Hi my volume button down is broken and everytime it boots it's in safemode.
Whenever trying to access recovery it normally boots up when buttons are pressed.
Booting into download mode freezes it, I have to do a hard reboot by pressing all the buttons.
Volume/power button work fine when in use.
I've opened up my phone to disconnect my volume button it stills boots up in safemode.
I've tried 2 new roms still in safemode.
Hello brother,
Even you flash 2 new roms still booting up safe mode, bad seen
i feel your volume down button was keep pressed maybe,,,,,maybe (it should be b coz of dust or something else).
to be confirm is that your volume button broken or pressed follow the steps below
1. switch on your mobile release the power key and Press again the power key and wait till finish the boot, (if the device get restarted it means we can confirm your volume down button was pressed & hold)
2. press home button & power button check if the device is going to download mode ( if you stuck press power button u will get exit)
how ever try to clean the volume down button inside and pull slightly. after turn on your mobile.
if your damn sure volume button was broken not working at all, then lets think about it

Hello, I've a very strange issue, but it seems that my reset button (that one pressed with stylus) does not work and because of that I cannot enter bootloader.
In the past I've flashed my ROM many times, so for sure It worked for me before.
Any ideas?
Turn the phone off, hold down the VOLUME DOWN BUTTON, press the POWER BUTTON.
what about hard reset
Ok, it helps and bootloader loads. What about hard reset?
Last time I did it like that:
"1. press and hold the VOLUME DOWN and
ENTER buttons, then press the RESET button with the stylus tip.
2. Release the RESET button, but continue pressing the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER buttons until you see this message on the screen...."
but now I does not work, probably because of the reset button
Try using the same method, turn off the phone hold down the required buttons and press the power button.
I have an i9000 international, and I recently (attempted) to flash Darky's Rom 10 RC6, after flashing it in Odin, my phone started booting. All is fine until after 'S' logo screen. I've tried to get it into download mode frantically, but nothing is working. The 3 button press, not working. I've tried other methods, like removing the battery and plugging it into your computer, then volume buttons, but nothing...
Please help
Are you holding the Vol down + Home + Power buttons together long enough ?
Yeah, I've tried holding them down until the splash screen goes away. Just regularly boots, and then stop holding down power button when the splash screen is up. No luck. I think I might have to just jig it.
It can be tricky, in mine you first have to press home, then on+down, but in order that on goes before down...all other combinations at least in my I9000 won't work, and if it fails, remove the battery put back and try again.

You shouldn't even be seeing the splash screen.
What works for me everytime, is doing it in this order:
Press & hold down the vol-down button & home button, then (while still holding down those 2 buttons), press & hold the power button. You should be in Download mode in like 1 to 2 second. When you see the Download mode, let go of all 3 buttons.
Hi XDA,
I follow the instructions to enter bootloader mode. After switching off the phone I press power and volume down buttons at the same time. The phone wakes up and boots up normally. I've tried different periods of holding the buttons.
Please help.
First hold volume down, then hold the power button.
When it begins to vibrate instantly release the powerbutton and keep the volume down pressed until you get into fastboot

Thanks, it worked! Not so straightforward as it seemed at the beginning
he repeated as often as necessary for you to run the shortcut
For the most part, I haven't had any issues with my phone after lollipop. I'm liking the new features and the new pull down quick access buttons. For some reason though, when I boot into recovery mode, I can't seem to get the menu to pop up. I've tried every combination I can think off with the power button and volume buttons but nothing seems to work. Any ideas?
I've recently had to wipe the cache on my Turbo and the recovery mode does seem to have changed. With the phone powered off, hold the power button and volume down button until you get to the bootloader. Use the volume keys to navigate the menu and press the power button to select. Select recovery and you should see the Android icon laying down. Hold the power button FIRST for about two seconds and then tap the volume up button.
Yes, if you're wiping the cache it will take a long time. Do not freak out! :good: The ETA should be about 20+ minutes.
I've done it before on kitkat and know that it takes forever. The first time I did it though I was flipping out cause I thought it was deleting everything haha.
I did finally get it to come up using that method, and your right it has changed. You have to be really accurate when holding the power button and using the vol up arrow because I was trying that before and never could get it to come up.
Anyway thanks for the help.
After lolipop update it is reversed. Hold power button and tap on up volume... For sure

Whenever the device boots it gives me a security warning and press power button to continue message. Because of it I cannot reboot into recovery because even when I hold vol up and power the screen comes up and i need to let go of vol up for it to register at which point phone boots into system.
Well, the keys need to be pressed before the phone boots up and I think you also need to be connected to a PC, otherwise it won't work. If you're able to boot into system then adb reboot recovery should also do the trick
I usually do use the adb method. But I would like to use a method that is more reliable. My problem is that intermediate screen that appears before the samsing s20 fe screen that warns the bootloader is unlocked and device is unsafe and requires power button to be pressed by itself. It does not register when I have vol up pressed down. And when I release to press power and no matter how quickly i go back to pressing vol up + power the phone starts booting into system.

The phone decides its boot method as soon as the screen turns on, that's why I said you need to have the buttons pressed and connected to the PC way before it even turns on.
Once it turns on and you get to that warning screen you can let go and just press the power button to continue and you don't even have to hold the buttons anymore.
Just do what I tell you and you'll be good
I think holding the buttons after pressing the power button to continue will make it boot to system I think, but I'm not sure lol
Can you get to fastboot? Is this an A/B device?
You can write to the misc partition to tell it to go to recovery.

Well i had the same problem, here is how i solved.
First, you need to have a USB-C cable connected to a PC, if not you can do everything right but it wont go to recovery (and i think not even on Download Mode).
Second, shutdown the phone, don't just reset.
Third, Volume up and Power (keep it holding
Once the security screen come, take off the power button and with the Volume up, quickly take off and press again.
It should go to recovery.
Side note:
hey @ShaDisNX255 , nice to see you here.
