To get a shell in the bootloader:
10
* Power off the phone
11
* Start sending some characters through the UART
12
* Press the volume down button and the power button to power up the phone
13
* Release the buttons when the phone has powered up
14
* Once you get the shell, you can stop sending characters through the UART | At some point the boot procedure switches to the modem UART, it's probably some linux driver doing that |

 To get the UART enabled at boot with the stock bootloader:
17 57 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* Power the phone off and remove the battery
18
* Put a battery in
19 62 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* Hold the select button
20 57 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* Plug the UART
21 70 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* Release the select button
22
To get the UART enabled at boot with the Replicant 6.0 kernel and the stock bootloader, see the "DHylands_SGS2_Console":https://wiki.mozilla.org/DHylands_SGS2_Console page on the mozilla wiki. | At some point the boot procedure switches to the modem UART, it's probably some linux driver doing that |

To increase verbosity during boot:
27
* Power off the phone and remove the battery
28
* Put a battery in
29
* Press the hold the volume-down button
30
* Plug the UART and wait for the first lines to be printed
31
* Release the volume-down button |/2. It gives a shell once Replicant 6 has booted |
