Download a ROM for your S3 that you know will work (Stock Samsung or CM10 or something stable) from the S3 Android Development section (Should be a zip file).
Copy it to your SD Card and reboot into ClockworkMod Recovery.
Then backup everything by selecting "Backup And Restore"> "Backup".
Then select Format Dalvik and Format Cache, then go into Mounts and Storage and format your /System.
After this return to the main menu and install the ROM you downloaded earlier.

As soon as I turn on my Galaxy S II on it boots directly into recovery. WOrst of all the power button. CWM won't let me choose reboot or anything when I press the power button. HELPP!!!
So can we get a little info as to what you were doing before this happened, such as were you rooting/flashing a rom?
Also the power button is of no use in CWM, use the home button to select items
And finally this is in the wrong thread!
Softkeys

Here you go, this is the best solution to your problem:
CWM Recovery Menu buttons layout.
Home Softkey = Selects
Back Softkey = Go Back
Vol+/Vol- = scroll up and down
Good luck!
Power button is now for BACK
use Home to select
When /system does not contain a working ROM, the phone boots to recovery. Just adb push a rom to internal SD and flash it.
Not development...
Hi there,
I'm fairly new to Android and in this week, I managed to root my Galaxy Tab 10.1 (P7500) with ICS - so I'm glad that worked out
Now, I really want to install the "voice call mod" for my stock ICS - original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1875024
But can someone please give me detailed steps, as I have no idea how to "Make the Recommended Backup", How to install the two files and how to wipe the cache.
I do know how to go to Recovery Mode - If I understand correctly, that is when I power off my tab and then power it on, by pressing on the Power button + Volume Down - then press Volume Down and then Volume Up to access Recovery Mode?
Can someone please elaborate on this for me, so that I can also install this without "breaking" or "bricking" my tablet LOL
Thanks so much!
To get into recovery, power your tab off.
Then, hold down the volume down button and the power button until you see the Galaxy Tab splash screen. You can then release the power button, but continue holding down the volume down button.
Eventually, you'll get a screen with two icons - a box on the left with an arrow exiting the top (recovery) and a flashing Android with the word "Downloading" below it. Release the volume down button.
Now, use the volume down button to move the blinking highlight to the left. That's the recovery icon. Once it's blinking, press the volume up button to select it. Volume down will move the selection back and forth.
after success entering recovery mode there an option to do backup..
then do ur backup from this option..
after that u can proceed flasing what ever u need..
I know what to do, but How?

Hi, Thanks for the update. I know how to do this part, but when I enter recovery mode, all I see is:
1 Reboot
2 Install from External Storage
3 Wipe data/Factory Settings
4 Wipe Cache Partition
etc etc
Where do I go to do the Backup and where do I then go to install those two files of the " voice call mod"? And then, how do I wipe the cache?
Can you please explain these parts to me - The page for the voice call mod gives the instructions as to what to do, but I want to know "how" to do it.
Thanks so much

So if I understand correctly, I should then use an APP to make the backup - like Titanium Backup - so the backup is not done in Recovery Mode?
Then after that, I go to recovery mode and install the "modem" files and wipe the cache?
So, how do I then install the files and wipe the cache...Can you please give exact steps as to what to do and how for each of these steps.
Thanks
Rom manager app can do backup your current ROM.

Hi, I installed new rom ([JB] [P4--P4WIFI--P4VZW] 4.1.2 AOKP), but i didnt canceled the security of lockscreen with PIN. After install old PIN doesnt work and i dont have access to my tablet. Version of my recovery is: Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP) - 2.3.1.1.
holding power and volum down button redirect me to download menu
holding power and volume up button just reset tablet
what i must do now?
pls any ideas how to get to recovery menu?
It doesn't make sense that you wouldn't be able to access recovery on a hard reset unless you're using the wrong key combination.
Hold Power and Volume down which is right next to power, and keep holding them until you see the Galaxy tab logo. Then let go of Power ONLY and keep holding volume down. That should result in two options...recovery on the left, and download on the right. Let go of volume down as soon as you see the two icons, then press volume down once to select recovery, then volume up to select it.
Good luck!

I bought a phone from China - JiaYu G4s. It came with Android 4.2.2, so I decided to install kitkat. Kitkat worked well, but I knew it is not enough. I found Cyanogenmod 12.1 for that phone. I installed it, but forgot to wipe /data and /cache and it was crashing. I tried to access recovery, but I didn't know how (Clockworkmod recovery carliv 4.4, I had a custom ROM, where when I long pressed power buttom, there was a option to reboot in recovery). My preloader never worked, so I couldn't access files from computer. So I rebooted my phone and in setting press factory reset. My phone rebooted to recovery and a sign "Processing" appeared. But It crashed and I had to reboot my phone. Now I'm stuck in boot animation, I can't go recovery, I can't access my phone from computer. I can't do anything (I think so). Can someone help me?
Power off your device then try these buttons one by one to enter recovery
1. Power button + Volume up + volume down(this one should work)
2.Power button + Volume Down
3.Power button + Volume Up
Try volume down + power button to enter the fastboot mode and flash your recovery or rom again
