Stuck at boot screen - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Recently tried to flash a new bootloader and modem in my S7 Edge through Odin, but now the screen is stuck in the Powered By Android initial boot screen. I cannot turn it off by using the power button, the only thing that works is if I press the power button + volume down, however that does not take me to the Download Mode but instead just restarts the phone and back into the Powered By Android screen. Volume Up + Power does not seem to be working.
Am getting desperate now, please help!

Managed to fix it
What I did was keep holding volume down + menu button + power without letting go. It rebooted into the Powered by Android many times but after about 3-5 minutes of holding it straight it finally sent me to the download mode where I was able to install stock S7 Rom.

[Q] Recovery boot loop Help!!!

Hi,
I have a recovery bootloop and i cant get it into download mode nor can i restart into system.
I have taken the battery out for 24 hours and still when i switch it on it just boot loops in recovery
Please help! What can i do to fix it ?
Take battery out, put it back in but don't press power on.
Instead, press Vol Down + Power + Home buttons all at the same time until something comes up on screen, then press Vol Up, to go to download mode.

[Q] Bootloop on NC2

Okay Ive been searching around for solutions for my bootloop and most people are obviously saying odin back to mje. I was wondering how odin will recognize my phone if it keeps powering off and on. Yes I tried to hold the power home and volume up key. It boots up, vibrates twice, says recovery booting... then powers down, repeats. I removed the battery and that didnt help. Any thoughts, Im on beans stock nc2 odexed rom. I also tried the tutorial in thread about bootloops, I held down power home and volume down but nothing changes it still is trying to boot into recovery , then turns off and repeats.
-the whole reason this came about is when I was going to power down so I held the power button and then the custom 4 option power down menu came up and i accidentally clicked recovery when I meant to push power off, then this happened-
Use volume DOWN +home +power then when the menu comes up press volume up. Then you are in Odin mode. You said you are pressing volume UP + home + pwr. That is wrong.

You need to hold Power, Home and Volume Down to get into download mode to flash MJE with Odin.

Power down completely and then hold vol down, home and power. That boots you into download mode which you use to flash MJE with odin. If/when you get into download mode, it shouldn't reboot. If it does then you have other problems!

I cant manually power down because of this boot loop, so i removed the battery, as soon as my battery touches the metal prongs to connect, the phone boots up and tries to boot into recovery , when it restarted I tried what all of you said, power, home and volume DOWN and nothing happens
Make sure you have all three buttons pressed when you put in battery.

I accidentally installed AryaMod V6.2 S7 Edge ROM on my Note 3

Hello guys,
Can I somehow solve the problem of entering the Recovery Mode or I can throw the phone in the trash can ?

I've already tried that (Volume Up + Home Button + Power Button), but the phone doesn't respond on that. At the moment in the top left corner appears "Recovery Booting" and then immediately switch to Download Mode. Several times I took out the battery and wait a few mins but even that didn't help.

Stay in Download Mode and flash TWRP again by ODIN ==> https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxynote3internationalqualcomm.html
OR flash an original ROM from sammobile.
Thank you very much ! It works! Yay!

Hold power and volume down and when it blackscreens immediately hold power and home and volume down that'll get you to download

It WILL go into download mode sometimes it takes multiple tries. When I say multiple I mean more than 3 you must keep working the buttons.
Your phone isn't bricked

When I said multiple I'm not talking about 3 or 7 times I've had to keep working the buttons for a half hour a friend of mine two hours or more.
Hold Power button and volume down and immediately at black screen hold Power and home and Volume down
Keep working the buttons
Its very stubborn and frustrating

Is Android Keyboard Aosw(?) preinstall stock keyboard?
If yes then I'm afraid your device might be not a genuine S7 but a clone.
And that will answer why you can't enter recovery or download mode with this method.
Since stock keyboard on S7 is called "Samsung keyboard".

Be sure oem unlock and usb debugging is enabled, obviously no, you know that. Power on pc, run odin and connect the phone to the cable and try. already you tried?
your installed cyanogen on the phone?
never happened to me and it is very rare

I agree. Booting into odin is ridiculously easy.
At any time You can hold:
Home+vol down+ power
And from any kind of screen it will boot into ODIN mode.
So if that doesn't work then Your device is most probably just a clone.
Okay, this has happened to me as well. Pissed me off, best thing to tell you is. You have you phone, turn it off for a couple of seconds. Position your fingers in the Vol Down + Power and hold the middle down, try holding on the right side of the middle button. It should work, I would say if it doesn't. Once it has restarted, turn it off and give it a second and try again.
Is the phone connected to a charger or computer? I've had problems with multiple phones refusing to boot into recovery while charging.

Hi, I think your right, I bought this online saying its a version from South Korea. Do you know how we can fix it?or if you have other options that would fix it?
All android phones even clones have Android Recovery.
Try this:
Turn off Your phone and press and hold VOLUME UP and then Power, when Your phone turns on (boot logo) keep holding volume up but let go of power button.
If that doesn't work then hold volume down and do the same thing as above.
Now when You hopefully booted up recovery mode, use volume buttons to go down to factory reset, press power button to confirm and then wait until You'll see something like "Factory reset complete" .
Most clones have fastboot/mtk based bootloaders so holding volume button and power button without home button should work.

I just did that and what showed is the android robot icon lying down with a red exclamation point on it and stays there and does nothing...
That's good. Now You should press either one of volume buttons or power button (just a single short press) and recovery menu should show up. And there You should choose factory reset.

Phone stuck at bootloader exception

Hello, for some reason my phone got stuck in the bootloader exception. I know I could potentially fix this through odin but I have quite the problem. I use a chromebook! Also Odin is a windows app so I was wondering if there are any other options for me to try to fix my phone?
trying to get into recovery mode/download mode fails as well. Only thing I could do is turn it off briefly (volume down + menu + power) then it goes back into bootloader.
Cant send it in back cause I bought it from a different country. (will visit that country soon but I need to get this phone working for travel/communication purposes)
Are you sure you can't get into Download mode?
I had this problem and it was hard to fix, but after holding -Vol, Home, and Power, after about 8 reboots it worked and I fixed it with odin.
Hold, keep holding these buttons until Download Mode appears.

Power/home/volume up is the combination for recovery, not download. Try again with volume down.

edit: do i have to plug in my phone first with odin? or it should go to download mode without odin yet?
