Motorola Photon 4G :: How To Boot Into Safe Mode
Sep 15, 2011
I've seen other Android devices that will boot into SAFE MODE (ie - no 3rd party apps running). Can this be done with Photon?
Which of the many bootloader options (Press Volume Down while powering on device) would work for this purpose?

I wanted to test booting into safe mode so I followed the directions here. I did get the "safe mode" in the lower left hand corner of the screen. But soon after that it restarted by itself and started back up in normal mode. I tried that 3 time and the same thing happened.

I've seen that on some other Xperia phones, you hold down the menu button as the phone boots, but the Ray doesn't have a hard menu button so.... I tried holding the home button, then the volume buttons, and neither worked. Is there a way to boot the Ray into safe mode?

Xperia Z5 won't load into safe mode. Tried connecting through the micro USB cable, while holding down the power off button, and up volume key, it vibrates 3 times, but does nothing.
I've tried 3 different methods, but I can't seem to get it to work.
I've not unlocked my phone, or done anything its a standard Z5 Compact, no bootloader unlocked, or custom kernal etc installed.

I got this Blackberry 9900 on Orange two weeks ago. I went to bed and it was fine- woke up and it was switched off. I figured the batt was dead but when tried to switch it on it would fully boot but show the home screen. I security wiped yesterday because of a problem with App world. Now it only works in safe mode.

an application is making my home screen unresponsive. i am able to receive calls and disconnect after talking through touch screen, but cant use my touchscreen for any other operation. also my battery is getting drained extemely quick.
can you guide me "HOW TO START MOTOROLA FIRE XT530 IN 'SAFE MODE'"??
I want to start in safe mode, uninstall the applications and then restart the phone so that it can used normally.
really dont want to do factory reset as all my important contacts and messages are there and dont want to lose them for such a small reason.

DansDroid spoke of starting in safe mode to determine if my problem was internal or third party software.
How do I start my device in "safe mode"? Heck before he mentioned it in his answer I didn't know that option even existed.

There seems to be an inconsistency in safe mode working on the Droid Bionic using the technique as described by Verizon. If any of you have the opportunity to test the safe mode procedure, please go here and report back as to whether safe mode works on your phone.

Any way to pull all my pics and videos and files etc., from my photon 4G without having it on the home screen. The reason being because my phone will not boot up onto the main screen and I have to do a factory reset. I have been taking out the battery and starting it back up for 2 days now and it still wont come back on. I have tons of videos and pics and notes that I need off my phone before I hard reset it so I can use my phone again...

What is everyone elses boot up time? Mine is 7 minutes 10 seconds, from moto screen to lock screen
It went up a lot after the last update but seems even longer now, is there anything I can do about this, 7 minutes seems excessive to me.

So i bought a motorola photon 4G from ebay 5 days ago and had it shipped here to New Zealand. I'm loving the phone but there are a few problems.
When i first switched on my phone (i got it today) it said contacting network, faor quite a while. I was patient and thought this was becuase it was the first time switching on this device. Then it said it couldn't activate the device (sprint). Fair point, because the network was not setup.
So after a while i was able to setup New Zealand's vodafone settings and got my 3G connection working and had data working too. I then swithced off the phone ad turned it back on again. This time it still could not connect to the network and now my settings don't work. Calls and txts work but my data doesn't... not anymore.
Also is there a way for me to get rid of sprint's activation process when i boot up the phone?

Car mode does not activate once the Photon 4G is positioned into the dock. Do I need to download an app or something?

As I was talking on my Razr v3 yesterday, I experienced what I thought was just another typical of many AT&T dropped calls. However, upon further inspection, I noticed my phone had gone into boot loader mode for no apparent reason. It's done this on a couple of occasions. Once after it was accidentally dropped and another when I turned it off (then back on) because I was on a plane trip. I've been able to get it back to normal by just power cycling it until it booted.This time no such luck and the screen says the battery is 'too low to program' so if I wanted to attempt to flash it which is something I have NEVER done, I couldn't even do it due to the low battery. This is the only Razr I have and I don't know anyone that still uses one so I don't have one available to put my battery in to charge.Is this the only way to charge the battery? Is it not possible to charge it with the power off?

I accidentally left my phone in my truck yesterday while taking the kids school clothes shopping for about an hour. When I returned, my phone was in "COOL DOWN MODE" (due to the extreme TX heat we are experiencing for the last couple of months). Once it cooled down it seemed to be returned to its once wonderful glory and working just fine.
I drove home (about 1.5 hour drive) and somewhere in that time frame the phone put itself in "SAFE MODE". I have since been unable to disable the "SAFE MODE". I have followed the suggested power off and reboot method and that has done nothing. I have powered off, removed battery and then powered on and that has also produced no positive results. I am looking for another option than FACTORY RESET.

I looked around and couldn't find a definitive answer to this question: what's the best Network Mode setting? I've seen some claims that setting to Automatic improves 3G performance (and a short test did seem to confirm that), whereas some people have recommended Any CDMA. I was on Automatic on the way to work today and experienced spotty 3G connectivity--causative or coincidence?

I have been using the Photon for months but can not seem to find the area that manages when the Photon goes into silent mode.I thought it was in the custom battery mode. I set it to Custom battery saver, set the Off-peak hours to start at 10pm and end at 5 am.My alarm goes off at 5:30 am but it never rings, even though I have it set in the alarm setting to do so.
I have noticed that the phone automatically changes to silent mode around 9pm and will not auto switch back until 8 or 9am. I get fustrated and set it to ring when I first use the phone in the morning.Is there some file that I need to edit to get my time window in? This is driving me a bit nuts, lol.

Everything has been working fine up until about thirty minutes ago I downloaded five column springboard from cydia. Now my phone won't exit safe mode no matter what i do. And so i figured I would just delete it. But it wont let me delete it, or anything.

My xperia neo was working fine all night then suddenly it acts weird like it doesnt open up apps, then qwerty keyboard always popping up. When it gallery it keeps on flashing many options. Then, i noticed that it's already in safe mode because of the safe mode message at the system tray. I wanted to get rid of safe mode so i tried updating software using pc companion, restarting it, removing the battery, and also i did a factory reset. Same thing i'm still in safe mode! Does it means that there is already something wrong with this mobile phone? How should i get out of safe mode?

I am using Z3 Dual and yesterday I was with friends for a picninc and while using the video mode it was showing the message that the camera temperature is going high and will shut down automatically. My main concern is not that, I used the phone in water (maximum 30 -50 cm depth) for 2-3 times and after that my sim both card was not working ( was not showing the signal bars) and friends tried to call me and came switch off. Then I restarted the mobile then the sim card start working and the mobile was on Safe Mode. I tried to restart the mobile many times and still the problem exixts. Then I tried one option which I found in the web, i pressed the power buttern and when the vibration comes I pressed the vlume up button. I tried this option for severeal times, but the mobile is still in Safe Mode.
