Normal recovery method, including stock recovery method, is to hold down volume up and volume down as you power on the device. That is the universal method to reach Streakmod or CockworkMod and even the stock recovery.

I am trying to flash a new Axura rom from an older version but it doesnt give me an option to choose a file from the sdcard. It just has one option to reinstall packages and it searches for update.zip
My recovery menu reads:
Android System Recovery <2e>
Samsung recovery utils
- for BML -
Can you please help me address this issue
What method are you using to get into recovery mode?

I tried the following 3 options:
(i) Using ROM Manager to reboot into recovery
(ii) Holding power button down and selecting recovery
(iii) Rebooting and holding the power button down, with both volume buttons
I dont get it. I even used ROM manager to update latest recovery version but nothing. I used to be able to install specific zip files when using a Team Whiskey ROM earlier but cant since I installed this Axura ROM.
Really appreciate your help.
Figured it out.
Reinstalled the update.zip provided by s15274n for rooting. Got me the custom recovery mode

Awesome, was about to make that suggestion
I read that when you have 3e it doesn't allow you to have CWM. I can only access CWM through ROM manager. If I try to get to CWM with power and vol up, I always get into the default android recovery 3e which leads me to ask, how do I downgrade to 2e?
Are you sure you have a Photon 4G?
Positive

To get to Android recovery you need to press Vol down and power, then go through the fast boot menu by pressing Vol down about 5 times. It should now say Android recovery, press Vol up and it should go into cwm. Works every time for me

pwr+Vol up gives you rsd protocol or fast boot mode.depending on what state your phone is.. power + volume down gives you a few options starting with fast boot then scroll with vol dwn button and selecting with vol up button. On the photon. OP sounds strange as how he gets to recovery lol

then you don't have CWM installed. grab one of the listed ones from here http://www.motosunfire.com/clockworkmod-recovery/ and then install it via moto-fastboot or from the rom managers recovery. then you're good to go. highly recommended by everyone would be jokers v3 or v4 recovery.
cwm recovery

if you have cwm installed on your phone and you goto recovery mode and it brings up the standard android recovery then your recovery will not allow cwm to run on your phone untill you downgrade the android recovery
when you goto recovery at the top you will probably see this android recovery (3) if so you need to download gingerbread and flash it with odin after that you should be good . i had the same problem as you and thats how i fixed it

Thanks. A very late reply and I just went with TWRP instead and had no problems. I'm getting the S4 today but I appreciate your answer and I'm sure it will help others in the future.
Hi guys,
I've a problem with my TF201. I just rooted the Tf201 and after it I flashed CWM with the ROMmanager. Then I noticed I have to unlock my Prime, so i did. Now I want to boot to the CWM, but it doesnt work. Not from ROMmanager or holding VolDown and Powerkey. Did I missed something? Pls help my.
Thanks for your support.

Save yourself some trouble and go directly to twrp. You will have less issues when you go to recover.

Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1615990 follow the fastboot flash method you should be fine. This should have been posted in Q &A for next time.....
Since you did not unlock it before installing CMW it probably didnt even flash.
Would explain why you cant get in.
As people said use TWRP version 2.2.0.0 (for the newer version you first need the nvflash bootloader) instead. Its better on the prime then CMW.
You can install it via fast boot which is in the android sdk.
PS: CMW backup does not work, the developer doesn't seem to care.
He is probably not holding the volume down key while holding the power key then waiting for the message that says push volume up key to boot into recovery.
You can't boot directly into recovery as far as I'm aware.
The above post didn't explain that very well.

Twrp is better.... if you go the nvflash path.... it is worth it.... just for the peace of mind.

Can't get into Fastboot. Boots into Recovery directly to CWM. Also tried pushing via ADB, TF201 not found.
First time i rooted my phone, flashed CWM, everything was fine.. Then I flashed RazoDroid and after that phone is stuck at boot logo of ace and isn't booting forward.
I tried going to downloading and recovery mode but I am not able to access any of the two. Tried the volume+home+power button combo but nothing works!
Any suggestions for unbricking my phone or bringing it to senses???
Recovery is power + home. (correct me if i am wrong)
If you are unable to do anything there is a guide to flash stock rom.
Have a look to it.

Go to the Recovery Mode and restore backup or reinstall ROM again . . . BTW you're another noob with existential problem on this forum . . . You're so lazy to find the same problem like yours? Yes, because you're so lazy and you must create new 10000...th crappy thread . . .

So I will help by saying if you can not find a way to fix your installation then unbricking tutorial can be found in the stickies at the top and are easy to follow just double check every step. This will involve returning to stock firmware found here or at Samfireware.com. to get into 'download' or 'odin' mode you are best to turn phone off completely, then hold power button and BOTH volume buttons down, then when it warns you not to flash firmwares press vol up to say its ok, then your in download mode.
Once at stock again (and your happy to do it again) try to follow the tutorial again. Were you using the latest CWM version of Raef's kernel as that can only work on EXT4 file system, as standard our 'i' device is RFS file system so the E3 version is the way to go.
.....but then I have been a n00b and not looked at the RazoDroid thread to see what file system it installs on or even if it comes with a custom kernel or not. If it does not include a kernel flashing (using Odin) the latest odin version of Raef's kernel may fix it.
Links to kernels are in the dev forum where you found the rom ^^

I'm having the strangest problem: I cannot get into CWM recovery mode by booting with the volume down button pressed. I just get a SONY logo, followed by XPERIA, and then the colorful flares of the stock ROM, as if I weren't pressing the volume down button at all.
I have unlocked the bootloader, rooted my phone, and tried three different methods of installing CWM:
1. using cwm 1.0 nypon script
2. using Team XHRR cwm script (which seems to be the same one)
3. installing the Recovery X app
All of these scripts seem to do their job succesfully, but when I shut my phone down, and boot again with volume down pressed, my phone just boots normally.
Can anybody help? I really want to install kitkat!

Which thread are you referring to? This one uses CWM to wipe the drive and flash the phone...
Anyway, if anyone else would read this thread looking for a way to access CWM, there are ways to access it without using the buttons. You can use the adb command "adb reboot recovery" or install an app to reboot to recovery mode. I found a guide on theandroidsoul .com - I'd post the link, but I'm not allowed to post external links yet...
thx and grtz

1. Fastboot kernel (f)rom zip, there you have CWM recovery.
And don't forget to copy the zip to your internal memory before you flash the kernel.
You can flash a stock kernel with built in cwm. Many kernel is working out on this with cwm.
