[Q] where is my reboot option - Moto X Q&A

When I press the power button, I get a pop up that lets me change from ring to vibrate to no sound....let's me power off or turn airplane mode on/off.
But I used to have another option to reboot and then go into a choice of system or recovery. I seem to have lost that option.
How do I get the reboot option back?
I have a Verizon DE...4.2.2, rooted, unlocked, running TWRP recovery and of course superSU. I've reinstalled TWRP and superSU but that didn't bring the option back.

Its not an option by default. You get it from custom rom options, or Xposed modules.

He is correct sounds like your xposed Apps are not working or you need to install them i know gravity box gives you the option to add the reboot option.
enjoy

Or get quick boot from playstore. Not a power menu item, but an app.

Or just hold the power button for 6 or 7 seconds while unlocked and it will reboot. No app needed.

Power down reboot options

I have noticed when powering down a box with options. I just use the reboot option. When should the recovery option be used. If you used that option what does it do? Will it fix a troublesome app?
The recovery option have nothing to do with apps. It's for booting into clockwork recovery.

It never seems to work for me to be honest with you.
the reboot to recovery from power button does'nt work (at least for me on CM7.02)... to reboot to recovery use ROM Manager (after you have installed last CWM)...

Reboot on power menu?

Is there any way to get Reboot (by itself, or along with the additional Reboot to recovery, etc.) on the power menu?

Only once you have root. You can probably make a shortcut to it on one of your homescreens using something like quickshortcutmaker, but that won't be quite the same.

Do you mean the answer is no I can't get Reboot on the power menu, but if I have root then I can make a desktop shortcut to reboot?
There is no way to get Advanced Power Menu without Root.
You can however hold down power and the device will reboot.

Not on the power menu but if you want to wipe temporary files and force a reboot you can do the following.
This will remove any temporary files that may be causing the problem, but will not delete your files or settings.
1. With the phone powered off, press the VOL DOWN KEY for 2-3 seconds then POWER key then release.
2. The device will display different BOOT OPTIONS
3. Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL to Recovery and VOL UP Key to select
Tip: If the device reboots, you may have waited to long to make a selection, you will need to begin the process again.
4. The device will display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress ( logo with Exclamation mark)
5. Press and hold the VOL UP key for 10-15 seconds. While still holding the VOL UP key tap and release the POWER key
Tip: You can try this step, holding the phone in landscape. If you are stuck on step 6, try a force reboot by pressing the Power key and Vol Down key, and start the process again.
6. The device will display additional menu options (Text will appear in BLUE)
7. Use the VOL DOWN Key to scroll to wipe cache partition and the POWER Key to select this option
8. The device will then perform the partition wipe
9. The device will reboot and start the normal power up sequence
I meant you can make a shortcut on the home screen without having root. The actual power menu can only be edited on phones with root access.

There's multiple apps that can put a shortcut on you're desktop, quickboot and ROM toolbox are just two examples, but they all require root access.
Pushing the power button for power menu extras can only be done with either xposed frameworks or a custom rom , again both require root and or unlocked bootloader

Apparently I was wrong about not needing root for a shortcut. My apologies for misleading you.

Actually, I have root. Does anyone know if there is an Xposed module for expanding the power menu options that works with the Moto X?

GravityBox has what you are looking for plus more.
How can I get extra buttons on power menu WITHOUT using Xposed? I'm using ART.
And also I have root.
Thanks.

Sir, all I find are widgets, and I don't want anything about that.
I just want to modify the power menu to access from the power button, but with the option of reboot, without using Xposed.
Thanks.

Not going to happen without Xposed or a custom rom that has an extended power menu.
As said above, there are apps. Quick boot works well and is not a widget.

You do realize there is a hidden/default reboot?
Hold power for 8 to 10 seconds & it reboots.

This is just one of the things I wanted to avoid to do (I found it forced, not like when I turn off the phone and then turn it on again), but anyway, I DID realize that, so... no way, to do this.
Thanks, anyway.

what are you using to reboot into recovery?
here's the failsafe way to access recovery:
power off the phone, press and hold volume down + power for a few seconds then release to access bootloader menu. press volume down to highlight recovery, then volume up to select it.

strange, are you unlocked and using twrp/cwm or locked and using slapmymoto? if you're unlocked, i'd recommend reflashing twrp/cwm recovery image, sounds like it may be corrupt. if you're locked, i can't help as i haven't messed with any of the locked device stuff.
im on a locked device, used slapmymoto, thanks for trying,can anyone else help?
Why do you need to be in recovery. You should have write protect off already. If you are trying to flash something you can't without safestrap and the zip needs yo be made for safestrap. Just manually move the emails and change the permissions

Press Power + Volume Up at the same time when it shows "no command" (And if that doesn't work try Power + Volume Down )

If the button presses while rebooting to get to where you can select recovery doesn't work... You could try Quick Reboot -> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.siriusapplications.quickboot to reboot into recovery, or open a command prompt on your PC.. and issue the command.. adb reboot bootloader then pick recovery from there.. If those ways also error with that same message you are seeing now, then your phone doesn't has a problem with its recovery partition.
As others have said, if you are rooted with Write Protection disabled (SlapMyMoto v1 thread tells you to run MotoWPNoMo first, to disable write protection, then follow its process), you should be able to go in, rename the old APK, and replace it with the new one (and set the attributes the same) without needing to be in recovery.
Then again, if you rooted with SlapMyMoto .5 (before the MotoWPNoMo was available), or you never did the MotoWPNoMo process that would explain why you want recovery... you're trying to boot to "recovery" so that you can boot with the Write Protection disabled so you can make this change.

Power off your Moto X
Next, boot into bootloader mode by holding Volume Down and Power
At the bootloader screen, use Volume Down and scroll to Recovery, then press Volume Up to select it
Once you rebooted into recovery mode you will see No Command. Hold Volume Up and press Power to show the recovery menu

That almost didn't work for me, till it did.
I was holding down volume up first, and about half a second to a second later the power button (while not having released volume up button). That didn't work.
I pressed both buttons exactly together, and it worked.

Seems to be missing some steps
First hold power button until you see power off/restart option, dont release power button instead keep holding power button until you see 'rebooting...' message, then release button,wait until recovery is shown then use power button to step through the options. Once recovery is highlighted, press and hold power button again for about 3 seconds to select that option.

simply pressing power at this stage will just reboot (continue). You need to either press and hold power for a beat or rapid press to get it to jump to next option.

For starters, 27 is ancient; you need null 23

Yeah i know that but my older oneplus use to have a setting in developer option...as soon you go to turn off phone ...you have option to go rate to recovery. On my Xiaomi 12s pro i have extended power mode in developer option
It's called Advanced Reboot or Advanced Restart and it's no longer available on OOS. Just use magisk or Simple Reboot app.
