Putting the android phone into the recovery mode, when it is not working properly, is an easy troubleshooting trick. Unfortunately, some users encountered “No command error in recovery mode” in Android phones, not showing the options for instance, reset, reboot, install etc. Moreover, on updating Android phones, users have experienced the same issue. After an update gets finished, it says an error. When battery is taken out and turned it back, the phone does not fully turn on and “No Command” error appears.
It is recommended to enter recovery mode manually if this error appears on the screen. Here are listed few ways to bypass Android no command screen quickly.
- When no command error message is shown during app installing, software upgrading or resetting, it can be fixed manually. Unplug all the connected devices from the device and make sure it has at least 80% battery usage. Press “Power” key once, a menu will appear. Now press Volume Up and Down buttons to scroll options. Select “wipe data/factory reset” or “wipe cache partition” according to your needs.
Finally, tap 3 horizontal lines on the left repeatedly until it works. When the process completes, you can reboot phone by selecting “Reboot system now” and the no command error message will disappear.
