I got my bell s2 rooted and removed the triangle. Rom manager seem to install the CWR. However, when I boot using the volume up, power, and home button, I always get the android 3e recovery mode, not the CWR. What am I doing wrong? How can I get into CWR to install the cognition rom? THANKS SO MUCH!
I would really appreciate if someone enlightened could explain this as well. I thought cwm wrote over the stock recovery? Its happened to me a few times and I've even had to flash with the damn PC at the convenience store via Odin (I'm a Mac guy) just to get into cwm to restore. If your in the actual stock recovery just three finger salute instead of reboot. Should carry out the command too can't wait to sell this thing and get the nexus. Great phone, just hate Odin and love fast boot lol

I think i read somewhere that rom manager isn't compatible with s2.. Better flash cf-root by chainfire, it is pre rooted and has cwm installed..

It sounds like you've lost root trying get rid of the triangle. Reflash cf root kernel, install your rom then buy a jig to remove the triangle. Jigs are as cheap as chips on ebay.

Don't use rom manager, simply flash the cf-root kernel and you'll have your cwm recovery.
I finally got it to work, thank you to all who posted!
Now I installed a custom rom on and now my samsung apps store is missing! anyone know how i can get it back?

Hello all, I'm hoping I can get some help. I cannot get passed stock recovery to Clockwork recovery. I am rooted and have done this many times so I know that you have to reinstall packages to get there, sometimes twice, but I have done it repeatedly and it keeps going back to stock recovery. Any ideas?

Maybe install ROM Manager and reflash the ClockworkMod Recovery?
You may need to check if you are indeed rooted check by manually going into Download mode, if that works you may need to reflash CWM, if not then you may need to reroot the phone
I've tried going though rom manager and it takes me to the same stock recovery. Reinstalling packages isn't working. I used Odin, went back to stock, used samsung kies mini to update to Froyo, Super one click root, and then 3e recovery. I'm not sure if I'm musing something but I've fine all of this before and had no issues until now.

I'm also having a problem with this, but it didn't start until after I flashed CM7 for Vibrant. Now the i9000 boot up goes before the Vibrant one, as well as not being able to get into CMW.
I finally got into recovery, had to reinstall packages about 45 times. Thanks for the help anyway

Flash it in Odin
sorry but I don't know what you mean....how do I get into odin??
You're messing with your phone's rom/kernel and you don't know what is Odin? You better read first.
Yeah brother you NEED to lookup odin. How did you even get red without using odin to flash recovery?

Well, I had help and my help is not here now......I know, I need to do a little more foot work to educate myself before asking silly questions. I have fun screwing with my phone though!
I did the same, except, being a mac user, I don't use Odin. It was quite simple to root and get the blue recovery on there without ever using Odin. I then (even after reading) flashed CWM using Rom Manager, and now I have the useless orange recovery. From what I understand, I can just place the recovery on the sdcard and flash it in my current recovery. Am I wrong?

Get rid of rom manager. It is useless to us right now. Yes, you can place the zip file for the latest recovery on your sd card and flash through your current recovery.

Hello, have been lurking on this forum for a while but never actually made any posts until now.
Let me start off my saying that I am a beginner when it comes to installing custom ROMs, I have only done it a few times before. I flashed my kernel, installed CWM and a custom ROM. After a while I got tired of the rom and decided to go back to Gingerbread 2.3.5. I hated the yellow triangle that shows up when using a custom kernel, so I went ahead and changed that back to stock as well, and that removed CWM as well.
But I've just discovered a ROM called "Batista70 Foxhound Edition 3.0" (which you can find in the i9100 general android dev section) and I love the look and feel it has, and would like to install it on my phone.
My question is pretty basic and simple:
Can I install this ROM without actually flashing the kernel (to avoid the f*ing annoying yellow triangle)? Or perhaps there is a way of flashing a kernel without getting the triangle? Though I'm not getting my hopes up for that question.
I also have a related question:
Can I install CWM without flashing the kernel?
Anything I forgot to add, let me know.
Regards,
Dimergon

If you by a jig off eBay for a few bucks all your problems will go away. It gets rid of the triangle and resets the flash counter. Well worth the $3.
CWM is within the kernel so to use it a custom kernel is required. CWM is worth having for backups and simple flashing.
My suggestion. Install one of chainfires cfrooted stock kernels. Use the jig to get rid of triangle. Then backup via CWM incase you want to go back at some stage.
Then flash foxhound.
Hope this helps.

What you could try is rooting it with zergush exploit. Then download mobile odin from the market, flash cf-root true mobile odin and then you have the recovery needed to flash. And no yellow triangle.
Don't know if it's possible, because I never tried it. But we are on a developers forum after all.
You could of course just flash the CF-root and then remove the yellow triangle with instructions from the CF-root thread. Or buy a jig.
Buy a USB-Jig from Ebay its a good investment and helps you on the triangle.. then download the old Bootloader and save it to your pc and then you are safe
All you need to remove the triangle is a zImage from a secure kernel it's all on the cf thread.

Thanks for the replies. I will definitely have a look at the USB jig, seems like the way to go.
And, to the reply above, is it possible flashing a secure kernel after installing a custom ROM? Seems to me this will not be without complications.

My phone wont boot now.
It stays stuck at the 2nd Samsung during the boot up.
What happen was I updated today to offical ICS from my rooted gingerbread.
I updated via kias today to get official ICS, got it working and I noticed I didn't have cwm install anymore, so I followed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1504218
It is pass it did it reboot thing, and never got past the 2nd "samsung" loading screen.
Anyone know how to get my phone booting again?
Flash the latest ICS kernel
I am not sure how to do that without cwm.
Before I updated to ICS when I press power + up down, it booted into CWM. Now when I do that I boots into Android System Recovery <3e>
EDIT: Good news.
Got CWM through installed though odin and then I restored to my gingerbread backup I made earlier.
Flash your roms via clockwork recovery mod from now on.
Drop the ROM .zip on sd card and then enter recovery. Wipe everything three times each then flash a uclf6 based ROM. Never touch Odin or kies again. Be happy. Ice cream sandwich is way better than ginger bread

Had the same exact problem. I "believe" the problem was that the CWM I flashed was perhaps incompatible with the official ICS?
I used Odin to flash cwm 5.5.0.4 as suggested and the fone was shut down with the hanging Samsung screen as you mentioned. I used the DL screen with Odin to the 600mb Team Objection ROM, which at least got me up and running again. I found out that CWM did in fact flash once the ROM was compatible with it. Updated CWM, then to finally get full stability, I had to do a factory reset after clearing both caches, then install the CM9 official.

Update: I installed official ICS again last night, looks like I lost my root and CWM.
I don't want to mess anything up again, so could you tell me exactly what CWM file you used to flash so it doesn't hang at samsung again?
I was having the same problems but I think I was doing it wrong. How are you flashing the root files? I upgraded from Kies, then used Odin to flash cwm touch (5.5.0.4 I think), make sure to let the reboot and that it's actually turned on and you can see your homescreen. Once you do that, THEN flash the superuser 3.0.7 in cwm. Let the phone reboot properly and it should be okay.
I was doing the same without the reboots and that's what caused me to hang at the logo, but after the above it worked well. Give it a try. For anyone who needs to flash the T-Mobile radios also let the phone reboot and then flash it because I was having issues with that which was fixed by letting the phone reboot.
Make nandroids at every step in case it does hang so you can just restore and try again instead of flashing everything all over again.

I've also tried rooting my AT&T Galaxy Note I717 which had recently upgraded to ICS via AT&T/Kies and my phone is stuck at the Samsung boot screen. While I'm no expert with rooting phones, I had no problem rooting it when it had GB installed so I figured I wouldn't have any problems rooting it again. Is flashing the ICS kernel the best way to fix this? Where do I get the ICS kernel from and how do I flash it?
Details: After my phone upgraded to ICS 4.0.4 kernel 3.0.8 (IMM76D.UCLF6), I followed some instructions to root it using Odin3-v1.85 and PDA->pda.tar. Other instructions used cwm-touch-i717-120414.tar.md5 and odin_n1717_cwm_recovery_b4.tar and I tried those but to no avail. So I have CWM v5.5.0.4 installed but I don't know what to do next.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Update: I restored my phone back to a non-rooted working Android 4.0.4 by downloading the stock ROM for my phone (I717UCLF6_I717ATTLF6_I717UCLF6_HOME.tar.md5) and uploading it using Odin3-v1.85/PDA. I didn't even lose any of my settings or data. Now I need to figure out how to successfully root it. But at least I'm not worried about getting stuck on the Samsung screen anymore.
Open odin , PDA cwm file, Droid in dl mode, plug in start unplug, reboot, go to cwm recovery mode and backup onto sd card.
Im learning more, as i soft bricked mine last time

You realize the reason you were stuck was because you flashed a GB kernel onto an ICS system? It would never boot. As the second post suggested... all you had to do was flash an ICS kernel to get it to boot.

so correct...you nailed it...so many are trying to root with gb kernal....
I hope they go to the page I made and follow the green arrowed how to root ics...it is very super simple process to root the official ics...but ....
This happened to me after misreading a comment.
If you put your phone into download mode, plug it in, run kies, and do an emergency firmware recovery. You'll need the serial number. My phone is stock ICS again. Works fine.

so cwm 5.5.0.4 touch is a GB kernel? Because that's all I flashed after the KIES update to ICS and I got the hanging Samsung logo.
I believe some people are trying to get ICS rooted with this cwm and are getting stuck. Of course there are ways out of it, but it'll help the learning process if we can find the problem.
