Stuck at boot - can't boot to recovery - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

I just installed flashify and TWRP. When I let flashify reboot the phone, it stuck at the main boot logo. I can get it to briefly reboot with vol down + power, but it just hangs back at the same screen. I tried holding vol up + power + home during that brief period of time but nothing happened.
Any ideas?

I'm experiencing this too, I installed stock firmware and it is still doing this. I need to access recovery so I can clear cache and partition but this damn phone refuses to get to recovery mode. It'll go to download mode no problem, but trying to get to recovery mode is just impossible this way. Anybody???

stuck in boot logo

Hi a have a problem with my s3 i rooted my phone and after i installed cm10 but also i installed google aps and after i installed google apps i was stuck with erors an after that i tried to flash stock rom an now it reamins stuck and when i try to go to restore and to do whipe data it enters only in odin mode i tried ti take out the battery but same it enter in odin mode i flash with rom stock but same problem it remains in samsung logo and when i want to enter in recovery mode its stays like that in odin mode please help
If i am to understand correctly, you have used odin on your computer to flash your s3 back to the stock firmware and are now stuck at the samsung boot screen? When you flash back to stock, you need to always boot back into recovery and wipe data, wipe cache and reboot. Can you do this?
Recovery= volume up+ home+ power
Odin mode (download mode)= volume down+ home+ power
You need recovery mode
i cant go to recovery mode when i volume up+ home+ power its restarting and he dont do nothing he dont want to enter in recovery only in odin mode
Hold the 3 buttons until you see a little blue line of script in the top left corner of your screen. It happens quickly, so you need to be ready. When you see that, let go of all 3 buttons. It should not into recovery.
i tried but my dyspay turns black after relese buttons
Try the buttons for recovery, when you feel it vibrate let go of only the power button.
Also, the timing needed on releasing the buttons can be tricky. Just keep trying.
the same its say recovery botting and after that its dissapearing and the display its black
Reflash a stock Rom. Are you on att?
i am on rogers i flash with I747MVLDLK4_I747MOYADLK4_RWC and same problem i cant enter in recovery mode i will try one moe time
Try flashing the Rogers ics stock Rom.

[Q] Stuck in bootloop, cant access recovery mode.

Samsung Galaxy S3, SGH-I747M, Rogers
I used Odin to root my phone with root66_RWC_I747MVLDLK4.tar.md5 (followed instructions properly) about 8 times so far, wont boot past Samsung logo. Odin says the load was successful each time.
I read somewhere to try using Odin to load CF-SGS3-v5.5.v1.0.tar and booting into recovery mode, but it wont work either.
I have no idea what else to do, cant get to recovery mode, cant get past Samsung logo. (Living in Canada on Rogers)
Followup Edit: After loading the root66 through Odin again, I noticed I was booting to recovery incorrectly. Thank you xBeerdroiDx. "After you successfully flash, unplug your device and pulled he battery. Replace it and immediately press Vol up + home + power. When your device vibrates, release only the power button."
Did you flash a custom recovery?
You managed to root the phone. But you still have to flash a custom recovery to get it to boot up into recovery.
There is both CWM and TWRP files to flash thru Odin

Flash the dlk4 again. Untick auto reboot in ODIN. After you successfully flash, unplug your device and pulled he battery. Replace it and immediately press Vol up + home + power. When your device vibrates, release only the power button. Of that gets you into recovery mode, wipe data and cache. Reboot

DAMN I was doing the buttons wrong. Just mashed them all together and held until something happened, which took me to the normal boot. Thank you!

[Q] I have nandroid backup, but I can't access to it :/

Hi, I had a ROM and I wanted to change to another one that I had backed up so I deleted everything, went to the ROM, stayed there for an hour and then I pressed the power menu, clicked in reboot in recovery mode so I could go back to my other ROM and now... it doesn't stop rebooting into recovery. I tried taking the battery out and when it turns on, it's like if I'm holding the bottoms to go to recovery and once it passes the logo of the recovery, it restarts and does the same operation... I have TWRP recovery.
Any help is appreciated

Can't boot into recovery or fastboot after updating cyanogenmod 13

I'm running TWRP as a recovery.
Was running cm-13.0-20160210-NIGHTLY-m8, and updated using the OTA updater to cm-13.0-20160212-NIGHTLY-m8.zip. I have used this function before and had no issues.
Now all my phone wants to do is load the htc logo stating it's booting into recovery, then the screen goes black and illuminates every couple of seconds to a lighter shade of black. That's it.
Is there any way to force it into bootloader, so I can reflash the recovery?
I've tried holding power nothing happens.
I've tried holding power+volume up and it tries to boot into recovery and fails.
I've tried holding power+volume down and nothing happens.
I've tried holding power+volume up+volume down and it tries to boot into recovery and fails.
I've tried holding power+volume up, and changing to volume down just before it tries to reboot and it tries to boot into recovery and fails.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Fixed
My timing was off from holding all 3 buttons and switching at the right moment. What had happened was cyanogenmod had tried to update (and failed) it's own recovery. Do yourself a favor and disable it in dev settings, and use your regular recovery. Thanks.

Bricked

My 7-year old was playing a game on my wife's 3a XL tonight and it shut off. Now it's stuck in a bootloop.
I tried to boot into Recovery, but was greeted with the busted android screen. So I tried to boot into Rescue, with the same result. The bootloader is still locked, so all my attempts to flash factory images or boot into stock boot, I am greeted with the "not allowed" error.
Any ideas how I can recover this, or is it completely bricked?
If your bootloader is still locked you should be able to sideload the stock OTA. I've never heard of not being able to boot to stock recovery either. What method did you use to get there?

When you reach that screen on recovery you hold the power button and tap the vol + button and your options should show up. Just factory reset the device.

I tried to boot to TWRP but couldn't because the bootloader is locked. So I tried using ADB commands to sideload through Rescue, but it only said "error: closed".
Ended up doing a factory reset. (running now)
Haven't seen you in awhile
Well well.... thought i recognized that username. Good to see you again.

I cannot get my phone into fastboot or recovery. It stuck on the white google loading screen loop. I hold the power and volume down and it goes into fastboot but if I release the volume down button to scroll (while holding the power button) it will then go black and go back to the google white loading screen. If I hold down the volume down button and release the power button it will restart back to the fastboot page. If I release both then it will restart and go back to the white google screen. If I do power and volume up it goes to the "andriod no command" sreen then back to the googe white screen. In sum, is my phone recoverable?

When in fastboot, don't hold the power button down to scroll. Is your bootloader locked?

I'm guessing its locked because the phone is completely stock. When I get to fast boot I dont hold down the power button, but if I hit the volume up or down it instantly goes back to the google white screen and starts the loop over.

When on the bootloader screen can you fastboot a full image to the phone?
Said another way, try to download the full Google image.. not the ota... Setup a computer with fastboot and driver's boot the phone into bootloader mode and try to run the flashall.bat

Try-Once in bootloader scroll to recovery and press power button. When you see Android on his side hold power button and press volume up button. You should now be in stock recovery. From there you can adb or factory reset.
Edit- to get to bootloader power off phone then hold power and volume down buttons at the same time.
