Once you've installed CWM recovery i suggest you to install Rom manager to restart your phone directly to recovery mode...:fingers-crossed:
you have the cwm ? if not, download rom manager, and download your respective cwm, or flash one by the internet

My samsung i5500 wont boot normally so I want to try booting it into recovery and reseting it. Ive tried power, centre key and volume down. which I thought was the recovery combination but it just comes up with an icon saying downloading and does nothing.
If anyone else knows a recovery combination or another way to fix it please comment
according to a post here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-781149.html
It's the volume down, then center key, then power. Make sure your not letting go after pressing them in that order... Order is important if you were doing power, center then volume down it will not work in that order.
I'm also trying to get into recovery mode to clear the dalvik cache and I'm stuck on the same downloading screen. I connected the usb cable, waited 5 minutes, started kies, waited 5 more minutes. What needs to be done on the downloading screen?

There is no key combination for this device.
In order to get to Recovery you need to boot Android, enable USB Debug Mode. Then connect to PC via USB cable, open ADB and type "adb reboot recovery"
If you cant boot into Android you'll need to flash recovery with Odin and it'll boot into Recovery after flashing.
also if using CM7 you can choose to boot into recovery when restarting phone.
If there is a way to boot to Recovery from download mode please someone explain how.

On my GT-I5500M, after installing CWM via Odin, from powered-off state, I can press and hold Volume Down, Start Call, End Call (3 buttons simultaneously), hold 'em past the Samsung boot screen, and you eventually get into Recovery mode without going into Download mode. YMMV but it works for me.

Hi,
I have the same problem as the author of the topic, my galaxy GT-I5500 doesn't turn on, it's on an unlimited boot loop, i can enter on Downloading mode, but if i connect the phone to the computer, the computer doesn't recognize the phone (probably because of lack of driver's), so, i can't access ADB or Odin, or do anything, could you please help me ?
best regards!

Can I get into recovery mode without a working home button? My i9100 has a faulty home button, phone is stuck on a bootloop will not get pass the samsung logo screen. I can flash the phone in odin with a stock rom and finish with success but still get stuck on bootloop. I think if I can get into recovery to wipe data then the phone will boot all the way. Any help is appreciated. I've searched but have found nothing solid. Thanks!
Buy a usb jig off ebay. plug it in then turn your phone on and it will put it into download mode.
e.g.

well i guess hes already got a jig. was wondering how he got in download mode with a broken home
I can get into download mode by pressing and holding volume down + pressing and releasing power but still holding volume down when turning the phone on. But my question is, how do I get into recovery without home button?
Flash a matching Chainfire CF root kernel via Odin (phone in DL mode). This with install his Cwm app. Once rebooted, run app (give su permission), and choose to boot into either clockwork recovery, dl mode, or reboot.
Edit: But once in recovery, how do you plan to actually select anything when the home button doesn't work? ? ?

He cant boot up, he's stuck at boot logo so no way to use the cwm from chainfire
Oh dear without the home button it's hard to operate the phone. I think you can boot into recovery mode by using ADB, search on the forums or Google.
I would rather you have the home button replaced ot fixed.
Cheers!

Use can use QtADB to get into recovery - just tried, it works. But the option "flash zip" doesn't work, and of course,................
how do you plan to "select" anything if the home button doesn't work? ? ? Can't think of any way just yet.

If you have adb setup, and know how to use it;
1. Copy the Custom ROM.zip to your sdcard folder on the phone
2. Rename to "update.zip"
3. Run CMD and navigate to the sdk tool folder where adb.exe is
4. Run "adb reboot recovery" to enter recovery mode
5. Phone to boots into recovery screen
6. "apply: /sdcard/update.zip"
7. After finish, reboot into new ROM
Haven't tried it myself though on the SGS2 ..............
tried it, didn't work..
Lost my Home button after odin flash HELP
I am stuck a i9100 that has no home working home button after i botched my first odin flash. I can not seem to get the device to be recognized by ADB or ODIN now that its messed up. I can boot into the Android Recovery System e3, and i can move up and down in the menu, but the 'home' button i used to select options no longer works. I can not get it to boot out of that menu.
This is a Sprint branded i9100 from the United States... tho when i got it, it was already 'rooted' with Gingerbread-Eg30 however it did not state the firmware version. So after i used ODIN to ref lash it... it rebooted and killed my home key... Now i am not sure what to do. ADB is not finding the device listed and I can't seem to get it to take a rom. Any suggestions?
Prior to flashing this rom in odin i had a working home key which was used as part of the 3 button combo to ender flashing mode or to select an option in the stock recovery menu.
Any help would be great!
Flash a full wipe rom like stock in download mode that should fix it.

I am having the same problem. My I9100's home button doesn't work. I had cyanogenmod 10.1 and cwm recovery installed. Used the button saviour app to operate a virtual home button on screen. Updated to cyanogenmod 10.2. nightly yesterday. All seemed working. Today I found that some apps like Google Play and ROM Manager would crash on when started. So I thought I go back to cyanogenmod 10.1. Started the installation of 10.1 from the "about this phone" settings because ROM Manager crashed and I couldn't boot into recovery from the crashing ROM Manager.
So, I now flashed a stock firmware from samfirmware.com with ODIN (because I can get into download mode with the USB-Jig), but that stock rom stucks in a boot loop.
Any suggestions? I believe, I am stuck in boot loop because I couldn't wipe the phone before flashing. Is there any way to wipe it in download mode?
Or can you be more specific, how to flash a "full wipe rom" and post a link where I can download such a rom?
1. Don't use rom manager on i9100, sure way to screw things up /brick.
2. Get the hardware sorted before you muck around with software. As you have found out, it's easy to get into a situation where you need the hardware to function correctly.
3. Download JB leak (stock firmware) from samfirmware and flash it via Odin. It's a 3 part firmware, and will wipe as it flashes.

you can try to go to recovery using adb or terminal emulator

clockworkmod recovery will work after u flash it.
