I am just wondering if it is possible to boot into recovery from when the droid x is off. Not rebooting into recovery but just when you hold the power button can you boot into recovery. I am rooted and I flashed cyanogen mod 7 gb
Turn your phone off.
Hold down "Home" and press "Power" until the Motorola logo appears.
Release "Power" and continue to hold "Home" until an exclamation appears.
Release "Home" and press the "Search" button once.
Your phone will now enter recovery.
edit: with GB you have to hit both volume buttons instead of "Search". CM7 may be different however since it's a 2nd init rom.

Ive tried the volume down and volume and power but it wont work.... Any suggestions?
You are sure your phone is off and you:
Hold down the volume up and down with your left thumb and make sure there is a click feeling from both buttons and use your right hand to click on the power button?
I'm having the exact same problem. Have tried about 25 times to boot into recovery. Just does not work.
Pull the battery after every failed attempt took me about 2-3 tries. Before you do anything shut off phone pull battery then attempt to boot into recovery.
Yes, I'm doing that. The samsung screen comes up and if I release the buttons it does the normal boot up. If I keep holding the buttons the black screen with "vibrant" keeps coming on and off.
So far I discovered that it works perfectly if you hold the power button until after the Vibrant logo appears and then release the power button while still holding the both volume buttons. If you release the power button before the logo appears it will FAIL.
Only after the logo dissapears you can release the volume buttons.
In other words:
1-Press and hold both Volume buttons
2-Press and hold Power button
3-After Vibrant logo appears release Power button
4-Wait until Vibrant logo dissapears and then release Volume bottons
5-You should now be in recovery
Pito
Wow, I followed your directions step by step and still no luck! I wait till I the Vibrant logo to dissapear to release the volume buttons but it just boots up like normal. Thanks anyways! Is there another way of rooting my phone?
What I do as well is hold until the first logo dissapears and as soon as the second one appears release buttons. Then its in recovery.
Ive tried everything you all have said so far and I still cant get my phone into recovery mode. I was able to do it on my wife's vibrant but not on mine. Any suggestions?
Try getting quick boot from the market. It had an option to reboot into recovery. If your problem is just getting the button push right (i had real trouble with it at first) then this should work.

If you are rooted then Clockwork Recovery Mod has the ability to boot into recovery mode. Or you can turn on usb debugging and use adb. Start>Run>cmd and use "adb reboot recovery"

I have unlocked 16gb and when i press the buttons i think it goes into recovey mode so can be be some help to root the device or flash gingerbread on it. Guys with locked devices what happened when you press power and volume down buttons.
I was running Liquid, booted into clockwork and installed MIUI. When I rebooted the phone it wouldn't go past the M logo. It shows up, then the phone restarts, and goes back to the M logo. Power up/down with the power button does nothing, and pressing power+x only brings me to the Android with an exclamation point. I tried to SBF, but when I plug my phone in, as the M logo comes up windows finds it, but then it continues to reboot and won't go past the M logo. I really just need to get to Clockwork and I can put a different ROM. Any suggestions?
If I remember correctly once you get to the android guy with the exclamation point you have to hit the search button and that will bring you recovery.
Either search button or volume up + volume down together, when you're on the exclamation point screen. You'll go into recovery mode and from there you can sbf.
with d2 g I can get to CWR
with phone off pressing camera button and plug in charger
Booting into Recovery
Power down the phone.
Slide out the keyboard.
Press and hold the X button on the physical keyboard.
Press the lock/power button.
Once you see a warning sign with an android robot appear, press the Search button on your physical keyboard if you're running 2.4.x firmware. For 4.5.x firmware, press Volume Up and Down buttons.
you could try
wipe cache and or wipe data
Bootloader
Boot the phone into SBF loader:
Power down the phone.
Slide the keyboard out.
Press and hold the up arrow (↑) key.
Press the lock/power button.
Once the SBF loader screen pops up, release the up arrow key.
these work for Droid2 g
Which MIUI are you flashing? I've flashed good and bad. I got good ones from rootzwiki and the most functional so far is 1.9.23
To get into Clockwork hit the down volume button when the blue light appears in the upper right-hand corner during the M logo. Select option 3, recovery, then latest recovery and you'll be in ClockworkMod.
As said above, wipe cache and data--I wipe davlik cache as well--then select zip to install.
all the instruction are same.
1. press and hold the power button + volume down button at the same time.
2. when see the lg logo release them.
3. then push them again and hold (or hold only volume down button)
4. then I will enter in the recovery mod on lg g 2
but unfortunately this instruction did not working for my lg g2!
how will i do now?
i have put wrong knock code and then i need to put the backup code but unfortunately i have forgotten the code. there is no internet connection on the phone so Google recovery doesn't working. what can i do now?
still i am not able to enter recovery mod, so i am not able to hard reset
The key combinations are different for every bootloader.
If you are rooted and you installed custom recovery menu then you have JB bootloader and the key combination specified by you should work.
But if you are on stock firmware (with stock recovery menu) then you have KK bootloader and the key combination is different:

Press and hold power and volume down until you see the LG logo then release and press and hold the volume up and volume down buttons until reset screen appears.

Do the instructions you said, but don't release volume, just release power button at LG logo and then press it again right away.
