I have tried to apply a new rom, after wiping the data of my previus I noticed I havent moved it into the external SD so I restared the mobile in order to move the .zip file.
However when I restared the phone I got stuck in my boot screen... I use the Omega rom. How can I boot into CMW with "hotkeys" at the booting?
Is the button combo not working? Power off or batt pull and reinsert battery. Press both volume buttons and power button down. I usually start with vol down/up then power... hold all three down until you see galaxy s splash screen. I stay holding down for a small second after I see the Galaxy S, then I let go. Should put you in clockworkmod recovery

Hi,
I am trying to install cyanogenmod by following this:
http :/ /wiki.cyanogen...ll_Update_Guide
But after
Installing the ClockworkMod Recovery step
I now just keep booting the phone into OverStock smaller. Ligher. Faster.
I have tried pressing the vol up/down button and power button to try to get the phone into Recovery, but that does not work.
Help please.
What is the version of cynogenmod? I think overstock kernel is for froyo roms .

Version 7.1
If you use gn bootloader,
For Recovery - Both Volume Keys + Power Button
For Download - Both Volume Keys and Connect usb cable
Or lidroid bootloader,
Download Mode: Volum Up + Home + Power buttons
Recovery Mode: Volum Down + Home + Power buttons
This might works for you.
I am just following this guide: http:/ / wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Vibrant:_Full_Update_Guide.
And I think I have installed 'Installing the ClockworkMod Recovery' since I only see the ' OverStock smaller. Ligher. Faster.' whenever the phone boots up.
My question is which bootloader I am using? gn? or lidroidbootload?
Don't know much about cm bootloader but froyo button combination should work.. try this method

Overstock is a froyo kernal so it looks like u need to Odin back to stock and retry. Or try to flash gb boot loaders then flash cm7
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Here is a list of Kernels.
I regularly have it at the Overstock screen when flashing back to CM7... this is what I'd do:
1. If you're currently on the overstock screen, pull the battery and put it back in to shut it off.
2. Hold VOL-UP & VOL-DOWN while booting until you see the recovery screen.
3. If you see any errors while going into the recovery screen, you didn't let it stay on the Overstock screen for long enough, it needs time to repartition the filesystem to the format CM7 uses, if this happens, you should re-flash the overstock zImage with Heimdall, let the first boot stay on the Overstock screen for like 5 minutes, then restart at step 1. (You should hear your phone talking to you about a reformatting process while booting)
4. Turn on USB Mass Storage mode in the Mounts menu
5. Copy over the CM7 update package from here:
- get.cm/get/update-cm-7.1.0.1-Vibrant-signed.zip
6. Install the package.
7. Reboot & Profit.
EDIT: I just realized you said the recovery method does not work. That is odd, you should be able to... Did you press BOTH volume buttons at once using your index finger on VOL-UP, your middle finger on VOL-DOWN and your thumb on POWER?
thanx for this thread OP helped me out alot
I tried to flash a new rom, after wiping the data of my previus I noticed I haven't moved it into the external SD so I restared the mobile in order to move the .zip file.
At the point where you set a google account I tried to rush it though but at one point the phone restarted and from that moment on it always gets stuck in boot screen.I use the Omega rom.
How can I boot into CMW with "hotkeys" at the beggining of booting (Samsung logo)?
Things I tried:
Removing the batery for 1 min and restarting,
Almost all possible key combinations at the boot screen (Samsung boot) not the rom boot
CWM recovery
Hold down
Vol Up Button + Home Button + Power Button at first splash screen release buttons .
jje
Normal 3-Button Combo should work. Maybe you have to be fast after insert the battery again.
If you can't go there, try to get into download mode a start a fresh install with odin or heimdall.

What is easier to use odin or heimdall?
ideally flash with odin to the T if your going to upgrade the rom to whatever you choose, it will do a full wipe for you bit of a pain losing your data but its really the only way of getting back up to scratch put it into download mode vol down - menu button + power button then an option will show press vol up and go from there be warned you must follow the odin instructions perfectly

Download a ROM for your S3 that you know will work (Stock Samsung or CM10 or something stable) from the S3 Android Development section (Should be a zip file).
Copy it to your SD Card and reboot into ClockworkMod Recovery.
Then backup everything by selecting "Backup And Restore"> "Backup".
Then select Format Dalvik and Format Cache, then go into Mounts and Storage and format your /System.
After this return to the main menu and install the ROM you downloaded earlier.
I've tried following the directions from here to install CM 10.1
pureandroid .net/2013/06/nook-tablet-root-cm.html
I am able to boot into CWM 6.0.2.7 holding the power button + n button then powering on normally
I've tried flashing cm_acclaim_10.1.0_29JUN2013_HD_SDC.zip from iamafanof.wordpress .com/2013/02/18/cm10-1-jellybean-android-4-2-2-for-nook-tablet-0218/
After flashing, I selected reboot normally in CWM.
However, now I'm forever stuck on the white nook read forever screen.
I can boot into CWM 6.0.2.7 holding the power button + n button then powering on normally but nothing else.

cm_acclaim_10.1.0_29JUN2013_HD_SDC.zip is for flashing and running CM10 off SD card.
If you'd like to go for CM10.1 or CM10.2, ROM and Gapps zip files for EMMC can be found at http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=acclaim&type=stable and http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps.
