Are you selecting flash zip from sd card or apply update.zip? You need to flash from sd card and it needs to be in the root oid card

Is there a particular reason why quickboot and rom manager won't boot to clockwork?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Well is your rom compatible with rom manager and did you flash the epic version in rom manager?

That might be the reason try noobnl's anormedia rom I'm pretty shure its compatuble did you do the one click clockwork too?

Go into the clockwork mod app and click flash clockwork and choose epic but make sure that the rom zip is on the root of your sd card not a folder. Yeah the epic experiance rom never says anything about being compatible with clockwork tho.

To be able to use rom manger to reboot into recovery you need to have a boot kernel that works with rom manager. If you flashed recovery the only way to get to it is by the volume down camera buttonv power button combo. Using quick boot or adb reboot recovery will take you into stock recovery in the boot kernel if you do this you need to select the flash update.zip line in recovery to get into clockwork.

i tried this and it says not signed or something
it fails
update i got rom manager to work but quickboot still boots to stock recovery
I'm pretty sure that you download a file to your sdcard, boot up clockworkmod recovery, and install it from there you previously saved...??? Am I correct in my assumption?

That's what I did.
My phone is rooted and set up correctly but I am unable to get into to the clockwork recovery at all. I have tried through either rom manager or stock recovery update.zip any ideas?

Delete the update.zip and clockworkmod folder from your SD card and uninstall Rom Manager. Do a factory reset and totally wipe your phone.
Using ODIN (PDA) flash this package to your phone. Remove battery, hold vol down key and plug in usb. Replace battery and start the flash using this file.

When the phone resets you may have to activate your phone again.
Go to App Market and re-download Rom Manager. Click Flash ClockworkMod Recovery .. Samsung Fascinate. After that click Reboot into Recovery and install from zip.
Is there any way to do it we without odin? My monitors broken so I have no computer access.

Well Rom Manager should work that way but unfortunately it doesn't. At least for me it doesn't. I have seen threads stating you can mount the update.zip and apply in stock recovery but it didn't work for me.
You have to flash it with odin first, then with rom manager. No need to factory reset our any of that... Just flash with odin first
Hey guys I have been trying to install a rom using clockworkmod recovery but when I install from sd card it runs the process them says installation aborted every time.
Locked bootloader
Clockworkmod recovery 5.0.2.7

Maybe the Rom you install is not for Locked bootloader
It's my understanding that the roms that you use with a locked bootloader aren't flashable, but are to be used as a nandroid backup. In other words, the roms that you must flash are just for those with unlocked bootloaders.

You seem to be trying to flash the zip of Cola, instead of unpacking it, and moving to /mnt/sdcard/ClockwordMod/backup/
What I am trying to do is to restore rather than flash but I do not have rom manager premium
I'm using rom toolbox
Sent from my R800x using xda premium
You don't need to use rom manager or rom toolbox. After you unpacked the zip file, place it in /clockworkmod/backup and if it doesn't exist, make it! After having the folder in the backup folder, get into your clockworkmod recovery and use the backup and restore menu there to restore.

Was just about to post the same thing.
Anyway, if you are having trouble booting into recovery, open a terminal, and type in adb shell reboot recovery and your device will reboot into the recovery console.
Thanks for the advice guys ill see what happens

Never mind already got it and its 100% working =]
I've actually never had the reboot recovery command work, even from the terminal on the phone.
Anyway, I'm here to correct that last command. You will either use
adb shell
reboot recovery
or
adb reboot recovery
Although an access denied error would mean that you need superuser privileges to correctly run the command. I don't remember if it's needed to reboot to recovery, it's just instinct for me to hit su when I use terminal or adb.
Problem is my computer crashed so I can't unpack cola6, meaning I can't place the folder in clockworkmod/backup

If you have it on your phone you can unpack it using ROM Toolbox.

Hello. I have successfully rooted my acer a 500, i have used root checker to confirm this and also have app for superuser. I have successfully installed cwm via acer recovery app. I was able to backup the current rom, but am having issues flashing a new rom. Im dlashing from extenal sd card. But when i run cwm i notice that when i backup or attempt to flash cwm says "no sd-ext found" any thoughts?

Idk, maybe i was just tired. I was able to successfully flash flexreaper ics. I guess my only concern now is my backed up roms dont show up in rom manager, running v 5.0.0.6. Any idea why? (cwm is version 5.5.0.4, if it matters)

Rom Manager is a phone app. I'd advise not using it for the 500/501. Unless they changed something in the past month, you could really wonk up your tab.
Check your Ext SD card. You should have a folder called Clockwork, which contains your recovery backups. (unless you already formatted your SD card)
When you make a recovery (either CWM or RA), you should boot to the recovery, and do your recovery backup/nand backup from there. NOT through Rom Manager.
