i succesfully installed cwm recovery when i go to recovery i noticed that there is no back selection on menu when i install gapps here is the problem

- choose zip from sdcard
- apply /sdcard/update.zip
- toggle signature verification

the missing one is go back or back like other cwm recovery

thanks if you reply

The 9042 has a physical back button. Thus no need for an option in the recovery itself. Therefore, not a bug.

While I shouldn't have to answer this because the back button is clearly marked on the tablet, holding the tablet normally the back button will be the one closest to the corner of the tablet.

volume- = down
volume+ = up
powerbutton =select

what i means that when i go to selection of cwm recovery example wiping battery stats after wiping it you cant go back to previous selection i just pressing power button for 60 sec to get out of recovery. insted of going back and select reboot device

You don't have to repeatedly say what you're trying to do on every post. I know what you're doing. Did you install the correct recovery since the 9042 has no pbysical back button, unlike the 9742?

There's always a possibility of bricking the tablet when doing work like this. The only thing which will save your bacon in case of bricking is that you have both a dump and a nandroid backup.

Could the 9042 use another coby 7042, 8042, etc (allwinner) recovery that has the back option?

I never seen a 9042 so can't say, if my memory is correct The hardware keys are different so might not work.
