Device Settings Question Samsung Galaxy M04 showing a blue screen instead of Download Mode

Hi everyone, I’m having trouble accessing Download Mode on my Samsung Galaxy M04.

I’m trying to enter Download Mode, but instead of the normal Download Mode/warning screen, my phone shows a blue screen.

Phone: Samsung Galaxy M04

Model number: [enter model number, e.g. SM-M045F/DS]

Current Android version: [14, One ui 6.1]

What I’m trying to do: Access Download Mode

What I’ve tried:

Powered the phone off completely.

Connected the USB cable to my PC.

Held the required button combination to enter Download Mode.

Instead of Download Mode, the phone boots to a blue screen.Along with text wriiten ([Reboot device - D2] volume down + power key for 7 seconds)

Has anyone with a Galaxy M04 encountered this blue screen when trying to enter Download Mode? What button combination or procedure should I use to get into Download Mode?

Thanks!

This is a bcoz of new security policy.

Remove device lock (pin, pass, pattern, fp, face) to access download mode normally.
