I have two problems. I'll just deal with one for now. I did a root with super1click on my Vibrant 2.2, downloaded titanium backup,rom manager and flashed clockwork recovery but all I am getting is the purple text. I even installed the 3e recovery. How can I fix this? PLEASE HELP.
What rom ? Stock and what did you Flash in CWM ???
When you get to the purple text click on reinstall packages. You may have to do this twice. That should take you to the green recovery your looking for.

Stock froyo needs the modified 3e recovery.
It's in the development section.

So i used to have CWM 3 (orange). Everytime i wanted to get into it i had to go through the stock blue recovery and flash update.zip. I tried to flash a DL30 rom through CWM and my phone wouldnt boot. Not only would it not boot but i couldnt get past stock blue recovery, the update.zip failed. so i had to odin a stock build.
Now i have red CWM installed, and i dont have to go through blue recovery to get to it. Am i safe to flash any ROM/kernel/theme now that i can get right into red CWM?
yes.
good day.

Hi everyone, I have Samsung Vibrant with Bionix-v 1.3.1 in it and I successfully rooted and flashed my phone. My friend asked me to do the same with her phone. I was able to root the phone with clockwork but when I include the custom ROM in the internal SD, ROM manager could not recognize the custom ROM zip file. Every time I do the recovery mode, I always go back to the choices where there's "reinstall packages" (blue letters), instead of the green letters. I also did the ODIN flash to start from scratch but I'm still having the same problem. Thanks in advance.
You flashed CWM via RM? If so then you should make sure that it's not on froyo because the 3e recovery won't let you go to CWM..Flash to stock and then reinstall packages. I apologize if I misunderstood your post..
yesterday iwasaperson was extremely helpful to me. Thanks. I took my fascinate back to stock 2.1 and allowed it to update to 2.2. I then rooted my phone by flashing CWM recovery using ODIN. (red version) I had installed two files to root of drive one update.zip and the other for rooting the phone Su-----.zip. I ran them using the red version and restarted the phone. The phone is now rooted but I can't get back to CWM recovery.
I tried the following: I have ROM manager and flashed CWM but it wom't take. If I try to go into recovery I get the stock Samsung blue menu. I am thinking I need a different (CWM recovery comptabile) kernel or mod to get this to work.
Can someone help?
Reflash cwm, boot directly into recovery mode, and flash your custom kernel. The stock kernel tends to block access to cwm.

I keep thinking for sure I've got this fixed and each time so far I've been wrong. I'm on the tmobile vibrant. I can odin no problem and I'm currently 2.1 stock rooted. I want to go to cm7. I can't get to cwr though. I have tried flashing rom managers samsung galaxys vibrant recovey, both 2.x and 3.x vibrant (mtd) recovery through rom manager, and even the zip package in the noob root sticky. every time it goes to stock recovery and if I have the cm7 file named update.zip when I hit reinstall packages to get to cwr recovery it attempts to install the package and bootloops me. If I don't have anything labeled update.zip it will say file not found and I can't go any further. If I try to instal from rom manager it will just reboot normally without installing anything. Please help I can't live with this phone stock after I've seen the other side lol

Ok guys heres the deal....i recently got a samsung fascinate from my sister cause I couldnt mod my inc any more. ok so....i got the phone rooted. i have su perm. i downloaded rom manager and installed it. now heres my problem. i can preform a backup no problem, but when i go to restore that backup it boots into clockwordmod and begins and then get an error about erasing boot img. or something like that. can tell exactly if i get some help from this. also cant install custom roms like i can with my incredible. i know it can be done cause i see roms and all for this phone. can someone please please help me.
Thats because cwm3 will not perform nandroid restores on stock roms. You need to flash cwm 2.5.1.x red recovery. Its the best recovery imo for any bml(touchwiz) rom. Go over to my guide in general section and you cand find cwm 2.5 in section 2&5. Oh and ditch rom manager...manually install cwm via odin!
If you're coming from an incredible, also keep in mind you don't have to be rooted to flash roms either, you just have to have a custom recovery. There aren't really any modifications like rooting procedures, S-OFF, etc, required for rom flashing, just odin a recovery and flash your selected rom.
