How exactly do I fix permissions with this? I looked in the settings and everything and I couldn't find it. Someone please point me in the right direction.

How can I reset the settings for this recovery? The brightness is all the way down and I cant navigate through the menu's. Its just a black screen. Can someone please help me with this I'm freaking out because I dont have a recovery. I'm using the new cm10, Could I just flash twrp and use that from now on? would that work with flashing cm10?
