yeah on my rhod400 device it is up/down with the volume buttons, and ENTER on the keyboard to select. there is no other button that works as select, i have to open the phone and use the enter/return button. not an issue really though, just an inconvenience.

but i myself have been trying for a week now to get NAND working. i finally figured it all out, i can get all the steps to work perfectly,; i can even manually erase the phone through fastboot or task29 it in windows. i have done both multiple times, and flashed the nand images multiple times... and every time once it "successfully" completes the image install, i reboot the phone and it starts up LK, goes through what appears to be a linux boot process then immediately restarts the phone and it loops like that. i have to plug the phone into a usb port on my netbook so LK starts in fastboot mode just to get back into recovery.

im lost now. 4 hours before i had to wake up for work last night i put the phone into bootloader mode and flashed winmo back on it. worked fine today, actually i think formatting the phone a bunch of times helped because the phone was working speedy as hell, and it wasnt even overclocked.

btw, my device is security sim unlocked, with 2.32wu radio (another accomplishment i recently achieved! was very proud to turn my $50 used phone into a world phone!)

Its going to get less painfull after the next LK. I made it so its possible to update LK from LK itself using fastboot. This way you wont need to wipe your phone anymore to actually update LK. This will come in handy over time. But the first time will always be a painful NBH install.

Hey, good deal ... wondering if there is any chance to get CWM recovery working again?

...?

I've used CWM for months, works great. Better than the AOSP recovery IMHO, as the buttons actually work :p.

The update for LK on January 15th may have broken compatibility with CWM. The recovery image flashes fine as before, but when LK gets to the point where CWM should load, the phone just reboots.

I don't know what you mean by this, I have been using the new LK and CWM, no problems.

Have you tried it and ran into issues, or...?

This makes my brain hurt. It's not like the value of the device is going to skyrocket anytime soon, LOL.

arrrghhh! What am I doing wrong ... it just continues to reboot. Maybe the recovery image I am working off of is corrupt? Will download and try again.

Just for the record. Once I have LK and recovery flashed, with the phone sitting there and not plugged into anything, how do I get CWM to come up?

Hrm... not sure. I can re-try the whole thing tonight.

As for forcing recovery, I don't know other than 'fastboot boot cwm_recovery.img" - that's how I always get into recovery... that, or from Android - hold the power button, reboot to recovery.

IIRC if you hold the power button it'll force recovery... but again IIRC I could never get that to work. The other two methods always did.

:drunken:

... and all this time I was trying to get CWM to work without the fastboot command ...
