Download mode without a working home button? - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to enter download mode without a working home button? I stupidly flashed my recovery with a twrp app and now I'm stuck on the opening screen with the phone trying to enter a broken recovery. The home button broke so I can't enter download mode to flash a new recovery with PC Odin.
Thank you

You can use this to force it into download mode

Or you can also use adb.. type reboot download instead

[Q] nvfalsh problem. can't enter apx mode

I'm currently using Topogigi ICS 28G.(using new bootloader)
it can boot the rom, enter cwm normally.
but the problem is it can't enter apx mode when I connect it to pc.
after I press vol+ and vol- while connecting it to pc, the screen flash for one second and nothing happen.
the pc not detecting the phone.
wish to try cm10 and need to go back to oldbootloader by nvflash.
anyone has the same problem and solution for it ?
or are there any way to change bootloader without using nvflash ?
btw, I'm sure the cable and pc is not the culprit.
I try to enter apx mode using my friend o2x and it done flawlessly. but not my o2x.:crying:

Go to the recovery, wipe data/Factory reset.
Then reboot. switch it off. Take out the battery. Press the vol- and vol+ button, then put the USB cable.
It should work.
Solution found !

Are you sure LG drivers are installed? Make sure screen is ON when you type.
Ensure device is connected by typing adb devices.

They are very important steps before make root, flash recovery, rom, etc.
Try to hard restart the phone by pressing all the 3 buttons(volume rockers+power) and then go to any recovery and reset your phone.
And please rply if that works...

Get a new charging cable and charge your phone again. It happened to me too. The charging cable that leeco provided is of poor quality. Many people are facing the same issue of their phone not turning on. All you need to do is buy a new cable and charge your phone using it. A new cable costs around Rs 200.

I to would like to know how he solved it. Phone will not switch on, windows 10 does not recognize it, (unknown usb device: invalid configuration descriptor) so I can`t flash it, I have tried everything I can find. Last thing I tried was holding all buttons while plugging in usb and managed to flash the phone, but now when I plug in my x626 all I get is the battery symbol (not charging) and no light. Pc still does not recognize phone unless I hold all buttons down. Please help!!

Ok, make sure you enabled USB debugging first, and try again.

What?!
You can boot your phone, why the whole bother!!!!
You can reboot into download mode, using the advanced reboot menu, if you don't have it, you can activate it from developer options.
Also my recommendations are:
1-buy a USB jig to be able to boot into download mode anytime and in any case.
2-fix that button...I'm serious..fix it!

Why would you wanna go into download-mode?
No: your phone is NOT defective, only there's a new procedure to get your phone in download-mode:

I can get to it via recovery on my Note 9,I have no explanation as to why you're having issues.
Perhaps try the method given in post #2 of this thread.
New method now for Note 9 download mode. Power off, hold Bixby+Vol Down and connect USB cable to PC to trigger it.
Can't boot into download mode too....
Australia ver....

Yip, this works...but tricky combo to hold down Bixby and Vol Down while plugging into USB power...I almost took my device in for fixing because I just could't for the life of me boot into Download mode after encountering the dreaded custom binary error on trying to boot up...
