Hello,
I recently bought a HDC Legend S4 and wanted to root it and install CWM.
After having it rooted, I used this toturial to install CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44660171&postcount=417&nocache=1&z=8685201136395335
The installation seemed to be succesful, after it was done it rebooted into CWM.
Then, when I tried to boot into CWM from a power off state, I wasn't able to do that (Volume up button + power button).
When I choose 'Reboot into recovery' in ROM Manager, it just boots into CWM.
Any idea why this is? It's a limitation of the method I used to install CWM?
Regards
Hi,
First of all, have you tried booting into CWM recovery by pressing the "volume down" button when the screen shows the logo (whatever shows first)?
Second, have you unlock the bootloader? If not, maybe it is a limitation from the method of the CWM that you used.
I'm just a newbie trying to help.
Please click Thanks if it helps.

Hello,
Thanks for your reply.
I realized that fast boot was enabled, after disabling it, it worked just fine.

Hi,
I'm pretty new to Android. I recently rooted my phone using Framaroot and it worked perfectly after reboot. Then I tried to install Sinhalese fonts using Sinhala Fonts Installer and after installing that, I uninstalled the app before restarting. Then I restarted the phone and it get stuck at the Huawei Logo and will not boot into launcher.
I tried to hard reset by going to recovery mode using Power + (vol up + vol down). (Fortunately I can go into the recovery mode.) Even if I factory reset the phone, the same situation is there. And some articles said to log in to fast boot mode by Power + Vol down, but it doesn't work and just boots into that Huawei logo.
As I read, to install a custom ROM, ClockWork Recovery has to be used, but I can't do it since I can't log into my phone.
Please help me on this. What has gone wrong? Is there any way I can make my phone alive? Or at least, is there any way that I can install ClockWork Recovery without booting into my phone, just using my SD card?
Thank you in advance..!!

Dear,
Don't worry. You just need to flash a new stock rom to get everything back., Huawei stock roms can be easily flashed onto the phone. Put the update.zip file in the recovery and simply Apply Update (flash) your rom.

Root and recovery are two different things.
To have recovery you need to install one, for locked bootloader I assume.

If you're on nemesis kernel, press power button several time, if you're using CWM for locked bootloader, press volume down key for several time until u saw the recovery!

There is no recovery built-in Sony stock kernel, as I said you will have to install one, either recovery for unlocked bootloader, or flash a custom kernel that has one built-in.
Hi!
Last night, I installed a new custom-firmware by using Baidu ROM flash tool (not exactly the Baidu ROM). After installation, my phone rebooted, and got stuck on "Baidu" logo (a screen before the user-interface).
Is there any way to flash another rom, or do some reset?
Thank you!
Probably you should have done a factory reset on your phone before flashing Baidu. You can do this through CWM, and after this you can flash Baidu rom.
Also, you can always flash stock roms with Odin.

But how do I install CWM on my phone. It's not even rebooting in the recovery mode by pressing VOL+, MENU, and Power button.

Put your device on download mode (VOL -, menu, power buttons) and then flash CWM with Odin.

No! Not working for me. Is there any other way?
This is what it happens;
Samsung Logo - Samsung Galaxy Win GT-I8552 (appears on screen), and then Baidu Logo ; that's all!
Are you doing the process right? You must press the three buttons at same time; when your phone vibrates, you release only the power button but keep the other two pressed. A warning should appear on screen.
Hey guys,
I have a problem since 2 weeks now and it seems there is no answer to is...
I installed TWRP and also installed after the CWM recovery for trying purposes...
Here is my problem: After installing either of the recovery mode... Normally I switch off my phone after I "simply" need to press volume up button and power button simulatiously.... BUT it blo**y does not work.
So I wanted to ask: What am I doing wrong?
I have the TWRP-2.8.6.0_S90 and/or CWM_6.0.5.1
Help is much appreciated!
I tried something unconventional. I pressed the volume up and volume down key simultaneously while power on the device and twrp recovery booted up. Try yours.
Hey everyone (Again),
So i managed to unlock the bootloader and everything went smoothly but I flashed my recovery i can't get into it now it comes up with an error message everytime i try to get into recovery it says ' Your software cannot be checked for corruption' any way to get rid of this or do i have to re- lock the bootloader just to fix it and get recovery working.
Thanks again.
Anyone?

That's not an error message, that's the message you'll see every bit if you unlock the bootloader. Do NOT relock your bootloader after installing custom recovery. Also to get into recovery (provided you installed it correctly and it wasn't erased after it booted info Android) is to turn your phone off (or pull battery) and then hold volume down & power button, one you see the LG logo let go of the power button only (still hold volume down) for about 1 second and then press the power button again and hope (never let go of volume down). It will ask you if you want to reset your phone, select yes two times and you will enter TWRP. If it actually resets your phone, TWRP isn't installed. Usually after installing TWRP you need to pull battery then use above method to boot into recovery, mount system partition and use TWRP file manner to delete come named "recovery from boot.p". You can also go ahead and install SuperSU or magisk (use magisk if you need to be able to pass safety net). Hopefully this helps you, also next time please include what model phone you have and what steps exactly you did as it's easier for others to attempt to help you.
Mines a H850 running nougat as well but thats the only thing it wont boot to recovery because when i hold down the volume down button and the power button the lg logo shows up but then after 4 seconds that google message will pop up and that gets in the way of doing the method to get onto recovery thats my problem

You have to follow exactly what I posted earlier. If you do that, it will show the factory reset screen which is you have TWRP installed, it will not into TWRP.
1) Power off phone
2) Press and hold volume down (do not let go until you see factory reset screen)
3) Press and hold power button, when you see LG logo, let go of power button for 1 second and then press and hold again.
If you do not follow step 3, you'll never be able to boot to recovery using button combo, it will just go to that message and then boot into Android.

Thanks for that! I got it working cheers
I'm actually having a similar issue too.
To clarify, I'm using a LG G5 (h830 variant) that is running resurrection remix.
I remember getting into recovery just to flash the updated modem and bootloader zips so I can fix the issue with powering off the device.
Now I noticed after doing that, I cannot get into recovery either with rebooting or with the button combo.
Thankfully I am rooted with magisk and this is probably the first time that I encountered this issue.
I don't want to further risk anything (because my phone is set up and don't want to lose any data) but would flashing twrp through the official app work just fine?

I know this is old,Just wanted to say thank it worked for me...
Been a while since I used LG and never with official bootloader unlock so I was thrown off by resetting to recovery as at first i never had the lg screen just the bootloader warning start
For those T-Mo G5 (H830) with unlocked bootloader, you will not see any LG logo. Once you see the lcd backlight comes on, immediately release the power button and press it again, all the while holding down the vol down button.
When you see the bootloader unlocked phone is unsafe msg by LG on the screen, it will already be too late and past the stage where you can boot to recovery. Simply power down and redo in that case.
(Needed to do the above as the latest Magisk 20.0 broke root and adb on H830, thus there was no way to get into recovery other than using the physical buttons. The Magisk Canary version of 20.1 works though.)
