Look at this index, how to unlock, root and install ROM.
Search and don't hurry.
I'm already rooted do I maybe need to unlock the boot loader?

Really? God damn it. If you'd bother to search you'd find the requirement of a custom recovery is a unlocked bootloader! Is it really that hard to figure it out?

Put on sdcard and flash it? It's just a recovery image. Should be some guides that tell you how to flash a recovery if you don't know how.

Can you give me some links on how to flash a recovery image
What exactly is this recovery image. I've never heard of it before. Is it like Clockwork and SPR?

Still same issues and my Recovery is CWM 6.0.0.8
Thx in advance
Cant use link but i think its important to see it so please be nice
What specific tab do you have?
Edit and what rom
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
I have P7310
Tested these jelly beans:
cm-10-20121111-UNOFFICIAL-p5wifi
cm-10-20121025-UNOFFICIAL-p5wifi
cm-10.1-20121222-UNOFFICIAL-p5wifi
and in everyone i got this issue right after first attempt to unlock from sleep mode (via lockscreen)
same AOSP_14-01-2013_Beta-14 P5wifi
Well your picture doesn't look good, can't do much on it can you? Does it only do it on the cm10 roms? I'm not sure what to tell you but I'd try fixing permissions in your recovery.
What recovery are you using and how did you flash it. Factory reset, wipes, etc
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Bassicaly i did all wipes then instaled rom then Gapps and then rebooted
Like i said my recovery is this Clockwork_Recovery_6.0.0.8_GT-P7310_alternate
And if you flash the stock rom it doesn't do it. You might try that to rule out hardware issues
Edit: found someone else who had a similar problem. There is an issue with the boot loader. If you odin the stock rom and then flash the cm rom. That fixed it. You'll of course, have to reinstall your recovery and root.

Just tried one stock rom and it says
Finding update
Opening
Installing
Inslalation aborted
// I got that its ok to moment when i push lock/unlock button . When i had it on Charger i saw the battery ok but after i pressed lock it goes scattered/distorded like i show u picture. I really dunno what this is but im going via backup back to my gingerbread *SADNESS*
Where did you get the stock rom? Go to sammobile.com for it. You have to register, but it's free you'll download a zip file. Use 7-zip to extract the .tar.md5 file from it. Use that in Odin, PDA.

Hello,
I just got my One today, and I've been trying to root it and stuff. I unlocked the bootloader successfully, then tried flashing the custom recoveries. For some reason only cwm (regular) worked; the other ones (cwm touch and TWRP) flashed successfully, but when I tried going into recovery, the phone would be on the "booting into recovery screen", then just turn off.
Anyways, I just continued with cwm regular, but it kept saying "can't mount /cache/recovery/command, log, last_log,..." basically lots of that stuff on the bottom. I ignored that. Then, I put superuser.zip into the SD card, but clockworkmod could not find the sd card stuff.
Finally, in CWM, I formattted /system, /sdcard, /external_sd, /data and /data/media. Then the phone would ONLY boot straight into the bootloader (even if I did NOT hold down), could not even open recovery. So I flashed the same cwm recovery again.
Now I can only go into bootloader and recovery. Sorry for the long post, and thanks for any help in advance.
I'm just guessing but I think it's because you formatted everything and never flashed a rom. So there's just nothing on your phone, it can only boot into the bootloader because everything else was formatted.

That sounds reasonable. Does anyone know how to "put" something on the phone? even just stock stuff, so I can boot?
Relock your bootloader then use an RUU. Then unlock and try again.

Adb push a rom onto the phone. Google adb if you don't know how to use it.

Also download a Rom you want and just click on sideload Rom, you may also have to click install HTC drivers first too.

The thread will eventually drift away. Next time, post in the Q&A forum. More importantly, don't rely on a toolkit to save you. Sometimes, they don't work. The actual fix to this problem is fairly trivial (and to poster above, doesn't necessarily involve ADB either). If were trying to simply push stock software back on, it's three (well, in your case two) fastboot commands:
fastboot flash boot <path-to-boot.img>
flash system <path-to-system.img>
After unzipping a factory .tar. It's worth learning how to do in case this happens again.

hi,,just try installing the recovery again..and clear cache...
then try getting into recovery..
(im guessing you have unlocked the bootloader to do all this..)
you can try nandroid restore with no root while quitting recovery.
or you can flash the maximus rom ...
im using the maximus rom...it works flawlessly ..thanks to maximus developer!!:good::good:
So this fix the infinite loop problem?
And other question now is how to unroot my phone

Hello everyone,
i want to install a custom Rom, unlocked the Bootloader and tried to install CWM by using LeBobo's Recovery Flasher v1.4. I get a success-message in the command prompt, but it seems that CWM isn't installed. When i reboot into Recovery i get a broken Android Symbol.
I have attached two Pictures, perhaps you know what to do now?!
Thank you very much!
Getting the broken Andriod symbol is normal.
You need to press Vol+ and Vol- together to get into the menu.
I have found that you need to press and release them both together about 4 times to get in. But I'm only on the stock recovery so CWM may be a little different.
Hope you find a way in!!
Regards
Hill-Climber
Ok, now i'm in... But not CWM. Android System Recovery <3e>... Seems that CWM hasn't been installed
I have also tried and failed with the Lebobo method.
I have not had this confirmed and cannot find the answer but suspect you have to unlock the bootloader before you can install CWM or any otehr custom recovery. Hopefully someone will answer this soon.
Is your bootloader unlocked?

I guess that you're not bootloader unlocked but if you are, you can try another tutorial at development thread.
