Hi all,
I recently tried flashing the latest twrp recovery onto my galaxy s3 from an app called recovery tools I had installed from the play store. After flashing, I hit reboot into recovery. The phone then shut down and said it was trying to reboot into recovery but just came up with a black screen. I have taken out the battery and put it back in multiple times, and I have tried booting into download mode, but no mater what I do, it keeps trying to reboot into the non working recovery. I have the ATT galaxy s3 running cm 11 4.4.2 and I have the xposed framework installed. Please help! I'm at a loss for what to do! Thank you!
fixed
Well guys I just wanted to post that I have found the fix in case anyone was having the same issue that I was. Unplug the battery and wait 6 minutes, then plug it back in and enter download mode by holding vol down, home, and the power button then when the screen pops up with a warning, hit cancel and reboot, and then your phone should boot up!
So i decided to flash CWM recovery on my Note 3 via CWM (I had phillz recovery installed already), now the phone just wont boot up. It keeps saying Recovery Booting above the Note 3 logo for 2 seconds, then the phone restarts again showing the same message. I pulled the battery out and then inserted it back in but it boots the phone automatically with the same recovery booting message and restarts every 2 seconds. I cannot boot into recovery or put the phone in Download mode. Have I finally screwed my phone up? Any help would be very appreciated.
Can you Boot into download mode and Odin to stock?

I cannot. I have the battery of the phone out right now. As soon as i put the battery in the phone, it tries to reboot into recovery without me even pressing the power button. Then it again shuts off and tries to restart every 2-3 seconds.

Just some additional info, I flashed CWM recovery through Rom Manager. After flashing it, it asked to reboot the phone. As soon as the phone rebooted, i started having this issue.
I'm in a similar situation. I used to be able to use the phone controls (power-home-Vol Up) to be able to go into recovery mode, but even that has stopped functioning. The only way to get the phone to boot normally after that is to pull battery, put the phone in download mode and then cancel download mode to boot up normally.

I think the only way to get your phone into download mode now would be
to get a USB Jig from eBay or some online store.
They are under $5 bucks shipped.
Once you have that you would simply remove the battery from your
phone and then plug in the Jig before putting the battery back in.
The usb Jig is basically meant to be used for those
phones which will not go into download mode any
other way.
I have a Jig and as soon as it's plugged into the phone when the phone
is powered down it goes into download mode within 2-3 seconds.
Soon as its in download mode you can remove the jig and start a
clean Odin flash of the official stock firmware for your phone.
Good luck!

Thanks for that USB Jig suggestion. I guess that is my last hope.

Per suggestion from Misterjunky, I've now been successful in installing the Stock Tmobile 4.4.2 NB4 formware that I downloaded from sammobile. I used Odin 1.85 to install that on the Note 3. So far, the phone looks functional again.
So pressing power, vol down and menu doesn't get you into download? Have you tried holding them for at least 30 seconds?
I had this happen to me when I messed up flashing twrp. Pull the battery for 30 minutes, then put the battery in while holding power home and vol down.
That's what worked for me.

I encountered the same issue after flashing CWM Touch to my SM-N900T (Note3-Aus) running Infamous Rom on the BioShock kernel. After being stuck in the loop for a fair while I removed the battery, went to grab a cup of tea before completely raging at the phone, went back and put the battery back in. The phone did not boot automatically this time, a good sign I thought to myself. I then went on to hold down VolumeDown + Home + Power to see if I could get into download mode. I successfully booted into download mode and selected the reboot option. My Note3 then went on to boot successfully. Hopefully this helps :fingers-crossed:
I recently had the same issue......heres step by step:
1. with the battery OUT, grab the usb and plug into phone and computer
2 press volume down, power, and home at the same time.you should be in download mode at this point, and just press volume up to get into download mode.
3. open kies. and at this point you'd want to restore back sto stock as follows:
4. go to tools, firmware upgrade and intialisation
5. follow the on screen direction and then just wait.
6. if you want to re root, then feel free to once the phone is up and running.
i have tried this method so many times and hasnt failed me yet. IF this has helped anyone, please press the thank you button! :laugh::fingers-crossed:
I resolved the problem by flashing the phone back to T-mobile stock using Odin. In my case, the recovery was corrupted and hence the issue. After flashing back to stock, I was then able to root and install a TWRP recovery successfully.

I'm having the same problem, what I do is take out the battery put it back in and try to turn on the phone on recovery mode, and it will give me the option to restart the phone. Hope it works
Same problem has happened to me, do you guys know if the jigs are universal? The ones I see on amazon and ebay dont list the note 3 at all so I just want to be safe. Since upgrading to nf9 the recoveries have given me major issues, TWRP was really buggy so I switched back to CWM and this happens.
Scratch that, just rebooted. I would still like to know if its universal though, in case this happens again. Doesnt hurt to be prepared
You're a life saver, Thanks a ton

Note 3 (sm-n900w8) will not go into recovery mode after CWM Flash
Helllo Sorry if this is not in the proper place I have not had much experience posting.
my Phone is a Note 3 (sm-n900w8) Canada (rogers)
running Lollipop 5.0
base version n900w8vlu2doc4
kernel 3.4.0-4348112
[email protected]#1
build number ..... lrx21v.n900w8vlu2doc4
ap: n900w8vlu2doc4
I Flashed CF Auto root first (CF-Auto-Root-hltecan-hlteub-smn900w8.tar) All went well and I got root access
Then I Flashed CWM ( n900-cwm-recovery-6.0.5.0-kk_L5.0(0812)) and all seemed to go well but .. I could not get into
recovery mode. when I pressed vol up + Home + power key at the same time it went directly to download modes second screen..( the one that is ready for you to hit start on odin.) ...
I was able to reboot and try several times with the same result.
I then went and got the CWM app and tried to enter form there to only get stuck on the download mode without being able to reset.
then I flashed the CWM again and was back to being able to reset but not being able to get into recovery mode.
I updated CWM recovery setup from the app to the latest 6.0.4. and then tried to back up my current rom ... this let to a boot loop that said something like ..... Kernel is not seandroid enforcing...
once again I was able to get into download mode and had to re flash CWM and get back to my original problem ... not being able to get into download mode
Can anyone help me figure this out
Thanks
This might seem like the average bootloop to you but I've been through every thread on here about it and all the solutions have no effect: I can boot into Download mode or recovery (TWRP) but anything I do there has no effect... I've got two custom roms (CM, custom CM) and both result in the bootloop. I've tried formatting system, caches, data etc and flashing stock rom using ODIN but it all comes back to the phone being stuck on the "Galaxy Note II GT-N7105" screen and when I power it off, it switches back on and gets stuck on the screen again!
Can you help, please?

BUMP - This might be against the rules but I desperately need this phone and the KNOX warranty void flag has been triggered so that is out of the question. I've tried flashing "N7105XXUENC3" and it succeeded but just kept restarting and back to square one. It's a N7105 with H3G (Three) UK if that helps.

Try one thing go into download mode without pressing power button , only press home and volume down and see if it still goes into download mode.If yes then your power button is faulty,either it's pressed continuously so you'd need to loosen it out or worse power button needs to be replaced.

Hey, I've checked and it's not the power button.. The phone does go into "recharge mode" with the battery percentage indicator and download mode but other than that it is just rebooting.
Hi, i was reading what you posted on how to fix it but my phone is still stuck on the logo. it randomly turned off and wont turn back on since. the only thing it shows is the logo and if it does disapear its for a split second where it turns pitch black and then comes back to the logo. Please help!
Will the phone stay on in download mode?
I wanted to root my Note10+.
It is a Note10+ SM-N975F. It is not locked to any carrier.
I enabled dev options, unlocked OEM, booted into download mode, and unlocked the bootloader. This was apparently successful.
I then tried to use Odin to flash stock rom. Odin fails at "system.img". I tried to flash with Chimera Tool. Chimera also fails at "system.img". I tried different stock roms (older versions etc.), the error perists. I tried on a different computer, the error persists.
So I decided to flash a patched TWRP, then I was gonna flash ROM throught TWRP.
I flashed TWRP and that leads me to now. My phone is effectively dead:
If I plug it in or turn it on, it boots to the "Samsung Galaxy Note10+" screen, it will tell me to press power to confirm that I understand that the phone's security has been bypassed/non-official software is installed. Then it will hang forever on the "Samsung Galaxy Note10+" screen.
There doesn't seem to be anyway to turn it off other than letting the battery drain, but even with the battery drained, if I plug it in, it will just boot to the "Samsung Galaxy Note10+" screen.
If I hold power + volume down, it will reset back into the "Samsung Galaxy Note10+" screen.
Whether it's on or off, power + volume up appears to do nothing
Any ideas? If I can get into download/recovery mode it should be fixable... But I can't even get there at this point!
Try different Odin.
Holding the power button for more than 10 seconds should always shut down.
Im happy to help if you are struggling?
Had the same bootloop symptoms, fixed!
i had the same bootloop when trying to update to beta android 10, let your phone drain completely, hold volume up and down at the same time, connect a usb cable and it should turn on to a download mode screen, flash latest rom (BL+AP+CSC+CP) and you re all set
Yep - solved in line with the above:
I let it it drain, then held vol up and down and plugged into computer - got into download mode recognised by Odin!
Hello,
I have left my Sm-p605 power off for a while so when i tried to power it on nothing happened (flat battery I assume)
So I plugged it on the charger and this is what happen now:
- When plugged on the charger after few seconds I can see the battery sign (with the flash in the middle) then after few seconds I get the screen :
Samsung Galaxy note 1 2014 edition for about ten seconds then black screen and after a short while Samsung ...... screen.
- This scenario is obtained without any pres on any key ! looks like it start booting by it self.
- During the boot loop if I press Vol + the next boot will be in recovery but again boot loop
- During the boot loop if I press Vol - I get to the download screen and there no boot loop ! I have to do a long press on the power button to exit !
- If tablet not plugged on the charger: dead !
I thought that the battery was dead so I replaced it : same with the new battery !
As I can access download mode I was thinking to flash the ROM but there is no way as the USB port is busy with the charger and if I disconnect the charger the scren goes black.
I have tried a lot of tips found on the net but so fa no success !
What looks strange to me is the fact that the tablet seems to start by it self without the need of pressing the power switch !
But this switch looks OK as it works to exit the download mode !
Anybody has an idea of what could be done to get out of this situation ? Any idea will be welcome.
Thanks in advance !
Hello,
I have exactly the same problems with this model (SM-P605). I've tried several ROMS via different versions of ODIN and also with PIT-file, repartion etc. My tablet stucks always in the boot loop and I cannot enter the recovery menu. Also I soldered wires and power the tablet from an external power supply but still no luck.
Few people have managed to fix the problem but I think they had a WIFI model and not the LTE version like mine.
Is there anybody out there who could solve this problem with the SM-P605?
Kind regards
Franz

Just saw this.
As you can flash I'd try flahing latest multiple part stock and if that works I'd start from scratch.
Didn't say if you tried that.
