want to jump ship back to bionix. the volume up + volume down press and battery insert, plug in usb cable method doesn't work.
did you try plugging in the USB before putting the battery back in?
I had trouble getting it to go into DL mode too, this eventually worked for me:
took battery out
held down up/down same time
plugged in USB
added battery
volume up + power button combo worked. damn that took a while to figure out lol
If ur on the nightlys just hold power button. Reboot and choose recovery
Sent from a phone with android 2.3.5
download terminal emulator from the market.
type in su [enter]
reboot download [enter]
it will throw u in download mode

Hold the volume up AND down button down along with the power button till the vibrant screen flashes once. the let go of the power button but keep holding the volume up AND down button untill it goes to the download screen
I just spent the afternoon recovering my phone after the OTA update.
I was able to get into download mode using the following:
With the phone powered off hold BOTH volume keys while simultaneously plugging the USB cable(that is already attached to your pc) into the phone.
Worked every time for me. Hope this helps.
Hi I have tried that and other buttons combination for the past 30 mins and found nothing. I have read into that any vibrant from the batch in august have been disabled for the download mode, is this true?
Pull the battery out first.
plug in usb
hold up, down and power buttons
reinsert battery with free hand.

That's how it works for me.
If I hold the power button while doing the above I only go into recovery mode.
i'm starting to get worry because i tried everything and nothing is happening. it is as if my phone has disable the recovery mode.
The volume up/down button thing never worked for me either. For me, the only thing that works is adb (the android debug bridge). Download/install the samsung drivers, and the android SDK (see messages on this board for links & instructions).
On the phone go to Settings -> Applications -> Development and check the USB Debugging box. Connect your phone to your computer via the USB cable, open a command prompt & type 'adb devices' w/out the quotes. You should get one listed device if you've done the above correctly. Then type 'adb reboot download' to put your phone into download mode.

Just a thought but are you holding down the volume up and down button with phone turned off and than plugging in the usb from computer? It seems that it is required to have the phone off and than hold down the volume buttons and while holding them down plug in the USB. which is already connected to computer. Hope this is of some help!!!!!!!1111
Easiest way to get into d/l mode is pull the SD card, SIM card and batt, plug the phone in to your pc with your usb cable. Hold both sides of the vol. rocker down, do not press power, while still holding the vol. rocker, reinsert the batt.
adb
if you have ADB set up on your rig, just leave the usb in and type in the cmd window of your computer, "adb reboot" without the quotes. and that should reboot your phone and let it start, if you really want to get into dl mode, and can use the ADB just type in "adb reboot download" once again without quotes.

Hi..
My power button stopped working, so I took apart the phone only to discover that the flex cable to the power button had broken..
Is there any way to power on the phone without the power button?
I'm thinking some kind of battery trick or adb?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Never mind, found a way
1. get it in download mode (Hold volume down and home button and connect USB)
2. Once in download mode install heimdall command line on your computer
3. Type heimdall close-pc-screen
4. PROFIT!

Here’s how to enter Safe Mode on a Galaxy S10 smartphone:
Shut down your Galaxy S10 smartphone
Hold the Power button key and release it when the SAMSUNG logo appears on the display
Right afterward, press and hold the Volume Down button
Hold the Volume Down button until the device boots up, and the Safe Mode text appears in the bottom left corner

Put it in download mode. Hold bixby, volume up and power, plug in type c connector, and then usb to pc. You should be in download mode now

After 100x reboots , I finally passed to get download mode idk how (just spammed buttons ...) and reinstalled stock rom, will never try again to install this twrp anymore
Is there fix to connect my phone to pc and recovery my data, i have boot loop, can get recovery with power and up and download mode with + - volume. How to make my pc detect my phone, i use stock rom
I was trying to install a custom rom. I had unlocked bootloader and twrp already set up then installed ultimate Q then installed Evolution X 4.0. everything went fine until i rebooted it. Now phone doesn't start if i hold the power button. only response if I hold "vol down + power" then the screen turns on. If i try to "vol up + power" it doesn't boot into twrp. Download mode doesn't work either (I cant get to it).
This video (youtub/watch?v=Rc1Lvihyp8c) shows the guy using some sort of usb attachment. Is there a software equvalent of that which i can use my pc to reset the phone?
Any way to get it to flash twrp again?

To go to download mode
Normal method
1. Turn off phone
2. Hold down both volume keys
3. Plug in computer
Bootlooping
1. Plug in to computer
2. Hold down both volume keys
For a difficult phone
1. Connect usb to computer but not to phone
2. Hold down all 3 keys
3. When it buzzes release power and quickly plug in usb to phone.
It might take a few times to get it right.
If it's REALLY BAD
1. Wait for the battery to completely run down and use normal method.
