Don't take this the wrong way. Not trying to teach you to suck eggs, but just to check - you are booting while holding volume -, not volume +?

Sitting at the droid screen is what I would expect if you were using volume +

hit app quick boot

select menu boot in recovery mode

I had a similar problem when using ROM Manager. It seems no matter what version of Clockwork I installed, I couldn't boot into recovery. Here's what I did: Using Recovery Manager (here) I installed the Clockwork version from the sanfranciscoandroid.co.uk guide (http://tinyurl.com/clocknow). After that I could boot into recovery fine, either using Recovery Manger, QuickBoot, or vol-power. I did retry installing the latest version of Clockwork with Recovery Manager afterwards, but again I couldn't boot into recovery, so I reverted back again.

New versions of clockwork are for Gen2.

i had the same problem as well, i tryed to use an older version of recovery mode to install a newer version of cyanogen mod but it just semi-bricked my blade (if thats possible) and had to recover it in recovery mode... has anyone actually been able to install a new version of cyanogen mod? and if so, how?

EDIT: just realised my stupidity that i will have to upgrade to gen 2 for any more upgrades :D

Hi there,

to enter into recovery mode try hitting +vol/menu button/on button at the same time... it worked for me...

have fun
