Hey all,
I just bought a Note 2 N7100 for my husbands Bday gift and we are unable to get it into download mode to root it. We're no strangers to rooting but this one has us both stumped. After making sure usb debugging is enabled we power the phone off. Then pressing vol down & home & power but only get an android guy with a red triangle with an exclamation mark in it. Any suggestions on what we may be missing or need to do?
Thanks.

It is recovery mode. If I press the home button I get the android recovery menu. No way to post a pic at the moment.
recovery - Vol up+ Home +power
Download mode - Vol down + home + power
If you are getting recovery menu by pressing vol down+home+power then you must have rule out device is not a replica. can you tell what you can see in recovery menu?
Try the volume up button + home + power instead. Or you can download the toolkit in the original android development tjread and have it do it for you.

I couldn't enter recovery mode with vol - and reset button. I had to use Vol - and the power button. Just a heads up. Also, what happens if you don't have an update.zip file on your SD? Does it then go to a recovery menu or is there no recovery menu on this device assuming you have not installed CWM?
Hello
Yesterday i tried to overclock my sgh-t999 with "ALL STARS KERNEL DEVELOPERS" but something wrong has happening and now i cant open my phone.IM stuck i cant entry on download mode or recovery mode to make a reset.NOTHING WORK what to do to reset my phone cuz i dont know what to do in this momment.IM STUCK.
Are you sure that you are unable to get into Download mode? Try this pull the battery, then replace it and then hold Vol Down & Home then pressing Power until it vibrates, still holding Vol Down & Home buttons, until the "Yellow Triangle" screen shows up. and Recovery is the similar with Vol Up instead.

I tried to flash a ROM and when it tried to reboot it was stuck at the logo screen. Before I flashed the ROM I did a backup with TWRP. Now I can't get into recovery mode but I can get into download mode. What or how can I fix this problem via Odin ?
This is a T800
USA area
Thanks in advance
Your need to boot into Download mode by simultaneously pressing and holding Power + Vol down + Home. After the tab has booted into Download mode, press Vol down for cancelling the download mode. Then you must be quick: before the boot screen appears, you need to press and hold Power + Vol up + Home to boot into recovery mide.
Best, maris

If you search Q&A Help and Troubleshooting this problem has been covered many times.
The problem is purely user error and timing.
From power off simply press POWER + VOL UP + HOME. Hold until recovery boots.
If you are stuck at boot screen then hold POWER + VOL DOWN + POWER. As soon as the screen goes blank change to volume up whilst still holding the other buttons.
Guaranteed to get you into recovery mode.
Hello,
Can someone give me the EXACT procedure to enter into Download and Recovery mode please?
If my tab (SM-T830) is switched off, and I switch it on by pressing Vol down + Power and I keep pressing both buttons, it will boot until the first splash screen (Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Powered by Android) then after this screen, it will reboot..
If I release buttons during this splash screen, it boots up normally
I already succeeded to enter to download or recovery modes before but I have no idea how. I guess I must release 1 or 2 button at the point but when ?
Thanks
Hello,
Hopefully this will be helpful, the following procedure worked for me:
make sure the tab is off
plug the USB cable in your tab (but not in your computer)
hold down both volume buttons together
plug the USB cable in your computer
then the tab start (you may release the buttons) with a menu allowing you to choose (Vol +/-) between download mode and reboot.

It works perfectly, thank! That's a weird way to go to DL mode but it works!
And once I'm already in DL (and flashed a tar with Odin), do you know how I can restart directly to Recovery mode without rebooting to system?

This is really late, but go to recovery and select download mode.
Power off
Hold down all three buttons (power, vol down, vol up)
Once it vibrates let go of power and vol down, continue to hold vol up. Never fails.

Did this several times exactly the same way it's described and it fails every single time. Other way worked perfectly and easily on my first try.
