Can't boot into recovery mode - Essential Phone Questions & Answers

So today I wanted to boot into recovery mode to clear the cache and data but found that I simply couldn't get to recovery mode. Holding power + volume down gets me to fastboot mode, but then when I select recovery mode and press the power button absolutely nothing happens. The screen goes blank and just stays blank. I've tried waiting for 10 minutes and still nothing. I can boot back into fastboot mode, I can power on the phone like usual, from fastboot mode I can restart the bootloader but if I select recovery mode I just get a blank screen. Anyone experienced a similar issue maybe?
I'm running the stock OS with a locked bootloader if that might be important

I just entered this hell today. lol. because there's no data/OS , nothing by fastboot. Phone is no longer found by anithing. Any help would greatly apreciated.

anybody? Bueller.....beuller...........

What kind of recovery mode are you trying to enter?
Did you flash TWRP recovery before?
What stock version are you using? Jan stock or Feb stock?
You can try to re-flash TWRP, make sure you're in Jan stock before doing so.
And you should have unlock boot loader to do so.

There is literally nothing on the phone but fastboot . it's empty. So i'm tossing this in the file, and I ordered another from Swappa.
Thank you for responding, it's greatly appreciated.

I cant get mine to boot into recovery only fastboot... Any help?
Do as duquesa says and press the volume down button and power.
Hey guys,
Can anyone help me please. I had my phone rooted on 5.1.1, then I downloaded and updated it to Marshmallow with the official oneplus software. I also chose not to overwrite the recovery when I flashed it with TWRP. However, now the phone doesn't allow me to enter any recovery (stock or twrp). I have downloaded the toolbox and reflashed the recovery, also tried flashing the stock recovery but nothing is working. When attempting to boot into recovery through bootladder, absolutely nothing happens and it just stays stuck on that screen. If I attempt the manual method, then it stays stuck on the 1+ loading screen.
Thanks in advance.

Try the "mega unbrick oneplus2" it will save your device, just google it and you will find an easy tutorial.

Hello friends,
I have updated into Oreo, I tried all standard methods to enter into recovery into Mi A1 but all that i could reach to the max is to the no command screen. Now the question is whether the mi a1 in oreo actually has any recovery? if yes, how to enter it. tried using fastboot as well. Please let me know I will be really grateful.

Once you are in the no command screen, hold down power button and then press volume up button once. Immediately after that, let go both buttons and you will enter stock recovery.
When you are in recovery mode, "no command" is the default screen for it. Just shortly press and release power + volume up again and menu shows. Don't hold it for too long or your phone will fully reboot to recovery again.
Thank you so much dear brothers

That's means that TWRp recovery has not been overwriting on stock recovery. In my opinion You should attempt once again to flash recovery via fastboot mode.
i am trying to boot and flash treble recovery {cosmic dan}
i am able to boot into twrp but when i press reboot int recovery from twrp ...... it goes to no command screen ..
i have tried flashing stock rom {android 9}......... screen goes to android one boot screen----until battery goes 0%

[Need help] flash recovery successful, but failed to boot into twrp

I followed the steps in this forum to flash recovery modified 4core twrp. The steps were all successful till I click on recovery and tried to boot into twrp.
Unlock my phone
Boot into boot loader
fastboot flash recovery modified twrp.img
Swith to recovery mode, click power button, then it went back into boot loop.
Not sure anyone had the same issue? How to resolve this?

me too all have been successful ..cannot boot into twrp.
can someone teach me how...pllleeeaaseeee
Did you guys find a solution somehow?
How are you booting into twrp? Via adb or manually through the button combo?
This is just a guess but maybe you need to root before you reboot.
I'm not sure how to go about it but I think there is a way to flash magisk.zip after you flash the custom twrp maybe someone with a little more knowlage can answer that.
Again I'm.not even sure if that is the solution or not.
I got it, I did a mistake during the button combo. Thats the way I boot twrp for the first time after flashing twrp: Press Vol- & Power, wait for vibration of the phone, release Power & keep holding Vol- until twrp boots up. this works now for my z1c

thanx for the reply i replaced the old phone as it was not booting at all after i tried to revert back to .247 . but then the new phone i got was already on .318 so same twrp not installing issue someone said something like twr(pie) worked for them but i cant find anything like that. can u help me with that. thanx in advance.
Enter fastboot mode,flash twrp recovery,then go to recovery by pressing volume down and power button.if it boots OS then it will be replaced by stock recovery.so if you can't boot to recovery first time(BEFORE BOOTING OS) ,repeat the same process.
Any update on this , I tries installing TWRP version twrp-3.2.3-0-X00T-20180902.img but its the default recovery That I am getting.

Hi guys.
I'm lost!
Wonder if anyone could help a newbe like myself!
So:
I havae unlocked the bootloader, flashed with newest twrp recovery img.
Then?? I cannot boot into twrp for some reason!
I wonder if there is only a specific release of twrp that my phone allows, or can I get whichever??
And also.... Once it's done and I try to long press the volume up + power button, it doesn't seem to get me anywhere.
What am I missing??
All the tutorials and the thread I read make perfect sense...but then I fail miserably!
Please help!
Thanks!!!
Nobody?? Please help!! ??
Guys?!

Question Help with Nothing phone stuck in Fastboot mode (A13 Beta 1.5.1)

Hello,
I was trying to downgrade my phone from the beta to Android 12 and it's now stuck in Fastboot mode. Won't let me enter recovery. Tries to boot but just stays on the nothing logo. My bootloader is unlocked. I'm assuming I need the same firmware I was running to reload onto the phone. Any other files needed?
Thank you so much! cheers

I can't enter recovery mode. Only fastboot.
Flash boot and vendor_boot and you'll be right back in recovery
If it's not booting try set active slot to either a or B and flash the images mentioned above

I'm having a similar issue coming off a fastboot stuck device. I guess I managed to delete the recovery mode from slot B so I can't get into fastbootd to flash some of the lower level partitions to make my fingerprint sensor work.
The vendor_image is the recovery?
Did you guys find any solution? I am stuck with my phone stuck in the bootloader mode and I can't seem to do anything.
Here's what I did:
1) Unlocked bootloader while being on NOS 1.5.1 Beta. Successfuly did it.
2) Restarted my phone to bootloader mode and flashed dtbo, boot and vendor_boot from SuperiorOS 11th Feb build.
3) Proceeded to restart to recovery as mentioned in the instructions but instead of restarting to recovery, it restarted to bootloader.
4) Stuck in bootloader mode ever since!
Nothing seems to be working. I have tried literally everything but cannot get past the bootloader. Please help. I don't have any secondary device to use.
