Cold Boot Device - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone know how we cold boot this bad boy?

Anyone?

What you are talking about we would call this boot into recovery I believe. It's likely throwing people a bit.
Usually on Samsung devices it would be power, volume up and home.

That's it! Thank you ?

Recovery - Turn on the tablet holing the power + volume up + home button
Download - Turn on the tablet holding the power + volume down + home button

What is download used for?
The "Cold Boot" on the Asus Transformers... Had recovery options but you can also hard clean the cache files. That couldn't be done by app or the device itself.

Download Mode

I am having no luck getting my device into download mode (I can't believe it).
If I hold volume up, menu, and power button, 'samsung' in white letters just keeps flashing slowly.
if i let go of holding them, then it brings me to an android recovery screen.
any advice please?
edit: solved ---- thought it was volume up i was supposed to hold, but is volume down

Yep... Vol Down + Home + Pwr for Download mode. BTW, it's the HOME (center) button... not the Menu key.

Pressing volume up + power doesn't reboot to recovery?

Hi,
I'm new to the GN2 so I guess it does things differently.
In the past I have always done VOLUME UP + POWER to boot into recovery and VOLUME DOWN + POWER to boot in download mode. But now when I do either of these, the phone does nothing.
Weird. Am I missing something?
Sorry, duh figured it out.
Have to push VOLUME UP + POWER + HOME BUTTON.
Will leave this here for anyone else as clueless as myself :silly:

1. Unplug phone - VERY important
2. power on phone, doesn't matter if it is boot looping or whatever
3. hold vol up and power EXACTLY 10 seconds
4. let go of both
5. hold vol down and power till boot loader comes up.
You have no charge because you are running an old ver of twrp, get 2.7.1.0

Share how I fixed my HTC M8 with the same problem.
Hi,
I just want to share how I fixed my HTC M8 with the same issue. The method is the same but a bit different. I found the solution from googling the below link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...ter-download-mode-t2853100/page2#post62490577
The essential method is to keep holding down the power button and don't let it go while pressing on the volume up button to reset. At the very moment before the phone resets and shows the HTC logo white screen, switch from pressing the volume up button to the volume down button while holding down the power button. Or you can count 10 seconds and switch before the screen resets.
I hope this helps other people with the same issue.

Thanks, the pwr + vol-up 10 seconds before the phone hard resets, them pwr + vol-down got me back into hboot and recovery and then out of a build.prop issue.
I have no idea why this is a thing: Getting into the boot loader is usually easy. I can't imagine why when the system doesn't boot normally that the standard procedure to enter hboot changes.
regardless of retarded engineering on qualcom or htc's part, thank you an0ther.

[Q] Can't get into recovery

I tried to flash a ROM and when it tried to reboot it was stuck at the logo screen. Before I flashed the ROM I did a backup with TWRP. Now I can't get into recovery mode but I can get into download mode. What or how can I fix this problem via Odin ?
This is a T800
USA area
Thanks in advance
Your need to boot into Download mode by simultaneously pressing and holding Power + Vol down + Home. After the tab has booted into Download mode, press Vol down for cancelling the download mode. Then you must be quick: before the boot screen appears, you need to press and hold Power + Vol up + Home to boot into recovery mide.
Best, maris

If you search Q&A Help and Troubleshooting this problem has been covered many times.
The problem is purely user error and timing.
From power off simply press POWER + VOL UP + HOME. Hold until recovery boots.
If you are stuck at boot screen then hold POWER + VOL DOWN + POWER. As soon as the screen goes blank change to volume up whilst still holding the other buttons.
Guaranteed to get you into recovery mode.

LG E980 - Optimus G Pro - How to enter TWRP Recovery with hardware buttons

Hello
I used QuickBoot to enter TWRP recovery and did a complete backup.
After this, I installed an Xposed SDK ZIP and now, my phone is stuck in my Blisspop custom ROM front page.
I have powered it off, then tried the following, BUT none of these worked.
1) Volume up button + Power On button - release Power button on LG logo - Volume up button pressed alone.
2) Volume up button + Power On button - pressed all the time
3) Volume up button + Power On + Home button - Pressed all the time
4) Volume down button + Power On button - pressed all the time. - THIS makes the screen go black after LG logo, so I am suspecting it doesn't boot into recovery? Then how did Quickboot help?
Can someone tell me exactly how to enter TWRP recovery again using hardware buttons? Please, this is urgent.
Fixed
Fixed using this procedure. Hope it helps someone else;
1) Press Volume Up button + Power On button for 7 seconds until you see the LG logo the first time.
2) Quickly release both buttons after you see the LG logo DISAPPEAR - i.e. black screen.
3) When the LG logo appears again, keep pressing the Volume Up button.
This is how you enter TWRP recovery.
