Hi guys,i'm new to this forum and i have a problem with ACE s5830,i installed the firmware 2.3.3 GINGERBREAD XXKPE EUROPE (i FROYO 2.2.1 ITALIAN),so good,the ACE works well and much more responsive,but i realized that no longer goes into recovery mode so i can not install zip packages,when i feel the sequence ACE the middle button+power turns on and goes into recovery,solutions? Thanks to those who can help me(sorry for my bad english).
There Is A Software Called Boot Control.. mind u its works as a widget so install in on ur phone memory and go to Widget -> Boot Control
search it in the market
Also Quick Boot application works for SGA...
these applications require root, because I do not have it, I just need to go through recovery to take root update zip?
Just press and hold home+power on until you see Samsung on the screen... it has to be accessible whatever you did with your phone...

Unfortunately I tried many times, does not work, but I do not understand why does the download and instead the recovery mode no, I did the flash as it was described here at XDA, I do not understand why, maybe the firmware XXKPE did this? Should I try to flash again, or better not? Or is there no way to make the root install other zip recovey?
Install VillainROM and you will have 2.3.3 with root, zipalign and deodex at the same time...

But besides the fact that this Rom installed, there is a way to unlock the recovery? (thanks to those who have tried to help in some way.)
Sorry guys you break the boxes the last time, have mercy, the recovery could be blocked because when I flashed the KPE was flagged DEBUG USB? And if I tried to flash again you can, or should not? If you have to flash just like the first time (OPS, APBOOT, PHONE, PDA, CSC?)

Hi,
Noob question because it's my first time..
I read that some group of users have problem with their Vibrant recovery mode which doesn't start the process when they press vol keys together and start the phone up !
I got mine 2 days ago and I was worried that maybe it isn't support that like a lot of users !
So I tried the method in my Vibrant and a text in yellow came with options in blue (reboot your device, erase data ect..)
So is this the recovery mode in the Vibrant ?!
Sorry for the silly question but it's my first time
Yup, that's it.
Yeah. Download ROM Manager from the market and install Clockwork Recovery and you'll get the actual recovery that allows you to do nandroid backups, flash custom ROMs etc.
^ that is a must do. I have steps in the sticky at the top of the general section if you need help.

Yeah. Going into recovery mode is something you'd use when you're rooted. If you're unrooted, there is honestly no reason to be going into recovery mode unless you want to wipe settings which can be rare for a unrooted user.
Well.. I don't know if root is required or not but the app would be pretty much useless if you didn't have root. So yeah, I'd say you'd need root.

The first link modifies a whole heap of files, and the second one modifies far less files but also doesn't have a version for stock (odexed) KK2. What did you flash from the second one?
Anyway, what I'm trying to get at is that they're not really comparable.
Easiest way to get back to a working state is to reflash your ROM or restore a nandroid backup if you took one. Messing around with trying to undo whatever you did might take a while.
Well i tried to install the theme throught recovery mode and now it stops there however i can get in download mode and recovery mode. I hope you got some more information for me so i can fix this
thanks for replying anyway

1) With rooting u also on stock firmware and not on Rom, which for theme is
2) Ur second link is for JKay Deluxe and this isn't a theme like u think, it's a modification tool for notificationbar, lockscreen and Power-off menu.
3) This screen is the normal bootscreen after flash (sign because not originally firmware [root])
I don't know how long u wait, but after flashing the JKay .zip it's normal that boot take some time (up to 3 min).
If u already wait so long an didn't boot u have to choices:
1) Flash original firmware again.
Search here and flash this like root via odin (READ INSTRUCTION!):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
2) Because cf-root u should have the CWM (ClockWorkMod).
- Go into Recovery Menu (Press Vol- ; Home and the Powerbutton 'til Logo like in third link appears)
- Then Choose Factory reset and after this make a reboot
If system isn't crashed in all u should get it work again, if not u have to choose point one.
If works u can choose a rom from here (like one u see in my signature), copy file on sd card and flash it via CWM (Go again in CWM and then "choose .zip from internal sd card">"flash .zip from internal sd card">then select .zip)
Much success. If anything unclear just let me know...

the above poster told you exactly what to do. if you have a backup rom just go into recovery and revert back to that and problem solved. no more to it. no need for any extra info but anyway if you say you have found a way good luck my friend
Hi,
I have successfully rooted my Xperia U phone (with ICS 4.0.1), and also installed the CWM.
I have downloaded the experience 2.1.zip rom file and placed the same in internal memory also.
Now when I restart my phone to be able to boot in recovery mode, I am not able to do so.
As soon as press power button, multi-coloured illumination doesn't take place in LED bar. As soons as Sony logo appears, I start pressing the 'Volume Down' button repeatedly, but nothing happens. It simply goes to Xperia logo animation screen and boots the phone with older ROM only.
Am I missing something. Please help. I want to install custom ROM to upgrade to JB, but I am not able to do so as I am not able to boot my phone in Recovery mode, which is required to flash the current ROM and installing new ROM on top of it (as per m knowledge).
Please Help. Urgent.
If video can be uploaded for the solution, i would highly appreciate the work and effort becoz I got frustrated now after following so many procedures given on internet to root / install CWM / boot in recovery. I am done with first two things: Rooting and Installing CWM. I struggling hard to reboot my phone in CWM mode
Thanks in advance.

those that have locked bootloader after the flash of a rom lose the recovery,you have to reinstall

You better go unlock your bootloader. Trust me, it's better because custom kernels have CWM. But if you want to install CWM your LB phone, it can be done too, by using RecoverX on Windows. Just post your questions here again if you have more problems

4.4.2 can not be rooted (proper permanent root) !
You will have to install stock JB (4.1.2) via .kdz , then root, install CWM recovery, update or flash to stock KK (4.4.2), and then from recovery to root agin.

//the hole point so far is so u have a custom recovery so that u can "force install/patch" the root
4 - flash 4.4.2 kdz / or update via normal ways (LG update from phone, or from LG PC Suite )
5 - enter CWM Recovery, and apply the root for 4.4.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2754633
And u are done !
The phone cant be hardbriked (from what i know, and most moder phones cant be hardbiricked). If u softbreak it, try the steps where it crashed, untill will work. (i had to try to install the kdz 20 times - i belive i had some cable/power issues with the pc). Also, do all this with the phone battery fully charged !!! (in case it does go wrong, u have enough hours of battery left to make it work)

Download links work fine for me !
U can download czech or any country, doesn't matter.
After u install the .kdz, u must reset the phone (it formats the cache , davlik, data, etc....) (when u put 20A again, all the original user data was intact, because the phone was not reseted).
http://www.hard-reset.com/lg-optimus-l9-ii-d605-hard-reset.html ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkzJlLY3T1k )
After u install the CWM you will be able to clear cashe, data, etc .. from the CWM Recovery menu.
A bit of reading the forums, wouldn't hurt either .....
edit: also note that the first boot takes a lot of time .... if it is more than 20 minutes than something went wrong. Try a few times to be sure, and then reinstall.
Sure, I have read it, but now I have problem with booting. I reinstall it several times, but the logo of LG is there for a long time ( sound and animation are repeated) - I left it maybe 5 min (could not be turned off - only remove battery), when it didn´t work, aj flashed again v20. So I am going to try it once again with czech kdz and leave it more time. I will prey

Sorry for that, but how to get into recovery? I did all, but when I update on 4.4.2, I cannot get to recovery. I tried from terminal (nothing) and app called reboot recovery (it reported, I need root) and manualy (vol+ and power) also didnt work. Before update everything worked (on old kdz).

[Q] How to boot to CWM without root?
[A]
1. Reinsert battery
2. Hold Power+Vol Up+Home for about ten seconds a white text appears, that says "Release all buttons" you have 500ms time if it reboots start from step 1 again.
YOU HAVE TO BE VERY EXACT! (If you once installed CWM you have it even when you flashed KK .zip)
or activate in settings, developer options, and then usb debugging. Connect with the pc and issue the command from there. I dont know the exact command, u shuld read the forum thread above... i belive is there (not sure). Anyway on this, google is a good friend.

Command for that is:
Code:
adb reboot recovery

1 - flash old rom (OFFICIAL) via kdz flasher
2 - root - Cydia impactor http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448085
3 - install recovery - CWM Recovery for example http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2652201
//the hole point so far is so u have a custom recovery so that u can "force install/patch" the root
4 - flash 4.4.2 kdz / or update via normal ways (LG update from phone, or from LG PC Suite )
5 - enter CWM Recovery, and apply the root for 4.4.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2754633
And u are done !
The phone cant be hardbriked (from what i know, and most moder phones cant be hardbiricked). If u softbreak it, try the steps where it crashed, untill will work. (i had to try to install the kdz 20 times - i belive i had some cable/power issues with the pc). Also, do all this with the phone battery fully charged !!! (in case it does go wrong, u have enough hours of battery left to make it work)

Everything is very nicely explained only one thing I don't understand. In order to install cm11, do I need to have root on 4.4.2 or can I flash the rom from rooted JB with CMW(to skip step 4 and 5 or is it necessary)? I hope you understand what I wanna ask. Thanks!

Once u got CWM installed, u dont care about anything else. So yes, after root on JB, and then CWM, you can install cm11 or what ever u want.
