enter recovery manually - AT&T LG Optimus G

ok I made a back up of the stock rom and did a complete wipe and flashed a rom and it wouldn`t even boot so I tired a few different button combinations to get back to recovery to do a restore, and i can get fastboot mode but tried to use the volume up and down to select recovery and I can`t , what sequence of buttons do you use to get you in to recovery ?:silly:

thanks, yeah I just figured it out, its weird that when the phone is completely shut off I do the volume up then press power button on, it takes me to fastboot, but if I keep holding volume up and release the power and push power button for the second time then it enters recovery every time, kind odd to me but it works
ok I was playing around again entering recovery manually and now I can`t everytime I hold volume up and power button and goes to fastboot, then I did the second press of the power goes right to fastboot again, is there something jack up with my phone?

hmm that kinda odd... what ROM are you trying to flash?

From bootloader screen use vol up twice then power, or vol dwn twice then power.

thanks that seems to work every time, I have the stock rom, I usually use rom Manger to reboot into recovery, but 7 times in a row with the method above from adfurgerson:good:

3 Button Boots into Android System Recovery instead of Download Mode

As the title says, I'm trying to flash 2.3.5 but when I press the three buttons I get the Android System Recovery 3e screen with 4 options instead of Download Mode. How can I fix this?
Hold volume DOWN + Home + Power in that order. Keep ALL pressed until DL Mode, then release all.

yes Volume up will take you into recovery (which will be stock recovery unless you install a custom one)
Volume down will take you into download mode.

[How to] Hboot and recovery

Not sure how many know , and this will be useful one we get root and roms
To boot into hboot, hold VOL down and power button while powering on.
Fast boot must be disabled or you must pull battery. (Thanks mallman)
When you choose recovery, you must press VOL up + Vol dwn + Pwr to access recovery options (Stock recovery) (Thanks erismaster)
Should post a full How To in the Dev forum so it can be stuck and referred to more often. It's going to get buried here in the General board.

This must be done after a battery pull, you cannot powr down the phone and do it.

I believe that's not the case. I just tried that after power down, works fine.

if you choose recovery from hboot and go to stock android recovery, pressing in both volume buttons, and the power button brings up the options to reboot now, wipe data/factory reset, and wipe cache.
thanks for this!

Don't flash anything yet. Try to do a factory reset.
Hold Vol + and - and Power button to go into Boot mode.
Press vol - once to go down to Recovery
Press Vol + once enter recovery
Press Vol - twice to select data/factory reset
Press power button to enter, then vol - to select yes to confirm reset.

What did you do before hand. Were you doing anything different or you just turn it off and on. And it did it on its own?

Flashing fastboot will restore to stock rom. Do this at your own risk, though I have flash fastboot files with no problems there's always some risk involved.
Charge your battery to full before flashing.

When you see the Droid laying on his back puts both volume buttons at the same time, that well get you into recover. Continue from step 3

Booting to Recovery

I have an odd problem. I can re-boot into recovery just fine if I select Reboot into Recovery from within my ROM. However, if I have my phone off and just want to go straight into Recovery I'm having a problem.
Pushing Vol- and the Power button at the same time just gets me a regular startup of the phone instead of booting into Recovery. Am I doing it right?
Had the same problem when stock. Only way I could get my phone to boot into recovery then was to use the commands from the Rezound All-In-One Toolkit 2.0.
I currently have Amon-Ra 3.15 installed & am S-Off with CONROM V4.
Thanks,
CxP

The Vol- and Power button has to be done in a certain way.
I think you press Vol- first, then power, and make sure you hold both of them for around 5 seconds.
Make sure you have fastboot in the settings unchecked. Power off. Press vol - , hold, and press power and hold until you get hboot.

I cant boot on recovery mode.
Am i doing somthing wrong, when i press Volum Down + Power?
Its just boot normaly, but in homescreen say is "Safe Mode"
What to do?
pull battery, reinsert battery, hold vol. down, while holding vol. down, hold the power button down til u see your h-boot screen, when your there choose recovery. or u can download a app from playstore called quickboot, it'll give u all kinds of powering down options. including boot into recovery...

Can't get into TWRP recovery from boot

I'm a bit of a noob at terminology and android settings so try to bear with me...
I'm running a deodexed vzw CleanRom v1.6.5 and I've downloaded TWRP recovery via gooManager. (Yes I've installed the recovery script from it.) Back when I had a stock rom, when I held the power + the volume up button it would go into TWRP recovery fine. But now (I don't know if it's CleanRom's fault) when I start up the phone into recovery mode using the shortcut the blue text would appear but it would restart normally.
My stock backup was corrupted for some reason and it softbricked my phone so I had to odin flash and go through all that rooting process again before restoring from my CleanRom backup via TWRP. So I don't really want to go back to stock, but I guess I can download a stock one if I really need to.
I can still enter TWRP by going into gooManager and pressing reboot recovery from there. Any solution to this?
I'm also on CleanRom 1.6.5 and it works for me... Vol up+power

To get mine to boot to recovery while phone is off I have to hold volume + and menu key at the same time. Then hit the power button until it vibrates then let go of the power button. If I keep holding the power button then the blue writing is displayed but instead of going into recovery it just reboots. However if I only hit the power button and release when it vibrates and I am still holding the volume + and menu key then it will boot to twrp recovery.
Alright, I'm feeling pretty foolish.
It was a simple user error that I really hate to admit. If I hold down the volume up and the power button and keep holding down both, the phone restarts as normal. But I should be letting go of the power button when the phone vibrates, while holding down the volume up button keeps it loading into the recovery mode. Don't know why I didn't have that problem before. I attempted Travis' idea first then experimented a little without the menu button and it worked fine.
Thanks.
Glad you got it figured out. :good:

True and that is what he said he has been doing. However what if you flash something and you get a boot loop. You can pull the battery and try again but if it boot loops again you will need to be able to get to your recovery with a non booting phone. That is why it is important to know how to boot the phone into recovery with out the need of any apps.

Precisely my thought process. I knew that at some time I'm bound to softbrick my phone again and I needed to boot recovery from startup.
