Hi i am trying to install clockworkmod recovery so that i can install cm11 rom. I download the cwm file and copy to sd card, then switch off phone and boot into recovery and install the file from sd card. Then phone goes into cwm recovery but if i reboot and then switch off phone and boot into recovery again it just goes to stock android recovery! Anyone knows whats happening and how to solve? Please help

Well.You should do it every time if you want to enter into the CWM. If you want to change your recover mode permenently you should follow some other procedure!

I recently tried to install android revolution hd 2.2.0 and ran super wipe.I have put the rom on the sdcard too,so it isn't anymore and the normal bootup doesn't work,I am stuck in recovery and need a way to put that rom there to flash it..does the window explorer work in recovery mode?

If you have the stock Rom flash it via Odin.
Cwm sometimes mounts the external sd card but sometimes doesn't.. don't know how it is for others but it isn't working properly for me.
Go to mount and storage in Cwm for mounting sdcard.

I removed the battery because it was not charging and I thought I won't can flash any rom with the battery low,so I will seek more advices before turning it back on,so..
Wipe removed all my files,including stock rom,but I don't know if volume down + power + home button will work.Well I went into choose zip from sdcard and they all were there,I ran super wipe as it was said in the flash tutorial and it deleted almost everything,I am stuck into recovery and I cannot enter sdcard because there are no files anymore,such as the rom needed to be flashed.
If I mount sdcard n the mount and storage in cwm will windows explorer be able to put the rom back there? So i can flash it with.
update: volume down+home+power works perfectly,should I flash the rom with odin directly? the sdcard is empty too.

If you can get into download mode then you should easily be able to flash via Odin.
Do a search in the forum because there are many guides about flashing through Odin.

I will flash stock rom then I will try again to do android revolution hd 2.2.0 ( the step I missed is about creating a virtual ssd )
I will come with an update if the flash stock rom through odin works.
Checkrom comes in two versions,one is Odin flashable,flash that.then u are rooted after flashing
Next time u use superwipe remember to move the rom to EXTERNAL SD-card ,because internal SD-card is wiped.
Weird..odin exits after a while it says Please wait then it quits,while trying to flash stock rom,what's the problem?
I found a way to put the rom back there,but it is in sdcard,and I cannot enter it ( cannot mount )
How can I solve this from the recovery mode? I am still stuck in recovery mode or download mode..and the rom is on the card now,but cannot access to flash it with cwm
Why do not you just boot?
Previous rom is there but wiped and restored.
I do not think that superwipe was made to empty system from the rom.

The rom had to be put on a virtual/external sdcard,but because I didn't read carefully I put it on sdcard aslong with superwipe,so after I launched superwipe it deleted the sdcard files and the stock OS too,so it just says samsung galaxy siii like before it boots,but it stays that way..
I don't know how to get into the sdcard,cwm recovery says it cannot mount it,sdcard contains my rom,and because I cannot access it,I cannot flash it..I need a way to help cwm to mount sdcard,so I can flash it from there..
Otherwise I tried flashing stock rom but odin crashes,like I press start,then it says check md5 then Please wait,it gets stuck and quits..
Which recovery do you have? Is it the touch cwm?
Flash 5.5.0.4 1.5 from chainfire. Make sure when running odin nothing from kies is running in the background and make sure you do not tick re-partition.

It is not touch cwm..it is a normal cwm from what I have seen.
Can you give me the exact version ( including link )to flash with odin? I think it does not charge and I always get off the battery from it when I try something new and it does not work.
edit: CWM-based Recovery v5.5.0.4 :: CF -v1.3

Then i need to tell you that you must flash through Odin a full rom then reroot and then flash again a custom rom of your choice.
Just make sure every time you flash with Odin nothing from Kies runs in the background. Otherwise Odin flash will fail or stuck.
Edit: Please remember and NOT TICK REPARTITION.

What's the problem?
Its checking md5, that takes a few minutes.
Boot into download mode (volume down+home+power, press up when it says are you sure) then flash via Odin.
Its simple.

Actually i prefer Odin 1.84. It never gives me any trouble.

Ok,thanks a lot Back to stock..now I will try to run the custom rom again,can someone help me via skype or something through the steps? I don't want to make the same mistake again..
I've got my boot loader unlocked. I'm rooted on v10g. I have cwm and I was wondering if I could just flash the zip file with cwm.
I think you have to make sure you have the right recovery to flash with. If I'm not mistaken I did flash with the cmw for locked bootloaders but to be safe I'll say to find the right one that is for unlocked bootloaders. I'm using CMW touch for unlocked bootloaders. Make sure you do a factory reset. It might not be necessary but I run a factory reset, I wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing a ROM. Also, make sure you backup your stock ROM before flashing another.

Is there anywhere I can get the files for cwm touch? I wasn't able to install that when I unlocked my bootloader. Thanks for the reply.

Here is the recovery file, just install it using fastboot as cmahendra describes in his awesome guide
Everytime I issue the unlock command to try and get in fastboot mode it just restarts my phone.

Oh, I didn't know you had a P769.
Look at the bottom most paragraph of the first post of this guide by carloswii5.
He explains it very nicely.
So to get this straight. I download the recovery image & put that on the root of the sd card. Then flash it. Then I'll boot to recovery & flash cm 10.1

Yes, exactly, but use the "Nandroid Manager ROOT" to flash recovery and then do a full wipe + format system before flashing CM10.1
You can of course then flash Gapps as well.
carloswii5 said:
If you want to install the cm10 rom the optimus L9 has as of right now you
have to do the following
1) Go to the app store and search for the app called "Nandroid Manager ROOT"
download the app and open it then go to flash recovery you must first put the recovery from the downloaded file to the
root of you external sd card and then go to the app and search for the recovery and flash it.
After you flash it you will have a recovery on your phone
(just to let you know it will be mirrored) but to boot to recovery you must turn off the phone
and then hold the "Volume UP + Home Button + Power Button"
now go download the cm10 rom from here " http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2216542 " put the file to the root of your sd card and then reboot to recovery and then to flash you will need to "wipe system, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache then flash" after you flash the zip reboot and you will have CM10 Hope This helped

Alright I have been having some problems with my Note 2 that would be for instance I used to use TWRP but know I use ClockWorkMod Recovery and I don't want to anymore but I try to switch back and it said it did but when I go into recovery mode it just goes into ClockWorkMod Recovery. Also another problem I am having would be I am trying to flash over a new rom (Jedix17) but when I put it on my sd card it says its on there on my computer but when I go into CWMR it nots even in there.
Anyways or ideas that you guys can think of to fix this would be greatly appreciated.
How are you installing TWRP? I would say ODIN or adb it. Also CWM is not seeing which SD, internal or external? Put TWRP on internal and try that if you have not already.
Just download goo manager and install the TWRP recovery through that.

Thought it was pulled from goo cause of having to have the correct boot loader? I know it said my device was not compatible or couldn't find it for my device. Pretty sure that it said that on the twrp page.
ok i got the phone, odin, a recovery and a rom how do i root it and or get the rom flashed ? Any step by step tutorials? Do i gotta flash the recovery first then the rom? im lost. i dont wanna brick my phone, can anyone walk me through the process? thanks

Have you looked at all at the "faq's" at the top of the forum pages, maybe the "please read", or the "important threads?"
Perhaps do a little searching using the "Search" button?

You have to open the ROM zip and pull the boot.img out and flash it using fast boot cimands or if you can get into your android system using your original backup....then you can install 4ext recovery which will flash the boot img for you with smart flash...sound like you have a kernel problem
