Volume Down & Power not working?

Is it normal for Volume Down & Power to not be working, if my mt4g has the gb update? I mean it won't enter the boot screen. I know it can't be rooted, but shouldn't it at least enter the boot mode?

if you are running 2.3.4 and want in hboot the got to settings/power make sure fast boot is unchecked then power off then push and hold volume down and power should get you into hboot

or you can turn it off and pull out the battery then put it back in and try

Mytouch 4g, can't boot into recovery with hardware buttons

I can't boot into recovery using power button/volume down combo. Is there a way to reset so I can boot from hardware keys again?

Worked for me too! Thanks man!

For anyone else looking for a solution to this problem where the battery replacement doesn't work, such as a busted volume down button or something...
IF you can get the phone started at all, you can use the ADB shell to reboot into recovery.
Now you might have other issues after that if you can't use certain buttons to navigate the bootloader menu. But if for example you just want to return the device to stock for a warranty exchange and you have a bad volume down button, you can reboot into recovery using ADB then you should only need your volume UP button to initiate the flashing of the PD15IMG file.
So there's limited usage for this technique, but it'll work wonders when you need it.

Problem restore

Haii so im trying to install a rom and i cant do it. Everytime i choose to go to recovery mode it just stays in a black screen and the only way is to remove battery and restart. Thanks for your help

While phone is off..hold vol down + power. You will enter the bootloader..with the volume button highlight recovery, press power button. Also have you flashed a custom recovery?

yes, that takes me into factory reset....and stays there forever if i select to reset

Have you also tried scrolling down on the boot loader menu and choosing delete user data then trying the reboot?

If you can access TWRP recovery, you can shutdown your phone by going Reboot > Power Off.

Yes but you dont understand.the guidlines are very spacific that after all the fastboot flashing and final step says that after all flashing it says okay and to immediately power down either by removing battery or in my case with a rogers lg g2 where baterry removal is not an option it says type last command fastboot reboot and hold power while the phone powers down.but it will not power down while still plugged into usb port.well that cant happen as it loops itself.and same thing while i do button combo to get into twrp.i can do all the above no problem if the usb cord is not attached only when i unplug the usb it allows me to do combo and get recovery.i just cant get passed that point where all flashes okay and power down while still plugged in.omg this is frustrating.im gonna throw this damn phone out the window lol
