If you’re here, it’s probably because you’ve been in this situation: you were doing something on your phone, it restarted (by itself or because you suggested it) and when you turn it back on, you get a weird screen that just says “no command”. Your phone doesn’t respond, you can’t do anything and it always stays there, you lost an expensive paperweight and lost all your data?
In some cases we say yes, but you come to this article and we’ll tell you what’s going on. We will explain what “No command” means on Android, why it appears and how to solve it. Ready to get your cell phone back?
Why does the “No order” screen appear on Android and what does it mean?
In order not to make this article long, you should know that the “No command” screen is related to the recovery of your smartphone. As the message indicates, because it appears Recovery could not detect any commandsSo it throws the error and doesn’t let you do much else. So, no matter how hard you try to do something, you won’t succeed if you don’t get off that screen first.
“No order” message It usually appears when you are checking with your cell phone., or trying to manually install an update, ROM or downgrade. It is directly related to the “adb reboot recovery” command, which is the symbol that is always used in these processes. If booting to recovery fails (for any reason), the “No command” screen will appear.
And if you’re thinking, “But this app happened to me after I installed it,” we can assure you. Of course, it never happens, because Applications do not need permission to execute these types of commands Or mess with recovery. However, you may have experienced one of these conditions:
You were installing or updating a system application and the process failed.
The most serious situation is the last one and in this case you have to repair your mobile, but we do it again and again: “No command” screen appears after installing/updating very few times. But well, now you know why this recovery screen appeared on your Android, then it’s time to come up with the solution, right?
How to Exit “No Command” Screen on Android (Solution)
If the system is not completely damaged (recovery included), getting out of the “no command” screen is very simple: you have to restart the phone in recovery mode. On most smartphones, you should:
Turn off the phone completely by pressing the power button. Try each option until you get back into the system.
Sometimes you have to try several times, because the key combination on the + volume increase is complicated for some. However, sooner or later you will be able to enter the recovery without problems (if it is not damaged).
Now, a little explanation is missing and it is related to “most smartphones”. In some cases (such as Xiaomi) the button combination is changed and the power + volume does not increase. If this is your case, you can try these other combinations.
Power + Volume Down.Power + Volume Up + Volume Down.
With some you can skip the “no order” screen, so just try until you find the right combination.
