Bootloader Issue - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am having a problem with my phone. I installed CM 11 on it via TWRP 2.6.3 but for some reason the flash didn't workout well and the phone was stuck in the boot animation. The problem is now I am not able to access bootloader because of a faulty vol down button. Before it would work some time, but now have tried it several times but can't do any thing. It just recognizes the power button press and turns the phone on and it gets stuck in bootloader. How do I get in recover to solve this problem.
Any advice?

Press and hold back button + power. That will boot into fastboot then use volume up to navigate

try to keep volume down button

[Q] A bootloop without the possibility of getting to download mode?!?

I am not a total noob. I have always done my research and I am well versed with the procedures but this has me stumped. About six months before I had installed Omega ROM (told you i wasn't a noob) and things were fine and dandy. I was running today and bam! my phone just enters into a bootloop (lost my data on endomondo too). But hey! I am an expert right? or so i think to myself and I try getting into the recovery mode / download mode. I press the volume down, power and home button. The warning comes up and all that i have to do now is to press the volume up key right? wrong!! Inspite of pressing the volume up key the bootloop continues. I dont know what i am doing wrong. I am sure it is a really silly thing but i am not able to figure it out myself. I read the posts and all of them deal with other issues. Can someone help me?
Can someone check this up for me? Switch off your phone and try going into the recovery mode by pressing only the vol. down button and the home button pressed together. If it does not show the warning screen prior to the recovery mode then it would mean that my power button is malfunctioning. It would take just two minutes of your time. Please post your results here. Please.
If you press just the volume down and home button not a lot happens not the warning screen anyway. When I boot into recovery I have to wait for the Samsung logo to appear twice or it just reboots. Might be worth pressing all 3 buttons and wait for the 3rd restart before letting go
Edit
It's volume up home and power for recovery if you get download mode and volume up the phone just reboots hence why you go back to bootloop

The problem is solved. It turned out that it was not a boot loop after all. The power button got pressed and was stuck in that state thus causing repeated reboots. It was by pressing the volume down and home button without pressing the power button that i figured out that the power button was stuck. So i took out the screws and adjusted the band slightly and now alls well.

Well if those didn't solve your problem what I did was let my M8 run out of battery and then plugged it into my computer holding power+volume down and that allowed me to get into the bootloader and then into fastboot. I then erased the cache and entered recovery where I had a backup ready.
I'm experiencing the same problem, and still working on solving it. But for those who are stuck in the boot screen and need to shut off their phone so that they can boot up into recovery (power + vol down), hold down BOTH volume buttons and the power button and the phone will shut off in a few seconds. I couldn't find this anywhere and was getting annoyed waiting for the juice to run out so I tried a few things and this worked.
edit: turns out it's just volume UP and power to 'battery pull' the phone, not both, although that will work because you're pushing on up

You can also try this if you're not willing to wait for the battery to drain. I also ran into that very same problem, being stuck on the htc splash screen.. However this is how I fixed it. Like one of the posters above i too held the volume button up while at the same time holding down the power button. My HTC One M8 would just reboot back to the splash screen. So, i went through all of the steps above again but this time as the screen went off still holding the power button down. I immediately slid my finger from volume up to down. I continued holding it in the volume down position until the boot loader come up. I selected recovery from there and did a cache wipe and restored a NAND backup. I hope this helps someone.
Found a pretty easy fix
It's a somewhat common problem as I can tell,w hen the device stops on the splash screen (where it says "POWERED by Android") ,, and it has a pretty easy fix, which does not require drain the battery or erase the cache from ADB and so on ! What you do is, you hold down Volume UP + Power Button and keep it pressed till the device will re-restart itself and will boot in to the system (unless you completely f-ed up your system).
Good luck
I have found a way

Press and hold the Volume Up key and the Power button until you see a black screen. As soon as you see it press the Volume Down key and the Power button at the same time. This should get you to your bootloader.

Stuck on samsung biot screen.

Ok so my Tab S is stuck on the 2nd booting screen, I can't boot into anything. Only thing that i've managed was to restart it, but then it's still stuck. This happend becouse I was stupied enough to download an app (Fontster) that said it could make problems on non aosp roms. The only thing that I can think of is to weit until the battery dies and try getting it into recovery then. It was on 75ish% when this happend, so it won't die "soon". I've tried googleing it but nothing have helped. Would really appreciate help. Thanks in advance
Edit. I've gotten into recovery mode
You have TWRP??
To get into recovery :
Hold POWER +VOL DOWN +HOME. Wait until it restarts then immediately change to VOL UP whilst still holding the other buttons until recovery boots.

Bricked Nokia N1

Hello, i have bought a nokia n1 with the chinese firmware and i have followed this tutorial for install the taiwan firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/noki...t3083115/page4 #39 .
When i have reboot my tablet after entered this command " dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/pci/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/by-name/system (/pci/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0 ", my tablet does'nt boot and stuck at powered by android. I can have adb and fastboot command but i don't know how i can restore my tablet. Anyone can help me ?
Sorry for my bad english and thanks you
If you have ADB access, you can run:
adb reboot recovery
After that you could reinstall using ADB sideload and this file : http://ota-service.oss.fc811.com/upl...&sn=L123456789
My N1 won't give me adb access, so I'm in a worse state than you
Hello i have resolve the problem by sideload the full rom (A5CN507) but i have don't use adb for boot into the bootloader i have press the volume down + power button and then go to recovery.

Thanks for mentioning. I have tried with volume down + power hundreds of times and my device refuses to go into bootloader. =/
I'm sure I could unbrick the same way you were able to, if i could just get into bootloader one time!

I had some trouble booting straight to the bootloader as well.
I don't know if this helps but anyway: After you power off the device, press and hold the power and vol- buttons. When you see the "Powered by Android" logo, let go of the power button but keep holding the vol- button. The tablet should boot into bootloader mode. I initially made the mistake of holding both buttons the whole time.

Thanks for the tip, i will try that. When I last tried, if I held any button at all, the tablet would never show the "powered by android" screen. It would only show it right after i released all buttons.

Just upgraded to latest Magisk from the App, now stuck at boot screen HELP!

Reboot to EDL/BROM (search for right key combination) and reflash ROM using SP Flash Tool. Then flash latest Magisk
I have let the phone run down battery, pressed vol up and power, but still nothing.

I have already tried key combinations, but still the same.
@hainguyenthao helped me out. Showed me how to get into downlaod mode without pressing power and vol down!
Let the phone power down, leave it for 30 mins or so. then press vol up and vol down and insert USB cable.
OR if phone is in bootloop, press vol down and power till phone reboots, then VERY quickly hold down vol up and vol down and plug in USB cable
Dude, To put device in download mode - Press Volume Up & then Press Volume Down (Keep holding both) and connect device to PC with USB cable.
But for your problem you have to put your device in recovery mode then flash ROM. Still the problem continues, you can try this download link
I've the same problem with my Note 10+... Was on Dr. Ketan Rom and update with magisk app ends in a boot loop, I couldn't break -.-
@vinokirk could you solve the problem?
Edit: Thanks to @starpandi2004 - on the first try I can break the bootloop, but just to the first screen. After choosing download mode, it comes bootloop again -.-
Is it worth to try to lock bootloader and factory reset phone? What will happen? Is the original rom somewhere packed and would be installed again by factory reset?

Bro what about TWRP recovery? can you able access it...
if yes then dirty flash KETAN ROM..it will solve...
just had same same problem.
i connected mine to the pc and use power+up volume until twrp appeear and them restores from last backup
I got the simplest solution for this issue!
If u r stuck on Samsung logo, then try this method.
Turn off the phone by pressing vol down and power button. Once the phone is shut down, release and press again the vol down and power button when u see Samsung note 10 plus screen, then release the power button but keep pressing vol down. Once u see the "Samsung" logo, immediately release the vol down button and quickly press vol up button.
This will boot up without any problem!
