what causes that i have to remove batt using gingersense 2.3.3
I'm not sure about 3 series of vibrations, but it is normal for the device to vibrate when booting or rebooting into recovery. Is it preventing you from achieving something? What do you mean when you state that you have to remove batt when using Gingersense 2.3.3?

In his broken down engrish, I think he's trying to say he has to remove the battery to get it to start over.

Oh okay. Thank you. In that case, he or she needs to either reflash the recovery and/or reflash the rom. After a full wipe, of course.

I think what's happening might be volume up + power = diagnostic mode (correct me if I'm wrong about what that's called), instead of volume down + power = bootloader. I did that one time when I wasn't paying attention, and was all wtf? You have to pull the battery or there's no response.
If this is the case, you need to do vol down + power to get to the bootloader, then use the volume down button to highlight recovery. Power to select. This will properly take you to recovery.

You may very well be right, PlainJane. Hopefully, the OP will provide us with an update/clarification. Take care and enjoy the rest of your day...

You're holding volume down and power right? Not volume up and power, as has already been mentioned? Also, I'm not sure which gingersense rom you're on, but some of them have a 'fastboot' option. That selection is in menu>settings>applications. Be sure it's unchecked. If that box for fastboot is checked, the phone doesn't actually shut off. WHen you turn it off, it just 'hibernates', so it can be powered on extremely quick. If the phone is hibernating, in 'fastboot' mode, and isn't really off...then holding power and volume down will not get you to the bootloader. You must first uncheck the 'fastboot' box. Although, even if fastboot is enabled, and you hold power and volume down, it should not give you 3 vibrations, which is what leads me to believe that the other guys are correct, and you may accidentally be doing power and volume up.
i think you guys are correct.. i was using mikg.
volume up is what it was.. but why does it do that ?????
is it diagnostic mode did i mess my phone up ???
Thanks all you guys once again sorry about the OP lol

Diagnostic mode shouldn't do anything to damage your phone, as far as I know.

Ever since I went to cm7 nightly, I can't boot into recovery clockwork anymore. Holding volume down plus power does nothing anymore. Yeh I know I can get into it after booting up and going into clockwork but what happens if I can't boot someday and need to get into recovery?
You tried turning off, remove & reinsert the battery, hold volume down first then press power?
why would i remove the battery? Im not gunna take off my defender case each time i wanna do that
Ive done everything else though yes.

Because I asked if you'd tried it, which you haven't.
You thought that maybe the case might be pushing the volume buttons?
took the battery out and held down volume down + power and still nothing.
Is this feature totally turned off in CM7? I dont even see an option to turn on/off fastboot.
Im assuming this issue is the fault of the rom?
Is there another way to boot into the phone and install a rom without holding down volume + power?
EDIT: Did a complete overhaul and everything seems to work now. thx
Can you confirm that the volume keys work while switched on?
my volume keys work at all times

it's defo nothing to do with CM7, the bootloader is a deeper level of software and exists independently to the operating system. do you have adb? maybe you should try the " adb reboot bootloader " command, after you boot into bootloader, remove your battery and see if you can boot back into bootloader normally
Just a thought but have you disabled fast boot? Made that mistake myself and spent 10 minutes trying to figure out what was wrong.
thx guys but i got everything worked out 4 posts up

Press and Hold the Volume Down key and then Press and Hold the Power key until the white HBOOT screen comes up.
boot to recovery
Yep - do it like above posting says: BUT, if it doesn't work,
remove battery and retry. Success.

Also, go into Settings -> Applications and make sure the the Fast Boot checkbox is NOT checked. That will prevent you from getting to the HBOOT screen using this method.
Yea it worked. And yes....my s is s-on couldn't hurt tryin lol

I have a rooted dinc that I cant get to back up in Rom Manager or any other way. When I power off the phone and up volume during power up it vibrates three times and does nothing, it requires a battery pull to get to power up. I'm currently running skyraider 4.3. Any help would be greatly appreciated. not a noob but still learning. THANKS AGAIN

To enter hboot you need to press volume down and power at the same time. Vol up and power puts your phone in qualcom diagnostic mode, which is why it wont boot up untill a battery pull. Once in hboot select recovery and then hit the power button, you should then be in recovery.
Thanks so much, don't know what I was thinking. Any reasoning why I cant get recovery to do anything through Rom Mamager
Make sure the SD card is FAT32 format, and that your radio, HBOOT, & CWM versions are up to the specified levels of the ROM.

I haven't done this for a while but used to do this 100s of times.
I have a stock HTC rom installed without root. It is an experimental version of 2.3 that was never released.
I'm holding down the volume down button and pressing power. When I release the power button it boots normally into standard home screen.
I tried with the back button and the same thing happens.
Has anyone ran across the same problem?
Is there anyway I can boot into HBOOT without the volume down button and no root? Any apps which might help me to do that?
Thanks
afaik you press and HOLD those two buttons until the phone goes on.
Your volume down might have become faulty.
To go to fast boot mode press and hold "back key" while power up. From there press power key once more to go into hboot mode.

I think the volume down button works because when the phone is on i can control the call volume using this button. I also tried the back key to boot into fast boot but that doesn't work.
I hold the two buttons indefinitely. It's only when I release the power buttons that the phone starts booting but always boots into normal mode.
Any other ideas? thanks.
Lol try hold volume up + power

Awww damn!
I guess the only other thing I could try is to flash a different RUU.
Does anyone have a link to the stock Froyo RUU? Would flashing it over a stock GB rom work or wuold it complain that the HBOOT version is different?

Press n "hold" back, press (wait 2 second) and "release" power. Simple. You can't do it wrong. Try again please.

I am really not an idiot.
1) Press and hold power and 'back' at the same time
2) Waiting waiting waiting.... 5 - 10 seconds, nothing happens, black scren
3) Release power while still holding 'back'
4) Same thing happens with volume down and volume up

I want to install an ICS Rom. So I need to root.
To root I need to install the custom HBOOT drivers otherwise unrevoked doesn't pick up the device.
In order to install the custom HBOOT drivers I need to be in HBOOT with USB connected. Is there any other way?
K, does ur volume buttons work when phone is booted? If so, turn off the phone then pull the battery out for 10- 15 seconds then put back in, then press and hold volume down and press power button (while holding vol down) it should boot bootloader
Also make sure in
settings/power
That fast boot is not checked (if u got that option)

Wicked! Thanks!
Removing the battery made the difference. It seems that I have to remove the battery every time after power down or when I powers up it skips HBOOT. Nonetheless it works!

Hi! I need help, I cannot go into recovery mode on my Zenfone 2 ZE551ML 64GB model. I have tried the obvious way i.e., Power Button + Volume Up at the same time, it does boot up doing so but don't go to the Bootloader from where I can go to the Recovery mode. I did gave my phone in servicing because in an accident I ended up breaking it's MIC and my bike :crying:. Anyways am I doing something wrong here. Please help.

Hahaha you did it in the wrong way...
first... you need to hold down power + volume up button..
release power button after your phone vibrates two times (but still hold volume up button)
once you see "ASUS" boot up, realese the volume up button...
after that you will see fastboot gui where you can see "NORMAL BOOT" click volume down until you see "REVOVERY MODE" then click power button..
after that your phone will reboot and you'll see sleeping robot and ERROR message, if you see that just click volume up button then power button (you need to do it fast) then release power button, keep trying until you enter the recovery mode (volume up, power button, realese power button)
hope this will help you

I think after unlocking bootloader and flashing custom recovery and kernel would make life so much simpler.
You'd think that, yes but as the expression goes, "you make plans and life happens"...
Besides, if everything went right Murphy would be out of a job... (if that is a bit cryptic it refers to Murphy's Law - "What can go wrong will go wrong", I like to add the amendment, "at the worst possible time"...)
It's a bit poetic I think...
