Soak test underway - Droid Ultra General

Seems to be the same update that the moto X received with a few extras. Camera app is now updated in the Playstore and the wireless charging indicator is smaller and seems to work better.

Hold down power and up for a few seconds then let go off power and it'll bring up the menu. It can be finicky so if you happen to reboot try again. When you get to the menu it'll allow you to flash update file

after you select recovery and you get the exclamation its not picky just hit volume up by its self and then power button right after you hit volume up with volume up still pressed in and it will instantly go in every time . It just likes you to hit volume up key before power key

power + vol up just boots the phone.. vol down puts into fastboot mode, which has a recovery menu but as I said above, the recovery menu doesnt work right.

Trust me I don't have posts on the forum but I've done this since the original droid. Vol down and volume gets you to fastboot like you said. If you have stock recovery it gives you the android with ! which is what you want. At that screen you have to do what bluh5d posted. If that still isn't working then you'd have to rsd lite back to stock. The android ! IS what you want to see.

Stock Nexus 7 - Can't boot to recovery mode

Tried booting holding down the volume down button and power simultaneously and am able to select recovery mode but I just get a screen with the white Google name - recovery mode never starts (I have waited minutes) and I have to hold down the power button to get back to a normal startup. Also tried connecting to my PC via USB and booting holding down the power and the volume up and down buttons simultaneously. Then I get the belly-up Android and the Start selection but the volume keys don't change the selection and the power button does not cause a start - I have to power down by holding the power button in and restart normally. Any ideas?

You can use one of the root tool to reflash recovery mode if you don't know how to use ADB (which I don't really know.) You can flash CWM or TWKP or whatever it is. Then you should be able to do whatever you need to do. I have used the galaxy nexus tool kit v7.0.
Connect to pc
Shut down nexus 7
Hold volume down and power
At the next screen, press up until it says recovery mode
Press power
You then get the Android with red exclamation
Press power, hold it and then press volume up
This should give the recovery menu.

As I noted, I tried this and at the "At the next screen, press up until it says recovery mode" point, when I press the volume up button nothing happens, it stays with Start displayed (and pressing Power at that point has no effect - I have to press and hold Power for many seconds to force a shutdown).

You need to press volume up a few times, until you see Recovery.

Could you do anything more after rooting?
sikagoon7 said:
That is normal. If you press power and volume up you should get a recovery menu. It is pretty featureless so I assume you were expecting the likes of CWM or TWRP. These are custom recoveries that you need to download. To install them you need to unlock the bootloader and either manually flash them via fastboot or by using an application like goo manager or rommanager. Note that the application method requires root.

Manually load 4.1.2 --
http://www.androidcentral.com/how-manually-update-your-nexus-7-android-412
One update - I could get to recovery using adb (adb reboot recovery) but once there adb could no longer see the Nexus (adb devices showed null). Have to try some more when I get home from work tonight.
Manual update to 4.1.2 is original reason for doing this but now I'd like to understand why I can't get to recovery mode the "standard" way.

On the final set of workaround instructions, it says "4. Select Recovery using vol buttons and press power button" - I could not "Select Recovery" because at that point my Nexus would not respond to any button pushes.
Install latest nexus 7 bootloader from my dropbox.

Do NOT erase bootloader before you flash the new one. And after you have flashed the new one type; fastboot reboot bootloader and check the bootloader version to make sure you succeeded.

Though a series of misadventures I now have the saem problem as the OP of this thread where i can no longer get myself into recovery mode.
I had just doen a full backup and flashed a new version of the kernel when this occurred. Please don't tll me to use my volume keys to select Recovery. As the OP said, the keys no longer work. Theydid once but no longer. My N7 is stuck on the picture of Andy belly-up with Start shown but I cannot scroll up or down nor hit the power key to Start.
I download the file from two posts up but not sure what to do from there. FYI, I was fairly familiar with the ins and outs of Andoird, ADB, etc a year ago when developing apps but I've since retired. DO I need to get the downloaded file onto my device in order to use ADB to perform the fastboot commands above? Could someone please enumerate the steps for me to give me a jumpstart?
Edit: Whew! I got a tip to use Mskips' nexus 7 toolkit and got back into recovery and restored my backup and all is well so far. Knock...knock

I have the same--or at least a very similar--problem. I was trying to flash it back to the factory default with Nexus 7 toolkit. In the middle of the process my computer froze and I was forced to reboot. Now when I try to enter recovery I get a tiny "booting failed" in the upper left corner of the screen and nothing more. I can't see my N7 with my computer via USB or adb. I'm at a loss. Any suggestions?
Exacty what happens to me. Trying to manually upgrade to 4.2 without root. I have update.zip on my n7. Do I need usb to be plugged into pc? I tried it both ways... when usb was plugged in I got past the red explanation mark, with option to install from adb, but not from sd. If not connected, nothing past explanation mark.
Probably just wait for ota... don't want to mess anything up.

HTC my touch 4G stuck in boot loader.

I have a myTouch 4G that's stuck in the boot loader.
Yes I've tried the PD15IMG.zip and it works and updates, but after it reboots, it just goes back into the fast boot screen and I can't select anything. The volume and power buttons are unresponsive.
Even if I get into the actual boot loader I can't select anything, the volume buttons do not let me select.
Please help!

[Q] Lost Manual Recovery

Yes I lost manual recovery. I've tried many many times; with the power off I hold the volume up and the power button at the same time. As soon as I see the "little blue letters" on the left upper corner I let go. I've also tried volume up + home + power... However the cel vibrates again and does a normal system reboot.
I Odin it back to stock, factory reset...same deal.
I can reboot to recovery with Goomanager, but I can't understand why it won't manually.
Any help will be appreciated!
EDIT: Problem solved by scott14719. Here it is: As soon as you feel the phone vibrate, immediately let go of the power button but continue to hold the other buttons until the recovery boots, then let go of them.
You mentioned GooManager so I'm guessing TWRP? Hold the home and vol up buttons just a little bit longer (few seconds) before you let them go.
If nothing else works try to flash OUDHS (CWM). Make sure you read the thread and follow the directions. Of course, anything you do to your phone has risk and it is your responsibility.

You really need to wipe and start from scratch.
Odin stock rom, then boot to the rom, do complete device reset. Root, then load the recovery of your choice...15min procedure. Or keep trying things, and waste time. Can do this with my eyes closed as I have done this many times. Good luck.

I am telling you the boot partition is corupt. It has bs from both recoveries. Oh well. Might want to read up on odin and use the partition tools. Major sh$$ happening here. Just throwing ideas at you. I love these challenges. Wish I had the problem. Serious. I maybe wrong.
I'm wondering if there is something going on now. Normally 99.9% of these types of troubles are user error, but I've seen several people now (in the AT&T S4 forums) claiming they can not manually enter into recovery. Now I am assuming CWM hasn't been updated since the auto-loki version and I know it works correctly. So I am wondering (if there is a problem) if the problem might be with a change that was recently made to TWRP or maybe one of the new installation methods that have been developed to install CWM /TWRP? Even the people that are having the same trouble with CWM seem to have had TWRP installed first.
So, people that are having trouble please list the recovery you are using, the version, when it was flashed, and which method you used to flash it.
Or maybe it is still just all user error.

Have you tried a normal reset while holding volume and home. This is what I do since I am to lazy to take the extra steps and use Goo. Been working on extended power menu for odex'd rom but I am doing something wrong and can't get it to work.
Tapped from the Shear Galaxy Near You!
I used motochopper and running the latest version of twrp. I can boot just fine using goo manager and once I'm in I have no problem at all flashing files or making a back ups. So I believe it may be something wrong with twrp recovery.

When you try to manually boot into recovery are you holding the "power", "volume up", and 'home key' until you first feel the phone vibrate and then immediately release the "power" button but continue to hold the other button until the first splash screen and then let them go. I think a lot of people are holding the power button too long or the other buttons not long enough.

You sir are correct! I just tried it and it works. Kinda feel stupid now. Thank you so much!
seems so complicated... try just volume up.
For mine (ATT 1337, on OUDHS Recovery (cwm))
if your phone is on and while the screen is on, just hold power and select reboot. as soon as it vibrates, press and hold volume up (just volume up, nothing else, maybe wait till custom firmware padlock screen shows up), and wait for the blue text at the top left of the screen... let go vol up.
if for some reason u r frozen. press power (just keep holding) til it forces reboot, then after vibrate (or maybe padlock if its too soon), press n hold just the volume up.
I would restore via KIES instead of using ODIN,
It will reset everything, just like from factory.
I've had this happen to me several times while playing around with flashing. Basically (without fail in my experience), hold power+volume up+home as you'd normally do until you see the booting recovery message and let go. It will do one of two things - boot into recovery- or - restart and vibrate-. If it restarts and vibrates, immediately hold power+volume up+home until the booting recovery message pops up again and let go. It should then boot into recovery and you shouldn't have trouble in subsequent attempts.
It took me a while to figure this out and I actually thought I had permanently bricked my phone as the phone wouldn't boot and I couldn't get into recovery. Hope this helps.

Wait, a red light?
Are you on low battery?
Maybe it is either a low battery command, access denied to to too many attempts or incorrect combination.
Try doing the same to the up and down keys followed by the power.

Pressing the volume up and power key in the same time continuously?
And no I do not mean hold.

I also have the exact same issue. I never tried entering stock recovery before now and I tried to do it now, after updating OTA to 4.3 and rooting with wugfresh toolkit, 1.6.8. Regardless of how many times I have tried, it just reboots normally and can't access the stock recovery.

So you cannot access the recovery using the bootloader?, if so then it is probably corrupted.
I have the stock recovery image file here which you can flash via Fastboot.

I imagined the same. The toolkit itself, is giving you the option of reflashing the stock recovery, I think that I will try this at first. The weird thing is that the phone boots up normally, works as it should and is rooted successfully.
Actually there was no need to flash anything new. I finally made it to work. When in the "No Command" screen, you have to press the following:
1) Press only the power button first
2) While holding the power button, press the vol up button for a couple of seconds
3) Let go ONLY of the vol up button, while still pressing the power button.
Tested and working!
Just looked this up for a customer at my shop and works like a champ. Thank you

Excellent. Thanks for that. It was doing my head in.
The question is though will OTA updates still work? And the answer is yes. I flashed back to 4.2.2 and the 4.3 update came through OK. Happy days as I may well pass my N4 on soon and it needs to work 100% for a non tech wife.

"no command" in stock recovery (XT1642)

Hi,
after I made an offical OTA on my XT1642 (dual-sim, 2GB RAM, 16GB ROM, no root) to the latest official released firmware MPJ24.139-63 I have an issue when I entered into recovery mode. All I see there is the small bugdroid and the message "no command".
Tried it - as it is decribed for older motos - by pushing power and volume down, but nothing happend.
What do I have to do now?

When I try Method 1 there's always the little green bugdroid and the message "no command". Then pushing the volume up key absolutely takes no effect.
You have to press and hold the power button while pressing and releasing the volume up key. This procedure is done in the green android screen that you mentioned.

Sorry, but this still doesn't work for me. Still "no command" whether if only volume up is pushed or both keys (volume up and power).
I guess the recovery mode on my Moto is broken.

You have to press power button 5 sec and don't release it at 5 sec, press and release volume up, you must in recovery.
Thank you for this link, it really helped a lot.
