[Q] Booting into CWM

I can't seem to be able to boot into CWM. I can get to it by Rom Manager, but when I hold VOL UP and press Power it justs boots up. Same with holding Vol up AND down and pressing power. Am I doing something wrong here?
I rooted using this method:

That works, but what if I flash a bad rom, how can I access the recovery?
VolUp + VolDn should work - always works for me.
Specifically:
Hold VolUp + VolDn
Hold Power until the screen turns out
Let go of Power, keep holding VolUp + VolDn until CWM appear

I'm an idiot, I released power too soon everytime, now I get it, thank you all for your patience!
I simply hold both volume buttons along with power until I see the boot log screen appear. Once I see that, I let go of all buttons and I'll get right into CWM.

not sure if i will be of any help or you already figured it out. but what once worked for me is to press power as soon as you see sony logo right away let go and hold volume up only. but quick like. than continue to hold volume up. if not try volume down same direction. i think the button changes if your rooted.

Hey there!
Can you still access "download mode?" Download mode is accessed by holding down the volume decrease button and the home button.
Press the power button, volume decrease button and home button at the same time but letting go of the power button and keep pressing and holding the volume decease and home button while the download mode screen appears. you will know this when you see a green android and a "downloading now" screen.
NOTE: do you have a copy of t-mobile's stock firmware to re-install?

Please help GT-N7000

Please help me. My phone was stuck on the logo screen. I've tried to read posts on how to fix this and I can't understand anything. I've tried to press and hold power+volume up+home, nothing happens but when I try to press and hold power+volume down+home, I'm getting a screen. Please advise
Hi , press again Vol + , Home and Power button at the same time , once you feel vibration just release power button but keep pressing vol + and home button in order to enter into recovery menu . Then navigate with vol - button and go to wipe cache partition one time press power button now go to Wipe data/Factory Reset and again press one time power button and then go to reboot system now .
Thanks for answering. It’s not doing anything when I press Power+Volume Up+Home
Did this issue happen suddenly? Or while trying to flash a ROM or tweaking something else?
