In the latest and 5th Nokia 3 hands-on video, we show you how to enter Recovery / Fastboot mode. Nokia 3 is a bit different from other Android Phones in this regard. While on most of other Android Phones, one has to press and hold volume down + power key to enter recovery mode / Fastboot mode, on Nokia 3 you have to press and hold volume up + power key.
You need to wait for little longer than on other Android Phones after holding volume up + power key and your Nokia 3 must be plugged in or it doesn’t work. Once there, you can use many options as can be seen in the image above and in the video. For booting into Fastboot mode you need to “Reboot to Bootloader”. You can use other options like deleting cache, updating from SD Card and much more.
