Have you tried booting to the samsung recovery, running the update.zip option and getting to CWR that way?

Have you tried a full Odin? You may have to do a complete push to get it to work.

I don't understand how you are not able to get into CWM recovery. It has nothing to do with FC's, and you don't need to get to the OS to get into recovery.

Thanks 8notime,
Dude, you Just saved my ass.
EDIT:
Internal phone storage
Available space
0.00B
WTF!
Found a fix! Just do Factory Reset will format the internal memory.

Try flashing the cf-root via Odin.
CHEERS
Ok it seems like clockwork is still there, but i cant get to it
When the phone tries to go to clockwork its picking up some "update.zip" file which it cant install and ends up at this blue 3e screen
I can delete the update.zip file but each reboot it comes back
what is causing it? how can i fix it?
Reflashed
Hi,

Maybe that will solve your Problem....

[Q] won't flash

I don't know what I'd doing wrong, I'm using the update.zip file in the noob guide to get clockwork recovery after im stock and then i try to install cyanongen mod and it boot loops and only attempts to flash for about a second. I wipe the data and cache every time. I also formatted both the phone and the sd card seeing if a file was an issue. What am I missing?

Hmmm... Try this. After you flash CM7 and it starts boot looping do a battery pull, and boot back into recovery. Now go and flash CM7 again but do not do anything else, just flash it again.
Tell me if this works for you.

You are a genius!!! I spent forever trying to figure it out! That worked, I still cant figure out why it ever happened in the first place. I've flashed a decent amount of times now and haven't had anything similar happen. I really appreciate the help!
It's no problem. Whenever I flash Miui (which is based off of Cyanogen) from stock 2.1 I get the same boot loop issue. Not exactly sure why it happens though.

[Q] HELP!!! flashed CWM to my 2.3.5 Fascinate, now i cant get out of recovery

used oden to flash CWM. now i cant boot into android, it just keeps kicking me into CWM recovery.
anyone see this? any suggestions? would a wipe fix it?
did you flash a rom if so which one?
no ROMs, simply just tried flashing CWM via Odin
may i ask why 2.3.5?
what were you trying to do?
i am still able to get into Download mode to flash files via Odin, so i dont think all is lost. but, still just stuck in recovery. when i try to reboot it just takes me right back into recovery. i may have flashed an incorrect version of CWM which could be the cause of this problem. if that was the case, any ideas as to how i can get back into a proper boot?

I was trying to flash CWM so i could flash a custom ROM. Had this phone forever and was just looking to try out some ROMs out there.
As long as you odin cwm none of your os is really touched.
try the cwm 4 fixed for cm7. http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...2&d=1311907538
Now when you reboot your device the stock kernel will over right the cwm.
also make sure you put the odin file in the PDA section.
So basically flash the new cwm and try booting into normal that should get you back where you started from. 100% stock.
that link didnt work. tried searching for the thread without any luck
for some reason it truncated the link with a '...' and it thinks that is part of the hyperlink
dl.dropbox.com/u/14764513/cwm4_fixed_for_cm7-ODIN.tar <- cwm 4 fixed for cm7
thanks.. so i flashed this via odin. same problem. i start the phone. the samsung logo comes up. it disappears for a second. then it comes back up and kicks me into recovery.
weird right? any suggestions
ok then what is your endgame?
Now before you said you flashed just the CWM, may i ask why...if you did not intend to flash a rom? were you going to flash a Kernel or obtain root?
Perhaps you should try this
Download this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1278838
It is a custom kernel.
Now Flash CWM with odin
Put battery back in [dont touch power button yet]
Hold down BOTH volume and Power all at once * Dont let go until you see Samsung Logo.
[should still be plugged into pc via usb]
You will boot into CWM
using the volume up and down-Scroll down to Mounts and storage [select it by hitting the power button]
Then scroll to Mout USB storage
~now you should be able to see your SDCard as storage on your PC, put the Kernel some where on your SD Card~
[back on your phone Then Select Unmount
Scroll to ****Go bacK***** [select]
Scroll to install zip from sd card [select]
Select choose zip from sdcard
Navigate to where you have the zip
Select it
Scroll down to Yes-Flash........
Let the phone do its thing!
Good luck!

This may sound dumb but
make sure you are NOT hitting "reboot recovery" and you ARE hitting "reboot system now"

[Q] Have I softbricked

Ok, I made a schoolboy error and think I have softbricked my phone.
I just got it this morning and have rooted it through ODIN. I was going to install a ROM but when in recovery I went and used the Superwipe app and then rebooted (don't ask) and it is now stuck on the Samsung logo screen. I can boot into recovery but of course no backup as its been wiped.
I am downloading a Stock Official and going to install through ODIN. I assume this is the right way to getting back to stock and starting again to unsoftbrick my SIII?
Its the first time I have ever arsed up. Its not nice lol

Yup, as long as you can get to download mode, you can use odin and flash back to stock.

I have the exact problem as you,but I couldn't flash the stock rom for my country..via Odin
Don't bother with superwipe, just wipe data/factory reset in cwm and of you really feel the need you can format system under mounts and storage in cwm.
Just make sure you have something to flash already on your phone before you do, and don't reboot after formatting system.
Flashing stock via Odin will fix your problem now.

Thanks. I dont usually format and have no idea why I thought it was a good idea to do it this time. I was going to mount internal storage through CWM and put the ROM on it but there was no option to mount it.
EDIT - All sorted. Thanks for the info
If you know how to use adb you could put the ROM on your sdcard through cwm.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Or if you're not comfortable with adb and got an external SD, put the external SD in your PC and transfer the cwm rom to that and flash it from external SD on your phone
if i helped-hit thanx

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?

I can't flash anything because i can't put anything on the sd card because i cant get out of recovery!

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.
