I was in recovery and suddenly my phone died while i was installing Cyanogenmod 10.1.
Then i tried to charge the battery and boot into fastboot by holding +/- volume and power buuton, but the phone would just boot normally.
The installation of Cyanogenmod 10.1 had not completed, so i was stuck at the Google sign.
Is there a way to get into fastboot-download mode or in recovery?

Have a read here.
Hold volume up and volume down, and then press and hold power.
I did it but again it took me to the Google sign.
Same problem

Have you found any answer to this problem?

are you pressing and holding both vol up and down and THEN pressing the power button and continuing to hold the vol buttons?

'adb reboot bootloader'
Just thought i 'd mention; STOP NECROBUMPING, this damn thread was abandoned in January.
If only at least someone was doing their "jobs".

I know the command sir, im just asking the other user if he can go in fastboot via adb.
At the other hand, no problem from bumping old thread with same subject. It is better than open a new thread

why i cant go to fastboot? i hold the volume down button and turn on the device but nothing happens. i did it a couple of times but nothing happens.
is there a possibility that the bootloader is locked? but i did many search about that but i found nothing
fastboot
im pretty sure you have to turn fastboot OFF in settings. otherwise you have to take the battery out everytime you want to boot into fastboot mode. i just restart my phone with fastboot turned off and hold volume down untill you see the boot animation.

First of all your phone has to be rooted....then install the following app from playstore ,it will give you freedom to directly reboot in recovery mode and also an option for fast reboot or boot in bootloader or fast switch off

Hi guys. Im pretty experienced with android but this one has me stumped. My buddies brother has a stock/non-rooted optimus g e971 on Rogers. He changed his screen lock password and forgot what it is. Of course he never register a Gmail account so I can't recover that way. I figure no problem. Shut down, pwr+vol down to factory reset. Well nope doesn't work. It flashes the lg logo twice then boots like normal.
Ok so I figure I'll just put it in download mode/fast boot to do the factory reset. Tried pwr+vol up. Nope. Vol up+vol down+pwr. Nope. Vol up+vol down and plug usb+pwr. Nope. It just flashed the lg logo twice then boots like normal. I've tried multiple variations of each holding the pwr for different lengths of time, always with the same result.
Anyone have any suggestions? It's not bricked, and the vol keys are working, it just won't go into any modes.
also I dont know if he has hardware encryption enabled (of if thats even an option on this device) but would that even prevent me from getting into factory reset / download mode?
Also I check that the vol rocker is working. when it is on but screen is off, if i click the vol rocker either way it wakes the screen.
I have a similar problem.Here's a thread I made about it http://forum.xda-developers.com/optimus-g-intl/help/enter-download-mode-t2883542.A couple of guys had some ideas.None worked in my phone but maybe you're luckier.
If you haven't done that already you should try going into download mode by pressing power up+down and plug the cable, don't press the pwr button.
If you find a solution pls let me know .
Yup, you shouldn't need to press the power button for download mode.
First, make sure you have the LG United Mobile drivers installed on the PC you're using. Then plug your USB cable into the PC (not the phone yet). Simultaneously press and hold the Vol +/- buttons, and hold for 10 seconds. Then while still holding the vol buttons, connect the micro usb to the phone.

Doesn't work either. If I hold +/- for 10 sec then plug in the usb it flashes the lg logo twice, then goes to the battery charging screen. If I hold +/- for 20 sec then plug in the usb it flashes the lg logo twice then boots like normal.
after reading this post i went and tried if i also cant get into the recovery and the same happened to me, the LG logo just flashes and nothing happens. mine is stock E975 (4.4.2).
worked for me.

Android has SD card encryption disabled by default - but if it was enabled it shouldnt disable recovery/fastboot - right?
Even if the bootloader is locked, i should still be able to get into fastboot/download mode, and/or recovery, right?

That's what i figured, but i didn't know if there is some quirk with this device i wasn't aware of.
Is it possible i have a corrupt boot loader? Again this device I'd completely stock.
anyone?
Hi, I updated with wrong recovery file and the device stuck in the boot logo. Even powering down is also not working. I can see that mac detects the USB device as HTC Android device. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello prakash... Press power plus volume up for 10 seconds. It will automatically restart. As soon as you see it's restarting press volume down.. it will go into bootloader..
Flash proper recovery now from fastboot.. enjoy
Or directly go to boot loader if your phone is off.
Volume down + power.

Is your problem solved ?
If not how did you get into that problem ?
Did you try force shutting down by pressing power down ?
Did you try "Press power plus volume up for 10 seconds" option ?

even i am stuck in this mode, after the 3rd step from WinDriod Toolkit flashed supersu, returned to install Lineage OS from TWRP mode, was sucessful in that too however forgot to install GAPPS after that and proceeded further, phone asked that super su not installed and if i want to install one now, proceeded from there and the screen now shows a 'sad Teal colour smile',
Also the volume + power up worked and device restarted however vol + power down doesnt seem to work and device returns to the same state 'sad Teal colour smile'.

no it doesn't have a home button , and nothing will stop it , what i noticed tho that if i hold vol down and the power button the next time the logo will disappear way faster but only once each hold and ill get a delay of 2 seconds before that logo appearing again and the phone rebooting , its been literally 62 hours since it started doing this , it started with a battery fully charged meaning a 5000ma , about that delay i tried using it but nothing worked , i tried clicking vol up and power button which is supposed to put the phone in recovery mode but nothing happens , i went as far as spamming random buttons to holding them for more than a minute , nothing stops it

Then you hard bricked your device, sorry to tell you that. Take it to a service, and see if they can do anything to it, but you most surely bricked the hell out of your device, up to the point of no return.

If you are stuck on Samsung Logo, connect to PC and press Vol Down + Power for 7 seconds. It will go to charge mode. Disconnect from PC and it will power off automatically. After that press Volume Up + Down and connect to PC while holding and you will enter download mode. It will ask for confirmation.
Useful. Works

Thank you for this post. I did this and my phone booted to TWRP. (I was flashing TWRP when I encountered the bootloop)
After booting to TWRP, I did an advanced wipe (I left System unchecked). After the wipe, the phone booted normally.
