Need help on factory reset

I tried installing gingerbread keyboard and now x is stuck in force close of multitouch keyboard. Did full reset...nothing. How can I set it back to stock and start over. I recently had to get a new memory card so I have no back up file to restore from.

Wipe data/cache in recovery. If that doesn't work, then break out the ole sbf file.

where can i find that

Here's what user systemadminx posted on doing a factory reset in another thread....
Power off your phone. Then hold down the home button while pressing the power button. When the little android image shows up, press the search button. Then go down to wipe data/factory reset (move highlighted selection using volume up/down buttons) and select the factory reset option by pressing the camera button.

I'm not sure that that is the correct .SBF since it was posted in October.. If you are running Android system .320 or .320 then you want to use the full .320 sbf

You're right, here's a link for .320

Problem restore

Haii so im trying to install a rom and i cant do it. Everytime i choose to go to recovery mode it just stays in a black screen and the only way is to remove battery and restart. Thanks for your help

While phone is off..hold vol down + power. You will enter the bootloader..with the volume button highlight recovery, press power button. Also have you flashed a custom recovery?

already done it but im still at somesort of stock recovery what should i do next?

When you say stock recovery do you mean the bootloader, if so toggle the vol button until it says recovery then hit the power button, hopefully Twrp will boot, if not try one of the tools in the dev,s section to do a full stock recovery from your pc

How to force into recovery

I just got my Nexus yesterday I absolutely love it I can't figure out the button combination to force into clockwork recovery I can use the app to get into recovery what is there a button combination that will put me into recovery please help me thanks

You could just do adb reboot recovery when it's booted.. much simpler than random button combinations (I've never got those to work either).

You can do this by holding both volume up and volume down together when powering on. Then you use the volume rocker to select recovery option.

Actually it's just vol down + power.
I ended up in download mode last time I tried vol up + vol down + power

Thanks I thought those combinations brought you into fast boot.. I guess what your saying it's from there you can select recovery....

Boot into twrp

Hey guys
My question is how can I boot into recovery without factory reset.???
Because when.I do the button combo power and vol down to enter,
It shows push 3 times power to factory reset and enter then recovery....
I am afraid of pushing 3 tomes power to enter recovery because of the note factory reset....
Are there any other possibilities to enter recovery,.????

Twrp and rom manager apps both have a boot to recovery feature. There are other quick boot apps as well

Don't worry, it doesn't wipe anything or do an actual factory reset. I think TWRP did something to bypass that because you'll find that after the 2nd press of the power button, you go straight to recovery without losing anything. As another option, similar to a post above, you can also install this from the Play Store and it will give you an option to boot directly to recovery: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.siriusapplications.quickboot&hl=en
