Can anyone hep?
I have tried many times to boot into recovery from RM to now avail. Cannot flash a rom or theme either...
I tried flashing CWM for another phone, then reflashing Fascinate but that didn't work either.
Thoughts? Help?
I can manually boot into CWM.
Did you flash the CWM enabling patch through Odin?
Here is the link from the two submitted guides on root CWM, etc. in development:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788099
You must run this patch before rom manager will install its custom recovery.

I'd guess flashing the wrong phone is what messed you up but if you can get into CWM recovery manually can't you flash roms/themes from there, or is that not working too? If it is working, then you don't really need be able to do it from Rom Manager.

sure did... going to try uninstalling RM, RE-flashing the Odin patch, then RE-installing RM.
Thank you though!

I had originally flashed the Fascinate, then by suggestion, flashed another phone and then the fascinate again... no luck.
I dont MIND booting into CWM manually, but so much easier to click and go, you know... laziness
You need to be rooted for ROM Manager to reboot the phone at all let alone into recovery. So just flashing CWM patch with Odin and then trying to have ROM Manager reboot the phone without root access isn't going to work.

i can only boot into clockwork mod recovery using the standard 3 button method. When i use Rom manager or Root manager to go into recovery it takes me into stock android recovery, does anyone know why?
also my epic will not let me flash noobln's rom, it says the file is messed up despite downloading several time?? however I was able to flash the boss rom.
Sounds like you lost your root.
Mine does the same thing concerning using rom manager to boot into recovery. Have to manually boot into recovery. Root is fine though.

It looks like you used noobnl one click to install the CWM recovery to blm8- if you also want rom manager support you need a kernel that supports it on bml7- you can flash that via the CWM- if you search you will find a stock kernel that has CWM support along with several other roms

I don't have it flashed but the latest mixup lists rom manager support- what happens when you try to boot into recovery via rom manager- do you get an "unsigned error"?

Yep i get the unsigned error but using the manual method works. Im reading its because i used the 1 click clockwork method. I used noobnls newest final clockwork.
When i did it koushs way it would work with rom manager.

I might not be understanding your post correctly but I have both methods working - I can manually boot into CWM via three button and also get to CWM via root manager- I used noobnls final and then used it to flash koushs kernel

Sorry. I am running stock rom. Mixup kernal on top of it with rom manager support. Then have noobnls clockwork flashed on top of mixup kernel.
Last week i went back to stock. I rooted then installed the hacked clockwork then installed koushs kernel to get permanent clockwork and it worked from rom manager as well as the three button way. I then flashed mixup over koushs kernel and that's when it quit working from rom manager.
I am wondering if i can reflash koushs kernel and then mixup because before when i did it mixup didn't support clockwork. I didn't flash koushs way on my new epic.
So basically i would have done this.
Noobnls one click with rom manager and fixed su> koushs kernel> mixup kernel????

Goto the market download rom manager once installed open it and first option is to install clockwork recovery select SAMSUNG EPIC it will download and install the recovery for you
After it is complete I would do a backup

Delete the update.zip file from the root of your sdcard and open rom manager backup re-install clockwork recovery

I dont understand but Ill try
Mixup Supports clockwork and rom manager so using market download it and install clockwork recovery.
If you ever have to boot into either STOCK recovery or the THREE FINGER clockwork RECOVERY METHOD.
Navigate to INSTALL UPDATE.ZIP select and you will now be in the proper clockwork recovery
REMEMBER ALWAYS BACKUP

yeah Same happens to me using Switch pro widget. This new version 1.9 has the ability to reboot to recovery.. everytime I rebooted into recovery, it brought me to stock recovery. Seems like the clock work kept failing to delete the stock recovery, but if I press and hold volume down, on/off and camera it boots into clockwork recovery.

yeah apparently with the epic, they are still working out the kinks, i got Rom manager functioning correctly, but Root manager still boots into stock recovery. im guessing the devs of these apps will eventually fix this

From my limited understanding the epic has two recovery locations- one (bml8) is accessed through the 3 button push. The other (bml7) is accessed through adb reboot recovery or rom manager. Use noobnl CWM installer to install to bml8. To use rom manager (to place CWM on bml7) your kernel must support it (i.e. you have to flash to something else other than the stock kernel). hope that makes sense!
In some senses this is nice- if your rom gets messed up you can still access the recovery via the 3 button push
Also before you use rom manager for the first time make sure there is no "update.zip" on the root of your sdcard
I downloaded ROM manager and it said it downloaded the recovery successfully, but when I boot into it, it's the stock Samsung one. What did I miss?
Hit really install packages, or apply update.zip I can't remember. But if the fascinate has the reinstall packages option I know that's the one that is used for all the other phones to boot clockwork the first time. Also if u haven't done this u need to flash the cwm recovery and or kernel with Odin.

Yup, I got it. I just reflashed the kernel and recovery and it worked. Thanks!
Ok so I boughtmy phone today and I rooted. I ran rommanager and flashed clockwork recovery and downloaded a froyo rom and went into rommanager and clicked install rom in rmmanger. I chose the .zip and clicked wipe data and cache. It reboots and goes to stock recovery. It won't boot into Clockwork I tried many different root methods but nothing works. Any help would be apreciated.
Help please

rom manager is not supported by the stock kernel- to use clockwork you need to use the one click on the dev forum
Can you use the Z4 method?

Happened to me too. Once you install Clockwork Recovery with Rom manager, turn off phone, then turn it on but hold the vol down and camera buttons until the samsung.com screen. Then viola Clockwork recovery.
Basically I got both recoveries on here after using the one click method. All apps that reboot into recovery goto stock which I do need a fix for.

OK I have a problem. I had a difficult time flashing to DI18, figured out it was the pc not installing all the drives. Got there, went to backed snack 1.6 without a problem. I try anything else and I get the same error no matter what I wipe or anything.. tried DJ29 and DK05 and a few of the custom roms based n those 2 and I end up with can't symlink system/bin/dumpcrash, error at line 6..
I flashed DI18 with odin, fresh, didn't install any apps or sync with google, and same thing when I clockwork.. rom manager won't boot into clockwork, only android.. Is it me? Am I doing something wrong? I read someone flashed DJ29 or a DK05 rom over baked snack and I can't seem to find a solution.
Any help is appreciated.. I can't find any topics or posts that offer help or guidance in what to do with errors..

I had that same sot of problem. Rooted the epic flashed clockwork and woudnt boot in to the proper recovery. So here is what I did: with any file manager go onto your sd card and delete the update zip from the sd root directory. Then go into rom manager and reflash clockwork. Then manually boot into recovery by holding down volume down, power, and camera button. This should get you into clockwork recovery.

OK I tried but rom manager wont boot into any recovery now. I still have to boot in manually.. Not a problem, but I tbought booting from RM would be better for installing the .zip. gonna change the battery and try flashing but I am more concerned with how to flash any DJ29 or DK05 rom cuz I haven't been able to no matter what.

Exactly. You HAVE to go to Clockwork from the 3 button boot. STOP using Rom manager.

If you are actually in Clockwork via the 3 button boot (green text) and you can't install a zip, any zip as that is an option to actually choose the zip no mater what the name. THEN you need to re-root the phone

and re-install Clockwork

Also, this is a general topic that should be in the General forum, not in the development section as you aren't developing anything in this thread.
Ok thanks, wasn't sure where it belonged.. I have installed baked snack 1.6 and I can keep doing it no matter what I do, I don't even need to wipe. But anything else won't install. Root is there, I use apps that need it and the only one that has given me problems is root manager about su and not etting permission even though it has permission, so I will removethe permissions and see what happens.
Thanks a lot for the help, it's highly appreciated.

I had an issue with RM once. Go to "flash alternate recovery" then flash clockwork mod again. It worked after that because there was an incomplete recovery. Might be your issue. If not keep asking.

i really never used clockwork mod recovery so i'm not sure how it installs rom's from the app itself. Have you tried rebooting into recovery and manually wiping everything then flash the rom?
Thanks worked like a charm. Got cm7 back.
