OK, there goes a big problem, I believe that my volume button - is broken and ends up being pressed constantly, so the phone goes straight into fastboot, I have tried several commands like fb-mode-clear, reboot-bootloader ...
nothing went right, i would like to know if it is possible to disable the physical buttons via fastboot for it to boot normally....
Or some command to enable USB Debugging via Fastboot;
additional information: bootloader blocked.
Now you broke de button, you are stuck Butrón

You are not able to change anything with a locked bootloader. So you can't modify/disable the hard keys.
USB debugging in fastboot mode is not possible.
The only way to fix this is to repair the key.

I managed to turn the device on once and enabled usb debugging, is there any way to disable the volume button (-) via command or TWRP?
To boot up your phone you must press+hold Vol +, too. This combo creates a bugreport and let your phone boot normally.
When I press and hold the vol- key on my Moto I can still use it as I always do except from locking it.
Try to remap your keys by installing the app "Button Mapper: Remap your keys" (by flar2). It's available in the Play Store and runs without root permissions.

Hi, i have brick my Nexus 4, is a softbrick. i tried alot of different method to save it, but most of the method need to enable usb debugging, but i cant even load in to screen, how to enable usb debugging???? any ideas guys?
Turn off your phone, then press VOL Down + power. Phone will boot into fastboot mode. From there you can either flash whatever you want or enter stock recovery by browsing the fastboot menu with the volume keys and selecting an option with the power button.

thx for you reply
but unfortunately, i have nothing in my sd card...
Hi
The Volume Down button is jammed (the phone fell and landed on its edge slightly crushing the frame where the volume down is). Curiously the Volume Up button still increased the volume.
After turning the phone off the problem came when turning on the phone as it now only boots into the bootloader as a result of the jammed Volume Down button.
Once in bootloader mode, the volume up/down buttons do not change the reboot options - it appears the stuck Volume Down button is causing this.
The way to fix this is to take the phone apart (as per the Youtube clips) and physically straighten the frame.
This is no easy task, so the question: is there a way around this so that the phone can boot?
It's rooted and fastboot commands work. (I installed TWRP but can only boot to recovery with adb).
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
fastboot reboot system?

No, the device is reading the hardware correctly and booting to bootloader. The only way to fix this is to fix your device.

He said he could still issue fastboot commands. If the device is OFF and he has to press the POWER button to turn it on, it is reading the VOL DOWN as being pressed as well. If he issues the reboot command in Fastboot, it should boot into system because he won't need to press the POWER button and VOL DOWN (being pressed by the bent frame) at the same time, right?
OP also said he could get to recovery from ADB, but I think he meant Fastboot because ADB is only available when you are booted to Android.
Clarification
"I installed TWRP but can only boot to recovery with adb" is unclear.
I was meaning that one can only boot directly to recovery using adb. In fastboot, one can't get to recovery.
At the moment adb can't be used - only fastboot.
When I issue the fastboot reboot command, it just returns to the bootloader. I was hoping it would bypass the Volume Down state, but sadly no.
Thanks for your input though - I knew it was a longshot.
By the way, the phone wasn't dropped, but came out of my pocket going up some stairs - the bigger size makes it not as stable!
A bit late to reply, but for the sake of the next guy that comes looking, the command you were looking for is:
Code:
fastboot continue
This should tell the bootloader to boot into system.
You are still right about not being able to boot into recovery from bootloader (that's the headache I am currently having)
Any way of disabling the volume key altogether without doing anything physical to the phone?
I tried editing Generic.kl from /system/usr/keylayout/, but that only makes a difference when the phone is booted, not before that. Any way to disable the key before the phone has booted?
Cuz this is my mum's phone and she will have no idea what "fastboot" is
Hi. yesterday i bought a redmi 3s... i have put a pattern which i forgot and also a fingerprint unlock... the fingerprint unlock was working, until i tried other fingers to see if it could be fooled... obviously after too many tries, the fingerprint unlock won't unlock the phone without the unlock pattern... is there a way to hard reset such a phone ore delete user settings... i tried volume up + power button to acess the recovery menu, but when i acess it i get a weird menu saying:
your device has loaded a different operating system
for more info visit g.co/placeholder
if no key is pressed:
your device will boot in 5 seconds
if i press volume up or down, i get this menu:
power off
restart
recovery
fastboot
back to previous page
recovery and back to previous page return to the same screen mentioned above....
please help! :crying:
also, when i connect my phone in any mode to my computer via usb cable (download mode, fastboot mode, normal mode) i hear the usb connect sound but no folders open. I'd like to get to pictures made in the last 24 hours (thats the only thing you can acess without the pattern unlock on the side swipe menu).
You can still use the usb when boot using fastboot, just move to another port of usb in your PC/Laptop etc, for unlocking pattern :
Try this

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
Hi,
I have trouble unlocking my A40. It's 2nd piece I own and the problem is the same.
When I follow the steps from this forum;
Go to Developer Settings and enable "OEM Unlock" option
Power off the device and boot in download mode
In download mode, you will see the long press and volume up option to unlock the bootloader
Unlock the bootloader. That will wipe your device so be sure you made a backup of your data
After bootloader unlock, boot up the phone and make sure it is connected to the internet or it will trigger rmm prenormal
Setup the phone without google account and others
Reboot in download mode and flash the recovery and vbmeta images
Boot to TWRP
Format data in TWRP
Flash the Multidisabler zip
Now you can reboot

I'm stuck at the 3rd point.
I don't see ANY instruction about Volume UP + Power in download mode. Nor FASTBOOT see my device to run actions with it.
What I see is only "Volume down key + power key for more than 7 secs Cancel (restart phone).
And holding Vol UP + Power doesn't do anything.
How to make this work?
Thanks.

You did enable OEM Unlock, correct?
Turn the device completely off, without any cables connected. Keep a USB cable ready that's plugged into your PC.
With the device powered off, hold both Volume buttons, and plug in the USB cable connected to your PC. Do not press Power. You should see a prompt on either a green or blue screen; select the option for Device Unlock Mode.
Finally.
Thank you for making me try for another time
