Does fastboot devices see the phone if you key combo into bootloader? Do a flash-all (minus -w so you at least can save user data) of whatever monthly security patch you were on before.

Are you sure about that. It is clear from your other post that you Re confusing fastboot and adb. adb works from a booted phone, while fastboot works from bootloader. Also, can you get to recovery? I highly doubt you are bricked, but there is definitely some confusion.
Turn off your Google Pixel 3 XL.
Press and hold the Power+Volume Down buttons until bootloader mode (image of an Android with Start above it) appears, then release.
Select Recovery mode. You can use the Volume buttons to cycle through the available options and the Power button to select. The device will flash the Google start screen momentarily and then restarts in Recovery mode.
If presented with an image of a broken Android with “No Command” printed on the screen, press and hold the Power button. Press the Volume Up button once. Then release the Power button.
From the Android Recovery screen, select Wipe data/factory reset.
Select Yes. Wait for several minutes for the factory data reset process to complete.
Select Reboot system now. Allow several minutes for the factory data reset and reboot processes to complete.
Set the phone up again.

"No command" is normal. It is the power and volume key combo from there that actually get you into the recovery menu. That combo timing can be a little tricky. Power, then quickly press and release volume up then release power. You should then see the recovery menu. You might even see your phone with adb devices and have the ability to sideload an OTA (to save user data), but given your current situation I think a factory reset is best,

Not sure what you mean by running flash-all in sideload (I assume you ran adb sideload from recovery or flash-all from bootloader), but I'm glad you are up and running.

hey guys,
i was bored and flashed a .zip on my phone and now I'm no longer bored. Long story, short... I'm booted into the os (almost) with constant errors popping up. I can't get the power button down for 10 seconds to reboot phone and i want to get back to recovery to flash by back up. How can I use terminal (mac) to force back into recovery if phone is not in mode for adb to recognize phone?
Thanks in advance.
Try hold power button + volume up to force reboot. Once the screen goes black release those buttons and hold volume down button to go to hboot
Thanks for your reply. Seems the power + volume is not be recognized. Is there a way with fastboot or adb?
Otherwise, I guess I wait until power drain.

Power + Volume Up should work. But as you asked for adb/fastboot
1) "adb devices" to check if device is recognized
2) "abd reboot bootloader" so the phone reboots into bootloader
3) go to recovery and try a reflash

This should always work as long as the screen is on. It might take 10 seconds or more, so you may not be holding the buttons long enough.
Alternately, you can use:
adb reboot bootloader
or
adb reboot recovery
There is no required more for adb commands, as long as the screen is on. Fastboot on the other hand, requires the phone to be in fastboot mode.
What did you flash? Was it a ROM, and if so did you do a full wipe (data, cache and Dalvik) before flashing?
Thanks for all the replies. It finally died and I was able to jump back into recovery. I was trying to flash a .zip (one+ one theme) to my rom and some things about it (audiofx) was not liked. I guess adb could not recognize the phone since it was basically booted into the os. I just thought there was a way to still use adb or fast boot to push it into recovery. I did not get to try adb reboot boot loader, but would adb recognize phone even with this command?

Hello everyone.
I am trying to get into the bootloader, so i will be able to use fastboot commands.
Prior to post here i made a thread in the [HELP THREAD] but unfortunately since the person that tried to help me did not had this device, he couldn't help me, thus i'm posting here
So, first i tried to get into the bootloader by pressing the physical keys:
if power button and both volume keys are pressed i get into Android System Recovery(3e).
if power button and volume down key are pressed i get into meta mode.
if power button and volume up key are pressed i get into factory mode, which is entirly in chinese.
in all 3 occations, fastboot devices command did not reply anything....
Now the device is recognized by adb (i made the udev rule for it), all commands are working as should except one.
all except one: "adb reboot-bootloader" or "adb reboot bootloader" or "adb reboot fastboot" do not do anything. they just reboot the device into android os.
even "adb reboot recovery" works correctly...
Lenovo S820 is a new device. it was released in 2013, is it possible that it doesn't have proper fastboot mode??? or is it possible that it needs to be unblocked in some way???
What should i do?
P.S.
Android system recovery <3e> options are:
reboot system now
apply update from ADB
apply update from sdcard
apply update from sdcard2
apply update from cache
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
in Meta mode just get this: Have been in meta mode, long press the power button and the normal boot.
factory mode (which is completely in chinese) has 8 options.
-EDIT-
I am 100% sure that i found the translations of the 8 options of the factory mode:
Manual Test
Auto Test
Item Test
Test Report
Debug Test
Clear eMMC
Version
Reboot
Any help at all???
What did i do wrong? why no one is replying?
Does the need for the same device is so great???
Isn't it a bit of generic question at all???
I don't need a -like- guide how to do it, i just need some infos, tips and guidance.
I am new to android os, i don't even know what to search/look for, so i can start solving this issue...
HELP!
I need somebody!

My s820 is not broken. it's working like a charm.
my problem is that i can't get into the bootloader.
Is there a chance that the bootloader is blocked?
I also, honestly, do not understand why no-one is replying, i am not asking for a how-to guide, just for some tips/infos so i can start investigating how to get into the bootloader....

I tried hold power button and press volume up button but its doesn't work.
I also can't access to recovery mode too.

Before this problem happen I get in to recovery mode try to wipe cache but i miss press and i selected "apply update from adb"
and that time my phone doesn't connected with PC. I don't know what to do so I turn off my phone.
then I open recovery mode again and select wipe cache then I go out to take a bath.
I came back and see my phone is off so I boot it.
It's booting about 2-3 mins and nothing happen so i go to recovery mode again but this time they have problem like i explain before(blink error message that can't pass by hold power button and press volume up button)
So anyone have a solution for my problem. please I really need your help!
Sorry for my bad english
Hi,
I had this when I went to wipe my system cache and it failed. Your best bet, especially if you can't get into recovery is to fastboot flash the recovery again if you have an unlocked bootloader.
If you don't you'll want to unlcok the bootloader and follow the instructions for using ADB if you're new to it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/asus-zenfone-2-flashing-recovery-mode-t3096596

If you hold volume down and power, it should go to bootloader first, then you have your choices for recovery....Get it to the bootloader screen, then run the commands to unlock it...
Could you please tell me everything step by step on how to cure my phone?
I'm very noob.
okay thank you.
I can start it now
THANKS!!!!!!!
p.s. i use fastboot erase cache code

Hey I'm having the same problem, how'd you get the computer to recognize that the phone was plugged in? My computer does not recognize that the phone is on when I have the flashing error screen, so ADB doesn't recognize that there is a device connected.
Hi,
I had the exact same problem, and I managed to boot up again thanks to you!
What I did :
Install ADB and Drivers
Boot my phone into Fastboot (Power+Volume Up at boot, keeping VolumeUp button pressed while booting). Don't go into any menu (do not select recovery or so). At this point your computer should recognize your Android phone when you plug it in through USB.
Open up a cmd with admin rights, navigate to adb install path by typing : cd C:\adb
Then type : fastboot erase cache
It should trigger an action on your device, and the prompt should display sth like "Cache successfully erased" (I don't remember exactly)
Finally type : fastboot reboot, press volume up while booting again, and access Recovery like usual!
Now you can try wiping your partition cache again.
Worked like a charm for me! Thanks a lot
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.

I'm having the same issue today, try this. I will be performing the same thing today and will update you on how I do.
EDIT: Didn't see that you said your volume doesn't work. Whoops. There might be a way to reboot into ADB recovery. Try putting your device into Developer Mode, turn on Advanced Reboot, and when you hold down the power, press "Reboot" and then "Bootloader". Then just use ADB.

Go and turn on Advanced restart, click bootloader once holding the power button when the device is on then proceed to go to fastboot and type in the command
"fastboot oem lock"
then:
"fastboot erase userdata"
You will lose all your data (I think).
I need to do this to unlock bootloader but power button not working to select option any ideas plz?
