Hold power button and volime down button when phone is turned off. Then when it vibrates, continuously press the volume button to enter TWRP

Can't boot into recovery

Well it appears I had a bad flash with cm10 and the inverted gapps. I tried holding down volume up home and power to boot into recovery but it just tries to boot into the phone. I also tried volume down home and power same thing. I finally tried volume up volume down and power and still booted into the phone. Anyone have any ideas?
Did you let the buttons go as soon as the phone vibrates?

Are you able to boot into ODIN download mode? If so, you can flash CWM and then pull the battery after and go straight into recovery.

I wasn't able to do anything without using the toolkit to reboot into recovery. CWM is installed but I can't seem to boot into it. I used rom manager to reflash CWM not sure if it's fixed it yet.
Are you able to boot the phone period? or just into recovery?

Yeah I'm able to boot the phone. I downloaded a different set of gapps now that I'm about to flash. The good thing about CM10 is the extended reboot menu so I'm able to get into CWM from there. I'll post back after the gapps finish downloading (the USB hookup isn't working on this rom yet )
Well I finally got my phone to work but I skill can't boot into recovery when the phone is turned off. Any ideas? ;(

Volume up, Home, Power - when the FIRST Samsung flashes, let go of everything but volume up. Should get you there.

ClockworkMod recovery wont open.

So I decided to go ahead and root my player. Then I found this custom rom and followed their instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1517194
It keeps on bootlooping my device, and even though installed steves kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377771
(which contains CWM) I cannot boot CWM recovery from boot.
It booted up a few times in CWM recovery, but now it doesnt want to. Since then ive tryed flashing steves kernal sveral times to see if I can get it to work. It hasn't.
I really just want to get my device back to stock, I have a stock rom but it still gets stuck in a bootloop.
Help!

I figued out how to get into recovery mode (power button + hold up volume). Now to figure out how to fix the bootloop....(I tried followign th instructions here but to no avail: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660596)
FIXED
OK i managed to fix my own problem. I installed steves kernel, cleared the cash and the dalvik-cache. Then I flashed the stock rom and wiped all data(reset the factory settings) and then cleared the cashe.
Then my device booted up properly. :good:
Glad to hear you fixed it

You get into Clockwork mod by turning off the device. Then Hold power, Volume up, and the settings (the one to the left of the home button) at the same time. Sometimes you have to let go when the samsung logo appears and then hold it again

could you give more incorrect info, the CORRECT steps for entering CWM (or stock if not using a custom kernel) is to power device completely off, wait for the vibrate to indicate shutdown. Then press and hold volume up and the power button, once the samsung logo comes on release only the power button, do not release the volume up, continue holding volume up until CWM loads.

On my 4.0 US I don't hold the volume any longer than the power button to get into CWM--i.e., I let both go at the samsung logo, and it goes in.

That's how I always entered CWM or the stock one lol. It works for me. Also another way I did it was wait until the samsung logo appears and then hold power + volume up at the same time. I didn't let go of either the power button or volume up button, and just waited for it to come on.
Next time for a better result Go to a stock rom and Flash a kernel with odin. best way to Install CWM perfectly.
like Terra Silet, i have Gplayer 4 and Rooted This Kernel One Milion time

What to do in case of bootloop

Hi. So I have a noobish question
This may sound very stupid, but this is actually the first time I've owned a phone with non-removable battery, so I just wanted to know what would I do if I ever got stuck in a bootloop? With my previous device, I could just remove the battery and put it back in then boot into recovery. Obviously can't do that now. So how do I turn the phone off, or enter recovery?
Anyone?
You can enter the recovery whenever you want by pressing the on/off button and the down volume button for about 10 seconds. When the Oneplus logo is on the screen release the on/off button but keep the down volume button pressed.
It works, I had a bootloop and fixed it by flashing the rom via twrp

Sorry, I got a little confused
Just to be clear, here's what I understood from what you said - Consider I turn my phone on and its stuck in a bootloop. What do I do then? Hold the power and vol down buttons? That will boot the recovery, even while the device is stuck in bootloop with the oneplus logo continuously showing?
Did I get it right?

I'm sorry I'm not English I may be unclear.
But yes, when you got the logo continuously showing, press the two buttons I said and it will reboot the phone, but you have to release only the on/off button when the oneplus logo will appear right after the beginning of the reboot. If you keep pressing the down volume button it will go to recovery
Have you got a oneplus x already ? You can try it right now, when your phone is awake. It's the same method as in a bootloop.

So I tried what you said, didn't exactly work When the phone was awake, did power+vol down. That just caused it to take a screenshot.
However, when I held down just the power button, the phone turned off. Then I had to turn it on by holding the power button. I did the same thing (holding down power button) while the phone was booting, it worked even then, and the phone again turned off.
So at least I can get into recovery now in case of bootloop. I just need to hold the power button till phone turns off, then boot into recovery using power+vol down combination.
Anyways, thanks for the help
Bootloop

Yesterday, I got my OPX and installed TWRP 2.8.7.0 and superSU. AFter using the phone all day, I rebooted and it is now saying in TWRP "no operating system".
I tried to flash the 2.1 full ROM and I get an error in both TWRP or in Stock recovery.
I need a way to get my system booted again and do a full reset. Any suggestions?

You can try a different twrp. There's 2 builds for our device. One is from the twrp thread itself, the other is available in the blu_spark kernel thread.

I tried the manipulation with the power button and the volume down but the reboot is too fast to enter bootloader
Indeed, my phone was under oos3.x and wanted to move to cyanogen ... but once the OEM Unlocked I tried to install TWRP, and that's when it is set to reboot systematically

u cannot flash official twrp while u r on oos 3.1.x.. ur bootloader is upgraded since official twrp will not work in oos3.. instead use twrp by bluespark v41 links given below.

For fastboot, unfortunately I can't access it because the phone restarts automatically so it doesn't work with on and volume down buttons and it doesn't work either with a computer.... Any other advise :'(

Correct. Do not let go of the Vol Down Button until the white screen ask you if you want to reset. And answer YES to both questions.

IF you do have TWRP installed it will take you to it. If you dont then ... Good luck.
You can always download Terminal Emulator
Type in
Code:
su
Press Enter
Code:
reboot recovery
Press Enter
Instead of Terminal Emulator, You can download G-Script Lite.
Its basically just like Terminal Emulator but you can save commands like reboot recovery.
Its the only thing I really use it for since my Power Menu doesnt have the option yet.

I cant use my device at all. When it boots up i get system UI stopped working repetitively. I can boot into download mode and fastboot mode. i had TWRP installed and had no name rom running and booted into TWRP then did a data, dalvik and cache wipe and started getting this issue so i believe TWRP is still installed.

Question Can't boot into recovery mode on s22

Hello I want to factory reset my s22 plus because of battery draining fast
I've tried powering off then powering on holding the side key and volume up, letting go upon the samsung logo and knox coming up.
And also tried to plug the phone on PC via cable and do the method above.
Power off...press and hold power and volume up until you see Samsung logo then let go of both buttons
Or just go to settings the Generl Management...look for reset and do it from there

Yeah now you have to plug it into a pc before you can boot into recovery. once you do this you can also use adb reboot recovery if you have adb installed etc
