This will discharge any left electricity from the capacitors and some internal components.
With the battery removed, press and hold the power button for at least 20 seconds. Take out the SIM card and your SD card if you have any. This will perform a “ simulated battery disconnect” – it’s the equivalent of physically disconnecting the battery. 
If that doesn’t work, press and hold Volume Down button + Power button for 10 -20 seconds. Note: If you have a Galaxy S6 or another device with a non-removable battery, press and hold the Power button for 15-20 seconds to force a reboot.
Take out the back case and remove the battery. Hold the power button until your device is turned off. If you’re having this issue on a Nexus, or the first method didn’t make your Samsung device boot up normally, let’s try forcing a restart and drain the capacitors before attempting to boot up again. Go through the following methods in order until you find a fix that will make the error go away. Now that we know the causes, let’s get to the fixing part. If the internal partition has become corrupted or some data in the EFS folder is missing, your device is programmed to boot straight into the error message we’ve talked about above. But it usually goes away without too much trouble.Ī more serious way to get into Download Mode is to mess up your device’s sensitive files so badly that it can’t successfully boot up anymore. If you mix the Volume Up button with Volume Down, instead of entering Recovery Mode, you’ll be taken to the Download Mode which will display the “Downloading…Do not turn off target”. If you got into Download Mode with the wrong key combination the fix is very simple, read below.Īnother common cause that will cause this message is a software glitch. On most Nexus and Samsung devices, the button combination for the Recovery Mode is Power button + Home button + Volume Up button. By far the biggest occurrence I’ve seen is users wanting to get into Recovery Mode and mixing the button combination. 
There are several ways that will lead you to this error message. If you have a rooted device with a custom ROM, you might encounter it on other brands. For the most part, it serves rooting purposes or is used for restoring a device to the stock version. Download Mode is part of Samsung’s exclusive way of flashing ( Odin), but it’s also used on some Nexus models.
This error message only occurs in Download Mode. Usually, it’s a sign that your device’s firmware has been tampered with, but that’s not the only cause. Most users report that their device unexpectedly rebooted into a black screen with the caption “Downloading…Do not turn off target”.Īt a first glance, it might look like the message will be gone after the phone downloads some files, but most of the time that’s not the case. Are you stuck in download mode? “Downloading.Do not turn off target!!” is an error message that appears mainly on Samsung and some Nexus devices.
