Sprint G5 will not boot into bootloader mode, help! - LG G5 Questions & Answers

I can boot into recovery, but when I select "reboot to bootloader" it just reboots as normal. Same for when I try "adb reboot bootloader." It just does a regular reboot.
Any help?

Have you made any changes to your device from stock?

Just a regular reboot if I hold the volume up and power button too

It may be a Sprint thing. I get the same exact results

How to get into Recovery- Please help

I just flashed this 2.01.605.0- Basic Debloat ROM. There's an error when I click the phone and an error when I try to get on to markplace. How do I get back to recovery? I don't have ROM manager and I cant get to marketplace to download. Realized the hold power and vol down only works on bamf. Please help.
try holding vol up and powering up at the same time.
Also, does your rom have the reboot into recovery when you try to power down and select restart?
Hold power+volume down is how you get to hboot. It is not rom specific. So boot your phone holding Power and Volume Down then select Recovery in the list you are presented with and hit Power.
Also make sure you don't have fast boot enabled, if you do pull the battery then power+volume down. If all else fails "adb reboot recovery" will get you there from adb.

If your power led is still on...
try to press power button for at least 10 sec (force a hard reset).
Power led should go off afterwards.
Then try again to get in to recovery mode by pressing vol down + power button.
What happens?

[Q] Recovery Menu

Hi All.
I might be missing the obvious here but how do you get into recovery on these things?
I've read loads of posts and tried various combinations with Vol+/- and Power, Wait for the light then do the same..... Nothing!!
I've put root on it it but left the bootloader looked. The device says I can unlock it if I want. It's the 16GB Wifi model (UK)
Any ideas where I'm going wrong?
Thanks

Maybe you;re mixing the fastboot method and cwm method on your head..
if you're question is how will you get to recovery then my answer is VOL UP.
power on your xtz and when the "SONY" shows up simply spam the vol up and you're good :good:

Thanks for the reply. If I'm reading what you put right, it's:
Hold Vol up
Press Power
Wait for Sony logo then ? Not sure what you meant by "when the "SONY" shows up simply spam the vol up"
Thanks

Haha, Thanks for your help. I appreciate it.
I'm laughing because I still haven't got a clue what SPAM VOLUME means so I'm going to go for HOLD VOLUME.

LOL, I even ended up on the Urban Dictionary... I'm thinking..Oh no, it's one of those young people phrases again!!
Thanks again for the help though, I'll get that dual recovery installed I think. I'm not even planning on flashing it. I just want a good backup.
Hello Zach181,
have succeeded in holding the vol up ?
I have the same trouble and can't access the recovery mode.
press power on
wait for the sony logo to appear
hold the vol up button
but nothing happens, it boots in the normal way.
thanks
Let's try to make it clear.
The device does not come from factory with any button combination that can get you into any recovery.
You need to flash a custom recovery first.
The process for "XZDualRecovery" is to wait a second after the sony logo appears and then when the notification light turns green hold Volume Up for CWM, Volume Down for TWRP.
Might be different for other recoveries, but at least try this method.
Let me clear it too...
its NOT HOLD
but SPAM or KEEP PRESSING
:good::good::good:

What works for me is HOLD the correct volume button, but not from the start, but from the time the LED turns green.

I must admit that I have put it in fastboot but only if holding from the power on and not pressing repeatedly. I've been too engrossed with my new toy to try much but I will sort recovery today.
So what we are saying is...
No recovery Installed
Power and hold Vol up = Fastboot
Recovery Installed
Power (Wait for light) Vol up = CWM ---- Vol Down = The other one (Forgot the name)
That still leaves us with fastboot mode with recovery. Would that be as I said at the beginning of this post... Power on and hold Vol Up straight away (Don't wait for the light)

Stuck in a bootloop

So my phone is stuck in a bootloop after flashing a rom.
I know I just need to get into recovery mode and delete cache and data however I can't do that without the help of adb.
The problem is adb won't recognize my phone/usb and I don't know what to do. Help would be greatly appreciated.
Btw I am using a lenovo a5000
Anyone?

Is it possible that pushing volume up is how you make the selection? Does the device reboot when you press volume up? I know on some devices, volume down allows you to choose your option, example: reboot/recovery/bootloader options. Then pressing volume up chooses that selection.

If you can highlight the recovery selection, press power to select or press volume up to select.

Nothing happens, that's the problem, when I am in the selection screen I can only move to highlight options but whichever I choose I still stay in that screen until I forcefully exit by rebooting or the battery dies

How to enter fastboot mode on Oppo A39?

I've tried to press and hold Power Button + Volume Up, but it doesn't work.
adb reboot bootloader from adb & fastboot also doesn't work, it reset the phone then back to home screen.

Uh, another A39/CPH1605 user here. I think you're trying to root this device. You basically can't reboot your phone into it, without TWRP.
