Do u have a backup!
Then restore it
Flash another version of cwm(V5 or V6)
If u r getting errors, in cwm go to mounts and storage
Select mount/sd card
Reboot
I think this should fix ur problem
Hit thanks if i helped

as far as gaming is concerned cm7,open optimus,franco built are all good.
which recovery have u installed ?
cm7 provides around 36 hours battery
open optimus around 42 hours

since you are not aware of recovery and you want to use cm7 just flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1024838 (download the signed recovery) this is recommended to avoid bootloop as this wipe the system directly form recovery witout failing whereas thunderg recovery somtimes fails to wipe system, if you still want to use thunderg use the latest flash file here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065197
boot into recovery switch off your phone press home+vol down+power
now select usb ms toggle and copy the file just downloaded and flash it then reboot now u have clockwork which works great with cm7.
steps to follow
Boot into clockwork recovery.
go to backup and restore -create a backup of your current rom (Note:If already backup has been done then avoid this step, backup created using amonra or thunderg wont support restoring using clockwork)
go to mount and storage-format sd card
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
mount and storage-format system
mount and storage-mount usb storage (make sure usb debugging is enabled)
copy the rom zip file to the root of your sd card
unmount
install zip from sd card-choose the rom zip and install
flashing takes 3-5 min
reboot

Install Odin on your PC, get the samsung drivers by installing Kies.

Use cwm to install the zip you put on the sd.
Reboot into the stable ROM.

I use Odin Multi Downloader v4.34
The data partition not formating would be a cause for concern, if I was you I would try formating it with ClockWorkMod by doing a data wipe/factory reset.
If it was me I would use my computer to put CyanogenMod 7.2 .zip file on the SD (its stable and handy for getting things working)
Most stock ROMS won't flash through CWM.
So to summerise I would try this:
Go into download mode.
Link up with Odin and select your OPS file (make sure GTI5500 OR 5503 appears at top and not the word Android)
Select "One Package" in Odin options
Download a .zip of Clockworkmod for galaxy 5
select it as the One Package and don't touch the other boxes...
let clockworkmod flash into the phone and let it boot into it
now try the data wipe in clockworkmod
install the cyanogenmod zip from the sd and reboot
good luck
I've attached my Clockworkmod Zip file. I use it at least once a week so its good

Yep! There is no key combo for recovery on Galaxy5, if I need to boot recovery and cannot load the rom I just put it in download mode and use odin to reflash clockworkmod, then when its finished it auto boots into cwm and I do whatever I need to

That's only available in custom recoveries like CWM. What you're looking at is the stock recovery that came with your device. You need to flash the custom recovery first using whatever method for your device (read device forum) and then only you can flash custom ROMs.

Hi,
Even i got the same problem, but after that i check i copied it in internal SD card.
Thanks,
I had the same Problem with my ZOPO ZP900. I found out that the CWM Version i had could not mount the USB (SDCARD). A different (older) CWM Version fixed the Problem. The one that ZOPO offers is bad.

If you want to install custom roms on your device, please just google the name of your device and the custom rom you would like to flash. There's plenty of guides on the internet. However, about the "unable to mount sdcard" problem: Have you encrypted your phone with the android built-in encryption? I had the same issue when already using ClockworkModRecovery, CWM was unable to mount the partitions due to them being encrypted. I found a workaround by creating a temporary filesystem in Ram, that i mounted in /sdcard/ as described here: android.stackexchange.com/a/23879 (sry i am not yet allowed to share links i guess). Hope i could help,
Gasp0de
EDIT: Please only do this if your problem is that the phone is encrypted. It will probably not be of use in other cases, and i have no idea what might happen.

okay . first up stop panicking and all will be cool . i assume you can enter recovery mode ? switch your device off , remove the sd card and place a newer version of cwm recovery by a sd card reader ( http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS2/recovery/CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.zip ) . Also Place the rom ( the one you wish [since you want it be kitkat , i recommend you to flash cyanaosp ] ) after you are done copying both files on sd using a card reader , place the sd back and plug the battery in . boot into recovery mode and flash the cwm-kitkatcompatible recovery . after you have flashed it , reboot recovery ( under advanced ) and you'll be running cwm recovery v6.0.4.5 . Then wipe data , cache , dalvik cache ( under advanced ) and then flash the rom . reboot system and you'll be running cyanaosp .
here are a few important links : CyanAOSP : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2576407

To root the s2 and install cwm.. Because the kernel and recovery are together on the s2 you just flash a kernel on firmware like 4.1.2 . So if you flash say philz kernel on 4.1.2 firmware you get custom stock kernel and root and cwm all from the one zip.
Edit.. Sorry about the link. Get 4.1.2 from Sammobile.com.
