    Help!

    Well it seems I'm an idiot. I ran DMupdater, got to the screen that told me to reboot in to recovery mode which I did, and now I'm stuck on recovery mode. I hold down the camera and volume up button and it does nothing. What do I do now?

    Just be patient. It sometimes takes a bit of holding for it to work. Two theories: One is that you need to do it act exactly the same time, and my own personal experience is that if you push volume up as opposed to just pushing the volume button it works faster.

    In either case keep them pressed and wait, at least 60 seconds. Sometimes the moment you let go it proceeds. Don't give up, it will work.

    Evidently I was unable to do "at the same time", or I think I may have been hitting the camera button first and then the volume up. I watched the video and it seems volume up then camera is key, because that worked instantly.

    Thanks guys....

    I'm confused. If you have the updater, the process should be automatic. Just click the icon and it'll take you to the ROM menu.
    Or did something change, or are you trying to do something else?

    Not true. You must start the recovery process manually. Other than that it is pretty much automatic until selection of utilities
