GT-S7560M - Can't Boot to Recovery

[ForgottenSolstace]

I've been trying to help my friend root his Canadian fido GT-S7560M. We successfully flashed recovery for TWRP 2.7 and Clockworkmod 5, but holding the power button, the volume down key, and the home button, the phone does not boot to recovery.

We were able to boot to stock system recovery by holding both volume keys and the power button, but we were not sure why this recovery wasn't flashed from the operation in Odin, which displayed success in flashing recovery.

Is anyone able to comment on how to boot to recovery on the GT-S7560M, and if it's done differently than normal phones?

Have you tried Power + Vol up + home buttons?

Fido Ace II X here.

A similar thing happened to me. First I flashed TWRP, it would just die as it boots into recovery. Then I flashed CWM, then it booted once and then never again (only booted into the default Android recovery after). Then I tried flashing TWRP again and it worked perfectly.

Just keep flashing until it works. Don't worry about the counter, just use TriangleAway to reset it to 0 after you've flashed your ROM.
