Hello,
My "Volume Up" button is almost broken. So it is very hard for me to go into recovery mode.
Is there a way to reboot in recovery mode from download mode?

If you flash darkys rom you can access recovery and download mode by using the power button, like when you get the option to either power off or reboot. Don't know if thats any help but i said i'll truy.
Thanks for reply.
But if you can boot, you have adb access, and it is easy to reboot into recovery ("adb reboot recovery").
The problem is that I just "corrupt" my rom and I can't boot. My phone just loop over boot screen.
I can boot into "download mode" and flash with odin. But I would boot in recovery and flash with an "update.zip". That why I want to know if I can have an "adb" access or other access throught download mode (and reboot into recovery).

Bootloader mode: To access this mode, turn off the SGS, and then press VOL UP + HOME pressed while pressing Power. Then you will enter recovery mode.
In recovery mode you can wipe the system and you can flash a file named update.zip (if you have installed a such file in the root directory of the internal memory). These update.zip files are usually made to root or modify the SGS, and if you want to install a custom ROM, it might be necessary.
If you have installed another recovery image, the bootloader/recovery menu might have some extra features, i.e. nandroid backup and access to other settings.
Download mode: To access this mode, turn off the SGS, take out SIM and SD card, then press VOL DOWN + HOME pressed while pressing Power. Then you will enter recovery mode. Then the phone will say "downloading", and then you should connect the USB cable to a PC running the Odin firmware tool. Read more about Odin and firmwares on samfirmware DOT com

Hope this helps you.

Hi Sparkle1975, I've searched the forums and read many times what you have copied and pasted.
In your answer you say that Bootloader mode is Recovery Mode.
(Bootloader mode: To access this mode, turn off the SGS, and then press VOL UP + HOME pressed while pressing Power. Then you will enter recovery mode.)
Within the app Quickboot it offers the options of reboot, recovery, bootloader and power off. Recovery and Bootloader appear to be different options.

Just in case anyone else has the same problem as me:
For me VOL UP works, so I can get in to update mode, but VOL DOWN (download mode) does not work. If I enter update mode, then hold power until it reboots, quickly presses VOL DOWN+HOME (but not power) it enters download mode.
A few more steps, but it works.
Official swedish 2.3.3 firmware in mine.
Edit: This was tested a few times with the SIM and SD out. I haven't tried it with them in.
Hi!
i can't boot into recovery (the phone reboot and normal boot) and if i boot in download mode i can't flash anything with odin, it stops in "VerifyPlatform:V0, P0,R0."

And what have you pressed for coming there?
Here is described how to get in recovery. Have you tried that?

I'm also not get to recovery easily, I press DOWN+MENU+POWER but unlike the guides i need (after the phone reboot and i see the samsung galaxy logo) to press and release, press and release the POWER button and sometimes i got to the recovery and sometimes don't.
On 9001 you hold volume up, keep it pressed and switch on the device (press only 1 sec). After 5-7 sec you can release the volume button. If you have already CWM, you don't need to press any other button. If you still have stock recovery, then press menu button (not home!) only once when you see the box.

If you have a CWM is installed, and does not work - you can set a new Terminal_Emulator recovery.img, Tekt enter:
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13
After executing these commands will pop icon in a terminal window $
hi all!
i have a problem with my samsung galaxy next.
I'm not able anymore to enter in recovery mode and also to root it (i have also tried to root it via pc).
If i try to enter in recovery mode (vol up+home+power) the phone says "ramdump mode".
Another problem is that if i try to restore factory settings the phone reboot in recovery mode showing some error and it doesn't restore factory settings.
I can just reload stock rom via odin :crying:
I would change rom, with the stock one the battery draining is unbearable.
the problem with the recovery mode came after i came back to stock rom (i have tried mod rom).
Try vol down+home+power. It will work.
EDIT: Oops this is the download mode! As other guys telling Home+Power only.

Turn off your phone, Hold your Power and Home button at the same time, when the Samsung logo comes up, release the power button BUT keep holding your HOME button. Then go Wipe data/factory reset, it's the same thing.

You don't go into recovery by holding volup+home+power buttons. You go into recovery mode by holding only Home+Power buttons.

Is there a way to boot on Safe Mode on our device using key combos ? (like enter fastboot)
I've managed to boot Pi-Llama clean flash without bootloops using Safe Mode, but i have no idea how to do that again.

The only way I know is to hold the power button until the menu pops up (the device needs to be booted up for sure), then long-pressing the shutdown menu-button. A message will appear to ask you, if you want to boot in safe mode.
I just found the combo by trial and error
Boot up your device while holding down Vol+ and Vol-.
Edit: Ok, after a bit of testing, the only button that activates safe mode is Vol-. But in order to not enter fastboot, you would need to power on -> wait 2 secs after the bootup-vibration and then hold down Vol-.
Hi,
I have unlocked bootloader for Redmi 4X. I want to run TWRP onetime to install magisk. When i give "fastboot boot recovery.img", it doesn't boot TWRP. I tried Volume Up+Power button to enter recovery mode. But, no luck. Please help me.
You are using wrong command. use -> adb reboot recovery and then it will boot into recovery mode.
i hope you have TWRP installed already.
if you are on MIUI then shut down your device and press volume up and power button.
next you'll be directed to menu, tap on recovery (options maybe in chinese language but do not worry recovery is written in english language) tap on it.
you'll see two options to choose from, choose blue one and it'll boot in recovery mode.
if you are using custom ROM then shut down your device and press and hold all three buttons together (volume up + volume down + power button) your device will boot into recovery mode.
