Hi everyone,
I flashed the newest ROM from cyanogenMod to my old galaxy s3. I did this with the phone still on. After flashing, the phone is stuck in a boot loop. The problem is that I have removed the power button completely because it was faulty(even from the board). Has anyone had the same problem, or has any ideas what to do?
Thanks

I never had the same problem but you can try to hold vol + and home to go in recovery mode, or vol - and home for download mode
I don't have a power button. What you're saying can be done if you press those buttons along with the power one.

buy a USB JIG is a device that automatically enter download mode
Short the power button connections, if you can get at them.

Help,
My phone just stuck at the Samsung Galaxy SII GT-19100G screen..
I can't enter CWM recovery mode or Download mode as well
When I press Volume Button UP + Home + Power, it will turn off the phone and never turn back on. When I release the Volume Button Up + Home, it turned back on and stuck at the screen again.
In fact I can't even power off my phone.. When I power off it, it will auto restart and stuck at the screen again..
Anybody.. please help
I'm only taking a wild stab in the dark here but my guess is you flashed firmware for the I9100 onto your I9100G device.
Best to download firmware for the "G" model and flash via download mode. If you have a jig it might come in handy.
Looks like you have some research to do. Good luck.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Yes, lucky I manage to flash it back to the original ROM.

For reference Vol Up + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Manual Mode, not turn it off. Vol Down + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Update Mode.

NO NO NO it puts the phone to RECOVERY MODE
not turn it off. Vol Down + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Update Mode
NO NO NO It puts the phone to DOWNLOAD MODE .

how did you solve the problem?

Guys if you want to keep you phone alive then FLASH ONLY ROMS THAT ARE FOR YOUR PHONE! DON'T RUSH STUDY FIRST!
I recently went to flash the UK 4.0.4 onto my US tab, but the device will not boot into recovery/download mode. Pressing the power button on the device while off does not immediately turn the device on but it does come on after a couple tries, but holding volume down does nothing. I'm currently stock unrooted rom. How can I fix this so that I can flash (or root) again?

I have the same problem. Can anyone help us, please?
Thanks!
Have your turned it fully off or are you starting from standby?
To boot into Recovery/Download modes you need to start with the tablet completely off. I find I also need to be holding the volume key before I press and hold the power button.
Hello, (Sorry for my bad English)
I have Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 not rooted and I have had it working fine for at least 7months now. Yesterday it suddenly off and keep restarting and not going into touch-wiz i am not familiar with android platform. I have tried to get into download mode (power + volume-down + menu button) and in recovery mode (power + volume-up + menu button) after getting into recovery mode android logo disappears quickly then restart and also getting into download mode phone shows the warning page i press the volume up button to get into download mode but phone restart.
I had removed the battery for one day and put it back and phone start auto without pressing the power button and it goes to start up Samsung galaxy logo then restart and keep restarting. Now, whenever i put the battery back phone start auto and keep restarting.
I need help what should i do?
Maybe power button got stuck?

It certainly sounds like the power button is shorted out, send for warranty repair.

this happened to me once. i removed the battery for a few minutes. then put it back and immediately entered the recovery mode. i hold the combo for a long time so that the samsung logo appears for 3 times and after the 3rd time, i released the combo and it entered the recovery mode. may/may not work for you. but worth trying? sounds funny but worked for me unexpectedly!!

Simply hold the button combination: power + home + volUp and the phone will restart in Recovery mode. Release just the power button as soon as the galaxy s2 logo appears but keep pressing home + VolUp

Hey there, I'm stuck in a boot loop in my samsung galaxy a21s with the bootloader warning and the press power key button showing.
I used magisk to flash a custom rom and used odin to add it to my device. I'm kinda a novice when it comes to rooting so any help to getting out of the boot loop will be appreciated.
It will not boot to recovery or the download mode either
Fixed it! I just had to press volume UP and DOWN along with power until it rebooted and then afterwards I pressed volume UP and POWER to get to the download mode.

Very good to know , and thank you for putting it as you solved
Hey @synnre,
I have the same problem with the phone. It also shows "fingerprint protection failed" in the top left corner on booting screen.
The button combination you mentioned is not working.
Do you have any other ideas?
Thankful for any help!
