[Q] CWM Recovery reverts to Stock Recovery after rebooting. - Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830i. I had no problem with rooting it, and am able to use Superuser and other root apps perfectly, but when i try to flash CWM on it, either from the ROMManager app, or from a zip file, it only displays CWM immediately after i flash it, but then the moment i press Reboot Now,and go back to the Recovery, i notice that it has reverted to the stock recovery. I have tried many different CWM recovery files, but it always works only for that one time, and then reverts to stock after reboot. I am using a stock ROM since i cannot flash Cyanogenmod until i get CWM to 'stick'. What do i do?

I ended up using Simplicity v5 with Hell Fusion's Kernel. Thanks for the ROM Abhi922!
This basically solved my issue. Thanks for all your help guys!

We know who's noob

Sorry guys I killed my ace I think he would have committed a suicide cos ur a bad developer
Ohh I got a new one
Then starts a rom I think miui and discontinues it also after a update
Sorry guys I can't continue it
don't know why
Spamming the development section
Sorry for the flaming but he started not on me but on a great developer who's rom is the best here (sorry for claiming that too)

[Q] [HELP] Official LG Updater over ClockWorkMod Recovery

I have an LG Optimus One running 2.2.2 latest firmware V10e. Recently, I rooted my device and installed ClockWorkMod Recovery and the Lagfix+OC Kernel by der_caverman. I am using the Stock ROM with that Kernel.
My question is when the official Gingerbread Update comes out by LG, will I be able to update it with the official LG software updater or will it not work because I have ClockWorkMod Recovery installed.
If not, how can I remove ClockWorkMod Recovery get my original Recovery Back???
any help would be appreciated!

nope. you can upgrade at any time if u are staying with ur oem rom even if u are rooted. only thing is that u will lose ur root previllage after the update.
its alwayes advisable to have a custom recovery and custom rom. cause it can take nandroid backups(will save your day if anything goes wrong)

Can you please tell me can I upgrade without doing anything??? I have rooted my phone and installed AmonRa recovery, and I'm on stock rom 2.2.2 10e (I have just flashed some framework that I made on UOT kitchen).

it is risky since you have changed the frame work.if i were you i will do the following.
1)unroot the phone( if u have used gingerbreak use the same to unroot)
2)down load the original recovery from http://www.megaupload.com/?f=XGKNWZQJ and flash. thus u can getrid of amonra and get back original p500 recovery
3)reboot and hard reset and upgrade.
4) since u are now on original recovery and in unrooted condition if any thing goes wrong u can claim warrenty.
let me ask u why u need an upgrade? to get lot of crapwares? or to get amere 600mhz kernal? or to get a laggy phone with mere 60 mb of internal storage space to install all ur apps? or to have adds on every apps?

Thanks for your answer!
And I understand you when you ask me why do I need official update, because I agree that official rom = creap And thats why the first thing that I have done when I rooted my phone was to uninstall all the bloatware from it
I will for sure flash miks rom when he base it on official gingerbread, and if I have a little time for weekend current mod that you recommended (I only hesitate because of the bugs - I know there are just a couple of them, but...). I tried yesterday francos kernel v151, but I'm experiencing color bending in lower half of a screen with it...

yes its a flashable unsigned zip.but if u r using amonra to flash( cause it is unsigned) u have to uncheck the option "toggle signature verify" first.Amonra wont allow u to flash unsigned zips unless u do the above.
ps:if original recovery is flashed u will lose all the options in amonra and the only option will be the hard reset option.
there is a good how to section if u wish...

Ur file system is ext4 now and stock Roms require rfs file system ...
Just flash a stock rom first, then restore your backup
P.S. confirm that the stock rom or custom rom based on stock u flash has rfs file system
Edit: or try to do a "wipe cache partition " if this doesn't work follow the above steps
well i guess that can be the problem. xperiatized is based on ext4 partirion system. and i've tried wiping cache but didn't worked.
i guess i have to flash rom through odin then :-(

But why do u want stock rom again? ?
Have u heard of an awesome rom called CM7 ?
yes man....one can't be so silly not knowing about cm ;-)
and does it mean that i will not be able to restore my stock rom again as almost all roms are based on ext4 partition?
You got the wrong file format, reflash stock via odin then try restore. Wipe cache after that

Lol I was just recommending cm7 ....dude u flash a stock rom via Odin first then root your phone again ( yes root access will get wiped by flashing stock rom) then install cwm and restore your backup ( if it has some important data it doesn't make sense to take all this trouble otherwise )

after restoring your backup, restore BOOT from a cm7 rom
I'm having the same problem, if i do a factory reset from Clockwork recovery,it will give me stock rom? I don't really want to use my pc when i'm going to turn back to stock because of possible usb/connection problems..
Try using stocklite, its DDKQ8. I like that rom a lot. Good battery life, speed and no bugs as far as i know.
If you don't want to flash it with odin try flashing Stocklite v6 and then restoring the backup

[Q] Can anybody help me ! ?

hey guys.. am still new to the world of ANDROID.. so i need some help please..
i wanted to update my GB Samsung Galaxy SII rom to the ICS rom.. so i wanted to start by rooting..
i rooted my phone and everything went okay and i also removed the Yellow Triangle..
my problem is.. now i want to flash a new rom to my S2..
i booted into recovery mode..
1st problem is that i didn't find a "Backup & Recovery" option as i saw in many videos..
the main problem is that i wiped the cash and the user data
but when i clicked on apply * from sdcard !!
and choosed the rom i've downloaded.. it didn't work.. i had an error saying that E: Signature Verification Failed
so.. and when i wanted to do a recovery using the CWM app.. i didn't find the backup and recovery option
if you have acsess to download mode, then reroot your phone, then you will gain acsess again to recovery & backup.

Sorry, I didn't express myself correctly. I meant you can reflash a stock unrooted firmware (kernel, rom) and then root it again.
okay guys.. am so sorry for the mistake i've made.. my probles was that i was going to the reboot mode using the cwm.. not the up-home-power buttons..
i told you am still new .. i thought they are the same .. anyway...
i recovered the rom with all the apps and everything is okay now.. but
the question is why i can't flash that rom ?? .. even with the right recovery mod it's still doesn't want to be flashed. ??
could it be because of the version of the rom ! ??
and is there a way to know what rom can i flash ??
and i also have a problem.. it's that the samsung kies isn't supporting my device.. i used it once and after rooting my cell it doesnt want to work again.. ??

First off you don't need to be rooted to up grade your firmware. The best source for firmwares is Samfirmware.com where you download a tar. file then flash it in the PDA section of odin. Please read the sticky threads in this forum as there is loads of good advice and guides from expert users. All the best.

Thank you all guys.. i flashed the ICS 4.0.4 firmware to my Galaxy S2 I9100.. and everything is okay..
now i am wondering how to root it ?
is it the same way for the GB?
actually i tried the same way but when i flashed the CF Root --LPH my phone died !! .. i mean it begin restarting every time i turn it on..
my Baseband version is I9100XXLQ6
and the kernal version is I900JPLPH
please send me a link that works..
There are a couple of methods to root. If you only want to root and not bother with custom ROMs, kernels and the like, use Rachmat3's temporary cwm to get root. Search for it.
If you wanna install custom ROMs, you could install a the TAR version of a custom kernel like siyah or dorimanx via Odin. Steps on how to do so can again be found with a simple search.

This should do,
1) Backup everything
2) Install Siyah Kernel (latest: http://www.gokhanmoral.com/?p=1536) using Odin (tar file)
3) Now you are rooted with Siyah Kernel and a CWM based recovery
4) You can then install any ROM/Kernel of your choice (if you need)
But "Search" - There are countless threads

i really dunno how to thank you guys.. everything is working now as i want it to be.. thank you all guys ..

Help needed correct recovery !!

Hi all, ok ive rooted my GS3 and its running 4.1.2 , but my question is that im not sure its going into proper recovery mode as when i put it into recovery it doesnt look like the usual recovery screen !! ie im trying to install the Audio hack zip and flash it but it keeps failing everytime i try, can somebody please help me, also is it because it needs a diferent rom like Omega or something, hope to get some help soon, from

You need to install Custom Recovery first... (CWM or any other)
Rooting only doesn't include CWM...
Use Odin to flash it.
thankyou
Hi and thankyou for that, so when you say i have to install flash a custom recovery, do you mean i have to install a new rom like omega or something ? and yes i do have Odin.

So I started looking for it I found a good thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201860 after installing the CWM it goes right installing ROMs but got stuck into bootloop.
So, if someone can give me the .tar.md5 file I can flash using Odin or maybe another thing to take care of.

Try this steps:
1. Use the method in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2365701) to flash JB stock + root. note that it's better to flash the kernel via recovery after it's on your external sd-card or sideload with adb. This way you don't get the triangle warning and no binary count.
2. Download the kitkat compatible CWM from here: (http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS2/recovery/CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.zip)
3. Flash the CWM and reboot to recovery (advanced -> reboot recovery)
4. Flash your Kitkat rom (with all the necessary wipes of course )

I tried this but I got stuck on boot again, and knowing that the CWM that you gived don't work :/ ( my model is I9100G I think that this is the reason ).
I have read somewhere that maybe the wipe data / factory reset is the source of problem. I am not sure where I am doing wrong
