HTC m8, was running CM12 latest nightly with twrp.
I was trying to revert to an earlier build of CM after failure to install MultiROM was creating UI errors. Now my phone is stuck on the CM animation and I can't reboot to recovery mode to access twrp. Power and volume up reset but don't access recovery mode. USB connection on my computer is not recognized so I can't send adb commands to reboot to recovery. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You need to use power + volume down to get into recovery. Press and hold power + volume up until the phone reboots. As soon as it restarts press and hold power + volume down until it boots to hboot.
Thanks!
I thought I had tried that earlier but apparently my timing was off.

Hi - I just installed CM7 in Samsung Galaxy S4G T959V and i want to reboot the phone in recovery mode so that i can install CM9. But unfortunately i am unable to reboot the phone in recovery mode. I tried pressing the Volume Up/Down key and Power key together to boot into recovery and it does not work. I went inside the Rom Manager and tried the option boot into recovery mode and still no luck. Can somebody guide me how to go inside recovery mode in CM7. Appreciate your help
Hold down the power button, press Reboot and pick Recovery.

First off uninstall rom manager.
Make sure you are holding both volume buttons together.
If you have adb installed on your pc, plug the phone into your computer and type this.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
gah, nm.
I had cm 10.2 installed with agni kernel on top. I tried to flash de tablet mode for cm 10.1/.2. Now I find myself in a bootloop and can't access download mode or recovery in any way. Help!
Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 gt-p3113
hold press power key about 10 seconds, device will poweroff,then hold press volume up or down and press power key to boot to download or recovery mode. Try some times, Good luck.
I was able to reflash cm 10.2. Now I gotg afraid and tried to go back to stock. I did the process explained in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2283598 but ended up in a boot loop in the samsung logo
OK, I have a GS3 here with a broken power button, which was causing all kinds of problems when the phone was running, and making it impossible for me to boot into recovery. I've physically removed the power button from the motherboard, and now I can boot the phone by holding volume down + home while plugging the phone into USB power. That gets me to Download mode, where I could just reboot to my ROM.
So that was fine, but I just made a booboo and when I was in recovery flashing a new ROM, I wiped Data instead of Dalvik, so now I have no ROM installed. I therefore have no way to reboot into recovery to fix the problem, the only thing I can boot to is Download mode.
So, is there a way to get to recovery mode from download mode? Some command in Odin or something? If not, I can still use Odin to flash it back to stock (pre-ML1 bootloader of course), re-root, flash a recovery, etc. but I'd rather avoid that if possible.
Answering my own question...
You can do this by booting in download mode (hold home and volume down while plugging in USB), then once you're in download mode, reboot (hit volume down button) and instantly hold down volume up and home. That gets you into recovery.
I've formatted the tab using latest twrp recovery after that I did a restart using recovery and it was taking long to boot back to recovery and force restarted it by holding power button.
Now I can't boot to reocovery or download mode by holding volume down + power button & up + power, it does boot into the usual Galaxy tab logo and then nothing.
If i hold the power button to long it's just boot back again to the tab logo.
When I put the charger to the device it just stuck on the battery logo.
I've also removed the back part and removed battery and tried again, But still same...
Also tried to flash the odin when it's stuck on galaxy logo, odin does recognize the connection but can't flash anything!
Is there any other way to boot back to download mode????
EDIT :
I did removed the back part of the tab to remove battery and try inserting, but still I was not able to boot to download or either recovery mode by hold power + volume buttons.
I think maybe the power button or the volume button has some issue that's why it was not able to boot into recovery/download mode.
After that I've drained the device battery and reconnected it to device charger and it automatically booted into download mode.
And flashed the stock rom then switched to a custom rom!
Problem solved for now, I'll update the thread later!
