Save yourself some trouble and go directly to twrp. You will have less issues when you go to recover.

Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1615990 follow the fastboot flash method you should be fine. This should have been posted in Q &A for next time.....
Since you did not unlock it before installing CMW it probably didnt even flash.
Would explain why you cant get in.
As people said use TWRP version 2.2.0.0 (for the newer version you first need the nvflash bootloader) instead. Its better on the prime then CMW.
You can install it via fast boot which is in the android sdk.
PS: CMW backup does not work, the developer doesn't seem to care.
He is probably not holding the volume down key while holding the power key then waiting for the message that says push volume up key to boot into recovery.
You can't boot directly into recovery as far as I'm aware.
The above post didn't explain that very well.

Twrp is better.... if you go the nvflash path.... it is worth it.... just for the peace of mind.

Can't get into Fastboot. Boots into Recovery directly to CWM. Also tried pushing via ADB, TF201 not found.

So im stuck guys.
I wiped everything (of course)
I was bout to flash a ROM in TeamWins recovery
but it didnt read it (due to scripting i guess)
So i Rebooted to flash a different recovery (CWM)
but since i wiped my system, there is nothing on my phone.
So i tried to get into recovery to nandroid (vol up +power)
But it wouldnt put in to recovery, just power on.

Quick boot from the market works great. Hope that helps
After installing .21 when I try to enter recovery mode I get this error. My device is unlocked and not rooted.
And the recovery you flashed was?
I get the same error on my prime. I was on .21 and followed the downgrade to .15 unlock and root procedure. The recovery installed is TWRP
Any help please
Try to flash cwm touch, if that worked then flash twrp with it
Sent from my sgs2 running cm9
I've flashed latest cwm through Rom manager and I still get the same error
Try fastboot. A few months back I unlocked too and I flashed normal cwm and I had the same problem. I fixed it by flashing cwm touch. You could also flash any custom kernel with fastboot.

I downgraded to .15 and flashed CMW again and it worked!!
Cant get into recovery mode
My tf-201 is rooted and unlocked. I cannot get into recovery mode.
I have tried holding the power and volume down button to no avail. I have tried, ROM manager as well as goo manager and it only leads me to the dead droid on his back. I dont know what else to try. I have spent the days looking for answers on the web as well as here and am needing some help please.

'adb reboot recovery' ?
On the device?
'su'
'reboot recovery'
Not sure if these wont mess stuff up (recovery bootloop) on the prime. Works fine on my nexus and on my prime, but my prime isnt unlocked.
Last resort: reflash recovery with fastboot

Thank you for your response. I tried su and recovery reboot. It did just a basic reboot. I have also tried fastboot pro to no avail. Doesnt seem to matter what I try, all i can do is a basic reboot. no recovery extremely frustrating.

You may have done this correctly, but just in case.....
Volume down + power
Until you see the three lines of text
Immediately release both buttons and press Volume up
Yup, tried it several times. Problem is I never get the three lines of text. Thanks though.

fastboot pro is just another app I assumed would help me boot into recovery mode.

Reflash recovery through fastboot

I was having the same problem with not being able to boot to recovery, if you are still having the issue this is what fixed it for me-- re-flash ClockworkMod Recovery to the non-touch version (v5.8.2.0) and then do the boot:
Volume down + power
Until you see the three lines of text
Immediately release both buttons and press Volume up
Good luck.
So.. I was using my phone normally .. but suddenly my phone went very very slow and then I turned off... I was running Unnamed rom.
But here is the deal , the phone didnt woke up! I mean , The phone got stucked into a boot loop , So I treid to enter into recovery with no luck!... Then I managed to go into download mode without any problem.
So after that I restored the phone to stock (One click root odin) . BUT the phone is still showing the Galaxy S Screen Boot loop.
HELP!
I´ve tried many things.. 2 Laptops and PC´s , ports , etc.. I also removed the sim card and the micro sd , but that didnt do anything.
So , any suggestion?
PS: Sorry 4 my english
I'm going to assume that you flashed UCKH7, either the stock without root, or the stock with root one click downloader. If you flashed something different than one of these, let me know.
Since you flashed the stock package successfully, you should now be able to get into 3e recovery by holding vol+ vol- and power buttons. Once in 3e recovery, you should do a wipe data/factory reset and your phone should then boot normally.
If you are unable to get into 3e recovery, then there is some sort of unusual problem, so post back here and we'll try to find out what it is.

If you can't get into recovery using the three button technique then there is something seriously wrong with your phone.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Yes... I'm thinking possible hardware issue. But since you can still get download mode, I'd try flashing the full stock package which you can get from the Download Repository. The one you already flashed did not contain the bootloaders and other stuff. If that doesn't clear it up, then I'm thinking repair or replace.
Noob question.. Where I can find the download repository?
thanks

Ah, that thread worked for me too! I didn't realize I could still issue ADB commands while it was booted to CWM. "adb reboot bootloader" was exactly what I needed!
Hi guys,
Yesterday I finally got to instal a new ROM onto my phone. I've done this before so my phone was already rooted and had the bootloader unlocked. I decided t ogo with Cyanogenmod10. My build was 4.1.B.0.587. I used the tutorial on cyanogenmod wiki and done everything as was said, step by step. I wasn't sure if ClockworkMod would be installed with the rom, so I donwload x-tools and isntalled it form there. Once thaat was done I proceeded to installiion. Everything went fine up until getting into CWM. I am now stuck in a boot loop, constaltly showing the xpera free project logo, then the screen goes dark and this all over and over again. So I searched the net and forums, but couldn't find any one with this problem. Most people either get into CWM and from there can't get further, or they turned the phone on adn after using some application theirs system crashes, but nobody seems to have problems with CWM. I can't get anywhere from here and have no idea what to do. If somebody could please help me, I would be very gratefull! Thanks

Hmmm...CWM is already available as built-in inside the custom kernel...no need to install recovery using x-tools anymore...just flash the kernel (boot.img) using flashtool...

you have to wait until the LED appears then you can press volume down (you can also try volume up or power button) to enter recovery....but i suggest you flash stock rom back first and make sure that your phone can boot fine...then flash custom kernel and flash CM10 in recovery...

WTF... So I charged my phone first so I reach the recommended 85%... Meanwhile I redownloaded the CM10 if it wasn't a bad downnload or something, from the original website. Once that was done, I turned my phone off, turned flashtool on a connected my phone in fastboot mode. I then flashed the kernel with boot.img from CM, unplugged and turned the phone off, waitign for the logo, pressed the volume down button many times and ntohing. I tried multiple times, different buttons too. Still the same. What can I be doing wrong?

When I have the phone flashed with stock kernel I can get into the CMW recovery. Trying to install CM with the stock kernel is i guess not a good idea right?
EDIT: So I tried downloading CW9 if that wouldn't make a difference, but it's the same story. Once I boot the phone it just keeps looping from the logo to black screen, no LED lights up, nothing. What if I did a factory reset either from CWM or in the normally booted? Could that help in anyway?

Hmmmm...how many times did i have to tell you, you need to FLASH STOCK ROM first...stock rom has stock kernel inside it...flashing STOCK rom will factory reset your phone...it should make your phone like new...after your phone boot normally then you can flash custom kernel (fxp kernel) and boot into recovery using that kernel...then only then you can flash CM10 into your phone....

probably bcuz u used CWM located in phone storage & deleted it. happens.
to shorten here all, i advice u to use allways kernels (built in) recovery. (forget about xparts its onlx for locked bl ppl)
also if u want to go for a cm (10+) build try LX from here bcuz FXP is NO longer supported! they kleave us. also its very outdated/old/bad
if u flash (any) kernel CWM is inbuilt, so just reflash the kernel using fastboot (cmd commands) , then on power on press the vol up button moretimes!! to enter CWM (must work) i really advice u to use some LX build. (dont forget to wipe partitions bfore flash)

Okay guys, I'm really confused right now. I just couldn't manage to boot into CWM with CM, I tried many versions, none worked. I then applied the exact same steps onto LX and it worked perfectly, I was in CWM after pressing the volume down butto na few times. Now it's been almost a month since I did this and I wanted to change to a differet version again, so I wanted to try CM again, but it's the same thing, I can't get to CWM. Any ideas?
Thanks
