not sure if i will be of any help or you already figured it out. but what once worked for me is to press power as soon as you see sony logo right away let go and hold volume up only. but quick like. than continue to hold volume up. if not try volume down same direction. i think the button changes if your rooted.

There is a key combination. Search it on google. How to boot lg optimus (your model) into recovery. Once in wipe data then wipe cache

From searching other forums and google I found the following:
You can enter update mode by removing the battery, then while holding down the VOL + button plug in your usb cord(i assume while it's connected to your computer).
Then you can search the forums here and find:
[LG P970] Upgrade Kit 3.5
(the title is longer than this i just didn't put it all in here due to laziness)
This should help you in your quest of retrieving your phone from light up paperweight status. I don't really know though. Since I've never used your phone. Good luck.
recovery mode
you need to press the home button,volume -, and power,
to enter to the recovery mode.
sorry for my bad english.
Does not work on the LG-P970g from Telus aka Optimus Black
To get into Recovery mode :
Press and hold Volume down + Home key
then press and hold the above combination and also press and hold power button for a while
You'll get into Recovery mode
Hope it helped :angel:

The Home key is actually the touch key on the Optimus Black..it's not a button but a touch input
The combination is the same as above :good:

Doesn't work when you power up your device with those keys.
Power on your device before you press the key combination.
Took me a frustrating half an hour to find out...

tried to get into recovery with the instructions, but a straight boot!
BTW I am on stock gingerbread ROM rooted!
power up your phone, then press and hold vol down + home key and then also press and hold the power button until the phone restarts. then it should boot into recovery.
btw i made a small video tutorial

power up your phone, when the buttons start to blink (or the cm logo appears or whatever boot logo you have) press and hold vol down then press power button (home key is not really needed like the video ) . it also works on stock rom if you have a recovery installed.
note that it won't work at the early bootup when the lg logo appears or when android is booted and ready.

It takes me in safe mode, i'm not even sure what it is (I guess is something similar to window's? It has less apps when I am in safe mode!
I'm not sure what to do, I tried to reboot in recovery mode with the ROM manager but it doesn't work (nothing of the ROM manager works actually).
Any ideas on what safe mode is?
Thanks!
UPDATE:
I tried this app to reboot in recovery mode
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.siriusapplications.quickboot&hl=en
It rebooted the phone, the android robot showed up with some stuff turning in the stomach (like this: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/76/Android_Update_Screen.JPG) and then it turned on normally except that all my data now is gone (which is not a problem since I wanted to wipe it from the recovery mode, the problem is that I still can't get into recovery mode!
P.S.: it wouldn't let me post normal links because I'm a new member, I hope I didn't break any rule posting them like this! (after all it's not spam!)
Hi, I installed new rom ([JB] [P4--P4WIFI--P4VZW] 4.1.2 AOKP), but i didnt canceled the security of lockscreen with PIN. After install old PIN doesnt work and i dont have access to my tablet. Version of my recovery is: Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP) - 2.3.1.1.
holding power and volum down button redirect me to download menu
holding power and volume up button just reset tablet
what i must do now?
pls any ideas how to get to recovery menu?
It doesn't make sense that you wouldn't be able to access recovery on a hard reset unless you're using the wrong key combination.
Hold Power and Volume down which is right next to power, and keep holding them until you see the Galaxy tab logo. Then let go of Power ONLY and keep holding volume down. That should result in two options...recovery on the left, and download on the right. Let go of volume down as soon as you see the two icons, then press volume down once to select recovery, then volume up to select it.
Good luck!

Getting into download mode can be tricky. First, power off the tablet.
Then, hold the volume down button down - that's the volume button closest to the power button.
While holding volume down, hold power. When you see the samsung logo, release JUST the power button.
Apparently some models of the GTAB have the volume buttons reversed, but for the 7510 it's volume down.

Thanks for reply. When should I do that combination? While the phone is off or while is stuck on this screen? How long should I hold power key? Just for a second or until something happens?

Same thing, it got booted up in Android but this time it says "Safe mode" in the bottom left corner (can't remember if it said that last time).
Power off ur phone before following the above key combination and wait until the screen turns back on.
Don't understand you, but I think you should go to download mode and reinstall TWRP.
