But it takes time to figure all that out and two weeks in I haven't had a chance yet. But thanks for posting the method to do it by hand.
I found it tricky but doable if I turned my device so that volume button/bixby is on the bottom and the power button is on the top (landscape) and used my thumbs for the volume button/bixby and my right/left index finger to hold the power. ymmv
this was the easiest way for me to do it. the bixby button in the mix instead of home button does present a challenge, and it's awkward to be sure, but if the button were remapped to do this any accidental touches would reboot the phone into recovery, would it not? so it would need a confirmation dialog and that would be annoying too. all just thoughts.
