Its my phone Btw and yeah it is gb 2.3.5, btw ive tried some steps i found around in some forums, and none worked so please help me with this issue! Thanks!
Basic recovery comes with those 4 options only so nothing is lost...only CWM has more options
Now...don't ever do a factory reset and wiping cache before installing new rom...when you install a new rom it itself formats them
Again...CUT your rom from sd card to computer and again copy it to your sd card....SAFELY REMOVE and again choose apply update from sd card
If this too didn't work...download a new rom and follow what I've said

I'd really appreciate some help guys, I've searched everywhere but can't seem to find answers.
I had Cyanogen Mod 9 rooted on my phone, however, I decided to install Omega instead, I installed it but I can't get on it! Everytime I install zip and reboot, it goes back to CWM Recovery!
The procedure was:
-deleted all files in internal SD
-Reboot into CWM Recovery
-Wipe data,cache,dalvik
-install zip from sd card
and now im stuck
Please help, and apologies if any noob mistakes were made

You'll lose all your data but do a factory reset and wipe your system in addition to what you've already done and re flash the rom. FYI always have a nandroid backup around before flashing. It's time consuming but saves you a lot of grief in the long run

Factory reset(wipe) is an option in cwm(3rd from above) wipe and reflash the rom and let it boot,this can take 10min
1st check md5 .. it will show u wether its bad download or nt ... and then do this
go into cwm and to wipe data\factory reset wipe cache wipe dalvik and insll rom ..
omega 10 is up so better try omega 10 as its new rom :

Factory reset is on the main Cwm screen. You can wipe system through the 'mounts and storage' option

How would put it into my internal SD if I can't transfer the file because I can only boot into Recovery or Download mode? Do I just Odin it straight in via the PDA option?
If you connect your phone with the PC while in recovery you should be able to use adb commands
Put the rom file into the adb folder than try
Code:
adb devices
now you should see any cryptic combination of letters and numbers in the next row
(if you see a empty row... that wouldn't be nice^^)
then do:
Code:
adb push yourromfile.zip /sdcard/yourromfile.zip
than try flashing again the new file
dont forget to do a full wipe, cache wipe, dalvik wipe, the common procedure^^
PS:
If you don't know about adb, it is installed with the android sdk, but you can download it seperately
place the ADB folder somewhere on you system hd, maybe directly to C:\
the open cmd and type
cd C:\ADB\
now you're able to use the above commands
You can put it on an external sd and flash it from there...

Thank you so much EVERYONE, It all worked out, seems like the original file was corrupted, now running omega 10 smoothly!!!!!!!
While trying to install CM9 onto my phone using instructions given here
Install CM-9 Stable Release
I accidentally forgot to put in the required files into my sd card before starting with the rest of the process.
Now, I'm stuck in a CWM bootloop with no way to put in a kernel file to flash.
I tried mounting a flash drive as an external USB storage. But apparently, that doesn't work in CWM as of now. I'm running v5.5.0.4
So, to summarise, I'm stuck in CWM with no external storage to rely on and no knowledge of how to push in files to my internal memory. Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated!
Fix your phone via sus or pc companion first
But I'm unable to boot. What good would either of these 2 do me?
Have you unlocked your bootloader? Fixing via sus or pc companion will boot up your phone
Use flashtool to flash one of the stock roms to get it back to stock and go from there

Unmount it first, then mount.
What specific problem you have right now? If you experienced bootloop that means you didn't wiped dalvik cache before installing your new ROM. Wiped it first.

sent my wife's rooted atrix in for repair and they sent me back one with 4.5.141 i think it is. Now ive managed to get "unlocked" where it will flash when i boot and i have CWM installed on it but i cant get any rom to boot. I know im overlooking something simple probably but i cant seem to figure it out. If anyone could help i would really appreciate it. And yes i have searched but there is so much conflicting info on here now. Thanks in advance Could someone please give an old atrix user a hand?
I need to know a little more before I see if I can help.
1) Are you on the newest CWM recovery?
2) Did you put the zip file in the root of your storage?
3) Did you remember to wipe data, cache, dalvik before flashing the ROM?
4) What happens when you try to boot the phone up after flashing the ROM?
Sent from that Atrix... Motorola, where's my ICS?!

Probably a corrupted sdcard, save important files to the pc and format the card from the phone. Place the files back, see if you are rooted and if not reroot with CF-Root and try again. Do not superwipe this time.Just do data/factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache and format system and data in mounts and storage.
Hello, sorry for reviving this old thread, but it seems that this would be a logical place to ask if it's recommended to do a super wipe before every non stock ROM flash.

Please I need help guys! I earlier today rooted my Samsung Galaxy S3 international variant i9300. After this I went about to install a custom ROM the Cyanogen Mod 10.1 4.2.2 rom, and to do this I followed the this method on YouTube:
After I completed the installation I it showed the Cyanogen Mod logo which looked amazing but after this I kept getting "unfortunately setup wizard has stopped" and "unfortunately google framework services has stopped". I am sure that I maybe installed the older version of gapps and this is why this is happening. How can I fix this issue?
Please help! I have tried almost everything!

flash CWM touch recovery(latest ones) via desktop odin. then put your CM10.1 and latest gapps .zip files on your sdcard. reboot into CWM touch recovery and then flash the files after wiping data, cache and dalvik cahce!

To get phone up and running on cm:
-Re-download cm and respective gapps
-Turn off your phone
-Turn your phone on into recovery by pressing power+center+vol down (when the phone boots release power) and you'll be on cwm
-conect your phone to pc
-on cwm go to advanced settings
- mount usb storage
- phone will apear on pc, copy rom and gapps
- once done return to main "page" of cwm and wipe data/factory reset
- then install zip and select the rom zip first after zip is installed install gaps
