e986 recovery which buttons?

Hello,
I rooted my new e986 and installed cwm succesfully.
Now i dont know which button combination are required to boot into the recovery.
The only way i got into the cwm is through the rom manager. (Extra installed it to test if the recovery works)
So before i install cm10.2 i wanted to know how to boot into the cwm to restore my image if something goes wrong.
On my s3 and xperia z i hadnt problems with booting the recovery.
Odin89
edit: its working now. After several tries with Power + Vol Up + Home it works sometimes

CWM Manual keys
Yes, booting into the recovery can be a bit touchy with CWM. Try to release the keys JUST as soon as the first LG disappears from the screen and you should get recovery about 90% of the time...

Note 2 Home Button Not Working, Cannot Reboot To Recovery and Stuck On No Root

Hello,
Can anyone help me?
My home button is broken and I cannot reboot to recovery.
I fully wiped my phone and forgot to flash the SuperSU.zip after flashing SlimKat.
Now, I'm stuck with no root and cannot go to recovery because my home button is broken.

Since you are ready to reset your phone(assuming you have backed up everything), you can try
1.Booting to recovery with phone turned off by the 3 combination keys(lol, read that somewhere off internet) and not just directly.
2.Flashing 4.2.2 again(from sammobile.com) or some other trusted site. And reflashing cwm recovery.
3.Try rooting it ?
4.Try intalling some app like GooManager from playstore to try to enter recovery mode.
May i know which recovery file you flashed? Flashing a more newer/alternative recovery may help.

Did you manage to fix this. Same thing happening to me.. Flashing recovery from Odin does not work.. Factory reset does not work either. Tried to enter recovery mode.. That does not work as well.. In all everything results in normal boot..
Can any one help?

i have observed that u need to do factory reset after flashing a rom.
1. flash stock rom, i would highly recommend using android v4.1.2 because 4.2. of i9082 is little buggy. link to stock rom- http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/GT-I9082/
2. After first boot, do a FACTORY RESET either through settings or using stock 3e recovery, both works
3. flash twrp 2.8.6, via odin, (DO NOT RENAME THE .TAR FILE) link to recovery- https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxygrandduos.html
I have tested this recovery on i9082
if i helped you someway, HIT 'THANKS' button

Download Odin and PhilZ recovery/kernel for i9082. Flash kernel/recovery via Odin (you must be in download mode, use Volume Down + Home Button + Power Button combo for this) and you should have recovery. After this, you can flash any other recovery/rom if you want.
P.S. Don't forget to do Nandroid Backup.

Flashing Recovery again with Odin.
Don't tick the 'Auto reboot' and hit start button.
Wait until it shows pass messages.
Disconnect device from PC.
Remove battery and insert after 5 secs.
Press 'Volume Up+Home+Power'.
Thats it!!

Try flashing back to stock rom through LG support tool and then try to root it and unlock the bootloader once again. Because it should work if you do it the right way

If you tried to install a custom ROM, you must have a recovery installed (TWRP ou CWM). Try to restart your phone with Volume Up + Power, when you sense a little vibration release the two buttons and press then again (keep pressed). In the screen, you can select Recovery with the volume keys, and power to select.

Can't wipe data on CWM

I am running android 4.2.2 on my Samsung Galaxy Grand Duo
I have recently rooted my phone with superSU
And I am trying to install an unofficial version of lollipop 5.1.1
When I press Volume Up + Home + Power to get into CWM it says "Unknown Command" and takes me to the default recovery menu.
I can get into CWM by putting my phone in download mode and flashing it with ODIN temponarly.
And when i go to wipe data on CWM, it doesn't say yes anywhere, it just shows 5 no's
I have tried scrolling up and down with the volume keys but had no luck.
What im looking for is just how do i get the no's to say yes
Can anyone please help me quickly?
I have rooted many phones but never worked with CWM or custom ROMS
Thanks
-Niko

Flash custom recovery using odin and when the phone is done and restarts IMMEDIATELY press vol up+home to enter recovery. Otherwise custom recovery wont be installed
use TWRP, way better than CWM.
