I notice a problem with my vol down, here is the symptoms. When i press vol down there is no immediate response, after few seconds of delate the system vol went all the way down to slient mode like I was press and hold the vol down button. I have no problem with vol up and I have no problem pressing both up and down to boot into recovery mode, but during recovery mode the vol down is still not working right. It also have the delate problem but doesn't seem to have press and hold effect while I just press it once.
I am running on Vibrant6 rom from the forum. Is this a rom/firmware problem or a hardware problem?
BTW it was fine when I bought it from ebay.
I can't for the life of me figure out how to boot into TWRP... I followed the how-to on the cyanogenmod wiki hoping that it would work, and I've tried googling this, but I can't figure it out. Cyanogenmod's wiki says hold the power and volume down simultaneously, then click them both when the LG screen shows, then click the power button three times. I've done this about ten times with no luck. I need to boot into twrp to install gapps as I've just flashed a rom on my G2.
Hold Power and Volume Down buttons and when LG screen shows, release them for half a second and press them again. It should show screen for factory reset. Go for it pressing Power button. It will take you to recovery...

I had the same problem and what I have to do is power the phone off, then hold the volume down button and power button at the same time, when the lg screen pops up release the volume down button while keeping the power button pressed. A splash screen will pop up and it will say entering recovery mode. It will then boot into recovery.

Power + Volume down or Volume up? I've always had to use volume up but I guess I can try volume down next time.
With the method I put it has to be volume down. I couldn't get the traditional methods to work for me.

To enter the bootloader: with the phone off hold volume down and press power. Use the volume rocker to scroll through the options
To enter Recovery: Once in the bootloader screen use the volume rocker to bring up the Recovery Mode option and press the power button. This gets you to the dead Andy with the red triangle. Now press volume up and you should have the stock Android recovery.
I'm guessing the bootloader is locked? :X

Once at dead Andy, I (at least) had to press power and vol up to get to stock recovery. Vol up alone did nothing.

This has been happening to me too. Vol up and Andy just lays there, red triangle in hand, laughing at me.
EDIT: Nevermind............ I was missing the point. All good now.
Weird. I'm not able to get past the dead android.
I get into the bootloader fine, can select Recovery Mode, phone reboots and I get the dead Andy with "No command".
Tried pushing vol up... nothing. Tried pushing power and vol up... nothing.
I'm just trying to wipe the cache partition... which I've done before... but can't get past the dead guy.

in the dead andy screen press vol up + power for 4 seconds. if nothing happens try again, is a little tricky.
I have found that mine seems to work better if I hold the vol up for a second BEFORE I press power. Hold vol for a second then continue to hold it while you push power and let both go. Hope this helps someone.
Thanks guys, I'm in.
Man... that's a fine line between holding the buttons long enough to get into recovery, and holding them too long so as to shut your phone off!
X_man, that trick of holding vol up first before pressing power did actually seem to make it easier.

No prob. Glad to help. I myself actually restarted a couple times by accident before I figured out you can hold the vol first. lol
You should only need to tap power while holding the volume Up button.
1. At the bootloader screen, select Recovery mode.
2. Wait for the dead Andy.
3. Press and hold volume Up.
4. Tap power and release (still pressing volume Up).
5. Recovery should show in a second or less.
€DIT: deleted, here was crap
Correction!

@Moondroid, I tried what you suggested many times, but to no avail. Finally I figured out that you had steps 3 and 4 in the wrong order! So for anyone that's still trying to figure this out, press and hold power button, then tap volume up button and release .

Thanks bro you made my life easy.
1. At the Bootloader screen, select Recovery mode.
2. Wait for the dead Andy.
3. Press and hold Power Key (atleast for 01 SEC).
4. Tap Volume Up and release (still pressing Power Key).
5. Recovery should show in a 01 milli second or less.
I see a lot of people saying they cannot get into recovery mode with power+vol-up.
This is because its not that simple.
To get into recovery mode, you should reboot the phone by or while simultaneously holding the power and the volume up buttons.
But the trick is to release the power button when you see the big android logo/text while still holding the volume-up button.
Good luck!
Hello there,
got the final android oreo update today on my TA-1021 (Germany).
Now i cant acces the recovery anymore!?!
At Android Nougat it was:
1. connect to charger
2. press and hold volume down and power button.
3. then release power button and keep pressing volume down.
4. now i'm into recovery
Now i stuck into dowload mode with this method.
Is there a way without using adb?
Thanks a lot.
Edit:
Did it now through adb.
Maybe there will be a solution in the future.

Power off your device
Connect your device to charger
When you see battery charging animation
Press and hold volume up and power key together
Release power key only not volume up key when you see android logo
After few seconds you will be booted to recovery but wil no command user interface
Dont panic
Hit volume up+power key+home button(fingerprint senser) together for once
You will get the recovery
Tip: dont use any sideloaded into recovery, this will brick your device
Nokia doesn't support sideloaded process
Hit thanks button if you find this useful
Happy flashing
Thank you very very much!!! This method works perfectly!
Thank you! The method also works for me.
Thanks it worked for Nokia 6 TA-1033 !
