If you are using one of the ics roms and your phone hangs at shutdown (from either the adv power menu or the pulldown toggles), try using quickboot from the market.

Ti backup can also reboot without issue into recovery. im sure other root aps with a reboot option like rom manager or rom toolbox can do this as well.

Hi,
I am unable to install custom Rom using the Rom manager. Whenever I select a Rom from Rom manager it restarts and take me to the restart menu but I don't see any option to run/install Rom

try flashing without using rom manager. Download the rom you want to flash (either through rom manager, or by a direct link) and put it on your sdcard. Power off your phone, then power it back on while pressing down the volume at the same time. Wipe what you need to wipe, then flash zip from sdcard.
as a rule, I only really use rom manager to download roms (if that) - not to flash them.
I just did what you wrote and it worked thanks!

Just noticed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646108
It is a file manager for cwm recovery. Just going to test it a bit
[Edit] Works perfectly. Could come in handy.
amarullz has done some good work on cwm recovery.

I tried it yesterday. Works very well, it's gonna be a life changer for me, i'm allways forgetting to manage files before going to recovery ^^.
Normal touch mode doesn't work so good. Try the "alternative touch" config when asked

Yeah I found the normal mode wouldn't work very good but its fine on alternative

Its is a file browser you can use in clockwork mod recovery by using install zip > (aromafilemanager.zip)
Use alternate touch method when prompted as it seems to work better

Doesn't help, because I didn't install any of those recovery apps before I was locked out of my phone.. I don't have CWM.
Unless you can install a new recovery mode without unlocking your phone?
Is it possible to have a command in power menu to have reboot in CWM without flashing any roms? I sort of like the stock rom, it hasnt pushed me to install anything else for now but i am in need of a reboot to cwm, is it doable?
Are you talking about a 4 way reboot menu?

Download quickboot from the play store then create a short cut to recovery on your home screen, its not in power menu but i hope it helps

Is there a mod (without flashing a new rom) that can give me more options when I press my power button..
Things like reboot into recovery?
I'm stock, rooted, and kt kernel but would like to keep my stock rom for now.
Thanks!

Those things require some changes to framework I think. You can install quick boot from the play store and get the same thing though.
Quick Boot does need root access though.
EDIT: Sorry, reread your post and you mentioned you were already rooted. I am rooted using Quick Boot on stock rom and it works great.
Thanks guys! Good enough for now! Wonder if I can program the power button to run quick boot on press?

For some reason, I can no longer boot into recover when using the power/vol up buttons. Can I re flash a recovery to fix or use an app every time I want to get into recovery?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Yes, you can use apps like Goo Manager and ROM Manager for these functions. Also, Cyanogenmod 11 has a setting in Developer Options to allow reboot to recovery from the power menu.

As JHall8 stated, you can use ROM Manager for this. Or, Gravity Box has an advanced power menu option that will allow you to reboot into recovery as well. It works perfectly.
