[Q] Recovery & Download Button Combo?

I did a search but couldn't find anything. Are there any button combos to boot into download mode or recovery mode or is ADB my only option?. I tried what worked on the GS2 but not luck.

Depending on the rom, it should be volume down + power. Hold both until the samsung logo flashes then comes back the 2nd time and let go of power, keep holding volume down and it should boot into recovery. You can also try alternating with volume up + home button + power, same method as above.

bootloader

does anyone here know how i can access the bootloader in galaxy mini?

what do u mean with bootloader?
I guess u mean Recovery or Download Mode. I ever use Motorola V3i, go to bootloader with press * + # + Power.
In Galaxy Mini, phone must turn off first:
Recovery Mode: Home Button + Power Button
Download Mode: Volume Down + Home Button + Power Button

bootloader is not accessible in Samsung devices (except Samsung+Google)
you can flash kernel, recoveries, firmware through download mode.

S5830i - works normally but cant get any mode (download or recovery)

Hi!
I've tried all of metods, home + power, volup voldown + home + power, any combination of them. All I get is samsung la fleur logo blinks for 2 secs, turn off for sec and just boot normally. Any idea to get recovery mode?
EDIT: looks like vol buttons doesnt working, but why I cant get recovery mode?

Connect via odin to see whether it recognizes it while in download mode.Sometimes your phone goes into download mode but the screen doesnt appear..press vol up+down+power for 6 secs and then press vol up.Should be good to go after flashing a stock rom.

Here the right guidance:
Download Mode: The Middle of the Volume Button (IMPORTANT!!!) and On/Off Button.
The S5830i has a special Button sequence.
Recovery Mode: Volume up + Home Button + On/Off Button (hold this 3 Buttons till you see the Bootscreen for a second time)

1. Recovery mode = Vol Up + HOME + Power button.
2. Download mode = Vol Up + Vol Down + Power button.
If your vol buttons doesnt working, that mean you cant get to both mode because both combination require vol buttons.

It can be also that ur phone is going into download mode..bt u cannot see..(happened with many)
Press the button required to go in downld mode and connect to pc..
And c if odin is recozing ur cell

SM-G970F S10e unlocking bootloader

Hi,
i have a new S10e with latest DTM stock software G970FXXS3ASJG but i have problem following the guides to unlock the bootloader. In developer options i enabled oem unlocking (it is not grayed out yet).
First the combination of bixby and vol- does not boot to download mode -> but it works with vol+ and bixby button for recovery mode and then select reboot to bootloader or over adb with adb reboot download.
when i am in download mode all guides say to long press vol+
but nothing happens -> on the screen is only written press 7sec vol+ and power to cancel download mode/restart phone
Is the bootloader unlocking broken with latest firmware or am i doing somethin wrong ?
best regards,
Thomas

You think it that easy?
Sorry, you're using Samsung.
Check the guide, backup your data, as it will get wiped:

sorry if nobody understands me but the following steps do not work on G970F with the latest firmware ASJG :
"Power off your device. Press Bixby + Volume Down and plug in your device to a PC to boot into download mode
Long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and automatically reboot"
i have to use adb or the recovery mode to get into download mode -> bixby and vol- does not work anymore
and the second in download mode there is no option displayed for long press vol+ to unlock bootloader
EDIT:
Good news ! I made it into the right download mode.
There are 2 download modes, 1 with the option to unlock bootloader and the second one without (can be reached with adb reboot download described in the guide is the wrong mode)
I had problems when trying the key-combo i pressed vol- and bixby (with connection to pc) for over 10 sec but it don't wanted to go to download mode.
For me it is now easier to get into real download mode for bootloader unlocking -> hold vol- and bixby and press power (ca. 1 second only)

Try connecting it to its type C cable either on charge or connected to PC, before doing the hard reset process.
Press power + volume up + volume - to force restart.
When it's restarting, just before Samsung Logo pops up, release volume - and keep holding power and volume + to go into recovery mode.
