*Entering Developer Mode
 +
:http://goo.gl/TSZxs
 +
"On this device, both the recovery button and the dev-switch have been virtualized.
 +
Our partners don't really like physical switches - they cost money, take up space on the motherboard, and require holes in the case.
 +
To invoke Recovery mode, you hold down the ESC and Refresh keys and poke the Power button.
 +
To enter Dev-mode you first invoke Recovery, and at the Recovery screen press Ctrl-D (there's no prompt - you have to know to do it).
 +
It will ask you to confirm, then reboot into dev-mode.
 +
Dev-mode works the same as always: It will show the scary boot screen and you need to press Ctrl-D or wait 30 seconds to continue booting.
 +
You'll still have to run "crossystem dev_boot_usb=1" and reboot once to boot from USB drives with Ctrl-U.
 +
To leave Dev-mode and go back to normal mode, just follow the instructions at the scary boot screen. It will prompt you to confirm.
 +
If you want to leave Dev-mode programmatically, you can run "crossystem disable_dev_request=1; reboot" from a root shell  .
 +
Th ere's no way to enter Dev-mode programmatically, and just seeing the Recovery screen isn't enough - 
 +
you have to use the three-finger salute which hard-resets the machine first.
 +
  That's to prevent a remote attacker from tricking your machine into dev-mode without your knowledge.
 +
An unrelated note: Holding just Refresh and poking the Power button hard-resets the machine without entering Recovery.
 +
  That's occasionally useful, but use it with care - it doesn't sync the disk or shut down politely,
 +
  so there's a nonzero chance of trashing the contents of your stateful partition."
