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.
after rooted with custom recovery ( CWM or TWRP )

been searching the web and seen people reporting that it's a bug with JB and that you have to use USB cable attached to PC in order to cold boot into bootloader with hardware buttons... or that holding both volume button as you power on does NOT work...etc ... so as far as I can read... people are relying on tricks or at the mercy of having to boot from inside android ( fully boot )...
what if your system does NOT boot and you need to get into bootloader and recovery ??
well... I found out how !! :laugh:
/ with the device OFF
/ hold down "POWER BUTTON" for 3 seconds and let go..
/ as soon as you let go of the "POWER BUTTON"... HOLD IN THE VOLUME DOWN BUTTON... and you will automatically be in bootloader mode
/ Select with volume rocker & confirm with power button
I get stuck on the splash screen when I select recovery.

I have a Nexus 4 with 4.2.2. I was following this guide to root:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/nexus-7-rooting-roms-hacks/253032-how-root-4-2-2-a.html
On step 10, after choosing recovery, my phone is stuck at a blank & black screen. If I hold down power, power + volume down, or power + volume up, it just boots back into a black screen. It vibrates as if it's rebooting but won't get out of the black screen. Any ideas?
Please delete..I didn't realize this was in the Nexus 7 forum. I posted in the Nexus 4 forum.
Hello, i have used Nexus Root Toolkit on my Nexus 10.
Now is always stopped on a screen with the text "google". If i try the Recovery Mode it fails. To the Recovery Mode i do this:
1. Turn off;
2. Press and hold the Power, Volume Up, and Volume Down buttons at the same time for several seconds until the tablet turns on.
3. I press the Volume Down button twice to highlight "Recovery mode."
4. Then i press the Power button to start Recovery mode.
But the image of an Android robot with a red exclamation point is never appears...
How do i solve this?
Thanks in advance,
Paulo
Has anyone managed to boot into magisk mode on one ui 3? Power + bixby + vol up doesn't seem to be working anymore.. I also tried with the USB method but still no luck..
Recovery Mode UI 3.0
1. Turn off the device,
2. Connect the phone with a USB cable to the computer,
3. We wait until the screen showing the start of charging and the percentage of the battery appears,
4. Press the Volume + button and then the power button and hold both buttons until the device turns on -For older devices, such as Galaxy S10, it is required to hold the Volume +, Bixby and power buttons

I can enter recovery mode just fine, the problem is that I'm not being able to boot into root (magisk) mode anymore after the update. Vol up + bixby + power (and USB) is only taking me to recovery mode now.
So far TWRP doesn't support android 11. Maybe the next version will support it.
I'm in the exact situation. I think nobody understood the question. He wants to boot into MAGISK MODE (Root) which some time ago it was made by pressing vol + + bixby a couple of seconds then releasing both buttons at the same time.
Now with UI3 we are left with recovery using USB cable or normal mode but no MAGISK.
