I don't necesarilly hope that I will need this procedure again soon... but I get the feeling I will need it someday and I had a hell of a time figuring this out this evening in a pinch.
Power up the phone by pressing the VOL UP + VOL DOWN KEY together + PWR KEY .
The device will enumerate with different BOOT OPTIONS
Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL and VOL UP Key to SELECT
Select Recovery
The device will start up with Motorola logo and power up to a little Android man logo with Exclamation mark
Press the VOL UP and VOL DOWN Key together at this screen
The device will display BLUE Text on a Black background .
Use the VOL DOWN Key to scroll DOWN and the PWR Key to SELECT the option desired .
In this case , press the VOL DOWN key till the Wipe data / factory reset is selected and press the PWR key to confirm the selection .
Use the VOL DOWN key again to select YES - delete all user data and press the PWR key to CONFIRM .
The device will then start performing the Factory Data Reset
Once the Formatting is complete , press the PWR key to confirm a REBOOT
The message rebooting is displayed on the phone.
The device will reboot and start the normal power up sequence .
Some app update seemed to slow down my handset, so I decided to reboot it. That was the last time I was able to get in to my handset :-(
Whatever though - being sync'd with Google really helped the recovery be a quick and easy process.
