Just around the river bend
Has this ever happened to anyone here? I turned off my phone because its battery was low and I didn't have the charger on me. When I get home and turn it back on, it went into recovery mode. Right now I'm having to reinstall 2.0 and all my data back onto the phone. I've never seen this before, hopefully it isn't a sign of hardware failure

That is really weird. There is the possibility that the home button and the power button were pressed for thirty seconds and that caused it to go into recovery mode. That would be a bizzar coincidence though.
 
yeah. I'm just hoping I don't have a prob on my hands. So far it seems to be acting alright. I've shut it off and on a few times since the restore w/ no probs.
The battery was around 10% charge before I shut it off. I wonder if it somehow drained itself to 0%, oh well. I'll post any updates.
