I was running Liquid, booted into clockwork and installed MIUI. When I rebooted the phone it wouldn't go past the M logo. It shows up, then the phone restarts, and goes back to the M logo. Power up/down with the power button does nothing, and pressing power+x only brings me to the Android with an exclamation point. I tried to SBF, but when I plug my phone in, as the M logo comes up windows finds it, but then it continues to reboot and won't go past the M logo. I really just need to get to Clockwork and I can put a different ROM. Any suggestions?
If I remember correctly once you get to the android guy with the exclamation point you have to hit the search button and that will bring you recovery.
Either search button or volume up + volume down together, when you're on the exclamation point screen. You'll go into recovery mode and from there you can sbf.
with d2 g I can get to CWR
with phone off pressing camera button and plug in charger
Booting into Recovery
Power down the phone.
Slide out the keyboard.
Press and hold the X button on the physical keyboard.
Press the lock/power button.
Once you see a warning sign with an android robot appear, press the Search button on your physical keyboard if you're running 2.4.x firmware. For 4.5.x firmware, press Volume Up and Down buttons.
you could try
wipe cache and or wipe data
Bootloader
Boot the phone into SBF loader:
Power down the phone.
Slide the keyboard out.
Press and hold the up arrow (↑) key.
Press the lock/power button.
Once the SBF loader screen pops up, release the up arrow key.
these work for Droid2 g
Which MIUI are you flashing? I've flashed good and bad. I got good ones from rootzwiki and the most functional so far is 1.9.23
To get into Clockwork hit the down volume button when the blue light appears in the upper right-hand corner during the M logo. Select option 3, recovery, then latest recovery and you'll be in ClockworkMod.
As said above, wipe cache and data--I wipe davlik cache as well--then select zip to install.

Ive tried the volume down and volume and power but it wont work.... Any suggestions?
You are sure your phone is off and you:
Hold down the volume up and down with your left thumb and make sure there is a click feeling from both buttons and use your right hand to click on the power button?
I'm having the exact same problem. Have tried about 25 times to boot into recovery. Just does not work.
Pull the battery after every failed attempt took me about 2-3 tries. Before you do anything shut off phone pull battery then attempt to boot into recovery.
Yes, I'm doing that. The samsung screen comes up and if I release the buttons it does the normal boot up. If I keep holding the buttons the black screen with "vibrant" keeps coming on and off.
So far I discovered that it works perfectly if you hold the power button until after the Vibrant logo appears and then release the power button while still holding the both volume buttons. If you release the power button before the logo appears it will FAIL.
Only after the logo dissapears you can release the volume buttons.
In other words:
1-Press and hold both Volume buttons
2-Press and hold Power button
3-After Vibrant logo appears release Power button
4-Wait until Vibrant logo dissapears and then release Volume bottons
5-You should now be in recovery

Wow, I followed your directions step by step and still no luck! I wait till I the Vibrant logo to dissapear to release the volume buttons but it just boots up like normal. Thanks anyways! Is there another way of rooting my phone?
What I do as well is hold until the first logo dissapears and as soon as the second one appears release buttons. Then its in recovery.
Ive tried everything you all have said so far and I still cant get my phone into recovery mode. I was able to do it on my wife's vibrant but not on mine. Any suggestions?
Try getting quick boot from the market. It had an option to reboot into recovery. If your problem is just getting the button push right (i had real trouble with it at first) then this should work.

ROM: Stock
Recovery: Clockwork 2.5.0.4
If you are rooted then Clockwork Recovery Mod has the ability to boot into recovery mode. Or you can turn on usb debugging and use adb. Start>Run>cmd and use "adb reboot recovery"

ok so installed the stock froyo .sbf with rsd lite 5.0 and now it wont go past the att boot screen. please help. thank you
Press the down volume button while pressing the power button to turn on the phone. Once you see the Motorola symbol come up let go. You will see an exclamation point in a triangle and the android. Once you see that press the down volume button again. You are now in recovery. Do a wipe/factory reset. This should take care of your problem.

when i get to the android and the triangle, when i press down it doesnt go into recovery
nevermind i got into revovery
hello, i have tried to flash cyanogenmod, but i have forgotten to erase all data before installing.
now, if i start my motorola pro, i see the start screen. and nothing happens else.
i have tried to get into the recovery menü by pressing x, and power button. no chance. i wanted to make a hardware reset like described here
------------------------
Hardware hard reset method
1. Turn the Droid off. If it won’t turn off, take the battery out then place it back in.
2. Open the keyboard and press the X key while pressing and holding Power. The device will power on. Keep holding the buttons down until a yellow triangle appears on the screen.
3. Press the Camera and Volume Up buttons at the same time to get to the menu. (I had to press them several times to get it to work).
4. Use the direction pad to the right of the keyboard to select the Format option.
--------------------------
nothing happens. i can not get into the recovery menü. is there another way to erase all datas from the phone ?
sorry for my poor english.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
i have found it out
if you can not get into the recovery menü, press "R" + "M", and put in your wall charger.
wait a few seconds. you will see the "!" sign.
after that press "@"
you will go to recovery menü
I am just wondering if it is possible to boot into recovery from when the droid x is off. Not rebooting into recovery but just when you hold the power button can you boot into recovery. I am rooted and I flashed cyanogen mod 7 gb
Turn your phone off.
Hold down "Home" and press "Power" until the Motorola logo appears.
Release "Power" and continue to hold "Home" until an exclamation appears.
Release "Home" and press the "Search" button once.
Your phone will now enter recovery.
edit: with GB you have to hit both volume buttons instead of "Search". CM7 may be different however since it's a 2nd init rom.
i had rooted my device, wiped, install cm7 & used for 3 weeks. one day, i booted the phone in recovery & choose to adjust cpu frequency from 1000 to 1200(it was stated that kernel 2.3 is needed). As i was running Android 2.3.7, i proceed to save the 1200 setting n boot my device, but it just boots with the red MT logo n green LED lights up, will reboots & not pass the motorola red batwing logo. Any ways i can get hold of my data?
Is it that i have screwed up my kernel? i did not update my kernel b4, i just rooted, install Droid 2 Recovery Bootstrap v1.0.0.3, n cm7. is it considered im still on original kernel?
Have you tried to re enter recovery and re adjust your speed to 1000? Or maybe you can try to increase vsel values.
right now, my device only shows motorola logo with random blue n green led light up n gone. can pls tell me how to re-enter recovery? i can enter into the original recovery mode by pressing x n power but it only gives me option to wipe device. unlike the custom recovery menu that has many other options.

When the blue and green light shows, press 'Up' Voume button (or is it 'Down') and it will enter Boot menu, go into Recovery and do a full wipe.
Thread moved to General, please ask all your questions here
Cheers!
When you reboot, the motorola logo appears. After 5 or 6 seconds the logo blinks and then the blue led lights up. Press the volume down key when the blue led lights up to enter boot menu. Press the volume keys to highlight and the power key to choose. Be quick when pressing the volume down key because my phone does not enter boot menu unless i press the volume down key during the blue light, pressing the key when the other colors light up dont work.
