[Q] How do i get into recoverymode - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an Samsung Galaxy 5 (Europa, GT-I5500) that i have installed Cyanogen mod in, and it says this in the description:
Reboot into ClockworkMod. You can do this via adb reboot recovery, or by choosing the Reboot -> Recovery menu if you are already using CyanogenMod.
How do i do that? The only way i manage to do it in is to install Clockworkmod again and it automatically starts in reboot mode...

Download ROM manager from the market and open it then select reboot into recovery.

^This^. Hold down the power button until the options come up, select reboot, then select recovery. Since you said that you installed CyanogenMod already, these options should be there.

Ok, thought it had a button combo, like for download mode. But know I now. Thank you all....

1) If you are rooted, boot into CWM and fix permissions.
2) If this doesnt work, flash a new ROM.

You really installed an application with this as description Find all the great bars, clubs of Tel Aviv. Use our restaurant guide and enjoy our Tel Aviv event guide, and this permission Services that cost you money, directly call phone numbers, Allows the application to call phone numbers without your intervention. Malicious applications may cause unexpected calls on your phone bill..
Judging by the "developer's" other applications, and the reviews they got, I'd recommend getting rid of that ASAP.
I did got rid of it... now causing me troubles.. i need to flash new rom to fix tis ??

1st do some research
2nd Rom Manager is useless to our device
Unless you're fixing permissions
3rd if you flashed touch CWM boot up into it
By holding power button volume up and down buttons at the same time
Search don't be lazy threads like this clutter the forums
And if someone has been nice to you or helped you out
Slap that thnx button!
Have a good day

Power phone off. Hold both volume buttons. Then while holding them, hold power button also. When the phone vibrates, let go of power button. When you see Samsung, let go of volume buttons.
Do some more research before you put stuff on your phone. You can mess it up by not reading first. Read much. Read often.

you can not reboot into recovery. you must ......1 turn off. 2 hold volume down. 2 press power until vibration while not letting go of volume down. let go of power but wait for screen to show letters and then switch from vol down to vol up and then let go and wait.
cwm is not the best recovery tool for tf201.
Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but I believe in order to use rom manager to install cwm you need to have root.

You can download goomanager from play store, hit menu and choose install open recovery script, it will install twrp

No reboot option?

Why does the Nexus 10 not have a Reboot option when I long press the power button?
My N10 is rooted but stock. Other than flashing a custom ROM is there a way to add a reboot option?

Unless somone makes a flashable zip, currently no. Until I flashed a custom rom I used terminal emulator for 'su' then 'reboot'.
A lot more work but it gets the job done.

There's an app called QuickBoot in the PlayStore that works well if you're rooted.

+1 for this. I use it and it works great. You can add an application shortcut on one of your homescreens to reboot, reboot to bootloader or reboot to recovery.
Have u tried to hold the power button when u are on lockscreen until the display is off ?

This ROM can be flashed over the top of your current, and has the options you're looking for: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2043633
Edit: Sorry, my first post is a link... but I just installed it myself and noticed you were asking.
Appreciate all the suggestions. Thanks guys.

Stock Nexus ROMs never had a reboot option. You can only get it via a ROM or some mod.
There is a reboot option on stock. You need to press and hold power button for about 6 seconds.

I meant in the power menu. Is that method a safe method? I feel like it's the same as holding the power button for 10 seconds on a PC. It turns off but it doesn't save anything.
It is the same only without a widget or something else xd
