Install /e/ on Gigaset GS290, Windows, using Easy Installer success second pass

Our GS290 install page tells us to reboot in bootloader with

adb reboot bootloader

“Fastboot mode” is not mentioned (my apologies @Hermann!)

However there is a request by @freechelmi for the Key combinations for Recovery and Fastboot

I have no GS290, please could either of you @SuzieQ or @Hermann confirm if this is right?

Recovery Mode from Phone off

  • Hold the Power button and the Volume Up key for a while.
  • Wait for the Boot Mode to appear.
  • There, Volume Up key to navigate
  • Volume Down button to select, open the Recovery Mode option.
  • Use the Volume keys to navigate inside the Recovery Mode and select by pressing the Power button.

Fastboot Mode from powered off

  • Hold the Power button and the Volume Up key for a while.
  • Wait for Boot Mode to appear.
  • Press the Volume Up key find Fastboot Mode
  • Select it with the Volume Down key.

Or is is helpful? / accurate? to say

Bootloader Mode from phone powered off

  • Hold the Power button and the Volume Up key for a while.
  • When Bootloader Mode appears you can follow on screen instructions to navigate to Recovey Mode or Fastboot Mode.

Does this persist after /e/ is installed?

Just so readers can become more familiar with the GS290, please could I ask for a screenshot of the “Boot Mode” screen? Thank you so much in advance. :smiley:
