    Phone Not Rebooting into Recovery

    Hi All,

    I'm trying to install a custom ROM (Hexen) with ROM Manager. When I "Install ROM from SD Card" and locate the file, the phone just does a regular reboot instead of booting and installing the Hexen .zip file. Same thing happens when I "Reboot into Recovery" with ROM Manager.

    If this helps provide more background, the Quick Boot app allows me to reboot into recovery mode.

    Does anyone know how to allow ROM Manager to reboot while installing the custom ROM .zip, or how to install a .zip custom ROM without ROM Manager (is this doable through just recovery mode)?

    Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    You need to use D2 bootstrap. The only way to boot into recovery with ROM Manager is with a 2nd init ROM like CM7. You can thank Motorola and the locked bootloader for that.

    Ah thank you so much! Apologies for being pretty new to all this, but is it this one (Droid x (2.3.3) Gingerbread - Deodexed and Rooted)? I also found this one with no context (Droid 2 Recovery Bootstrap v1.0.0.3.apk). Or is the only option the $2.99 paid version of "Droid 2 Recovery Bootstrap" through the Android Market?

    Apparently when a DEVELOPER offers HIS OWN WORK for free, it still falles upder the WAREZ clause. My bad. Next time I will just stay over at xdadevelopers.com and let everyone else be ignorant of the truth.

    My apologies mr moderator sir...

    Really. Sorry.

    However, I didn't direct link to it. It will be educational to whoever looks hard enough to actually find it. Not exactly easy to find...
