S8 won't shutdown and won't go into recovery mode

I can boot my Samsung S8 to Safe Mode, but nothing else.

  • VOLUME UP + BIXBY + POWER (release all at Samsung screen) => boot in to safe mode
  • From Safe Mode: RESTART => phone powers down but enters Android Warning screen; buttons are unresponsive
  • From Safe Mode: POWER OFF => phone does not fully power off, but instead goes to Android Warning screen; buttons are unresponsive
  • From Android Warning screen: VOLUME UP + BIXBY + POWER (hold through Samsung startup, waiting for Android logo) => loop of restarting to Samsung screen, then restart

The only thing I can do is get to safe mode. I tried to let the battery completely drain to power off, but once it’s dead and gets plugged back in, it goes back to the Warning screen loop. Help!

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?
