Grey screen showing FFBM mode. Cannot turn phone off, Goes off when battery dies. Can then turn it back on, it shows Doro Logo then reverts back to the FFMB mode. Have tried pressing volume down and power button together for over 8 secs ,,,,it vibrates and Doro logo reappears,,,,,only to be replaced by the FFMD mode message. Phone totally out of use. HELP!!

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out moreHi @ffbm+problem have you managed to get into recovery mode ?
"Sometimes Android phones get stuck in an endless loop (FFBM Mode) where it is not enough to restart the phone.
If your phone is switched off: Press and hold "Volume up" and the On / Off button until the phone starts in "Recovery mode". Press "Restart System Now".
If the phone is already on: The phone starts in "FFBM mode" all the time. Press and hold "Volume down" and the On / Off button. The phone will vibrate briefly and the display shows the Doro logo.
Continue holding down the buttons until the display turns black, then release the buttons immediately. The phone should now be switched off. Press and hold "Volume up" and the On / Off button until the phone starts in "Recovery mode".
Press "Restart System Now"."

Many thanks to 63johnw, your answerto my problem with ffbm mode has enabledme to restart my phone and it now is working! repair shops and engineer from sky failed to tell me how to get rid o the ffbm mode.....they all tried the 1st stage but not the second one.
