  1. I’ve downloaded the rom manager via apkmania and when I installed it there’s no “Flash ClockworkMod Recover” option there. Why is that?? Instead “Recovery Setup” is in there. What now???

  2. bricked my phone.. wat do. I rooted it before and installed a new rom, and thought I could just use clockwork to install a different rom. and now MIUI is frozen on my screen. holding the power+home+vol- doesn’t do anything
    can I recover it from my pc?
