[Q] I cant boot into recovery mode

this is a new phone. I had root it using framaroot.
but i cant access the recovery mode. i have tried Power + Vol Up and Power + Vol Down and Quick Boot app.
Holding Power + Vol Up just make my phone keep rebooting over and over. showing the LG splash screen.
Using Quick Boot I get to where the android green robot lying down icon appears, and then nothing happen. pushing the Vol / power button wont do anything. then after a few minutes, my phone just reboot.
Trying to get to CWM Recovery from ROM Manager only show "security error" msg.
Am I not doing it properly?
btw, where can I download stock firmware .kdz file? I have tried some link, none of them work.

Bootloop, Can't get past warning screen in download mode

Hey Guys
So my friend gave me a Note 2 with 4.1.1 that's stuck in safe mode.
So i tried installing TWRP to install a KitKat rom, but i forgot to format data "stupid me :\"
anyways at first it booted till the part where it's "optimizing apps"
after it got to "finishing boot" it rebooted and, well, it's stuck in a bootloop.
so i tried getting into recovery by pressing the 3 buttons, it just continues with booting into the bootloop.
then i tried getting in download mode, it gets to the warning screen, but it refuses to continue when i press the volume up button :|
any help?? thank you

perhaps try to reboot you phone by long press power button...

if you could get the phone to be recognized by adb then you could use:
adb reboot download​
to get to download mode.
Just a reminder:
TWRP :Vol Up + Home + Power (Release Power Button when samsung logo appears, keep holidn Vol Up + Home untill you see TWRP )
Download Mode: Vol Down + Home + Power, then press up when warning appears.
Hope this helps.

that was how i used to get the phone in download/recovery back when it was in safe mode.
but now, adb can recognize the phone, but it's "unauthorized" and stuck in a bootloop so i'm screwed :\
Anyways i think i should just take it to a repair shop but thanks so much for ur help guys ^^

Cant Enter Bootloader!

I am facing a problem which i have never faced before.
My phone is a Sprint HTC M8 Stock Marshmellow and working fine. The problem is when i want to enter fast boot mode, After turning off the phone when i try to press the power button + volume down, the phone vibrates and then nothing happens except a black screen. I can understand the phone is in fastboot mode as its detected by the All in One Tool. But no further movement after that. I have to press Power + volume Up to reboot the phone again to enter my os.
In simple words i cant access the bootloader menu, all i see is a black screen. Can anyone help please?

What is the secret gesture to enter into Download/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.

Question Blocked while rooting

When I was going to root my phone, I must have taken a wrong choice on the download screen (I can't remember what) because it got to another screen like the attached screenshot over this text: "Press power key to continue", but pressing that key does nothing. Every time I start the phone, that screen comes up for about 10 seconds, and then it boots in an apparent normal way.
The same screen of the screenshot keeps coming back when I press the keys for download mode (Volume Up + Volume Down + Power). Pressing the keys for recovery mode (Volume Up + Power, from off) nothing changes. However, I pressed that keys for over 2 minutes and the phone entered in recovery mode. Then, I could wipe everything and rebooted, but the problem persisted exactly as before.
I can't get to the download mode, so I can't download any ROM. What can I do?

Just confirming, you've plugged in the usb cable before pressing the buttons to go to download mode?
Might also try using ADB commands to get to bootloader...
