Yes. I believe the only way is with ADB. try holding the volume down button, then press power. see what happens.
Although the international version has a physical home button so that may be why it doesn't work.

As you flashed the european version you need to use the i9000 key combination: volume down (only) + power for recovery mode and volume down (only) + usb plugging for download mode

The button combo on the i900 roms is different. I am not on one so I am not sure what it is but if you use the search function you should find it

[Q] 3 Button Recovery Mode

Ok so here my problem hope someone can help. Samsung S.A has recently Sent out An update to 2.2.1 XWJS5 which was long awaited, anyways before my Kies update I had 3 button mode working via the odin method on 2.1 XWJM3 , now after the update to XWJS5 I cannot get the recovery mode to work when using the volume up , home key and power key combination. Download mode still works however when pressing volume down + Home Key + Power. I have re-flashed SBL with odin and still only download mode works any help ?
When the first screen pops up let go of the power button. Somehow it changed for me as well on 2.2.1. Download works as normal.

[Q] SGS stuck on Startscreen - yes i have used the search

Hello!
I am in deep s***t right now,
tried to flash the SGS of my friend and now i am stuck on the Galaxy S bootscreen.
Reflashing several Kernels via Odin didn't do any good...
I am not sure what to try next, as most CWM Recoveries i Tried seem to have problems mounting a partition called "E"
Any suggestions what to do?
Many thanks!
Do you have access to recovery or download mode by pressing either vol up + home + power or vol down + home + power ?

Galaxy S Plus no recovery mode

Hi!
I've just upgraded my Galaxy S Plus to the official 2.3.6 Gingerbread. Everything seems ok, maybe a bit slow though, I'd like to do a master reset but I can't be able to access the Recovery mode by pressing Volume Up and Power, Nothing happens. It just starts up normally.
I can't find anything regarding this matter.
Hopefully someone can help me.
Thanks :cyclops:
Odp: Galaxy S Plus no recovery mode
The correct combination to activate the recovery is VolUp+Home+Power.

Have you rooted the device?
You need to do this to get recovery - CWM

press volume up + power until you see samsung logo, wait a couple of seconds then release power and then volume up. you should see an android out of the box, press menu. you shuld be in recovery now. you don't need root to do this, and you can root your sgs+ from stock recovery (i have an sgs+)
it worked

Can't boot to recovery because of hardware control mode

Hello all, a friend of mine is having some trouble getting into recovery, holding the key combos then letting go of power and then pressing it again, blah blah blah but it always boots into hardware control mode with no options to boot into recovery, we've tried several key combos with varying speed and no matter what we do it goes into that mode. It seems that other people have had this problem.... the device is on stock 4.4 and is rooted and the freedom flex app with TWRP installed, booting into recovery from android works fine and recovery is booting properly from there, any help is greatly appreciated
thanks

All I have to do is hold down the power + volume down and it goes straight into recovery mode. Have you tried pressing and holding volume down+power until logo appears then press and hold again? The only other solution is using adb.

Press volume Down+power as long as you see the logo. Released both buttons and immediately press again..
If that's not working the after the logo press Volume Up or Volume up+volume down...
