This brief tutorial is about, how to boot Samsung S10/S10 Plus/S10E into Download Mode and Recovery Mode. Samsung Galaxy phones come with two embedded diagnostic modes, which include Download Mode and Recovery Mode.
The Download Mode lets you flash official firmware via Odin(a proprietary software from Samsung), install custom recovery and even root your device whenever need arises.
