I'm rooted with CWM installed but when I boot into recovery, I don't have any option to backup/restore. It's the light blue recovery menu and I'm booting by holding down the vol buttons while pressing power and then letting go of power when the boot screen logo appears.

[EDIT] Apparently something got hosed with the install of the CWM recovery kernel. Reinstall fixed it.

Are the clockwork recovery extra options listed on the list? Should have like advanced and backup/restore etc. if you don't have those options fROM the recovery menu then cwm recovery didn't flash correctly.

Fyi works on mine I have cwm, root and a backup from the recovery menu

Yeah I figured it out like 2 minutes before you posted that. And yeah none of those options were there, it was really odd. Simply figured maybe something didn't happen right with the kernel flash. Appreciate the response :)
