hey guys
i have a HTC Sensation that is password locked, but the real problem is that it won't enter recovery mode.
the volume down key is working as i've tested it in a "sos call", the volume up doesn't work when the phone is turned, but that's not important as it's not needed.
is there any other way to get into recovery mode?
also, if i hold the up key with the power switch, it boots up in "safe mode"

did you try to pull out the battery?
if not take it off,put it again
then hold volume down + power button until it shows the bootloader screen

several times sir, even went as far as draining the battery inside the phone completely, trying it with another battery, leaving the battery out of the phone for a whole day...
are there no usb hacks or something like there is with the samsung android phones?

Are you on a stock rom? if you are the you would have to have un-ticked fastboot from the settings to be able to boot into the bootloader...
try to attach the device to a usb port of a laptop and see if the usb debugging symbol shows up in the status bar. if it does you can use the adb command adb reboot recovery to force a jump into the recovery.

can you take a photo of the pattern lock screen
also what do you know about the device? is it eu,uk,us? also what carrier is the device on? is it on ice cream sandwich or gingerbread? you may be able to run a RUU (rom update utility) on the device, updating the firmware and remove the lock that is currently on the device.
So, no bootloader? When you hit vol down + power it should land you in the bootloader screen, where you then select recovery. Have you tried with the cover, SD, and SIM removed from the phone?

you will need to talk to the owner of the phone, without that info your stuffed tbh. with fastboot enabled in the stock rom you cannot boot into bootloader. without the info like what carrier they are on you dont know what ruu to run to reset the device. without usb debugging you cannot use the pc to send commands as far a i am aware :/ assuming you have the correct htc drivers installed connect the device to the pc, open cmd in your adb directory and type in adb reboot bootloader and see if it responds. again without that info you've pretty much had it. you can try to flash ruu's from the pc at random in the hope that you find the correct firmware and cid, but without usb debugging on there is no guarantee that the ruu will even find it.

yeah, tried the adb reboot recovery, no dice. just error, no device connected.
the owner bought it 2nd hand, so he has no clue, i'm just going to return it. pity that htc doesn't have a "usb key" like samsung that forces "download mode" on the android devices

have you actually put your phone in fastboot mode? this is done by first turning it off, then (i dont have my n5 yet to check) but usually hold the volume up and down keys, and hold the power button... and keep holding... fastboot mode should then fire up

Yep, I'm meant to get instructions on my phone/computer but it doesn't get past waiting for device.
Tried different USB ports and restarting computer.
Hi everyone im stuck on the resurection of my device (moto g 2013 8GB updated to 5.1 with [5.1 GPE 1 click] from This forum.
I've tried everything or almost for now, cant get it out of that loop.
*Battery pulling.
*hard buttons combinations.
*fastboot and ADB. (not in fastboot mode so.. And as i did flash de 1click before the loop USB Dbgn isn't enabled)
*i think i've tried every toolkit on this forum.
*Raped google search for over a week trying every posible method-
*Only thing left is to take it to church for a blessing. but im not a believer D:
ADD: i've rooted with a "boot.img" from this forum i think it was a 2015 file.
before this i had not 1 issue with the phone. just unlockd the bootloader a few days ago and updated to 5.1 from 5.0.2 becouse of a wifi issue (unknow mac adress) i had to reboot it like 10 times until it appeared again (original mac adress from device, still wrote it down i have it somewhere.)
I think this would be my first post on this forum and it took me over a week to do it becouse this (asking you-comunity) is my last resource.
PS: i had it going betwen 5.0.2 and 5.1 like 4 times to try solving the wifi issue.. only thing it got me was the "line" on the screen like if it where a problem with vertical sync. (i think you are all very familiar with that issue after downgrading the kernel i think.)
the phone just turns it self on everytime. (everytime)
i was able to boot into recovery before the last flash touching the place were the hardware volume button goes (with a neddle) untill it didnt workd anymore and i send it to a store to repair the volume rockers. still no recovery or bootloader boot.
my pc (laptop with 7-32bit recognices it as xt1032. and the one with xp as MTP.)
I've installed every posible thing that i found to bring it back to life even the android sdk full every pkg from 5.0.2 to 5.1 and extras, Motorola drivers and ADB. tried online searching automated from windows and listing it from a folder with the google one. tried adding the hardware manualy and have every ADB thing that i found on device mng but everyone is wit a yellow triangle. (No USB Debuging enabled so why bother anymore.)
I think that's about it.
You seem to be making things massively over-complicated.
Flash latest TWRP from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/recovery-twrp-2-8-2-0-touch-recovery-t2980621
Example fastboot command:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
If you cannot enter TWRP, use ONLY this fastboot command:
fastboot erase userdata
Via TWRP, flash latest GPE Optimized ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-lollipop-rom-t3017510
i m sorry for my english, isnt my native lang. And for making it over complicated.
i cant enter fastboot mode or give any order to the phone trough fastboot on a console.
I have installed a TWRP touch, just cant acces it. dont know if it is the hardware button (Vol -) or what.
so it dosnt show up on fastboot devices nor adb devices.
am i not understanding something ?
Thanks for replying and taking the time to help!

tried again just in case. No luck, wont boot into recovery or bootloader mode. vol (-) or power and vol (-)
it just "tries" to boot up normaly and gets stuck on "android starting" untill "initializing apps" 4 colours flying and reboots again.

If the volume rocker is not broken, then you should be able to enter fastboot mode. Hold power button until phone turns off completely.

did that, tried pulling the battery off and holding the keys (down and power or just vol down) and starting it. no way it goes into bootloader or recovery. When i do any of those things the phone just powers back up it self and boots into system or tries to, and get stuck in bootloop.
Im gonna try a gtag cable or something like that tomorrow from a friend. would it work to send it to bootloader or recovr?

You said you had the volume rocker repaired - but it seems at least, vol down is not working. I have no experience with jtag kits or commands.

i think it's not repaired properly, or the last time i flashed it fastboot might have send a command like "fastboot normalboot" or something like that. Would that be stoping me from entering recovery mode or fastboot?

What has changed? Did you get the vol button fixed?
Hello everyone!
I'm trying to root my Shield K1 (Android 6.0) since hours, without success because:
I have no acces via adb. Im using the latest adb and also the right drivers (see picture) but I alwas get the message "unauthorized" in adb.
I can't boot my tablet into fastboot mode. When I press the power button + volume up to come into the menu and I select fastboot protocol, the tablet just starts again into the same menu - so i don't get into the fastboot mode. Pressing the powerbutton + volume down don't works either.
I have tried already almost everything: uninstallig drivers/reinstalling it, factory reset on my K1,...
So how I can root my phone without adb or fastboot? Can anyone help?
Even the recovery mode is broken I think, after booting into it, the green android with an red triangle is shown.
Is there something wrong with my K1?
PS: In the menu, which is shown after pressing power + volume up, is standing:
[nvtboot] (version UNDEF_BUILD]
[bootloader] (version UNDEF_BUILD]
Device - locked
You need to enable USB debugging in the developer settings and then allow debugging access from your computer by accepting a popup on your tablet.
Yes, I know this and I did this of course. But there never poped up something on my tablet.
So I also resetted the debugging setting, wiped the tablet, but nothing helped.
1. Sometimes the micro USB cable you use can be bad so I would suggest trying a different cable (especially since you have a K1 which doesn't come with a charger or cable).
2. Fastboot mode is that screen with the menu, that's why "fastboot protocol" just takes you back to the same screen. Also, recovery mode on the stock tablet just shows the android icon and triangle, so your recovery mode is fine.
I would suggest booting the tablet into android (so not the fast boot or recovery mode) and connect it to the windows PC using different cables until the authorisation pop up come up.
I am having the same issues as the OP, the only difference is my bootloader says "unlocked."
I was able to get authorization from the computer, no issues there, however fastboot will not find the device and neither will adb when at the "fastboot mode."
I'm trying to get fastboot so I can flash a recovery, but no luck to this point.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks so much mate! :good: That's the sentence, that helped me. I didn't know this menu is already the fastboot mode. So if one know this it's quite easy to proceed.
Problem solved - tablet already rooted
The adb access is still "unauthorized" but doesn't matter anymore.
No problem, glad you you got it sorted.
It's odd your ADB access is still unauthorised, but at least it still works.

Just as an FYI....I got mine working. Needed to reinstall the nvidia drivers... Got authorization, etc... so assumed working and as we all know assuming is bad!

Hello guys,
I just replaced screen on my 64GB OPO. Phone was fine before screen broke and I had a PIN lock on it. Now, when I turn on phone, I cannot do anything on my phone besides pulling down notification bar and swipe notifications. If I try to unlock by entering my PIN, screen turns off right after. If I enter wrong PIN, it will say Wrong PIN, but as soon as I enter right PIN, screen turns off.
I'm not sure why this is happening. I decided to boot into recovery and reflash the ROM. I hold Power + Vol Down, but phone starts booting normally, no recovery. Then, I try to go into Fastboot by Power + Vol UP, and phone boots normally, no fastboot. At this point, I cannot access recovery or fastboot. Then, I try ADB on laptop, I get "Unauthorized." I can't authorize ADB RSA dialog on my phone because as I said, when I enter my PIN to unlock my phone, screen turns off. Recovery, Fastboot, and ADB worked perfectly before replacing screen.
Anyone know how to fix this?. Thank you
TL;DR:
Replaced screen. Entering my PIN turns screen off immediately. No recovery, No fastboot, ADB gives "Unauthorized" Error.

You can use this,it does not uses fastboot and instead uses hardware debugging port.
Also using this on Xp system will make it easier to detect the device.

I looked at that tool before I made this thread and in 3rd step, it says to press Power + Vol Up? Doesn't that mean you have to be in fastboot? Anyway, I tried it in Windows 10 and it didn't do anything. My phone gets detected by my laptop and everything. I will try in Windows XP and see if anything changes.

No, power+vol+ is actually done to trigger the qualcomm port,if your device can't boot to fastboot,it means it's actually dead then your pc should be able to detect it as "Qhs_bulk" or "usb qcom diagnostics 9006".
Make sure you install the drivers given in the thread or Qualcomm 2012 drivers.Again this procedure doesn't work on fastboot/adb drivers!
You'll have to disable driver signature check on win8/10,Xp works without any issues.
