[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ole12:
Use smart switch to recover. Since you are locked in download mode, smart switch from samsung works. I did it yesterday, since odin failed whatever i tried to flash. And after you recover from smart switch, use odin again to flash newest firmware. But dont flash TWRP until is it updated.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Geekser:
I did try Smartswitch (before I found another fix) when when I attempted Smartswitch, when I connected my phone to my PC when it was in download mode, Smartswitch gave me an error that said it did not recognize the device I had connected.

I actually don't know how I did it - but I was able to eventually get the phonen to power down. When it had powered down completley - I booted in Download mode and this time I was able to flash the Older Firmware which ultimately fixed my problem. Thanks anyway for the tiip

It worked guys !! :D

Not at the first time... They give it to me fail again, but I do it fast again after they restart then it worked !!!

Thank you so much
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Geekser:
Glad to hear it - I had problems too - the only way I could get a successful flash in ODIN was to first turn off my phone completely - then boot up into Download mode and then flash in ODIN. the only problem was when the phone is in a bootloop or frozen on the Samsung Boot Screen - it is impossoible to turn of fthe phone. I got lucky. It finally powered off on it's own. Then I was able to flash in odin.

Glad you got it fixed too.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] AngelOfBlood:
I cannot turn it off too.

There's a trick...

All the time you enter in Download mode, and hit Start in Odin, the Odin says "FAIL" and the phone automatic reboot.

The trick is..

When in "Download mode" Start and at the same time press and hold "Vol Down + Bixby + Power".

Odin says FAIL and it will restart the phone automatic.

Press faster and hold "Vol Down + Bixby + Power" to go again to "Download mode".

Press Start in Odin and be prepared to press and hold at the same time "Vol UP + Bixby + Power".

Odin will start to transfer the files... and after that the phone reboot again faster, just press and hold one more time and faster "Vol UP + Bixby + Power".

TWRP will start !
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] paaDOW:
Hello everyone.

Yesterday while i was trying to install a new rom in my MI5 I bricked my phone.

I wiped the system, data, cache and kernel cache, then, as a mistake I rebooted my phone and all of a sudden it turned black and I couldn't go to the recovery or fastboot.

Now the phone is just black, no response trying to boot or go to recovery\fastboot. When I put to charger theres no LED LIGHT.

So I installed the adb drivers, installed MiFlash, and the computer recognized the phone as QualComm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 COM4.

Then I installed a fastboot rom into the phone using MiFlash, it said flash done and successful.

But, it keeps freezed in a black screen.

Should I just wait for a miracle or theres another option?

My PC still recognizes the phone as QualComm HS USB QDLoader 9008 COM 4.

Thanks in advance.

// EDIT (SOLVED)

Ok so now it booted with the fastboot ROM I flashed.

As I see, after the flash it takes hours to boot. I just went home, dropped the phone in the bed, then I pressed Vol up+Vol down and power button at the same time for two minutes and worked.

Recently i updated my Nexus 6p to 8.1 Stock Rom, and a small problem came up: If i flash PureZ kernel and then i flash Magisk, when i boot the phone i will recieve a message stating "System Process is not responding" with a "wait" and a "force close" option. Either way, i encounter many problems with com.android.phone. If i try to get into the mobile settings, Setting crashes. If i open settings and then try to access the mobile phone, com.android.phone crashes. I've tried by clean installing everything, without installing nothing else but the kernel and Magisk. still getting the same error. I've tried different solutions, but nothing worked. Is this a known bug? any fix?"

[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] adam79:
I was updating my phone to the Touch-IT 2.3 ROM. My computer crashed while I was flashing the ROM. Now I'm stuck on the T-Mobile Bootup screen. I tried Hard resting it by holding down the two soft keys and hitting the softrest button at the same time and it still gets stuck on the t-mobile screen. I can't flash to original RUU ROM because Active Sync won't recognize my phone. Is there anything I can do to get my phone back, or do I have to file an insurance claim?

Thanks.

Hold your camera button and press the reset keyhole, then flash your device with the RUU. It doesn't have to be "connected" to the active sync.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] kel29738:
I love everything about this phone, but i heard the screen looks fuzzy due to the pentile technology. Do you people think this screen looks fuzzy and horrible and do you guys recommend i get this phone or the Pixel XL?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] pankaj1244:
Hi i suggest you to go for oneplus 5 as it has snapdragon 835 in almost hakf price of the Samsung s8.

Yes there are issues with display (jelly effect ) but they will solve in software update and not every device has this issue you can return and ask for replacement if issue occurs in your phone.

Overall its upto you.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Jackhass:
I'd advise you to wait for the Pixel 2 to released, and then to take the Pixel XL.. It has a better camera, and imo it looks way better. However you won't have customization options of the 3T. The screen is fine on the 3T though so don't worry about that if you choose it.

Really it's up to you, both of them are better than 95% of other smartphones.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Sam Nakamura:
I bought a 3t just yesterday, new for 350 EU and it's a fantastic peace of hardware, coming from a OnePlus2...

It's still worth a buy, community support is incredible :) hardware itself is pretty much future-proof - I'm really happy!
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] kel29738:
Does the screen look fuzzy to you? like the text?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Sam Nakamura:
Nope, crisp and clear, perfectly full HD as should be...
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] kolembo:
The screen on the 3T is excellent.

Very deep blacks.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] cultofluna:
You should go for the OP5...you can find it on some warehouses in a better price that oneplus offers.....
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] kel29738:
I was thinking about the op5 but i heard it has some type of jelly effect to it.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] paras33:
go for it..u wont regret .
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] MrMeeseeks:
My screen looks great. And this phone is awesome. I would definitely recommend it.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
Text doesn't look fuzzy to me at all. Honestly, folks that complain about pentile (or this display in particular) must have much better eyes than I do. Everything looks sharp and vibrant to me.

The OP5 looks to be an incremental improvement, at best. And that jelly effect just looks annoying. If you can get the 3T for a significantly lower price (and I would think so) it's a much better deal.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] nano303:
A software update won't fix your UPSIDE down display ....MATE screen on 3T is perfect... Colors are absolutely spot on...rich deep Black's. After using QHD since the note 4 I can tell you the difference was almost not there !
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] fnudaniel83:
Yeah i never had an issues with the screen at all. You can get 3t for less than $400 right now (used) or if you have bigger budget, go with the pixel 2. LG G6 has an awesome deal on ebay right now, $400 brand new.
