Exit recovery mode - home button not working

On my I9000 - Andrid 2.1 - home button not working, that I bought it from a friend. I was curious and I used AndroidSDK and went into recovery mode. Now I can not get out. No way. I took out the battery but nothing. They can move across the volume keys but can not confirm "reboot system now" button for home that does not work. Please, how do I get out of recovery mode? Please...

When the volume keys to select the option "reboot system now" and press the power button nothing happens. Nothing happens even when I press the home button, which I did not ever worked. When I hold power button for 10 seconds the cell phone turned off, and when I hold a few seconds, the mobile restart and back into recovery mode.

if u guys just like to get the phone back to work, it would be the best to just flash a new ROM via ODIN. After that, the phone boots normally.
But I dont know if this is an option!
Hope u are still able to get the phone to downloadmode via 3-Button-Combo?!

In recovery mode, you also can boot system with power-button.

[Q] Requesting a little assistance!

Okay, so first of all, thanks to all who take the time to actually look at this thread.
The Problem
Okay, so, my little brother has the Galaxy Mini, he set a lock on it (you know the one where you drag your finger to the points on the screen? the 3 x 3 block of circles?) Well, anyway, he forgot his password and has now had his phone "system locked". Anyway, there is an option to sign into his google account on screen though and that would solve the problem, but guess what? Yep, you got it! The little cretin has forgotten his email and password. I tried mine but that didn't work, so I guess it has to be his own.
My question is this: What if anything, can I do to solve this problem?
Any help at all will be greatly appreciated.

try to re-flash the rom.
and if your phone gets start when pressing vol up+home+power key and shows boot animation then your home key is safe in my opinion.

touching is not a compulsion. touch part comes into play when you have two different recoveries installed.

Sorry, i didn't understand. I have to power off, power on and than press back button?

Please can anybody finally help me?
No definitive solution?

When on Sony logo repeatedly press back button many times.

Here it goes:
Option 1:
· Reboot normally. Don't use the option to reboot into recovery.
· Press the Back button over and over again.
· If the phone boots normally without entering recovery check next option.
Option 2:
· Reboot normally. Don't use the option to reboot into recovery.
· Press the Sony Ericsson logo over and over again.
· If the phone boots normally without entering recovery check next option.
Option 3:
· Reboot normally. Don't use the option to reboot into recovery.
· Press the Volume Up button over and over again.
· If the phone boots normally without entering recovery check next option.
Option 4:
If none of the options above work, you most likely have a corrupt recovery.
· Get x8toolbox: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117100 .
· Make sure you have the PC Companion Software installed.
· Make sure USB Debugging is activated.
· Install a recovery using x8toolbox.
· Enter recovery pressing of the Volume buttons over and over again.
@CnC-ROCK - How you enter into recovery is entirely dependant on how it was configured, not on how many recoveries you have installed. For example, if you install dual mode recovery using x8toolbox, you enter xRecovery using the Volume Down button; and CWM, using the Volume Up button. See? In this case no touching is necessary.

Sure you can. Make sure you actually use the dual mode recovery option in x8toolbox, and not just install xRecovery on top of your current recovery.
By the way, I don't see any reason why you would need xRecovery nowadays. But you can.

yeah.. its working fine for a year. but suddenly its just stuck like that..

Does your phone boots on recovery?
If yes, try to flash a custom rom.
If you don't want custom rom search for your country's stock rom and use odin to flash it.

i try flash the new recovery, but when i get into download mode its just only 10 second after that its restart.. i cant do anything anymore

Try just keep holding the keys to get into recovery for several loops, eventually it should go into recovery and then start getting stock rom flashed. If this doesn't work, try j-tagging (only last resort tho)
Current phone: rooted Samsung galaxy mini 2
Current rom: cm 11
Current recovery: CWM 6.0.4.7
Current tablet: unrooted Samsung galaxy tab 3, 8.0

Not help...
I use CM10.1 improved 07 / 07 build and CWM v5 , probably due to a weak battery and phone suddenly turn off and turn on again but what happens after that is constantly vibrating , black screen and the phone fails to boot . First I tried to remove the battery and put it back the phone turns on its own without pressing the power button , then just like the above , continuous vibration ...
I tried other things , removing all installed on the phone and silence for 1 day . Replacing the battery , try to enter download mode , recovery , could but after a few seconds that happens is the same.
One thing , when I try to press the power button continuously , the mobile phone can boot successfully , and I try to enter download mode and flash a stock rom by pressing the power button continuously until the process is completed but did not help .
My conclusion is that the power button problem , or it may damage the IC associated with it . Any suggestions ? please enlightenment , gan .. thanks

SOLUTION
I have the same bug. And I mean that when I try to enter in the recovery mode, nothing happens.
If you have the same error , please continue reading this , if not, do everything else.
To force the phone to boot into recovery, you should be able to enter , first, in the download mode.
Please flash before , clockworkmod recovery. (I recomend 6.0.3.3)
Before you have flashed cwm, go to download mode again.
At the first screen, you will see an warning message. Now is the time to press some keys... see bellow (TIP: please do not skip the message with the volume up key ! )
Press the home button + volume down + volume up (home+down+up)
Note: You need to press the up+down , and hold it at the same time with the phone vibration.
Release the keys on the samsung logo screen. If you see under the ,,samsung galaxy mini 2,, an logo with clockworkmod. The problem is solved.
If you see the RAMDUMP mode, instead the recovery, go there to see my solution > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2707219
IMPORTANT! > If you still see an black screen , instead samsung logo, please repeat all steps. It worked for me 100% after some long time.
