My phone can't bootup nor boot into recovery after flashing double cwm on my Samsung Galaxy SIII mini.
The first CWM was the officail one for my phone but because i can't install zip from my sd card with it (it shows: Error! Signature verification fails.) and it has no option to toggle between signature check off/on i decided to install another version of CWM which i google search and i got one at twrp site name CWM_6.0SG3.zip. I downloaded it and flash it into my galaxy s3 mini with flashify and when i reboot into recovery my phone could not bootup. It just show the Samsung Galaxy S3 mini logo and it hooks there till i remove the battery and place it back.
Please i need an expert help on how i can delete the CWM from the phone and unroot it with PC.
Please help a brother. I just bought the phone last week, i can't afford to loose it.
Thanks.

Do you have Odin? I'm not extremely familiar w/ Galaxy devices, but last time that I was on one, stock firmware was flashed w/ Odin via a computer. Do some searching on how to use Odin to flash stock images on Galaxy devices. Your answer will be there.

Thanks dear.
I successfully flashed another recovery into my phone. Now my phone can boot up. I first made the mistake of flashing galaxy s3 CWM recovery into my mini unaware, so when I found out, I downloaded the official recovery for s3 mini then reflashed it with Odin 3.9 using my lappy.
Moderators pls close this thread.

i have a galaxy tab 10.1 wifi p7510 and i am having a issue with odin getting stuck on the boot.img file when tring to fix tablet. to give a little background i have just recently picked up tab and when i got it it was running cwm recovery 5.8.3.1 and also had cyanogenmod 10.1. i was having alot of issues with it and when i bought it the guy said he had the stock rom backup in cwm so i i deleted the cyan mod and tried to use backup of stock rom and cwm finished and i rebooted and got stuck in the tab logo screen so apparently the backup was bad and now i have no recovery option. so now i am trying to use odin 1.85 to put the stock rom back on the tab and everytime i try it stops on the boot.img file and never goes any further no matter how long i wait. i am using the oem samsung cable i have tried letting the battery fully drain then go straight into download mode but everytime i try it gets stuck on boot.img. i am lost on what i am doing wrong so any help would be appreciated.

P.S fire up odin with administration rights
Hi,
Now I'm in a big trouble. Please help me, I'll explain what happen in a very detailed manner. Please reply...
My Phone Details:
Model: Samsung Galaxy S3 GT I9300.
My phone is rooted.
OS: Android 4.3
Actually I was trying to install a new firmware to my old Galaxy S3 which does not have an official Android Kitkat update.
I installed Clockworkmod recovery. I followed a tutorial from here http://www.teamandroid.com/2014/07/10/update-galaxy-s3-i9300-android-444-cm11-m8-kitkat-firmware/
So when I did that, I followed all steps correctly expect one simple step. That is, in that tutorial it was said to put CM M18 kitkat file & Google apps in SD card root folder(not in any other). So I simply made a folder in my external sd card. I named folder as "Sd card root" and pasted those files. Now using recovery mode (Clockworkmod) I selected "Install zip from SD Card">Choose zip from external card>sd card root (Which I created in my Sd card like a fool)>Installed Google apps successfully but that CM M18 FAILED TO INSTALL. Then after that failure I tried to reboot my phone. It didn't reboot!!. That "Samsung Galaxy SIII GT I9300" displayed but instead of going to home screen it opened Clockworkmod recovery. So I could not access the phone.IT WAS ALWAYS OPENING THE CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY INSTEAD OF OPENING THE PHONE :crying::crying::crying::crying:
Please Please Please anyone help!! Or else my life would come to end
What version of clock work mod are you using? ?
If it's older than 6.0.4.4 then you need to update you need to update it by odin preferebly.
Press thanx if i helped you in anyway...

yesterday I decided to install cm 11 on my i9300 not with odin but from their site where you can download an exe then connect the phone to the computer then the magic begins (PS: i don't understand anything about flashing rome this is my first attempt so i need a simple solution i can work with )
while cm was installing on my phone something called clockwork recovery mode appeared so I foolishly pressed reboot system after that the mobile rebooted and got stuck in the boot loop
someone help me please!
I tried to follow some tutorials so I downloaded odin 3.04 but the phone didn't get connected. :crying:
Sounds like you stopped it before it installed the rom.
Either flash back to stock or download cm m10 from here, put on your sd card and flash with recovery.

dear after installing Samsung galaxy s3 i9300 ROM upon rebooting i am stuck in cyanogen mode please help me
Hello , i have a problem with my samsung s3, i tried to flash with odin the custom recovery philz (6.0.0 and 6.48.4) and cwm(6.0.4.7 and 6.0.3.2) with Odin 1.83 and 3.07. Odin finish resets the phone but when i try to boot in the Recovery appears the dead droid with the No Command message and boots in the original recovery. Can anyone help me, please. Sorry for my bad english.
You have a stock firmware, which will restore recovery at each boot.
i understand this. can i fix`it ? last night i spend some good hours searching for some solutions but no luck...
Root your device: you get a modified kernel and cwm-recovery. Then you can replace cwm (by TWRP f.e. ).
so first of all i need to root the device . not to try to instal the recovery via odin directly. can you please tell me some names of what i need to get ?
Go read the sticky thread in general forum, all you need to know is there.
ok thank you very much:good:
ok, I', usually pretty good at rooting and such having my galaxy S4 for many years now but I got this Galaxy Star for work just to use it off wifi and bluetooth but it had 4.1 and i needed it on 4.4 for it to work so I knew i needed to root it, load recovery and find an updated rom.
I Odin'd CWM recovery and all I got was a white screen when going into recovery mode. didnt matter what i tried. I wound up flashing a file that also wiped out my download screen, now all I see it a blueish/white screen for download mode, but I can odin files ok.
I've tried every stock recovery hard reset file i can find online and nothing helps. Any help is appreciated. Is there any samsung stock firmware somehere that wipes everything???
Model: GT-S7262
and I seem to have bricked it now, wont even power up after flashing a phillipine version of the firmware.
well, no more white screen but now I have no display at all. still goes into download mode though.

I came from a Galaxy S4 too
You need to flash FireLord1's CWM 6.0.5.1 on stock ROM, otherwise you will get a whitescreen trying to enter.
I know it works with both Indian and Eaten European firmwares.
ok, so i need a link to a the stock rom and his CWM. I can find indian firmware i think.
Weird thing is, I can hear it boot up, Samsung Kies and Odin see it just fine. Just a black screen for everything now.
got it back working with this firmware..
