The android with the red triangle is the way the recovery should be, AFAIK. Press and hold the power button then press vol up while holding the power button and see if a menu pops up in recovery.
Yes, it loads Fastboot options no problem. - WHEN I select recovery it shows the android with the red triangle and no further options and no longer responds.
Note my first day at the rodeo. - Didnt think I wouldnt be able to recover if I crashed the navigation framework.
Ok, Found the problem. (The volume up button was stuck in the down position and not allowing any commands

No, it bricked the phone. Had to hard reset. - I had a stuck "volume up" button

Gotcha. Wasn't sure if that was the case or the actual button was just stuck and caused the issue but was successful once remedied. I was hopeful. Lol

okay guys looking for the easiest way to boot into recovery / bootloader
would prefer both physical on the phone and adb commands
if you would be so kind
Volume down+power = BOOTLOADER
adb commands are the same across nearly every device
adb reboot recovery
adb reboot bootloader

thanks, i never had to use adb with my captivate or infuse so i figured i would ask .
also for some reason sometimes volume down +power wont work to get me into the bootloader.
I use Quickboot...it has many reboot options, including reboot into Bootloader and Reboot into Recovery.
Another simple way is to pick restart from the power menu then just hold volume down as the phone restarts.

You have to hold volume down the entire time until it gets to the bootloader. On the Captivate you could release it as soon as the splash screen came up but on this HOX you have to continue holding.

If the phone is powered off when you want to go into bootloader, you have to make sure "Fast boot" in Settings>Power is unchecked.
Going into bootloader using power+vol down requries the phone to be fully powered off or a reboot. Fast boot is actually just a deep sleep mode and not a full power down.

That method never seems to work for me. Holding the vol down immediately after selecting restart, or even holding the vol down while picking restart, it just boots normally.
I have to power down (with fast boot unselected in Settings>Power) then hold vol down while pressing power button, in order to get to bootloader.

I am trying to boot my samsung captivate into the boot loader. I've tried the physical key combos mentioned in this thread and there not working.
I tried using ./adb reboot bootloader but the phone does a regular reboot.
I am able to get a splash screen with that says "Download" and has a picture of the Android shoveling, by pressing both volumes and plugin in the power.
But if i do this, the device is not visible when I used ./adb devices
The question is how can i get this to reboot into the bootloader preferably from the terminal so that I can unlock it and install CWM.
Any advice would be much appreciated!

This forum is specific to the HTC One X/XL. You need to go to the forum specific to the Samsung Captivate. The key sequence is likely different, and getting advice from people with a different device can quite possibly lead get you the incorrect info.

Quick question: I'm trying to reboot my android STB in bootloader mode to check its lock/unlock status... Obviously I can't use the Vol Down + Power button in a STB...
So I tried "adb reboot bootloader", which didin't seem to work. I mean, it powered down, then powered up in a screen with the brand's logo, but nothing else happened, and the command "fastboot devices" didn't find any device either (while before that, "adb devices" showed the device normally). Also, I didn't get any unrecognized devices under Device manager which would denote that a new "device" got connected into the system...
I then tried "adb reboot recovery" which works fine...
So what does this situation mean for my STB?
Howdy XDA, lurking for a few weeks now, first time posting.
I have a Vodafone Smart 2, which runs pretty much the same hardware as the Alcatel V860. I previously rooted it myself, removed crapware, blah blah. This worked fine until I updated the firmware through the Firmware Upgrade Manager, which restored all the crapware on my phone and somehow removed my root privileges.
Now, when I try to root using the same method I used to root the phone previously, I run into an error. Normally, I would root from a zip file on the SD card through the bootloader/recovery menu. Now, when I try to access this menu, I'm greeted with a message stating: 'All data will be lost, continue?' in various languages.
This obviously doesn't allow me to root my phone through the familiar method, which was, as far as I know, the only method to root this particular type of phone. I have tried using the sdk manager but this came up as a dead end.
I would be extremely grateful if anybody can give me any information or ideas as to how to root this phone again?
Cheers.
Maybe you're pressing the wrong buttons? I remember that if I pressed volume down + power button instead of volume up a different thing happened.

Hi there, thanks for replying.
Normally I would hold the power & the volume + buttons, which would bring me to the bootloader menu. Doing so now just brings up the 'All data will be lost, continue?' message.
Interestingly enough, holding the power & the volume - buttons causes the phone to freeze on the android startup logo, which leaves me with no other option than the pull the battery and try again.
Can't you use adb reboot recovery or sth like that?

Hi there, using the command 'adb reboot-recovery' simply refreshes the list that first comes up when you execute adb.exe within Command Prompt.
I am able to reboot using the 'adb reboot' command though, so the drivers must be in working order.

Hi there
do what you did using "adb reboot" dos command, but type in " adb reboot recovery " instead while the phone is on, phone goes off and on into boot menu , where you can do your rooting(update.zip) from sdcard.
hope that helps you,
Hi everyone im stuck on the resurection of my device (moto g 2013 8GB updated to 5.1 with [5.1 GPE 1 click] from This forum.
I've tried everything or almost for now, cant get it out of that loop.
*Battery pulling.
*hard buttons combinations.
*fastboot and ADB. (not in fastboot mode so.. And as i did flash de 1click before the loop USB Dbgn isn't enabled)
*i think i've tried every toolkit on this forum.
*Raped google search for over a week trying every posible method-
*Only thing left is to take it to church for a blessing. but im not a believer D:
ADD: i've rooted with a "boot.img" from this forum i think it was a 2015 file.
before this i had not 1 issue with the phone. just unlockd the bootloader a few days ago and updated to 5.1 from 5.0.2 becouse of a wifi issue (unknow mac adress) i had to reboot it like 10 times until it appeared again (original mac adress from device, still wrote it down i have it somewhere.)
I think this would be my first post on this forum and it took me over a week to do it becouse this (asking you-comunity) is my last resource.
PS: i had it going betwen 5.0.2 and 5.1 like 4 times to try solving the wifi issue.. only thing it got me was the "line" on the screen like if it where a problem with vertical sync. (i think you are all very familiar with that issue after downgrading the kernel i think.)
the phone just turns it self on everytime. (everytime)
i was able to boot into recovery before the last flash touching the place were the hardware volume button goes (with a neddle) untill it didnt workd anymore and i send it to a store to repair the volume rockers. still no recovery or bootloader boot.
my pc (laptop with 7-32bit recognices it as xt1032. and the one with xp as MTP.)
I've installed every posible thing that i found to bring it back to life even the android sdk full every pkg from 5.0.2 to 5.1 and extras, Motorola drivers and ADB. tried online searching automated from windows and listing it from a folder with the google one. tried adding the hardware manualy and have every ADB thing that i found on device mng but everyone is wit a yellow triangle. (No USB Debuging enabled so why bother anymore.)
I think that's about it.

i cant enter fastboot mode or give any order to the phone trough fastboot on a console.
I have installed a TWRP touch, just cant acces it. dont know if it is the hardware button (Vol -) or what.
so it dosnt show up on fastboot devices nor adb devices.
am i not understanding something ?

If the volume rocker is not broken, then you should be able to enter fastboot mode. Hold power button until phone turns off completely.

did that, tried pulling the battery off and holding the keys (down and power or just vol down) and starting it. no way it goes into bootloader or recovery. When i do any of those things the phone just powers back up it self and boots into system or tries to, and get stuck in bootloop.
Im gonna try a gtag cable or something like that tomorrow from a friend. would it work to send it to bootloader or recovr?

i think it's not repaired properly, or the last time i flashed it fastboot might have send a command like "fastboot normalboot" or something like that. Would that be stoping me from entering recovery mode or fastboot?

The problem is how I wipe it. I mean, I I tried all keys but can't go in screen to wipe it.
Doing a long (10+ seconds) press on the power button while holding some combination of volume buttons should get you somewhere.

I really doesn't know but I.g is a mtk.
You're quite sure that when the lock screen is showing that there is no ADB running?
Does the device make any reaction when plugged into a desktop?
A slim chance, but you might try rebooting it and after it starts rebooting, but before it gets to the lock screen, reset it.
If you do this a bunch of times (>8) it might think that it can't boot and will go to recovery.
If nothing works, you're going to have to open it and find test points or disable the flash so that it goes to the ROM bootloader.
Step one, is using lsusb -v or UsbView.exe to know what you've got.

Yes, no adb running. When connected it only charges. I will test everything you said when I go to pc since I need sleep soon, but I will reply again as soon as I test everything. Thanks for helping me btw.
Assumed ADB is successfully installed on desktop computer there is a chance to enable ADB on mobile device when having booted device in recovery mode.
1. Unplug USB-cable from device
2. Boot device into recovery mode
3. Connect desktop computer and mobile device via USB-cable
4. On desktop computer sequentialy enter the coomands
Code:
adb shell
echo "persist.service.adb.enable=1" >>/system/build.prop
echo "persist.service.debuggable=1" >>/system/build.prop
echo "persist.sys.usb.config=adb,mtp" >>/system/build.prop"
reboot
Hello,
At one point this tablet was working just fine. It sat for a while and now it boot loops. Shows the amazon logo and auto restarts.
I can hold the proper volume up or down key and it says "Recovery Mode" on the bottom left but never enters into it.
Oddly enough I wasn't screwing around trying to do something I shouldn't have, but for the life of me I can't figure out what the deal is. Have anything I can try to possibly recover it? or is it straight to the bin.
Thank you in advance.
Take care,

Bootloops are definitely a hassle sometimes. On your device your can either play the button game , watching the device closely and holding the the right button combo when the device goes black in hope that the device will boot into recovery or fastboot when it starts the bootloop again. The easiest thing for me to do sometimes is wait for the battery to drain completely dead then plug the device into the computer while holding the button combination to enter fastboot or recovery. The crappy part is waiting for the battery to drain. I did do a google and learned that Giza uses vol down button and pwr button to enter recovery. But with a dead battery it's likely one will only need to hold vol down button while plugging in the device. If it's in a bootloop it's probably not necessary to hold power button as well, just need to hold the vol down button at the time. I will say with a fair amount of confidence that the device is not a loss cause. Good luck, hope you get it working.

I had a weird assumption that I had to wait for the battery to drain. Its just weird this thing happened when it was working just fine.. usually I know when I screw something up pretty good.
I'm more curious on what command I need to be running and constantly retry to load up TWRP via fastboot.
Thanks!

From what you have described issuing any command from a computer to the device wouldn't be possible as the device is bootlooping. I could not find any info on button combination to enter fastboot only recovery. from recovery there is a reboot to bootloader or fastboot option. that is your best bet. I have messed with at least a few different kindles in my time but there is always someone out there that has done more and may have another option they can add.

Nothing, I can guide you there flawlessly. If you concerned about privacy no problem.

I don't think you are the best person to guide on this one. You don't even seem to know what an Amazon tablet is, considering you suggested to fastboot boot when that cmd was patched back then in 2015.
@likwidchz If you're able to access fastboot thru boot-fastboot, erase preloader with fastboot erase boot0, reboot and run bootrom-step.sh again.

Would you happen to be on IRC or some discord group?
I have done about ~7 of these tablets Suez/Giza but when something goes south, its not clear to me which step I need to start back from. Having a side conversation might help. In the end of the tablet is done, I am not going to be too broken up about it. But it's not a lost cause yet.
Thank you for the assistance! Much love.
--Take care.
