####should be in general or Q & A section####
once you see the fastboot at the top you have to scroll down untill you see android recovery. volume down until you see it. then volume up to enter. then you will get the droid and triangle, hit both volume up and down and the menu will op
**edit** this is the stock recovery, not recovery used to flash roms and create NAND backups.
Must have your phone plugged into the wall charger and not a USB connected device like a PC.

this is true for BSR system recovery, for stock android recovery you do not need to be plugged in.
U might need to sbf if ur phone can't get into bootstrap via powerdown and plugging in.
or if a data wipe from Android stock recovery doesn't help.
There is a very nice tutorial on how to do it...a couple of em....one is a sticky so its easy to find...

Yeah...sbf isn't really that complicated...especially once u have all files/programs u need already installed it really.is only a 15min process depending on computer speed.
I use my sisters computer and the flash is done within 10minutes every time...
And yeah after rereading the op I also think they were looking for stock recovery.
Power and volume down. Then scroll wit volume down til u see android recovery. Then volume up to enter.
Once.u see triangle &exclamation point press volume up&down together. Presto.
But even still. Every time I have been stuck at M logo I needed to sbf...no amount of data wipes would help me...especially the first time it happen to me since I deleted init and build.prop. DURP! Lol

I cant get my phone to go into recivery mode. From searching a few other threads, it seems my option is to rerurn the phone as defective. Please tell me Thats not true!! Is there no other way?? Thanks
download ROM Manager from Market and reboot into recovery that way
I looked that up in the market. The phone has to be rooted first. I cant root it because I cant get into recovery.

I dunno if you have tried this, but try doing what I do, follow the instructions exactly, and it may work for you, let me know if it does.
1) START with your phone off, no usb cables attached.
2) Press volume down AND volume up at same time, keep them pressed in the entire time, do NOT let go. I prefer to hold my phone in landscape, this gives me better control with my fingers.
3) WHILE holding down volume up and volume down, press and hold power button, DO NOT LET GO OF ANYTHING. You should be holding down volume up, volume down, and power, DON'T LET GO! HOLD ON... and proceed to next steps, dont let go!
4) PHONE will start, you will see the white Vibrant logo. STILL DON'T LET GO, volume down, volume up, and power all pressed.
5) White Vibrant logo disappears, still dont let go!
6) White Vibrant logo re-appears again for the second time. When the white vibrant logo appears the second time, let go of the power button, but keep holding down volume down and volume up.
7) Phone begins to enter recovery mode, you can let go finally.
8) To exit, select "reboot system now" and use your power button to select, you will exit recovery mode.

+1, I have a hardware locked vibrant too and the 1-click root worked flawlessly, its the only way guaranteed to work.
PS: you might have to copy the update.zip file manually into the phone cause it failed to copy it automatically for me
You can also root by downloading the Android SDK and using it to boot into recovery. That's how I rooted.

That way makes me kinda nervous. I know this is a stupid question, but how do you know if your pc is a 32 or 64 bit system. You can see why im nervous now...
Go to control panel. Then go into system and maintenance. Then pick system. You should see the system type there.
ADB is easy. If you haven't already, do a search on ADB for dummies in the G1 forum.

You are probably right. But Im going to try after I do a little more research.
Was trying to flash new rom from boot recovery and keep getting stuck in a boot loop that takes me from samsung vibrant screen to boot recovery, no matter what i do i cant get out of boot recovery. Im new to the game so there might be a way to fix it and get the rom on it or get the stock flashed again but all i really need is anyway to get the phone working again ASAP
pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease help, im phoneless and my vibrant is stuck in recovery mode.... someone with experience please help me!!!
you need to odin. sounds like you didnt disable a lag fix or something but its no problem if you just odin back to stock, preferrably jfd and just do-over.
theres some tricks in the link to my sig and the odin thread is on the first page of this board. so it wont be hard to find. if any i am up for another hour. pm me!
We will need more info. What exactly did you do?

Yeah go ahead and use the following Link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=771111
Download Odin and Official T-Mo Vibrant JFD firmware. Once done open up Odin on your PC. I would do a battery pull first then when your done plug the phone into your PC and iniciate the 3 button combo to get into download mode. Then just put your 512 pit file and your JFD rom into pda. Then flash away.
What recovery are you in 2e,3e,voodoo ? If you had a backup you can restore. First you have to locate the backup or the original rom zip. Look through sdcard and find them. If you had rom manager, look in cwm backups, you might find nandroid backups there. You'll have to install original zip or backup. Original if on sacard should'nt be hard to find. Be patient and don't do anything drastic !

i rooted the phone, downloded titanium back up and rom manager, tried to flash the sonofskywalker rom that is on rom manager, after multiple tries where the phone would just reboot to the way it was "stock" then i tried to flash it by going through the sd card i beleive and now it stuck in recovery mode and will only boot thru to the samsung vibrant screen then goes back to recovery, or when it is plugged in it just shows the battery sign but the battery sign doesnt say charging it is just frozen on that screen.

try this:
Take everything out of the phone
Plug the USB into your pc
Hold ONLY the volume keys down (keep them held)
Plug the USB into your phone
Put the battery back in should be download mode
Let go of the volume keys

so when i do that it just brings up the big charging battery and it has the little sun dial in the middle that usually indicates loading, but it just stays stuck on that screen. Thats why im so confused it wont go past that screen.
EDIT- and i am leaving the sd card and the sim card out when im doing that correct? although i have tried it both waysss.
And it does the same thing if you hold all three buttons down and let the charging indicator flash 2 times and when it goes out on the third time let go of the power button only?
If it doesn't work with that method you may actually have a hardware locked phone that you need a jig for..

yea it does the same thing, when its plugged in so far nothing will come up but the frozen battery screen......... im not exactly sure what a jig is or how to use it haha but when its plugged in thats what happens, and if it isnt pluggged in it takes me to recovery screen.......
thats really odd because it shouldnt go to the charging screen in the amount of time it takes to bring up download mode.
Your absolutely sure your holding both the volume keys down and putting the battery in with your other hand with it plugged into the phone and pc... because it should skip the charging animation all together.

wow do we have a real one?
if I remember well it would always say failed to boot 2 and rsd would be available .
Is this a Dx2?
Apparently he is getting a failed to boot 1 ..I think I remember seeing this before.
It might be in one of the.older sbf tutorial threads...myabe the one by dag425.
It would be helpful (maybe) to know what was being done that caused this to happen.
Hopefully he wasn't messing with bootloader partitions and signatures or something. I think that would he just about the only thing that could hard brick us.

If u hold power and volume up it takes u directly into "starting RSD protocol "

I am stuck here too! I only have two options:
1: fastboot
or
2: nvflash
I have no idea what the hell eather one does so any little help is greatly appreciated for this noob. Thanks in advance...
So I take it yours says "failed to boot 1" also?
Is this Dx2 or mx2?
And you are familiar w/ booting menu: pwr on wait 1/2 (or less) sec then vol down and keep selecting w/ vol dn then vol up to select . Rsd is last.

Ok, so I got an Atrix 4g from my dad the other day. So I decided to root it, I never rooted and had no idea what I was doing. I followed this guide to root it. http://www.atrixforums.com/forum/mo...t-atrix-4g-1-mac-2-3-4-2-3-6-os-versions.html . Than once I got it rooted and I'm not sure if it was a temp or permanent root, but I unlocked the system files read only and made them R/W. Next I wanted to get the touchscreen hack found here, http://www.atrixforums.com/forum/mo...mod-multi-touch-hack-enable-up-10-points.html . Without backing up or anything I was so confident that it'll work I went to System/ etc/ touchscreen/ and changed the NUMTOUCH2 to NUMTOUCH 5 in files 21 & 22 like the instructions said. Than to check if it worked properly, I rebooted my atrix 4g. When it came back on the touch screen was completely unresponsive. Only the power and volume rockers work. Next I dig my hole even deeper and do a factory reset, and format everything using the vol down/ power method. Now. My phone loads, it's factory stock, and the touchscreen is still unresponsive, to make matters worse, since i reset it the USB Tether mode is off and I can't even access the system files to return the NUMTOUCH back to 2. Please help me, if there's no hope, I'll just resort back to my flip phone since my girlfriend broke my Samsung smartphone's screen.http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

I SBF flashed it, everything went well, except it got stuck on "waiting for phone" and nothing happened, I had 15% battery so I unplugged it and charging it now. Thing is I can't go into bootloader mode just RSD. If i hold vol down+power fastboot comes up not recovery or anything, vol up+power works. any ideas?

Power off the phone. Power on holding power button + vol up. Make sure before the battery is fully charged and install the correct driver in windows.
Be very careful. This procedure can ruin your phone forever.
Hi guys,

If you're not rooted you might want to take it in to be looked at.. If you don't want to do that..We can Odin a one-click onto it and get you back up.. From there you could root or put a custom ROM of you're liking on it.. But first if I was you I would drain the power all the way off it..( tape the power button down or use rubber bands ) for a few days.. Then plug it in..if the charging animation comes up then..let it charge..when it gets above 60 or so percent..you can try toturn it on.. If that doesn't work and you don't want to go the Odin route hit me back and we can try a factory reset.. I'll walk you through it.. Let me now you're decision...

Did you have usb plugged in when you tried to enter download mode?
If so, try without usb.

OK..I'm back home... .. So you have the device unplugged.. Then hold down the power button and volume down button( closest to power button ) at the same time...( hold for a min ).. If it starts showing the Samsung animation keep holding until a screen comes up with a box like object on the left and an android on the right..I think its an android on the right..Might be something else,but there will be just two things ( choices on the screen )...If you get this far.. I'll walk you through a factory reset..Or we might just wipe cache first and see if it boots.. Then a factory reset..

Put it on the wall charger and see if the charging animation comes up....if it does...let it charge.. I think we can get it into recovery or download mode if not recovery....if we get to recovery... You will probably have to do a factory reset,but I want you to tell me what options you have in recovery.. been a while since I seen stock recovery..can't remember ..We'll proceed from there..if the charging animation doesn't come up..let it charge anyway... I need to see where it stands so I can help you proceed correctly.......Just looked at stock recovery..we will have to do a factory reset...
@Gil81
If you need any missing files I can set up a dropbox (which I was thinking of doing anyway)...I have boot images, recovery images, system dumps from early releases, nvflash, boatloader and all the rest. Think the battery drain looks the only option for him at moment.

Ok so i get nothing on screen when i tried to power it up or boot in download mode. after a 1:30 charge time.
i let it charge for 5 hours and it didn't change anything.
I opened the tab and unpluged the battery press the power button for a few seconds and plug it back. Didn't change anything.
Is there something else i should try?
Thank you

Hi guys,
I'm have a GT-P7510 that won't power up. usually when the battery died i just had to press power button for 10 -15 sec and it boot up. But now, nothing. except when plug in a computer
the tab was shown as apx device in device manager.
i installed the apx driver and it is now shown as NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for Mobile devices
I search for a fix but i didn't find any yet.
You guys have any fix for me?
thank you

Since you state that it powers up into apx mode and can't seem to get it to do anything else. I'm afraid you're in a situation I encountered over a year ago. I was unable to find anything to help while only in apx mode. I ended up sending it in for repair. The battery drain method has work for some and I used to point people to the post. It seems that most people having issues similar to yours were not getting any results from it recently.
Hopefully someone does have something that will help you get back out of apx mode.
I wish you the best of luck.

What do you mean ( opened the tab )...I got ya..had to re-read the thread..Sorry..but I'm helping 4 people in two different threads... .. I think the power drain might be you're only solution at this point...if you have already tried that by pulling the battery..then youre going to have to take it in I think...Sorry I couldn't be more helpful...let me now what ya think...
