Vol down + Power key takes u to the fastboot mode not to the Recovery..
Use Vol up + Power -- Boot into recovery
Vol up / Vol down -- Move up / Down
Long press Vol up -- Select the option
For going back to the previous menu there vl b an option with just two dots ".." long press Vol up on it

Having same problem. I already tried factory setting option also paperclip / hard boot option. not working any thing.
This happens while installing one of game (angry bird space) mobile complained with corrupted file and 2 times i tried. after that I try to switched off WIFI & JuiceDefender and then some applications complaining about not working. So I rebooted and then no screen comes at all.
Do I need to use update from SD from recovery option? or something else. I am afraid some thing badly happens and that's why my Micromax A100 superphone could not boot at all.

[Q] How to boot in recovery console on Lenovo A5000

Hi guys,
title speaks for itself
I have tried every single method that came up from google:
Recovery Mode Lenovo A5000
Turn off the device
Press and hold Volume UP key + Power Key for a few seconds
Release all key when Android Recovery Mode appears
Use Volume keys to select
Use Power key to confirm
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The combination should be-->
-->Simultaneously press&hold Power button & Volume+ and Volume- (Yes,both volume buttons).
If by using this combination the phone just shutdowns or restarts.....Simultaneously press&hold Power button & Volume+ and Volume- >Release all buttons when the Lenovo logo (the first static logo) disappears.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
...or use a sequence--> Simultaneously press&hold Power button & Volume+ and Volume- -->Release only the Power button when the Lenovo logo appears-->Keep on pressing both Volume(+&-) buttons until you enter the recovery mode.

don't remove your fingers until it boots up.. much better if you press first the volume keys before you power on.. keep pressing all together until it opens. or you might end up booting the chinese recovery.

With Vol Up+Power button managed to get this:
Select boot mode:
[VOLUME_UP to select. VOLUME_DOWN is OK>]
[Recovery Mode] <<==
[Fastboot Mode]
[Normal boot]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
i can change selection with Vol Up (move arrow), but neither Vol Down or Power button acts like OK button

Tried to reboot to recovery from app it returns "no command" error.
After that i found what is key combination (i think) hold down volume up and down and power button. after 5+ seconds release power button, but keep pressing volume buttons. But no command error again.
I really need recovery console, cuz i want to install xposed but if i get stuck in bootloop will...well, will get stuck

Well, also tried to plug-in USB cable while holding Volume UP ad Volume DOWN buttons, to see will it shows in adb. Result is "no command" again. But i can see device attached when using build-in cd-rom + usb debug enabled

For me , Button Combination never Works Exactly , but when i Reboot into Recovery (using Rashr app etc) , then same No Command Window Appears and then i Press Power Button Again and Recovery Window Appears... No Command Error Shows , Simply Press Power Button again Like for 0.5 Seconds , Recovery Screen Shows Up, Works for me.. ...
And also me Using Same 4.4.2 , i installed Xposed (Not From Recovery) and Never Got a Bootloop...
For Now i am using TWRP , Working Well , But Still Button Combination is Really Annoying For me...

Yeah I have very large fingers and those damn buttons are very small lol so its aggravating, but a real life saver when everything is frozen rock solid ..try that button combo on an LG g4 , its taken me an hour of reboots to finally get to recovery, why put such tiny hardware buttons on the back of the phone ffs
Through my ancient eyes comes the certainty of decay... LG G4 & L 70

Thanks guys, but i've managed to flash TWRP recovery and don't have No command error, anymore

Power Off Your Mobile , Now Press Vol+ , Vol- and Power Button all At the Same Time Until your Phone starts again and you See Lenovo Logo (Below Written Powered By Android) , then after 5 Seconds Release All .... Now wait , and you'r in Recovery Now .... Works For me...
Or you can Try "adb reboot recovery" , this one works for me too...
If None of these Working , then Re-flash Recovery and Check again (Try flashing Recovery Using different Method Like using Rashr App)...

Recovery mode - Device buttons are not working

I have a micromax doodle 4 (Q391) with broken power and volume down buttons and its stuck in boot logo. So whenever I connect my phone to charger it will turn on and just keep showing the logo. However, I'm managed to enter recovery mode to reset device or wipe data BUT as I mentioned the power button is not working to select nor the volume button is working around to highlight options. Since its stuck in bootloop, I can't even enable usb debugging.
Btw, the battery can't be removed in this model. All I have is a reset button, volume up button and If i give some hard push on volume down its working sometimes. Some help would be very useful. Thank you.

After the vibration that you notice at the time you start your mobile you need to hold down the volume down button first (don't press both of them simultaneously) and then press and hold down the power button to boot into recovery menu.

I have a broken power button but I'm able to boot into recovery in a different way. My question is "How to select options in recovery mode with power button not working?".

Visit a nearby micromax service center and get it repaired I don't own a micromax but I hope that the price for repairs are nominal.

How ??

[SOLVED] Lenovo A536 - how to reboot to recovery mode

Hello, I have a big problem with rebooting to recovery mode. I can reboot to recovery only with application. If I turn my phone off and then hold volume up + power, then I get black screen with only one yellow Chinese text on the very top left side and then after 1 minute it's get into Chinese recovery.. My question is: how to get into custom recovery without using applications like for example "Quick boot".
I need it, because I have to install ROM again, because I did a big mistake, when I deleted one file from the "system" folder. Now my phone boot without problem, but after that everything is lagging and all applications stop working, then it automatically reboot phone..
I can't flash firmware with SP Flash Tool, because of Windows drivers. My laptop does not recognize the phone. It says: "Unknown USB device".. That's why I need to get into custom recovery for installing ROM.
Thank you in advance for help.

This helped:
With the phone powered off
Hold Volume Up + Volume Down + Power button
When phone vibrates release power button only.
As the No Comman Screen release all buttons.
Press and hold the power button and tap the Volume Up button.
Release the buttons. You must get into recovery mode.
