Just re-download the recovery and re-install it should work...if it doesn't let me know..if it does then sweetness...also always remember to unchecked fastboot in settings if your going into recovery by powering off and the holding power+volume down

What ROM are you running? I remember reading Synergy was having that issue for awhile, but I haven't been on that ROM in a long time so not sure if they fixed it. There is a free app in the market named Quick Reboot that should fix your problem. Give that a try.
Epicbarbeque - we already have a thread for this, it's a sticky in q and a

EDIT... Just noticed your other thread asking the same thing. So I can understand the posts you got here, but since that was also one of the threads where I thought the answer was, your search for qualified assistance may require a bit more effort and politeness on your part, even if others are being rude.
Honestly, if you do a search and read a bit, like the forum rules say to do, before posting, you will find that this has been asked and well answered in another thread where name calling wasn't resorted to. Sorry I don't remember the answer, but I think it was just like flashing any other tab. Don't take that as a legit answer though because my memory fails often. I do know I have seen this asked and answered several other times though.
So for the best results do a search. Really, it works.

Misledz is often a great help. Good to see him post for you cause usually if it can be fixed, it gets fixed with his help. He's who I'd want helping me.
I know how frustrating searching for an answer can be sometimes, so now it's just a matter of patience as we're all in different time zones.

Why thank you good sir Benz
Then again, recovery mode has always been the straightforward thing to do, it's just timing, I did a little research on I/O edition to check for differences and it seems there is not much that's different, the recovery kickup is the same, Vol Down+ Power {When the device is off}, Then again, you shouldn't have USB plugged in when you do it as it conflicts with the key combo.
The thread I linked you describes the same method for kicking it into recovery, he is also an owner of an I/O series, I wish I had one to make it easier but sadly I can't see where your issue lies, but I am willing to stick by till you get this done right, Hope that helps.
Fitz
Thank u guys I really appreciate it..I tried the power + volume key with/without USB plugged in and all that pops up is the downloading mode and USB icon..like I said I've had many Samsung phones and never had a problem lol but I'll update u guys n thanks for the support

Flash the stock 2.3.4 with root and then flash siyah or entropy's kernel for CWM. There's your spoon feeding for the day
Sent from team Pirate! Using Tapatalk 2
Questions belong in the Q&A forum, not general.
Many of the methods will not work. You can flash a custom kernel which injects root (increments the flash counter.) There is a rooted stock ICS in the original development section (does not increment the flash counter.)
No no no! Creepy, they don't want the EASY way dude. Have u learned nothing? They want to update with kies. So they can make a thread about not being able to update with kies. Then make another about the correct drivers and how kies sucks in general. Then they wanna use that for 2 days , find out how bad it sucks, then try and flash back to something else with Odin. Except they can't get Odin to work. New thread time again! Then once they get that spoon feeding goodness they wanna Odin back to stock and flash a new ROM. Except....wait for it....they're getting status 7 errors cause they're trying to flash a ported i9100 rom! New thread baby!!!

No man no I wasn't directing anything at u when I was saying what I said about people not wanting to take the easy way and creating a bunch of threads. I was talking about the loads of people who are already / have done that. Most of us here have inside jokes with one another cause we see each other on here a lot. I would never want anyone to think I don't like them or purposefully hurt someone. Like Nick said u gotta have a thick skin around here, and most of us aren't trying to hurt anyone.

Agreed. It clearly states in both the s-off and unlock threads that it's not for 2.xx. And people are still getting their hands on 1.xx version DNAs, so the info is still valid and needed.

I agree completely, send it off and have it JTAG'd. Turn around time is real quick. Having an unlocked phone is that important to me too so before I buy a phone I do my research and know exactly what I'm getting into. You got lucky with the DNA though because of it having the ability to be unlocked via JTAG. I definitely recommend proceeding it's an amazing phone.
The reason that you're getting a hard time is because a quick google search, site search, or reading through one of the many threads you mentioned seeing would have answered your question. It's nothing personal, and the good thing is that people are quite forgiving around here.

People are forgiving because they're sitting around on their thumbs with 2.04 or 2.06, locked and stocked.

Going by your other post you are already unlocked and rooted. That is the main step you needed to accomplish.
Before doing anything, do research. There are guides everywhere on how to flash roms. YouTube has hundreds of videos that have step by step instructions on what to do.
Research so you have an idea of what is going on, then come back here and ask questions you have. It makes everything a lot easier for you and for people helping if you have a general idea of what is going on.

I think you need to be a little more clear on what you are trying to accomplish. Are you trying to just flash a rom? Or are you trying to use a Verizon I605 on another network?

Honestly you need to look up everything you can about flashing because the more you know the less chance you have of screwing your phone up. Research, read, read, read, if you have questions ask them, then flash or do whatever you want to do.
You can ask for help but you at least need to do your research and reading, otherwise it makes you look lazy.

If that's what you are trying to do, the other thread you posted in has everything you need. Go back there and actually read the information. To me, it looks like you want to be spoon fed everything. That isn't going to be useful down the road when you screw something up and have no idea what to do.
