Q. What is the process to access recovery mode - Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500

My son has Samsung Europa. He has locked his phone and cannot remember his password. I have tried to get into recovery to hard reset it but I cannot. I can get into download mode only? I've tried volume up, power, home. Ect. Nothing works.
Can someone tell me the correct procedure please

The europa doesn't have a hardware key combination to get into recovery.
You can use adb to get into recovery.
If you have android sdk installed. Open the command prompt and type "adb reboot recovery" without quotes.
Or you can download any other custom recovery like cwm and flash it in Odin.

Got it, I flashed firmware using Odin working well now. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction

If you flash cwm recovery us using odin it automatically boots into recovery.
If your on cyanogenmod or any other cm derived rom it'll have an option to reboot into recovery in the power menu.

If you want to reboot recovery from a stock rom or any rom with no recovery reboot option just root the phone and install the terminal app. Then open the terminal and type the following:
su (then hit enter/return on keyboard to get superuser)
reboot recovery (type that and hit enter/return again and the phone will reboot into recovery)

thanks
10x a bunch. you saved me thanks again everyone.

Vodafone Smart II / Alcatel V860 recovery problem

Hi,
About an week ago I bought the Vodafone Smart II, first thing I did was rooting it, so I can remove the apps Vodafone send with it.
After that I saw there was an update. Without thinking I did the update and after that I had no recovery anymore. Goes straight to "Are you sure you wanna delete all files and reformat?" *Not the real message, but something like that.
After searching here I foud a recovery for my device, but after flashing it, there was a new problem. The touch buttons aren't working anymore in the recovery.
Volume buttons are working well for scrolling through the menu items, but I can't select when with the touch home button.
Anyone knows what to do or try?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my grammar
I've same problem here...
the same problem here..........But i have someting to tell...
I buy 2 vodafone smart II one for me and another one for my girlfrind.

My phone is a black ship? LOL

Use this recovery and flash it with fastboot

If it doesn't work, flash the system.img, custpack.img and data.img of an original Stock rom, and after that do the update 2 (it will fix the touch buttons)
To regain the recovery and root in Update 2 simply use "fastboot reboot recovery" in adb and inside the recovery do the "update.zip" trick to root it
Thnx

I bought this phone for my kid. I also can't boot into recovery with buttons. But i did it within "android commander" reboot to recovery option.
No need to flash the old recovery image.

fastboot problem
Hi guys,
I am noob not only here in XDA developers but also on Android tweaking, so excuse me if I mess up with terminology.
What I wanted to do is to provide superuser permissions to my device but before that I decided to do some "warm up".
After performing a "reset to defaults" I updated to ΟΤΑ 2.3.7 update 5 and I messed up the bootloader and fastboot functionality, as the OP stated.
From now on, on rebooting and trying to enter recovery (power and +vol) I get the 1st attached screenshot.
I successfully got into recovery menu through pc command line tool (adb reboot recovery), see 2nd screenshot attached. Adb tool works fine, whatever I try using fastboot tool from my pc seems to fail.
Without this I am unable to flash a different recovery on my device, right?
Am I missing something?
Thanks, in advance for any further info.
I am at your disposal for any further detail I could provide.
Does not work for me. The cmd screen just flashes, I could not even read what it shows.

1. Turn off your phone.
2. Boot your phone in Recovery Mode (Volume Up + Power Button).
3. Install the zip file in the following link. h ttp: // ww w.m ediafire. com/download/sh541l2u2e78vl6/CWM6.0.27.z ip (DELETE ALL SPACES )
4.Reboot into the custom recovery you have just installed.
5.Go to toggle signature verification and check if it is enabled or disabled. If it is enabled, you HAVE TO disable it.
6. Select ROM.zip from your phone memory and flash it.
7.If you do not have the rom on your phone(The same ROM of which you deleted the system folder), then mount the usb storage from recovery with your phone connected to the PC. Transfer files to the usb storage or phone storage, which ever is convenient.
8.Boot into Recovery and flash the ROM.
9.Reboot phone and WAIT.
Let me know if that works :good:

Mr.Jaswal, if he really had to go to the mobile care center, he wouldn't be participating the XDA Forums. People go to the mobile care center only when their phone is hard bricked, and i do not think that is the case here. I'm sure the problem can be solved.
Reflash stock ROM again.You will get your system back.

Yes you can, as long as your phone is rooted.But make sure you use a custom recovery and not the stock recovery .Meaning,you have to flash another recovery like CWM Recovery. And please disable signature verification. Let me know what happens Reset to factory settings and do a full wipe before doing anything else though

Did you disable signature verification? Do that and try. If that doesn't work either you can use fastboot to install recovery, which will 100%.
Follow these steps :
1.USB drivers for your phone must be installed on a computer.
2.Android SDK must be installed on your computer.
3.Your phone must be connected to your computer via USB.
4.The ADB and Fastboot drivers must be pasted into the folder where Android SDK is installed.
5.Navigate to the Android SDK folder,press shift and Right Click, select the Open Command Window here option.
6.Then type the following after your phone is recognized by cmd.In most cases it is.(Type this command to start fastboot : "adb reboot bootloader" and then "fastboot devices")
7.After that type the following : fastboot devices
And then : fastboot flash recovery FILE.ZIP
8.And you are done Open your custom recovery with the key combination used to open your stock recovery.

the problem is not enter into recovery.
the first time i have flash wrong twrp. when i enter in recovery, by hardware procedure, in the bottom of screen i read version of twrp.. and is version twrp 3.0.0r2. this is a wrong version!
then.. i do flash from pc, flash operation success.. and ONLY with command "fastboot boot XXXXX.img" , where xxxx.img is name of recovery i have flash before, i can enter in correct twrp.
i don't know why, but i think i can't flash and fix the correct version of twrp. bhooooooooooo!
edit:
problem solved..
i have rename twrp img file in "recovery.img" and i have flash it in fastboot mode by pc..
i have try to enter in recovery with adbo command (adb reboot recovery) and phone reboot in correct twrp version;
then i have try to enter in recovery with hardware procedure (poweroff, volume up + power and release power when appear Mi logo, tap on "recovery") and it work;
and, in the end, i have try to nter in recovery mode by app "updater"
all works perfectly now!

Hi,, i've successfully unlocked my redmi 3 bootloader, and now there's root permission option in security app. I tapped it and confirmation prompt to get root acces appear, i click ok, then my device download something (my assume its root file), and reboot by it self after. Now i have rooted redmi 3 with unlocked bootloader but no superSU installed.
I want to install twrp recovery which is official now for redmi 3, i've read about dm-verity thing in our redmi 3 and still confused about it.
Can i just install twrp recovery thru twrp manager app from play store? If yes, can i go into twrp recovery via updater app.?
Thanks in advance.
you can install twrp by fastboot!
and then yes, you can enter in twrp by updater app

Congratulations you just followed the official method of getting root access successfully, root access is not from SuperSU but from MIUI itself, it's in the Security app.
You can, but the phone won't boot anymore then, because of the dm-verity thingy. So in another word, you have to disable it by flashing a modified boot image, I'm not sure but some custom ROM might have come with the modified image already, but MIUI ROM definitely doesn't, it is certain you'd get a boot loop after flashed TWRP and try to boot into Android again. That's the simple explanation. And yes you can go to TWRP from updater app, it's the same thing as writing 'reboot recovery'.

S3 reboot from download mode to recovery using software

Hello together,
I currently want to install a custom recovery twrp for lineage os.
I come to Download mode. But I can't reboot to recovery because the volume up button is not Working any more.
When I reboot in normak mode and from there to recovery mode using adb reboot recovery then the custom recovery is overwritten.
As I read this is a "feature" in the Samsung Software that recovery id overwritten with stock recovery during normal boot.
So the question is: can i boot from download mode to recovery with software. In odin mode i can't connect using adb. As there is no fastboot for Samsung devices I can't connect using a command line adb. So any chance to do it with defect volume up button?
Thanks for any ideas in advance.
Have you root access? I don't think, but if you have you can use "flashify" to flash twrp.img in recovery partition and then use "Reboot to recovery" to boot twrp. You find both in play store.
Edit: you can flash a old 4.1 firmware and use this https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695238 to have SuperSU and cwm, then in cwm you can flash twrp in zip file
Tapastalking
Thanks
Hi thanks for the idea. This was the other option but needs root. I thought there is an easy solution with something like adb in odin mode. In fastboot I could do that.... so I thoguht there might be a pendant with Samsung smartphones.
You need root to change the recovery.
Beamed in by telepathy.
It worked but Encryption failed and after the password lineageos hangs.
Is there any possibility to boot into Recovery from odin / download mode using adb or anything other.
With a jig i will come to download mode.

I am unable to flash TWRP using adb

I recently found my old HTC desire 526g and I decided to flash a custom ROM, but its volume buttons aren't working so I had to use adb, I am not really an good in these types of things. I tried to flash TWRP on my htc using adb (Followed a YouTube tut) but this is coming up.
I have attached a screenshot below.
After unlocking bootloader (probably would have done it earlier) did you allow the usb debugging.
2) try installing adb+fastboot, platform tools and your htc drivers and keep your recovery file in the platform tools and open cmd there use the appropriate command to flash it

Hello, Thanks for replying! I think I have done everything in correct manner, but still coming thiss error, I have rooted my phone too. BTW, is there any way you can navigate through system recovery without using volume buttons (as they are not working) I mean any commands, to navigate in recovery mode using adb

So if you're rooted so you can flash recovery via twrp app on playstore, or if magisk installer for twrp exists for your phone or by flashfire if you have your working recovery
'adb reboot bootloader' will bring you fastboot mode.
'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' (while TWRP image or CWM image is renamed recovery.img and placed into the fastboot folder)will bring you TWRP/CWM.
'fastboot reboot recovery' will bring you into TWRP or CWM installed.
'fastboot reboot' will reboot you phone in case you are stuck.

This comes later now lol, Due to my lack of knowledge and not enough patience, I tried to flash custom recovery through TWRP app, and I didn't found my phone model on device list, SO i just selected random htc model phone and now it is restarting over and over again, Is there any fix to this? I am obviously a complete noob in this field.
If possible find stock recovery of that firmware version (be serious abt version) and flash it by fastboot
2) find how to unbrick htc by downloading stock rom this will make you lose all data

Even If I find the this whatever you said, how am I supposed to fix it, as I mentioned,Volume buttons aren;t working and its stuck in bootloop, it won't past its manufacturers logo, so adb is no help in it, Only way to fix it would be to fix sound buttons. sad me, Well, R.I.P. HTC Desire 526g dual sim 2015-2021
I hope that this phone is not your primary driver

He unearthed his phone from some drawer, so this is not his daily driver.
