Having no ROM installed (i.e. via Task29) does not mean the vol key method won't work. It should work - remove battery, replace battery, hold power and vol key together for a few seconds. The only reason it wouldn't is if there was something physically wrong with the key.

yup via task 29, mtty. i think there is a wrong in the volume key coz its not working any more.
is there a way to boot via keyboard or my x1 is dead?
are you sure
all you have to do is hold the vol DOWN and power until screen comes up

What do you get when you just turn on your phone? You can always turn on your phone, if you have a ROM flashed it will boot the ROM. If not or not properly flashed then it will take you to the bootloader....

lol.. your barking at the wrong tree man.. read & understand
don't know if this is related but i thought i'd post it still.
i had an issue with task29 once i tried it.
usually, i flash roms using activesync since i'm kinda lazy putting back and fort the x1 cover, battery and all that.
after flashing task29, my x1 went dead. what i did, i removed the sd card,
plugged it to my pc and put the kovsimg file of the rom i like best,
plugged back in the sd card with the kovsimg file and re-flash via sd card method (using soft keys & volume button).
viola! it worked! but then again, i guess that's the way it's suppose to be done anyways.

Ever did a bad flash???? Try it....flash from your pc and pull the USB cable. If you reset your phone where does it take you? Certainly not to boot the ROM, because the flash went wrong.
Well.....
As the OP doesn't tell us specific details about why or how his X1 has no ROM, I'm trying to get some more info on his problem.
So keep your rude words in your mouth before you speak...!
Since when does trying to help someone wastes your time???! Dude you really need to utter your frustrations somewhere else.

Hello! I had this problem a minute ago. Try this:
1 -Turn on the phone. The screen will freeze in Sony Ericsson logo.
2 - After this, hold the two silver front buttons and press the softreset button behind the battery cover (to do a Hard Reset).
3 - Follow the instructions to perform the Hard Reset.
4 - When finished, remove the battery. Wait for 3 seconds and put the battery back.
5 - Now try to hold Vol Down key and turn the phone on.
It worked for me. But OMG, this thing scared me...
Hey guys.. Ummm.. I had a completely, perfectly, fine rooted Galaxy S. [I don't know if it's still rooted or not]
I'd installed Darky's ROM [5.6], and was gonna put in 6.0.
I decided to do a completely clean install for some reason [I don't know, I'm stupid.] and there's where I made the mistake. The phone got flashed n all through Odin, but now my 3 button combo doesn't work.
I searched for a fix, and it requires adb if I'm not wrong. Problem is, adb itself requires busybox and superuser. I don't have superuser in the phone [I suppose I can find it in the market, haven't checked.] but I was installing busybox, and it said that my phone's rooted but something's wrong [something about a nand or something] and that busybox can't be installed.
I want that ROM and I want my 3 button combo working again
Can someone please help?

Which ROM do you have now? If its Darkyy's, its pre-rooted, & has busybox.
Umm.. I don't think I know.
I just flashed the thing with this.. 'h t t p : // w w w. multiupload . com / XWDSKCPGTD' and the JM1 CSC file..
But it's certainly not Darky's..
Though I DID put in the 6.0 .zip file in the internal memory. Haven't installed it though [more like CAN'T install it ..]

Download Tuxility from the market. It has a Thread here in Dev too. You get options of normal shut down, reboot into recovery & into download.
Hope this helps.
I tried that
It doesn't start Force closes
Have you tried Quick Boot from the market?
Yep. I installed it, opened it, pressed Recovery.
Nothing happened
[in the description of the app, it said that root access is needed for it to work, and since the buttons weren't working, I think the phone's not rooted anymore]
I even pressed Download. Nothing happened there either
2.1 ROMs have a different way of entering into recovery & download. You press Vol up + menu + Pwr keys, & you get the splash screen, release the Pwr button for half a second & again keep it pressed till you go into recovery.
Otherwise, there is manual way of installing the superuser & busybox, you need to search the forum.
Umm.. It says it's 2.2
Still think I should try what you said?

For 2.2 you keep holding all the three buttons till the flash screen blanks & comes on, on the second blank screen, release the pwr button. If that doesn't work, try to do it at the third blank.
I pressed the menu and volume button simultaneously while the animation was going on, and I got this screen saying 'FORCED UPLOAD by KEY PRESSING' and a bunch of values on top [in red].
Apart from that, nothing

Oh oh.. One more thing. The power button does NOT turn the phone off! It just restarts it! [so I have to pull the battery out if I wanna turn the phone off]

Up or down volume button? I always press the combination of buttons before the phone starts and wait till I see the download/recovery screen.
Power + up + home => Recovery.
Power + down + home => download.
By the way, this thread is in the wrong forum.

Good luck!
If you want to reflash a clean install but having problems getting to recovery or download, try the homemade jig. I used it when I thought my phone was dead and it worked fine.
Basically, once you have the jig, power off the phone (battery pull in ur case) and insert the jig in the socket. After 2-3 secs it should boot to download. Then you are free to flash with odin. At this stage I recommend repartition etc to ensure a fully clean install.

Try this workaround, it worked for me:
First, root it with z4root, just download it from the market. Then install Clockworkmod from market. From that program flash clockworkmod recovery. Now you can enter recovery from menu in Rom Manager. Once in recovery, there's an option somewhere to go into download mode - and you can flash whatever you want from there
reflash your phone by odin.
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.

Maybe your phone is not totally off before you do 3 buttons. Try to remove and reinsert battery to ensure it is totally off then repeat the procedure. Hope this helps.

@kopitalk - Well you don't require to be off for using the 3 buttons combo for recovery. Anytime press the combo in any screen and keep them pressed till the time the Samsung GT N7000 logo comes up and leave all of them then. it will boot in recovery.
But since its not happening here with nowy57 so the best bet will be remove battery (as suggested by kopitalk). Leave for 2-3 mins and then insert and then try going to recovery mode!!
Use a jig to see if it helps

Does your all three button works separately? I mean it is not defective when you using as routine use?
just check it.

I think, your bootloader is corrupted, which won't replace with 'PDA'.

Hey I entered into a SAFE MODE where all the applications were gone.
This happened to me after a sudden reboot by the system.
Please throw light on how to enter this mode and how it works !!!
I don't think there is such a mode, unless... your /data/ is somehow gone?
There was such a mode on GB, and probably still is on ICS.
Dr.Ketan said you could enter the safe mode by either frequently tapping the menu button or keeping it pressed (can't remember which now) while your Note is booting.

Thanks Vijai but I could not make it work.
I also read in other forums about pressing power and the menu key.
May be I need to know through a step by step process.
Anyone else successful with this ??
