Help with bricked phone - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Tried to uninstall root, first ended up stuck on logo reboots, could turn on download and recovery mode. I factory reset it, and now it won't leave download mode, indicating i have used smartswitch when i haven't whenever i try to leave download mode. So i can now only access download mode, see the error page and it won't turn off no matter what combination of power buttons i hold with the volume keys and home button. Any solution for this? Ill be trying to flash the stock rom later when it downloads but I was hoping for any alternative for now in case it fails

Well, got tired... so...
Assigned myself a password lock to log into my phone and forgot it. (I have children)
To resolve me locking myself out of my machine...
I re-entered download mode. Flashed back to stock. Now I can enter Download mode, but not recovery mode to re-root, as going stock got rid of superuser, etc...
SO how do I get back into recovery mode.
nevermind.
I used thismethod and resolved the problem. Thanks
Recovery Mode:
With the phone powered off
UnPlug the USB cable.
Turn the phone on it’s side and use both thumbs to hold (left thumb) Vol Up and (right thumb) Vol Down
Press and hold the power button with your right index finger til you see "Virbant" release the power button and it should be on the recovery screen.

Stuck on boot screen...can't get to download mode

I tried to do a nandroid backup and it errored out and I'm stuck on the Vibrant boot screen. I've tried to get back into download mode to no avail. Adb isn't showing the phone so I can't reboot to download mode that way and the vol +/- methods aren't working.
What should I do to get into download mode to Odin back to stock?
I was able to get a frozen spinning logo when the phone was plugged into the usb. After trying to get into download mode a ton of times using the volume up and power button method it finally went and I used Odin to get back into stock.

I need some assistance

Hello, I'm new to installing custom ROMs and rooting a galaxy player 5.0. Currently, my Galaxy Player refuses to go on, after I rooted it, and installed a custom ROM. I used the clockwork mod and deleted some data, which I think is the cause of the problem. My galaxy player just goes in a loop whenever it is plugged up into a computer, and when it is not, it won't turn on, nor go into recovery mode. By the slim chance that I actually get it to turn on, if I unplug it from my computer it will automatically shut off. Can I get some help please?
You should try to keep vol down pressed when turning on your device or, if you can't, try holding the vol down in between the loops. If you manage to do that, plug the player to your pc and using odin, flash a stock rom. I had bootloop issues several times during rom changes and I managed to solve them getting the right tempo in between the loops and holding vol up or down to enter cwm mode or download mode.
try leaving it plugged in for a while, if its shutting off as soon as its unplugged the battery may be drained, after giving it time to charge do as the previous post mentioned and press power and volume down to try to get it into download mode from there you can reflash back to STOCK then on reboot go into recovery with the Volume up power button method and clear cache and wipe data/factory reset, you will lose any apps you have but should be able to get the device to reboot to factory and start over again from there.

Had the same thing happen a few days ago. Here's how I fixed it:
Hold power, home, and volume down for 5 seconds or so. As soon as you hold the three buttons, the phone will restart to TWRP once. That's normal, just keep holding it until the screen turns black. Once it does, you can keep holding to boot into download mode or let go to boot normally.
Hope it works and good luck!

how to boot into recovery mode through pc ?

Hi,
I own galaxy s3 i9000, currently on custom rom. My phone automatically rebooted and got stuck on bootloop. If I am able to enter in recovery mode, i can wipe cache(which may can help to get out of bootloop). But the problem is I am unable to enter into recovery mode because phone's volume up button is not working and my phone auto reboots every time after power off or reinserting battery. Is there any other way to clear cache or enter into recovery mode?
I dont want to flash my stock rom via odin (because i didnt backup my some important apps and msgs), this will be my last option.
sorry for my bad english
The normal way I get my phone into recovery mode from the PC is using ADB and the command: "adb reboot recovery". However, I bet this won't work in your case for one of several possible reasons: depending on when the bootloop occurs in the boot process, the phone may never reach a point where ADB is able to see your phone in the first place; if this is happening after a flashing a new custom ROM, then also it's unlikely that USB debugging is turned and the PC is not yet authorized to connect with it over ADB.
Another thought, could your power button be stuck down? I had a GS3 SCH-I535 several years ago and the power switch went bad on it, it would keep rebooting, shutting down randomly, or I'd be unable to turn on the screen. I had a switch replaced and it was fine after that. I don't think it's normal for the phone to automatically boot up when you reinsert the battery, that's why I bring that up. Maybe you can wiggle the power button a bit and try to unstick it if that's the case.
I tried to remove and stick back the power button again, but still it didnt worked. By the way fixing power button will not help me to get into recovery mode as my phone's volume up button is also not working, and recently I found out that I cant enter into download mode too because when I press respective buttons (volume down + home + power) for download mode, it gives warning msg to click 'volume up' buttton to enter into download mode or 'volume down' to reboot. Therefore again volume up button is required to enter into download mode too. So the only option remained for me is to visit service center and fix the volume up button.
