I have managed to power on phone with android sdk tool. After that i have back up data and try to enter hboot. Again same problem volume up and down are not responding and when i try just to power on phone it stuck on fastboot screen. I have downloaded shipped rom and try with instaling that one first time it boot up but next time when i power on phone it again stuck in fastboot screen. I have try also to boot directly from sd card not from pc, same problem. Everything works fine with android sdk i have managed to enter recovery in hboot using android sdk but when i power on phone it just stay stacked at fastboot screen. Any suggestion what is next step to try, do you think that rooting will help?

I can power on it with android sdk, but this mean that i will need android sdk every time when my phone goes off

If you pull the battery out and put it back in, can you get into recovery with the power button and volume down key?

did that may be ten times but same result not able to boot into bootloader my phone is not recognised even by my computer please help

I think you should do it faster,
Pull the battery out and press power button
insert the battery in and press volume down
I think the problem is the device start on after you pull back the battery ..!

Insert the battery, than press volume down and after that, press the power button (keep holding the volume down button!).
Than it should work.

[Q] Boot and recovery problem

Hi there,
I am using the Jellytime ROM with my desire HD. When turning my phone on the Jellytime splash screen appears and after that there is only a blank black screen and remains like that. Then I tried to boot the phone into recovery mode by holding down the volume down and power button but that did not work (my volume keys were working fine before) and nothing happened.
Then I looked around for solutions and I found the ADB method. With necessary drivers installed etc. I still was not able to boot into recovery mode since I cannot enable debugging mode and ADB showed the device as offline.
I have no idea what to do from now, anyone know of a solution?
Thank you.

What did you do to get in that state?

This all happened after I charged my battery from it being drained. Ive tried 3 other batteries too thinking it would make a difference but it didnt

Does your computer recognize the phone? If so what about in Fastboot USB mode?

Yeah the phone is recognized as a 'MyHTC' or something similar which I think is because of the HTC drivers I installed. I have the android phone drivers installed but the phone doesn't seem to be recognized as one.
I have tried to use fastboot via CMD but the device was offline. I cannot access the menu since I think my volume down key is not working.

Deconnect the battery, wait 1 minute, connect it again, then hold volume down (till bootscreen come) while pressing power for 1 second
Had the same problem, so i solved it
If you have the attached image on your recovery-screen (after pressing "recovery") you have no recovery-image installed

Thanks for the help everyone. I realised it was the battery case that wasnt functioning correctly. Just ripped off a piece of foil and put it between the connectors which fixed the volume button problem (i think) so i was able to boot into recovery .
Thanks.

[Q] I can't access Bootloader or Recovery PLEASE Help!

My HTC One M8 (Verizon) is seemingly bricked. My phone is rooted, S-Off, with the stock ROM. I have been trying to update to the latest OTA update by returning to stock. I had previously modified some entries in the Build.prop and Platform.xml. I knew those had to be default in order for the OTA to work. I had copied the original files and pasted them to my SD Card so that I could simply cut the modified versions, paste them to my SD Card, and cut the originals from my SD Card and put them in their corresponding system folders.
Upon a reboot something apparently went horribly wrong because all my phone does now is boot with the white screen and green HTC Logo, then the screen goes black. I have tried the typical Power Button + Volume Down but it won't enter the boot loader. The good news is that the USB port seems to still work for my windows computer recognizes a device connecting to it but it doesn't show up as an interactive device in windows explorer..if that makes sense.
Please Help!

When you connect it to the PC can you pick up the device with adb? If so, have you tried to run the command from adb to boot it into bootloader? adb devices ... if found, adb reboot bootloader
:fingers-crossed:

I'm not too familiar with ADB commands but I typed in "adb reboot recovery" and it said: "error: device not found" so even if my command was wrong it's still not detecting it. I also tried: "fastboot reboot bootloader" and it just says "waiting for device"
Also I feel like it's worth mentioning the phone is automatically rebooting every two minutes or so (haven't timed it exactly but it's a while). Still showing the green HTC Logo then the screen goes dim, then the screen turns off.

Try holding volume UP + Power button, this simulates a "battery pull", just hold it in for a while it can take a while to "pull", when it's off try again booting into bootloader, volume DOWN + Power button.

I held Volume Up + Power Button and it showed the white screen with the green HTC logo. I then released all buttons. Once the screen turned off I then held Volume Down + Power Button for two minutes straight and nothing happened.
Even though we haven't found a solution yet, I am appreciative of the help.

sounds like you never installed the htc drivers for your phone, hence your pc doesn't see the phone when you are doing ADB commands.
install the drivers for it, then try the ADB commands via your pc
and dont mess with the build prop or other system files unless you have a working back up and are 101% certain about what you are doing..

Just remember to change directory in command prompt to the folder where adb.exe is located.
I don't know why the device doesn't reboot into bootloader though when you hold volume down + power button, shouldn't have to hold it for 2minutes. Holding volume up + power button to simulate a "pull" should only take up to 20 seconds or so at most and pressing volume down + power will then immediately take you into bootloader mode, or at least it's supposed to.
Did you release the volume up / power combo when the screen went dead or before? Try holding it until the phone shuts off and then right away press volume down + power.
Sorry if I'm not answering right away though, busy eating, and will be here and away for the next hour or so while I get ready for work =o( once I leave for work I'll only be able to help some more after like 2 hours or so. Hopefully we can do something before then though =o)

You're right, I didn't install the drivers. I did so and ADB was able to recognize it and I was able to access the bootloader. Thank you everyone for your help. I won't be making the mistake again.

So you'll be able to fix it from here on then? I was just about to link this thread to you as well should you have gotten adb to work again, it's for the RUU for Verizon seeing as you said you're on Verizon.
But going by your response up there you might already know how to fix this issue further :good:

Indeed I appreciate it, but I just finished installing the RUU ha. Hopefully this thread will be of use to someone in a similar circumstance in the future.

Share another method of getting into recovery mode on non-responsive blank screen
Hi,
I just want to share how I accessed recovery mode with the same build.prop issue but with S-ON (might work with S-Off too).
I found the solution from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...ter-download-mode-t2853100/page2#post62490577
To get into recovery mode on a non-responsive blank screen, hold the power button and volume up button at the same time and then approximately after 10 seconds, switch from pressing the volume up to volume down button before the HTC logo white screen shows while still holding down the power button. After, a white boot screen will give an option to go into recovery mode.

[Q] [Help] Keys not working in bootloader

Hi, I've on my Galaxy W still the original rom and I was going for a custom one.
Rooted it with Rootgenius, since other methods were not working.
Than I went for arco custom recovery but I'm not able to enter bootloader.
I mean by cmd after typing "adb reboot bootloader" phone correctly reboot and the confirmation screen appears but volume keys are not working, or the phone is anyway stuck on that screen.
I've tried to boot using volume_down+home+power but the phone keeps rebooting after samsung logo.
Any help? Thanks

Update, I'was able to install recovery through adb but home button is still not working so in CWM I can only go up and down.
Tried to use adb shell input keyevent 3 (that should be home button) but even if it works in normal state of the phone, in recovery it gives me error /sbin/sh: input: not found
Anybody?

Download mode freezes if you have the USB plugged in prior to selection. Initialize it before plugging the device in.
