I've flashed djp952's geewiz 1.1.1 and I'm VERY happy with the performance of it so far.
few things, its got clockworks on it....supposedly.... downloaded rom manager and flashed clockworks through there and when i reboot, its just the standard 3e recovery mode. Along with that comes all the "signature verification..blh blah blah"
so how exactly then am i supposed to get clockworksmod working on this girl?

i found similar advice somewhere else....and when I tried the custom recovery that they gave, it was a voodoo that locked my phone into the voodoo recovery...and i had to start this damn process all over again....
any suggestions for a good custom recovery?

So I recently flashed to aospish_jk2_v1.0. Works just fine. But I wanna goof around with some other roms. But when I try to flash to other roms or my previous stock backup, it goes into the recovery flashing screen for about 2 seconds. Then the phone restarts and I'm in recovery. When I reboot the phone I'm still on the same rom..what should I do? Try to use odin to flash another rom?

are you flashing though the clock work recovery? Is the recovery letters blue or green?
I've found the best way to go between roms is always Odin back to stock, then install the new rom. That seems to prevent most problems.

I used rom manager to flash. But when in recovery letters are blue and it says android system recovery. So I'm assuming clockwork recovery actually hasn't installed?

You need to open rom manager and flash the CW recovery... from rom manager then click on flash to CWR... it will take you to stock recovery, click on reinstall packages.
now you are at CWR and can flash new rom.
Ah. My problem was that I never flashed ce recovery properly. Thanks guys.

You have to select reinstall packages, and it will go to the blue recovery again, then press reinstall packages again and clockwork should boot up everytime.
So i just have to keep on reinstalling packages until cwm works?? I think i will lose my superuser etc.. What zip file do i have to put on my intrnal card?

Once u are rooted you done need update.zip for root
What if i already rooted my phone using super one click root on my froyo 2.2? Do I still have to update? By update.zip?

After you used super one click root, delete that update.zip file that it places in your internal memory.
Then download rom manager, click flash clockwork-mod recovery and it should say boot into the blue recovery. In there click reinstall packages, and if it takes yiu to the blue screen again, click reinstall packages one more time and you should boot into clockwork from now on.
Ok thank you master and slave one more question do I still have to install the unzip thing from my internal sd? Or not a any more?

Since you are on 2.2, you need the modified 3e recovery. Then you should be able to get into CWM.
Or you can just use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954509 and Odin back to 2.1 and not have any issues updating your ROM.
Reading all the guides helps alot with these questions.

The method I was giving you was for 2.1
Its easier to root from 2.1.
But the thread above should help
Another route around 3e recovery is to use a Voodoo kernel, because those have CWM baked right in. I recommend this because for whatever reason I couldn't get modded 3e recovery working.

odin back to stock as people have said 2.1 is easier to root and then do as ur told with root and cwr!
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?
You need to flash a kernel other than stock, rebooting with the stock kernel will revert back to blue recovery

why dont you just flash CWM in odin again?
I have flashed CWM again with odin. It still won't take

This (though in reverse order).
You need to reflash CWM by odin, go into Odin immediately upon the first boot (not using Rom Manager!), and flash a new kernel from the SDcard. The stock kernel will trash CWM if it gets a chance to boot.
saf66. any ones in mind and where I can obtain them. And as if I weren't asking enough questions. (Sorry I know I am) Methods to flash them?
Or any others of you please

Hello,
I have just rooted my phone and am now attempting to get a custom recovery on it. After rooting, I downloaded rom manager and selected flash clockworkmod. A message came up and said it was successful, however when I try booting into recovery it goes to the stock android recovery. Any idea on what I am doing wrong would be helpful.
Thanks
Your problem is that you can't install CWM via ROM manager. The success message you saw was that it downloaded an update.zip file properly, nothing more. ROM Manger is also completely worthless for our phones.
How should I go about flashing clockwork then?
Odin via pda

Read the stickies in the Development section, just so that you don't accidentally rush it and mess up.

I've installed CWM. However, whenever I to boot into recovery it'll take me the "Android system recovery <3e>" with no option to install from SD, therefore I can't install any ROM. What can I do? Please help.
If you have CWM installed, when you go to the stock recovery, click on reinstall packages. It will reboot into stock recovery again and again click reinstall packages, and it should take you to the green CWM recovery.

He has 3e recovery and that won't work.
Op: Odin a voodoo kernel, as it's the easiest way and has cwm built in. The other two methods include ironing to jfd and flashing custom rom (easiest if custom is your end goal) or replacing 3e recovery with a modified one (hardest method by far).
