The menu options are hidden, I believe it was pressing vol down twice, then power and it would boot recovery. I'll find you a link to a newer bootloader also that actually has menus you can see

From houstonn's rootbox thread. I've been using it, there's also the new 4.3 bootloader posted in that thread, but I haven't flashed it so I can't comment on if its necessary or useful, etc.

This app will work.

[Q] Phone wont boot into system recovery any more?

Phone wont boot into system recovery any more by holding vol up and power on buttons, so I cant flash a rom. running 2.1. The other day did a hard reset, because it changed to chines in the settings section. Is that some kind of virus? Is back to English now. Is there another work round to install Rom's or fix this?

Does your volume up button work for anything else, in other words can you raise the volume when booted up?
You can use ROM Manager (free on market) to backup, restore, and to flash ROMs, and you can use Quick Boot (also free on market) to reboot directly into recovery. In other words, select Quick Boot, choose Recovery and it'll shut down your Eris and boot into Recovery.
If you decide to use ROM Manager and have questions, feel free to ask here and I'll do the best I can.

Just wanted to make sure that you are aware of the various ways to boot into recovery... Please pardon if this information is repetitious or not new to you.
Of course, there's volume-up and power like you've already tried. There's also volume-down plus power which will take you to the HBOOT screen from which you can select recovery with volume-up. Of course, if you have the Android SDK installed, you can use the "adb reboot recovery" command too.
XDA's bftb0 posted some information over on AF regarding why some phones won't boot into recovery with volume-up plus power:
http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/205697-notes-recovery-booting-1-5-vs-2-1-otas.html
Also, here's something I posted over on AF with a little more detail about booting into recovery:

Sounds like you don't have (or no longer have) a custom recovery installed.
Have you tried re-rooting?
I did the root with z4 root. is there a way to instalol a a custom recovery installed or put onr there for it to read?

Well, I don't how z4 root works, but I do know that jcase's 1-click root (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742228) will install Amon_RA's custom recovery.
There's various ways to get a custom recovery installed, but it depends on the current state and history of your phone.
You might want to first try the 1-click method mentioned above--its probably your easiest and quickest method to at least try.

Thank you scary alien !!!! This one worked ! ( but I do know that jcase's 1-click root (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742228) will install Amon_RA's custom recovery.) The vol up and power did not, but i installed the (hot reboot ) app and checked of boot in recovery mode and Upon using this hot reboot , it does now, but it would not work until I installed your fix that you suggested.

Does not boot into clockwork recovery

I have successfully rooted my HTC aria running android 2.2 with sense interface. Now i want to install custom ROMs. I have installed ROM manager and tried installing CM7 but i cannot boot into Clockwork recovery mode. I have tried installing clockwork several times but it doesn't work. I have checked out few other forums but none of them seem specific to my case. Please help!
Do yo phone have a fast boot feature if so uncheck it then reinstall Rom manager then try to reboot into recovery if this help hit the thanx button #)

Did you use Revolutionary on the device? Did it acknowledge that it was successful in flashing custom recovery to your device?
The proper way to reach CWM is to turn the device completely off, then hold down the volume down button and press the power button. From that screen you should select "Recovery" by using volume up/down buttons to move and power button to select. Don't use ROM Manager to install or get to Clockworkmod.
i do not have a fast boot option, thanks for replying though.
If you dont see fastboot.... Then you are not rooted. Try the process again.
You should be able to power off the phone, then hold the down volume button while powering on the phone.
Then you should see fastboot and recovery. If you don't see either, then the root process was unsuccessful.

I'm not trying to start anything here but, I don't see how this could have helped. Fastboot and HBOOT are always in place no matter if you're rooted or not.
DOUCHE!
I havent seen a stock hboot in nearly a year. But no one here asked him to boot into it, hence "how it helped" stop trolling MOD EDIT: REMOVED OFFENSIVE
I suggest that you re-read this thread. I told him how to get to HBOOT before you even posted, yet you attack me for giving him the run around?
sure did.
Not really... If I "attacked" you, then you would be in pain.
Surely you aren't taking this **** THAT seriously.

[Q] How to use clockword mod recovery?

Hi! Whenever i try to flash a ROM i go into the Android one, not clockword mod recovery. Can someone give me a tutorial/help me? Thanks!
I'm assuming you already used Odin to put CWM on your phone?
You need to press the volume up/down keys + the power button all at the same time to get it to come up.

Sorry if this causes some work, but I never used Odin to put CWM in. A guide would be really nice, if you would spare the time.

Is there a difference from doing it that way or just holding my power button down and selecting recovery?
No, but if you're stock I don't think you'll have that option. I suppose it depends on what you flashed to get CWM on your phone in the first place.
Thanks! I just got my phone and have unnamed so that option is there when i hold pwr button. Just wanted to make sure it was the same.

[Q] Help! I can't select any options in CWM after installing JB 4.1.2

This is my second ROM flashed. I could navigate through CWM in my previous ROM, CM 9.1 just fine. Help is very much appreciated. Thanks.

I'm not sure what to say.
1.I boot into recovery
2.List of options show up in CWM
3.Every time I tap the home button to access an option, for example, "install zip from SD card", it brings me back to the first option on the list.
Also. I can't get into the Google Play store. I'll tap on it and it instantly exits.

Also, my friend originally told me to root the phone and that he'd help me. He accidentally used the i9100 bootloader instead the i777 one for my phone. So the phone boots up as i9100, but when I go into "about phone" in settings, it says i777.

It is working. You don't need to use buttons. Just boot into recovery from advanced reboot menu. And that's it!

Flash this after you flash the rom. Then
Enable advanced reboot from developer options in settings. And press reboot in power menu, and select recovery.
That's it! No need for hardware buttons!
