Getting into recovery and download without rom manager? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

What are the button configurations to put phone in recovery mode and download mode after updating cwm?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App

hold volume down + power from off state
or you can try holding volume up+down + power from off state

Thanks for the suggestion. Tried but didn't work. Anyone know searched forums couldn't find.

AllGamer's solution was correct...
Recovery: (make sure the phone is OFF, like remove battery, put it back in). Hold Volume +, hold volume -, press power button (but don't hold it).
Download: same thing, but make sure it's plugged into a USB or charger

OMG finally..it works! i was under the impression that you had to hold all three to get into recovery. I only thought that because on my nexus s you held vol + and power to get into recovery.
thanks tho!

I must be retarded can't get it. Is this method for the new clockworkmod 5.0.2.7.

Another easy way if you are already rooted is download Terminal Emulator (free) from Market. Type SU+enter to access root then type reboot download+enter or reboot recovery+enter

while the phone is off hold volume up and down with power button when you feel it vibrate let go of only the power button and like Roman said for download just have it plugged in with usb and do the same..

Foreverloco thanks got it. The key for me was to let the power button go once vibration and still hold the rockers. Thanks again and thanks everyone.

Or you could just flash Team Kang's Juggernaut 2.0. ROM has these in their custom power menu (a must on any ROM for me) as well as in the quick panels.

Reboot from download mode or frozen phone without battery pull

Haven't seen this anywhere and searching via my phone didn't turn up a previously existing thread about it.
regardless of the state if my phone I have always been able to force reboot without ever pulling the battery. Just hold power+ volume up+ volume down all at the same time for around 15 seconds. It will reboot while holding the buttons so just hold them till it reboots.
I apologize if this topic has already been mentioned.

I don't think the volume buttons have anything to do with it. You get the same result by just holding power.

Yeah, holding the power button down until it reboots has never ever failed me. Not once.
...the volume buttons are just voodoo at that point.
Nice, thanks for the extra bit of knowledge and the correction. So nice not needing to do a battery pull.

Guess I'm in the minority, because I enjoy the battery pull lol

Galalxy S2 wont go in recovery

It used to be just fine, I could just press vol down and power and would go in recovery, but recently it just wont go in recovery, i always have to use rom manager, or adb to go in there, what do you guys think?
I believe you press both up and down volume, plus power to get into recovery. Not Volume down, plus power.
Its volume up and down.

Press volume up and down and power at the same time. When you see the Samsung logo, Let go of all three.
Mine wasn't going into using darkside kernel it would only work if I used clockwork app so I flashed back to bullet

You could also try flashing the touch CWM using ODIN if that still doesn't work. But usually you just hold down both volume buttons.
Thanks. It works with both buttons. Thanks again

Indeed. Aside from the boot combinations that's about it.

Hold search button for voice commands.
Now we're done
well if were gonna go there, hold home for recent apps
and i wish holding back would kill current app like in MIUI
Menu key opens menu (in apps that support it).
The volume rocker obviously controls the volume... And if you hold the volume down it puts your phone on silent with vibration.
Lol... Now were done here.

Home brings you to the home screen when in an app.

Some ROMs allow for holding volume buttons to change tracks. I think we're done now ;p

heres a hidden one...tapping the power button turns the screen off. techwire news just announced a juicy little tip, tapping power button one time while screen is off will actually turn it back on thought id pass these new tricks on.

Well, if you're going to get into the soft keys, holding Home brings up recently used apps and task manager. hold the search brings up an app selection including Sound hound if you have it installed.

Does anyone know if there is a way to manually assign something to a long menu press on stock? I know you can do it with CM7, but I haven't found anything for TouchWiz.
If your phone is on and you have cwm installed you can press and hold the power and volume buttons together and it will take you straight to recovery.

Just discovered something I want to share!

Well i never saw anyone mention this here so here goes. My phone froze on me out of nowhere and i was being too lazy to pull out my case + batt cover to remove the batt so i tried different button combos till i found one that worked! Holding power + Vol up for about 10 seconds reboots the phone! Once it started back up i tried it again n phone rebooted
Edit: I'm on sfhub's oneclick FC22 ics. Not sure if its exclusive to this build so i suggest testing it out and letting me know if it works on other builds as well.

You can just hold the power button...
Had it happen to me a couple of times. You don't have to hold vol +, just hold the power button down and it reboots the phone

[Q] Can't boot into recovery? Any solutions?

Hello XDA fellas,
Earlier, I was browsing in the S3 section, and someone has ported the S4 camera apk for S3, so without hesitation, I flashed it onto my phone.
Immediately when I reboot, my phone wouldn't go past the boot animation, so I thought... Okay, I will just flash my nandroid backup then.
But what I found out now is giving me a heart attack, my phone doesn't go into recovery, instead, it reboots if I hold down Power + Vol Up + Down for more than 4 secs... so fine... I went to Odins and reflashed CWM with a Stock Rom, but it's still not getting past the boot animation.
If anyone has any solution to this... I would appreciate it if you can share with me what you know.
Thanks.
You need to hold home, power, and volume up at the same time

Recovery: home, vol up, and power, doesnt matter what order press at the same time.
Download mode : same as above except you push vol down not up.
