Question [Q] Help with reboot options

Did a whole lot of searching here and on Google, but cannot find any answer. Got my wife a TB to get her on unlimited 4g before the new plans switched. Ran through Revolutionary and loaded up Eternity latest nightly.

Strange things started with REV S-off. I had to manually reboot the phone into HBOOT for the process to finish through. Anytime the REV threw out a reboot command, the phone would shut off. I manually got into HBOOT and the process did finish. I had CWM and S-off.

Flashed Eternity and notice that the phone would not go straight to recovery or bootloader with the 4n1 reboot menu on the ROM or fastboot/adb commands. The phone would just shut off. I could go into HBOOT with Power + VOLDown, then into recovery.

Since the phone was getting bad battery life (60% drop in a matter of 3-4 hours), I switched to Gingeritis 3d. Still can't boot into recovery or bootloader directly.

I have also switch from CWM to 4Ext, but the issue stays the same. I am about to start over and RUU it back to stock rom and stock HBOOT, factory reset with stock and see if that fix it.

Just wanted to see if anyone else has seen this and may know of a quicker fix than RUU. Thanks.

I had to manually root and everything too because revolutionary wouldn't work doing it automatically. I don't have the issue you are having though. Try unrooting and using the new all in one tool.

Sorry, been flashing too many devices lately. I did use the all in one tool when I did the s-off.

Hmm I don't know then. On my dinc2 it was the same way. It always took you to the bootloader not matter what. It's annoying but it still worked fine.
