how to boot in recovery without using volume button

hello guys
i have a major problem i have installed a corrupted rom and i can't use my phone i need to boot in recovery but my volume button does not work
and my question is how i can boot recovery without using volume buttons
N.B:my phone is turned off
While it is switched on, if it is plugged into a computer, can you see it if you run the command 'adb devices'?
If so, try 'adb reboot recovery'

NOTHING ABOUT MY Problem
As it was mentioned above: with the phone turned off, if you plug the USB cable you should see it with 'adb devices' command. the LED should light (if I remember right in blue). if it does, run the command as mentioned above...
if not... I have no idea. Maybe you can contact with the developer of the ROM...

Yes, but from what I have seen it handles 'normal' scenarios.
Also, from my experience, he was trying to get the straight answer, without the need to read tens of pages...
The picture OP posted shows that either ADB is not installed or that he is trying to run it from an incorrect location. The guide that was posted has explanations for both of those problems.
thanks guys i have solved the problem
i have installed Android SDK
then i wrote in cmd
adb

Does it only boot into Recovery or does it flash it too?

No but it easily gets you into fastboot. Use the bootloader selection. Use adb to flash.

There is a Flashify thread in Android Development and Hacking. Maybe the developer can help you get the app working.

what do you mean by "stock recovery" did you use it to flash HTC recovery back onto the phone?
to get to hboot you can do it a couple of ways. the main way is to power down the device and hold vol - and power and keep holding it till you get into Hboot. it will act like a normal boot but once it gets to the splash screen it will soft boot then show hboot.
if you have adb set up you can just open a command prompt and type:
adb reboot-bootloader

I can't enter in recovery.
But I solved it.
I reflashed recovery via Adb in screen selection "recovery mode/bootloader/normal"
I'm very happy
Glad you made it.

No Download Mode Fix

Hi everyone, pls. help..
I'm stuck in a bootloop, not a hardware issue but due to flashing a .zip file.
After flashing some mod through a .zip file, my G4 stuck in a bootloop and it cannot enter into download mode anymore. I can only access fastboot mode which is pretty useless since I have a locked bootloader and my adb access wasn't turned on previously.
I have a 818p G4. Pls. help!

download mode enter ..?
Turn off your phone. Press volume down and plug in USB cable to computer. Keep pressing until download mode appears.
Then you can do whatever you want but mostly reflashing stock kdz.

Failed, no luck. I think something's broken in the loading files and I can't flash anything since I have a locked bootloader.
I can do a hard reset but after it boots, it's stuck at "Android starting apps."
Sent from my LG-E980 using Tapatalk
Why do you keep it bl locked? For warranty?
Then you can ask for a repair saying system files have been altered blah blah your phone isn't booting.

Search for Lg Flashtool 2014 . Get the kdZ în the folder of Lg flash tool . Start the software put it în Cs-emergency and then try to flash the kdz. This should work on bricked phone with no download mode

What model do you have?
For a locked bootloader, download mode is very important. Otherwise, you can't flash anything so it's already a hard bricked device.
Waiting for other suggestions..

Zenfone 2 CM13 (i need help please)

So, I tried to install CM13 on my zenfone 2 using a tethered custom recovery and now when I apply the update and restart, I am redirected to the bootloader menu. (cm13 and gapps install but when i restart i go back to reboot i go to bootloader)
If possible help me make it stay on cm13 or marshmallow
i have zenfone 2 1080p
I'm not 100 percent sure, but I believe you need installed TWRP. Tethered wont do. I could be wrong tho.

Is your bootloader unlocked?
I have the same problem, I followed a guide I found here on xda to unlock the bootloader of the ze550ml mm beta, problem is that, after using that guide and supposedly unlocking the bootloader, using the twrp i found in that guide i tried to flash the latest cm13 build for my device but it always goes to fastboot, also the only recovery that works is the twrp I found in that guide. Please help me fix this.

Do you have the advantage drivers and fastboot installed on your pc? Did you go into developer mode in your phone and turn on USB debugging? Lastly, did you authorize the pc to debug your phone? (the authorization screen that pops up the first time you send an add command to your phone)... It sounds like one of these issues are your problem
