I found out how: when on the screen with a red triangle! Hold up volume and power. This takes you to a blue screen with the option to clear cache

Stock recovery question

I (for no reason whatsoever) prefer to get into recovery to perform factory data resets. Holdinf volume up and hitting power gets me into the proper menu but when I select recovery, I get the exclamation point inside the triangle. How then can I wipe via recovery?

I should have mentioned that step doesn't work either. I'm pretty stumped.
hold power and slide from vol down to vol up on that screen will take you to the stock recovery.
Make sure you get the sequence right:
1) See the (!)
2) Hold POWER button
3) Press VOLUME UP button
4) See the UI. There will be options for "wipe data/factory reset" and "wipe cache partition."

SIZE="4"] Try to fix it , all you have to do is, turn on the phone by holding the on button and the volume - (down) button,boot you into recovery mode, scroll down to recovery then click the power button, when it loads up, look for the option that says "wipe data/factory reset select options on this menu, then if it is there click also on wipe cache partition, then click reboot at the top. Hope this works fine for you.[/SIZE]

Did you backed up your whole data using recovery mode???
If yes than wipe your factory/data, wipe cache partition ,go to advance wipe your dalvik cache, wipe your battery stats and restore your backup
then reboot your phone its done....
and if didnt backup try to flash different rom or download stock rom for your device and flash it...

[Q] Phone bricked

I have doogee dg500(mt6589) the phone will not turn on,charge ect.when I run flash tools I get Emi obtain dram failed .5054 message any help or other options will be apprciated.
fix
The first thing is to boot to recovery mode...
1. Pull the battery and reinsert.
2. Hold Power and Vol-Up (the top of the volume rocker) buttons at the same time, until the phone boots to a menu and then immediately release the Power button. The options will continue to scroll and when the arrow gets to [Recovery Mode] <<== , immediately release the Vol Up button.
3. The phone should now be at [Recovery Mode] <<==. If it isn't (or if the phone starts to boot to another mode), pull the battery and try again. There's a bit of a knack to this sequence and I often have to do it many times.
4. Press the Power button twice, then press the Vol Up button. The phone should now show an Androidon its back with a red triangle and exclamation mark against it.
5. Press the Power button to get to the Recovery menu. (I'm sure there's a simpler way of doing this, but I haven't found it yet!)
The next thing is to Wipe cache and then Wipe data / factory reset...
6. Use Vol Down to navigate to Wipe cache partition, then press Vol Up to select it.
7. You'll see a picture of an Android with its belly open and a message -- Wiping cache... and Formatting /cache... Wait until the Recovery menu reappears - it takes quite a long time, so be patient.
8. Use Vol Down to navigate to wipe data /factory reset and press Vol Up to select.
7. Navigate to 'Yes' using Vol Down and select with Vol Up. You'll see a message --Wiping data... and Formatting /data and Formatting /cache - wait until the Recovery menu reappears.
I am copied this info from a willington's reply to someone about this brand of phone on this site.
Hi, i hawe a problem with my doogee phone, when i turn on the phone its stucks on boot screen and nothing happens,,, wipe data and factory reset not helped me

Okay so after doing a couple days research and listening to you guys, I found out when I rooted I didn't flash a recovery... So yeah I installed CWM recovery and then wiped cashe partision and it worked. When I wiped it, it came up saying to "fix root" as I may have lost in then I clicked yes then booted straight away. That's it fixed now.
Thank you for your help everyone!

When the phone is rebooting, press and hold power down, you'll then get into Fastboot. From there, go to Recovery using the volume down key and when selected, press the volume up to select. If it tries to install the update again, don't let it reboot into the ROM - when the recovery restarts itself, make sure you hold volume down again.

It doesn't work it just keeps rebooting and coming up with the "bootloader unlocked" screen after itself
1. With the phone powered off, press the VOL UP + VOL DOWN KEY together + POWER KEY .
2. The device will display different BOOT OPTIONS
3. Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL to Recovery and VOL UP Key to SELECT
Tip: If the device reboots, you may have waited to long to make a selection, you will need to begin the process again.
4. The device will display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress ( logo with Exclamation mark)
5. Press and hold the VOL DOWN key, then tap and release the VOL UP key.
Tip: You can try this step, holding the phone in landscape. If you are stuck on step 5, try a force reboot by pressing the power Key and Vol Down key, and start the process again.
6. The device will display additional menu options (Text will appear in BLUE)
7. Use the VOL DOWN Key to scroll to wipe cache partition and the POWER Key to SELECT this option.
8. The device will then perform the partition wipe
9. Once the Formatting is complete, press the POWER key to confirm a REBOOT
11. The device will reboot and start the normal power up sequence .
worked for me.....

Still none the wiser how to update to 4.4.4 though! I mean surely with a rooted phone there is an app to do it these days???
u can try this
if you have unlock bootloader and can go to fastboot mode,.try to flash your moto g using your 4.4.2 stock rom by manually (you can search how to do it),.flash partition gpt and motoboot (ignore the error),reboot bootloader and finished the rest command..flash phil touch recovery and reboot ro recovery,go to install zip,choose install zip from sideload then send your phone update using sideload command.
that"s solved my problems when i'm getting stuck on blank screen after unlock bootloader warning or only booting to recovery,i'm on 4.4.2 when get that error.
but now in my case,i should go to fastboot mode and choose normal powerup to make my phone booting normally,.because if i'm power on using power button,moto g booting to recovery,not a big deal for me as long as my phone back to the track hehehe
my moto g is o2 germany,but i'm flashing with 4.4.2 germany retail and 4.4.4 update for germany retail.

that's mean you can't access your stock recovery...try to flash your stock rom moto g 4.4.2 then install philz,use sideload to install the update file.
