Can not boot into recovery at all. - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

Hello all- I have not been able to boot into recovery on my Note 10+ for 2 days now, I have even gone as far as re-installing firmware with Odin and I can not get into recovery under any circumstance, it's almost as it's been wiped from the phone.
Can not do it with adb, volume up and bixby either.
Is there a way to force it somehow ?
Cheers for any help, LL-

[Q] Galaxy Nexus won't boot up! Restarting after google logo!

Hello to all
I have Samsung Galaxy Nexus 4.2.1 stock and unlocked.
It worked perfectly to two years! From yesterday i have problem with it! My GN won't boot anymore, I can see just google and X (nexus) logo after that GN restart itself! This is repeated without stopping until I put out battery.
I have tried to clear cache, wipe data/factory reset in Recovery Mode but problem has continued!
I have unlocked bootloader and update to android 4.3 stock (non rooted) through ADB (google SDK), updated successfully but when phone has reboot problem has continued, GN restart non-stop!
In Fastboot mode/Recovery Mode phone it never restarted! I have left in this mode with hours to try if restarted but no It works without any problems in this mode! It restart only when phone boot up!
Can this problem to be hardware failure or not?!
Can anyone help me? What can i do to boot my GN again?
I hope in your your support

Don't panic, this problem is called bootloop and it's normal. Just download factory images from here and flash them by using this awesome guide by efrant!!
Also bookmark this link for future reference.

started having the same problem yesterday after 6 months of stability on a custom 4.3 rom.
oem lock then unlock to format, nothing, tried various methods of flashing back to stock via ADB with mixed results, normally more boot looping with it occasionally booting into a rom for ~5 seconds. so SOMETHING is working.
I tried Efrant's method about an hour ago, but its been sitting at the google logo since, I'm at a lost, I'm no stranger to boot loops when installing borked roms but this is the strangest problem I have ever had with an android device.
should I just chock it up to hardware failure?
Mostly yours USERDATA partition is corrupted.
Use FASTBOOT to reflash the USERDATA IMG and it should do the trick.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
did a total stock reflash again, got to the setup screen before it rebooted after ~15 seconds, bootlooping again. flashed the userdata img with a few different ones.
I'm trying to read my logcat but when I run the ADB command in clockwork It finds nothing.
I've done all steps by this awesome guide by efrant! But same problem here
I've tried to install 4.2.2 stock, 4.3 stock, all comands works but in the end when i press fastboot reboot my nexus it's in bootloop again restart restart and restart
Any other solutions :crying::crying::crying:
I've waited about 30 minutes after restarting non-stop, my GN boot to system i saw home screen of android but after 5 sec restarted again :crying:
I'm getting into my system once every 10 or so reboots. managed to turn off wifi in case that was the problem but still boot looping. I'm inclined to think it might be hardware related as I started having trouble in the middle of a text after several months of rom stability.

Interesting Bootloop

Whether I try to turn my phone on or boot into recovery mode I get a strange bootloop. It goes between the Samsung Galaxy Note2 logo and the custom recovery in this case clockwork mod recovery screens. Never saw this before and Google isn't helping. If anyone knows what's going on any help is appreciated because as of now my phone is completely unusable.
I already tried switching custom recovery via Odin but the same thing happens it bootloops between the Samsung Galaxy Note2 logo and the new custom recovery start up screen. Really weird.
I am able to get into download mode.
Again any advice would be greatly apprecaited
Update: Attempted to Odin back to stock ROM and according to Odin it passed but now stuck in stock bootloop and still unable to get into recovery mode

Hard bricked GT-P5200 (can still access download mode)

Hey guys
A friend of mine was flashing his Galaxy Note 3 GT-P5200 and it suddenly froze, then it restarted.
Now at every restart, it's stuck in a recovery loop.
I can still access donwload mode, and I've tried flashing several firmwares with Odin but it still reboots directly to the recovery mode and restarts.
I've tried flashing different recoveries, but it still reboots every time.
Is it hard bricked ?
If it is, what are the solutions ?
Thank you

If it stays in recovery mode long enough to perform a cache wipe, try that. Then a full data wipe/factory reset. If you can't get that to work, then I have no other ideas. You did flash a full firmware package in Odin, correct?

Unfortunately it doesn't stay on the recovery mode even half a second.
It restarts right away.
And yeah, I've flashed the correct files again and again but the problem persists.
I guess it just went to electronics heaven ...

How to fix blocked boot recovery samsung?

Hello guys,
A few months ago, I rooted my phone using kingroot. After a few weeks, i tried to install TWRP custom recover to unlock bootloader. I accidently downloaded a wrong version of it and flashed it using flashify app, after which i booted into recovery to check the new recover mode. But, something awkward happened. THE BOOT MODE DIDN'T OPEN AND THE SCREEN GOT STUCK AT "Booting into recovery". I read on the internet and realised that my device has got soft-bricked. Also, phone wasn't rebooting. So, i found a solution atleast start my phone. I took out my battery, pressed the buttons for download mode and then placed the battery back in and pressed the buttons for download mode and somewhow rebooted my phone (i read about this technique in xda forums). Now, although my phone works but i cannot access the recovery mode as it has got soft-bricked. Thus, i cannot perform a hard reset as it gets caught in that "recovery booting stuck cycle". So, can anyone tell me how to fix this? PLS QUICKLY. aLSO, i don't know much about ADB, so pls explain that too as my friend suggested me to use ADB to fix softbrick but im not sure!!

Stuck on boot logo after flashing (the wrong thing...)

Hello!
Today I started to install TWRP and flash RR. After a few problems with Odin, I successfully installed TWRP 3.2.3 on my phone.
I have tried many times to install RR because each tutorial said different ways and I still do not have much knowledge about that.
3 hours ago I tried to install RR for the x time and tried to install from zip folder RR the boot.img file. But I did not select it as boot but as recovery.... After that I rebooted. And since then the phone gets stuck at the boot logo.
I cant't enter the download or recover mode. Can only restart it by holding down all buttons or the power and volume down.
I know that it was not the best idea. My phone is also 3 years old now. And that's why I'm thinking about buying a new one.
My new one would otherwise be the Samsung Galaxy A21s.
