Question Recovery mode OneUI 5 - Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

Hi. I try to boot the device to recovery mode but unable to enter recovery mode I'm sure I did the right way as per YouTube a description but still unable. did Samsung change the way to enter recovery mode?

It would be better if you mentioned what exactly you did rather than say you did it correctly. I hope you might knowing, now a days you needs to keep device connected to PC while reboot to recovery.

Power off device , then connect USB C cable to device. I connect my SanDisk SSD to the other end off the cable. It should work also with USB C stick.
Push volume up and power button and hold them till your device boots in recovery mode.
If you connect your device to a laptop ,it may start charging, making it more difficult to enter recovery mode.

In this case, don't power off but connect device to PC and reboot device (force reboot (keep holdingvol down +power) if you are in bootloop ) as soon screen goes blank, hold power + vol up and you will be in twrp

Go into Magisk.

Still the same, simple operation on my SM-S980U1(Android12): turn off the phone, hold both vol+ and power until you see displayed 'Samsung' - let the power button go and after a few seconds(keep pressing vol+) you should see the recovery mode screen right away.

The problem was from the USB cable after changing the cable the device can boot normally to Recovery
Thanks for all I appreciate your responses

Install Magisk anyway. You don't need to root. The options in my post will appear anyway.

My S22 Ultra (still on Android 12) does not require a USB cable to enter recovery. Just hold down volume up and power when turning on the phone.

I never heard it since A12 except, If you flash recovery/CSC OR If you select to reboot to recovery from adb/magisk/TWRP then it auto rboot to TWRP without connecting to PC
In rest of normal condition it does.

Perhaps it is only for people who have TWRP then? OR only Exynos? I have unrooted Snapdragon, and no USB cable is needed to get into recovery.

I don't think so
Which version you have?
Try rebooting to recovery from device booted on system just with combo key and check

I have a factory unlocked S 22 Ultra, model SM-908U1.
Did it yesterday with only using the volume UP button and the power button, in order to clear system cache. Did it again just now. Worked fine, just as it did on Note 10+ and on Note 8, etc.
Turn off phone.
Hold down volume UP button, then hold down power button at the same time.
When "Galaxy" appears (after Samsung), let go of power, but keep holding down volume UP.
After a few more seconds, recovery menu appears.
Phone is stock, purchased a this week. On October 1, 2022 Security patch.

May be it's only on "U" version

Galax S7 does not turn on – Nothing works

Hi,
today in the morning I couldn’t turn on my S7. It went off while charging overnight. Then I tried to hold the volume down and the power button together for twelve seconds and the S7 turned on. Unfortunately it just boots to the Samsung logo and nothing happens since then.
I wrote to the Samsung support and they told me to send it in. And they also said that I will lose my warranty if I make a hard reset. Is that true? Because the other thing is, that I really need some very important data from just one app. I already did a hard reset in the past and the data from this app didn’t get lost. I don’t know why (no cloud synchronization) but it worked. My plan was to try a hard reset but my phone is fully charged and I cannot turn it off to get into Recovery mode.
So basically I have three questions:
1. Will I lose my warranty if I do a hard reset?
2. Is there any possibility turn off my phone or to unload my battery? (And after that to try a hard reset.)
3. Does anyone have any idea how to save some date by any other way?
Thank you very much for any help!
Samsung are full of sh** if they told you you would lose warranty by performing a full reset, nothing of the sort
Warranty is checked by KNOX 0x0 = valid (Or 0x1 if it is tripped) which is only tripped by flashing something custom / rooting
Try booting into recovery and clearing only the caches, see if you can get back in that way
Otherwise, flashing the same stock ROM over the top with ODIN may work
Thank you for your answer.
Any idea how to boot into recovery mode? The problem is that in the moment I cannot turn off my phone and it's fully charged. I guess it would last some days to wait until the battery is empty. And unfortunately you can't remove the ****ing battery.

Volume up & Home & Power
Keep those buttons held in until the phone reboots, continue holding them and it should reboot a 2nd time, this time hopefully entering recovery
You can try the same for download mode, which is the same combo, only volume down instead of up

I did this combo. Following message did pop up:
"Warning
A custom OS can cause critical problems in phone and installed applications. If you want to download a custom OS, press the volume up key. Otherwise, press the volume down key to cancel."
First i pressed the volume down button and then nothing happened and it booted again until the Samsung logo. In my second try I pressed the volume up button and now I am here (see attached pics).

Well that's download mode where you can flash the stock ROM with ODIN, so you can at least flash stock again, which may work, but I would try recovery first though, the first combo I posted with Volume Up

I tried the combo with the vol up key and I came to the exact same menu which I described above. (Then I pressed the volume down key and the phone boooted to the Samsung logo).
Now only the combo with the vol down key works. If I press vol up + home + power nothing happens. I don't get this ****.

OK, it's possible that recovery got corrupted then
Right, so grab a stock ROM from here
http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?q=G930F
Extract and Load the .MD5 into ODIN AP section
Put the phone into download mode and hit start
It should reboot hopefully into a working OS
if not, try entering recovery again

No, as I said earlier, warranty is only affected if you flash something custom
Stock Samsung ROMs are not custom
For a very short time my phone startet adnroid, but everyhing was black und I just saw the notifications bar. I couldn't do anything. After that my phone did a reboot and now I am again at the Samsung logo. The combi with vol up still doesn't work.

You managed to download and flash a stock ROM in that short time?
Might need to flash the entire set of files from the ROM download in ODIN, which I think might reset the phone with one of them (HOME I think)
EDIT - Another option would be firmware recovery using SmartSwitch
http://www.samsung.com/uk/smart-switch/samsung-desktop-app.html
Good day.
Recently happened to me something similar, while i was playing, the phone rebooted and got stuck at samsung logo.
The phone was rooted, with TWRP and Xposed.
Really don't know what happened. At the time, in panic, i flashed a stock ROM and the phone never booted again. Just a blank screen and a blue led.
I sent my phone to Samsung for warranty and 1 month later (5 days ago), got it back working, even with KNOX 1x0.
In most of Europe, Samsung cannot charge you anything even if the phone was rooted, with the exception if it was root that directly caused the malfunction.
I am having the same problem. the combo with Vol up does not work. Any further help, PLEASE?

Don't hold the power button, just home + volume down. Hold those two buttons down, it may reboot a couple times but it should eventually get into download mode.
If not, try home + volume up to get into recovery (stock or twrp, either should work.) From there, try factory reset.

There's an option to flash an update from sdcard in stock recovery. I think it needs to be an OTA update. Not entirely sure, but you could try doing a search for instructions on that.

HTC u12 +NO RECOVERY MODE

Guys I have a problem, I forgot the screen key, and now I do not know how to come back again, what I try to do is this:
1- I turn off the phone
2- I press the power button and it barely vibrates (or the LED goes off) I press VOLUME DOWN.
3. That takes me directly to the Bootloader (where I can see some htc information and little else)
4. After that I press volume down, until reboot to recovery, and there I get that

And this is my problem here I can not enter the recovery mode, because remember that the htc u12 + can only press 1 button, that is, you CAN NOT PRESS POWER + VOLUME UP at the same time, I do not know what to do
The U12+ doesn't have a recovery mode. It uses the A/B partition scheme, similar to the Pixel and Pixel 2 devices. They don't use separate recovery partition, because the second system slot acts as essentially its recovery.
What do you need recovery for? TWRP isn't available for the device yet. And when it is it will be built in as a boot image.

Do you have an SD card? You can place the RUU zip file on the SD card and flash that from download mode.
RUU can be found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/u12-plus/how-to/collection-htcu-u12-ruu-firmware-t3794664
Follow the instructions in post 4 for using an SD card.
The other option is to just run the RUU from your computer, but that may require you to grant access from the phone, not sure.

Stock recovery
That's supposed to happen. Stock recovery doesn't allow you to make any modifications on the device itself. You need a custom recovery for that like TWRP, which unfortunately isn't available for the U12+ at the moment. But all you have to do to reboot the device from recovery mode is hold the power button until it reboots in to the system.

Also, download mode has replaced recovery mode on any device since the HTC One M9. Prior to the M9 you'd be able to reboot etc. From recovery mode. Which HTC changed with the M9.

How To Guide How To: Unlock Bootloader

How To Unlock Bootloader Galaxy A12.
Code:
*** Disclaimer
I am not responsible for any damage you made to your device
You have been warned
- Go to Settings -> About phone and find your build number.
- Tap on your build number 6 times until you see “You’re now a developer”.
- Go in Developer options > enable OEM unlocking.
- Shut Down your Phone
- Hold Vol + & Vol - and Connect the USB-C Cable
- Device will boot in DOWNLOAD MODE.
- Long press volume UP to unlock the bootloader.
( This will wipe your data and automatically reboot your device! )
- After Reboot the Bootloader is unlocked.
I have done exactly this and the Samsung A12 is now in a boot loop. I have already tried the following:
- Press the power button for a long time.
- Press vol-down+power and if it is turned off only power (https://www.naldotech.com/how-to-fix-bricked-samsung-galaxy-a12-stuck-in-bootloop/)
- Vol-down + vol-up and connect C-USB
- Some variations on this.
UPDATE:
When I tried Vol-down + vol-up and connect C-USB again, it worked and I unlocked the bootloader.

Vol-down + vol-up and connect C-USB. You can boot to download mode by this way
It’s how easy Samsung devices are OEM unlocked
1. Tap Build number 7 to 10 times ... You’re now a developer
2. Take software updates
3. Developer settings
4. Allowance of OEM unlocking
5. Start Heimdall (Odin) on desktop to tether your A12 thru USB-C
6. <Vol+> + <Vol-> to reboot to Download mode
7. Long press <Vol+> to unlock bootloader
<Vol+> + <Vol-> + connect C-USB to reboot to Download mode
Hi, I'm new to all this and hopefully I'm just missing something obvious. When I put my A12 into Download Mode, I have no option for a volume-up long-press, as seen in attached photo. I have an A125U model if that information is at all relevant. Developer mode is on, and OEM unlocking is enabled. Not sure where to go from here, any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Will this method work on an A12 from ATT that's SIM-locked?
..

Hi, I'm new to all this and hopefully I'm just missing something obvious. When I put my A12 into Download Mode, I have no option for a volume-up long-press, as seen in attached photo. I have an A125U model if that information is at all relevant. Developer mode is on, and OEM unlocking is enabled. Not sure where to go from here, any insight would be greatly appreciated!View attachment 5320891

I have the exact same problem.
OEM unlock is toggled ON in developer options.
I cannot get VolUP_VolDOWN + USB to computer to produce download mode so I can unlock my bootloader. All I get is the charging battery %.
Is there any solution to this?

Same issue tmoble is trying to tell me it automatically unlocked my boot when I Sim unlocked which I'm sure is not true it didn't wipe my data for one
Has anyone tried to use fastboot and use the commands?
Also afterwards, has anyone been able to fastboot boot <kernel_initd.img> to bootstrap over USB from PC?

You always get "entering fastboot mode..." when you see that screen you are in fastboot.

[Help Fixing unusual bricked] samsung sd-t510

Hello everyone im glad to be at your presence but not for great issue.
Ive bricked my tablet, softbricked that turned into hardbricked. Long story short:
1 unlocked boot loader
2 installed twrp
3 installed wrong version of postmarketos
4 cannot boot into OS but in recovery mode
5 in recovery mode Ive updated twrp with a unstable version
6 cannot boot in recovery mode
7 cannot boot into twrp, cannot boot already into OS
8 RESULT: completly fail, not recovery mode, not twrp, not os. Only bootloop samsung logo and the message warning that the boot loader is unlocked, forever.
9 solutions failed count: pushing buttons to enter download / recovery mode, using fastboot from the pc, using adb from the pc in both cases the program awaits devices forever never showing the brick, already change usb port and cable.
your samsung device have fastboot? sure it's sd-t510?
Hello, sorry i mean sm-t510
Im not sure if it has it , but I have run it from windows as last resort to unbrick the device, I ve run adb but nothing.
Re-flash tablets's Stock ROM by means of ODIN. Requires matching Samsung's Android USB drivers gets installed on PC.
you don't need adb. you can enter odin download mode when tablet is powered off completely. hold volume down + power for ~ 30 sek to force power down. if nothing works let battery drain (may take up to ~ 7 days)
when device is powered off, press and keep holding Volume down + plug in usb wall charger until you see blue screen. then press volume up to confirm odin mode. you can now let charge for ~ 5 min
for flashing connect to PC, install drivers, use Odin3 for full flash BL + AP + CP + CSC.
Note the current bootloader level is important when flashing stock ROM. you can't downgrade bootloader, choose wise which Android version you want to flash.
for example
RP SWREV: B:5 = 5
T510XXU5CVG2 = 5
https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-T510
IT cannot, by any means login in bootloader or dowload mode. I already tried pushing and mantaining vol up + power button and any other combination.

let it boot-loop until battery is drained (see my previous comment)

Already did that, i gets in the same loop, even I disconnected the battery , reattched it , let it run dry, just connecting the power cable. Everything went to bootloop forever until the battery run dry.
if you disconnected battery (you did open back cover?) press and keep holding Volume down + plug in usb wall charger + connect battery (in this order)
you can use a hair tie or something.
other combination for older Samsung devices: Volume Down + Home + Power
the volume keys determining boot mode are read from aboot_init() function. this is way before boot or recovery mode is loaded. if you can reach boot-loop, for sure you have passed aboot before.

Im for sure that I ve pushed the vol down , vol up+ power, the vol up and down combination in the exact same order you gave me and it keep looping for centuries
... then fix your volume down button
as I said odin mode is decided from sboot. it will work. unless you flashed modified sboot* with download mode forcefully disabled, like retail or MDM software.
*partition name varies abl/sboot/aboot/uboot/lk
press and keep holding before device get powered on by USB plug:
- VOLUME_DOWN and HOME keys for old samsung devices
- VOLUME_DOWN key for new samsung devices
Update: I gave you wrong advise. This tablet is bit different from other Samsung devices. as you already pointed out it requires both volume keys for download mode.
Magendanz said:
UPDATE: With the right timing, you can break out of a boot loop into Download Mode...but it's tricky:
Insert USB Type C cable connected to your PC
Press and hold the Power and Volume Down keys for exactly 7 seconds (hard reset)
Release the Power key and press and hold both Volume Up & Down keys (enter Download Mode)
If you don't see the blue bootloader unlock warning screen, keep repeating the above two steps
The trick here is that you're trying to time your switch to the Download Mode keys for the exact moment the hard reset takes effect. If you see the boot logo while still holding the first key combination, it's too late. If you switch too early, you won't trigger the hard reset.

It took me an eternity to enter in dl mode. It is so annoying. Thank you for the pain is relieving, now i can sleep.
But, it is recognized by odin added, and is stuck in setup connection.
re-install drivers. maybe use another usb 2.0 port. try older version of Odin3.
https://developer.samsung.com/galaxy/others/android-usb-driver-for-windows
https://odindownloader.com
Now it says unknown usb device, on windows, device descriptor request failed , in device manager
same for every usb port? do you have oem samsung cable? boot linux from pendrive and double check with 'lsusb'

Yes, my guess is that after 24 hours in dl mode, the tablet is going unstable
there is mentioned a timeout not sure this affect the device descriptor, though. you should see something like 04e8:685d device, without that usb connection you can't flash anything.
Now that you know how to enter download mode, should be no problem to repeat.
note there is a fork of heimdall with precompiled binaries for windows/linux you can try (in case Odin3 deny flashing even on successful connection)
https://github.com/amo13/Heimdall/releases
The thing is that the exact timing for entering dw mode is like win the lotery. I managed to enter in it only 2 times in 2 weeks. Technically is not bricked but practically it is... I cannot enter it anymore.
I believe usb port plays a role here. forget the power button, only use volume keys + usb cable to power on. maybe replace usb jack pcb board?
