Followed the instructions on Cyanogen to get my GS2 rooted and all, But I've been having an issue with CWM as the back button will not work, So I flashed another verision, which works great, BUT it will not stick, once back in the rom, if I go back to CWM its the version that is giving me issues again.
It is linked to the kernal? As the version I installed CWM for me.

Just do a backup through Recovery Mode (Press and hold when powering om phone - Power, Home Volume up)
That did not seem to help, I do have clockwork installed but I cannot get a new version to replace it permanently.

What kernel did you user to root your phone was it a chainfire kernel, also what rom have you flashed.
Whatever you may use, either of the ROMs have their own qualities and defects. But one thing I have noticed: when using Rom Mannager app the battery gets emptied quicker. The difference might be of 2-3hours/day. I have tried this on my Galaxy Note and my Galaxy S2 and as well on my Galaxy S using diferent ROMs and experimental mofdified OS.
Installed different rom and modem/radio no matter what I do, I cannot get another version of CWM to actually stay on the device. Consistently reverts to the version I installed originally.
Any other ideas?

Recovery is built into the kernel on Samsung devices, flash a kernel with the cwm recovery version you want built in.

Hello,
Not sure if this has been brought up before.
I flashed the simply galaxy (gingerbread) rom last night. I come from bionixV 1.2.1.
I have 2 issues right now. I can not see the recovery. When ever I boot into recovery it freezes/hangs
in the vibrant boot logo. I read somewhere that the recovery is behind the boot logo and I can not see it.
I tried the 3 button combo and the rom manager reboot into recovery - I still can not get into recovery
I will appreciate any help.
Also, I installed titanium backup, it installed correctly, but I can not see it in the app drawer.
thanks,

I think I told this before in the rom's thread, you cannot boot into recovery by choosing that option from the power screen. You've to flash a 2.2 kernel (overstock) using the sgs kernel flasher app and then reboot, press the 3 buttons combo and you'll have the recovery screen full functional.
READ, READ AND READ my friend before you flash any rom.
I flashed the overstock 2.1 using the SGS kernel flasher app.
Now my phone hangs at the overstock logo.
I took out the battery and powereed on, it still hangs at the overstock logo.
I can do the 3 button combo to go to recovery.
SGS Kernel flasher bricks me everytime....not really recommended....but that could be that only way to flash a kernel I guess...or ODin
flash to stock..

You've to use the 3 buttons combo to get into recovery. Take the battery off, press power and the volume buttons, when the vibrant screen shows up, take your finger off the power and keep the other on the volume. TARAAA, you're in recovery.
OK , I understand flashing overstock kernel, allows me to do what I want in recovery. after I finish what I have to do. I need to flash back to a 2.3 based kernel
What kernel do you recommend so that I can use simply galaxy again?
How about the lidroid kernel, it says recovery works and no headset toggle to use? Have you tried lidroid kernel?

No. And I advise you not to either, it could well brick your phone for good with it's bootloader modification. I'd suggest flashing the Gold 2.0 kernel. Then when the phone boots up, flash the beta 7 kernel, using the sgs kernel flasher.

will you be kind enough to post me a link to gold 2 kernal and the beta 7 kernel. I tried a search i am not sure if its the correct kernels you mentioned
thanks
There you go, they're attached in the op here
thank you
I noticed you have malice 2.3.1 ,is this a gingerbread rom?
Nope. It's a 2.2.1 one. Im not running it at the moment though, been jumping through 4 roms in the last 24 hours alone, hard to keep up with the sig
based from your experience what is the 2.3 rom that you like best
At the moment it is a classified one, maybe in a day or two it will be posted around here. You'll know it then
In the meantime, SimplyGalaxy is the best around I say.
@abu-7abash
Sorry for all the questions. I went to the link you posted which is Damiangto's forum. I am unable to find the kernel. I registered and I still can not find a download for the kernel
can you guide where in the website it is
thanks
Better yet I attached them for you.
thank you very much.
question:
the simply galaxy has voodoo enabled?
Does thi kernel have voodoo? if it doesn't that mean I have to disable voodoo before flashing these kernels?

why do I have to flash first the gold 2.0 and then flash the beta 7.
can I just flash immediately to beta 7
Got my Note a few hours ago. Charged it up. Downloaded Odin. Rebooted to download mode. Used Odin to flash some pda.tar that I got from a thread here which said it would install root.
My phone rebooted, and it has been stuck at "Samsung" ever since. Reboots and pulling battery do nothing. Reboots to a stuck samsung logo. I've also, since, flashed CWM successfully, and I'm able to boot to CWM.
I attempted to flash the CM10 builds from these boards, and it errors out with a build.prop thing and refuses to install the package.
Am I bricked without ever making even 1 phone call on my new phone? ..
You are not bricked. If you were bricked you would not be able to get into CWM.
What ROM did you try to install and can you still see it from CWM?
Also which CWM did you install? I think the version of CWM is probably the issue with CM10, just a guess.
Can you get in to download mode?
Also, what version of the Galaxy Note do you have? I717 or what?
From what I've seen all cmw versions posted on the board are too old to flash cm10.
Flashing cmw and then booting up to install/download/flash ROM manager and the latest version of cmw will fix the cm10 problem. But if you attempted to flash a cmw tar and it got stuck at the boot screen you likely flashed the wrong version for your os.

I flashed a factor(?) build. It's an old gingerbread. Booted up. Tried to run Kies. It, of course, told me to fly a kite. Ran the pda.tar again and it installed a kernel, succesfully, that then allowed me to install superuser. Then I flashed my CWM again. It works. Just did a backup.
When I try to use it to install CM10, i get a status 7 error. I'm using the 4-14-2012 touch recover found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1584576
From what I'm gathering from your post, if I install ROM Manager, it will update me to a better CWM, and that CWM will flash CM10 without status 7ing on me?
Thanks for the quick responses guys. I've done a number of Droid's, nexus 7, and my Acer a500, but I'm new to Odin. The thought of bricking a phone without owning it 3 hours had me in a panic.

I don't believe your Note is bricked. This thing seems to be bullet proof.

One last thing if you want Adobe flash to work in your browser (i.e. Dolphin) you have to stay with ICS builds. Adobe stop supporting Android after 4.0.X releases.

Nothing wrong with ROM manager and I've never had an issue with it on the note. It does only flash newer cwm on ICS and doesn't seem to support gb well but that is easily bypassed.

I did...tried to download the latest CWM from there...and flash it using ROM manager, but it seems to give some sort of error .....
opening package....
then...file not found or something....
BTW just having ROM manager setup to use recovery enough? I do have the normal reboot into recovery options etc (long press of power button)...
Also when I open the ROM manager, i get a message saying there is an update available for clockworkmod recovery...i press ok and nothing happens...dont know how to update it....
Maybe a bad download. Did you try downloading it a second time and trying?
As far as possible, stick to using the long-press power method to get into recovery. And do you have a custom kernel? Even most ROMs now give you the option to install a kernel which comes with an inbuilt version of CWM recovery. So unless you're using a really outdated version of CWM, don't worry about upgrading it.

Am using the the supernexus JB build 4 along with its custom kernel which doesnt have CWM recovery...
Was earlier on AOKP JB with Siyah kernel which had the CWM built in like you said....
But i guess i am losing no functionality by not upgrading so its fine I guess like you said....as long as I can make back-ups and restore them and flash new stuff....
BTW I did download more than once (tried both touch version and non touch versions...so guess not an issue with the download)....
Problem Solved. Found the correct version of recovery and bootloader. 4.2.2 roms will now install. Thank you to those who were willing to help. Now that I have educated myself on this tablet, I will begin developing for it.

Good morning everyone
Just yesterday, I chose to update my tablet to one of the xda posted JB roms. I'm coming from an ics build 38 AOKP that I've been on for several months.
After I'd confirmed a successful download, I performed all the necessary cleaning procedures pre-flash, flashed the rom, and was stuck at the splash screen.
So I went back to the ics build and attempted the same with a cm-10.1 build with the same effect. Upon asking the first developer for advice flashing his rom, I was advised to update my recovery which was an older 5.x version of CWM to which another member directed me to the latest version.
Prior to this, I had attempted to use rommanager to update the recovery. During that process something happened in which the device rebooted and froze at the splash screen. I attempted a reboot into recovery via power+volume down and when selecting recovery, I only got a black screen.
So I took the Odin route and dropped the latest cwm tar.md5 through pda in download mode which allowed me to freely re-enter the rom and reboot without issues. However I still only have a black screen when attempting to get into recovery.
Any advice on how I would be able to restore my custom recovery without returning everything to factory images and starting over?
Thank you to those willing to spend the time and effort to help me solve this problem.

I misread what you said. Apparently you've got your rom installed but recovery isn't working, correct?
I had no problems on my 7510 using CWM v5.5.0.4 and with CWM Touch 5.8.3.1 - either of those should work if you flash them with ODIN or Mobile ODIN.

Ok cool I'll give 5.8.3.1 a try if I can find it. So, in my reading I was under the assumption that cwm recovery needed to be above 6.x.x for use with 4.2.2 jb roms. Are you currently or have been on a 4.2.2 rom with your tablet using the recoveries that work for you?

No, I've never tried any JB roms, so I didn't need the latest CWM. If nothing else, trying a different known-working CWM will at least prove that you're able to flash recovery and have it working.. then you can go find a 6.x recovery for the Tab 10.1.
Progress Report
So I managed to shell instal a version of TWRP and the recovery works perfectly! However, I am unable to use any roms except aokp ics (milestone6) lol
Could this be a recovery issue? Still somewhat unfamiliar with the Tab 10.1, I assumed there was an hboot that I could access to flash a recovery image but all reboot attempts into hboot (4.0.4) ended in a simple reboot.
Back to recoveries however, I attempted to flash different versions of CWM tars through Odin3 v1.85 and they all ended in solid black screens. Somewhat at a loss as only the Milestone 6 aokp build is accepted to my tablet and no other ics or jb builds. Somewhat off topic, is there no requirement to RUU upgrade the firmware to something later in order for the table to accept newer recoveries and hboots?

So I was pretty determined to get Cm 10.1 running on my Galaxy Note 2 for Verizon. Before hand, I was using TWRP to do all my ROM flashings but when I tried to use CM 10.1, I was told I must use CWM for it to work properly.
Here's my issue, I tried using CWM but it kept on giving me an error and after searching for awhile, it said its because I'm trying to use TWRP instead of CWM. So I flashed CWM and it gave me the same error. Tried both Touch and regular, downgraded and upgraded to the latest CWM but still same error. So I said **** it and installed the lastest TWRP. Then all the ROMs that were giving me issues started to install flawlessly. Then I went to CWM and it gave me the same error.
Am I doing something wrong when I flash CWM? I tried both Odin and APP Update way and both with same results. After using TWRP for awhile, I actually am starting to like the CWM Touch a lot better and I want to switch but not if its going to be giving me problems every flash.
Any insight would be helpful,
and as always to everyone on this forum, thanks
Just make sure you are using the latest version of TWRP 2.5 and you will be fine. You also may need to re-download your ROM file.
Well I am, in a way, stuck using the TWRP right now but I would like to know if I can actually change it to CWM. And if so, how would I go about doing that? because flashing the CWM alone isn't doing anything for me.

That is the way I have always gone about getting CWM on my phone back when I wanted it. I would just flash over TWRP in TWRP and then reboot system and then reboot back into recovery and it would always be CWM. If it doesnt work for you that way then see if they have a Odin tar and if so follow the instructions to flash it in Odin. They may not have an Odin flashable though, its been a long time since I have used it and on a different phone so....

Let me actually rephrase this. (My bad for any confusion)
So if I try to flash a rom using TWRP, it goes through without any issues, even the CM rom. But when I flash CWM and try flashing, it gives me the getdevice-"(t0vzwte)"-not exact".. When researching, I was kept on told its because it is running TWRP. I tell them its CWM and they told me to update my CWM. I actually like CWM a bit better, idk why. but I was just trying to get my phone 100% the way I want it.
