Hi, can anyone please point me to the correct method for booting in recovery? All the volume up/down+power key combinations do not work for me.
Thanks.
 
No root, obviously, otherwise there is a ton of apps for booting in recovery.
I understand that the equipment must be turned off.

1.connect usb cable to pc.

2.connect cable to s20 fe.
(wait for the battery percentage to appear.

3. press volume + and power at the same time (it will turn off after 2 seconds, keep pressing, until the s20 logo appears

4. done.

Hi guys, I have the exact same problem (no root, Android 13 update from 1st of March) and your solution doesn't work. It doesn't want to go into recovery or download mode whatever combinations I try. Do you have any advices?

if your team is business, it will not work.

There are variants that are blocked by companies.

If that's your case, you can't this way.

Several teams have already passed with that detail.

No, it is and it was a personnal one. Unless you mean blocked by mobile operator.
There are teams that your work gives you. (companies, corporations, etc.)

They send to ask for the equipment with Samsung, they block the access to recovery and download.

In my repair shop, Samsung equipment arrives with that block.

In your case, you say that it is not business, I don't know what causes your problem.

keep trying

I put the cable into the PC, halfway plug the cable into the phone while it's turned off. then I start holding volume up plus power for recovery and then push the cable all the way into the phone immediately after.

Found out why the recovery mode didn't want to turn on. The cable was just for charging :/ Plugged in another one and it worked like a charm. Thanks for all the help guys.
