[Q] Issue with recovery. - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I'm having a problem with recovery. Every recovery I've ever used, you would use the volume key as up and down and the power button as select. This is the way it was on the my touch to begin with. Now, the power button doesn't select any more. I can boot into recovery and move up and down, but I can't select anything. Anyone know how to fix this. I flashed back to a rooted stock with odin. It went back to stock recovery but it still doesn't work.

push the home key to select.

How to go into hboot?!

Hey,
I accidentally got into hboot after I couldn't go directly into recovery(clockworkmod) and I'm wondering what buttons do you press and if you hold them etc so you go in there, I succeed to do that a few mins ago but idk how I came there, I need it to do a full wipe and install another rom.
Hold vol. down and power to boot into recovery.
That didn't worked, I done some searching and tried like tons of combinations and pressing back + power works for me, luckily.
vol. down + power boots into recovery
back + power boots into fastboot

[Q] Problem with loading into recovery

Hi guys I need help..
I was putting a custom hboot through bootloader. After i successfully did that i realized that the down hardware button isnt working... Now the only method to load into recovery that i know is pushing down and power buttons together.
Since down button not working I can not load recovery and so can not install any rom
Can anyone help me with this ?
Is there any alternate method to load recovery?
Pull battery out n put back in then press n hold back button + power, thats u in fastboot, then press power button on bootloader then use volume up button to scroll through menu to recovery.
Thanks for the help

[Q]

hey guys,
after doing a factory reset my m8 automaticly went into the twrp custom recovery which restarts over and over again.
i cant turn off the device.
please help
press and hold both volume up & power buttons until the screen goes black.
release both buttons and quickly press and hold volume down button.
This will take you to hboot, then select recovery .. reinstall your ROM or restore your backup.
When in recovery, restore your backup or install rom

[Q] I am at the bootloader and my power button won't let me select

I took my phone in for a cracked screen and when I got it home I found out the volume up was not working. So I booted into recovery thinking I could check in recovery to see if it was a software or hardware issue, but the volume up did not work there. So I rebooted and now my GPE edition rom is stuck at the spinning dots. When I go back to the bootloader I cannot select recovery. My volume down button make the selection go up, my volume up button does not work and for some reason even though I can reboot with the power button, I cannot select with it. Is there any other tricks to wipe and reinstall?
ADB does not return a device list.

I had the exact same problem, but opposite. Vol down didn't work. Bootloader problems were the same.
Your issue is that you vol up is stuck.
The way i fixed it was to pull off the volume rocker and put it back on my own. I DO NOT suggest you do this.
When you took it for repairs, the reassembled it incorrectly. Take it back and have them fix it.

Flashed TWRP but can't enter with button shortcut, only from fastboot.

Unlocked phone's bootloader and flashed the latest TWRP, downloaded straight from their site and md5 checked.
If I try to enter TWRP from fastboot, it enters fines but the shortcut just doesn't. If you can't enter twrp from the shortcut, then your basically screwed if you brick it..
I even tried flashing twrp all over again, and still have the sample problem.
So how can I fix this?
i have the same problem, plus the fact that i had error during flashing new rom and now i can't even go back to stock, cause my PC doesn't recognize phone in download mode. Any fixes?

If u have root u can use an app called Flashify download from playstore go to recovery by using this app n The regular way to go Volume up and power button delete all select yes confirm yes u go into TWRP
Use Flashify or while you're in recovery flash again the recovery use the "Flash Image" option. And now you'll have permanent recovery
i found a solution, when your phone is off press volume down + power until lg logo appears, then release power (keep holding wolume down) and press power again. Then double yes and boom TWRP

Thanks mate. This made the factory reset menu open, and after clicking yes twice it did a normal factory reset like there was no twrp there.. I flashed twrp a couple of times with no error messages, and even got into it a month ago. How did it disappear.. what the hell
