I was in recovery and suddenly my phone died while i was installing Cyanogenmod 10.1.
Then i tried to charge the battery and boot into fastboot by holding +/- volume and power buuton, but the phone would just boot normally.
The installation of Cyanogenmod 10.1 had not completed, so i was stuck at the Google sign.
Is there a way to get into fastboot-download mode or in recovery?

Have a read here.
Hold volume up and volume down, and then press and hold power.
I did it but again it took me to the Google sign.
Same problem

Have you found any answer to this problem?

are you pressing and holding both vol up and down and THEN pressing the power button and continuing to hold the vol buttons?

I know the command sir, im just asking the other user if he can go in fastboot via adb.
At the other hand, no problem from bumping old thread with same subject. It is better than open a new thread

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.

Yeah, that's the problem, pushing those buttons don't bring up a menu for me...

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.
After I finished flashing cm 10.1 rc and rebooting it, my phone got/gets stuck on the google image and it won't boot up. I've been trying to go into recovery mode by taking out the battery (and putting it back in) and holding the down and up volume buttons and power but every time I do it I get stuck in ODIN mode where it says "Downloading Do not turn off target". Am I boned? Thanks for the help in advance.
Volume up+volume down+power will take you to the bootloader/fastboot interface, from there using the volume keys you can boot your custom recovery.
Wipe data this time.

You read the ENTIRE post.
You know what mode displays the message "Downloading Do Not Turn Off Target" don't you?
So tell him, how to get in fastboot mode, instead of quoting me.

why i cant go to fastboot? i hold the volume down button and turn on the device but nothing happens. i did it a couple of times but nothing happens.
is there a possibility that the bootloader is locked? but i did many search about that but i found nothing
fastboot
im pretty sure you have to turn fastboot OFF in settings. otherwise you have to take the battery out everytime you want to boot into fastboot mode. i just restart my phone with fastboot turned off and hold volume down untill you see the boot animation.

First of all your phone has to be rooted....then install the following app from playstore ,it will give you freedom to directly reboot in recovery mode and also an option for fast reboot or boot in bootloader or fast switch off

No. i have to go to fastboot to do rooting.
Sorry if this has been discussed before. I am not new to the rooting scene. But I am stuck on this issue
I am attempting to enter download mode for my Samsung Tablet 3 10.1 Wifi.
I am pressing the power / down volume combo and I get to the boot screen and let go. From here it goes right into recovery mode
I get the screen with the android and it says no command / error and stops there with the recovery options.
At this time I am on stock 4.2.2 and been trying to get this error figured out. I have searched briefly on here and googled other solutions but they all require to get into download mode, which I am having trouble getting to.
Any suggestions ? Or point me to a solution

Hi !
Thanks for the quick reply. I have tried that method as well and it still sends me to the recovery screen. Though I did manage to see a new screen that gave me a option to press volume up to continue and volume down to reboot. When I pressed volume up it just rebooted normally

Hello, i have bought a nokia n1 with the chinese firmware and i have followed this tutorial for install the taiwan firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/noki...t3083115/page4 #39 .
When i have reboot my tablet after entered this command " dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/pci/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/by-name/system (/pci/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0 ", my tablet does'nt boot and stuck at powered by android. I can have adb and fastboot command but i don't know how i can restore my tablet. Anyone can help me ?
Sorry for my bad english and thanks you
If you have ADB access, you can run:
adb reboot recovery
After that you could reinstall using ADB sideload and this file : http://ota-service.oss.fc811.com/upl...&sn=L123456789
My N1 won't give me adb access, so I'm in a worse state than you
Hello i have resolve the problem by sideload the full rom (A5CN507) but i have don't use adb for boot into the bootloader i have press the volume down + power button and then go to recovery.

Thanks for mentioning. I have tried with volume down + power hundreds of times and my device refuses to go into bootloader. =/
I'm sure I could unbrick the same way you were able to, if i could just get into bootloader one time!

I had some trouble booting straight to the bootloader as well.
I don't know if this helps but anyway: After you power off the device, press and hold the power and vol- buttons. When you see the "Powered by Android" logo, let go of the power button but keep holding the vol- button. The tablet should boot into bootloader mode. I initially made the mistake of holding both buttons the whole time.

Thanks for the tip, i will try that. When I last tried, if I held any button at all, the tablet would never show the "powered by android" screen. It would only show it right after i released all buttons.
