j320fn safe mode stuck, but when i press vol down + home + power download mode is on - Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Guides, News, & Discussio

tried reflashing firmware didnt work, always turns on in safe mode, is there any way to disable it? root it and through commands of adb? or without rooting it? its a pain in ass, i opened it up the buttons clicks,it should work but noo.. volume key down is not working when i press in safe mode, only volume up is working. But when phone is off i can enter the menu which requires combination of volume down + home + pwr, so i assume volume down is registering as working, but not when i boot up os.so anyway to bypass safe mood? i could root it then adb, as loong as it doesnt need for google play access cause thats not possible
Tried reflashing all sofware including bl ap .. And so its still nothing,
My thoughts can i root it through kindgoroot and somehow edit the hardware buttons .conf file so it would not work at all and will bot be registered as pushed down?

When I press volume down key+ home key + power it still can go into downloader mode.
After 1 week, my phone auto download software upgarde and install to 4.1.2, but it cant cause cwm recovery mode disturb it. after that my camera no function at all. now i wanna try to go downloader mode again, but my phone volume up button also become no working at all to go downloader mode, but it working when the phone is on.

That's one hell of an unlucky upgrade. I don't know mine upgraded/rooted without problem. Can't you just return to stock once you're able to enter download mode?
Fail to understand the problem be specific with current problem .

First thing, and i don't pretend to be rude, write your question in the right way.
There are Forum Rules for all of US.
The second one, the download mode, is by pressing volume DOWN(not up)+HOME+POWER. The one you are choosing as far as i comprehend by you спасибоwords, leads totCWM (either stock or 3d party one).
The third, if you somehow managed to downgrade to ICS(4.0.4), just press OTA update
Cheers!

Actually when the phone boot on ICS 4.0.4 the volume up button is working and the volume down button is not working.
Ya, i know that the download mode is by pressing volume DOWN + HOME+POWER.
I can going to page WARNING!! a custom OS --------------- after need press Volume UP to continue and Volume DOWN to cancel, but the volume up and volume down button also not working.
Maybe is because my volume DOWN button problem, so make me headache.
I know that CWM (either stock or 3d party one). But i need it to wipe my factory reset after downgrade to 4.0.4 by Odin.

When it was JB 4.1.2, It will boot on SAFE Mode, However how many times i reboot , reboot by press back key or up volume button too.
I cant get off from SAFE mode.
At the moment, I try to downgrade to ICS 4.0.4 by Odin. I can going to download mode. after Odin pass, It stuck at the samsung logo.
I try to go to recovery mode by press VOLUME UP + HOME + POWER. I can go to recovery mode but the Volume DOWN not working and i cant go to wipe reset.
I going to download mode again and running PDA with CWM tar. I use CWM recovery mode to going to wipe reset by press VOLUME UP button only. Pls try to understand this.
Once I wipe reset, I can boot my phone on ICS 4.0.4. The moment all function ok, camera too. Just the Volume DOWN button not working.
I use it for a week, Software upgrade automatic but it failed. It stuck on CWM recovery mode. I try reboot again, the Volume UP button is WORKING, the camera not working. The big problem is I cant go to download mode again, just stuck a WARNING page, and my volume UP and DOWN also not working when i stuck a warning page.

I also have a button stucked, which you can easily see in the bootloader, as it scrolls automatically all the options. It is hw issue, but wanted to know if there is a kernel or someway in which I can disable the volume rocker entirely.
Is there anyway to disable safe boot when booted up into safe boot. I can install apps but they will not open due to the fact that I am in safe mode. Anything will be greatly appreciated.

[Q] Flashed new ROM without emptying cache. Can't enter recovery mode. HELP

Hi all
I have used search and I can find results that pertain to other devices but not specifically Galaxy S3 (I9300).
I've been trying to flash a new ROM onto my phone.
To do this:
- I rooted the phone using Odin and installed CF Root + CWM package.
- After doing this, I did the 3 button reset to enter Recovery mode. However, the phone always entered into Download Mode (Odin Mode / "Downloading... Do not turn off target !!"). I was never able to enter Recovery mode.
- So I couldn't use the Recovery mode to install the ROM.
- Instead, I used ROM Manager to do the install (Cyanogen 9) but I did this without clearing the cache.
The result:
- Now if I leave the phone to boot, it enters Cyanogen 9 boot screen but stuck here looping.
- if I try to enter recovery mode to clear the cache, it only gives me download screen.
I've tried a few different uploads to get recovery mode (and it successfully uploads the files I send using Odin) however the phone still enters download mode after the flash.
I'm worried about doing the wrong steps if I follow advice from other sub-forums relating to other devices.
Any tips?
Many thanks.

The three button reset is power button + Home + Volume up to enter into recovery..
You are going to Download mode because you are pressing Power button + Home + Volume down key ...
Read this guide
Recovery mode is volume up while pressing home and then power.
Try this first and see if you can access recovery, if not then flash Philz recovery via odin and then boot into it to clear data, cache etc.
Make sure you read and understand how to use both odin and recovery before you start, otherwise you can brick your phone.

Thanks MoonBlade.
Funnily, I was pressing power + home + volume down to get download mode.
I tried pressing power + home + volume up, which successfully got me into recovery mode.
Strangely reversed.
This seems to have resolved the problem.

remove pattern lock of Huawei G525 with out using OS

After two many pattern attempts, there is a sign in google account request to unlock the phone , I've tried all my google accounts it seems none of my accounts are synchronized .
one way to get away from this problem is reset factory - I need my data and I don't want to lose them - and another way is removing key pattern by root access. unfortunately my phone doesn't have root permission access and I started to root it using Adb and download mode.i followed some instructions that I found by googling the most nervous problem is the bootloader doesn't load (I tried to hold + volume key and power key or holding - volume key and power key or holding + and - volume keys with power , even back key with + volume key and power!! but again sign in page for unlocking pattern came! )
There is another problem too, if my bootloader is lock how can I found my product Id and other stuff that is needed .
I can see my device when I write adb devices in Cmd but I don't know usb debugging is on or off. my phone is Huawie G525-U00.

If you can boot to recovery mode with a button combination, do that and select factory data reset.

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.

Phone only boots to recovery mode, power button only doesnt work in recovery mode

Recently did factory reset for my i9100, downloaded reboot manager and rebooted into recovery from that app.
Now I can't get out of recovery mode since power button doesnt work in there and my middle button is broken too.
VolUp and VolDwn work everywhere and I can turn phone on by power button.
Any help? I'm on 2.2.3
edit/ i also rooted the phone recently with kingroot via pc
Hi @noupls,
To get out of recovery mode, you need to take out your phone battery.
Once your phone is off, reinsert the battery. Then go into download mode (press and hold volume down + power button + home).
Once in download mode, flash stock ROM via ODIN (if you've already download the firmware files).
Saber.
With broken buttons, you're pretty much stuffed whatever you do with the device. You NEED to get them repaired/replaced ASAP.
In recovery, there should be an option
REBOOT SYSTEM (NOW)
With your broken buttons I'm pretty sure that'll be the only thing that works.
