I reallllllllly need your help here guys. I need to factory restore my Samsung Galaxy Tab, as the lock pattern was set to something that I do not know so I have zero access to the device. I have followed so many suggestions that my eyes crossed, well not literally but it sure did feel that way. lol:cyclops:
Here is what I've tried so far:
I have tried plugging in via Samsung Kies - no luck because I cannot unlock the device for the computer to recognize it.
I have tried using "Run" command on the computer and typing in a huge "command" that is supposed to over ride the lock pattern. That doesn't work because I can't get past the first line of the command without an alert starting with "path cannot be found."
I have tried holding the combination of "Vol Up+Power button" and receive the following alert :
"WARNING!! A custom OS can cause critical problems..etc"
I follow the steps that state to proceed and then I get "downloading" with the little Android guy, and then nothing happens. The other advice state I should be provided an option to "wipe" or "restore" but I do not get or see that option. I have tried different combinations but it doesn't help.
Please someone shed some light on this mystery, otherwise I have an overly large paper weight on my hands.
Cheers!

Hey,
If you just want to restore it you can just hold down volume up and power button. That should get you to the recovery where you can select wipe data/factory reset. Make sure you are hitting volume up as it seems that you are pressing volume down because you're going into download more. Hope this helps!

Thanks so much for your help!
So I doubled checked that I was in fact holding down the volume up button while holding the power button. I can confirm that it still does not work.... That is when I receive that alert about "WARNING!! a customer OS system may cause critical error" I tried the volume down button, and nothing at all happens.
Someone said there may be a pinhole reset option? Is this something you are aware of? The only thing I can see that looks like a pinhole could well be the mic.. don't want to destroy anything further lol.

Oh lol. You're posting in the wrong forum this is the Tab Pro forum so that's why I was assuming you have the home button.

Power it off

So here's my issue:
A few hours ago I decided that I wouldn't exchange my just traded Gnex at Sprint, and decided it was already time to unlock bl, root, and all that good stuff. So once I got around to that, as soon as I finished rooting, CWM gave me an option right before rebooting to remain persistent, or something like that, but knowing that I would install TWRP in a few minutes, I pressed no.
So I went on, installed TWRP through the goo.im app, waited about an hour doing junk on my phone, rebooted it for whatever reason, and went back to the goo.im app and pressed to reboot into recovery. When it did, I got the android with an exposed chest and a red triangle on it, which I assumed was TWRP not installing correctly. So I rebooted back into android, reinstalled TWRP, and this time went straight into recovery, and it worked. From here on in, I had already downloaded AOKP MR1-B6, and corresponding gapps, so went ahead and flashed that after wiping and all the normal stuff.
Now I'm here, I've been stuck at the Nexus "X" logo for a few minutes, did a battery pull, still nothing, and tried to go into recovery, and the phone will not go into recovery. Assuming I'm doing it correctly, I push the on button and vol up at the same time, and release power when the Google logo appears, and should release the vol up when recovery pops up, except I get the Nexus "X" instead.
This is a toroplus btw. Any help would be great lol.
You need to press the power button and BOTH volume up and down to get into recovery. Three buttons

When phone is completely turned off. Press and hold Vol Up + Power, this will get you into fastboot. Once here, press down twice, then press power.
You will now be in TWRP

I tried that for about 15 mins, and it didn't work. I then tried pressing down 3X instead of 2, and that got me into TWRP recovery. Just to make sure, I got out of recovery and rebooted. Once it started bootlooping again, I tried 2X, didn't work. Went through the procedure but down 3X again, all is well. Using version 2.5.0.0.

It should be 2x, only thing I can think of is if you are pressing the dwn button fast and it's not registering one of them. I know I have done that in the past.

You have to hold both volume up and down while powering up
Then when you get to fastboot press volume down twice and power

Holding both volumes in is for getting you into download mode, if you are looking to get into recovery from power off it's Vol Up + Power > Vol
Down 2x > Power.
I am currently looping at the LG loading screen. When I hold down up + power it doesn't put me into recovery mode. After a few moments it just turns the phone off. Anyone have any idea of what I can do now??
Volume up and power to fastboot screen, then volume down twice then power

Try holding volume down and power. If it takes you to stock (aosp style) recovery then you need to unlock with freegee
Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 4
AFschizoid I can't thank you enough for all the help you have been. I think I really did it this time though. Neither up or down brings me anywhere. The phone turns on, shows the LG logo and then after a bit the screen goes off. This happens if I do up, down, or both.
Hold the power button for LITERALLY like 2 minutes straight to let any residual power drain out after turning off. Then go ahead and hold vol down first and then press and hold power at the same time. If that doesn't bring you to stock recovery, repeat the power off then try with vol up. If that doesn't work, again, turn off and hold power button for a couple minutes to discharge then hold both volume buttons and plug in to your computer to see if download mode comes up

Thank you AFschizoid, trying it now. Will post results when im done.

Yup.....I really F-ed up this time. Tried it all three ways and no change... The odd thing is that I have had my ROM for two days and have been able to get into recovery before. I haven't made any changes. Lost signal earlier today and rebooted my phone to see if it would fix it, now it wont even start.
[EDIT] I think I know what did it. I tried to recover using FreeGee earlier when we were discussing the EFS. It failed but it probably messed up my unlock
So you can't even get download mode? Jeez. I don't know then lol

Think Sprint would fall for the new ZVC update bricked my phone?
Yeah if there was a bad flash of the SBL stack then you're sol. Download mode is in the SBL stack so if that didn't flash right then it's probably hard bricked

Thank you very much AFschizoid you have been a godsend!
Well... i found this in the teenybins thread... try it
For most soft bricks you will see a LG or Google logo and then a black screen. You can also still get into download mode. If you think download mode may not even work, connect phone to a Windows computer and check device manager... if the phone is detected in a "QHSUSB-DLOAD" then there's a good chance you're perm bricked. Otherwise.. you may just be a n00b and aren't doing download mode correctly.
Well the phone is detected but it just shows as a USB Composite Device. So if it is not hard bricked then maybe it just wont actually shut off. Maybe the screen is just blacking out and when I try the power button again it wakes it up. I can't imagine that I am holding the vol down and power button incorrectly. Only so many ways to do it Thank you for the find!
Are you leaving it plugged in when trying to turn it off? Because that won't work, it will keep booting into 'charge mode' so Unplug it, and retry everything

Hey xda community in need of some help
I found this beat up looking htc one past week.
Broken volume rocker, specifically the up key.
Problem is it has a pin (combo lock) so ill have to factory reset to use.
Well, i cant get it to initiate the reset rlwithout pressing vol up since there is no camera key.
Am i mistaken, is there a work around?
I was thinking there had to be some command from the computer to tell the phone to factory reset, or couldnt i just install a custom operating system?
Thanks team!
Actually if the phone is completely stock you should actually be holding volume down and power at the same time and that will boot you in to the bootloader. Which from there you can do a factory reset...... It should be listed right there on the screen.. Then use volume down to highlight factory reset and then hit the power button to select it and ............ profit!
---------- Post added at 10:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 AM ----------
Correction or rather edit.. This should all be done while the phone is off. With the phone off hold volume down then press power and keep holding them both at the same time and that will get you in to the bootloader where at that point you can perform a factory reset..

Orignally i could get it to come to the factory reset screen, but now it wont anymore rather it goes to "safe mode"
I havent seen this safe mode before and the cricket worker couldnt get around it either.
Im thinking just use something like cdma workshop but i need to put it diag mode dont i?
Can u do that without the passcode?
Thanks.
As the title says, I accidentally deleted my OS, and I can't access Recovery or Download mode. Any help?
So when you turn on the phone you just get a blank screen? When you hook it up to the computer with a USB cable what does it do? You might want to do some reading in my L900 unbrick thread (that no one has tested yet...grrr). You'll also need a Linux Live CD if you don't have a Linux machine. I've been waiting to test this out on an official L900 hard brick.

When I turn it on, it gets stuck at the Samsung screen.
You should still be able to access recovery by power off the device. Hold home button, volume down and power until it goes into recovery.

Let me know if you got your phone up and running, I don't think it is bricked. Could possibly help using Odin 3.07 with a .tar file of current ROM...4.1.2 or earlier.
Sorry just re read your post. So you ARE NOT able to get into stock/custom recovery by pressing (and holding) volume UP first, then Home button then Power? Or download mode by pressing (and holding) volume DOWN, then Home and Power? These have to be pressed and held in that order.

can someone tell me EXACTLY the proper sequence. it is exhausting not to succeed at something that apparently is so simple.

Try this (bit different ): Push Power + Volume down, when LG Logo appears release power button only for 1 sec but keep holding Volume down, then push power button again. Keep holding those 2 until you enter recovery(Hopefully).
tried
i tried exactly 20 times, pressing 2 buttons, releasing power then pressing it right after logo pops.
nothing doing less than 3 seconds after releasing, the led starts flashing at the begining of the load program and that's when i start crying

Can you turn on the device and enter your OS? If so and you just want to enter recovery, you can download an app that can make you boot into recovery like Quick Boot ( Reboot ) . You need to be rooted though. Sorry can't come up with anything else.
reason why i am asking
your idea is good, but i want to upgrade to android 5.0. = what happens is once you upgrade there is not a single app that lets boot into recovery that does not require root.
so i download the app, but since my android upgrade has erased the previous root, in urder to flash the superuser file app i must do it FROM RECOVERY
if i found an app that lets go into restore WITHOUT ROOT that would be fantastic. but i don't know of any,
if you do, please pass it along, that's all i need.
thanks, sincerelyh

If you want to upgrade to Official LG Stock Lollipop you can use LG Flash Tool 2014 and the Right KDZ for F400S, that way it will probably fix your "broken" Recovery. You don't have to enter Recovery for it, you have to enter Download mode ( Turn off device, connect usb to Computer then plug usb to G3 while pressing Volume UP button ).

whats proper way to enter recovery on LG G3 Korean F400S
If the OP is doing the right hardware key combination, and not getting recovery mode, is recovery (stock recovery) missing from his phone altogether? Is that a possible thing?

The steps for entering recovery for the F400 variants is DIFFERENT than the typical G3's out there.

Except the issue i have is i flashed twrp 3.0.2 and it is giving me boot certification error. Can you please take a backup of your current working TWRP of F400S and PLEASE!! share with me? I really need to flash it!
Will be really helpful.
