FASTBOOT: Volume Down + Power
RECOVERY: Volume Up + Power

I know this is in the wrong thread but ....
When I press volume down + power the phone just reboots normally. So what am I doing wrong ?

1. Ensure that you are holding down volume down until it shows you the fastboot screen.
2. If that didn't work connect your phone to your pc and use the adb command
Code:
adb reboot fastboot
or
Code:
fastboot reboot fastboot
whichever one works.
For things like this you could open a new thread just to make sure your problem is being seen. I guarantee you only very few people will actually see this.

The most easiest way of going to fastboot is to hold down volume down button and after 3-4 seconds connect your device to computer via a USB cable. That's it!

adb reboot bootloader

O-Yeah, that worked for me, i wonder why volume down+ power is not working anymore. Thanks :good:

The command "adb reboot bootloader" worked for me and I am fastboot screen (green android guy) an at the bottom it is written that my device is unlocked. But when I try to flash TWRP (for P8 lite - found in this forum) it fails with Failed (remote command not allowed) written. Why and what am I doing wrong ? Can anyone help ?

Or you can just turn on the phone and when the lg logo appears press and hold the camera button untill the screen goes black,with some backlight,of course.Then you can connect your usb cable.
ok you say you want to use adb then you just need to plug your phone no need to get in fastboot mod , even going to recovery you can use adb tool just by pluggin your phone and mounting system or data or both.
I havent tried myself use adb in fastboot mode but i think is not possible. fastboot commands where made to fastboot mode and adb for normal and recovery mode is what i think.
if you can tell what do you want to do exactly we might help properly.

[Q] Bootloop, cant get into fastboot

Hi
I rooted my nexus 10 some months ago. All worked fine until yesterday. I wanted to go back to original firmware and used the WUGs nexus root toolkit to download 4.4.3 version and flash it. But afterwards the tablet doesnt boot anymore. Google logo appears and then the circle thing never goes away. I searched many threads, and all base on going into fastboot and flash again, but thats the problem. I cant get into fastboot. The usual combination (Power and vol+ and vol-) doesnt work! I tried many other combinations with different timings, longer press only vol+ and power ...., I always get to google logo after it vibrates.
Is there any other way to get into the fastboot mode ?
Can I connect it to the computer and interrupt the boot process when I switch it on via the PC?
thanks in advance
regards
Erich
Try to connect it to PC with original usb cable and run "adb devices".
If you see Nexus device, you can try "adb reboot recovery" and upload a ROM to /sdcard with "adb push" for flash it.
Hi
Thanks for your relpy.
But thats the problem, even if I could upload a file with adb, which is not working, how would I flash it if I cant get into fastboot or recovery mode ???
thanks anyway
regards
Erich
I think what patzzz is saying is that it depends on your bootloop, often is the case that when someone is in a bootloop the kernel does initiate and adb is functional. Not always but at times for sure.
So if so you can attempt
adb reboot recovery
Or
adb reboot bootloader
If the above doesn't work than you will have to continue trying to boot to bootloader manually with key presses (which I believe is power on while holding volume down)
Best of luck!
Hi
Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately it doesnt work. It made a batch file which calls adb devices and adb reboot bootloader in a loop, so it can send it to the device if it is found, but the tablet isnt regonized, tried some reboots and no luck, adb cant find it )))-:

It seems a brick, but you can try using fastboot command instead of adb:
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot reboot-bootloader

I suggest you do a factory reset from the stock. You have gone back to stock firmware so you should have stock recovery. I had this happen once and this work for me.
Hi
I will try it with fastboot too, maybe it works....
How can I do a factory reset without recovery mode ?
thanks

1.If your tablet is on, turn it off.
2.Press & hold the Power, Volume Up, and Volume Down buttons at the same time for several seconds. You'll see the word "Start" with an arrow drawn around it.
3.Press the Volume Down button twice to highlight Recovery mode.
4.Press the Power button to start Recovery mode. You'll see an image of an Android robot with a red exclamation point and the words "No command."
5.While holding down the Power button, press the Volume Up button.
6.Use the volume buttons to scroll to "Wipe data/factory reset," then press the Power button to select it.
7.Scroll down to "Yes - erase all user data," then press the Power button to select it.
>>2.Press & hold the Power, Volume Up, and Volume Down buttons at the same time for several seconds. You'll see the word "Start" with an arrow drawn around it.
Thats the problem, it doesnt work! Tried it a dozent times, only Google logo appears.....

Perform a hard reset.
Press and hold Volume up + volume down + power
When phone glows
Keep pressing volume up + volume down keys
You see stock recovery
Now wipe all data
Reboot
Check your problem got resolved or not if not resolved then go-to next method
Install adb drivers
Connect phone in fastboot mode
Volume up press and hold and connect data cable.
See device manager
Device should be shown as adb bootloader interface in android device
Now flash stock rom using ygdp tool in fastboot mode.
Wait for process done.
Now check your problem.
Sure it will be gone

Hardware button don't work in bootloader?

Hey guys. I just got LG G6 H870 model. Unlocked bootloader without much problems, but issues came later. While being in bootloader I can't do anything, hardware buttons seem to not work. The only way to get out of bootloader is to use "fastboot reboot" command, but that prevents me from getting into custom recovery after flashing it. Only entering download mode works (holding volume up and plugin in usb cable). Non other key combination work until I boot into system.
Can this issue be somehow resolved?
I had similar problem myself with entering recovery more and the reason behind it was that I didn't press the button combo in proper way. what you actually have to do is while you in fastboot mode you press down and hold power button and volume down button. phone reboots after a moment and you should still be holding these keys and when lg logo appears you let go of power button for brief second and then press it back again and then when a prompt on white screen appears just go yes two times and phone shall boot in recovery mode . I had watch a tutorial movie to figure that out. other easy way is just to have adb enabled and reboot it with adb reboot recovery command via USB cable

No, because I had G5 and I know the proper way to do that. Problem is I can hold the power button as long as I live and the phone won't reboot, regardless of pressed combination or power button solo.
and the adb command way ?
Well... Nevermind, turns out vol down button isn't working at all.
still good way around is adb reboot recovery

MI A1 Fastboot

MI A1 does not enter the fastboot, appears the message "your dvice software cant'be checked for corruption, please lock the bootloader" Two things, first I am layman, I understand little, the other and excuse the translation, was machine translation.
The message has nothing to do with the Fastboot. That message is a normal reaction when the bootloader is unlocked.

Hold the power button and volume down button together for 10-15-20 second, as long as the phone doesn't boot up into Fastboot.

When the message appears, release the buttons and try again to do the same, hold the buttons together for about 20-30 seconds until the phone doesn't enter Fastboot. I Don't see a reason why the phone wouldn't enter Fastboot if you only unlocked the bootloader.

If I hold on, the same thing will happen 10, 20, 50 times, I've already tested it.
If I release the volume - and power buttons, the unit comes in and I have to turn it off to try again :crying:
Can you boot into the system at all? Does the phone work? How did you get to the point that you can't enter Fastboot, what happened exactly?

As I said before, I do not understand much of this subject, the phone works normally, all functions are working, I switched on it some time ago, but I can not remember what I did right for it to be without fastboot

If you don't understand the subject, why did you want to boot into fastboot mode in the first place? No offense, just aksin'.

Good question, did not offend me. I figured it was time to start learning about it, I was thinking of installing the Google Pixel rom
With the phone OFF:
Press Vol- and Power, when Bootloader screen appear just release the power button, so continue to hold Vol- until the fastboot screen.
It's the only procedure for fastboot on our device.

It did not work, the error message appeared and as soon as I released the power button, came on the device. This problem has left many people without understanding, I just did not give up, because I do not accept that only my cell phone this function does not work
Does your phone have root? If so you can use a reboot app from the play store to boot into fastboot.
Install adb drivers, enable USB debug then open command prompt and type "adb reboot bootloader". Phone should reboot to fastboot mode.
