[Q] Cant get Vibrant into Clockwork recovery

I am a noob and cant get into clockwork recovery. First off I have updated to Official Froyo through Kies.

Yea, in the link in my previous post is where i got the idea from. After some more reading I found post that said there wasn't enough room in the system folder. It actually said to delete slacker and amazon mp3, but just deleting slacker worked for me. After that rerun the e3 recovery via computer as stated here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423). When phone restarts you may have to go to rom manager and click into reboot into recovery again (maybe twice) but then you should see the green clockwork recovery screen. Also don't forget to back up apps with titanium first
let me know it it works.
whats up ou8, i read the link you sent, but i was lost on how to run "script " am sorry am a bit of a noob on all this but am a quick learner and i been reading tons of these forums but they sometimes leave me lost cause they have alot of different ways to do these things. Do i have to download something to run Script ?
Im definatley new to this stuff also..since Thursday...but anyways...once you plug ur phone into pc, with debugging clicked, open the zip file on ur pc and follow the instructions. It will run automatically, it may not take the first time just follow the recommended option. That's what I did and it worked great. Good luck

[Q] Please help me

Hello,
I bought a dell streak from ebay yesterday running Streakdroid 1.61. Everything was working well when i received it, but I couldn't get access to market because the orignal owner's gmail account was linked to the device. I registered my gmail but it was still not giving me access. I decided to remove his account and the phone prompted that some apps were linked to it so i needed to factory reset.
Since then after flashing Streakdroid1.61 it showed unser clockworkmod recovery menu: E: CAN'T FIND MISC.
After searching I flashed Streakmod Recovery but no matter how many reflashes and reboots and resets phone gets into a continuous booting loop after getting to android logo screen. I feel like trying my hair out. Haven't been able touse my new phone and I have read and tried lots of solutions from here and modaco forum but no joy.
Please help me somebody.
Thanks
Why don't you start off with the QDL Tool and get to 2.2 v305, from there flash streakmod recovery, boot up, download 1.61 or what ever Rom you want. Then reboot and install from zip on SD card. that way you get it from scratch and not have to worry what the other user did to it.

[Q] Stuck on Tap & Tap logo Please help

Ok so I tried restoring my G-tablet to factory settings and I manage to do eevrything wrong I'm good I know... Anyways I followed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861950 that thread and did nvflash FULL restore, using bekit's original image. After all that when the Gtab boots up in just stays in the Tap n Tap logo trying to load. I tried Rcgabriel's solution and I dont know how to rename the partition 9 file name to make it clockworkmod. I'm sure its not hard I just cant seem to do it right. Any help will be appreciated thank you all.
This may be a stupid question but how long did you wait at the Tap N Tap screen? When I restored mine it stayed there for a good 5 minutes or longer before giving me the home screen. Maybe wait a bit longer. Or nvflash it again.
Well....if you have a MicroSD card you can try to load Clockwork from there, then repartition the card. That might get you back up and running. Best thread for that, I think, is this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
That should give you step by step instructions on how to install Clockwork from an external SD card.

Waited 10 minutes and nothing happened I'm starting to believe that I did the impossible and bricked this thing.
If you can boot to apx mode you're probably not bricked. I would reinstall clockwork and partition the sd card or would try to nvflash again.

I am having the same problem.
History: I have used a whole bunch of different ROMS without any problems. Normally CWM works wonders for me. I have even nvflashed a couple of times and have been able to return to stock without any problems.
Enter Yesterday; I was just looking around and saw that viewsonic had an OTA out on 4/14. And I think to myself, I have to check it out. So as a natural process, I nvflash just like all the other times I have done it. But ALAS, I am not enjoying the TAP-n-TAP screens. The tablet just powers itself off after a while. When I power again, it just gets to the tap-n-tap screens and just stops there.
What I have done so far.
1. nvflash like a million times.
2. FORMAT and nvflash
3. Tried CWM on the SD card. ( I watch CWM install but then when I try VOL+ and power on, It shows CWM installing again and again.)
PLEASE HELP.
I had this, here are the basics of what I did to resolve it:
1. nvflash (which you have done)
2. Install CWM from the SD card (remembering that you have to edit the file "command" to say SDCARD2: instead of SDCARD: )
3. Remove the SD card
4. Go into CWM
5. Repartition the SD card
6. Clear cache/clear data (although I do not think this is necessary)
7. I might have had to re run nvflash. I did it so many times that day that I can not remember if I did it on my final run.
::edited to make step 2 not end in a smiley
Did you try doing NVflash with the part9.img file renamed to CWmod image file. When you do this this will put CWmod in there for you and then you can clear the cache and data.

[Q] Need help!!! Bootiful Boot Loops

Thank you for your time.
I was attempting to install this "supercharger script" on my "Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi" and it failed. And now I am left with a tab that does boot loops very nicely. One thing I forgot to do after rooting my device was make a "nandroid" back up. (Which was very lame and which I regret now because I was all too excited about a rooted tab) I tried numerous attempts to get a rom file into my tab, the nvflash method too but none of them worked.
Anyhoo, I was wondering if there is a way to somehow access the tab's so called "SD card" memory to which I can transfer a backup ROM I have on my pc (or any rom) and flash it through the CWM.
Thanks in advance and thank you for your time again.

If you can get into download mode, you can just use Odin to flash a new ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1167250
The ASIAN ROM is the most recent (don't worry it defaults to English). Also, this will wipe your SDcard.

[Q] Stuck at Flashing CM10

I followed a post on here from malloneem - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037368 - but I ran into an issue. I have CM7 running just fine on NT (thanks by the way ) but I'm trying up "upgrade" to CM10. I can boot into recovery and then into TWRP but it hangs after selecting the acclaim.zip file and gapps file. It states "Flashing file 1 of 2 /sdcard/sgt7-10-20121124-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip" I let it run for 2 hours, but no luck.

The method you're using is rather old. Before you try anything else I will interrupt your possibly long strenuous process of flashing CM10.
Before you attempt anything else, restore your tablet. You might be mad at me for saying this, but it makes things easier using the newer methods for flashing ROMs. You can restore your tablet by writing this repart.img to an SD card and putting it in your nook. It will write stock BN ROM to your tablet. Use this:
http://raywaldo.com/2012/06/how-to-un-brick-a-nook-tablet-8gb-or-16gb/
A lot of people have problems with TWRP. I could never get it to stop freezing up. Assuming you want to internally flash CM10 I'll give you this link to follow:
http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/03/cm10-0-jelly-bean-for-nook-tablet-uploading/
If you are new to flashing ROMs there is a very simple way of using CM10 from an SD card. Just write it to your SD card and you're good! You can use a partitioning tool such as MiniTool to expand the different partitions of your SD card. Use this method if you want run from an SD card.
http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/cm10-0-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet/
If you run into any problems along the way, just ask!
I appreciate the reply. I was able to flash back to factory, but I'm a bit perplexed on the second link. I do want to run CM10 internally. I was able to grab the file, but the link isn't exactly noob friendly on a "how to". Could you point me in the right direction to get started on this?
Thanks

Try this out.
Mega simple super duper easy way where you don't have to set up any partitions at all:
1. Download one of the ready-made CM10 sd-card images on Iamafanof website. Doesn't matter which! These images contain Cyanoboot.
2. Burn this image
3. Put your CM10 and gApps on this or another sd card.
4. Boot into Cyanoboot by holdninh "n" during bootup. Choose "sd recovery"
5. Clear cache and dalvik
6. Choose your zips and flash them
Once CM10 is installed you'll have Cyanboboot and CWM installed internally so if you need to reflass you just boot into Cyanoboot by holding the "n" at bootup.

Takes a while for the initial boot to start. Just wait 2 or 3 minutes and it should boot.

It indeed takes 2-3 minutes but then it just flashes the Android home screen and goes back to the cyanogenmod boot splash screen.
I am guessing I should install another build perhaps?

Go to recovery and do a factory rest/total wipe, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache. Then install the ROM again. If it still doesn't work try a different ROM.

By "cyanogenmod boot splash" do you means "Cyanoboot splash" or "Cyanogenmod boot-animation"?
You need to say more on what you did to "flash the ROM" so that we can discern what you might have done wrong.
