Volume button fault - Any other ways to go to bootloader?

Hello all,
my sensation's volume rocker is faulty. By pressing volume down and power on, it will not boot into boot loader thus cannot enter recovery.
I know i can use software to boot into it boot loader but what if I am getting bootloops and unable to boot into rom?
Any ADB commands to make the phone boot into bootloader straight?
I am planning to flash the factory RUU and go claim my warranty after i get my Galaxy nexus..

Possibly not unless your timing is amazing!
Are you stuck in bootloops now or is this hypothetical?

Please, tell if your volumne rocker is so broken that it cant even turn up/turn down volumne during normal use of phone?
If it's ok, thet I suggest method of booting into recovery which I use (and i had problems to boot before - thought it's vol. rocker):
1. press volume down button and hold it!
2. press power button for 2-3 seconds and then release, still holding the volumne down
3. phone boots into recovery after few seconds.
Hope it might help you.

Implying he can't control volume in a bootloop, I seriously hope this guy uses 4EXT touch, or else he needs to replace the rocker.
Can you flash zips from USB fastboot?

I understood that he can't enter recovery due to some volume button fault. When you stuck in bootloop only thing you can do is pull out the battery, no keys/buttons are usable - tested myself :/

not really hypothetical.. in fact i experienced it earlier..
my volume up/down seems to have a mind of his own and at times i will enter "safe mode"
thereafter it will auto reboot unless i am quick enough to do a factory wipe under settings... it will still boot into safe mode but wont auto reboot.
so after knocking a few times on the volume rocker, i am able to boot into normal mode but the volume rocker isnt working. Pressing it once, will cause to decrease the volume and switch to silent mode.

lol this sux man..
I dunno if HTC singapore will honor the warranty cause this is a hardware defect and nothing to do with any rom or unlock..
Even in bootloader mode, press up will cause it to go down or at times up. pressing down may or may not respond.

If you in a boot loop adb should see it for split couple seconds so with the phone connected I would keep trying to do adb reboot recovery

That's what I thought but it didn't happen when I tried it on mine.

From Fastboot, adb commands also work, provided vol - works while powering on. This sucks dude, sorry.

If you have CWM recovery installed (im not sure about other recoverys), you can connect your phone to your computer when it's off and you will have access to a limited adb provided by CWM. You can then use the command "adb reboot recovery" or "adb reboot bootloader" or whatever to do what you need to do.

Wipe all then cant boot into bootloader
Hi, i'm really sorry to bring back this post,
your fear had become my nightmare in reality.
The volume button was somehow (either physically spoil or is not capture click)
during booting process.
I have completely forgotten about it, and do complete wipe
(select wipe all except sdcard in touch recovery).
So, now the phone is completely clean (without rom)
and i'm unable to trigger bootloader/recovery via pwr/vol down button.
I have try take out battery,leave it for 10min and try press
all those button without casing/rocker;
press & hold vol down, den plug in battery;
and press both vol up & down then only pwr button.
The phone now (i assume) boot normally,
stop at HTC logo because there is no rom inside
(just like normal pc boot pass bios but cant find OS).
ironically, i live at singapore too... haha...
---------- Post added at 10:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 PM ----------
I read somewhere that the person use pin to press the button really hard
and it manage to go into bootloader
(but I cant find back that post now)
Searching in forum recommend me to peel off the
volume button cover n use pin to press on it directly
(which I do not dare )
So now I sent it to repair shop,
hopefully that person using either g-box or gmbox
(flash box start with G) and can push RUU inside.
God bless me.
p/s : Sorry I should post in Q&A...

Get the phone off. Pull the battery and re-insert. Open fastboot
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
And if you want to flash a ruu directly:
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot oem rebootRUU
And then flash the ruu

Hi, can you tell me exactly step by step how to open fastboot?
pull out the battery, press vol down (??), reinsert?
fastboot devices go no response after booted and halt at htc logo.
Thank you very much.

Have you tried finding where the rocker lines up with the buttons on the phone, and just used the buttons without the back attached?

[Q] HTC One S - Cannot get into Bootloader

I have searched the forum but no luck on this one.
When I Press Power and Down Vol HTC One S just reboots - it does not go into Bootloader menu.
I cant take the battery out as suggested elsewhere because battery is non-removable.
Fast Boot is Off in the Power Menu.
Any suggestions ?

Go to terminal Emulator and type "su" and then "reboot download".

Thanks for this.
I'm not rooted so I cant do su in Terminal Emulator
Can I do ...
adb reboot download
from Mac instead ?
Can you explain what this does ?

Hi,
maybe you can use the ADB to get in the bootloader.
just look onto this HERE
the text there is english because i've only the german explaining and so i don' need to translate it.

EDIT: Finally got into bootloader by connecting phone to a PC with USB Debugging enabled and entering "adb reboot bootloader" in console.
Hi zobojoe, any luck with getting to the bootloader? I have HTC One S imported from Germany with T-Mobile branding and I want to get rid of that branding by flashing the stock ROM but can't get in to the bootloader same as you. What version of phone do you have?

Hi guys i've search the xda maybe this could help you to get the debranding off and get root acess on the phone i don't testing it because i've only the HTC sensation

Hey, thank's for trying to help! I've seen the thread you posted before - used it to get CWM and root but I've spent last 3 hours trying to get the stock ROM in my phone (I really hate the T-mobile branding) and nothing worked. What I did was I downloaded RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.53.401.2_Radio_0.15.31501 S.19_10.12.31501S.06L_release_251412_signed.exe and tried to flash that using RUU. It didn't let me. So I at least got the zip file from the exe (temp method) and tried to flash that in CWM but id didn't work either (probably because it was not signed). So I tried to extract the system.img and radio.img and pack it again in a new zip and sign it myself - didn't work either. Kinda stuck now. Help from someone familiar with packing ROMs would be highly appreciated. I can't be the only one trying to debrand my phone .

Yes it it. Before I unlocked it, the RUU update ended with error 170. After unlocking it RUU update started kinda flashing something, but then ended with black screen with HTC logo and then turned into RUU fail! red warning.

Hi Andrew SM
I too have been able to adb reboot into bootloader but can't understand why power + vol down just reboots the phone and not go into bootloader as it should ?
Is it the case that it is rebooting straight into recovery mode when I do power + vol down and then just boots ? - what should I normally expect to see when I boot into recovery mode ?

I don't think it is recovery - you would se a black screen with a phone icon in the midddle of it with stock recovery.
But I was able to get to bootloader with VOL DOWN + POWER finally after unlocking bootloader via htcdev.com (bootloader screen starts showing *** TAMPERED *** on the top, but that is normal). And you have to disable Fast boot in Settings -> Power of course.
Good luck!

Boot loader
Little late to the party, but I've found the best way to get into boot loader wiht any consistency is to hold the volume down and power button for five seconds or so, then let go of the power button (while holding volume down), then tapping the power button. Boot loader should pop up
Hope this helps!

Brilliant! Worked perfectly! Thanks very much.

I cannot enter the bootloader too, so I have follow your instruction and now I can enter inside bootloader. I was wondering why this was necessary.
Anyway I just have the massage : locked and NOT the TAMPERED advice.
Anyway I will wait to unlock my one s, I wanna see if a different unlock way from htcdev cames out because I do not wannt risk that the warranty could be void. Have anyone tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1578908 ?

Thanks a lot for this trick! This works immediatly!

Another easy way to get into boot loader every time is :
1. power off phone
2. hold the volume down button ( until boot menu open )
3. press power button for about 2-3 seconds then let go

Cannot boot into recovery!

Hey guys! I just got a One X from AT&T bought on eBay, although I live in Europe.
I managed to unlock the bootloader by changing the CID to 1111111 etc. (how many 1's?) and it worked fine.
I then ran installed ClockworkMod Touch Recovery for the HTC One X through terminal and it was a success.
I rebooted by holding down the power and volume down, and attempted to boot into recovery. I got a white screen with the HTC logo, and red text underneath saying something like "do not use this without HTCs permission" or something of the sort. The phone then turned off.
NOW I'm trying to boot again into the bootloader (I think that's what it's called, but by turning it off and holding the volume down and power key) and it just doesn't work. I've tried a million times, with different variations of holding down the keys. What happens is the light on the touch keys at the bottom flashes a bunch of times, then it boots normally. Everything works on the phone otherwise.
I tried to do it via fastboot/terminal by issuing the command ./fastboot-mac reboot-bootloader but it just says "waiting for device..." even though it's connected.
Anyone had this problem and found a solution?

Recovery
Clockwork recovery is not supported on the evita. Download goo manager and you should be able TWRP from that. And then you can reboot into TWRP.

I think you flashed CWM for the international (Tegra3 quad core) One X. Install TWRP as previous poster recommended.

There is no version of CWM Touch Recovery that is supported for the AT&T One X. You flashed the international version. Fortunately, you can flash TWRP right over it inside Goo Manager.
Be thankful you didn't flash it inside ROM Manager or you could have bricked your phone. I've seen people do it in the past.

ansedve season
Thanks guys, and glad I didn't brick the phone!
I installed Goo Manager and installed OpenRecovery Script, and managed to attempt to go into recovery, but again got the white HTC screen and something about "development purposes only" in red text.
I think I'm really lost on this one, any help would be great, like a link to a tutorial?

in fastboot run this command "fastboot erase cache", then boot into recovery.

Don't be too concerned with the blah blah in red writing about development version etc. on the boot screen - you get that boot screen when you unlock the bootloader.

What did you do in recovery? Did you flash anything? Does the phone not boot up now?

Thanks guys for all your help. I guess know I technically know what to do to fix things, thanks to you. The only problem that after probably over 100 failed attempts I cannot boot into recovery. I tried all variations of holding the power and volume down button while restarting, rebooting, turning on/off or up/down sideways but it just boots normally every time.
This means I can't use fastboot etc. I guess unlocking the bootloader and voiding the warranty was for nothing
If you know another way to reboot into bootloader other than the hardware buttons method let me know!

Believe it or not, I think you are just performing the button presses incorrectly, if you can't access the bootloader. Bootloader is probably still intact, otherwise the phone would not be working at all.
1) In Settings>Power, make sure "fast boot" is not checked.
2) Then power the phone off fully, but holding the power button until the power menu comes up, and select "Power off". Wait a minute for the phone to power off completely.
3) Hold down the volume down rocker. DO NOT release it until I tell you to later.
4) Press the power button for 3 seconds, then release. DO NOT release the volume down rocker.
5) Once the white bootloader screen shows up, release the volume down rocker.
Alternately, you can do this:
a) With the phone powered on, hold the power button until the capacitive buttons flash (about 5 seconds).
b) The moment the screen goes black, hold down the volume down rocker, (again, DO NOT release it until the bootloader screen comes up) but release the power button.
The timing for this method is a little trickier, if you press the volume down rocker too late, it will boot normally (or safe mode), and too soon, and it just reduces the ringer volume and the phone stays on. But as long as you press and hold volume down the moment the screen goes black, it will work.
---------- Post added at 10:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 AM ----------
But also, I would still not recommend trying to boot into recovery until you have installed the TWRP recovery as mentioned previously on this thread, if you have not done so already. There is no CWM Touch Recovery for this phone, so I'm pretty certain you installed in improper recovery on the phone, and recovery will not function at all.

Alternatively, you can go into Goo Manager and select the "Reboot Recovery" option, which should get you into TWRP

Or from command prompt "adb reboot bootloader" so long as you open your prompt from your adb application folder.
Or alternatively skip the middle man: "adb reboot recovery"
I really think your problem lies with your button pressing -- follow instructions on the previous post and you should be home free.

Well I actually eventually managed it! I think the volume button was a bit stuck because it still takes a few tries to boot into bootloader, but eventually I managed it and am in the TWRP menu right now!
I did a little victory dance when it happened. Thanks again!

Can't get into recovery mode on H955 V15c!

I can't get into recovery mode on my new LG G Flex 2. I've tried holding Volume Down + Power till the Logo appears, then releasing and holding again which just resets or shuts off the phone after a few more seconds, I've tried holding Volume Down + Power till Logo, then holding both Volume keys which does nothing. What does work is getting to the Hard Reset screen by holding Volume Down + Power till Logo, then releasing only Power button and holding it down again.
I've read that some things don't work on 5.1.1, but that shouldn't affect the recovery, right? As the phone isn't rooted, I can't use apps like Quick Boot either.
Help me!

I understand your frustration man, developing for this phone is a pain (to put it lightly). That being said do you have adb and fastboot installed (android SDK) on your computer? if so you should be able to open a command prompt and type
"adb reboot recovery" without the quote... and hit enter, and it should reboot into recovery. I cant guarantee you wont see an android laying down with a (!) in a triangle.... If that happens unplug your phone and keep pushing and holding different button combos to get it to reboot regularly again

i tried like this:
1. First of all turn off the device by holding the Power button.
2. Afterwards hold down the Volume Up and Volume Down button for a couple of seconds.
3. While holding these buttons press the Power button for a short while.
4. Release held keys when you see an Andoid image.
5. Then press the Camera button to enter Recovery Mode.
and noting. there is no android image.
and also when i press and hold power+ volume up the phone turn on and then after 2-3 sec the phone vibrate 3 time.

I may have given you incorrect steps and that's my fault. I was reading about a different device. My bad. Try this:
Power off your device.
Press and hold VOLUME UP + POWER at the same time.
Release all buttons when the Sony Xperia C3 screen flickers and in a few seconds the Recovery screen will appear.
You can also try this:
Reboot your phone, as it's rebooting, press volume down + power. You should then see the Android robot after restart, release buttons and press camera shutter.?

Do something for me first... Let's make sure your ADB fastboot is working properly.
If your device will boot normally, navigate to DEVELOPER OPTIONS and make sure you have enabled USB DEBUGGING.
Next, open a COMMAND PROMPT window and type:
adb devices
If the adb daemon is not running, you will see the COMMAND PROMPT say that it is starting the daemon on a certain port number.
Type this again:
adb devices
Your COMMAND PROMPT should return with a list of attached devices with your serial number.
Next, type this:
adb reboot bootloader
If it's working properly you should be booted into the bootloader and your LED should be a solid blue.
If you want to boot to the bootloader with the hard keys then do this:
Power off your device
Connect the USB cable to your PC
Press and hold POWER UP and plug in the USB cable to your device while still holding POWER UP.
This should boot you into the bootloader with a solid blue LED.
Let me know if these steps are working and post back with what you find

beacuse of the pass code i cannot send adb commands through the lock screen.
anyway, there is somthing i can do to wipe data or flash a new rom or remove passcode through bootloader? (the black screen with the blue led)

I was actually putting together a post for you with the exact same solution. I read over the details a little while ago. Glad you got it working. Good job.
