[Q] Why cant I get into Philz recovery - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, recently I just got a weird thing on my phone(N7100)
After reset to factory, I tried to get into Philz15 recovery, I turned off the phone, then hold volume up+home+power, it is supposed to boot into philz recovery but where I got into is downloading...page with a green adroid robot in the middle and two lines of words below it, "Downloading... Do not turn off the target!!" I know you can get into download page by holding volume down+home+power, but this page is a little bit different from that one, there is no small words at top left conner.
I don't know why and how I can get into recovery? Dose factory reset wipe the recovery function? Do I need to re-install Phillz15 again through odin?
Thanks

Defy stucks on Motorola logo

Guys, I had installed CM7 RC1 on my defy and it worked well.
So I entered in the recovery mode again, to install google apps, but when the recovery mode opened, my defy switched off and when I try to power on it again, it stuck on the Motorola logo.
I already tried to enter in the recovery mode, by pressing the power button + volume down, but it shows a triangle with a exclamation point inside and the android robot beside.
What I can do now?
I'm thinking in send it to a technical support, wil they fix it?
PS: I found some related topics, but they don't solve my problem.
PS2: sorry for my bad english (I'm from Brazil).

When you're on this state. Continue pressing both volume up/down together and you's be in stock recovery. Either you could perform full wipe or just go into bootloader by pressing volume up and power on then flash again.
Thank you!!
I went to the bootloader and then I flashed my defy with an old .sbf file that I have here, now it's all working!!

[Q] Stuck on HTC Logo after JB update

I've recently got the JB update so I installed it, or atleast tried. Because when I try to turn on my phone again it gets stuck on the HTC logo (White screen).
I think somehow my battery went down during the installation and now I can't access my phone anymore.
It's a clean phone, no costum ROM and I haven't rooted it in any way.
Is there a way to fix my problem? (Preferably withour rooting it.)
I tried holding the power and volume down buttons and then selecting recovery but that doesn't work as I just end up getting stuck on the black screen with the Red triangle.
Regards

Try going into HBOOT
Hold down Power button & volume down buttons together when the phone is switched off. This will take you into HBOOT.
Select Recovery using the volume down button and press power to select it.
Hopefully it is able to recover and re-flash the firmware.

That is exactly what I did, but I ended up on the black screen with the triangle (As stated in my first post).

Doh missed that bit Sorry to be of little help. Hopefully someone else can proffer a solution.
if it's an unrooted phone, HTC have been very good at fixing phones bricked during OTA in my experience (2 day turnaround)
When you see the phone with the red triangle before you want to enter the recovery press vol - and the power button.....or at least the vol - button. Can't recreate it as i am on a custom recovery. You will bypass the red triangle and will enter the recovery. Maybe a cache wipe wil do, or a factory reset !

I've tried the factory reset be just like the normal boot it gets stuck on the HTC logo.
Clearing the cache might work but doesn't your phone needs to be rooted for that?

I cant recall if wiping cache is an option in the stock recovery !?
One can erase cache using 'fastboot erase cache' after getting the phone to restart in fastboot mode. See here and go to the 'Try this first' section. Hope this helps.

Sounds like hboot version problem with JB upgrade, what version of HOX you have? what version of hboot? , maybe we can unlock your phone and recover the system with custom rom and then rollback to stock rom.

[Q] Root But No Recovery?

Guys, I just installed a pre-rooted image ( I9505XXUBMGA) and it's working fine, but I have no recovery of any kind? I tried installing CWM by flashing through Odin, but trying recovery keys means it just goes to a black screen and then reboots once you let the keys go and boots into the phone as per normal - also tried installing Goo manager and TWRP but no joy there either.
A bit of an oddity is that after installing the above, I installed ROM manager, which subsequently detects TWRP (even though it was uninstalled at this point) but selecting 'reboot to recovery' means it reboots into CWM!! I definitely can't get CWM through the recovery key combination though....
I'm pretty stuffed without any kind of recovery at all, so am not sure where to go from here? Help anyone?

Instead of holding power + volume the whole time, try letting go of the power button as soon as you feel it vibrate but keep the volume up pressed. Once you see the first splash screen with Recovery Booting in the upper left, you can go ahead and let go of the volume button as well.

Jeez, it's always the simplest of things!! Slightly different than my old S2 then...... thanks, bud, you saved me hours of hair pulling!! Any recommendations for an app that'll detect the CWM? I thought ROM manager would, but obviously not..... not in my case anyway.... not the end of the world, as long as CWM is working, that's the main thing!
Edit: Cancel the above, I got ROM Manager working......

Hold power+home+volume up and down buttons all at the same time until it's fully shutoff. Then quickly press the download mode button combo and reflash twrp

Thanks for the answer but i can't get the device to enter download mode. When i reboot the device (with any combination of keys) it says on top left corner of the screen "Recovery Booting..." and then it enters to teamwin screen loop, no matter what i press.

Same thing happening here. I have tried everything and can't get over it.
Does anyone knows how to fix this. I 'm afraid that my tablet is beyond repair

Wait till its completely dead. Plug it in and press the download mode button combo. Might be your last hope

Thanks for your answer but the same think happens.
Same appened here. After a factory reset its stucked on teamview boot loop.
Anyone got a solution??
Solved by flashing cf-auto-root with odin on download mode.
Just ran into this myself haha. The device is just soft-bricked and I managed to get it into Odin mode (Download). Will let it charge for a bit then either flash stock firmware with Odin or try flashing TWRP again to see if that fixes it
Edit: flashing the latest TWRP worked
Same thing is happening to me. I get stuck in the teamwin boot loop and cannot get into the download mode to fix with Odin.
This all came about after trying to factory wipe the device due to Google Play not working correctly. I'll repost if I have success...
Just recovered my tablet from the same issue. In order to get into download mode, I had to let the battery fully drain. Then, holding the home and vol down keys, I plugged it into the charger. Plugging the charger in while the battery was drained automatically powered it up. After I saw the download warning, I released the buttons and entered download mode as usual. Then I flashed the latest TWRP with Odin.
No other combination of booting or button pressing worked. Trying to enter download with home+vol down and pressing power did not work for me either.
Good luck and PM me if you have any questions about this. I hope I explained it correctly.

Possibly bricked HTC One M8

Ok,
Was installing the viper rom on my M8, and for some reason, now my phone is stuck in a boot loop. Obviously the install went pear shaped. But now I cant even boot the phone into recovery mode.
Boot sequence now is: Google lettering appears on screen, followed by green android with the blue spinning shape in its chest, then the green android with the red triangle and black exclamation mark appears and the whole thing loops again.
When plugged into the PC its not recognized so I cant use adb to boot into recovery or try load another rom/wipe cache etc.
I've tried all combinations of power button & volume up/down to break the boot sequence, no joy.
Any ideas how to resolve, or do I have a very expensive paper-weight?
Cheers,
sombaht
Rest assured, if the screen comes on, the phone isn't bricked.
Red triangle with exclamation point is stock recovery.
What was your exact sequence, in detail? From bootloader unlock, install custom recovery, etc.
Was the phone on Lollipop when you unlocked the bootloader?
To reboot into bootloader (not recovery, there is no button sequence to boot directly into recovery on this device):
1) Hold power and vol up for several seconds to force a reboot
2) The moment the screen goes black to reboot, let go of the buttons, and only hold vol down
3) Don't let go of vol down until you are on the bootloader screen
4) Failure to get into bootloader is virtually always user error. You either started pressing vol down too late, or let go of it too early. Just repeat until you get it right.
But from there, as mentioned it sounds like you are on stock recovery. You will probably need to flash TWRP again via fastboot in order to do much more.
Did you flash a custom recovery before you flashed the rom?? Can you boot in the bootloader mode (turn of Device completely- turn on again and hold volume down all the time.. then you should be in the bootloader)?
And your phone is not really bricked
Edit: damn to slow should not write on the phone

My friend, did you flash it using stock recovery or custom recovery? if you did flash it using stock recovery you will meet this kind of problems. I suggest you try power button and down if im not mistaken and go to hboot and fastboot usb and connect to adb, type fastboot devices in cmd if it detects your device then you can flash TWRP , find any kind of custom rom for M8 and flash it. I also assume your bootloader is unlocked and driver is installed in your PC.
Problem solved. Redpoint73's key press combination worked!
Cheers,
sombaht
