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

Hi guys, I really need help restoring my phone back to working order. I made the dumb mistake of flashing a stock 2.2 kernel while using the bionix 1.3.1 rom. Now my phone is stuck on the team whiskey logo loop. I can not get into recovery using the volume plus power button anymore. It sends me into samsung recovery 2e. How do I go about fixing this problem? Any help would be appreciated.
Hmmm...might use Odin to flash the kernel from the Bionix.zip? I'm guessing you didn't disable lagfix before flashing the stock kernel. Shouldn't be a big deal if that's the case.
Edit: That's of course assuming you can get into Download Mode.
Edit 2: Not sure how easily you can flash only a kernel using Odin. Might try Heimdall if that doesn't work?
Agreed! Whats the kernel you tried to flash? Link maybe? It really shouldnt be any problem maybe it just needed to sit. In either case it sounds like the update.zip should still be there. Try reinstall:update see if that werks. Good luck!
I just realized what exactly I did that caused everything to mess up. I wiped the cache partition which erased my data including the update.zip. Can anyone provide the 3 files I need to return my phone back to stock condition using Odin. I found the thread but the links did not work anymore.

Do you still have the Clockwork Recovery update.zip on your PC?

Unfortunately I don't because I used ryan's oneclicklagfix as the method of rooting so I never had the update.zip on my computer. I been looking into restoring it back to factory everything but the links for the baseband, kernels, etc are not working. Do you know any working links?
I believe everything you need should be able to be found in the guide:

While I was in CWM, I wanted to install a different Rom,
so i factory wiped everything, installed what i've thought a rom, but it turned out to be just a kernel, FFC support kernel,
so I went back into recovery and tried to install a rom but i ended up just instailling update.zip on my root of sd card and rebooted.
now im getting a bootloop, quickly a screen goes by saying install not complete..
What can i do ?
I would advise using odin to go back to stock reroot the phone and try again

Odin'ing back to stock should fix your issue. Here's a guide on doing so... http://rootzwiki.com/topic/605-guid...nja-apps-everything/page__p__11106#entry11106
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

ok look for the green arrow...and use those threads....to root...k
odin for touch cwm
flash super user
your rooted
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.

Wait what??!!??!!
you need to read read read read and PLEASE read
Because CMW is not a kernel
Its a recovery
People wouldn't have these issues if they read.
Please refer to the stickies before you really damage your phone.

The OP had posted that he flashed Da_g's GB kernel trying to get root...your issue if flashing CWM may be different. Hopefully you use the steps outlined by bigjoe in his post.

i recently installed via odin the stock jellybean release rom on my phone along with cfroot and simunlocker.
i have found the stock jellybean rom to have a few too many bugs for my liking and want to go back to stock ics.
I have downloaded the stock ics rom latest release and tried to flash it again using odin in the pda box, it all seems to go fine but then the phone only seems to reboot as far as the samsung logo then stops.
What have i done wrong and how do i fix it please (or should i just be waiting longer for it to boot from the samsung logo?)
thanks
Try boot into recovery and factory reset.
