How can I get "Download mode" Samsung vibrant - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

it's dead plzzz help me to fix it

Are u referring to the market? if so... while on market page..press the menu button.

No. Download mode... hold volume down and boot it up, just hold down both until it pops up.

Why is it that there are like 4 different ways posted of how to boot into Download mode on each of the download mode threads but none of them work for me? Is it because I'm retarded and missing something simple or is this phone really that touchy to boot into download mode?
Can someone either post a very detailed account of how to boot the phone into Download mode or post a picture as proof that you have reached download mode successfully so I can at least know what it is supposed to look like should I ever make it there. Prob a good thing I havent made it there yet as I'd just end up flashing the wrong rom and mess up my phone, but it is just really bugging me that people have been posting about this, yet none of the methods in the posts have worked for me.
So far I've tried vol up+pow, vol down+pow, and vol up/down+pow with usb plugged in....Vol up+pow from the phone being fully booted and all the other combinations from recovery and the charging battery screen. What am I missing? Thanks to anyone who can point out my retardation, should it be my fault that it is not working for me.

I have recorded a video for my problem
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYLI8gUN3S4

I was able to root my Vibrant following the thread in here... u gotta hold down BOTH the volume up and down keys AND the power key.... it worked... ( use ur right hand...three fingers to make sure u do it right)

thank you
I tried these
Hold down; {volume both UP and DOWN + Power }
Hold down; {volume both UP and DOWN + Power } + plug in USB
Hold down; {volume DOWN + Power } = Recovery mode
Hold down; {volume UP + Power } = upload mode !
I tried more than 5 millions times what can i do
are there a ways open the internal SDcard then put update.zip and use recovery mode instead download mode ?

I had this same problem also the first day I got my phone...I installed an update.zip that caused the phone not to boot, and for the life of me could not get it into download mode to flash with odiin3. I read all the download mode post, so I thought maybe it was whatever I installed in the update.zip that cuased the button layout to change and thats why I couldn't figure it out. But I returned the phone...and now I still cannot get the phone into download mode.
To my understanding holding vol up+down and then hitting power sends you into recovery, which is totally different from download mode...So can someone clear this up...is the same screen displayed for download and recovery, just with different modes activated on the phone, or do they both show different pictures? Also again...I have still not reached download mode...so if you have a detailed account of how to do such...please post it...
Thanks.

Adb push update.zip /sdcard/update.zip
Do that while in recovery...
Also, I if vol down and power don't work try vol up because you may have flashes a European updated and their buttons are different. For me if flipped the volume buttons.
Oh, and hold the buttons through two cycles seems to help me

Ok, I made a sh**ty video just now, uploading to youtube...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9LYLoK1Qog
EDIT: The video isn't the best, the camera apparently didn't like the screen much and the lighting is bad but I think it gets the point across... Sorry for being so monotone...

I tried to open internal;Sdcard but I couldn't iconsider that is the solution
I need to give an authorization to do this like : Mount from the notification menu to open the internal sdcard
I wrote some commands by run so appear to me; permission denied
iam so sad
iam going to go to t-mobile store they might solve my problem

I seriously can't get my vibrant to download mode. I have check every combination and no I haven't flssh any firmware. I am in the stock one. This is serious problem. Could it be that it has being block in any way by tmobile?? But them there are some of you that can get into download more very easy. Mine just won't. I can get to recovery mode.
I have tried:
1. hold Volume Down then hold power - vibrant splash screen - reboot after 10 secs.
2. hold Volume Down + hold power at the same time - vibrant splash screen - reboot after 10 secs.
3. hold power then hold Volume Down - vibrant splash screen - reboot after 10 secs.
4. hold Volume Down then press power and release - vibrant splash screen - boot of firmware very slow.
5. All those previous combination's with cable plug into phone
6. All those previous combination's with cable plug into phone and computer
Please help!!!

I'm having the same problem. Simply cannot get into download mode. I have to believe that something else is going on here!

hi guys
I went to RadioShack I told them , I was honest to explain the problem that I downloaded a wrong firmware EU on my phone so the software broken
although they exchange the phone hhhhh
I am so happy now
i really won't back to rooting and "download mode" until hell freezes over
I'll be a polite customer just waiting the officially updates

Just rooting isnt that dangerous... it was the fact that it was the wrong firmware, not just that you flashed the firmware. Either way it's your choice and if you are happy with that more power to you, but the risk of doing anything with the rooting process is pretty low.

I've had good repeatable luck getting into download mode as follows:
1. Power down phone with no USB cable connected.
2. Once you see "good bye" connect USB cable.
3. Wait till battery indicator is visible, and you can see the current charge in green.
4. Hold vol+ and vol-.
5. Press power until screen goes black, then let go of power only.
6. Should see the yellow digger.
Again, your mileage may vary.

I can not thank you enough for this. Although I just took the battery out instead of powering down. So it appears the key is to making sure the battery indicator is on, and that you release the power button as soon as the screen goes black. I tried so many other combinations...even holding the power button past the screen turning black, but I got this on first try.
Thanks!

If you've got ADB setup just do 'adb reboot recovery'...

Is there a differnence between download mode and recovery mode?

hey nomadrider123,
i tried that still got the same green battery icon, no yellow download occur.

please see youtube video

I have heard that sometimes pulling your battery for 10 min or so has helped.
Or maybe rebooting your pc or a different usb port
Hm....have you tried only pressing the Vol. DOWN buttom? Try this:
1. Take out battery of phone
2. Press Vol. DOWN only
3. Insert the battery back to the phone. (Keep pressing VOL. DOWN)
4. Press POWER (Keep pressing VOL. DOWN)
5. Then, when you see the "Download Mode" icon, plug the USB (Note, you need to have the USB unplugged during the whole process for this to work, and only plug it in when you see the Download Mode icon. Also, when you plug it in, you need to have Odin opened ALREADY, and the drivers installed. Remember you don't only need the Samsung's Drivers, you also need the Nexus S drivers)
This seems the only way i can go into download mode. I made a thread a couple of days back, it have lots of info and suggestions on how to go into download mode, here it is:

Make sure your battery is not in your phone when you plug in the cable. If your getting the charging icon, I think your battery is in

rooting the galaxy tab 10.1

I've been able to get as far as installing Odin but when I try to enter recovery mode I press the up arrow on my volume and it shuts off! I just need to install the tab root zip . But like I said it keep shutting off I'm stumped can anyone help me. I tried following the you tube video step by step but its not quite going the way the video says it should be please help:O
i need help too actually.
My tab is running the latest firmware from Samsung but I want to try rooting for the first time. I found the guide on the forums but cant even get past the first step. I"ve tried powering off the device, holding down the volume down button and holding the power button several times, waiting for it to boot into the download mode but whenever I do this, it turns on,shows me the samsung logo,then shuts off.it does this in and endless loop until I let go of both buttons and it just reboots as it normally would.
Anyone have any ideas?
regardless, if your tab is powered on or off, hold down the volume down (left) button... then while still holding it... hold down the power button.... keep holding down both.... once you see the splash scree "Tab" in white... release power... keep holding volume down.
A couple seconds later you will be at the prompt to select download mode or recovery
I did not see this very clear in any of the guides, but it is the same for all 3 of my samsung devices.
Thanks so much, I feel dumb now haha. Its odd b/c thats not how the HTC boot menu works. you hold down both.

[Q] galaxy tab2 10.1 wont enter download mode

I have new galaxy tab 10.1 which I am planning to root, however I cannot get unit to enter download mode. I have tried unsuccessfully at least 20 times using the recommended method of turning the unit completely off then holding the vol-/power buttons. I press the vol- slightly ahead of the power button and hold. All I get is the samsung splash looping over and over with no download or recovery menu icons popping up after the samsung splash. Once I let go, the tab will go into android recovery mode with the option to reboot which takes me to where I started. I have followed all of the tutorials to the tee. Is there another way to get to download mode? Should I take it back if this indicates a more serious problem.
I have also done a factory wipe/reset to no avail. Will vol+ / power do anything?
thanks for your interest I would appreciate any help.

I seem to recall that at least one variant swapped the button around. In any case, it can't hurt to try volume up.
Here's what you do - first, shut the device off by holding power down and waiting for the confirmation.
Then, when it's off, hold the volume down button (to the left side, next to the power button.) Holding that down, press and hold the power button. When you see it light up, release the power button but continue to hold volume down until you see the recovery/download icons.
If doing that doesn't work, try volume up and power. Good luck!
Ill try your suggestions. thank you

I'm having a similar problem. I have a galaxy tab 10.1 wifi that I rooted immediately when I got it. I havn't used it in about 4-5 months. I've already done all the odin and download stuff, but now i want to update my cwm and install a JB rom (I'm currently using aokp). I'm having a funny problem with it now -- Its difficult to turn on and impossible to get into download mode.
In order to turn on my tab, I have to hold down the power, connect the charging cable and get the download screen to turn on, then hold down the power again, wait for the screen to turn off, unplug the power and hold the power button until hopefully it turns on again. And this doesn't always work, sometimes I have to do it a few times. But whenever i've tried do the same thing that gets the tab working normally -- only holding the down volume as well as the power, Nothing happens.
Now once its on and working, things work great, but turning it on is a pain and its impossible for me to bring up the download or recovery option.
I've also tried to 'reboot to bootloader' and that doesn't work, although i can still 'reboot to recovery'
Any tips?

I have almost the exact same problem...
Volume up puts me into download mode and i can connect with Kies but it wont do the JB update
Voulume down ... nothing just boots
if i let it try to do the OTA update it will freeze at the boot screen and stay that way till the battery dies.
To get it to work again i have to do almost exactly what was decribe above..
I have no recovery options at all.
also my Tab is "NOT" rooted

I had a similar problem initially... the screen would just flash the "downloading" message, but the tablet wouldn't mount/connect to my laptop. Here's the solution:
1) launch odin
2) connect usb cable to laptop only
3) power down tablet
4) hold down the power volume down buttons together
5) when you see the downloading message, let go of the power button
6) let go of the volume down button (now just displays "downloading" message, but nothing happens
7) press volume UP
8) you'll get a message about installing custom ROMs and be given the option to do so by pressing volume UP again
9) the tablet mounts and connects to odin
10) from there follow the instructions for flashing recovery via odin (i.e., using PDA button...)
FYI just double check the guides again regarding download and recovery modes. In the thread title you mention Tab 2. This is the forum for the original Tab not the Tab 2. Both devices have different methods and key presses to access the various modes.

Question How to save a black brick

I tried to root my phone by magisk.
After flashing a patched boot.img, it's failed to boot into system and I got a message that "the device need factory reset". I clicked yes and everything seems ok,I can boot into system. Then I tried to flash img again. So I boot into bootloader. Unfortunately, this time I got a black screen. The phone doesn't response me anymore.
I tried the software repair in xperia companion but It cannot dected my phone when I hold on volume down and plugged in it. I also tried hold on volume up + power but nothing happened. Hold on power key also no response. The led light always black, only become red when I connect it to my pc.
What should I so now and what's my phone's status? I searched something about 9008 mode and edl but I don't know how to check whether my phone is really turn into that status, my pc cannot dect my phone.
Have the same problem, only with the 5 iii instead. Still looking for a fix.
Try to switch the phone off; then just plug it into your PC without holding the Vol- key. It has happenned a couple of times with me that the phone does not want to boot up, with attempts to get it into FLASH mode by holding the key down throwing more confusion into the mix.
I think there is a low battery protection. Make sure the phone is charged up. Keeps the device from death during a flash.
Red led mean a very low battery. Keep it plugged (not to PC but to power adapter) for 2-3 hours and then try again a force reset.
Never, never try flash or other stuff under 50% battery
Also force restart is keep pressed vol+ and power button (or vol- and power button) till you fell a vibration.
Try this after a good charge

It might require experimenting with service modes and different chargers. I had an early Xperia 1 III that bootlooped while charging after setting up the fingerprint reader. It seems that charging is disabled during booting. It has to finish or enter a service/fault mode.
my phone is having this after doing fastboot --slot=b reboot recovery (which actually I had to do fastboot --set-slot=b and then fastboot reboot recovery). the notification light blinks red. have tried vol up + power, vol down + power, and vol up + down + power for like 30 seconds and nothing

I feel sorry for you brother...such a nice device...OK let's talk what happened, the state now your device is in is called hardbrick and it had a corrupted bootloader or no boot loader, but your device is still alive, in your PC in device manager it lists as Qs USB mode with some number after it like qsusb9008...now this device can only be brought to life with the help of a blankflash file which can flash your boot loader in snapdragon service mode...actually no snapdragon can be hardbricked permanently now you need appropriate blankflash file for your device.. Please don't open the device if some repairmen suggests to do JTAG nothing is necessary all you need is blankflash file which is shared to only Sony testers groups.... Who tests ROMs before release and they hardbrick so they share those files to them.... Please don't loose hope....it takes time but certainly it can be bought back to life... And dont try any flashing utility as there is no functional boot loader on it now and nothing will work...Sony won't provide that for sure and they will say then can only solve by mother board replacement ,don't believe therm your device is perfect it only needs blankflash file as it entered into final safe mode... I ain't regular on XDA if you need any info contact me via my mail [email protected] g ma I'll .com

Question [Solved] How to get into EDL without ADB or Fastboot

Long story short, I tried reverting from LineageOS 20.0 to 19.1. I successfully was able to revert back to stock using the MSM Tool, and started the process of installing LOS 19.1. Although I downloaded the LOS 19.1 installation files (lineage-19.1-20230426), I think I screwed up because I had started following the installation instructions for 20.0. I unlocked the bootloader and flashed dtbo.img and vendor_boot.img, then flashed boot.img (all under lineage-19.1-20230426). I then booted up LineageOS's recovery but had issues sideloading lineage-19.1-20230426-nightly-dre-signed.zip, so I loaded the image onto an SD card instead and sideloaded it that way.
My device restarted, however it won't boot past the "1+ Powered by Android" screen. I'm unable to boot into recovery or fastboot mode using the power and volume keys - only the "1+ Powered by Android" screen is displayed. While the device is powered off, I've tried holding tried down Vol Down + Power, then releasing Power once the OnePlus screen appears, Vol Up + Power, and Vol Up/Down + Power. Every variation, I only get the 1+ screen. I should also note that while on this screen, it's not recognized by ADB or Fastboot. The only option I have it to power it off by holding Vol Up/Down + Power.
I'm trying to get into EDL mode so that I can use the MSM tool once again, but it doesn't seem to be recognized. While the phone is powered off, I've tried holding Vol Up/Down + then power, but it immediately goes to the 1+ screen. The device seems to power on as soon as the USB cable is connected, so I've also tried Vol Up/Down then plugging in the USB cable. Same result.
Any recommendations or suggestions would be helpful.
I had been trying to get this thing to boot into EDL mode last night and a good chunk of today, and literally 5 minutes after I posted this, I got it to boot into EDL mode.
For anyone wondering, while at the "1+ Powered by Android" screen, I was able to get into EDL mode by holding down Vol Up/Down & Power, then once the screen shut off, I began tapping the Vol Up button several times. I knew this time was different because it didn't reboot to the 1+ screen, but the screen remained off (black). And for those who aren't aware, the screen is off while in EDL mode so there's no way (at least that I know) to tell it's in EDL mode other than it being detected by the MSM tool.
in trying to convert DE2118 to DE2117 i literary entered EDL mode like 5-6 times. (A11 wouldnt flash, A12 wouldnt boot, Lineage20 wouldnt boot, When downgraded A12 to A11 it would revert back to DE2118 rather than staying on DE2117, so on so forth). Everytime solution was so simple, hold Vol UP Vol Down and POWER button till screen goes OFF. Keep holding Vol up and Vol down and plug in USB C that puts device in EDL mode in less than 5 Seconds. This is fail proof method for anyone to enter EDL method as far as I have learnt.
Maybe it's just me, but this answer sound like it's coming straight from ChatGPT

Yeah, this was one of the first methods I tried, and it didn't work for me. I don't think it would make a difference but I have the DE117 and not the DE118.

LOL, no not you. You sound like an authentic human being. There was another commenter in this thread that was just a post chatGPT responses. Looks like the mods caught on and removed it, hence the confusion.
Phone off
Phone disconnected from PC
Open mstool
Hold volume up and down same time
Connect phone to PC while holding both bottoms
Release volume bottoms at same time after 5 seconds
You will see phone connected in mstool
That's it

Yeah, I had mentioned above that this was one of the first methods I tried, and it didn't work for me. I was able to get into EDL mode by holding down Vol Up/Down & Power, then once the screen shut off, I began tapping the Vol Up button several times. I marked the thread solved.
