Phone seemed fine until earlier when the volume just decided to go right down and it started vibrating. I restarted it and now I'm stuck at recovery as the volume rocker seems to be stuck from the inside. The rocker switch seems to work ok but it's as if the volume is stuck in the down position so that whenever I get into the recovery menu, the cursor just goes loopy as if the vol down is being held.
Has anyone heard of such a thing before and recovered from it or is it a warranty repair job?
Also, any tips on how to RUU the handset in this state?
Any help greatly appreciated.
you can run a RUU while in fastboot mode.
since vol down is constantly pressed i dunno if you will be able to get into it.
try switching phone off, then switching it on pressing BACK + POWER buttons
hopefully this will boot into fastboot rather than bootloader.
if succesful, just plug your phone with a usb cable to PC and run the RUU.exe

Ok so lets start from the beginning. I dropped my phone and although no visible physical damage is visible my volume up button stopped working. When i used to turn on my phone the volume display wouldnt quit showing unless i pressed the volume down button, but volume up would not respond (im guessing vol up is constantly pressed)
I decided to flash my phone, but i also decided to perform Task29 (format internal storage) (From Here)because i have been flashing quite a bit. While doing this i completely forgot that my vol up button isnt working... so i was stuck on the first boot screen, with no internal memory, and since my vol up button is broken no way to get into the bootloader.
I decided to turn it off and leave my phone of the charger and go to sleep (because thats just what i do at night)
In the morning my phone would not turn on at all
Any ideas? I cant send it for repair to T-Mo because its HardSPL and i cant really return it to stock if it wouldnt turn on :/
Edit: Ok i think the non powering issue is battery, the main concern however is, how to enter bootloader without the use of the volume buttons... or flash a rom in any way so that the phone is actually usable.
Thanks in advance
Ok somehow on the millionth's time of trying to get into the bootloader (holding the vol down button) it finally worked =]
Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a fix for my htc, it's stuck in safe mode.
I know I could get it out by holding the power button down then pressing the volume slider down, but the phone body and volume slider have been warped and can't move when I dropped it the other day (the volume must have stuck in the down position to put it in safe mode, but I can't get it to do anything now). I know I'm going to have to take it in for repairs, but I was hoping there's a quick software workaround I could do as I can't really do without my phone right at the moment.
Any help would be much appreciated, cheers!
Try adb and fastboot commands. That's all you can do.
Adb reboot
Fastboot reboot
I am facing a problem which i have never faced before.
My phone is a Sprint HTC M8 Stock Marshmellow and working fine. The problem is when i want to enter fast boot mode, After turning off the phone when i try to press the power button + volume down, the phone vibrates and then nothing happens except a black screen. I can understand the phone is in fastboot mode as its detected by the All in One Tool. But no further movement after that. I have to press Power + volume Up to reboot the phone again to enter my os.
In simple words i cant access the bootloader menu, all i see is a black screen. Can anyone help please?
Hi,
I've got my Pixel on February 2017 from Virgin Megastore in Dubai, all things were going right until last summer after a beach day, I realised that my volume down button does not work anymore and sometimes it still pressed (the button is not pressed physically) which puts my phone on vibrating mode maybe due to humidity or some dirt
I tried many solutions found on the internet: sucking the button, cleaning with Isopropyl alcohol… but no success
This weekend I noticed that my phone consume battery more than normal, tried to restart it but instead of rebooting normally the Fastboot appears
Now I’m stuck in this mode because my volume button down does not work and the power button work like if it is the volume button down, so I can switch between modes (start, power off, barcodes, recovery mode, restart bootloader) but I cannot select none of them
I tried to hold down the power button but it reboots on the same screen
I really don’t know what I can do
Please help me if you have any idea
Thanks in advance
Su fastboot reboot bootloader
Then flash the stock.
It needs USB Debugging to be enabled ? I'm not sure I had enabled it before that when I android starts normally.
Please share with me if you have a tutorial of flashing ROM that would work in my case
Thanks
Just wanted to tell you that I fixed the problem with a “hair dryer”, the volume button down starts working and I could restart the phone normally.
Thank you for you help
Trying to relock boot loader. Have flashed stock and OEM is live but greyed out. Have tried to get back to bootloader screen as per rooting instructions, hold down both volume up and down buttons, hold down power and plug in USB, just goes into start boot loop not getting past the first powered by android screen.
Can boot into download mode but no options there, tried holding the up volume button but nothing happened, tried both up vol and power, nothing, tried both up and down vol, nothing and of course do power and down vol and reboots phone.
Tried vol down, hold power button and USB cable and boot power up loop again.
Tried ADB but phone is not recognised when connected to computer and in download mode, works with Odin so not sure why not with ADB.
Any idea's on how to get to bootloader screen so I can relock?
