Im pressing several different variations of Vol - + Power Maybe im doing it wrong?
Volume Down and Power button right? I feel Ignorant here this is the first android device i cant figure out how to get into recovery.

Thanks in advance.
Hold the Volume down key and then press and hold the Power key. Don't let go until you see the recovery screen.
I read to turn off your phone and press reset while holding power.
Hope this helps

Huh? Not even close.. If the OP wants to flash an update.zip, he needs to...
1. With device held horizantally, power button on top left, turn OFF the device.
2. Hold down the Volume - button (left side of the volume rocker)
3. Hold down the power button.
4. KEEP BOTH HELD DOWN until you see the Recovery text in the top left corner. This appears a second or so AFTER the Acer logo does.
5. Do not let go too soon or you won't enter recovery mode.

hi i want remove password nexus-one-google-1 please help
hav this hard reset?
find it:
1. With the phone off, hold the Volume Down button and press and release the Power button.
2. You'll boot into the menu you see above with the little skateboard guys. Select Clear Storage from the list by pressing the Volume Down button.
3. Press the Power button, and confirm by pressing Volume Up.
4. Sit back while your phone reboots in its virgin state.
Phone is super slow and the sound is messed up. I want to switch the phone back to original state with WM installed.
I cannot seem to get the phone back in tri color mode.
Power + Volume brings aMAGLDR V1.13
What am I doing wrong? Is there any other way to force the phone in tri color boot mode?
Thanks,
make sure phone is off then only press volume - button and then press power button.
it sounds like your waiting to long to hold the vol down and power button. you need to do that before the splash screen pops up, if the splash screen shows up its already to late. pull the battery out & then place it back in..hold power for just a split second and then press vol down. im not sure why but this seems to boot a little quicker for me doing it this way then holding power and vol down at the same time from the start.
Still no luck.
Remove the battery.
Press and hold "Vol down" key
Press Power for 2 sec.
Wait for 10 + sec. nothing happens.
Press and hold "Vol down" key
Press Power for 4 sec.
Wait for 10 + sec. nothing happens.
Press and hold "Vol down" key
Press Power for 8 sec.
Wait for 10 + sec. nothing happens.
Phone powers up.

Guy....just HOLD VolDown and press SHORT power button.
Are you sure your volume down button works?
It doesn't matter if you short press or long press the power button it works either way the main thing is the phone has to be completely off before first pressing and holding the volume down button and while it is still down press the power button and keep the volume down pressed until bootloader screen appears.
You can also try, with the phone off or on, press the volume down button and then press something into the reset button under the battery door quickly and keep holding the volume down button.
If none of these work let me know exactly what happens after you try these. Where does it go, does it start Android?

It looks like the problem is the volume button.
I let the phone boot normally.
I noticed if I press the volume up button then the animation for vluome come up on the screen but if I press the volume down button animation does not appear.
Therefore, when I hold the volume down and press reset button, phone boots normally. I guess I am out of luck?
I am not sure how to bypass this problem but there have been others with your same problem search the other general forums for volume down button broken or something like that and I am sure there is some way to remap your buttons

I don't think that you can remap it so it works on that early time on bootup.

Try to hold down both UP + DOWN vol and then press POWER. Keep on holding it until you see the TRI color screen. This is a hard reset method, hope this works.
Just curious what ROM you currently running on the phone?
when in magldr can you scroll down? if so then the volume down works. magldr wont let you charge the phone in an off state so if you can scroll down. shut off phone or pull battery and wait like 15 seconds, than hold down the volume button than plug the phone in and you should be in tri-color screen if not than you need a new phone. hope this helps a little.

turn your phone completely off: unplug it from the usb and hold down the power button for like 20sec. the phone should not be turning on or doing anything. then press and hold the power plus volume down. as soon as the lg logo pops up, let go of those 2 buttons and immediately press and hold power + volume down again. this should bring up an all white screen with black letters. now press the power button 3 times til you get to "factory resetting".

Thanx man it worked
Long press power button no longer works for us on the S5 to shutdown or reset the phone.
What to do if you're stuck in a bootloop and need to soft reset so you can get into recovery:
To get into recovery:
Long press power + volume down reboots the phone.
Wait for it to vibrate and immediately switch to volume up + keep holding power + home key.
Once you see 'Recovery Booting' (in dark blue, top left) release the keys.
To get into download mode:
Wait for it to vibrate and immediately press the home key + keep holding power + keep holding volume down.
Timing is a little critical but at least I don't have to pull the battery every time I get stuck testing something and want to get into recovery to fix it.
Ty sir, good to no.

Why is Sammy making it so hard for us to enjoy our phone?
Thank you for the 411 [emoji3]. I was wondering what was going on.

Thanks for this!
I actually just had this problem and had to phone a friend (switched to the S5 this weekend and ran into a boot loop problem while doing some of my final restorations... it's the reason they're last!).
Didn't do this exact thing as I had ended up pulling the battery out when the Power - Volume Up - Home combo hadn't been working for me. If it happens again, I know this is here!
my OP6T is bricked and I have to turn it off to repair it with the volume + - command.
How do I turn it off? There is a special combination of buttons?
Hold volume-up, volume-down, and power buttons simultaneously. After a few seconds, it should reboot. Immediately after rebooting, hold volume-down and power buttons to get to recovery. Select power off in recovery.

I already tried but when I press turn off it has put the recovery mode back and now it's bricked on the screen where there is the message that says the phone is bricked.
Thanks anyway.

I just went through this same thing last night with my OP6. Make sure the device is unplugged from the computer, or any other power sources. Select Power Off and immediately hold the volume + button for 5 seconds and while still holding volume + plug it into your PC.
It's okay I turn off and my phone is good now.
