you might as well just ODIN to Stock, root, and then flash your rom again.

DO NOT install roms from ROM Manager! Just reboot into normal old clockwork mod recovery and install zip from there after wiping cache partition and dalvik cache.
when it stops there, refering to OP, hit the 2nd option to install update from sd card and it will shoot you into Clockwork IF you have clockwork installed. Mine does this all the time no matter how many roms I install or revert back to. Dunno why and never tried to fix it as it never gave me problems past this.

[SOLVED]Can't get into CW recovery or flash an official rom

Hi
I'm running whitealiens rooted nandroid stock rom but I've been trying since yesterday to get into recovery to flash a custom rom, Rom Manager it tells me it's flashed the latest recovery but when I try to boot into recovery it sits on the hero splash screen, so I thought I've just flash an stock rom from HTC using RUU and it says that there is less then 30% battery even though it's at 70%, or it says there's no USB connection.
I've tried reinstalling Rom Manager, reflashing a new recovery but still the same problem, anyone on got any ideas ?

Yes, flashed alternative recovery through CW then downloaded the latest CW from website, renamed it update.zip then booted into recovery and installed it

OK, ra´s recovery is better than CWM

Flashing a recovery over a recovery.

So i have already flashed the CWM recovery onto my Evo 3d, But i have changed my mind and now i want to flash the TWRP recovery. Now i was wondering could i just flash over the CWM recovery with the TWRP recovery or would i have to remove the CWM recovery first? If so how do i remove it. Any help would be very much appreciated.
I had CWM first, and just flashed TWRP right over it. No issues at all

Nope. It will just write the new recovery right over the old one. On my Evo 4G I never had to erase recovery before flashing a new one. I switched between CWM and Amon Ra a couple times. I believe if you did want to erase it though, it can be done in fastboot. 'fastboot erase recovery'. There should be no need for that though. I'm not sure if that command works for us, but it did with the Evo 4G
So like you guys said i flashed the recovery over CWM and it worked perfectly. I only have one more question though...Where is the backup option on TWRP?
EDIT: Nevermind i found it i didn't know what they ment by "Backup partions"
I am unable to do this? I get a 736 error no matter if I try it in MAGLDR113 or CWR recovery. same thing. This happened before and i don't remember how I got it to work.

no service after flashing clock work touch recovery

so i flashed the clock work mod touch recovery and now when i rebooted it theres no service on my phone and when i reboot into recovery it wont let me install any roms, any ideas?? i cant find anything on here, already looked...
Could be a bad download, why don't you try flashing TWRP recovery and see if that helps.
Are you saying that you can get into recovery but cannot flash anything?

yeah i can only get into recovery and it wont let me flash anything, and i cant download TWRP if i have no data or servive, i cant even you wifi....
You could download to PC and move to phone. You can always flash cwm again with Odin. I would use a fresh download of the cwm tar.

The TWRP here, (in this section) is a flashable zip I believe, and to the best of my knowledge, will work with GB/ICS/JB combined.
But please, dont take my word for it.
Go to the TWRP threads and read the OP's carefully, as they tell you the installation requirements for the recovery.....g

Yerp you are correct i just went to TWRP a few days ago, i used the the goo app, didn't think it would take because it didn't reboot on it's own, but i did put the zip on my phone to flash, as i rebooted i had TWRP recovery. Good stuff.

PLEASE REPLY Stuck in recovery!!!!

OK so Im on AOKP milestone 6 with the devil kernel and i went in to recovery to wipe cache and dalvik cache and when i pressed reboot system it goes back to recovery!!!! please help as I really don't want to reflash everything!!! Thanks.
I had this same problem until I flashed TWRP. When I rebooted, it instead loaded the OS, but it still had Devil Recovery. WTF?
Have you tried re-flashing the rom without wiping data?

Try flashing CWM recovery again using Heimdall or Odin. Once it boots into recovery, flash TWRP or another recovery of your choice, then reboot and hopefully you will see your boot animation. That's what I did to get AOKP build 40 to boot again (though strangely enough, it's stuck with Devil recovery even after flashing TWRP). Hope this helps you guys out. And be sure to make backups!

Again, how can i put twrp on my sd card if i'm stuck in recovery? Is there a link for an odin version of twrp
You should be able to mount your SD card in recovery anyway. If not, take it out and insert it into an adapter to plug into your computer. I don't know if there's an Odin version of TWRP, I flashed it in CWM recovery.
I would read droid styles guide first if you have not yet as it has all the answers you will need. You just need to read through it and following the directions.

If you're using CWM, it's under Advanced or Mounts and Storage. Plug in the USB cable like you normally would.

I try to install twrp but it says installation aborted. I'm really starting to get sick of this phone and its stability issues.
You got the zip, right? It's in the Fascinate development section of the forums.
There is nothing wrong with the phone. I don't understand why you can't just Odin back to stock and start over. With the amount of time you have been stuck in recovery you could have fixed it by now. It you could follow droid styles guide to get out of the recovery loop without going back to stock. Something tells me you really just want a new phone...am I close???

Don't you belong in a different section?
Anyway, sorry for getting snippy, I was just really tired and frustrated. I did use the .zip from the forums.
If you've already tried Heimdall-flashing CWM again, and that didn't work, then I suggest you Odin back to stock as shelby suggested. If you haven't made a nandroid already, do so, then revert back to stock and start from scratch. You can try restoring your nandroid once you're no longer stuck in recovery.

I have a mez and I just got the sgs3 a little while ago. You need to check out section 8 or 9 I think of the guide. It tells you exactly how to get out of your situation.

There's also a topic about the "three-finger recovery boot loop" fix. You could try that.
