Booting to bootloader?? - Moto X Q&A

What is the sequence of the buttons to hold so you can boot to the bootloader from a device that's off? Not to Fastboot.

Volume down + power button. You run fastboot commands from within the bootloader.

"AP Fastboot Mode" --IS-- the bootloader...

[Q] Totaly bricked?

@alray
i did search arround, but haven't found nothing similar with my problem..
i able to recover a phone if i cannot enter in fastboot or recovery. in bootloader it works but it freezing in the moment i push power button to choose fastboot or recovery. also it doesn't boot normal-> it's starting, showing the "htc powered by android" screen then goes off.
mention: in the bootloader is no "Active CMDline overflow" message.
only thing i'm interested if it's possible recover from this.

if you're S-Off and it doesn't work then you need to downgrade hboot first. if you are S-On and it doesn't work, then

what hboot are you on? 1.44?
unplug the cable,
force reboot,
select FASTBOOT,
when it shows FASTBOOT (in red),
plug the cable to your computer, and it should change to FASTBOOT USB
.
1.57,
it remains highlithed in blue. it freezes highlighted in blue.
there you got it. i recorded what happens, if you have patience 2-3 mins.
ignore the cracked screen, i disassambled the phone to disconnect the battery, in hope of something would work after.. and did not matter for me if that i damaged it, i have new full housing with touchscreen for it.

HTC one (m7) Unlocking Bootloader with broken volume buttons

I tried to unlock the bootloader on my HTC One [m7]. I've followed all the steps on htcdev.com. I managed to skip the manual (vol. down + power) way to get in to fastboot using adb.
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot oem get_identifier_token
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
However, I'm at step 10 (imgur.com/4mYYF5V.jpg) and I'm stuck. If my volume buttons are working, all I have to do is press vol. up and then select "Unlock bootloader".
Is there a way to get past this?
Thanks.

No. Your need the volume button to work. You have 2 options: fix the volume button or buy the Sunshine s-off to s-off and unlock.

Thanks for the response. I'll take a look at Sunshine.
Was hoping to find a workaround like maybe rebind the volume button (like bind vol. up to home button).
But this will probably do the trick.
Thanks :good:

How to enter Fastbooot with Bootloader unlocked?

After unlocking the Bootloader i always get a normal boot into the System after the Unlock Message appears. Even if i try to enter Fastboot with adb reboot fastboot.

You have to hold volume down button when booting.
Argh.......my fault. USB C was not connected. Case closed.

Read my first post. You don't have to hold the button if using adb.

Hold volume down and power buttons until you see fastboot mode
Sent from my payton_sprout using XDA Labs
Hello Friend!! holding the power button and volume less, it did not enter fastboot at all. However, I held the Power button, volume less and connected it via the cable on the PC, so I managed to enter fastboot mode, and hard reset it, the device came back to life. thank you for the answer.
