Stuck in recovery mode - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need to recover a WiFi password from my old phone, but the power button is broken.
All I need to do is to root the phone so I can get in \data to recover the password.
After trying a lot of thinks, I discovered ADB, so I tried to reboot into download mode.
But instead of that, I did reboot into recovery mode :silly: , but I can't navigatie through recovery because of the broken power button.
And the device is not found anymore with ADB and fastboot, so I don't know what to do anymore.
Does someone have an idea?

Somehow I Can't get to EDL mode

I just officialy unlocked my bootloader because I Can't enter EDL mode somehow. Tried everything, EDL scripts, adb, holding the volume buttons...
The phone always restart the the system (it works fine). This is weird because I can't do factory reset either, it always boots back into my system.
Can somebody help me in this?
If you have an unlocked bootloader, why do you need to go to EDL mode instead just use fastboot.
Care to explain better?
The issue is: I flashed TWRP with fastboot. When I try to boot into it (Holding Volume up + power) i just get back into system.
This is just weird, as I can't do a Factory Reset either!
Download edl7.zip file from xda thread and go into fastboot mode and double tap on cmd file...your device will go in edl mode (red led blink)

EDL is for flashing fastboot files for locked bootloader as flashing through fastboot doesn't work. If your bootloader is unlocked you can just use fastboot. For TWRP are you getting any error while flashing it, if not you should boot into TWRP by holding volume down and power button with your phone turned off.

Hey man. Thank you for your help. But I think that I'm not being clear on what my issue is. I have some experience on flashing twrp and rooting. But never faced something like this before.
I can't even do a factory reset (from the settings menu) as the phone restarts and just goes back to the system. I flashed twrp but when I try to boot into it I get back to the system. I try to reboot into bootloader via the update menu and the phone resets and just get back to system.
It's just as if I can't acess the bootloader menu at all.
That never happened, try holding volume button before pressing power button. You can also try it through adb, make sure you have usb debugging turned on. For fastboot use adb reboot bootloader and for recovery adb reboot recovery

Yeah, tried that too. This is just way too weird to be normal. I'm sure that I did everything right.

Need help accessing fastboot on Oppo R11 CPH1707

I can't boot it into fastboot mode. When I hold the power and volume up buttons when my phone is off it bootloops until I let go where it boots normally. When I try to access it with adb it just restarts the phone. Does anyone know a fix?
root?
You must use the factory version.

Can't boot in fastboot mode

Hi,
I tried to flash lineageos 16 on my bkl09 emui9.
It was working but it was impossible to install app by play store... I tried many times to re-flash lineage img.
I'm actually blocked on TWRP. But it doesn't launch. When i start my phone, it boots on twrp, and the phone stays on the twrp boot screen but doesn't launch.
I can't turn the phone into fastboot mod by pressing vol- and power . It just restarts and reboot recovery twrp and block on boot screen twrp without launching...
I plug my phone on my computer, it reconized as adb devices but when I try to turn into fastboot mode by adb, nothing happen...
I hope there's a solution !
(and sorry for my english ... :/
power off the phone, put USB port in phone, press volume down key, now connect USB port to PC with volume down key press. it should boot to fastboot.

hi. Please, help, i cant reboot to fsstboot. If i do this from app or from adb my phone just reboots twice. I can boot into recovery and into download mode
Don't reboot into fastboot, boot into fastboot.
1st hold the up and down and power to start up so that it shows more than that "...is now booting". Then power off and press "down" and "power" with USB plugged to enter fastbboot. In fastbbot, flash the userdata.img and the cache.img (This cleans data and cache totally) from Huawei's updates, then you will be able to get into TWRP without being stucked.

How can i remove the factory mode on my device?

How can i remove the factory mode on my device, which is not allowing me to enter recovery mode?
When i turn my device on and hold the volume up button, instead of booting to recovery mode, the device boots into factory mode (which has a chinese factory mode menu). Due to this i cannot enter recovery mode without plugging the device into the PC and then running adb/fastboot then booting to recovery mode. Hence should anything go wrong with my device and it doesnt boot fully, i will be stuck with no access to a recovery mode. (as i wouldnt be able to use adb to get to the recovery mode)
P.S ive tried all combinations of buttons (i.e holding volume down as well with the power button) and it still goes to factory mode rather than recovery mode.
It is a mediatek device, can i unpack and make changes to the boot.img/system.img and then repack them and flash it back onto the device to resolve the issue or is there another way where i can boot to recovery mode without having to load up adb/fastboot first?
