No touch in TWRP, can't get to adb mode - Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a version of twrp that uses the volume buttons and etc?
My touch isn't working, and I need to get into ADB mode. OR is there another recover that has an ADB mode?...
My screen doesn't work, and before I do a reset I want to pull my data so I have to use ADB mode, but I can't get into ADB right now.

the only one that i know of that uses the vol buttons is CWM

How to get into Recovery Modew?

What buttons do I need to press to get this phone into recovery mode. Absolutely nothing comes up when I try to google it or search for this phone it's driving me nuts. I've got it into download mode no problem but recovery I can't find a process on.
I know there are multiple threads that tell you how, but after you flash CMW and are turning your phone on you want to hold down the power button, volume up, and the home button. When the Samsung logo comes up, let go of the power button but hold down the others. That will take you into recovery.

Is this in a terminal on a computer or in terminal emulator? On the phone I've been using:
su
reboot recovery

That's using adb on a computer attached to your phone. adb is part of the Android SDK.
Thanks. I'm not big on the command-line stuff. I just copy/paste the lines when instructed to do so.
If you're rooted, you can also use an app like Quick Boot.

Any way to boot into bootloader mode without a functional vol down button?

So I got my phone stuck at the Google logo, but since my volume down button is busted due to a fall I can't get into bootloader or recovery using the traditional method of power +vol down. It there any known workaround for this dilemma?
Code:
su
reboot bootloader
...from any terminal emulator with root access.
If you're not rooted, not sure you can even do this via adb from a computer?
Code:
adb shell
reboot bootloader
Thanks for the tips, however, since the phone is stuck at the boot logo the adb command or fastboot don't work unfortunately
You may need to fix the button then. Otherwise you may be out of luck in your situation.

OPO can't access fastboot mode

Hi,
I have a problem with my One Plus One. When I open the phone, there is only the "CYANOGEN RECOVERY" screen that appears.
I can access sideloading using the menu but it is not working. I tried to sideload CM12 and it is looping back to the recovery screen
More over, I cannot access fastboot mode. I tried to use adb to reboot the phone in fastboot mode but adb only sees the phone in sideload mode
The Power + vol up combinaison doesn't work...it will come back to the recovery screen
Any idea ?

Are you attempting to boot into fastboot with the cable connected? That's been known to cause issues, so unplug and try again.

Htc 820 rebooting ONLY into recovery and black screen

Hello i tried to flash twrp recovery on my htc 820u but i think it didn't install. Phone was still working correctly until i tried to do a factory reset. Now it will just boot into recovery every time and i have only a black screen. the phone vibrates when i touch the screen but i cannot switch it off. when i reboot it just goes back to recovery.
Can anyone suggest something please? Is there a way to prevent the phone from booting into recovery?
PS: I'm on lollipop 5.0

You must not duplicate the post in different forum for the same topic.
Anyway, do it as follow:
1. Connect your device to the PC once it is booted into twrp recovery
2. Copy your Lollipop recovery to the device over adb: adb push recovery.img /external_sd/recovery.img
3. Run: adb shell
4. Run in shell: dd if=/external_sd/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p44
5. Run in shell: reboot
If the device reboots into stock recovery, press and hold vol up + vol down + power until the display goes black. Release the vol up button immediately (while still holding other buttons). Device will reboot into fastboot. Select reboot from the menu.
Hope you are back to business.

By any chance would you happen to know why the twrp shows black screen? it is still functionnal, would it be because of incompatibility with lollipop? and any way to fix it?
PS: it worked fine on kitkat.

It goes in sleeping mode, you can disable this in settings=> screen=> enable/disable screen timeout (all in twrp)

What can I do when (for step 2) I do not have a recovery? Can I use one not coming from this Phone?
I did encounter the same "reboot to recovery bug" but I got it from updating the SU Binary.
Hope you can help me.
Hi guys, same problem here, with twrp apparently functioning but nothing displays on screen. Also, impossible to boot the device properly.
Tried the whole adb procedure mentioned above, did nothing as far as I can tell. Trying to reboot from fastboot leads to the HTC green boot logo, but no further... What should I try now ? Is it possible to inject a stock rom from HTC and where can I get it ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
thank you this helped me too

bootloop no volume buttons how to get into recvoery?

hi all
I have opo but volume buttons are dead and i flashed magsik 14 and took into bootloop
I connected my phone to pc to try to get adb to work but the bootloop is fast so doesn't connect to the computer.
is there any other way to get to recovery?
nope - far as I know only button presses or adb commands can get a phone into recovery
as soon as the phone gets past the splash screen you should have adb even if it bootloops - just try sending the command to reboot to recovery
