[International / GSM] Question on CWR

[droidfan1]

Say I brick my phone. I can't boot up without bootlooping. How do I get into clockworkmod recovery? (Since I can't use rom manager).

I'm assuming - fastboot by holding both volume rockers + power? Then go to options "recovery" and then that'll take me to clockworkmod recovery?

Yep, you got it...you'll have to power-down first, though before the simultaneious volume rockers and power press to put you into fastboot / bootloader mode.

I got a few boot loops last Friday testing the various root methods (that turned out to only work well for the GSM phones ). Had to do some battery pulls, etc., but fastboot mode was always there.

Even if you don't have a custom recovery flashed, you can always flash it or soft-boot into it from fastboot.

An unlocked bootloader is awesome, eh?

Cheers!

God I love the unlocked bootloader. I missed my OG Droid - for this exact reason.
