try this.
to get into download mode,
leave your phone on and connect to pc
press and hold both volume buttons
press and hold power button till OG's screen goes black black (don't let go volume buttons yet)
release power button (still hold volume buttons)
your OG should turn back on by itself in my experience.
and see if you can get into download mode.
This method took me to download mode when I soft bricked my OG.
Good luck!
P.s. same way for fast boot except it uses only volume down button.

what about download mode?
if you can get into download mode, flash ZVB stock via LGNPST.

Updated to 4.22.651.2 rooted, and now I can't get to recovery or bootloader! I power down the phone and then hold the power button and volume down and nothing happens! When I release the power button it boots instantly! Whats going on?????
SD no functioning.... I think
Either turn off fastboot in settings-applications
or
hold down the power button and instead of power off, use reboot and start holding down vol down as soon as the screen turns off.

Hi guys,
I updated to JB on my rooted S3 when it first came out a couple months ago. Everything was fine until a few days ago, when all of a sudden it turned off on its own. Since then the phone won't power on, it seems to always restart itself at the Samsung boot screen. I tried to do a factory reset, but the phone still restarts itself. Tried to put into download mode, no go either. Any idea on what I could do to fix it?
Thanks!
So I'm trying to mess with the phone again. I insert the battery and press the on button. The Samsung logo briefly flashes then the Samsung Galaxy SIII screen shows up. Then no response after that. The blue/purple Samsung logo used to show up and freeze, but now it doesn't even get to that point. As I try to power up again, there's no response until I take out/put in the battery again
If you are getting to a boot screen, it is only a soft brick. Do you know how to put your phone back onto stock rom?
To get into download mode
1. pull the battery, put it back.
2.hold power volume down and home key at the same time.
3.when your phone vibrates, let go of the power button.
4.when a screen comes up, let go of all buttons.

I tried that. But the phone just restarts itself as soon as the screen come up
Press the up botton to get into the download screen. You are holding the home and down too long. Release it right before you see the screen and press volume up to get to download mode.

If you still have a screen, it means you will be able to get to dl mode. Look it up to make sure you are doing it properly.

I was in the process of rooting my Samsung S3 with Odin3, everything was going well, I was following the steps from theunlokr.com .. it looked like all the processes were done but at the end the screen never came on. I keep pressing the power button still don’t turn on. I hold the 3 buttons at the same time (Vol Up+Home+Power) nothing happen.
I press the on/off button and it plays the start up ring shows the Samsung logo and then it goes black.
Can anyone help please, I hope I can fix it ASAP, need my phone for work. Can't understand what went wrong.
Need your help
Thank you!!
First mistake was using a site other than XDA to root your phone. Pull the battery and hold the power putton for about ten seconds. Put the battery back in, hold the down volume button + the home button + the power button until you feel it vibrate and then let go of the power button while holding the home and volume down buttons. It should go into download mode and ask you to confirm by pressing the up volume button. If this works then using Odin on the computer to flash back to stock rooted.

Some solid ROMs include: CNA (codenameandroid), Kyan, CM.
I used to use BlackJelly as my daily-driver, but couldn't do without the AllShareCast functionality, so I'm back to stock-rooted, until I find a ROM that both looks awesome and supports AllShareCast.
Hi.
In an attempt to revert my htc one x back to stock rom., I am now in a situation where I cannot enter fastboot.
I have tried al sort of combinations of power+vol down but it does not enter fastboot.
It comes to the white htc splash screen and then enters the old cyanogen mod boot screen with animation. That is where it is stuck.
Any suggestions?
Yeah keep the buttons pressed Untill you see the bootloader
Power + vol down is good. Just keep them pressed and do not let go of them. Make sure you press the volume button properly
Hi Hoff.
Thats what I am doing but it does not enter fastboot at any point.

Then your are not pushing right. Hold all buttons in and keep them pushed even after reboot of the phone !
Could not get it to work.
Ended with discharging the phone so it turned off. Then held the vol+down when powering up again.
Don't understand why the normal method did not work

You deserve a cookie sir
as to the question, connect to pc, open adb (surely you must be having it since you have a phone and an acoount on xda )
then typefastboot devices. this will ensure that you've connected your phone to the pc, and that all drivers are correctly installed. try more than one time, even if it doesn't work.
next, type adb reboot bootloader. this will get you to the white screen. you'll be navigating with volume keys, and confirming with power. I think that your volume buttons are malfunctioning.
hello everyone,
Whats the easy way to manually go to Recovery Mode?
i tried vol up and power together but nothing shows up except a blinking color home button.
Do i need to press the home button?
Thanks

Press vol up and power until the lg logo and the boot error message (that appears on top left corner) come up, release power button but keep holding vol up until cwm appears.

Note: My friends phone has a lot of files and he forgot the pin and its phone is crack and unresponsive screen.

I have E988, and usually what i do to be able to get into recovery would be pressing both power and volume up button at the same time till the first LG logo appears and disappears. Then I release the power button, after which I do combinations of <2 down button presses then press the power button>, up until after the second LG logo appears and disappears, then recovery finally shows up. However I'm not sure about stock recovery though as i have cwm

Its kinda confusing. I tried your method but I only get a black screen and a blinking LED home button when I press the vol down and power together.
