This should help:
1. Power off completely
2. Hold vol up + vol down without touching the power button (make sure you got that perfectly)
3. Hold power button for 2 seconds
From there it should be easy to get to recovery

There are a few youtube videos on how to achieve this if the above post still does not help
K thank you. I was wondering if I had a defective button, but the all work perfectly under normal operations. Maybe it is my technique like you say.

Was trying to restart wifes Nexus 4, only option when holding power key down is to power off. Is there any other way?
Also, how do you screen shot on it?

Keep holding the power button. It will restart after a few seconds.

I don't think holding down the power button is the greatest suggestion if you want to just reboot the device.
If you hold down the power button, what that does is it forces the device to shut down. Keep it held and your device will power back on. That would seem like a reboot. But it's the equivalent of pulling the power form your PC to shutdown and then booting it up again. It's simply not the proper way to shutdown or reboot.
Natively, there's no way to easily reboot your device. Most custom ROMs have a reboot option in the power menu. If you don't want to flash custom ROMs, there are apps that let you reboot. Just search "reboot" in Google Play.
You can also use the reboot command in terminal emulator if the phone is rooted.... and you just made me reboot my phone.
I want to check the counter on my S4. Is there another way to get out of Download Mode besides pulling battery? I hate fooling with taking S4 out of case to get to battery.
Thanks

Vol down+power
Hold power button till phones turns off (about 10sec)

Holding the power button for about 10 seconds will turn the phone off completely. Once off you can just hold the power button again, and hopefully you'll boot up fine.
I know that your supposed to hold I'm the volume down button when you power on... but when do you let go...?... I've looked all over and all people say is to hold volume down button in when you first power up but I can't get in like that... I have to use an app to get me there and that's not gonna help if I get myself into some trouble... ? please help...thanks in advance...

When it booting and you see the yellow splash screen hold the volume rocker up. Soon you will see the TWRP blue splash screen. At that point give a three count and release the rocker and wait for it to boot into TWRP.
ROM: Cyanogenmod
Android OS ver.: 4.4.2
Device: Nexus 4
Apparently, using CleanMaster to clear up RAM and locking my phone at the same time is a bad combination.
My Nexus 4 is now bricked somehow.
I remember my battery is about 60% and above.
My "Hold" button is broken so I used Cyanogenmod's double tap on status bar to lock screen function mostly.
The "Hold" button will work if I pressed the "Sweet" spot.
I tried calling my Nexus 4 and there's a dial tone but my Nexus 4 do not have any indication that there's a call.
No vibration or ringtones.
There isn't any LED light indicating my phone is in critical state.
I believe my Nexus 4 is still "Online" as I still can call it.
Please help! What should I do now? I think I'm the first one to have this problem.

Well, I don't know if i'm pressing the "Sweet" spot but I tried holding for more than 60 seconds. Nothing happens.
I think my phone is having CPU or RAM lock?
Any more ideas to force reboot my device? :crying:

I've tried and held it more than 60 seconds again.
both holding Volume up + Power and Volume down + Power doesn't work.
Thanks for the suggestions though!
I'm still confused.. why did this happened? :l
Oh.!!! After constantly pressing volume up and down with power button and power button alone.
I couldn't tell if my phone had shut down, I tried calling my phone and there was no dial tone!
I tried powering on at the same time and a logo on the screen came up!
My phone is working fine now!
Lesson learned: Do not Clear RAM with Clean Master and lock screen at the same time.
Current Battery Level: 25%
Thank you all!

SAFE MODE
Power Down the OnePlus 2
Once Off, Press and Hold the Power Button Until the Device Starts Booting
As Soon as You See Android Booting Up, Let Go of the Power Button
Once You Let Go, Immediately Start Holding Down the Volume Up and Volume Down Buttons
Continue Holding These Two Buttons Until Android is Completely Booted
Once You Reach the Lock Screen, Let Go of These Two Buttons and Unlock Your Phone Like Normal

This worked for me:
Clear and force close:
- com.oneplus.fingerprints.service
- oneplus.systemservice and then reboot
Non of those solutions worked for me, any other ideas? Thanks

After loosing the fingerprint scanner once for about 3 days until it just started working again and lost it again after about 2 months of no problems until 2 days ago when I lost it again.
This is what worked out for me.
1.I disabled the fingerprint option.
2.Turned off the on screen buttons.
3. Reboot into recovery
4. Clear cache
5. Reboot
6. Home button is working again!!! ??
I hope this helps someone.
