How to Enter Into Recovery Mode on Nexus 6!

enter, how to, nexus 6, recovery mode, stock, twrp

Check Out The Video Below!

Entering into recovery mode can be a little bit of a challenge with the Nexus 6 since both the power button and volume keys are located on the same side of the phone. This requires us to use both hands to complete this task, but it can easily be done after a single try!

Recovery mode is great since rooted Nexus 6 users can install custom ROMS, perform Nandroid Backups, wipe their device, and so much more! For people that are on stock recovery they still have a few options like a factory reset, installing flashable zips, and a few others.

Follow the guide below to learn how to enter into Recovery Mode on the Nexus 6!

1. Power off the Nexus 6 and make sure your phone is unplugged.

2. Press and hold the power button and volume down button at the same time until you see a green "Start" on the screen.

3. Press the volume down until you see "Recovery mode". Now press the power button.

4. You will now be entered into Recovery Mode! Now depending on if you're rooted and have TWRP or CWM Recovery installed you will see something a little bit different or if you're not rooted you will enter into stock recovery.

If you see a dead Android with his chest open like the picture below follow this guide.

If your running on Mac OSX 10.6-10.7 this MAY NOT work for you!

If you are going to send your Galaxy S3 back to your carrier/manufacture you FIRST need to reset flash/binary counter!

7. Download the correct stock zip file to your computer for your Galaxy S3 using the link below.

9. Go back to Heimdall Frontend and click on the "Flash" tab. Under the PIT section click on "Browse" and locate and select the PIT file you saved in step 5.

10. Click on "Add" and select "ABOOT". Then click on "Browse" and locate "aboot.mbn". It is the folder that was renamed and untarred. Then click "Add" and do the process again for the all files in the folder (watch the video above for detailed instructions).

recovery.img --- RECOVERY
rpm.mbn --- RPM

11. Once you have selected and located all 10 files, uncheck ("Resume use after "No Reboot"). Then click on "Start".

12. Skip this step if your didn't get "ERROR: Claim interface failed!". Open Terminal and copy and paste these commands individually into terminal (watch the video above for detailed instructions). Then repeat step 11.
