Can't fully boot recovery mode. - Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I have tried many ways to boot into recovery mode but after the "recovery mode" words briefly flash in blue on the upper-left corner, I always end up with the download mode Odin Mode. What should I do?

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).

Into Download Mode via Recovery ?

dont want to mess around with adb and combos, i just saw in green recovery mode advance (speedmod) a section "boot in download mode"
is this the same way which i need for going back to stock via odin ?
Yes, you can do so through button combos as well

[Q] APP makes a restart instead of booting to recovery / download mode

Hi all,
I´ve searched a long time but didnt find anything. I want to use a App to boot into download or recovery mode. So I´ve tried the app quick boot. The app makes a reboot instead of booting to recovery mode. So I thought its a problem with the app but if I try to boot from the recovery mode to download mode, the SGS will restart instead of booting into download mode or recovery mode. It means I only can boot in the recovery / download mode manually. Any idea?
Thank you

Phone boot in recovery mode automatically

Hi guys, yesterday i tried to install cwm and before i turned off the phone, i press the 3 buttons combination to boot into recovery but my phone still stucks at samsung logo, that's the first thing.
The second thing is before i get the battery off, i restarted the phone and installed a app called 'Reboot Recovery Mode' or something like this, and i opened the app, so the app told me "Are you sure you want to reboot into recovery mode? Y/N" and i pressed yes, but that's the problem.
Before the phone reboot it stucks at Samsung logo, so i know the problem is with the recovery, ok, i get the battery again off and trying to boot in normal mode and voila! the phone stucks at samsung logo, everytime when i put the battery on it restarts and trying to boot into recovery mode (and stucks at samsung logo), i let the phone like 5 hour without the battery to see what's happening, but nothing, the phone is trying to reboot in recovery mode.
The problem is, why when i power-up in normal mode the phone is rebooting in recovery recovery mode? That's happening everytime.
I tried to overwriting the recovery mode in download mode with odin, i flashed the stock recovery, but nothing, when odin restarts my phone, again stuck at samsung logo
Sorry if i make some typo, but i dont know to speak english very well.
EDIT: i think the phone everytime when is powered up is getting the last app process and trying to boot into recovery mode.
PS: adb don't recongnize my phone, just odin, and the only thing that i can do is to enter download mode, i can't open recovery mode...
