this is my first time and i tried to flash cyanogenmod 10 for my at&t htc one x and im stuck on the rotating cyanogemod screen for about 10 mins. i cant get into the bootloader every time i try to reboot it takes me to the cyanogemod screen please help!
Go into twrp and do a factory reset...do you people even read insturctions? God dam
sorry my first time and how do you get into trwp? cause i hold down power and volume down and it just takes me back to the boot loop
Turn on, hold power 10-15 seconds, until screen goes black, let off, press n hold volume down, press power just 2-3 seconds, let off power button but continue holding vol. Down
Than select recovery
oh my god. thank you so much. you are a god.

Chill out man.
OP, hopefully you have some fastboot/adb experience. You'll have to extract CM ROM, grab the boot.IMG and fastboot it to your device... Then flash ROM in twrp and reboot.
If it bootloops again, try to flash ROM then fastboot.. Different strokes for different folks

People always think there is something wrong with their phone, but almost always its just a matter of not performing the button sequence correctly. The main thing that people don't seem to understand, is that you need to release the power button only, and keep holding volume down until the white bootloader screen comes up. People seem to be releasing both at the same time, which just causes a normal boot.
All I do is hold power for 10-15 seconds and then once the screen goes black I let go and start holding down the volume rocker until it boots into the bootloader. Much simpler in my opinion

Ok...I've discovered that instead of a battery pull you can hold up on the volume button the camera button and the power button and you will reboot the phone. Works anytime and comes in handy if your phone freezes.

So I did this and I love being able to do this, especially testing my ROM out when I make small changes, but one correction, this shuts down the phone, not reboot. Either way, great find.
I actually like it turning off so I can easily boot back into clockwork to flash things.
That's awesome. Tho it did reboot, didn't shut down.

It's surprising that this is news... I thought by now everyone would have known about it.
Wanna know another little trick? Hold all four buttons (Vol. up, vol. down, camera, and power) and you'll be thrown almost immediately into recovery.

I just tried this (with it plugged in charging, no less) and confirms that this works.. and the BEST part is that it's not just 'recovery' it throws you into clockwork recovery
keep holding them and you'll get there.. (took like 2 seconds I believe)
I find this annoying. My phone reboots at least once a day while I'm at work because of this. I keep it in the stock samsung holster, and if I lean down to pick something up off of the floor, shortly later I'm greeted to my phone rebooting.

Nice now i dont have to shutdown first, thanks for this and thanks OP For the tip on reboot.
So it's tap vol up, power, and camera to reboot. And hold the same three to power off? That's great news I already had to order a new back cover because of having to do all those battery pulls for my stupid mistakes.

Nope, tap, press, or hold, whatever you do you will be shuting down your phone, and it is not just a shut down it is essentially cutting the power so it is instant.
interesting.... if you do the 3 button reboot, and phone is pluged into power, it simply turns off and all you see is the battery charging icon.... if it's not plugged in, then it will reboot
This is great, and all, and if it works when the OS is hung or crashed, it's the only solution.
However, I find the Reboot Widget from marketplace (need to be rooted) to be much easier in most cases.

Hold volume down and power down...bottom buttons will flash 7 times...then release power button but keep holding volume down. That should get you there.

Why even take the time to respond when your answer is going to be this......
Edit ... to OP ... you're doing it wrong... wait 1 min after power down, hold vol down for 5 sec, then hold power together with vol down.

I don't believe you have to wait...What I do is reboot/power on while holding vol down the ENTIRE TIME until I get to the bootloader. I've found that releasing vol down too soon will just lead to a normal boot.

No I completely agree. I've jumped the gun personally on a shutdown a couple times and ended up just rebooting tho, so if this guy is still (which I hope and seriously doubt) trying to get to his BL, then may be the issue.. who knows.
Hi there,
Sorry but I think I finally found the right forum for this and I wanted to take one more stab before kissing this phone goodbye.
I have a Rogers Galaxy SGH-i727R. About three weeks ago, the phone started re-starting on it's own. I though maybe it was a sticky power key and had that replaced. The problem persisted. I then noticed that it was primarily upon receiving text messages that the phone would reboot. So it seemed it was a software issue. I am running the stable build of CM9.
Yesterday the phone rebooted and never got off the angry alien screen. I pulled the battery, charged it etc and still could not get it to fully boot up. I left it for over an hour. I finally decided to call it quits and re-flash the phone. Problem is, it will not boot into recovery at all. When I hold down Vol + - and Power, it jsut goes into a loop of vibrating every three seconds until I let go and then it tries a normal boot again. Once, I briefly got a screen saying I was trying to install custom software and to press volume up to do so, but before I could hit volume up, the phone cycled off.
I should also mention that the four buttons on the bottom of the screen do not work. I accidentally sliced the wires on the side of the phone when opening it up. I use a software button saver widget to access their functions. I wonder if that issue is related....
Thanks for any advice. I would like to get into recovery so I can load a new ROM or a stock ROM.
If you haven't ventured there yet in this forum I'd recommend Vincom's roundup on just about everything http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652398.

All I can tell you is that your problem sounds exactly like a stuck power button. I know you replaced it but all the symptoms you point out suggest stuck power button. Maybe try cleaning it again?

But if it were a stuck power button it would not stay on the loading screen indefinitely, no? If I hold down the power button while booting, it will turn the phone off.
Hold vol +- and pwr until it vibrates let go of pwr continue to hold vol +-. You were letting go of all of them at once going by your described method.

****. I am a total moron. The phone still reboots after receiving a text but I was able to boot into recovery. Thanks.
Ok, I have done some looking and have not figured out much yet. I have a one x from AT&T that will not go into fastboot . Pushed the down vol and power, it starts up as normal. There is a pin lock on the screen that the customer forgot the code, so all we need to do is reset the phone to factory. Any other way to do this? I can not access the phones menu to do any thing like turn on debugging to fix it that way. Any help would be great.

There is not button combo that goes directly to fastboot. That button combo gets you into bootloader. Once in bootloader, you can select fastboot.
And if you can't get into booloader, its almost always a matter of you not doing the button combo correctly. Hold both the power button and vol down until the capacitive buttons flash a few times and the screen powers off. While the screen is off, release the power button but not the vol down rocker. Keep holding vol down until the white hboot screen comes up. People often think you are supposed to release both buttons at the same time, which just makes the phone boot normally.
Also this thread belong in Q&A. I've notified the mods to move it.

Don't worry about putting the sim back in for now. The best thing to do is to just rule everything out. Mash volume down as hard as you can and hold it until the htc logo goes away. Mine is tricky as hell and any variation in pressure makes me miss the bootloader altogether.
I'm still looking for some further insight.
It doesn't make sense that it would do this while still S-On, as that's the whole point of staying S-On-- not screwing up the bootloader.

Keep power pressed like 10 secs after the blinking starts. Then take your finger from power button, press and hold vol down button and with other finger, press power button again for 2-3 secs while still holding pressed vol down.

Just occurred to me-- it could be that you were holding the power button too long and it was actually powering it back off. The three buttons blinking are normal when you hold the power button down for ~10 seconds to power off (although on my phone it actually forces it to reboot).

He did get it into bootloader after really mashing the volume key. My phone is similar in that light or medium pressure on the volume key will cause it to miss the bootloader.

No problem. It should charge if you leave it on the bootloader screen (you did, right?) and plug it into your computer. That'll allow you to go ahead and make sure fastboot drivers are working, etc.
And yeah, it takes FORever to download, but I guess it's free, so can't complain. That site was actually down for a few days when I was trying to downgrade my hboot. I made sure to keep a copy of the RUU on my server this time, lol.

Actually, you might even try seeing if it will go into recovery now. If it does, that will allow you to bypass the RUU altogether and just go straight to flashing.
It's your call, but I'd recommend S-Off. It makes flashing on this phone a whole lot less painful.
