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.

I have tried literally 100s of times but no matter what I do or how long I hold down both the volume down button and the power button I never get to the tri-coloured screen. Is there any reason I wouldn't be able to access it?
Are you holding down the volume down button and the power button at the same time? If so, only hold the volume down button and briefly touch the power button. What I mean by briefly is a quick press and continue holding down the volume button until you see the tri-colored screen. If that doesn't work, you may want to post your question here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377. You will get some excellent help there. Good luck!

Hold the Volume down key and then press and hold the Power key. Don't let go until you see the recovery screen.

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.
Yesterday I had a hard time trying to boot an L5 (612) to recovery; there are many instructions out there that I was never able to make work, like this one, for example:
Press and hold the Volume down key + Power key, after 2 seconds when the lights go on you have to press 2 seconds on the home button

So, the best instructions I found were on this thread:
turn your device off, then press volume"-" + home button + power button until it vibrates and shows LG logo then release only power button and keep pressing both of the others for about 8 seconds then release.

And the method I found out worked best after some trial and error (and lots of googling):
Power off
Press and hold (Volume down) + (Home) keep holding
Press and hold (Power) and release it (Power) after the phone vibrates.
Keep holding (Volume down) + (Home)
Let about 8 seconds pass and then release (Home). Keep holding (Volume down)
Keep holding (Volume down) until the phone enters recovery
For me, works every time.
I heard about another:
Hold VOL-, HOME and POWER
When it vibrates, hold only HOME
Hold it until recovery shows up
???
PROFIT!

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".

HELP
My phone's power button is already broken so I can't turn it on using the power button. I tried to by using the charger and hold volume DOWN and HOME button and it takes me to download mode.
But I don't know why I can't cancel it by pressing volume down nor continue by pressing volume up. All I can do is holding volume DOWN, and HOME button again but then it takes me to blue android screen says "no commmand", then recovery mode shows up. So now I'm stuck at the recovery mode.
Can you help me find the solution for this problem?
