Can't boot in recovery mode - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Whenever I try holding power and volume up it goes to updater but I don't even have a file on SD for that. Is there another way to get to it so I can cleared my cache? Thank you.

Keep playing with your phone? LOL
I believe you can download the stock non rooted rom and start all over. From what it sounds like, you erased your OS from the phone.

Hope someone else chimes in and offers a better solution.

Ahh now I see what you were trying to do. You were trying to flash another ROM but you rebooted after you did a wipe instead of going back to recovery to flash a different ROM.

Recovery troubles

I'm trying to root my phone and every time the phone hangs at the hboot screen. So today I manually entered recovery pressing vol down and power. I wanted to do a factory reset and try rooting again since I already have the OTA installed. Once in recovery I cannot navigate with the volume buttons. I have to remove the battery to even restart the phone. Am I doing something wrong or is there a problem with the phone?
are you mixing up cwm with the bootloader?

I have yet to get the phone rooted, so its not cwm. Am I not able to do a factory reset with the bootloader or whatever it is I get into holding volume down and power?
@OP:
When u come to HBOOT menu, give it ~20-30 seconds to be responsive. Then Press power button once or twice, and it should start responding.

Pressing the voldown and power button doesnt take you to recovery, thats hbooot, and why dont you just do a factory reset from the settings?

[Q] Can't Install ROM

I was attempting to install a new ROM and after performing a data wipe and wiping cache, a message came up saying E: unknown volume for path [/sd-ext] Back menu button Disabled
Dalvik Cache wiped.
Whenever I try to install a zip from sd card, the recovery screen goes blank and only the little box and android images remain.
What can I do to fix this?
You are supposed to use the power button to select the zip file. Are you?

Yes, I am. I can move around the first group of options freely but whenever I click any of them the screen goes blank. Pressing the power button again just brings me back to the first screen.
Just reboot into recovery by Adb. You disabled the power button selection. Now it will only shut the screen off. I normally just cycle through the menu andbit will come back on. But a reboot will fix it

To you and the OP, when this happens, press both volume buttons at the same time to re-enable the power button to make selections.

This is great info. I have always re-booted when this happened to me. Luckily, it was never when trying to recover from a boot loop.

I think u have to keep pressing(not hold) volume up(or down) to reenable the selection key. It will tell u if it did.

I've quoted the OP here but didn't really see an answer to this issue. I am running Unnamed 2.2.1 and don't really have any problems with the rom itself. I just notice this if I clear the dalvik cache.
Anyone know what this is?
edit: oops, I just realized I was not in my phone's forum. sorry. Anyway. any thoughts? I searched to try to find a solution and this is the only thread I could find that addressed the issue.

Pull battery, put it back in, press and hold volume up, volume down, and power button at the same time. Once Samsung splash screen pops up the first time, let go of the power button while still holding volume buttons. Should boot right into recovery.

Do a backup in recovery before factory resetting. This way, you'll still have all your stuff that you can extract.
If all else fails, you'll need to do this... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21011261

No you are absolutely right, those menus are in the UCMC1 stock 4.1.2
Decide if you want to back up or you don't care, if you do wanna backup there is some homework you have to do

you can also go to Samsung's website: http://content.samsung.com/us/contents/aboutn/kiesIntro.do
Download Samsung kies, install it and reboot your computer.
Put your phone in the download mode:
-pull the battery, but it back don't turn on your phone
-lunch Samsung kies on your computer
-hold volume up and volume down (while holding) connect the USB cable to your computer
-use your phone's volume up/down to continue to download mode
-once your phone is detected by Kies (may take a couple of connecting and reconnecting for your drivers to install and initiate)
Click Tools-> Firmware upgrade and initilazation
go that route, have the back up checked too

Loop boot without a root. Help needed.

Suddenly my phone (z710e) jumped into a loop boot.
It's not rooted, no custom stuff, no custom bootloader.
It loads fine, but after 1-2 seconds reboots.
I've already tried to unbrick it with no result, computer can't see my phone.
Help with an advice or a link or anything useful will be great!
Thanks!

If i remember correctly you can wipe cache from the stock recovery. Boot into hboot by holding down volume down and power. Use the volume buttons to highlight recovery and press power. Then you will see a little android or a red exclamation in a triangle. Press the volume buttons and power until options appear on the screen. If it gives you wipe cache, them wipe it. Other wipe options may/will remove your personal data so use caution and know the risks

Okay, remove your battery then replace after 10 seconds. Then hold volume down first, then while volume down is still depressed begin holding power as well. If you see the htc splash screen then it has failed. Battery pull and try again. Have you ever used adb on this device?

it doesn't matter if you have fastboot enabled
you can still have access to the bootloader when removing battery and putting it back

I've tried to remove battery and reboot before, nothing changed.
adb - no, did not used
Solution was - to disassemble it and assemble... After that phone booted normally. :victory:
Thank you all for your replies!
