Hello Everyone,
So Redmi Note 8 was working fine. For the last few days randomly the Volume Icon Appears on the screen and doesn't go away until I press volume down. I think this issue is related to the Volume Up Button. sometimes it doesn't work.
A day ago it got an update so I tried to update it.. after download it restarted and was loading .. got stuck on 4.99% for a while then restarted itself into the recovery menu. no matter how many times I tried to reboot.. it just comes back to it..
after a while when I tried to reboot while holding down the volume down and the power button it rebooted. and was fine but still had the volume issue..
just a few mins ago it restarted and now again its stuck on the recovery menu..
I don't mind about data already backed up when it booted.
i don't really need it to be rooted.
Just want it to work.. also having a custom recovery is fine.
so what do I do for that?? I was looking through guides everything I found required enabling bootloader but my phone won't boot so no way to do that.. at least I don't know of any method.
if anyone can help me with it.. i will really appreciate it..
Thank you ^^
Edit: Its on a Loop now.. Stay on Recovery Menu for a few mins then restarts and goes back into the recovery menu. Been doing it over and over again.
Update:
I figured out the issue.. it was the volume button.. the volume up button was not working as mentioned.. but it seems it was stuck at the volume up position.. That was the reason why I had the Volume notification on screen all the time... and the reason why it kept going back to the recovery menu..
I replaced the Volume Button and now everything is good.
Thanks Everyone ^_^
Mark the thread "[SOLVED]" then?

I upgraded from 2.51.1 to 3.4.2-117, and the phone lags, seems to me that it is because of the google sync. Someone posted the very same problem and said that factory reset solved his problem.
My problem is that the phone does not do factory reset, in Privacy I press the erase button and nothing happens.
I tried to boot into recovery, but I can't get into it. The droid comes up but upon touching the lower right corner nothing happens.
When i try to boot with vol up and down same time, the phone boots into safe mode.
How shall I get into recovery so I could do a wipe? The phone is basically unuseable now because of the lags and freezes
Hey mate! Don't give up. When you see the droid in the center of the lcd just push vol+ and vol- at once. You'll get into recovery mode. )))
thx dude, i figured it out "accidentaly"
Everyone was writing on the net that the recovery boot is up and down the same time instead of the old method of power & volume -.
So, when I got to the droid, started to push every possible button in every possible variation and I got in.
since then I learned that the vol up and down is after power & vol -, not instead.
Okay, so for the past couple of days I have been having problems and I was wondering if anyone can help. I rooted my phone with Cyanoginger and it had been working fine for the last few months. I tried to turn my phone on yesterday and it simply vibrated and no screen came on. I decided to charge it and try again today. I turned it on and the screen got stuck on the mytouch logo. For the next times i tried to reboot it, this happened again, before it stopped showing anything on the screen all together. I tried to access the boot menu by pressing volume down then power with no result. Not even a vibrate from the phone. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to fix the phone, or if I should just give up on it.
Thanks a lot, Kevin.
Try pressing back+power to reach the bootloader, then from there get into recovery menu and load clockwork mod recovery.
Then flash cyanoginger again without wiping and then just wipe cache and dalvick-cache
Should boot up after 5-15 min
But did you flash a radio or spl/hboot or try s-off but it failed?
back+power didn't work. and for the last thing you said i have no clue what you are trying to say, so if you could please explain it a little better I might understand. thanks, Kevin.
lol that's because its not back+power
LMAO
Do this..
Turn your phone on by pressing the following:
Power+Volume DOWN+Camera button.
You will enter a screen, now select recovery by using the VOLUME and POWER keys and enjoy.
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.
i changed the runtime and now its stuck on sory nfc has stoped working and has 2 option dont send and send and whatever i do it stays there is there ayway i can fix it please im realy realy stressed out i think i bricked it or something please help me out ill realy apreciate it is it bricked . i didnt bought it with warranty so lease help me out here
Wow, that is a really long sentence!
Seriously, if the screen comes on, its not bricked.
But you also haven't provided enough info. Is the phone modded, or stock. And if modded, is it running a custom ROM, s-off or s-on?
I had a problem with the phone not booting after switching to ART. I wiped cached and rebooted, and it started up fine.
its stocked man had the phone for only 3 days now
Boot into recovery, wipe cache and reboot.
how can i boot into recovery by pressign and holding volume up and power? i did that already and it restarted optimized apps again for like 10 minutes and got stuck in the same error again would realy apreciate some help
please help guys
Press and hold Volume up + Power for 10seconds, when the screen goes dark, immediately press volume down + power. That'll take you into bootloader.

That button combo just forces a reboot.
Do as suggested in the last response. Once in bootloader, use vol keys to highlight recovery, and power button to select. Once you see the red triangle (stock recovery screen) hit power + vol to show the recovery menu. There you will see an option to wipe cache.
My Pixel C is fully changed but the screen is black and won't display anything at all. I know it is on because I can take screenshots with the hardware button and hear the noise. I can also see it on Android Device Manager. I have long pressed with all the different button combinations. It reboots but the screen shows NOTHING (not even the Google boot logo).
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
It is stock and not rooted but subscribed to the Beta channel.
I has this problem today as well and I'm on beta as well. I had to press the volume down button as well as the power button to get into recovery mode and rebooted from there. I can only assume it's something to do with the beta as I have not had this before I updated to O beta.

I didn't elect to install O. I didn't see the update notification in the last couple weeks before it had this problem.
I can't get to recovery because the screen is off. How did you do it? Or were you able to see the screen after holding the volume down button as well as the power button to get into recovery mode?
I had to hold both buttons down for about 30 secs and then I got into recovery mode. From there I just restarted the device.

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, that is not working. I have tried holding for 60 seconds just to be sure. It is so strange!
Not sure what it is in that case. Have you tried the volume up button to get fast boot mode?
I am having this problem aswel, on the android O beta. I can not use it and I can not see the bootloader when holding down power + volume down
edit: resolved the issue by trying button combinations until it booted (took around 2 hours total with time of disappointment in between)
edit2: oh my ****ing god it booted correctly (showed bootloader warning + bootlogo + lockscreen) but it locked and now it's black again!
edit3: was able to get into fastboot after 3 tries so i'm flashing the factory image right now (7.1.2)
edit4: flashed 7.1.2 factory image and was able to fastboot boot into twrp but still no display.
edit5: i am now troubleshooting i checked all the files in /sys/devices/50000000.host1x/54400000.dsi/54400000.dsi.0/backlight/lpm102a188a-backlight/ they all indicate 255 which is 100% anyone have any ideas?
final edit: i fixed it by trying a **** ton of times
Hello,
Can you tell what have you do to repair the pixel? Have the same issues after Oreo update :/
Anyone found a way to fix permanently? Mine started doing it around Christmas 2018, and it takes more and more tries every time (to ctrl-down power) and at some point it works... Then all stays fine until I close the lid or put it to seep.
Did someone reinstalled completly the os and got a success? I am not rooted, this started when It tried (and failed) to install 8.1 (update of oreo).
