This is really starting to pee me off. I am trying to boot into hboot. Phone off then hold volume down and power on. Nothing after like 30 seconds, as soon as release the buttons my phone boots as normal :'(

Get terminal emulator from market, and write: "reboot bootloader". You might need root.

You've not left Fastboot turned on have you?
Yes, thanks.

You can also reboot whilst holding the volume down power button and this will get u into bootloader. I think this works even with fastboot on.

Has anyone else had this problem with the stock phone? Mine will power down but ten seconds later will boot up on its own
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
No, might be a faulty power button.
Fastboot is turned on. If you press the power button (just a press, not even a hold), then the phone will boot up. happened a lot when the phone was in my pocket.
Nope. I would pull battery out, put it back in, not even get the cover back on and it would boot up on it's own

So the other day my phone turned off and my phone started doing the 3 vibrates and blinking orange LED thing. It finally turned on earlier today, so I was wondering if there was a way to fix the volume up button so I don't have to worry about my phone getting turned off.
Is there a way to fix it? Or remap the button to a different button? Or even just disable the button in general? Or even just plain break the button. Anything as long as the phone doesn't think its being pressed lol
Edit: does anyone know if the app buttonmapper would fix this? I don't wanna try this and have it not work and get stuck with the flashing LED again
Thanks!
Button savior might but please don't make 2 threads back to back...

That would just replace the volume button. I need it gone completely. And alright, I'll remember that from now on. Sorry

No problem, you could try using a jewlers screwdriver set and prying up the volume up key. And its a rookie mistake just don't do it again

Haha I did that, and it wasn't working before, but I just tried to boot into recovery via the option on CM7 menu, and it booted into CWM just fine. Then I hit reboot system now, and it did that just fine. Does it boot differently when I have it boot directly into recovery? And does it boot differently when I hit reboot system now through CWM?
I know it changes the bootmode (or at least it does on the Kindle Fire), but I didn't think it made that much of a difference. Oh well. I guess I won't question it too much as long as it works.
So, when I turn the phone on using Volume Up+Power, that boots me into hboot, right?

So then Volume Up + Power boots me into recovery? Or does it not do anything?
Vol up and power boots you into some other mode, I don't remember what it's called.
I believe it's the original recovery, cause when i bricked my phone several months ago (i got impatient and decided to just flash the original stock img file (i thought it was as easy as idevices) without having the engineering hboot. Anyways I think it took me to the stock recovery mode

Oh. Alright. Do you know if there's anyway to change that? So that I can make the volume up button and power do nothing, and make it like camera button and power?

Hello everyone,
Was hoping someone could explain what the button combination "Volume Up + Power" actually does..??
I tried it just a few moments ago and the only thing that happened was it vibrated, nothing showed up on the screen (as if it were off), and the LED (orange) kept blinking. No buttons worked, so had to pull the battery.
Before doing that, I decided to attach the phone to my computer via USB. It asks for drivers. Which drivers though? I already have all the drivers installed for my phone...
Anyway, the main question here is..what is this mysterious mode the phone goes into when powering on the device using volume UP??
Just curious =P
What ROM are you running?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I'm running [KANG]CM 7.2.RC0.
The latest one.
I didn't think the ROMs had anything to do with the power and volume combinations when starting up the phone.
...did I forget to mention that in my original post? Basically, my phone is not on when I'm trying the button combos..

youve gotta hold volume down + power button to access fastboot. volume up + power button only works for the stock recovery
Ooooh. I thought this was in ROM. You meant while powered off. Ok. Sorry.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Well I know about volume down + power
I was just curious about what the volume up combo did. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
@estallings15,
it was actually my fault for not being clear enough in my original post. My bad.
I was experimenting to see what each button combo with the power button did while the phone was off..

Hey i have the same problem. Recently I bought this phone off of craigslist. The phone goes to the DFT screen and its on aMAGDLR v1.11. I tried to reset it but it doesnt go to the multi colored screen. I bought a new micro sd but that didnt work. It also cant connect to my computer. There isnt wrong with the charging port because the light goes on when its connected. PLEASE HELP?!
Did you properly press volume down + power button.
Yes I did that and it keeps going to the magdlr screen. when I press the vol up and down + power it shows up to boot menu for a second but I cant choose them.

I went to install drivers for the nexus 7 and when I ran the full driver test from WUGfresh's toolkit it put me in fast boot. I need to leave my house and finish the process later. How do I get out of fastboot??? I just want to boot into the OS and leave! Thanks
Using the volume keys go to reboot and press the power button to select.

To cycle through the options just use the volume keys. When it shows reboot press the power button

Look at the dropbox image pls. I hit power button and it did nothing. Volume rockers do nothing. I am in fastboot
I did look at it. Your bootloader must be frozen.
Hold the power button down for at least 10 seconds.
