it's dead plzzz help me to fix it
Are u referring to the market? if so... while on market page..press the menu button.
No. Download mode... hold volume down and boot it up, just hold down both until it pops up.
Why is it that there are like 4 different ways posted of how to boot into Download mode on each of the download mode threads but none of them work for me? Is it because I'm retarded and missing something simple or is this phone really that touchy to boot into download mode?
Can someone either post a very detailed account of how to boot the phone into Download mode or post a picture as proof that you have reached download mode successfully so I can at least know what it is supposed to look like should I ever make it there. Prob a good thing I havent made it there yet as I'd just end up flashing the wrong rom and mess up my phone, but it is just really bugging me that people have been posting about this, yet none of the methods in the posts have worked for me.
So far I've tried vol up+pow, vol down+pow, and vol up/down+pow with usb plugged in....Vol up+pow from the phone being fully booted and all the other combinations from recovery and the charging battery screen. What am I missing? Thanks to anyone who can point out my retardation, should it be my fault that it is not working for me.
I have recorded a video for my problem

I was able to root my Vibrant following the thread in here... u gotta hold down BOTH the volume up and down keys AND the power key.... it worked... ( use ur right hand...three fingers to make sure u do it right)
thank you
I tried these
Hold down; {volume both UP and DOWN + Power }
Hold down; {volume both UP and DOWN + Power } + plug in USB
Hold down; {volume DOWN + Power } = Recovery mode
Hold down; {volume UP + Power } = upload mode !
I tried more than 5 millions times what can i do
are there a ways open the internal SDcard then put update.zip and use recovery mode instead download mode ?
I had this same problem also the first day I got my phone...I installed an update.zip that caused the phone not to boot, and for the life of me could not get it into download mode to flash with odiin3. I read all the download mode post, so I thought maybe it was whatever I installed in the update.zip that cuased the button layout to change and thats why I couldn't figure it out. But I returned the phone...and now I still cannot get the phone into download mode.
To my understanding holding vol up+down and then hitting power sends you into recovery, which is totally different from download mode...So can someone clear this up...is the same screen displayed for download and recovery, just with different modes activated on the phone, or do they both show different pictures? Also again...I have still not reached download mode...so if you have a detailed account of how to do such...please post it...
Thanks.
Adb push update.zip /sdcard/update.zip
Do that while in recovery...
Also, I if vol down and power don't work try vol up because you may have flashes a European updated and their buttons are different. For me if flipped the volume buttons.
Oh, and hold the buttons through two cycles seems to help me

Ok, I made a sh**ty video just now, uploading to youtube...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9LYLoK1Qog
EDIT: The video isn't the best, the camera apparently didn't like the screen much and the lighting is bad but I think it gets the point across... Sorry for being so monotone...
I tried to open internal;Sdcard but I couldn't iconsider that is the solution
I need to give an authorization to do this like : Mount from the notification menu to open the internal sdcard
I wrote some commands by run so appear to me; permission denied

iam going to go to t-mobile store they might solve my problem
I seriously can't get my vibrant to download mode. I have check every combination and no I haven't flssh any firmware. I am in the stock one. This is serious problem. Could it be that it has being block in any way by tmobile?? But them there are some of you that can get into download more very easy. Mine just won't. I can get to recovery mode.

2. hold Volume Down + hold power at the same time - vibrant splash screen - reboot after 10 secs.
3. hold power then hold Volume Down - vibrant splash screen - reboot after 10 secs.
4. hold Volume Down then press power and release - vibrant splash screen - boot of firmware very slow.

I'm having the same problem. Simply cannot get into download mode. I have to believe that something else is going on here!
hi guys
I went to RadioShack I told them , I was honest to explain the problem that I downloaded a wrong firmware EU on my phone so the software broken
although they exchange the phone hhhhh
I am so happy now
i really won't back to rooting and "download mode" until hell freezes over
I'll be a polite customer just waiting the officially updates

Just rooting isnt that dangerous... it was the fact that it was the wrong firmware, not just that you flashed the firmware. Either way it's your choice and if you are happy with that more power to you, but the risk of doing anything with the rooting process is pretty low.
I've had good repeatable luck getting into download mode as follows:
1. Power down phone with no USB cable connected.
2. Once you see "good bye" connect USB cable.
3. Wait till battery indicator is visible, and you can see the current charge in green.
4. Hold vol+ and vol-.
5. Press power until screen goes black, then let go of power only.
6. Should see the yellow digger.
Again, your mileage may vary.

I can not thank you enough for this. Although I just took the battery out instead of powering down. So it appears the key is to making sure the battery indicator is on, and that you release the power button as soon as the screen goes black. I tried so many other combinations...even holding the power button past the screen turning black, but I got this on first try.
Thanks!
If you've got ADB setup just do 'adb reboot recovery'...
Is there a differnence between download mode and recovery mode?
I have Samsung Galaxy Win Duos Gt-I8552.
I have problem to go into Download mode i press Volume Down +Home + Power . Instead of going to download mode my phone goes to Factory Mode which has following options
Full Test
Item Test
Test Report
Version
Reboot
and for Recovery Mode I Click Volume Up + Home + Power . A boot Menu comes which has following Options
Recovery
Fastboot
Normal
When I click on Recovery my phone stucks on Red Triangle on Android Logo.
I also have applied some different techniques describes by some peoples to go from this stage. Like Pressing power+volume up button 6-10 times or power+volume down
even i checked it with home also. But still it is stucked there. It just made me mad...... ;
My Phone is rooted. Now I want install new ROM on phone. and Also Install CWM.
Any suggestions will be appreciated
Hi Guys,
anyone know if there is a reset button/battery pull simulation button on Redmi 3?, just wondering what to do if on the worst day i need to do some kind of battery pull when the OS crashes/bootloop.
Power on + Volume up. When screen on release both then press multiple times volume up button. Enter than you will know how to do!
Blue button / line = shutdown

Just Press "Download" to start flash with MiFlash or do something more with English by press the title next to "Download"
For crashes, press power button 10+ seconds and it reboots. (Works in every ARM Android device i've tested.)
EDIT: I lost all my data since the phone was encrypted, but I recovered it flashing in fastboot mode
My Redmi 3 pro is stuck in a bootloader after trying to root it for the first time.
power off doesn't do anything.
power and volume up doesn't do anything
power and volume down shows a Fastboot logo with a cartoon, but I don't know what to do here and if it is useful.
After 1-2 minutes in fastboot logo it starts again in bootloop.
I think soon the battery will drain and the phone switch off
I really don't know what to do

Yeah, thank you.
I eventually managed to force shut down the device holding power and volum up, down the three togheter for long time.
Then I flashed Miu again and rooted.
Now I can't manage to encrypt, so still not satisfied
Hi guys, today i download the last one plus 3 Oxygen OS version and installed on my phone, after the installation the phones starts the reboot process and it got stucked on the fastboot mode, if a press the power button it goes to the fastboot mode, if i press volume up + power goes to the same mode and exactly the same with volume down + power, what can i do to fix this or even better, is it fixable? I don´t want to change phones again
Recently, I updated my Realme C2 from Colour OS to Realme UI. After the update, I am unable to access Fastboot. Powering on the phone with the volume down button freezes the phone while it shows "=> FASTBOOT MODE" at the bottom. The only way to reboot the phone is to hold power+volume up. Let me be clear, the phone does boot into Realme UI when powering on normally.
Anyone?
Never mind. It mysteriously started working
