Galaxy S Plus no recovery mode - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I've just upgraded my Galaxy S Plus to the official 2.3.6 Gingerbread. Everything seems ok, maybe a bit slow though, I'd like to do a master reset but I can't be able to access the Recovery mode by pressing Volume Up and Power, Nothing happens. It just starts up normally.
I can't find anything regarding this matter.
Hopefully someone can help me.
Thanks :cyclops:

Have you rooted the device?
You need to do this to get recovery - CWM

press volume up + power until you see samsung logo, wait a couple of seconds then release power and then volume up. you should see an android out of the box, press menu. you shuld be in recovery now. you don't need root to do this, and you can root your sgs+ from stock recovery (i have an sgs+)

it worked

if u guys just like to get the phone back to work, it would be the best to just flash a new ROM via ODIN. After that, the phone boots normally.
But I dont know if this is an option!
Hope u are still able to get the phone to downloadmode via 3-Button-Combo?!

Home button isn't working -> no 3 button combo
try using a jig to get it in download mode and flash a stock rom
In recovery mode, you also can boot system with power-button.

Missing CWM recovery??

After flashing kingdroid v3.0 i dont see CWM in my system... it went missing
How to reflash the whole v3.0 properly or how to install the recovery seperately?
can you reboot into CWM recovery?
Press and hold the Volume Up, Home and Power buttons simultaneously. This will reboot your device into recovery mode. What recovery do you see?
nothing
nope as if it never got installed with the rom itself
vol+ menu + power didnt see nothing... hmmm this is so weird everything else works fine with root access ???

Power your phone off, push and hold volume down, then hold power button as well and hold it for a few seconds. Then you ll reboot to recovery or simply boot the phone, hold the power button, choose reboot, in the next menu choose boot recovery and done.

doesnt work.
simple use SFT.
there is PBR (iirc, pseudo-boot recovery, button combo to enter recovery, cmiiw) on cm10. I think cm10.1 also has it.
turn on the phone, focus on led button, when it start blink for the first time press volume down + power button. You should press it at the right time to make it work. Tried it couples of time.
thank you, it works!

Can't boot to recovery because of hardware control mode

Hello all, a friend of mine is having some trouble getting into recovery, holding the key combos then letting go of power and then pressing it again, blah blah blah but it always boots into hardware control mode with no options to boot into recovery, we've tried several key combos with varying speed and no matter what we do it goes into that mode. It seems that other people have had this problem.... the device is on stock 4.4 and is rooted and the freedom flex app with TWRP installed, booting into recovery from android works fine and recovery is booting properly from there, any help is greatly appreciated
thanks

All I have to do is hold down the power + volume down and it goes straight into recovery mode. Have you tried pressing and holding volume down+power until logo appears then press and hold again? The only other solution is using adb.

Press volume Down+power as long as you see the logo. Released both buttons and immediately press again..
If that's not working the after the logo press Volume Up or Volume up+volume down...

You can do it either by using hardware buttons https://www.verizon.com/support/knowledge-base-222931/ or using adb commands adb reboot recovery

Then use hardware buttons https://android.gadgethacks.com/how...s10-into-recovery-mode-download-mode-0194521/
That method doesn't work on my s10,it looks like Samsung killed the ability to boot into recovery using the button combination on android 11

It has to work, maybe you have to vary the timing, also you can try with tap on restart phone and keep pressing only volume up button till recovery appears.
if you upgraded to android 11 you HAVE to plug in via USB....not sure why they changed so much on android 11
I'm on A11 and the button method works fine for me... on the three S10+ phones I have used recently.
I asked this question on the community section in the Samsung members app and someone told me I needed to plug in the device into my charger and then press volume up and bixby and after pressing them while keeping them pressed I need to press the power button.and Keep all the 3 buttons pressed till I am in recovery,This has worked for me

You have no idea how grateful I am for your explanation. Everyone always says a bunch of different key combinations and timing and I ALWAYS have to google it and try many times untill I am able to reboot. But it was THIS SIMPLE ALL ALONG. Wow. This worked perfectly and only on my first try! Since there is no timing to worry about. and only one key to remember. I do normally have to have my cable connected to my PC. But now it is so simple! THANK YOU
