What is going on in this portion? The spelling is wrong, which suggests it's indie developer stuff. So did I put it on, or did it come with the phone?
I have previously rooted my phone and, I believed, *unsuccessfully* installed ClockworkMod. I have since unrooted, upgraded the OS via Kies and performed a factory reset.
Is this portion ClockworkMod?
What is it doing?
And why is there a "can't access" message?

That's the stock recovery. I've read somewhere that this "error" happens with other Samsung devices too so, it's ok. In fact, it does apply the CSC.

the 1st part is stock recovery mode.
the second part happens sometime when you deroot and do not flash the stock kernel back on to your phone.

Do not use Rom Manager remove it from your phone .
If you want recovery flash CWM and Root from here .
Root + CWM .

Troubleshooting:
Droid users: Stuck at the "M" logo? Flash an alternate recovery and flash back to ClockworkMod.
HTC Users: Flash recovery not working? Try fastbooting a recovery on.
Droid X/2/Pro Users: You must run the Bootstrap application first to use ROM Manager.
Samsung users: You must flash a Clockwork compatible kernel first (see XDA forums)

the only thing now is i can't get to the download mode .
hey, now i can go to the download mode already. thanks man

[Q] problems with ClockWorkMod in Galaxy I9100

Hi
I have a SGSII (i9100) which I have successfully rooted (all "permission" files work ok through Superuser). However, I don't seem to be able to install Clockworkmod or, if successful, then I can't boot normally.
When I try to install CWM via Odin3, it installs ok, but the phone then hangs on the triangle screen. I can boot into the CWM screen where it tells me that it cannot mount to system nor to the cache. Any attempt to reboot normally fails (i.e. it hangs on the triangle screen). Thanks to a kind member helping me, I have been able to recover each time by using the I9100XXKI3.ZIP package.
I have also downloaded Rom Manager and tried to flash CWM from there. That says that it has been successfull, but when I then boot to the recovery, it tells me that "E:failed to verify whole-file signature and e:signature verification failed". Consequently, no CWM, just the usual recovery screen.
Am I missing something? Can someone help, please? At the moment I have root, but can't install any custom roms.
Thanks, masterpointer
Try to flash kernel with cwm. That should do it
Sent from my sgs2 running cm9 using xda app
First thing rom manager is not compatible will the sgs2, second thing it's confusing when you say you restore a .zip as this is done via cwm? In order to get recovery via odin you need to be using an appropriate rooting kernel. When you did manage to get into cwm did you wipe cache and delvik etc?

Download cf root kernel and flash with odin, and you`ll have cwm recovery. Don`t use rom manager with sgs2, never.

I did use an appropriate kernel. I wiped neither the cache nor the delvic cache before flashing, and after flashing I can't as the message says: "e:failure to mount \system" and several massages "e:falure to mount \cache\..."

I take your point regarding Rom Manager. but that aside, I have flashed CWM via Odin3 onto a rooted kernel and it does install, but phone hangs (freezes) on the triangle screen. I have tried several versions of CWM an several rooted kernels. They all install and they all freeze!

Boot in recovery, mount and storage, format system, data,cache. Pull battery out, after 2 min put it back, boot in download mode, start odin, flash stock rom, reboot, reboot again in download mode, then root with cf root kernel. Should solve you problem

I don't have "mount & storage" in recovery. Only Reboot System, Apply update from SD card, wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition.

You need to install a cwm rooted kernel .

yes, but therein lies the problem:
After I use cf-root (with KI4 kernel), the phone hangs (despite Odin3 showing everything ok)! And when i then boot into recovery, it says "e:failure to mount \system" and several massages "e:falure to mount \cache\..." and attempts to "mount" the listed items, all fail.

Thanks for your help, but as I said previously, I was unable to do any of your suggestions because as soon as I installed CWM, I was unable to mount the system and the cache.
However, since then I did some further research and came across a forum where several others had the same problem and one of them tried to use "Speedmod-kernel-s2-k2-21-Odin.tar" and, lo and behold, that worked for me as well!!!

For rooting your NK1, just follow the direction in the OP.\
---
1. Take the NK1 OTA update.
2. Download and install Towelroot-v3.apk(this version does not require internet access).
3. Place your phone into "Download Mode" (press and hold the Home, Volume Down, and Power keys until the phone powers on and displays warning screen, then press Volume Up key) and Flash the I545_NC5_Stock_Kernel using Odin's PDA slot(AP in Odin v3.09+).
4. Open Towelroot from your app drawer and press "Make it Rain" to root your device.
5. Power off then boot into "Download Mode" again and flash the I545_NK1_Stock_Kernel also using Odin's PDA slot(AP in Odin v3.09+).
6. Download SuperSU to manage root access. Done!

Unable to flash rom

Hi,
I decided to flash the Cosmic ROM on my rooted Quattro. I downloaded the rom to sdcard0, but now when I booted into the CWM, I am getting the following menu options:
reboot system now
Apply update from ADB
Apply update from SDCARD
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
#MANUAL MCDE#
--Apply Multi-CSC..
Applied the CSC code:INS
Successfully applied multi-CSC
When I chose "apply update from SDCARD", I got no options, except the one which took me back me to the CWM main menu. The output was:
#MANUAL MCDE#
--Apply Multi-CSC..
Applied the CSC code:INS
Successfully applied multi-CSC
E: unknown volume for path [/SDCARD]
On the other hand, when I was rooting my phone, I had seen an option of "install .zip", but I can't see it now. Can you tell me what can I do to flash the rom now?
Please forgive me if this is a very silly question because as you may realise I am a noob to this Android world.
Best Regards

I followed the steps as stated at http://trueandroid.com/install-cloc...-4-5-on-galaxy-grand-quattro-gt-i8552-how-to/
But, I am getting the same menu as mentioned in the first post of the topic.
Edit 1:
At the time of rooting, I had followed the steps as mentioned at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1kEc7GipYU and flashed with CWM Recovery 6.0.4.5. So, shouldn't the CWM be present there in my phone as it is already rooted?

After rooting the phone will not have CWM, root only give permission to modify the system.
Do this, after flashing CWM (not root) dont let the phone boot normaly, instead boot on recovery (home + vol up), and then go and select option to reboot system then "Disable flash recovery" will appear, select "yes".
The stock rom flash stock recovery after boot so you will lose the CWM, so doing what I say this wont happen [emoji6]

[Q] Need Working Kobo 10HD CWM Flashable ZIP

Hello,
I have a Kobo 10HD and rooted and installed CWM v6.0.5.1. I made a backup before and then installed Titanium Backup update.zip. Installation of that zip caused a bootloop (back to CWM). No problem, I thought, I can just restore the backup I made. No dice. I tried to restore the backup and still bootlooping. I even tried to installed the stock ROM ZIP and it fails with the message: (from recovery.log):
nv_copy_blob_file: couldn't get the device path
script aborted (no error message)
script aborted (no error message)I:Legacy property environment disabled.
E:Error in /data/media/0/macallan-ota-932.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
I have read that some people have had success installing this zip using stock recovery, but I have no idea how to get stock recovery.
Also, I noticed using adb shell that CWM does actually put all the files back into system and other areas during the restore. Upon reboot, and subsequent bootloop, the system files are gone. It must have something to do with an automatic script that is running after restore.
SOLVED!

After a few more hours of fiddling, I was able to get the device back up. I wiped absolutely everything manually with CWM (format /X) instead of Wipe/Factory Reset. The factory reset was not clearing the SD card, but format/data and /data/media cleared it. I then applied the stock zip that is available via adb sideload. Installation failed with the same error, but I rebooted with the adb reboot command. The device booted back into Kobo stock requiring several updates. It actually got stuck repeating one update several times until I booted back into stock recovery and cleared data and did a factory reset. The update applied correctly and then another upgrade came (a total of three upgrades). I rooted again and we are back in business.
For some reason, I think the key step was manually wiping /data/media. I'm not exactly sure why this would cause a bootloop for CWM restore. Anyway, I hope this helps someone else who may run into a similar issue.
Hi zhzhou!
Just a quick question:
do you happen to remember if stock recovery for Kobo was CWM? I'm in process of restoring stock ROM +recovery and little bet surprised to see CWM after flashing stock recovery
Thanks a lot!

Stock was definitely not CWM. It was a long time ago and I no longer have the device, but I think CWM was still present after restoring stock. I think you'll need fastboot if you want to flash the stock recovery image back on. But why do that? TWRP is now available for the device.
Thanks for quick reply! I had CM on it but had some artifact issues so wanted to revert to full stock, even recovery
