Help! - Cannot go into Recovery Mode. - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! I need help, I cannot go into recovery mode on my Zenfone 2 ZE551ML 64GB model. I have tried the obvious way i.e., Power Button + Volume Up at the same time, it does boot up doing so but don't go to the Bootloader from where I can go to the Recovery mode. I did gave my phone in servicing because in an accident I ended up breaking it's MIC and my bike :crying:. Anyways am I doing something wrong here. Please help.

Hahaha you did it in the wrong way...
first... you need to hold down power + volume up button..
release power button after your phone vibrates two times (but still hold volume up button)
once you see "ASUS" boot up, realese the volume up button...
after that you will see fastboot gui where you can see "NORMAL BOOT" click volume down until you see "REVOVERY MODE" then click power button..
after that your phone will reboot and you'll see sleeping robot and ERROR message, if you see that just click volume up button then power button (you need to do it fast) then release power button, keep trying until you enter the recovery mode (volume up, power button, realese power button)
hope this will help you

I think after unlocking bootloader and flashing custom recovery and kernel would make life so much simpler.

You'd think that, yes but as the expression goes, "you make plans and life happens"...
Besides, if everything went right Murphy would be out of a job... (if that is a bit cryptic it refers to Murphy's Law - "What can go wrong will go wrong", I like to add the amendment, "at the worst possible time"...)

It's a bit poetic I think...

Hi, is there any other solution to go into recovery with some app and no hardware buttons?

I use quick reboot but you need to be rooted. You may need to press power and up button if you get the droid with "error" underneath...

Press and Hold the Volume Down key and then Press and Hold the Power key until the white HBOOT screen comes up.

Yep - do it like above posting says: BUT, if it doesn't work,
remove battery and retry. Success.

Also, go into Settings -> Applications and make sure the the Fast Boot checkbox is NOT checked. That will prevent you from getting to the HBOOT screen using this method.
Yea it worked. And yes....my s is s-on couldn't hurt tryin lol

[Q]superwipe then restart, now bricked?

I am going to install a new rom, so i superwipe all the things, then when I should choose a new rom to install, I accidentially press the "reboot system". Sign,.....now the phone is bricked? I can't go into the bootloader by pressing the vol down and power.
Even I hold the power button for ten seconds, it just power off and the power on automatically and stay at the htc white screen.
what can i do?
THX.
As soon as it powers off hold vol down as it boots

when i hold power for a few seconds, the virtual buttons blinks for a while, then i immediately press the vol down button, but no use, just the same whilte screen.
No, hold power for 10 seconds to force a reboot. As soon as your phone powers down, press and hold vol down, keep holding and you should enter hboot. It might take a couple of attempts to get it right.

Spot on keep trying we have all been there don't give up you will eventually get into fastboot
How do people not know the basics?? This is simple stuff
Cos they don't read. Although I remember when I first got my desire a couple of years ago, and rooted it, I was crapping myself that I might be killing it, esp as revolutionary and cwm didn't work with the erase size of 40000 I had on mine, (too late, flashed it) oops.. But that didn't stop me reading and searching, all the info is out there people, what ever you do has most likely been done a million times before. (and fixed).

Only assume your phone is bricked if you can't turn it on, or the bootloader gives you a critical error

Well mine won't turn on, battery is dead, and when I'm able to enter bootloader to check battery voltage I'm not able to charge it beyond 3543 volts or something.
Sometimes the bootloader gives weird errore like memory addresses or denied or something.
What can I do then?
The notification led blinks red sometimes, it never stays permanent red. And the sd sometimes fails as well, when I manage to enter recovery (which is not really often)

I have the same issue and cannnot get into fastboot either. I think it has to do with the fastboot option which was enabled... Is there any way to get into fastboot? Or should i give up trying...?
Press and hold the power button. Once the screen goes off press AND HOLD the volume down button and it'll boot into HBOOT. Then press power once to get into FASTBOOT (or select recovery to go into CWM)

Hi, thanks for your reply. The problem actually is I cannot get into HBOOT. I've tried about 50 times, the only thing which displays is the brilliant HTC logo screen. I notice when I hold the powerbutton the softkeys are flashing 6 times before it goes black... When it goes black i'll press and HOLD the VOL DOWN key, but still no hboot

Keep pressing power button+volume down untill it gets into bootloader.
Don't let go at any point.
Just hold them pushed TOGETHER for as long as it takes. You WILL get into bootloader or else I'm afraid something is broken...

Press and hold volume down +power. When you see the LG logo quickly release and press and hold power+volume down. From here you will get a pop up asking if you want to factory reset your device. Use the volume keys to switch to yes and power key to press enter. This will get you to TWRP.

Hold power and volume up, when the screen goes black switch from volume up to down. Keep the power button pressed at that time

I'm gonna guess you still have 'fast boot' turned on in Settings-Power. This needs to be off to properly turn the phone off

Red Sign after flashing

Dear users,
after flashing twrp, they said go into recovery mode.
But if i do that i get a red warning sign.
Can someone help me?
To continue when that sign is up you need to hold volume up and the power button. Or hold power and press the volume up button.

after 1 min it started the download mode and then i went to bootloader tried recovery again but i get the same red sign.
I had to hit both of those at the same time a couple times to go into it. It should take you in pretty much right away.
