Root HELP - Selecting in Recovery

[jurematthew]

Have rooted the phone with Clockwork - but in recovery am having issues with selecting, consistently, to use CWM - need to wipe battery stats as ROM acts like drainage.

Also, any new ROMs with not so much bloat?

Thanks,

Matthew

OK, clarify for me. When you say 'selecting, consistently, to use CWM' do you mean that you have to tap the menu button a couple of times in stock recovery to get into cwm? If so, this is kinda normal. Since the rom isn't booted, the sensitivity is set to default (low). Practice makes perfect. If you mean something else, let me know.
As for wiping bat stats, if you need to know where that is, it's in advanced. The trick there, is to have your phone completely charged, wipe the stats, let it burn until it dies on you and charge it back up completely before rebooting. The battery will burn quick, the first time. I'd recommend (if you don't use your phone for an alarm) burn it down right before you go to bed, and then recharge while you sleep.
New debloated roms? There are several. all on XDA... come over, and find one.

Guys,

I've moved this thread to the all-things-root sub-forum.

Thanks!
