Hello all,
Yesterday I have Installed ClockworkMod Recovery v.5.8.1.5, on samasung galaxy s2 and while chceking its options available i accidently clicked the rebot recovery option in advanced, it stated rebooting i suppose the numbers are going on so i shutdown the phone and when i restarted in recovery mode it is showing old recovery not the new CWM touch, i reinstalled it again itworks but whenever i am going in recovery mode i have to install CWM. Today i again done rebot recovery thinking it will solve the problem but it is showing numbers going on, please help me.
Thanks
Rom Manager

After installing CWM i have installed ROM Manager Premium v5.0.0.8
How did you actually install Recovery?

I would advise against using Rom Manager.Ive tried to boot into recovery from there on 2 phones and it freezes,whether I dont use it properly or it wipes out my cwm install I dont know,but it did.Then I had a hell of a job flashing stock>rerooting>getting my nand backup cos I needed custom recovery.
I was thinking it was when you use it to download a recovery option and it wipes out/overwrites the working one you had.
Exactly

Rom Manager doesn't behave well with the s2. It will give you the recovery you download through it but reverts back to your previous recovery when you next boot up.
I'd say stop using it now.

Rooted the phone, installed ROM Manger, installed CWM from RM, selected version for Samsung Galaxy 2 AT&T.
Backed up the ROM
Went back into CWM to do a manual check and now CWM does nothing. I can navigate through itand select tasks, but that just talkes me to a screen wth the tophat logo.
Remove battery and phone boots into CWM with the same problems.
This has just got to be in the FAQ.
ROM Manager is not compatible with the SII at this point.
If you can still get into download mode and/or recovery, you are fine.

It goes into recovery mode; I get the CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.3 menu
I can navigate in the menu and select any choice.
Nothing happens.
You can install the CWM recory with odin.
Thank you so much for uploading this update
I am sure you didn't try this update before posting here..Q&A...
my phone is bricked while flashing your CWM 7 (2.3.7).
if someone wants to stand behind next to me then [ FLASH IT ]..
Otherwise IGNORE this thread I repeat IGNORE this thread..
Huuummm.. not good..
I finally got CWM to respond and it rebooted the phone properly. ROM Manger has been removed.
That was an exciting couple of hours...
Rom manager is.compatible but you need to use a compatible kernel. Clockwork kernel for an example

Don't panic,follow the steps:
1-Root e recovery with cf-root
2-download rom ( zip.packages) If you see any error messages or the procedure stops, then the packet of cooked rom may be corrupted.
Re-download and re-install from the beginning..
3-If the first boot takes more than 20-30 minutes, manually restart the phone by removing the battery or by pressing and holding for 10 seconds the power button.
If the problem persists, perform a hard reset .
4-If the phone restarts all the time, back in recovery mode and re-install, also performing the hard reset.
5-If your phone will not boot up, go into download mode and try to install a firmware via odin, performing a hard reset.
i tried installing a stock rom then flashing over that i have installed a ics one and jb one...didn't work...the problem is not with the booting itself but with the flashing like i said every rom flashes in like 5 seconds...it tells me it;s done and everything went fine but when i reboot i can't get past the samsung logo before the boot animation, so practically the rom doesn't flash...i dont know why...odin works great....but i can't flash through CWM. I wanted to try TWRP recovery also but i can't seem to find one for the international version of SGS3...Please help:crying:
Flash via recovery requires CF Root ,
ROOT

Odin flash is much longer than 5 seconds and short flash is probably wrong file /faulty file .

i have flashed cf root after flashing stock roms both jb and ics and it didint work...i tried to flash like 7 different roms in ics both based on jellybean and ics...i wiped all everytime...

I really don't think the ROM caused your recovery to not work correctly. Have you tried a different recovery, likE https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsImNvbS5mcmFnZ2VsLnJlY292ZXJ5ZXhlY3V0ZXIiXQ..

Use a different/older recovery..if you are using touch version use the non-touch version of vice-versa..just flash the recovery tar file in Odin..
make sure phone is gt9300

There is some protection with some cwm that allow script only with ROM Manager
as you can see there is no error in the log, so i can't do nothing.
Now try to ADB Push a ROM to your phone.....
First of all im a noob so please bear with me, i have just bought my I9300 and i wanted it rooted like everyone else, i followed the steps, everything was sunshine and rainbows, the intallation was succesful and my device was rooted until i intalled rom manager and it intalled his own recovery and it is not working properly, now i want to get ride of that and intall one that works. PLEASE HELP, i dont want to brick my device.
When you installed rom manager it installed clockwork mod. (cwm)
You use this recovery instead from now on.
You can backup your rom or flash a new one or flash a modem or kernel..
There are loads of guides on this check one out if your not sure what to do..
Good luck

Yes I Can enter recovery mode. I think I installed a kernel which is not made for my phone and I bricked my phone?

1) Are you sure it is for GT-S5830i? But first, are you sure that your device is an Ace-i?
2) Which kernel is it? You need to know whether it is for stock-based ROMs or for CM7.2 ROMs.
3) Download mode is more important. Can you access it with volume down + home + power?

Since you can enter the Recovery Mode, just flash any custom rom. Make sure to do Wipe data/ factory reset, Wipe cache partitions, Mounts & Storage> Format /system and Advanced> Wipe dalvik cache from CWM before you flash a rom. That should solve it. If that doesn't work, then flash the stock rom back using odin from the Download Mode. Do post the result. Hope I Helped

Bootloop S5389i
Hi there, i recently tried to install a custom rom on my ace s5839i but got stuck on the 'Galaxy Ace GT-S5389i' splash screen. I then managed to get it into download mode and install the stock ROM using odin. the process completes on the computer but on the phone it says 'failed to mount /data' and gets stuck in a new bootloop now between the 'SAMSUNG' and Vodafone logo. is there anything i can do about this? thanks in advance

Sadly didn't work, it says that my phone didn't pass the compability test so what's now? When i look for it on google play it says "your device isn't compatible with this version" but it installed succefully on my device running originally 2.3.6 with generic kitkat rom in 4.4.2 is there any method to do it in odin at least? Or custom kernel would be better? Answers will be appreciated.
No way to change it, also the risk is extreme i don't wanna brick my device, even i installed a custom kernel from odin, it showed "PASS" and my phone restarted and appeared the samsung logo later it turned off and restarted again and later the screen kept in white and i did need to get back to the old kernel
Anyway flash the stock recovery it's impossible to do.

You know that without cwm recovery u can't flash custom roms & kernals.
Pleas clear that which recovery u want stock recovery or cwm recovery?
And why?
Then I can easily guide or help u.
Best regards.
I want to change stock recovery to cwm recovery. I want cwm permanently no temporal, i know the zip file it's temporal but i want it permanent! I don't know how my phone did install "Compact" kernel with stock recovery and not with cwm i've had to do it that way 'cause odin didn't work and my phone got bricked
Can i install cwm permanent on samsung galaxy young duos? (S6102B)
I'll be very grateful if somebody could explain me!
The reason why i want cwm permanent and why i want it it's because i don't want to enter in recovery and see always the limited stock recovery with just 4 options
