Hi everyone,
I have a rooted 2017 HD 10. It's been running fine for a few months, but out of the blue without me touching anything, it randomly soft-bricked itself. Originally I was able to adb connect it, but stupid me selected factory reset... Now I'm not able to connect to it anymore. I tried booting into recovery, but none of the key combinations worked. I'm wondering if anyone knows how to boot into recovery properly? I tried volume up + power, volume down + power, power first then volume up or down etc, none worked. Basically it only turns on with power button. Combinations won't boot it at all—it just stays shut.
Thanks in advance!
Just found how to do it, decided to leave it here in case anyone needs this. Multiple websites point to volume up + power, but when it doesn't work, press down all three keys (power, volume up and down), release once amazon logo appears, and it'll boot into recovery.

hello, i have a starmobile engage 8 tablet from Philippines that I was able to root. i guess the bootloader is LOCKED, there is NO RECOVERY, and I can't install one. usb debug mode is unfortunately DISABLED without thinking that my tablet will have problems. when i restarted the phone, it showed me splash screen/starmobile logo then followed by a blank screen. after around 5 minutes, it restarts and then same thing happens.
what can be done in this case? please help!:crying:
keep trying to fix it!

I feel your pain, I have the same unit with a different issue but my temporary fix might help you.
Rooted my phone and installed a game(was in the middle of copying a file to the obb ), forgot to activate modded play store and restarted the tablet trying to do a quick modded play store install. after the stupid move My tablet now keeps restarting and stops after the star mobile logo and restarts again and it just keeps restarting.
What I did is I randomly press the following keys to attempt finding the safe mode: home+volup, home+voldown, pow+volup and etc... I finally found the safe mode and did a factory reset which did nothing to fix the restarts. Try not doing this!
Then I pressed and hold both volume keys when the star mobile logo shows up and the red star mobile logo turns blue completing the boot process for some reason starting the tablet.
As of today my engage 8 still does the infinite restart if I restart it but I can bypass it with the method. Hope it helps you.
Planning to do a cache/dalvik cache wipe when my research is done to try and fix this tab, good luck to me...
thanks for your reply... what i thought was that starmobile technicians do not want to share the key combinations. and im glad that you figured it out. can you remember that specific combinations you used? so that i can try then...
just so you know, i sent the unit to star mobile for repair and they managed to fix it. unfortunately i made the same mistake so i just dumped it.

There are only a few buttons on the phone. I mean, if you have 3 buttons, there are 3 combinations.
Assuming your phone has 3 buttons try:
Power + Volume Up
Power + Volume Down
Power + Volume Up + Volume down
If your phone has 4 buttons also try:
Power + Vol Up + Home
Power + Vol Down + Home
Power + Vol Up + Vol Down + Home
NOTE: Press ALL the buttons and hold in the same time.
NOTE2: Try the combinations in the order from top to bottom
Heya, so my girlfriend's galaxy note Tab 10.1 is stuck at bootloop since a while, if you turn it on it keeps restarting. Its completely stock and we can't enter the recovery (idk how to), so far we tried pressing power and volume up button together and it only takes to the "downloading". How to get into recovery and factory reset?
Boot into recovery
I had a similar issue but then realised that the instructions I had been following were slightly inaccurate i.e. hold down power and volume up...... what worked for me was hold down power and volume up, when logo comes up, release power but hold on to the volume.
lets know if you already tried that.

Tried this?
or this

phone :
htc one s
rooted
cyanogenmod
CWM recovery v6.0.5.1
so the story is :
i forgot to charge my phone last night and it ran out of battery and died. when i plug it into charger or PC, it immediately boots into CWM without pressing anything and wont enter anything else. it also doesnt seem to charge in CWM and when i try to power it off, it simply goes into CWM again. simply put, i cant turn it off or charge it. phone was working perfectily fine before.
what i'm trying to do now is trying to boot it into bootloader and try to charge with fastboot script (i did it before) so i can get enough voltage to boot it into the OS. but the phone refuses to enter bootloader by any means and simply goes back into CWM.
tried holding the vol down + power button for 10 secs till it restarts, release power and hold it again while keeping the vol down pressed. but it still enter CWM (usually this is what i do to enter bootloader)
i cant restart to bootloader from CWM either (any buttons to power off, restart, boot to anywhere from CWM simply brings it back to CWM)
holding only the power button till it restarts also brings it back to CWM.
holding the vol down + power button without releasing them simply gives me screen flicker and it loops that way. i assume that made the phone soft reset repeatedly?
holding the vol down + power and releasing power once it resets and tapping power also brings it back to CWM.
here's a simple video showing the phone : youtu.be/PDvskMZIHAM
any help would be appreciated. thanks.
solved : as i noticed that the phone charging led turns on whenever i hold the power button. i tried holding the power button for god knows how long while plugged in. i released it once my finger was tired and cant hold it anymore and it boots into cyanogenmod.
I tried rooting Cloudfone ThrillHD (android 6.0) via manual, when process was done. My device is now stuck in this endless boot loop, i tried pressing key combinations simultaneously (power + volume up & down), it shows 2 options (factory = volume down and recovery mode = volume up) and the device would stuck in this state, but when i press any volume keys the boot loop starts.
Is there anything I could from this?
any help would be very very appreciated.
this may sound unrelated.
take out the SD card and try again.

i already did that, it is still in boot loop.
does taking out the battery, putting it back, holding volume down button before pressing power button (while holding down volume down) works? i faced a similar experience with my note 3 back then when i'm rooting. mine worked. hope your phone responds the same as well.
stuck in boot always,click the recovery mode then black no working,connecting pc only charging...that's my q
Anyone got links to the original firmware KD7-H6211FQRSTU-Q-GL-200429V276?
Hey Guys,
I need help with Nokia G10 TA-1334. After the loading screen the display becomes black. Only thing I can do is holding the power key and the menu appears with lock, switch off and restart. Tried to reach the recovery mode but no key combination would bring it. The only menu I can reach is the fastboot menu, but the debugging mode is not switched on so the adb commands are not available. Can you please tell me a working key combination for the recovery mode. I also tried flashing it with sp flash but again it is not working. I tried again different key combinations. The phone is connecting to the pc normally but without the screen I can't do anything.
So Far I Tried these:
With plugged in cable:
Holding Power + Volume up is only restarting the phone
Holding Power + Volume down - fastboot ( but there is not any additional menu)
Holding Power + Volume down and when android logo comes holding only power and fast press volume up
Holding Power + Volume up and down = nothing
Hi Ivan, my G10 has had exactly the same problem as yours since Friday. Have tried the same things as you and also had no success. I tried draining the battery to flat but that didn't work either. Have you had any luck finding a solution? Thanks, Tony
For now nothing, the draining wont work probably because I disassembled the phone and disconnected the battery. After that no change has occured. I hope that somebody will provide a working key combination for the recovery mode.
hello, nokia g10 and the same problem, did you find a solution?
Hi guys.
Did you find a solution to this problem?
Same Problem, we can reboot to Android Bot with NO COMMAND prompt, but hard to enter recovery menu with the combined power key & Vol+ key.
Is there someone know the new version how to enter recovery menu? Tks.
