I was wondering if anyone has already posted or knows about the bootloader/fastboot in the Desires?
Holding VolumeDown+Power enters the HBOOT mode :-
HBOOT
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
CLEAR STORAGE
SIMLOCK
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Selecting FASTBOOT enters the FASTBOOT mode :-
FASTBOOT
BOOTLOADER
REBOOT
REBOOT BOOTLOADER
POWER DOWN
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But what does RECOVERY/CLEAR STORAGE/SIMLOCK do?
And are there any other key combos?
recovery takes you into the recovery image (What you got to on the hero with Home + Power)
Simlock gives you the ability to modify the simlock status of the phone if you have the necessary software loaded on a card, or at least that's what it suggests from the text that comes up when you select it.
How long does the recovery take? I managed to seriously **** up my phone today. I got the message "com.htc.launcher has stopped working and needs to be shut down", or something like that.
I pressed the home, ok and back button at startup to enter the bootloader.
So, started going through the process of rooting and installing a custom ROM onto my HOX.
Got the phone rooted and downloaded the ROM, but unintentionally missed the step to install a custom restore e.g. ClockWork.
The issue I have now is that the phone starts up gets to the HTC One screen and sits there indefinitely.
So my issue is - I am unable to access either recovery or the bootloader to enter fastboot and clear the cache or start the process fresh and avoid this situation in the future.
Any help on the matter or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Switch phone off, then hold vol down button in and switch on (keep vol down pressed) you should then boot into bootloader mode and can flash recovery.img from there

while on the white HTC ONE screen, plug the USB to computer, try to ADB REBOOT BOOTLOADER or ADB REBOOT RECOVERY. That is IF the ADB can still detect your device, but I doubt that it couldn't.
Hello Friends!
My device is G23(HTC ONE X)
Have unlocked S-ON
Can you teach me how to enter recovery mode manually?
Certainly，It`s easy to enter recovery mode in “adb command ”。
But I need manually~
Thanks very much ！
Have you tried :
adb reboot recovery

Boot to the bootloader by holding the power button + volume down button. From there select Fastboot and then Recovery.
Hello. In order to test a custom recovery for LG K420n I have to enter fastboot mode and then use the "fastboot oem unlock" command to unlock bootloader. The problem is I cannot enter fastboot mode. I tried all the possible commands and button combinations (http://www.hardreset.info/devices/lg/lg-k10-lte/fastboot-mode/). Anyone can help?

the trick is to completely power down your device, then Hold down the volume up button (or down perhaps. i don't remember exactly) and then plug in the usb cable at the same time.. I figured it out when i was trying to root my device a few months ago and completely messed it up before using the lg pc bridge to recover it again

I tried that many times already. I need to unlock bootloader to enter fastboot but I can't enter it because of locked bootloader...loop.

No. Locked bootloader doesn't screw you. It's able to boot into bootloader/fastboot mode even if it's been locked.
-power on device presing (vol- & power) until logo image appear, release and press again power key by the second
-format device screen apper.. chose : format yes , confirm
-just appear android image formating.. press the 3 key alternatively
-then enter to stock recovery ; and u can chose fastboot or sideloader mode
* i dont know the exactly combination key press. but u must try a couple intents..

It might be easy in MTK but not in Qualcomm lol. We even tried "adb reboot recovery". It just shows a dead android symbol. But even randomly pressing those buttons doesn't allow us to go into recovery. MTK users have a upper hand lol.

Hi!
I have a LGK10 420DS (m216) MSM8916 Indian version I am unable to boot into bootloader or recovery by using adb / fastboot or by volume and power kay, as you are aware LG is not supporting any software update. I want to flash CustomROM and trying to unlock bootloader with different method but unable to enter in recovery, plz. some one can help out.
volume - whilst pluging usb into computer = fastboot mode
volume + whilst plugging = download mode
this works in new models, tested in a lg aristo 2
Its very complicated. My T705's power button was damaged by water. And i flashed Stock MM rom with odin. It was fine after flashing, the tablet boot into the os properly, work very well in the os.
But then i want to wipe the cache and data after that, so i was using the code"adb reboot to recovery" to get into recovery mode because my power button was broken. (I thought it can be using home button to select in recovery mode)
But the nightmare is i can't select anything in recovery mode which requiring a power button. So i can't wipe the cache, also can't select the option to reboot my tablet...... I've tried to hold both the volume down and home key to go to the download mode menu, and select restart by holding volume down, but it go to recovery again even after removing the battery, i think it's because the adb command.
And the strangest thing is i can't use my volume up button in download mode menu, so sadly i can't flash the rom again,:crying: but the volume up is working well in recovery and in the os......
Is there anyway to prevent the tablet to boot into the recovery again? I'm quite sure it's not the problem when flashing MM rom, the problem should be the adb command makes my tablet boot into recovery until i change the boot setting in recovery mode.

Holding vol down + home key can boot to the download mode menu.
But the device will automatically turn on after inserting the battery, no need to press any button, but the device only boot into recovery after i use the adb boot into recovery command.

If that's the case that means the power button is stuck on or you wouldn't be able to power on or boot to Download mode.
All you need to do is flash the stock firmware or twrp and it will reboot back to the OS.
Hopefully I've got your fix:
When you insert the battery your device boots up, if so, insert the battery and press the correct key combo while the splash screen from logo.bin is showing to boot into the download mode.
After that flash TWRP latest version with Odin. Then when your phone again boots to recovery, chose Reboot -> System to boot Android.
---
If the above isn't applicable and you can start Android somehow, I will download either FlashFire or MobileOdin to flash another recovery/ROM.

And don't know why the volume up doesn't work in the download mode menu, stuck in the download mode menu and can't select the option "continue" to go into the download mode

lot of problems can be fixed by samsung k300 tool ,disconect phone and start that tool and connect phone again and let the tool find the phone ,if found just click that icon and phone go to download mode and you can flash back stock firmware...that tool dont need adb enable just working usb cable ,i say working cant be fake...
