Download this https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsImphY2twYWwuYW5kcm9pZHRlcm0iXQ..
and type thos command into the terminal emulator window, this should work

about the buttons...
I have the same problem
So how can you choose between the choices when youre in the recovery if your volume buttons is broken? I can manage to go to recovery but i cant do anything because of the broken volume buttons
I know this thread is old and im sorry im new here and im also a beginner in flashing roms

Try using the D-Pad.

Not at all.
I use "reboot manager", once installed you can press and hold the "search" buton and select reboot manager to get reboot options, reboot, recovery, fastboot.

He's not asking how to get to recovery, he needs a way to navigate it. Unfortunately, at this point there are no options for him.

Not directly.
I think you *should* be able to do it using fastboot flash to flash the individual file system images (*.img files, often inside a flashable *.zip), and then adb push to push remaining files to the appropriate directories.
I don't know 100% if this would work, but it might be something to try. Consult adb help and fastboot help for more information on the syntax of those commands.

Volume UP button not working what to do?

Hello geeks,
I am having Milestone India, running on custom Cynogenmod rom
My problem is volume UP button is not operating. This creates problem even to enter openrecovery.
Any solutions?
Or else can someone suggest how to increase incall volume without using volume button?
That will also solve my problem.
Thanks
Well, looks like you could use a NO button method of loading AOR.

Try to flash the 90.78 Bootloader on your MS.
With that you have to press X + Powerbutton to enter the Recoverymode...

You can use AudioManager, its on the market...
God! Guys you didn't answer his question!
The problem is that his Milestone is unable to enter the update menu after recovery mode.
I'm in the same situation, both of the volume keys don't work on my machine.
Hey dummy.
I did answer the question.
Nice first post. Have a nice day.
Next time, read the damn replies before making yourself look stupid again.
Thanks to zeppelinrox.
I tried it and worked.
So wonderful!
But after flashing Androidiani OpenRecovery 3.3
(I don't know if this is the cause),
it doesn't work anymore!
Everytime I reboot and press X,
it seems normal to enter recovery mode but
suddenly jump to the triangle screen.
Any comment?
Thanks.
You ran my script again and it no longer works?
Maybe you don't have vulnerable recovery patched
Thanks for prompt reply!
I now found the cause:
Androidani Openrecovery 3.3 doesn't work on my phone
I changed G.O.T 2.0 and now it works.
Maybe I need to download it again.
Yes you did not have VR patched in.
GOT has the VR patch built in.
Anyway finally I flashed TheFroyoMOD-v2.9.0 by using OpenRecovery_v1_46_for CM.
Gracias amigo por su ayuda!
Its resolved
The problem was Volume UP rocker button was not working, I got it repaired from Moto service station, Thanks a lot for all the wonderful options, and suggestions.
So kind of you!
Thanks again

Does CWM recovery use the home button? I thought it uses the power button for confirmation instead.

The easiest way is to find a touch recovery that can be flashed using odin. Otherwise ask around in the kernel threads and see if any one of them use the power button instead of the home button.
