Not rebooting into CWM

CWM won't start when I reboot the phone, but if I pull the battery it works fine. Is something wrong here?

Do you reboot using CWM or the power button menu?
I get that error whenever I try to do it with CWM but with the power button menu or the 3 button way, it works like a charm.

by cwm do you mean rom manager? because yes it is quite hard to get into cwm with cwm?
op are you on stock? if you are running a custom kernel then cwm is part of it and rom manager wont work right just use the power menu or the 3 buttton fix. if on stock and rom manager is not going to cwm, its going into regular recovery and from there you can reinstall packages and it should boot you cwm.

He's following a guide so I think he'll be fine - The only thing is that he had lost his 3 button fix using Odin3 so he needed another way to get to recovery. I believe he got it working with abd and we should hear from him shortly

Imo he should stop what he is doing and use the odin package to flash the 3 button fix before going any farther then. Unless he already has a jig that is, then it doesn't really matter.

Oh wow.. nvm about my last reply.. I confused two different thread.
He should be fine getting in recovery with the power button menu. ROM Manager does tend to screw up when you try to access CWM recovery with it.

Yes, I just rooted my captivate and I installed rom manager, but when I try to reboot into CWM it just goes to the default manager.

Reinstall packages in regular recovery.

[SOLVED] OH NO! Did I mess up?!

I was trying to restore the stock froyo 2.2.2 on the phone. Restored it succesfully from Clockworkmod recovery but then when I reboot it gets stuck on the LG loading bar screen. HOLY CRAP! I need to restore what do I do

have you done the three wipes ...normally recommended by all....check it and try again to restore

This happened to me but relax, nothing to worrys about
First press VOLUME DOWN and then POWER button altogether. You will enter RECOVERY MODE. On this mode, wipe all data (data, cache, dalvik, etc). There are 3 wipe data menus, take them all.
After wipe data success, flash your ROM again (Install from ZIP or Install ZIP from SDCard). That's all
Good luck dude

And above all take some pill to calm you down, yoga exercises and so on...

Guys I'm not flashing a rom im recovering the stock V21B for Fido Canada ROM. And I know that you need to reflash roms and clear all data/etc. when the rom doesn't boot up. That's NOT my problem. I need to restore but for some reason it's not working and so far the only good advise was the second post which i will try now.

[Q] Cannot boot to CWR

OK, so I'm using ICS beta 4 for the Streak, and on ROM manager it says I have CWM 3.0.2. But when I try to boot into it, I either get stock recovery or fast boot. When I click on Software upgrade via update.pkg on SD card, on the stock recovery my screen turns blank and I have to hard reset.
Can someone help me get Clockwork Recovery please? Thanks!
PS. I used NVflash to flash ICS, don't know if that helps, but Im trying to provide sufficient information.

ICS B4 comes rooted with SuperUser7 and CWM 4.0.1.4 installed. Don't think that your supposed to use a ROM manager with it. Not sure how you have another CWM version unless you installed it yourself.
Reflash again and don't use the ROM manager app.

OK, well if it came with it, why can I not boot to it. I downloaded ROM manager but never used it. Never installed and other version of CWM, and if I did install another version, wouldn't I be able to see it? I can not boot to CWM.
Thanks for your suggestion, but reflashing is last option. Does anyone else think they know what's going on?

DO NOT USE ROM MANAGER!
First off, CWR isn't working very well right now, I have a new recovery image I've created that adds some functionality to recovery but its still a work in progress.
To get into recovery mode:
1) Power off device
2) Press Power and Volume+, hold
3) You will come into the Dell recovery menu
4) Use Volume (-) to get to "Install Package" and press Power to select
5) You are now in CWR

When I tried that it lagged a second and then booted normally. I'll post a video in a bit.

Did you use ROM MANAGER and flash a recovery? If you did, recovery is hosed and you will have to fastboot flash the recovery from the B4 directory.

I did use rom manager. And where would I find it in the directory?

Look in your ICS B4 download, you'll see "recovery.img" file.

Thank you both. I finally signed up when I had my first problem, and you guys hooked me up with speedy replies. Much appreciated.

Cwm recovery boot mode

How do i install cwm recovery (rom manager) so that i can boot in recovery mode? I installed flash recovery but had no changes.if i use the power button when phone is on, cwm is not in the list.
My phone is already rooted!

I'm not sure what you meen. You need root for rom manager to install cwm.
If you're rooted already just pick your model in rom manager and it will install cwm for you.

There is a fix for that. Look in general section.

For touch version through rom manager you need premium licence I think.
You can download their *.img from cwm site, rename it to recovery.img, put it on your external sd and flash it to recovery with "dd" command in terminal.
"su"
"dd if=/storage/extSdCard/recovery.img of=dev/block/mmcblk0p21"
Make sure you get the digits in the end right or else you might not be able to boot again.

I cant find the thread.if i search i get tons of threads.maybe you have a link?

[HOW-TO] Enable Three Button Combo [RECOVERY]
I also made a cwm flashable .zip with cwm-touch 6.0.2.7
Just flash it in cwm or twrp. Enjoy.

I downloaded from my phone.now i open it and it ask if i wanna open with 7zip or rom pre-install.i used rom pre-install.it ask boot and install.use that one? Or first extract?

reboot and install.

alright,i charge my phone battery first and then i go for it
what if i check; wipe data and cache on,what will happen?do u recommend?because if i go to battery,i see 2 android proces running

Yeah do that. Never flash with a bad battery
Nothing needs to be wiped for a recovery flash.
Wipe data will make a factory reset and wipe all your apps and user data, so dont.
You can wipe cache and dalvik cache without loosing anything. Cache rebuilds itself, but first boot takes a very long time..be patient.

thanks bro.
do you know why my battery shows 2 android processors running? (phone settings>battery) i get this list:
Internet
Android system
Android system
mediaserver
rom manager
mobile standby
so whats up with the 2 android systems?

bro.i installed. but how can i see if the instal succeed?how do i boot in recovery mode?
i dont think its working.
if i press the power button and you see the list with: shutdown,restart,airplaine mode....i dont see cwm

Thats an extended power menu. You won't find it in stock rom.
Reboot recovery from rom manager or use vol+/home/power combination.

alright,i will try that a other time.thanks again!!

End of support. Thread closed.
If you get stuck in recovery and can't boot into Android, you need to install the stock recovery to get Android to boot.

@Unjustified Dev for device and kernel source trees

Watch THIS VIDEO tutorial for a step by step visual guide for performing the instructions listed below (thanks @Tomsgt for the video).
Instructions:
1. Download ODIN on your computer.
2. Power off the device.
3. Restart in "Download Mode" by holding the "HOME" button, "Volume Down" and "Power" all at the same time (for about 5 seconds).
4. Hit the "Volume Up" to enter download mode.
5. Start the ODIN exe program. Un-check Auto Reboot. See notes about ODIN below.
6. Connect the device via USB to your computer. Verify the device shows as "Added" in the Message box. If it doesn't show then you need the Samsung USB drivers (just install KIES to get them). Also need to enable USB debugging.
7. Select "PDA" (or AP) then choose the recovery file you want to flash. (Unzip the file you downloaded so that you have a file named "recovery.tar.md5".)
8. Hit "START". Wait for Odin to finish (~10-15 seconds). The message area will display "RES OK" when finished.
9. Restart directly to recovery mode before rebooting into OS.(Hold POWER, Volume UP, and the HOME button all at the same time. When you see the Samsung Logo, let go of the POWER button, but keep holding the Volume UP and HOME until you see the recovery screen).
Notes about ODIN
--Make sure that "Re-Partition" is NOT checked.
--Auto Reboot can be un-checked if CWM doesn't flash correctly on your device. Some have reported that un-checking Auto Reboot fixes this issue. If you un-check Auto Reboot, you will need to reboot the device yourself (refer back to step 9).
After you get the custom recovery working, you can flash the latest SuperSu zip to get root.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Watch this video to learn about the navigation issues and Rainbow Mode: http://youtu.be/iCNdxlNzdBI
If the highlight doesn't move on the recovery menu, the selection actually does change. Go ahead and hit Power to select. If the menu goes blank, just hit Volume Up or Down to get it to reappear.
It appears that the menu navigation issue only happens when you use the button combination to boot into recovery. If you use the Quick Boot app or "adb reboot recovery", it seems to work properly. Only use the 3-button method to boot into recovery.

Flash at own risk!!!!

Click HERE to download the latest version.
I do not have a T110, so this recovery has not been tested by me. Please report if it works for you.
Same install instructions as above.
After installation, you may experience slow behavior in recovery if you use the button combination to boot into recovery. Using Quick Boot from the play store or any other software method to boot into recovery will solve this problem.
Internal card gets mounted as "/data/media/0".
Please report any issues here in this thread and be sure to include which recovery you are using.

If you already have root, you can extract the recovery.img from this zip and flash it without Odin by using Flashify from the Play Store.

Did you wipe anything while booted into recovery? I sounds like system or boot was wiped. You may need to flash the stock firmware in Odin.
