[GT-I9190] Soft Bricked, Odin says Pass but no apparent change - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys, No one seems to be able to help me with this problem so i've come here.
My device is soft bricked, when booted normally it stays on the Samsung Splash Screen, doesn't restart or anything it just freezes here.
I am able to get into Download Mode (Pwr + Vol Down + Home).
However though i am unable to access Recovery, When i press (Pwr + Vol Up + Home) it boots and shows the blue "Recovery Booting" in the top left then just Hangs on the TWRP 3.0.0-0 Slash Screen then reboots in normal mode.
I've tried flashing custom Roms and Recoveries (TWRP / CWM) via both Odin and Heimdall and it appears to be successful, however though absolutely nothing changes on the device, it still hangs on the Samsung Slash Screen in Normal Boot and
it shows the EXACT same TWRP 3.0.0-0 Slash Screen even after allegedly successfully flashing CWM.
So i'm clueless as to what is going on here.
Any help is appreciated, Thanks in advance.

i hate to bump but bump.
anyone got any ideas ?

Hold power+home+volume up and down buttons all at the same time until it's fully shutoff. Then quickly press the download mode button combo and reflash twrp

Thanks for the answer but i can't get the device to enter download mode. When i reboot the device (with any combination of keys) it says on top left corner of the screen "Recovery Booting..." and then it enters to teamwin screen loop, no matter what i press.

Wait till its completely dead. Plug it in and press the download mode button combo. Might be your last hope

Thanks for your answer but the same think happens.
Same appened here. After a factory reset its stucked on teamview boot loop.
Anyone got a solution??
Solved by flashing cf-auto-root with odin on download mode.
Just ran into this myself haha. The device is just soft-bricked and I managed to get it into Odin mode (Download). Will let it charge for a bit then either flash stock firmware with Odin or try flashing TWRP again to see if that fixes it
Edit: flashing the latest TWRP worked
Same thing is happening to me. I get stuck in the teamwin boot loop and cannot get into the download mode to fix with Odin.
This all came about after trying to factory wipe the device due to Google Play not working correctly. I'll repost if I have success...
Just recovered my tablet from the same issue. In order to get into download mode, I had to let the battery fully drain. Then, holding the home and vol down keys, I plugged it into the charger. Plugging the charger in while the battery was drained automatically powered it up. After I saw the download warning, I released the buttons and entered download mode as usual. Then I flashed the latest TWRP with Odin.
No other combination of booting or button pressing worked. Trying to enter download with home+vol down and pressing power did not work for me either.
Good luck and PM me if you have any questions about this. I hope I explained it correctly.

Stuck at boot - can't boot to recovery

I just installed flashify and TWRP. When I let flashify reboot the phone, it stuck at the main boot logo. I can get it to briefly reboot with vol down + power, but it just hangs back at the same screen. I tried holding vol up + power + home during that brief period of time but nothing happened.
Any ideas?

same here

I'm experiencing this too, I installed stock firmware and it is still doing this. I need to access recovery so I can clear cache and partition but this damn phone refuses to get to recovery mode. It'll go to download mode no problem, but trying to get to recovery mode is just impossible this way. Anybody???

Possibly bricked HTC One M8

Ok,
Was installing the viper rom on my M8, and for some reason, now my phone is stuck in a boot loop. Obviously the install went pear shaped. But now I cant even boot the phone into recovery mode.
Boot sequence now is: Google lettering appears on screen, followed by green android with the blue spinning shape in its chest, then the green android with the red triangle and black exclamation mark appears and the whole thing loops again.
When plugged into the PC its not recognized so I cant use adb to boot into recovery or try load another rom/wipe cache etc.
I've tried all combinations of power button & volume up/down to break the boot sequence, no joy.
Any ideas how to resolve, or do I have a very expensive paper-weight?
Cheers,

Rest assured, if the screen comes on, the phone isn't bricked.
Red triangle with exclamation point is stock recovery.
What was your exact sequence, in detail? From bootloader unlock, install custom recovery, etc.
Was the phone on Lollipop when you unlocked the bootloader?
To reboot into bootloader (not recovery, there is no button sequence to boot directly into recovery on this device):
1) Hold power and vol up for several seconds to force a reboot
2) The moment the screen goes black to reboot, let go of the buttons, and only hold vol down
3) Don't let go of vol down until you are on the bootloader screen
4) Failure to get into bootloader is virtually always user error. You either started pressing vol down too late, or let go of it too early. Just repeat until you get it right.
But from there, as mentioned it sounds like you are on stock recovery. You will probably need to flash TWRP again via fastboot in order to do much more.
Did you flash a custom recovery before you flashed the rom?? Can you boot in the bootloader mode (turn of Device completely- turn on again and hold volume down all the time.. then you should be in the bootloader)?
And your phone is not really bricked
Edit: damn to slow should not write on the phone

My friend, did you flash it using stock recovery or custom recovery? if you did flash it using stock recovery you will meet this kind of problems. I suggest you try power button and down if im not mistaken and go to hboot and fastboot usb and connect to adb, type fastboot devices in cmd if it detects your device then you can flash TWRP , find any kind of custom rom for M8 and flash it. I also assume your bootloader is unlocked and driver is installed in your PC.
Problem solved. Redpoint73's key press combination worked!

Cant boot into recovery mode

Hi,
I need some help.
So i rooted my D855 G3.
I then flashed the TWRP recovery image on the phone. Now every time i try to boot to recovery mode , my phone shows a "boot certification verify error" in the top left corner and then goes to a black screen with the LED flashing blue and red.
I am able to get back into my regular phone OS , so its not bricked. I have tried several methods of getting into recovery mode (apps, holding power + vol down, adb).
Please can someone help me with this , ive read soo many threads but cannot find a straight answer on how to get passed the error
Thanks

Hi, can anyone help please. i attempted rooting with odin and was on the latest android 10. Following a guide https://appuals.com/how-to-root-the-samsung-galaxy-tab-s4/ i hadnt realised it may of been for Oreo.

Thanks
