Root HBoot

[McLovlein13]

how do you get to HBoot? i did alpharev and got s-off (i think) but when i tried to install cwm at the end i pushed Y and left for a minute. when i came back the screen was gone and my phone was on HBoot. i rebooted and now idk how to get to clockwork...

Power down your phone. Hold down the volume down button and hold power button at the same time. That gets you to the hboot menu. Use the volume down key to navigate to "recovery" and hit the power button to select. That should take you to clockwork if it has been installed successfully

Goto Settings -> Power and make sure the Fast boot checkbox is not checked. That will prevent you from getting into HBOOT using the Volume Down/Power button combo.

Same thing happened to me and got the same helpful advice. You are not alone.

I did not know about the Fastbook checkbox lost an hour of my life because others don't know how to write up a decent walkthrough..

Thank you very much for this!
