Hello All,
I have been trying to boot my SG2 in Download mode but unfortunately it never boots.
I have tried every combination possible (up volume/down volume + home + On/Off )
but the phone wont be boot.
Appreciate your help.
But it boots up normally?
That's strange. Turn phone off, once off, hold Vol down + home + power and hold until a screen comes up warning you about installing custom firmwares.
If that doesn't work you may need a usb jig.

If the three button combo is not working try a usb jig to get into download mode.. Is the phone working properly??

sure you're in the right forum if you have a home hard key ??
key combo for vibrants is vol up and down and power or vol up and power with GB bootloaders
doing it with kies it automatically goes to download mode
and it doesnt matter if rooted or not
The button combination can be tricky to get into either download mode or recovery, just keep trying it eventually it should werk. You should probably look into purchasing a jig. Good luck!

if all the above fail and are familiar using adb you can just adb reboot download .that will throw you into download mode. just a future reference.
Hi
I am trying to get into the download mode using the vol down + power the phone just seems to keep rebooting
if i hold the vol dwn and insert usb cable that works , the jig method also works
just the vol dwn + power doesnt work , does anyone else have the same issue ?
Thanks

I have always used the following and never had it fail:
With a device that is turned off:
Hold VolUp + VolDn
Insert USB cable - no need to hit Power
VolUp + VolDn + Power with no USB cable inserted will put you into recovery mode (3e for stock kernels, CWM for custom kernels). Note that you need to let go of Power when the screen turns on but keep holding VolUp + VolDn.
With a device that is turned on, I usually do "adb reboot download".
That button combo works for the i9100 version of the phone.
For the i777 our att version it its
1. Make sure phone is powered off
2. Have the USB cable attached to your computer but NOT your phone yet
3. Hold down both volume up and down (do NOT touch the power button) and plug in your USB to your phone
4. Accept the warning that flashing custom modified software your phone could cause problems
And bingo your in download mode
Or optionally buy our make a USB jig which will put phone intro download mode and reset your binary flash counter.

For anyone like me that finds this thread, With my I777 you had to hold power, vol up, and home. Hit accept and then you could plug in.

Not sure, I did it on windows using ODIN to flash a custom recovery. Then used the recovery to load and install new ROMs

hi i hav galaxy grand i cant enter download mode becoz the volume buttons are not working .so how can i enter download mode...i want to flash
official firmware to give it to service centre,....help me out plz
hi, i rooted my samsung galaxy s2 and installed clockworkmod and everything was fine...until i flash the ROM (GINGERMOD). I decided that ROM wasnt for me so i hold on the power button and went into recovery mode. Now my phone goes into recovery mode everything i rs it and i cant exit recovery mode because the HOME OR power button doesnt work. It seems clockworkmod is unreponsive to the buttoms and i cant exit it. when i do a hard boot, it goes back to recovery mode and does the same thing....WHAT do i do? thanks.
Try using volume button to navigate in CWM.
You also could try a usb jig to force it in download mode.

You can't go into download mode? Try taking out your battery, and then going into download mode with vol down + home´+ power button so you can flash stock ROM via Odin
Asked a stupid question which I worked out 2 minutes later, please ignore
Help,
My phone just stuck at the Samsung Galaxy SII GT-19100G screen..
I can't enter CWM recovery mode or Download mode as well
When I press Volume Button UP + Home + Power, it will turn off the phone and never turn back on. When I release the Volume Button Up + Home, it turned back on and stuck at the screen again.
In fact I can't even power off my phone.. When I power off it, it will auto restart and stuck at the screen again..
Anybody.. please help
I'm only taking a wild stab in the dark here but my guess is you flashed firmware for the I9100 onto your I9100G device.
Best to download firmware for the "G" model and flash via download mode. If you have a jig it might come in handy.
Looks like you have some research to do. Good luck.

For reference Vol Up + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Manual Mode, not turn it off. Vol Down + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Update Mode.

NO NO NO it puts the phone to RECOVERY MODE
not turn it off. Vol Down + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Update Mode
NO NO NO It puts the phone to DOWNLOAD MODE .
