeed in this?

Same issue on LG G3 F460S, no combination of power + volume buttons + releasing them and pressing again when LG logo appears works. The device go straight into booting system and gets stuck. Is there any other method - maybe short-circuit some pins on the motherboard, to boot into recovery or do a system reset? Please...

OK, turns out that the combination is different for Korean models of G3, as misbah711 wrote, volume UP + power, when logo appears, release and press both volume UP + volume DOWN. If that does not work, try again, but release only the POWER button and press immediately volume DOWN (while volume UP was held all the time). Also, I first tried it without the back cover, as I have to remove battery to turn it off, did not work. Then with the cover it did, not sure if it's an important detail or not.
However it's not the end of the story for me. An image with Korean text appears, and nothing. No combination of power and volume buttons pressing does anything. I'm attaching the image. Also tried a web service to do Korean OCR and then used Google Translate - does not make any sense. Could anyone advise how to proceed and do a factory reset on this device? It won't boot into the system (gets stuck), no adb or any other communication with it.
Edit:
Turns out that when the Korean text appears and I connect USB cable to my PC, adb works correctly. Typed:
adb reboot recovery
The phone rebooted into recovery and now I'm doing a factory reset on it. Looks like all will be fine.

i have d851 on stock kitkat. I flashed TWRP and Philz but no way i can get into recovery mode. it always goes to fastboot mode no matter how I reboot into recovery. Now i am looking for stock recovery image. or a way to fix the twrp/philz. ROM boots just fine.

LG G4 bricked - cannot get into recovery or download mode.

Hello everyone, I hope you can help me. My husband tried to downgrade his LG G4 UK model from Marshmallow to Lollipop, using LGUP. The process failed and the phone is now bricked. I switch it on, and the "LG powered by Android" screen comes on, followed by the other LG screen. The phone just sits like that. I have tried to boot to recovery, and boot to download mode; but can do neither. I have also tried connecting to LGUP, LG Bridge, and the LG Mobile Support Tool. None of these can find the phone, as it needs to be switched on to be located by the programs. When I connect the phone to my laptop, I get the "thump" sound that shows the phone is connected to the computer. That is all I can get though. Is there a way out of this, and back to getting the phone working again? I would be grateful for any advice you can offer me to resolve this issue.

I think it's hard bricked. In that case, you can't recover it.

I have now been able to get the phone into download mode. I was hoping that getting into download mode might help LGUP to see the phone, but I can't find a way of doing that.

We're on the same boat.

Did It - Fixed It!

I took a punt, and the punt worked. I disconnected the phone from the computer, and pulled the battery. Then I re-inserted the battery. Next, I tried to get the phone to boot into download mode, by pressing power and volume down; with the phone disconnected from the computer. The phone then brought up a screen, asking if I wanted to do a factory reset. I chose "yes" and it asked me again (presumably in case I had pressed "yes" in error. The phone then powered down, before powering up, and optimising apps. Then it went to the welcome/sign in screen. All the previous apps are lost, but at least the phone is working now. Hubby is chuffed to bits with his "new" phone.

It's a hard reset, not download mode. Glad that it worked for you I already tried it several times but I can't get past the screen saying Android starting apps.

Stuck in download mode

Stock device, asked me to update, downloaded etc.
Life was great.
Phone restarted, all was when in the world, apps were up and running. Then poof!
Phone restarted and see attached image. This screen comes up. Unresponsive. Trying to go into download mode or anything else is pointless. In fact can't even turn the phone off.

just flash this with Odin :https://dl2018.sammobile.com/Odin3-v3.13.3.zip and you are good to go : https://samfrew.com/download/Galaxy__A70__/edhk/SEK/A705FNXXU3ASJ3/A705FNOXM3ASJ3/

hope you have managed to solve the problem. if not then try the following
1) keep pressing all three hardware buttons until the phone reboots. this should force the handset to reboot.
2) if that doesn't work then let the power drain out. once its shut. connect it to the pc/laptop while pressing the power+volume up key until u boot into recovery from there boot into bootloader and flash the stock os again.
hope this helps.
