Slow down and think about what you are wanting to say.
You rooted the phone?
you turned s=off?
you downloaded Rom Manager?
You flashed the Recovery image?
What version did you flash?
I'm assuming you flashed 3.0.0.5 since that is the newest CWRI on the application.
3.0.0.5 is only for 2.3 (Gingerbread ROMS)
Download and flash Cyanogen(mod) CM7, either of the nightlies or the RC1 will work. Make sure to also flash the G/apps. Then go to the market re-download the CWRM then scroll to the bottom and flash a older version of CW's Recovery image. OR follow True_Blues method for installing 3.0.0.6.

your phone isn't bricked, but it in "limp mode" sorta speak. To get to the recovery image pull the battery out of the phone, put it back in and put the battery cover back on, Then press the Volume down button (on the rocker) and hold it. Then pres and hold the power button. It'll boot into HBoot and you can use the volume rocker to select recovery and get back into the recovery mode. Then select "mount" the "USB' to move Cyanogen to the SD card, along with the GAPPS.
Then do a factory reset (wipe the hand held) then flash Cyanogen, then flash the GAPPS, then reboot.

SAME EXACT PROBLEM... and it was already answered.

I checked through 100s of post tonight and could not find the answer to this and am in need of some help. I attempted to install a Cyanogen Nightly tonight through Rom Manager with no prior knowlege of the issues with CW 2.5 vs. CW 3.0. Stupid I know.
So natuaraly, when the download finished and Rom Manager tried to install, my MT4G just hung at the white boot screen. Through previous posts, the directions were simple to reflash the previous CW Recovery through Fastboot and reflash the Rom.
Well thats where the problem is.... When I attempt to flash ANY Rom earlier than 3.0.0.5, it will say OKAY in CMD, however the phone will never boot into the Recovery. I even tried fastboot erase recovery then reinstalled and still nothing.
So i decided to go a different root and reinstalled 3.0.0.5 to see if there was any work around through there. After i install 3.0 through Fastboot, I am able to go into Recovery, however when I select ANY option no matter what, the hat and the gear icon stay in the background and nothing happens.
I am very confused and lost and am hoping someone here will have had the same issue and can help me get my phone back in order.
Thanks in advance guys!

I havent had that issue exactly, but I might be able to help wlk you through getting this fixed. Ive had problems more than once myself on recovery, and helped a couple others solve other issues on here. If you want, add me on google talk (same username as on xda), and Ill walk you through it. Might have to wait till the morning, though, as Im probably gonna head to bed soon.
Fastboot 2.5 recovery and reflash froyo rom. If you decide to install CM7 again - read,search and make sure that you understand what you're doing. It has been stated at least few dozen times that Rom Manager is useless with gingerbread until Koush updates it.
Same Issue??
I believe my issue sounds similar.
I tried to go from Iced Glacier up to CM7. When I did I attempted to use the Clockwork Recovery 2.5 and of course it didn't work. Then I tried to upgrade it to 3.0.0.5. Now when I try to reboot into Clockwork recovery the phone just stays on the MyTouch 4G splash screen. The only way to get around it is use the Power/Volume down button and click on FASTBOOT and then select REBOOT.
The phone then boots in Iced Glacier. I have redownloaded ROM Manager and attempted to FLASH CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY. But it still won't load into recovery.
Essentially I need some step by step help to get back to clockworkmod recovery. I'm not too worried if I need to wipe everything. Just looking for the ability to restore again.
Alternatively I'm interested in upgrading to CM7 but not sure how I could do that without recovery working. I would also ask if you can give step by step instructions it would be much appreciated as I'm still pretty new to this.
Thanks!
I also have the similar problem. I have installed the Clockworkmod 3.0.0.5 and have rooted my phone before i was trying to install the gingerbread version. I made a recovery backup. i tried to restore the phone with that backup image but it still hung up with that "t-mobile mytouch " white splash screen.
What should i do now ? i have no idea how to bring my phone back to life :/

Sounds like both of you should of never of done this. This has been discussed a few times, and the end result is always the same.....
Download the correct Recovery image (which can be found in the Development section) and install it to your phone by using the ADB commands, in the fastboot mode. you can find a quick and painless way to set those up in my signature. Once you have installed the recovery image you can boot into hBoot and select recovery. from there you can flash CM7 and the gapps. Once you have done all that download the official clockwork ROM manager from the market and flash his current recovery image.
hey guys so today I finally rooted my HTC Legend, installed rom manager, made my backup using clockwork i believe? well i installed clock work, then i made a backup of my rom, now I tried to install CyanogenMod from rommanager and also installed google apps...
The problem is now..
When i turn the phone on it keeps looping on the blue logo with the elctricity going around...cant turn it off cant do anything, have to manually take the battery out and start it up again..
Im not sure how to get my original rom back on, but i tried to get into the recovery menu atleast..I can get to the fastboot, but when i go into bootloader, then click recovery it does everything normally, it shows the red triangle, I run recovery-windows.bat ( provides in Paul's tutorial at modaco ) and it says device not found..
EDIT: before I installed cyanogen, i disabled debugging mode for something, and I dont think i turned it back on :S I think it may have something to do with me not getting into recovery...what do i do! :'(
Put the Clockwork Mod Fake flash update.zip from the Development Forum on your SDCard and then go again in Recovery, until you see the red triangle. Then hit Volume up + Power and select flash update.zip. You should boot in Clockwork Mod Recovery then.
I dont even think you need to put fake flash on your card. If you choose to install clockwork recovery through rom manager its there. The reason your in a loop is that you didnt clear enough before installing CM 6. Enter clockwork recovery by volume up and power, it can take some trys. There factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache. Reinstall CM 6 + google apps and reboot. You should be good to go!

OMG! Thank you so much! I booted into clockwork, and am currently "restoring" to my default one when i first rooted..hopefully it works!
EDIT: YESS IT WORKS! I FCKING LOVE U!
Ok it has been awhile since I have messed with my wife's Streak or since I had one (I went with the Captivate). She just got a replacement Streak from Dell and it came with the AT&T locked 1.6 on it. I have tried flashing clockwork and streakmod to it and it does not stick. What am I doing wrong? What am I missing? Please help her gripping is about to kill me.

Take a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=805112 Don't forget that you need to root before you attempt to flash.
You don't need root before flashing a custom rom. Flash streakmod recovery then use the fastboot command to reboot the phone. Make sure you hold both volume buttons as the phone reboots. If you let the phone boot normally streakmod recovery is overwritten by the stock recovery, but if you don't let it boot you can boot into streakmod and then flash your custom ROM. All of DJ Steve's ROM's are already rooted.
If you want a custom rom this is what I would do:
Since you can get 2.2 OTA, I would go ahead and upgarde to the OTA version of 2.2
Copy the ROM you want and your install.txt (if needed) to your sd card
Flash streakmod recovery
Boot into the streakmod recovery and install the ROM
You will now be rooted and have the ROM you want installed.
If you don't want a custom ROM I suggest:
you upgrade to the 2.2 OTA version (and then apply a different stock version if you want)
then root (SuperOneClick will probably work)
rename the file install-recovery.sh that is in /etc to something else to prevent the recovery from being overwritten
Flash streakmod recovery
make whatever other mods you want
If you want a version of Android beyond or different than the OTA update leave the stock recovery on the phone until you get the stock version of Android you want installed.

ok i have gone through every step to the letter and i still cant get O2 1.6 to update.
also i cant get the 2.2 ota update to go through either
what recovery do you have. You cant do a stock update with a custom recovery.

the stock recovery, that is referance in the link above.
i did "attempt" to go straight to steves's build by flashing clockwork, but it did not take (at least it did not appear to) so i started following that guide and it is NOT working.
How can I determine which recovery i am using? it "looks" like the stock one to me but maybe i am wrong
You need clockwork or streakmod recovery to flash one of dj steves roms. When you boot into recovery if you select update with the camera button and you get the dell logo with the exclamation mark in a triangle, press the power button and if a blue menu comes up then you have streakmod. I havent used clockwork as i've heard it doesnt play well with the streak, so im not sure if the steps are the same. You can search the forums for streakmod recovery and flash it if you dont have it.
ive tried using both streakmod and clockwork, but they just give me a blank screen.
does anyone know how to get to the official dell update when the update screen says none available?
are you pressing the power button after selecting option 2?? With streakmod you'll get a blank screen until you press the power button. To manually do a stock update you'll need to flash a stock recovery, then copy update.pkg to your sd card and update by selecting option 2 in recovery.
Picture gallery that shows what to expect from streakmod recovery. As usual click on the thumbs for larger images.
After selecting the #2 option at the first screen you should see a Dell logo and an exclamation point. Press the power button to get the streakmod options. If you get a blank screen wait a few seconds and try the power button
ill give that shot tonight thank you
Hey there, i did the oem unlock and flashed clockwork recovery and super user. Everytime i reboot my phone the clockwork recovery is just gone., Im coming from an evo so im used to holding the volume down button down at boot with the power button..can i do that to get into clockwork on my Nexus S?
Thanks, alright now how do i boot into recovery without using rom manager? like on my evo i would hold volume button down and hold the power button.... doesnt seem to work on the NS4G
hold volume up while powering up. will take you to bootloader screen, then select recovery option.
Okay after installing clockwork recovery using rom manager when i go to the recovery in fast boot and select it i get the little triangle with ! in the middle of it and a little android\
Edit: It seems like each time i flash it, i can only go to it once, the next time I go to it i get the triangle with the ! in it.
this happened to me too. take out the battery to power off, then power back on and boot, then reflash clockwork via rom manager, make sure you go to all clockworkmod recoveries, make sure you flash version 3.1.0.0...then launch bootloader again.
took me flashing recovery via rom manager 2 or 3 times for it to stick.

Ive done it around 10 times now and its not sticking

No i didnt. Every time i reboot it just disappears D:
also, did you try booting into recovery from the rom manager app after flashing? i was able to boot into recovery via app and fastboot.
update: i'm now getting the exclamation mark while trying to get to recovery. when i reflashed it one more time, i'm able to boot into via app and fastboot again. there's obviously something wrong with cwm recover as its not sticking all the time.
I have it working now.
Using this
BE SURE TO FLASH CLOCKWORK MOD FROM ROM MANAGER AND DO THIS IMMEDIATELY AFTER WITHOUT REBOOTING
At this point you have root, but your phone will continue to replace ClockworkMod Recovery on reboot. To prevent this, do the following:
1) Reboot your phone, and download the app "Root Explorer" from the Market
2) Open Root Explorer and navigate to the "etc" directory.
3) Tap on the gray box that says "Mount R/W"
4) Tap and hold on the file "install-recovery.sh" and rename this file to "install-recovery.sh.old"
5) Download the app "ROM Manager"
6) Open ROM Manager and choose "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery". At this point you are all set .
I was just going to post that for you xD
Glad to see it working!
cool, glad you found it. idk why my recovery was sticking most of the time w/o that hack

Accidentally updated my Hboot now I cant go into recovery and I have tried to download clockworkmod from the market doesn't show up. I have tried to google for the clockworkmod apk said parsing error. If anyone could help me thanks. I keep getting red triangle
Sounds like you lost your recovery. Download PC36IMG of amonRA recovery, put it on root of SD. Turn phone on by holding volume down and hit power button. As long as you flashed a bootloader that is indeed for Evo, it should find and install recovery. Stay away from CWM.

What hboot version did you "upgrade" to? The oldest hboot (.076.2000) is best, but I know anthrax kernel requires newer version. Not worth it to me (not to mention, I stay away from from Sense). Good luck.
