It's easy. Power off. (Make sure fast boot is off in the application settings.) Hold volume-down and power.

Wait I see S-off. Rooted? So this one doesn't have locked bootloader like the European Incredible S?

Phil, Great score, very jealous. Would love to come across that phone, if you ever want to get rid of it please let me know.


To others, that appears to be a SHIP s-off test phone, don't get excited about root yet (our first thunderbolt was one too). Release phone will certainly be s-on, and with "Signed" bootloaders.
