How to Enable Download Mode on Samsung Tab Active – Open Download Mode

0:00
Welcome. In front of me is a Samsung Tab Active and today I will show you how you can boot this device
0:06
into download mode. To get started you will need to grab a cable and plug it into your computer
0:14
and have it ready. And on your device we're gonna swipe down for the notifications
0:20
extend the list and select the power button and choose power off. Now once the device turns off
0:28
you want to hold your volume up and volume down and then plug in the cable
0:40
As you can see this will boot us into this warning message. So a custom OS can cause
0:45
critical problems in a phone and basically a bunch of crap that they try to incentivize you
0:52
against installing any kind of custom OSes. Now they obviously omissed the more important part
1:00
part which is the middle finger which is that certain functions of the device will stop
1:06
functioning if you install a custom OS or unlock or even just unlock a bootloader
1:13
And those things would vary between cameras not working, your secure folders not being able to
1:21
function and some other things. So I believe you lose access to like your bank applications because
1:26
your OS becomes unsecure. It's a bunch of bullshit that basically prevents you from actually
1:32
utilizing the openness of Android operating system and you being able to install custom OSes because
1:39
Samsung doesn't want you to use anything that they don't have insight on. And that's their way to
1:44
kind of de-centivize that. Now that being said it is a massive breach of what I would consider
1:52
consumer rights but you know whatever. So if you still want to go through it as you can see we
1:58
just need to press volume up to continue. And we are now in the download mode which you can see
2:03
right here. And from here you just install your custom OSes and do all the unlocking and stuff
2:08
like that. But with that being said that video was just to show you how to access this mode
2:14
Additionally you can also get rid of the cable. Now below here it might not be too visible on
2:21
the camera because of the exposure but we do have the writing right here to hold volume down and
2:26
power button at the same time for more than seven seconds to initiate a reboot. Let me complete the
2:31
on. There we go it's a little bit better visible now. It is saying to hold the side button because
2:37
you know apparently power button ain't on the same side as the volume buttons but yet those
2:43
retain the same name. So anyway that went over we're gonna hold our volume down and power button
2:50
I refuse to call it anything else. And you want to hold it as long as it takes for the display to
2:55
turn off. There we go. Once it does so you can let go of the buttons and the device will automatically
3:03
turn back on on its own. And as you can see we are now back in Android
3:17
