My SGS can't do the 3 button recovery mode, but it can get to this screen using the Vol+/Home/Power method.
" FORCED UPLOAD by KEY PRESSING mode"
What is this mode and is it of any use ?
Bump, I need an answer on this too (I felt bumping this thread was better than creating a new one)
I've had the same problem. I've solve it by flashing it with odin3 and a spanish unlocked rom. If you do this use the 3 files, not only the pda. If you want i can give you the links to the files i've used.
Will you please, i need it to !
Thanks!
Please Link
I am having the same issue. I am on Samsung Galaxy S - GT-I9000T - apparently a latin america version.
I am from GUAM though.
We dont have a Guam regionalized ROM.
SO I need that link if u got it.
Need all three files, not just the PDA... please include link to csc and phone as well. TY
Hi guys,
unfortunately i have the same problem. Did someone figure out how to solve it??. I am just able to get to " FORCED UPLOAD by KEY PRESSING mode ". At that point my phone can connect with odin but somehow i cannot send any files....it stops at "Setup Connection" .
Any idea??
I have the same issue - phone doesn't boot as normal, I can't get to Download mode, not to Recovery mode. Only Upload mode is accessible.
Odin detects device in upload mode, but stucks at "analyzing files..." using Odin 1.0, or at "Settuping connection" using Odin 1.3
Please help
I found out how to get into recovery mode: Press VOL UP + VOL DOWN + HOME + POWER
BOWS

Some later phones dont have the 3 button mode automatically enabled. It sounds like its stuck in a boot loop. Try pulling the battery and see if that works. If not connect it to your desktop and see if the computer detects it. If it does you might get out the woods yet.
If it does go to this page and download the applicaton.
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile...t-samsung-galaxy-s-i9000-with-a-single-click/
Run the app and select root for 2.1. Hopefully it will reboot into Recovery mode. From there you should be able to apply the update.zip and reboot.
Good luck

Hi guys,
I have a samsung Vibrant, but I post this problem here, because I´m running a Galaxy S GT-19000 firmware on it. I have Gingerbread 2.3.3 and it works great, the only problem is that the Home Button doesent so I use Button Savior.
I got the phone to Recovery Mode <3e> by accident, and I cant exit because I dont have the ENTER option because the home button doesent work and the power button doesent work to enter either
The question is, can i exit this mode or enter download mode to flash the phone from ODIN
I cant do anything, please help and thanks in advance

Hi,
I bought galaxy ace a week ago... updated via the latest gingerbread 2.3.6. (official way). After few days of testing the phone I found out that it is quite slow therefore I decided to root it... there is the problem, I cannot enter to recovery menu (home + power), even to download menu (home + vol down + power), everytime I hold the above mentioned combination I got soft reset of the phone... no menu, no nothing. I could not find anything on the web.. Could you help me how to enter to recovery menu OR how to root to CM7.2. a CWM without entering to recovery menu.
I believe the recovery menu has been blocked with new gingerbread 2.3.6.
Thank you.
I don't think so (about the blocked recovery) ..u go on trying dude ..recovery mode is a bit tougher to get in stock rom ..u should get it on the 10th attempt ( at least) I believe ..btw there are rooting guides in this forum ...check them out

does it mean that i should hold power + home for 10 soft restarts?
I think so here's a tip press the home button first ..keep it pressed and then press the power button UNTILL THE SCREEN COMES ON...recovery mode is tougher to get in stock rom(well at least for me )..in cm7 its nothing ..

I tried to soft restart 10 times no luck... even with your tip...can anyone else help me please?
only odin can help you as if you are not able to get into any kind of recovery and want cwm then odin is the only path for you .. do backup contacts,sms if you want
all other things will be lost..
and if you don't want to loose things then choose to skip rooting and love what you have now
and 2.3.6 haven't blocked recovery btw as i am using it
I cant use ODIN as I cannot access to download menu (vol down + home + power). Anyone else who can me advice?
turn your phone off!
Now without pressing the power button!
Hold the center button and plug your charger!
Still does not work, any other solution?
Try this if you have root access then install ROM toolbox from the market and try going into recovery via the app

Dude read the post properly I guess he's on stock rom and the only way of rooting gingerbread is the update.zip method ( correct me if I'm wrong ) ..so there's no way he could have root access ...

Try adb
Adb reboot recovery

HE CANNOT ENTER RECOVERY MODE!
If you bought that way you should take it back show problem and let service take care of that!
Say that you were trying to do a factory reset when you found out that you coudn´t enter recovery mode!
I'm on stock ROM, just flashed this morning using ODIN. Even root will go then. To go into recovery press the home+power button till the phone turns on, leave the power button not the home button. You should land up in recovery. If that doesn't work then try using ADB. Go to adb with your phone normally on:
adb reboot recovery
but try flash recovery again
to enter fastboot:
adb reboot bootloader
And if You've worked with ODIN then download a new bootloader and flash it using ODIN.I think (not sure) the problem is with secondary bootloader (SBL).Put the phone into download mode using ADB:
adb reboot download
This will put your phone in download mode. Check Odin now, and if ID:COM has turned yellow, you’re good to gnce you’re satisfied, press the Start button on Odin. The flash will take couple of seconds, after which your phone will reboot automatically.
That’s it. This should fix your download and recovery mode 3-button combo issue. You can now apply any mods with the normal procedure.

You had mentioned updating to 2.3.6 in the official way? Kies or Service center? If Kies then did you get the download mode when it was updating? And No, Recovery is not blocked on 2.3.6

If even adb isn't working
I would take it in to the service center and tell them you can't access (stock)recovery

yeps it might be difficult first time,,,but never after i found it difficult,,,,
u need a working hand and usable brain....
hold the middle button and power button and as when u see the start screen just let go off the power button but still hold on middle button,,,
and u are in recovery mode...
same goes for download mode
keep hold on the vol down+middle button+power and then just let go off power button as u see the start screen(rather anything coming on screen )
enjoy

there is also an app in market ... quick boot or speed boot something like that...
and it DOESNT need root permission (long time no use so dont remember exactly but it should be)
u can try that
I had the same problem, but luckily I found this thread.
I can enter to recovery ONLY with adb reboot recovery command, pressing home button does nothing.
