I couldn't find any information about how to get into download mode using any method other than using ADB and thougth to myself, "There has to be a key combination" so I had a play around and there is.
DOWNLOAD MODE:
1) Power down the camera.
2) Whilst holding down the Shutter Button press an hold the power button.
You will then see the following screen.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then just follow the on screen instructions.
In fact, you can do it using the zoom rocker too.
Now, I have been trying to find a combo to get into recovery, I have got it to flash up, but not stay, so it has to be in there, just a case of figuring it out.
UPDATE:
I've figured it out!
To get into RECOVERY MODE:
Make sure the camera is off first.
1) Press the shutter button HALF WAY IN and keep it held in that position.
2) Press the power button until you see it turn on then let it go, but keep the shutter button in the half way position.
You will then enter Recovery.
I keep doing this accidentally, so it wasn't hard for me to find . Must be something about the way I'm holding the camera sometimes when powering up.
I've figured out the combination to get into recovery, first post updated.

nice.. have been trying to figure this out myself,,,
Thanks for this! I'm trying to help someone recover from a bad stock update and we could find the info anywhere on how to get to recovery mode.
Ok guys. I tried all your suggestions and none work. I will tell you which one does. Download quickboot from play store and it allows you to tap on option to go into recovery. Works like a charm. none of this other nonsense.

You actually need to hold longer and it will enter the mode you want.

Hello ,
camera samsung galaxy EK-GC 100 asks for update and does botloop.
I was loading CF-Root and it did not help.
Flash -Odin and Z3X didn't help.
Can you remove the update from the system and make a flash? e.g. reverse enginering. Regards Michał

No, I only saw that screen once and the 3keys worked on it.
Sorry
meh... then it's not the same
that picture above, is the ultimately bricked screen.
and only the 3 button combo can save it, but if the phone have 3 button sequence disable, you are pretty much dead in the water.
Shut this ANDROID IS killing me with my s60v5 i8910 dont have any problems at all when flashing and i flashed arround 50 times

I'm pretty sure there is a way to fully restore the tablet. For example, to open it up, get the sd card and format it and I'm pretty sure there will be a stock image

(( no, that did'nt help..
Try holding both volume buttons down at the same time, then press and hold power button. See if that will put you into the OEM recovery screen that may have the option to do a factory reset or flash a ROM from an external SD. Keep playing around with combinations of this procedure, it may be your best bet.
I tried with holding volume down, volume plus then power, ...then only volume plus then power button, and every possible way of pressing thorugh.. now after these..now it seems to be fully dead... Anywa when i connect to pc.. it makes a sound on pc.. like connected.. but when i type adb shell on cmnt promt.. it says..
-Exes/system/bin/sh not found ..or something like.that.....
Now what should i do....,:-s

what you have to do is hold vol up with power button ( you'll see a androbot lyieng down there) then just leave the buttons and again hold vol up button and then gently tap on power button (you should see a recovery console).
Hi, I have a Galaxy S4 GT-I9500, Not rooted but custom recovery installed, and sometimes I get the SDCard Menu (UP Key - Normal Booting, Down Key - Download Mode) and sometimes it takes me to the CWM recovery mode and Now I was able to remove the cwm recovery mode completely but at random times there are weird black lines on my screen (just like when the tube of a TV bursts) and then my phone turns off. {I am adding the URL of the SDCARD MENU picture and the weird black lines Picture}

Hardware failure. It either the lcd or the gpu that's failing.
Hello everyone,
I need some help. I was using package disabler to disable some apps and I accidentally disabled Android System. This is now causing the phone not to boot pass the ATT logo screen. The phone is vibrating multiple times like it would normally do when starting up but it is not going pass the ATT logo. Any ideas how I can possibly fix this without resetting my phone? I am not rooted and am on the latest update from ATT.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.

The only thing i could suggest is to hold the power, up and home buttons until you see be blue lettering in the corner then let em all go, after that use the volume keys to scroll down to factory reset then press the power button to reset

Thanks for the suggestion....i have tried to get it to boot into safe mode but it isnt working....i am not sure if I am doing it wrong or just that the phone is so screwed up that its not going into it....thanks tho!
You may just have to face the fact that a factory reset is necessary. Not ideal I know, but short of getting safe mode to work it looks to be your only option...

Hi All,
I've got an old nexus 10 which I have forgotten the pattern to.
Originally it had 2 users set up (The Administrator (me) and a Music user for my uni house). Over the holidays I have forgotten the pattern used to sercure the admin account. As the tablet is only used for music now (Google Music) i'm not bothered about resetting it or losing its content etc but was unable to trigger a factory reset from the Music user account.
I've since tried forcing a reset from Android Device Manager but received an error as the Admin account wasn't active and multiple users had been created. To try and rectify this I deleted the Music user and Android DM still didn't work (I also now have a device which I can't use at all as the user without a password has been removed).
I've attempted putting it into recovery to reset it from there but receive a "No Command" error and attempts at using ADB have failed as it is classed as "Unauthorised".
Any ideas on how to reset/remove the pattern. I don't mind erasing all content or attempting to flash a new rom etc but just a tad stuck at the moment.
My google account is active on the device (I can locate it but haven't been able to trigger a ring or reset).
Regards
Since you do not mind losing all data I suggest reset via recovery.
Hold volume up and down and press the power button. Keep all three buttons pressed until you feel a vibration.
You should now boot to bootloader.
Press volume up until the top left of the screen says recovery mode. Press power button to enter recovery mode.
The tablet should now reboot to recovery mode.
Depending on what recovery you have installed, the reset process is different.
On stock recovery (that is id you have not changed) scroll down to factory reset using the volume buttons, select using the power button.
Hope this helps.

Once I'm in recovery I can easily select the wipe option, but I don't know how to move to the recovery from this error screen?
Was able to fix the "No Command" error by repeatidly pressing the power button and the volume down key.
This got me into recovery properly where I was able to reset the device successfully.
Regards
Lovely. ☺
