I was about to flash a new rom. so I went to "install via zip file" blah blah
entered the folders. then I suddenly realized that I don't have the file on my tab YET.
I can't figure out how to go back to the first part of cwm.
I'm stuck deep inside the folders.
and btw it says on my tab
"Back menu button disabled."
SOLVED : Keep clicking back button to have the "back menu button" enabled. "

hello, I need some help. I have rooted my fascinate, but everytime i try and back it up in ROM manager, i get a message after the backup utility starts saying that file not found aborted in red letters. i got odin red recovery as suggested and tried that but it still gives me that error. i want to be able to back it up so i can download some more roms. phone is working fine, just not able to back up
Just backup in Red recovery. Don't use rom manager.
can u give me a little more info on how to do this
Boot to recovery by
1- power off phone, then hold volume up and down then power phone on continuing to hold the volume keys
2- if you are in "red recovery continue to next step. If not in red, choose "apply update.zip"
3- use volume keys to navigate up or down In recovery. Choose "backup and restore" then use power button to select
4- choose backup.
5- wait for backup to finish.
So I just flashed the Phone Bricker ROM and now I went back into CWM so I could theme, so when I get into CWM, I can still scroll up and down with the volume buttons, but when I try to select an option like "wipe cache" or "install zip from sdcard" the screen just flashes quickly and nothing happens + brings me back up to the first option (reboot). Any solutions? Couldn't find anything
edit ;nvm fixed. can select with power button now
Hi So I am stuck in download mode when I tried to root my Fascinate with odin today it got a fail 1 success 0. I have tried holding down the power button for 10 seconds and a battery pull to no avail. Help would be greatly appreciated.
I would suggest that you get a .pit and re partition while you are going back to stock.

Thank you for responding but I have not rooted yet the problem occurred when I was trying to root.
are you following the [GUIDE] from droidstyle?? Section 6
Section 6: How to root stock froyo or gingerbread(This is not needed if your flashing a custom rom)
Downloads these files to PC,
Samsung drivers-
Odin (computer program)-
CWMALL 2.5 (place this file somewhere on your computer where you can easily locate it)-
"su-2.3.6.1.x.zip" file (place this file on the root of your sdcard...not within any folders)-
Modified stock Froyo kernel (place this file somewhere on your computer where you can easily locate it). This file is only necessary if you're rooting Froyo. It's not necessary for Gingerbread-
Instructions:
1. Install Samsung drivers on your computer.
2. Open Odin on your computer. (You may need to disable antivirus programs on your computer and/or phone for this to work properly.)
3. Power off your phone and remove the battery.
4. Plug the stock USB cord that came with your phone into a powered USB port on your computer (usually on the back of the computer).
5. Press and hold the "volume down" button on your phone, and continue to hold it while plugging the USB cord into your phone. This will put your phone into download mode. You'll see a large yellow triangle on the screen of your phone. (Let go of the volume button at this point.) You will also see one of the small boxes in Odin turn yellow, as well as "Added" appearing in the message box.
6. Click the PDA button in Odin (NOT the PHONE button) and navigate to the "CWM2.5_Voodoo.tar.md5" file you downloaded earlier. This file does not include a voodoo kernel and will not perform the voodoo lagfix conversion. It's only named as such to note that it is compatible with voodoo kernels.(make sure auto reboot is unchecked, although it should be by default)
7. Click START. When this process has finished, you'll be notified in Odin (succeeded 1 / failed 0) and your phone's screen will go blank.
*** Step 8 is only for rooting Froyo. If you're rooting Gingerbread, skip Step 8 and proceed to Step 9. ***
8. Unplug your phone and click RESET in Odin. Repeat Step 5 to get the phone back into download mode and recognized by Odin. Using the PDA button, navigate to the "stock_kernel.tar.md5" file you downloaded earlier, select it, and press START. You'll again be notified in Odin once this process has completed (succeeded 1 / failed 0).
9. Unplug your phone and re-insert the battery.
10. Press and hold BOTH volume buttons. While holding them, press the power button. Hold all three simultaneously until you see "SAMSUNG" appear TWICE. This will boot your phone into CWM 2.5 red recovery. If your phone boots up normally here and not into recovery, just wait for it to boot up and then power it down and try again. It may take a couple tries for you to get it right.
11. Using the volume rocker, navigate down to "Install zip from sdcard." Highlight it and press the power button to select.
12. Navigate to "choose zip from sdcard" and select with the power button.
13. Navigate to the "su-2.3.6.1.x.zip" file that you downloaded earlier and select it. Scroll to "Yes," and use power button to select.
14. When you're advised of completion, press the MENU softkey to go back to the previous CWM Recovery screen, then highlight and select "reboot system now."

Hello,
I just bought ME176c. Not rooted yet. I try to go into boot menu "Power button & (+) button" then i select "Recovery".
After i select "recovery" there is a dead android image saying "no command" and nothing else. Why i can't go into the recovery mode?

Summary - After two weeks of research (mostly on XDA) I took the risk and decided to root my new Samsung M30. Suffice to say I was extremely apprehensive given numerous reports of bootloops, recurring seven day OEM device locks, crashes, hangs and general instability. After following specific steps that combine several sources, I successfully rooted my device. Moreover, key root applications are all working well (AFWall+ Firewall, AdAway, Root Explorer)! This guide shows what I did.
