PLZ HELP!!!

If you can still start in Download mode (Home key + Volume Down key + Power key) or in Recovery mode (Home key + Power key) it's not hard-bricked so it can be revived.
Options to try: start in recovery and wipe data/factory reset (recommended when changing roms), reflash stock rom with odin and do same as above...

I dont know where to get stock rom?????

Search for a multifile ROM (for Gio) and flash it with ODIN

flash with odin.

I am Going to try it .... Lets hope evry thing goes alrite.........

I also bricked my phone 2days before and rcovered.dont worry.
You need to get odin flashable firmware files.
My suggesion is to google with your phones no like s5360
... Etc try googling PDA_S5560...DDK etc etc
They will be group of files with extension .tar and filename starts in my case with PDA_S5360....,MODEM_S 5360....,BOOT_S....
Etc. best luck

Hello and a sorry for my english
I've done something very very stupid. In the ROM Manager I choose, by mistake, in the Flash ClockworkMod Recovery a different phone than my one and then I push the Backup Current Rom option.In that moment my galaxy gio crashed... it is completely off, I ve try to push all the buttons it is really dead.
What can I do?
There is a very small space on the bottom of the phone where I can push with something to restart it?
Help please

Rom Manager author should really get those CWM recoverys out of that list ... lately a lot of ppl flash wrong CWM`s and brick their phones
No, u don`t have any "hidden button to reset it "
Try to get your battery out, leave it alone for 5 mins or so, and then put battery in and press Volume Down + Home button + power button same time and see if u can get to Downloading mode
If that works, try to flash a stock rom with Odin, there are some tutorials here use the search button

Rom managers recovery for Gio is outdated (4.X.X), better use recovery 5.X.X by Phiezx

How to Enter Recovery Mode on LG G Pro

shutdown it down - turn off the phone wait few secs before going to next step
hold volume up button while holding power button also
when lg logo appear release/unpress power button just for a sec or two and then press and hold it back
Done
if its not working, it must be, u dont have recovery installed
use freegee to install one

hi
I dont understand
I try alot off time but dont secsuss

Assuming that the phone's power is off:
Hold down volume up button, then push the power button and hold it down. Count to 4 and stop holding the power button, but keep holding the volume up button. You should see the lg logo and then your recovery 5 ~ 7 seconds afterwards. Btw, which recovery are you using?

Custom recovery?
Is there a way to install a custom recovery on this phone? I read conflicting reports. I'm on 4.4.2 rooted and would to make a back up of my system, add zips, etc.

Have you try freegee in the play store? It installs the older version of cwm or twrp, but it's a start. Once you install the custom recovery, you can try flashing the newer version such as Philz cwm or newer version of twrp.

thanks
i do all this but no chances to enter into recovery
can help me with a video for that method

check if u have recovery mode installed
get FreeGee
and boot to it

I tried that before and got error messages. Some people say it worked and some say they had to wipe everything and it still did not work. Maybe the newer version works as I tried this 2 months ago.

Are you rooted?

for twrp recovery this key combination is not working, please help to go to recovery through key combination....

its working here

i'll try to help u
first just make sure that your device is rooted, download Optimus G Pro Custom recovery (try to search on google, i found many links last time i download it), install that .apk on your device and then run it, choose flash recovery, and then choose reboot recovery. you will have recovery now. hope this helps. :angel:

Heyy! I wanna install twrp and then install cm12 nightly but I've read on other threads that flashing twrp directly will brick my phone and I'll have to install cwm first then cwm touch then twrp from there but on another thread it tells me to directly install twrp from freegee on stock JB.
Can anyone explain this to me? It's really confusing and I wanna know if flashing twrp will brick my phone. Im on stock kk but ill go back to JB and try it. Someone tell me if thats a good idea?

While you're on stock ROMs, just use Philz Touch. But if you ever go to like CyanogenMod or any other non-stock ROM. Flash that ROM with Philz Touch, then flash official TWRP. After, you can stay on TWRP once running a custom ROM.

Tab S Stucked in Samsung Boot screen

Hi all !
i've flashed the Clockwork recovery before this, and i wanted to flash IronRom for my tablet.
Now after flashing recovery, prompted no OS found. So i tried to flash stock ROM, but my tablet stucked at Samsung Boot screen and i cannot access recovery via Power + Up + Menu key.
Is there any other way to access recovery other than using the keys combination ? my Odin cannot detect my Tab as well..
appreciate any help , TIA .

Install the latest Samsung drivers for this device and check if it gets connected to Odin.

CLOCKWORKMOD recovery or Twrp?
It's highly unlikely flashing recovery wiped the os unless you chose the wrong option in Odin or wiped in recovery.

TWRP Recovery Touch Screen not working.

Hello So i have come to this magical website that has helped me with my issues before to bring up one of my own that i can't seem to find a solution for.
So recently i have rooted my Galaxy S6 using ODIN and what not. And everything went perfect, soon after that i flashed TWRP recovery on my phone so i could get some ROM's. But when i tried booting into TWRP, it gave me a welcome screen telling me to select a language. As soon as i tried making a selection i saw that i wasn't able to Tap nor swipe anywhere or anything really. So i was like....ok let me just flash a different versoin. Booted up to recovery and still ran into the same problem. I can't use the tough interface and idk what to do. Came here for some help
Model : SM-G920P
Version of TWRP : twrp-3.0.2-1
========UPDATE========
So recently i was trying to download exposed and caught myself not knowing what to do at all. I booted into recovery yet again cause i flashed a different version. And same thing happened. I try navigating through TWRP interface and still can't get it to do anything. So i try going back my regular usage of my phone, and then hit problem #2....it kept booting into recovery. And every time i try to reset my phone it just automatically boots into recovery. IDK what to do :/ and would love for someone to help me out.

Reflash the stock rom via odin..u need to be in download mode for this download the rom search it here on sprint xda ... After succesful flash download app call flashify go to recovery flash twrp download the version u havent flashed before im sure u already know the one that didnt worked before ... flash yup it then it will take u too recovery wipe to enter if touch still not works reflash again via odin in download mode then flashify different version of TWRP

Grab the TAR file from here: https://dl.twrp.me/zerofltespr/
Flash via ODIN.

This might not really help the OP. But for anyone whom stumbled upon the same problems. Just do
adb recovery
And the phone should boot into OS normally after stuck on TWRP which the touchscreen is not working

Happened to me as well, I just out smarted them , use an OTG and a mouse and you're golden.

Solved TWRP Touch not Working on S6edge
Hey I had the same problem too. I solved it by getting the right TWRP for my device. You can find it here. Please copy the url "twrp.me/Devices/"

I downloaded the right file, yeah. But I can't run the image on my phone since I can't use the touch screen. Is there another way to run the image on my phone?

Sorry for the late response. Have you tried an OTG cable with a USB mouse. I had to do this just last week. Those OTG cable are lifesavers for this phone.

What message do you get in TWRP when you try to install? Wh8ch ROM is it? Is your BL unlocked?

no message at all, how are you meant to boot into recovery? i thought it was hold vol down when you boot? I have got dstrikerz1 kai installed. how do you check BL. I think its unlocked

When you boot the phone, you should get a colored led flash, maybe purple, then press up or down while led is lit. Alternately, if you have updated bootloader and a compatible recovery, you can turn off phone, then hold power and volume down together until vibrate, then release. If neither works, run XZDR installer on your PC, then try again - http://nut.xperia-files.com/

I get no flash when booting, I've tried pressing power and vol down until vibrate I just get a blank screen. I'm going to install XZDR I'll get back to you

Thx mate it worked I can now boot into recovery
