Hey guys, so I had unlocked my bootloader a while back and just rooted my phone now using the toolkit recommended on Droid-life. Now when I boot my phone into the bootloader (power button and volume down at the same time) it takes me to the bootloader and says "coin mode" in the top left corner of the screen. It also says:
Downloading... Do not turn off target!!
I've tried rebooting and battery pulling but everytime I enter the bootloader it says this. How do I fix this?
Thanks!

Power button + Volume down will bring you to ODIN.
To go to bootloader it's Power Button + Volume Up + Volume Down

Hey there.
I am boarding an airplane in a couple hours so I am urgently seeking help.
I am using akop b25. I was installing a Google music apk and my phone restarted. It then went into a boot loop.
When I turn the phone in using power+volume down, it boots into a screen like fast boot except it says ODIN mode in red at the top, under the android picture it says downloading.... do not turn off the target. The only thing I can do from here is battery pull or press the power button to activate "start", which just boots the device and back into boot loop.
Can anyone help me with this situation. Thanks alot
Try another button combo. Volume up and power button?
In recovery, reflash the rom. I'm not sure though how an apk install caused boot loops.

To get to fastboot the button combo is Vol Up + Vol Down + Pwr. From there select recovery and reflash.

Wow, epic face palm. I could have sworn fast boot was volume down only. Okay, I should be fine then.
Thanks a lot guys
For the life of me I can't get the Vol Up + Vol Down + Power button combo to bring up any menu options in the recovery mode on my Galaxy Nexus. This is a GSM from the Play store. I'm running stock Jelly Bean setup. I was trying to unlock the bootloader and do the factory image install, but I kept getting a boot cycle. I tried to go into recovery to data wipe, but I couldn't ever get the menu options to come up, just have the Android on his back with the exclamation point. Anyone else see this?
that is the stock recovery.
press power and vol down and up and you'll get the menu.

Wait, let's see if you're not confusing things.
To unlock: with the device off, 3bc (3 button combo) power+vol up+vol down. Hold it until you see bootloader screen. Connect the device to pc previously set up with fastboot, and in a command line, type 'fastboot oem unlock'. Accept on the device.
When in recovery (accessable by using volume keys in bootloader screen, also allows to reboot bootloader, start system), press vol up (or vol up+power, can't remember right now) to see stock recovery menus.
Nevermind recovery right now, follow efrant's guide on flashing stock/unlock. Set up fastboot. Don't use toolkits.

Ok my phone is now flashed. But I still can't get anything to show up in stock recovery. I can get to bootloader and volume up to recovery then I get the android on his back with bang. No button combo here brings up any menu options.

Awesome, thanks! This actually works, not sure why the 3 button combo wouldn't get it every once in a while. Is the 3 button combo used for the CDMA VZ version of the phone? I even saw this used in a youtube video!

Nope. It's power and volume up to get into the recovery menu from the recovery screen. Power and volume up and down is to get into the bootloader.
I tried power and volume up. Nothing happened!!!
I flahsed back to stock.... and got bootloop. since I didn't flash data image.
Edit:
Ok got it. press power button first .follow by volume up.
I just flashed a rom and now my phone is stuck on the boot animation, I tried pulling battery and booting into recovery by holding the power and volume button, but the phone just starts up in odin mode. I flashed 4.2 yesterday and I wanted to go back to 4.1.2 and this is how I got into this mess.
can anyone help get into recovery?
thank you in advance.
press power and vol up and vol down... not just power and vol down (thats why you're going into ODIN mode)

I was flashing a new rom yesterday. But during flashing, the recovery 'hang'ed. I pressed the power button for a few seconds, it restarts to the htc quietly brilliant screen. Now I can't access bootloader or recovery using Power + Vol buttons. Please help

Turn off the phone completely press power button for about 10-15 sec then try with 1. volume down and then press power button no way to not go in bootloader. The hangs on the recovery can't broke your phone.

Still can't go to bootloader. I tried different ways. Press the power button then the vol down button. Press them at the same time. Vol down first then power button. Still stuck on the same screen even after I pressed it for minutes

After half an hour, now I can go into bootloader! What to do next ?
Edit: I flashed a new recovery. Flashed a new rom. Now all is back to normal. Thanks for your help.:good:
I was excited to wait a new ROM since in a couple of days ago, when I turn on my phone the HTC white screen is stuck when I attempted to install the new ROM (4.2.2). Even pressing the power button, volume buttons and bottom slides won't work.
Is there a chance to repair my phone?

read post #6 and when you are in bootloader flash recovery and then rom
My 7-year old was playing a game on my wife's 3a XL tonight and it shut off. Now it's stuck in a bootloop.
I tried to boot into Recovery, but was greeted with the busted android screen. So I tried to boot into Rescue, with the same result. The bootloader is still locked, so all my attempts to flash factory images or boot into stock boot, I am greeted with the "not allowed" error.
Any ideas how I can recover this, or is it completely bricked?
If your bootloader is still locked you should be able to sideload the stock OTA. I've never heard of not being able to boot to stock recovery either. What method did you use to get there?

When you reach that screen on recovery you hold the power button and tap the vol + button and your options should show up. Just factory reset the device.

I tried to boot to TWRP but couldn't because the bootloader is locked. So I tried using ADB commands to sideload through Rescue, but it only said "error: closed".
Ended up doing a factory reset. (running now)
Haven't seen you in awhile
Well well.... thought i recognized that username. Good to see you again.

I cannot get my phone into fastboot or recovery. It stuck on the white google loading screen loop. I hold the power and volume down and it goes into fastboot but if I release the volume down button to scroll (while holding the power button) it will then go black and go back to the google white loading screen. If I hold down the volume down button and release the power button it will restart back to the fastboot page. If I release both then it will restart and go back to the white google screen. If I do power and volume up it goes to the "andriod no command" sreen then back to the googe white screen. In sum, is my phone recoverable?

When in fastboot, don't hold the power button down to scroll. Is your bootloader locked?

I'm guessing its locked because the phone is completely stock. When I get to fast boot I dont hold down the power button, but if I hit the volume up or down it instantly goes back to the google white screen and starts the loop over.

When on the bootloader screen can you fastboot a full image to the phone?
Said another way, try to download the full Google image.. not the ota... Setup a computer with fastboot and driver's boot the phone into bootloader mode and try to run the flashall.bat

Try-Once in bootloader scroll to recovery and press power button. When you see Android on his side hold power button and press volume up button. You should now be in stock recovery. From there you can adb or factory reset.
Edit- to get to bootloader power off phone then hold power and volume down buttons at the same time.
