My Home button is no longer working - is there any way of booting into Download mode without it??
If you have root,
1) download Terminal Emulator
2) enter "su"
3) enter "reboot bootloader"
or...
from adb: "reboot bootloader" (don't really know if it does work on adb... from Terminal Emulator)
and don't ask anymore questions in this section please, it's against the rules
Easiest way will be through and, just adb reboot bootloader.
Or you can use an extended power menu if you are on a custom rom you might need to check developer options if your on aosp.

Good Afternoon Everyone !
I'm new to the XDA , but not a Newbie in the delevoping section.
Because of a hardware problem when i changed the display of my phone
my volume keys aren't working anymore.
Today I flashed the Beanstalk ROM from the user TH3Bill, but unusally it won't start.
So i got the problem right now that it wont boot and I'm stuck with the Motorola Logo,
because I can' get into recovery. Is there any option to get into recovery without the volume
buttons or fastboot ?
PS : sry for the bad english
If you can access adb you can type "adb reboot recovery"

tried it, but it just says that now device was found , but the device is listet in the device manager as adb device interface.
that seems correct, only way to go into recovery without volume is adb or fastboot or ofcourse rebooting into recovery...(as far is i know)
do you know how to use adb?
can you see your device listed when you type adb devices?

Not really, my firstime , but i used fastboot before . but for fastboot you have to go into the fastboot mode, and without wokring volume keys that isnt possible.
No when i type in adb devices, there is no device listed at all , just the line " List of all ADB devices"
First you have to activate android debugging in settings for adb to show ur device.
Secondly, even if u boot into recovery, u cannot use recovery without volume buttons unless you flash a touch recovery, for which I think u need to boot into fastboot which again needs volume buttons...
any other solution anyone?

I cant activate anything, i flashed a new Rom and then I got into a Boot Loop, and yes i have a touch recovery
Edit: I found some threads using adb in a Boot loop, is it possible that i have the wrong drivers ? i used two different mehtods but i can't update the adb interface driver
look
Method 1 :hxxp://atrix4ghacks.com/atrix-4g-hacks/how-to-install-atrix-4g-drivers/ this is where i got stuck
I also found a second with a package to extract which was accesable from the cmd, adb started but the phone wasn't rechable
Edit Edit: It worked with the officila motorola drivers, and the normal adb-tools , thx for your support

You can use adb to enter recovery mode:
Code:
adb reboot recovery

My phone was into recovery mode but menu not shows
Is there any application that can get me into download mode without the need of pressing any button or plugging USB cable in the phone?
There's an app called Quick Boot which allows to boot into "recovery" mode without any buttons or usb cable? Is there one for download mode?
adb reboot bootloader
or use Advanced Reboot (CM10.1)
Or use any reboot app from playstore (need to be rooted) or terminal emulator use this command:
su
reboot recovery
Yeah:
su
reboot download
From a terminal emulator.
Most custom roms have extended power button to reboot into download mode

I'm having trouble sideloading the new 5.1.1 OTA update through ADB. I'm completely stock on my N9 and when I use adb while the device is booted everything works fine (adb devices lists my N9 and I can issue commands to it). When I boot into recovery however adb can no longer find my device and thus can't sideload the update.
Searching around I can find a lot of threads about Windows users having driver issues but I didn't think these applied to Macs. Am I missing something? Is anyone else having trouble using a Mac to sideload the OTA update?
Thanks in advance for anyone's help!
Enable USB debugging
Shut down tablet
Press and hold power and volume up together. You will reach a menu.
Select HBOOT
Select recovery
You will see the android with exclamation mark and "no command".
Press power + volume up
You will enter recovery menu
Select adb sideload
Push update
Worked fine on my Mac!!
Is that what you are doing?!
@crispydc,
I don't know anything about Mac's but when you are in stock recovery, and are at the menu for adb sideload you can try unplugging and replugging your USB cable.
^^^ this happened to me on my work computer (windows) just do that step after you select adb sideload.
Ah! Stupid on my end. I was trying to sideload from the screen with the Android logo - I forgot to actually enter the recovery menu and select the 'Install update from ADB' option. Sorry for the noob post and thanks for your help!
What are the steps in side loading ? Obviously download file and boot into recovery and adb but what process do i need to take when using the computer ( windows 8 )

ADB reboot recovery (you'll see Andy on his back with red !)
To access recovery menu hold power and press & release volume up
Use volume key to navigate to Apply update via ADB
On your PC type in command prompt "ADB sideload " file name""

Try to unplug and replug in your USB cable while in recovery.

At prompt, can you see your device with "adb devices" command? USB Debugging is active?
Yeah i can se my device on command prompt, my usb debugging is active. But if i go to "adb reboot bootloader", it takes me to usb logo.
I can't go to bootloader/droidboot/fastboot interface, i just can go to recovery mode
