Dear all,
I was on beyond 5.3 with twrp 3.3.1.7 and I wanted to update everything. Magisk, root etc was working fine.
I downloaded the patched twrp file from the beyond telegram chat and flashed it as image into the recovery partition.
The installation was finished in 2 seconds, but stupid me chose to power off instead of rebooting the recovery.
So I tried to enter recovery using the button combo but nothing happened and I was stuck with the samsung logo.
The current status is that my phone only shows the samsung logo.
Holding the power button for a minute doesn't do anything.
Pressing the button combo for recovery mode doesn't do anything.
Pressing the button combo for dl mode makes the phone reboot. It vibrates for a sec, then the samsung logo shows again.
If I keep pressing all 3 buttons the phone keeps on rebooting and vibrating each time, but dl mode never appears. If I let go of the power button the logo stays and again, nothing happens.
So basically I can't enter dl mode nor reboot.
Should I let it run dry and try again or just throw out of the window immediately? :crying:
I let the battery drain over night. Phone was finally off.
So when I plug it in, the Samsung Logo appears and doesn't change. It just stays like that forever until the battery drains.
Pressing the power button doesn't do anything, no matter how long. It doesn't reboot nor does the logo disappear.
Pressing vol+, bixby and power again does nothing.
Vol-, bixby and power makes the phone reboot. The screen turns black, the phone vibrates shortly, the logo reappears. If I keep pressing the buttons the phone reboots again, and again, and again, mever reaching download mode.
If I let go of the power button and keep pressing vol- and bixby the phone stays black and won't even show the logo. Nothing happens. If I let go of either of the two buttons the logo appears again.
It won't boot, won't go into recovery or go into dl mode.
I'm doing all this while it's plugged into the usb port of my pc, and it doesn't get recognized. Samsung 300k tool doesn't recognize it either.
Now I know the meaning of "bricked" lmao.
Does anyone know how to possibly fix this?
Pressing only the power button for a minute literally does nothing. Like hell, how is that even possible?
You can try this to go to download mode:
Vol down + bixby + usb cable connect to PC
It's advisable to charge battery first before flashing firmware.

I tried that for like a thousand times already but now it chose to magically work somehow.
I think I peed myself a little when that ugly turquoise screen appeared and I screamed from sheer happyness.
THANK you!!!
The problem that doesn't stop giving lmao.
Got into DL mode, got odin to start, but after like 10 seconds my phone dies and odin fails.
Now I cant get into DL mode, but rather only the "an error occurred while updating the device software. use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch pc software."
Could it be the battery that simply dies?

Yes most probably a discharged battery. Hopefully you can go to DL mode again after charging your phone.
hello,
I've and S10e and because an important app to me I need to go back to android 9 where it works.
I've read a lot info about downgrade, but no one says ROOT/UNBRICK.
Can someone inform if there is a way of downgrade without ROOT (maintaining the warranty).
thanks in advance
P.S.: Maybe too naive question, sorry for that

Hi
I have just tried to update to 2.2, i updated Kies first, connected my phone, it came back saying update available, fully charged battery, all seemed to go ok, phone rebooted, but when coming back up I get the logo, and the start up music, then it vibrates a bit the keys on bottom left and right are lit up, screen black and doesn't seem to do anything.
I have removed battery, have tried 3 button restore (no effect) it just keeps vibrating every min or so.
holding the power button restarts it, thats about all i can get it to do.
Have I ruined the phone?? please help.

First question... Did you have a lagfix on the phone before you tried to update it?
Second question... If you answered yes to question one... Did you remove / disable the lagfix before you flashed through Kies?
i had lag fix and was rooted, i plugged it in to laptop and it was recognised and said update 2.2 available, so i thought that was ok.
Now it is as i describe as above, i get battery logo if i plug into laptop, bottom left and right keys are lit but don't do anything, screen is black and vibrates every couple of minutes, if i hold power button get the GT galaxy s screen then the music, then the S galaxys screen which goes black with the two keys lit, if i press power button again it goes off and to the battery logo again.
Cannot get odin or kies to recognise phone plugged in, or get it into recovery or download mode

you didn't answer the question but I will assume that you were using a lagfix but did not disable it before you tried to update you phone.
try removing the battery for a few minutes and try going to download mode (hold vol down + home + power)
Go into recovery mode (vol up + home + power 'till screen switches on) and select the delete data/cache (?) option with the volume keys, using the middle button to confirm. Your phone will work, but unfortunately, you'll loose all your app/settings =/
Should have un-lagfixed before updating :-s
let us know if Rawat's way worked for you.
I had disabled my lagfix too when updating to doc jk3 using cwm and same thing happened to me.
Only way i fixed it was to flash my phone's stock rom, jh2 2.1 using odin3 v1.3 and the firmware from samfirmware. (pda only, no pit, no repartition)
then i upgraded to froyo again and it worked.
Hey guys, I need some help...
Long story short, I wanted to restart my phone one day after a Market app wasn't working, and when I turned it back on, it would load the ATT screen, show the Galaxy S screen as well, but then the screen turns black and about every 15-20 seconds, there would be 1 vibrate, a pause, 2 consecutive vibrates, and this would continue to go on forever until I took out the battery or the phone died. I had 2.2 but cannot get into recovery mode or download mode, even with the 3 button combo. Am I screwed?
Thanks for your guys's help!

You probably need to build/buy a jig and use that to get to download mode. Otherwise, try this:
Take out battery
Plug in usb cable
Hold volume+ and volume-
Pop in battery
This should take you straight into download mode. You'll could try doing a factory reset while in download mode but you'll probably just have to flash a new ROM/Stock Image

I agree with this technique, although in my experience, you should hold down both volume buttons BEFORE plugging in the usb cable to your phone. It should take you right to download mode, and from there, I'm sure you know your way around. Best of luck.

Actually that particular order doesn't matter. It works both ways. All that matters is when the phone receives power (battery put it) it has the USB signal, the vol+ signal, and the vol- signal.
This is what happens:
1. battery out of phone and MicroSD and SIMcard also out of phone.
2. Put in battery.
3. Without pushing any button phone turns on and shows splash screen and in a split second second the cyanogenmod logo (it has CM7).
4. Phone turns off and restarts the cycle showing the splash screen etc.
Also it may show the little star insted of the splash screen and in a split second the battery and restarts. I've tried two batteries with and without charger.
I can enter download mode, stay there in a few second and then it restarts again.
Does anyone have a solution?
Or is it possible to make a backup? I have tried to enter recovery mode, but it is not possible.
Hm,
it could be that your power button is stuck and is always connecting. Do you notice a click when you press it?
Thanks for your answer. Yes I do hear a click.
The phone has been connected to the charger, it stil shows that star and restarts and the whole phone is hot. Can I make a backup of the phone? And flash via Download mode?
I have tried to enter download mode again, it enters, i connect it to PC with USB, Odin detects it but in a second the phone restarts and Odin says Added and then Removed!
What can I do? Is there any thing to do? :crying:
AW: URGENT: Splashscreen endless restart
Honestly I still think it's the power button. I did test it. When I restart the phone and keep my power button pressed it behaves exactly as you describe! I don't have the slightest idea how to help you with that. Sorry mate.
My phone suddenly restarted and stuck on Android One logo and not booting further. I've turned the phone off and started after few seconds and it was still stuck on Android one logo. Then I've tried to get into recovery mode by pressing Vol Up + Power but it was not working. Also it's not responding to the charger. No battery sign and nothing. It does not respond to power button many times. I've also tried to get into fastboot mode (Vol down + Power) and even it was not working. Please help!
It's not rooted and didn't try to flash/install custom ROM.

Take phone to discharge batttery and automatically turn off. Plug in to charger for few minutes and press and hold volume up,volume down and power for 2/3 minutes. He should be turn off and then you can go in to recovery.
Suffering the same problem.
I'm having the same problem. Exactly what you said. I didn't root my device or even attempt to do anything. I bought Nokia because they were purely stock and delivered some quality mobile phones. I've got only this phone as my daily driver. So tell me if you have got the issue fixed and how much did it cost and how long it took. It's been stuck with that 'android one' logo and a small message that reads 'Download mode' on top. I've tried everything. And what I'm worried about is, my phone's out of warranty and I'm a student. I hope you got it fixed for some reasonable cost. Please reply to me ASAP.
After i tried to solve another issue with a custom Rom and installed a TWRP for Hades Rom, my S10e doesn't start normal, download mode also doesn't work.
Only thing is, if I press Power + Bixby and Vol down, it vibrates and the Samsung logo appears shortly.
After that the PC (if USB is connected) shows the folders but display of the phone is still black.
Funnily i can tab on the phone screen and it vibrates on some areas, so I assume it is in TWRP but with a black display.
I'm completely stuck now, searched a few hours on google and XDA for a solution but nothing works.
Power and Vol down mages a restart, if USB is connected the folder appears after a fw seconds on the PC, Display still black. When i tab on the phone it vibrates but no display, so no idea what i'm doing.
Download mode or "visible" TWP doesn't work, tried also several button combinations, nothing works.
So, how can i get in download mode to do a reflash? I've no data on the phone so wiping is no problem. Any ideas?
Edit 1: It seems i could solve the issue by draining the battery completely and go into download mode afterwards, so - solved for now
Bump, having the same issue
Hold power and volume down to get out the black screen
