It used to be a trial to get into recovery. Once you flash Prime flash the power recovery mod...makes it easy

didnt work,,,,, it keeps going to recovery mod
it worked but vl. button down. thanks
If you've installed a custom ROM, you may already have (or can download) the ClockWorkMod app and should be able to boot into download from that. Alternatively, beg, borrow or steal a USB jig and plug that in when powered down? Apologies if you've looked into all these option already and none are of any help. Good luck.
[SOLVED]
I rooted this, installed clockworkmod, then went and got an cm7 dated april something 2012 u8160 rom from psyke83 website.
installed it through clockworkmod install from sd card option with success (also clicked option to backup everything).
yet when phone reboots it hangs on the blue arrow in a circle spinning around, sometimes reboots n repeats but it never goes past that.
I have tried going into recovery mode holding down volume buttons and power
and I get 1 of 2 errors:
with sd card in:
firmware update
step 1/2
unpacking
update failed
with sd card out:
purple screen.
I am a first time android modder, can someone please, please tell me how to fix this. I can access the sd card with a reader if need be to put whatever files on it that I should.
Thank you.
Start the phone by pressing volume up + power OR volume down + power. You should be able to boot to recovery with one of those combinations (other one boots to fastboot most probably). After that do the wipe data/cache and try to reboot once again.
What was wrong in the beginning was that you did not wipe data/cache. That made the CM use old OS's data files which obviously won't work.
The unpacking thing was caused by pressing volume up + volume down + power. That causes the phone to go to upgrade mode if there is an update package found.
Nope. still goes to the blue arrow circling then freezes then reboots....

You are right about me not wiping the data/cache though...
But in your phone forum, are there tutorials on how to boot to recovery? Do you have any other hard keys on the phone?
there is one other button but that didn't work either.
I cannot find a forum for Huawei model u8180 (

Hmm, would this work?
yay!!
it was volume up + power + cancel button (? maybe home button? not sure on what this button is but its the biggest).
wiped all data n cache n then it booted properly.
So the problem is solved? If you can, mark first post title with [SOLVED].

Just curious why you are asking a question about a i9505 device here?
Anyway, are you saying it can NOT get into recovery at all? or you can get into recovery and there is no options.

Are you sure you're not talking about download mode? (vol down + home + power)
Recovery mode is vol up + home + power. Release just the power button when the phone vibrates

yes download is fine
in recovery are not any options
You have 2 options, get into some type of recovery, or ODIN back to stock. and that will require some reading to get that up and running...try here first.
You will need to post in your i9505 forum about this issue where to find original stock image, I looked there, but didn't see anything right off the bat.
god luck sir.
Hey guyz,
Could you help me please? I have ZTE Blade TFT phone with 2 gen ROM.
Unfortunatly hardware buttons are not working and can't be repaired. After flashing new ROM my phone is stuck on Android logo.
I have CWM installed, but unfortunatly I can't perform hard reset due the broken buttons.
I can't reflash it via other method as well, cause factory recovery is replaced by CWM.
I can't use a TPT method as menu button is not working as well.
Could you please recommend me any method to recover my phone?
Any feedback is welcome!

Okay dude keep calm maybe your phone is still alive.
Check:
-Do you can enter FTM Mode?
-When you put the device @ charging , does it show a charging animation?
If so or not , pull out battery out of device for 4-5 hours (!) , then put battery back in and try to go in recovery! Maybe then it will go ... If you need to put another ROM to device , just 'Mount and Storage" -> "Mount USB Storage" -> connect phone via USB to Computer and you are able to put another ROM to sdcard.
When you install new ROM
-2x Wipe Data&Factory Reset
-2x Wipe Cache
-2x Wipe Dalvik (under 'Advanced')
-Not needed but you can Wipe Battery Stats
-Install .zip from sdcard
-choose .zip from sdcard
-choose ROM , install and reboot.
I hope it helped!

Hi,
Thanks for assistance! Recovery is already installed. I'm not able to wipe data and cache due broken hardware buttons. Still don't have solution.
Flash this via Fastboot
This recovery is CWM touch recovery for Zte Blade. Name it 'recovery.img' and fastboot it.

Thanks for advice.
This methods doesn't work for me as well. It progresses beyond the green android and load ROM logo.
Turn on your phone with volume up held and connect it to your computer. It should not progress beyond the green android. Sometimes you have to wait a few minutes for

To get in fastboot you have to hold the vol up key for around second and then press power on while holding vol up. I mean you shouldn't hold the two buttons at same time to power up.
1. Hold Vol Up key
2.While holding vol up , wait 3 seconds
3 While holding vol up , press power on now. At least you hold two buttons.
4.You should now be in fastboot mode.

If you're using the themed version you might face this same thing. You can still unlock it, but tricky.
