I recently rooted/unlocked but need to return to stock. I have the file to get back to stock but how do I boot get my phone to download mode? When I use power/home/vol up it takes me to TWRP everytime.
Thanks for any help that you can provide.

You should use the x10 flashtool and flash the 2.1 firmware and start all over

flashed an odin package ??
that happens on simply honey sometimes, going into recovery (GB bootloaders needed - vol down and power) and disabling voodoo fixes it, reboot and leave for 15 min then you can enable voodoo whenever you want

ODIN requires download mode not recovery. Can you access download mode with the buttons?
- If so, then just ODIN. Also, if you can get download mode maybe try to ODIN the GB-bootloader and try the fix above.
Good luck!

no i cant get into download mode either
1. Pull the battery.
2. Hold down both volume up + down buttons
3. Insert the battery.
4. Wait a few moments.
Enjoy download mode.
I was having the same issue as the OP, so my question is how do you disable voodoo? Anyone know?

I can't get to download mode after flashing a firmware from the forum.
Every time I try in the combination it just turns on the phoe and not going into download mode.

Does the phone boots up fine though?
Recovery access is fine?
Might be just a mechanical issue with the volume rocker. Or, you might want to consider using a usb jig to force it to download mode.
You don't have Advanced Power Menu settings on your custom rom? Do you have download mode available when holding power button in (phone already powered up)?
If not, you can try this "Reboot ++ (Quick Boot)" free on the Market.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.krm.reboot
There are other ways, such as installing custom rom with APM, and flashing a matching CF-root kernel from Chainfire. This will give root, custom recovery, his own CWM manager app (allows rom nan-backups and boot straight into DL mode / recovery etc.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
At least with these methods, there shouldn't be any problem.
If you are trying to enter DL mode from power off, ensure you hold ALL buttons in, and don't release. In this order; volume down + home + power on. Once prompted, release keys and volume up.

Well it appears I had a bad flash with cm10 and the inverted gapps. I tried holding down volume up home and power to boot into recovery but it just tries to boot into the phone. I also tried volume down home and power same thing. I finally tried volume up volume down and power and still booted into the phone. Anyone have any ideas?
Did you let the buttons go as soon as the phone vibrates?

Are you able to boot into ODIN download mode? If so, you can flash CWM and then pull the battery after and go straight into recovery.

I wasn't able to do anything without using the toolkit to reboot into recovery. CWM is installed but I can't seem to boot into it. I used rom manager to reflash CWM not sure if it's fixed it yet.
Are you able to boot the phone period? or just into recovery?

Yeah I'm able to boot the phone. I downloaded a different set of gapps now that I'm about to flash. The good thing about CM10 is the extended reboot menu so I'm able to get into CWM from there. I'll post back after the gapps finish downloading (the USB hookup isn't working on this rom yet )
Well I finally got my phone to work but I skill can't boot into recovery when the phone is turned off. Any ideas? ;(

Volume up, Home, Power - when the FIRST Samsung flashes, let go of everything but volume up. Should get you there.

I flashed a kernel on my S3 via recovery and then reboot my phone. It goes to a black screen now. When I pull the battery and power on holding volume down to go into recovery the Samsung Galaxy S3 logo keeps appearing and disappearing until I let go of the volume down key. Then it's stuck at the same black screen. When I try to put the phone in download mode to re-flash via odin it does the same thing. I'm pretty sure I'm fu*ked, but I just want to make sure there's not a way to fix this. Any ideas?

Don't worry..i have done worse things with my phone and yet to brick it..
Fist thing to go into recovery you hold vol up + power + home and not vol down..
Second thing what you will have to do is after the Odin flash..press and hold vol up+power+home..you will boot into the stock recovery..from here do a factory reset but mind you all the data on your internal sdcard will be lost when you do this..now reboot your phone..your phone will boot up properly now..assuming that you have flashed the firmware properly in Odin..

As zoot1 replied to you for download mode press vol down+home+power for a few seconds......for recovery vol up+home+power.........
And make very sure the kernel you flash is compatible with your phone and firmware!!!!!!!!!!!! The rest zoot1 explained in his reply
Good luck

Anyone have an idea what I've done.... Black screen with blue light. I can get to the recovery menu, clockwork is installed, but I can't flash a rom. The only way to get the phone to stay off is by removing the battery.
This is a Cspire L710. I've attempted to flash a Cspire_nandroid_stock zip, the phone will find it but can't open it. I missed a step somewhere I guess. I had it in download mode but made the mistake of trying the factory reset-which changed that.
I've also tried a couple of other roms with the same results.

go to download mode and flash a stock rom via odin
Cant's get to Download mode
Unless there is a way to get to download mode through the recovery menu, download mode is not an option.

Hi Guys
I flashed my phone awhile bk with XXELLB/A off sammobile. I have now decided to root my s3. I hold Home,Vol + then power., it enter recovery mode, not download mode and therefore odin isnt picking my phone up. If i boot into android connect my phone up, Odin picks it up etc but obviously am unable to do anything further.
Any suggestions as to what i can do?:crying:

Press volume up once you are in download mode
