does anyone here know how i can access the bootloader in galaxy mini?
what do u mean with bootloader?
I guess u mean Recovery or Download Mode. I ever use Motorola V3i, go to bootloader with press * + # + Power.
In Galaxy Mini, phone must turn off first:
Recovery Mode: Home Button + Power Button
Download Mode: Volume Down + Home Button + Power Button
bootloader is not accessible in Samsung devices (except Samsung+Google)
you can flash kernel, recoveries, firmware through download mode.

I did a search but couldn't find anything. Are there any button combos to boot into download mode or recovery mode or is ADB my only option?. I tried what worked on the GS2 but not luck.
Depending on the rom, it should be volume down + power. Hold both until the samsung logo flashes then comes back the 2nd time and let go of power, keep holding volume down and it should boot into recovery. You can also try alternating with volume up + home button + power, same method as above.
Hi,
I've rooted my phone and flashed CF CWM into my phone. I'm able to enter CWM recovery via the CF CWM manager app, however when I tried to enter into recovery via the physical keys (powered down the phone, so press and hold vol down + home key while powering up), my phone just starts up normally and never entered recovery.
Anyone knows what happened?
Thanks.
First, the three button combination for CWM is Volume up + Home + Power.
Volume down is the download mode.
Are you able to get into CWM when not shutting down the phone?
Just hold Volume up + Home + Power for about 10 sec and hold the buttons until you see the Galaxy Note screen.
its working now, i pressed the wrong button combinations LOL.
Thanks for your help
Hi!
I've tried all of metods, home + power, volup voldown + home + power, any combination of them. All I get is samsung la fleur logo blinks for 2 secs, turn off for sec and just boot normally. Any idea to get recovery mode?
EDIT: looks like vol buttons doesnt working, but why I cant get recovery mode?
Connect via odin to see whether it recognizes it while in download mode.Sometimes your phone goes into download mode but the screen doesnt appear..press vol up+down+power for 6 secs and then press vol up.Should be good to go after flashing a stock rom.
GT S5830i-Rocking on Broadcoms gpu...
Here the right guidance:
Download Mode: The Middle of the Volume Button (IMPORTANT!!!) and On/Off Button.
The S5830i has a special Button sequence.
Recovery Mode: Volume up + Home Button + On/Off Button (hold this 3 Buttons till you see the Bootscreen for a second time)

1. Recovery mode = Vol Up + HOME + Power button.
2. Download mode = Vol Up + Vol Down + Power button.
If your vol buttons doesnt working, that mean you cant get to both mode because both combination require vol buttons.
It can be also that ur phone is going into download mode..bt u cannot see..(happened with many)
Press the button required to go in downld mode and connect to pc..
And c if odin is recozing ur cell

Hello,
I'm trying to hold 'vol up + home + power' or 'vol down + home + power' at same time but my phone just start the system... I want to enter in recovery and download mode.
Version: S3 mini I8190L.
Yes, all three buttons are working.
Now I tried to release power when it vibrate, but still not working.
I can't enter in Recovery or Download :S
Hey guys I traded in a s10 exynos, european variant for my s9 Plus, I enabled OEM unlock in der options. When I try to boot into download mode by pressing Power, bixby, and volume down, it leads me back to start. Pressing power, bixby, and volume up brings me to stock recovery. Any solutions how to get into download mode? Thx in advance
Use Fluid nav bar

2 ways:
1. Boot into recovery by pressing Volume Up + Bixby button then Power button. In the recovery menu select bootloader and this will take you to Download Mode
2. Press Volume Down + Bixby button then connect the USB cable.
Does not work I have greyed oem and locked everything
