boot to recovery without homebutton - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have to boot to recovery because I forgot to wipe the data when flashing kitkat from stock rom and now its stuck everey time on boot. But my homebutton stopped working a long time ago, so I tried a hunderd times, but it didnt boot to recovery, so is there any chance for me? The adb driver is loaded, so adb works a little bit, but without full boot I only get the message that adb is not authorized.

Unable to access Recovery, Unable to boot.

So I was using my One as usual, and I opened up the facebook app. The phone's screen went black a second later, and started to reboot. It rebooted, and stayed on for about a minute before rebooting again, and again. I then tried to boot into recovery mode, but I was only able to make it to the TWRP Logo before it enters the reboots again. I then tried to switch the recovery to CWM, and make a backup. It finished about half of the backup before it rebooted again. But this time, the boot did not complete. After attempting to backup with CWM, my phone entered a bootloop. I tried booting into TWRP again, and again, but no luck. I am was running ViperOne 6.2.1 with Elemental X 14.12, HBOOT 1.56, and S-ON. Any ideas on how to fix this problem? I just went through the process of wiping, and rebuilding my phone less than a month ago, and I don't wanna do it again. So I'd prefer not to wipe the internal storage.

HTC One m7wls Unknown boot up Issue

I have an HTC One m7 sprint and recently I encountered something usual in the sense that, my battery run out and I placed it on charge while the phone is off. After awhile I try to boot up the device but it takes forever to boot up. I have installed a cm-13 rom on the device which was very stable. I have twrp 3.1.1 installed on the device. my device is S-OFF and bootloader unlocked. For 3 days now I haven't been able to boot up the device to ROM because its always stuck at the cyanogen logo. Whenever i try to boot to recovery, the twrp logo comes and it takes forever to boot into the recovery menu. To be precise, 10-20 mins to boot to recovery menu. Now what buffles me the most is that, I can't format my data because anytime it starts to formatting process starts I get 2 kinds of red line errors:
E: failed to write /dev/block/mmcblk0p19: I/O error
Error opening: '/cache/recovery/ .version' (Read-only file system)
I haven't been able to Restore my backup because of the error above,
I haven't able to copy files to the internal storage
I haven't been able do anythings significant at the recovery
I can't install new ROM
here are some steps I have taken so far to help fix the problem but to no avail
I have flashed older versions of the custom recovery through fastboot but whenever I boot to the Recovery I still see the twrp 3.1.1 i flashed before the problem happened. Even though my command.exe tells me that the flash was successful but it doesn't overwrite the twrp 3.1.1
I have fastboot erased cache but nothing happened
I have tried to return the device to stock by RUU method but whenever I fastboot oem rebootRUU, the device powers off, reboots to white HTC logo attempts to boot phone instead of going into RUU mode.
I have a hunch that somewhat my internal storage is corrupted and is probably causing these problems but I don't know how to go round it.
Any help will be gratefully appreciated.

Stuck on TWRP splash-screen + P10 only boots into recovery

SOLUTION: Turns out I was still able to boot into eRecovery. From there I could reboot normally into the system. I then went into fastboot and flashed Blackball's TWRP 3.2.1-0 build for Oreo. Everything boots smoothly now.
Hello,
today I decided to try and flash the ResurrectionRemix-GSI to my Huawei P10 (EMUI 8.0) which was successful at first. I unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP via fastboot (First Link to TWRP in this thread). From TWRP I did a complete backup and wipe and installed ResurrectionRemix (ARM64 A-only from this thread). The system booted up just fine and everything seemed to work like a charm. I then went on to boot into recovery again, because I wanted to install the pico package from OpenGApps.
The problem now is that I'm stuck on the splash screen of TWRP. When I try to turn off the phone by holing the power button, it just reboots to recovery, which greets me with the everlasting splash screen. I have also tried rebooting the phone via adb -> same result. And to make it even better: When I try to get into fastboot mode via "adb reboot bootloader", I get thrown back into recovery as well.
My current "strategy" is to just drain the battery and hope for the best (well... I can't even turn the phone off anyway). I've read that other people have waited up to 6 min for TWRP's splash screen to dissapear. I'm waiting for roughly an hour now, so I'm pretty positive, that it's stuck.
Hope someone can help.
UPDATE: The battery has drained now. When I connected the phone to its charger, it went straight into recovery and is stuck again. Fastboot still doesn't work.
Huawei phones do not seem to go along very well with TWRP for installing GSIs. The original recovery is required to do a factory reset, before you can boot into system. Can you reboot in fastboot mode? If yes I would flash the original recovery and system from fastboot. It is clearly explained on the Openkirin.net website. I can also recommend flashing one of their GSIs, since they include the Huawei camera and nano Gapps.

No, I can't boot into fastboot mode, at least not via adb (only method I know of). When I run "adb reboot bootloader" it just throws me back into recovery mode with the splash-screen stuck.

Not able to boot into recovery

I was trying to flash a new rom couple days ago and I feel I did a mistake somewhere which led to an issue and I can't manually boot into recovery (I have tried reflashing recovery) when ever I try to boot into recovery or rom does it for Android updates it gets stuck in fastboot from here I can't turn on the phone, when ever I try to turn it on, it boots back into fastboot, the only way for me to actually get back into my device is by using a pc with fastboot boot recovery.img. It usually updates the rom and I can get back to my device from here. I've tried a couple of things but I'm not able to go to recovery without my pc. Suggest me some fixes that could possibly fix the phone
Thanks in advance

Cant boot into TWRP using boot keybinds, only can boot using ADB

Hello today I need help with my GT-I8190 I had trouble booting into TWRP with this device. I tried many times to boot with the boot keybinds but it always seemed to bootloop, once i tried using ADB I got it to work, but something seemed off, It keept bootlooping and the hardware buttons were flashing also if it was connected to charge it wouldnt even boot. So if somebody can help me with this issue or even do something to make it better it would be helpful!
Comment:
I have realised i have installed 3 differnet twrps, I dont know how i did that but I can boot to the 3.0.1 in ADB and boot to a 2.7.1.0 with QuickBoot. Ill tell you if i find a solution
Comment 2: Now i have another problem, im stuck in a boot loop, I am using a custom rom cyangoenmod 12.1 or 12.0.
