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).
Hi guys,
I just unlocked my phone and tried entering recovery mode, but it won't work, it just boots normal.
Pressing 3 sec VolDown + Power
Pressing VolDown, then VolUp.
Android Logo appears and after a few seconds phone boots just normal.
Tried it now a thousand times.
Any suggestions?

That is not helpful at all. I know how to boot to boot menu. I cannot enter recovery mode!

Ohhh srry flash stock recovery
I have a slightly different problem, I try to get into Recovery but in Recovery no options show up at all, all I see is the Android robot laying down with the '!' mark, with no options, sometimes it also says 'No command' with the Android.
Boot menu before you select Recovery works fine. (I'm completely stock)

Similar issue here: I unloacked the bootloader, and can't enter recovery mode of the stock Motorola recovery. Recovery mode stops with same picture as described above, robot lying on it's back. Does Motorola prevent loading the stock recovery when the phone is unlocked? I did not try to enter recovery with locked phone by the way, so can't tell if stock recovery didn't work in the first place.
Hi
That's the correct behaviour. Press volume UP+power, release power then volume UP, that v then shows the menu in recovery
Sent from my XT1068 using XDA Free mobile app
Finally I found correct way to do that
To be clear I will start from beginning
1. Power off device
2. Press Volume DOWN + Power buttons for 3 to 5 sec then release Volume DOWN and then Power
3. Now select Recovery. Android with /!\ will be shown.
[Lollipop]
4. Press Power and while pressing it tap Volume Up
[KitKat]
4. Press Volume UP for 5 sec while pressing Volume UP press Power button.
(don't release Volume UP before pressing Power)
You are now in stock Recovery

Thanks, for the explanation! Only remaining odd thing: my device reboots to system OS instead of recovery when selecting recovery in the bootloader. I'm only able to go into recovery by:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery
I have the same exact problem where I could not go to recovery mode.
When in fastboot screen, I select Recovery by pressing volume up button and instead of phone going to recovery mode, my phone restarts to lands to lock screen.
When you say that you are able to go to recovery by -
Code:
fastboot boot recovery
What does it mean?
Which directory I have to be in to execute this command?

My moto g is having the same problem, let me try the method you mentioned down here

It is really odd though that you have to follow steps which are not mentioned in fastboot mode to get to the recovery mode.

Press volume up for 10 seconds and then just tap power button once and release both
My phone won't go past the android with ! in a triangle. I have tried pressing the up button for 15 secs and then the power button but nothing happens.
I have a Consumer Cellular XT1064 with unlocked bootloader which I flashed to retail Rom. Then I was able to go to stock recovery normally with pressing up 15sec and power, and manually flash the 5.0 OTA update. Now a few weeks later when I want to flash the second OTA update, I can't go into recovery.
Any help please.

I've been having this issue too. Can someone post the recovery.img for the latest stock recovery? I want to try and flash it and see if I can get into recovery then.
The key combination to enter recovery at the distressed android screen has changed for Lollipop!
Hold the power button for a few secs and tap the up key!
Hit thanks if this helped

Worked on the first attempt. This is the correct key combination in the Android 5.0 build.
I rooted my phone yesterday, it will load the fastboot menu but if i select any option(like recovery or normal boot) the phone will simply power off, does anyone have any idea whats going on? other than that the phone is fine. Because of this I can't boot into recovery.
PS. i rebooted once and found the CFQtest app in the app drawer after a failed attempt to reboot into recovery via the fastboot menu, however in panic I didn't let it complete the test and switched off the phone.

How you select recovery?
(Vol - for scrolling and for selecting vol +)
Thank you, Solved.

yes, vol- for scroll and vol+ for selecting, that's what I did but turns out that the problem was with the improperly unlocked bootloader. I had unlocked the bootloader via the autoroot for windows and I remember an error screen appearing once. So i relocked and manually unlocked the bootloader. its all working fine now.
As a newbie hoping to root my P10, I have just entered a magical world that is confusing to me. After reading many posts about installing TWRP on the P10, I have no success running TWRP: all I get is the stock EMUI recovery.
Am I missing a secret maneuver?
This is what I did:
1. Unlocked
2. Powered Off and On
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-vtr.img
3. Power Off
4. Try to Power On with Power + either Vol Up or Vol Down for a few seconds
Each time, I get EMUI Recovery instead of TWRP.
Would love some insights on that. Huge thanks in advance for any gentle guidance you can give.
Try to unplug the usb before you boot into recovery.
This should work.
To get root use the magisk tutorial. It's the safest method and you can hide it from apps.
Thank you for your advice, @Hamburg.
Oddly, the device still boots to EMUI Recovery instead of TWRP.
Same when I use
fastboot flash recovery twrp_3.1.1_fromfuture.img
First there is a screen that says that the device is unsafe because it has been unlocked, and to press the Up Volume for three seconds to enter recovery. That's when it boots into EMUI Recovery.
Shortcut combination is tricky to enter recovery, it usually require several attempts to get it right. With these devices, after logo, it is vol down + power again if I do not remember wrong (not just volume). Check the button combination again, just I case
Don't press the volume down button when the bootloader screen tells it.
Start the phone with this instructions:
Press and hold the power button until the phone vibrates, press and hold volume down and release the power button.
Hold the volume button until twrp shows up.
The Bootloader screen will also be present but will show you something linke "booting recovery" instantly.
If you get to the UI you can also boot into TWRP with the ADB and Fastboot Tools "adb reboot recovery".
I flashed TWRP 3.1.0 and it worked fine.
Maybe you can also start the recovery image from Fastboot directly by "fastboot boot recovery [VariableNameofTWRP].IMG"
Thank You!!!
Thank you so much @Jannomag and @ChipCollector !
Both of your instructions work (on my phone with Volume Up instead of Down).
In case someone else is reading, here are the full details to load TWRP on this particular phone.
1. Unlock
- get unlock code from https://www.emui.com/en/plugin/unlock/detail
- adb reboot bootloader
- fastboot oem unlock UNLOCK_CODE_FROM_THIS_URL
2. Install TWRP
- Remove cable, reboot, plug in
- adb reboot bootloader
- fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-vtr.img
( substitute your image name, e.g. twrp_3.1.1_fromfuture.img )
3. Run TWRP
Unplug, power off, then EITHER
- Remove cable
- First Option:
--- reboot, plug in
--- adb reboot recovery
- Second Option:
--- press Power until the phone vibrates
--- immediately press Volume Up and hold, quickly release power, keep holding Volume Up until the TWRP screen appears.
Now I'm at the scary place where I have to do make the right choice and not brick this thing.
The question is answered, so I will ask my next question in a different post.
Huge thanks!!! :good:
Hi guys, who has a working link for a P10 (Emui 9) TWRP image?
Thank you in advance
Moin,
My phone was one day suddenly unable to boot into system nor Recovery, but could still enter fastboot.
Took me a while to figure out that USB Hubs let flash attempts fail too. (you can watch the drama in my older posts)
Now i was able to flash System back into a workable state and it looks like that recovery is also successful flashed.
BUT...i can enter recovery only ONCE per Vol - and Power on Button.
i have NO OTHER WAY to enter Recovery at all. i have no reboot option in system (LOS 18.1).
In fastboot/adb command and after one succsesfull reboot per keys, it always stuck after the Sony logo into a black screen. i then have to restart it into system with Vol+ and Power (one vibration) or shut down with vol+ and power for 6 seconds (three vibration) to get it either into fastboot (Vol+ and USB connect) or system again. then i have to flash it again to get into TWRP once. i tryed the latest twrp version (3.7.0) and one older version (3.3.1) that had once worked until the phone broke.
Any idea what is going wrong here. i have already try to completly wipe everything from the phone and try to fix SEL Linux in twrp. nothing seems to work. Did i miss something?
/€: Now it is again in the full broken state. recovery nor System won't boot anymore and end in a black screen.
/€²: Found the Problem: my lilca zip was polluted with altered files i forgot about.
