I've been having some battery drain issues on my phone (EVA-L09) after upgrading to Nougat 7.0 (EMUI 5.0) so I decided to give the partition cache wipe a go. But I hit the wall the moment I fired the recovery mode (Power+Volume Up). There's no option for the wipe in the menu, only the following three options:
Download latest version and recovery
Reboot
Shutdown
I haven't done any modifications to the phone and there's no system updates available either, so I'm a bit puzzled here what gives. I've tried googling for an answer, but all I seem to find are solutions how to actually access the boot menu and how the option should be there.
im having same issue, anyone can help??
same here anyone ?
There are two different stock Recoveries:
1) EMUI Recovery (Recovery, Ramdisk-Recovery)
- Phone powered off
- No USB (Type-C cable) attached
- Press and keep pressing Vol+
- Boot (by Pow button)
2) eRecovery (Recovery2, Ramdisk-Recovery2)
- Phone powered off
- Phone charging (via USB Type-C)
- Press and keep pressing Vol+
- Boot (by Pow button)
Try both ways if you don't see Wipe Cache option.
Btw, pnly in eRecovery (2), there is option:
Download and install latest firmware
Disconnect your charger
Isso mesmo a opção só aparece se estiver desconectado por USB . Como disse o amigo acima .
Wow! thanks. This whole time I've been doing it with my phone on the charger

To use odin you need to enter in "Download mode", and the correct combination is POWER + VOLUME DOWN + HOME
Follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034145
If you are going to use odin to flash stock firmware you need version 3.48. I also tried the one you have and it definitely doesn't work.
Recovery mode is POWER + HOME (to install cwm/roms)
Download mode is POWER + VOLUME DOWN + HOME (to use odin)
Was just using my new XT1068 when it just froze and then refused to ever boot up again. The Android bluelogo on white screen appears and then goes away. Doing this again and again till the battery drains out.
Is there any solution other than returning it ?

I get the following Fastboot screen:
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)
48.07(*) (sha-eadfa...., 2013-07-09,17:07:22)
CPU: MSM8226 CS
eMMC: 16GB Sandisk RV=07 PV=01 TY=57
DRAM: 1024 MB Elpida S4 SDRAM DIE=4Gb
Battery OK
Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0
Connect USB Data Cable.
Selecting "Factory" or "Recovery" simply gives me the same old boot loop with the logo screen and blank alternating till batterry die-out.
What is the "Connect USB Data Cable" instruction ? Is that necessary ?

ok your phone is 100% recoverable if you can still get AP fasboot flash mode
i will sort instructions to help (to follow) as several ways to fix 1st we try simple way
1) get to Ap fast boot mode (hold power and volume down until phone screen fully off and vibrates- count 1,2,3,4,5 and release release both button at same time - should be in AP fast boot mode)
2 use volume down (- ) minus to select recovery DO NOT touch power button
3) Use volume up (seems crazy but is the way) to enter recovery screen will go black
and the fallen android / red triangle comes up....
4) now hold power and quickly tap volume up... should enter recovery (this only works for lollipop) or for kitkat (use 4a)
4a)(optional for kitkat only) hold volume up and quickly tap power.... should enter recovery
5) in recovery volume down to wipe data/factory reset NOW use POWER to select (this take up to 5 mins to complete)
6) repeat with cache
7) reboot
phone should now work
no fallen android/red triangle comes up
When I enter into the AP fastboot mode and select either "Factory Reset" or "Recovery", the phone
again shows the Motorola/Android logo and starts bootlooping again.
I've attached a video of what happens when I select "Recovery" on youtube.
I don't get any fallen android/red triangle.

Install Motorola device manager (for usb drivers) save and run
https://www.motorola.com/getmdmwin
Now download the xt1068 5.0.2 or 4.4.4 in my signature (this will restore/update or downgrade phone)
extract to desktop ONLY do NOT RUN IT yet
download modified CORRECT auto restore script and extract then copy to the xt1068 5.0.2 or 4.4.4 folder (you should now have 2 auto restore scripts)
Manually put phone into AP FASTBOOT MODE (usb cable plugged in) hold power and volume down till screen goes blank (and may vibrate) still holding count 1,2,3,4,5 and release both to get to AP Fastboot flash mode
and run
Modified auto restore script
even if error appear keep going till end (if it allows)
Thank you!
Man, thank you for this - it really saved my ass
Would have been easier if you had mentioned that your script has to be executed in an ADB environment (containing fastboot.exe) though. :good: But anyway, after studying the error messages it helped me to get my Moto G back to life instead of having to send it to service.
Hi
I need help to reboot into recovery.
Have tried most methods on youtube and most android webpages.
The vol up or down and power key all combos.
Only thing i could get was into safe mode.
Model: TA - 1004
Hardware: 64gb storage/ 4gb ram
Software: Oreo8 and was nougat 7.1.1 (didnt work for both)
Dev options: OEM unlocking selected.
Appreciate if anyone can help. Thanks!
Hello,
1- Nokia off.
2- Plug USB cable (mandatory).
3- Then push on vol+ until android robot appears.
4- Then push Power On first, maintain it and then press Vol+ to launch recovery menu.
Works fine for me.
Regards
Christian

Appreciated ty. gonna try
This does not work for me. I've watched videos on YouTube, and still, nothing. If I hold down the volume-up and power buttons, I just get the android logo over and over. This is a pretty essential functionality to be lacking. Someone on Nokia Support forums said some of the phones do not have a recovery?
Personally I tried several methods for booting into recovery, using the button combinations that were instructed on different sites. In the end the only method that worked for me, was enabling Android debugging and using adb to boot into recovery. Too bad that after all that, the recovery was of no help for me, as there was no option to wipe ART cache.

Same experience here, and again I was going for a cache wipe, but apparently Oreo manages cache different to Nougat. Here for what is worth, to the original questioner, is the note I made having finally got into recovery after many frustrating attempts:
1. Connect via USB cable to PC
2. Ensure ADB debugging is on and the "Transfer Files" mode is selected
3. At the command-line type: adb reboot recovery
The phone will reboot to an image of an android robot on it's back with a red exclamation mark and "no command" written on the screen
4. When you see this, first hold the power button down and then, while still holding the power button, press Vol+
You should now be in the recovery menu

I played around with this method, originally Posted by cb_diamond, and found it sometimes worked and sometimes didn't, this may be of help to the first questioner. Almost the same sequence as previously described but holding down Vol+ before attaching the cable, this seems to work consistently for me.
1. Power off your Nokia 8
2. Hold Vol+ down (and continue to hold it down)
3. Plug in a USB cable from your PC into the phone, after a few seconds "Powered by Android Appears" and several seconds later the image of the green android robot appears on screen. You can now let go Vol+
4. Next hold the power button down and while doing so press Vol+
Hopefully you are now in the recovery menu
I have a 8" Tab S2 that I installed Lineage on and I'm going to sell it so want to set it back to factory Samsung firmware. Anyone have instructions available?
Thanks.
I am facing the same exact situation. Did you find something @swallman67?

go to https://samfrew.com/model/SM-T710/ and pick your model# from the drop-down list (My tab is sm-t710) and then get the firmware for your region. The download is slow as hell, but it's the only place I've found with all/most of the latest firmware zips.
Download odin then flash:
Flashing guide:
1. Download and extract a zip file containing your desired firmware.
2. Open Odin Tool.
3. Boot your device in the "Download Mode":
Press Volume Down, Power and Home buttons at same time for 5-8 seconds until download mode is active.
4. Connect your device to PC via the USB cable while in download mode.
5. Next, check the "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" options in Odin Tool.
6. Hit the AP/PDA button then browse and select a tar.md5 file from the extracted folder.
7. Finally press the start button to begin flashing the firmware update on your device.
My device SM - T810
From Lineage OS 16 I wanted to go back to Android 7 (T810XXU2DRH1_T810DBT2DRH2_HOME.tar)
Flash process everything ok, but then boots only until the message "Android is started"

boot into recovery and wipe cache/format data... I ran into a similar bootloop, but was able to boot into recovery:
Once the tablet runs out of battery.. connect your power cord then:
1. Press and hold Volume Up + Home + Power button for a couple of seconds.
2. Release all buttons after the Samsung Logo appears on the screen.

Moin,
My phone was one day suddenly unable to boot into system nor Recovery, but could still enter fastboot.
Took me a while to figure out that USB Hubs let flash attempts fail too. (you can watch the drama in my older posts)
Now i was able to flash System back into a workable state and it looks like that recovery is also successful flashed.
BUT...i can enter recovery only ONCE per Vol - and Power on Button.
i have NO OTHER WAY to enter Recovery at all. i have no reboot option in system (LOS 18.1).
In fastboot/adb command and after one succsesfull reboot per keys, it always stuck after the Sony logo into a black screen. i then have to restart it into system with Vol+ and Power (one vibration) or shut down with vol+ and power for 6 seconds (three vibration) to get it either into fastboot (Vol+ and USB connect) or system again. then i have to flash it again to get into TWRP once. i tryed the latest twrp version (3.7.0) and one older version (3.3.1) that had once worked until the phone broke.
Any idea what is going wrong here. i have already try to completly wipe everything from the phone and try to fix SEL Linux in twrp. nothing seems to work. Did i miss something?
/€: Now it is again in the full broken state. recovery nor System won't boot anymore and end in a black screen.
/€²: Found the Problem: my lilca zip was polluted with altered files i forgot about.
