Hi just got myy samsung galaxy s.
Managed to root it with superoneclick after about 2 hours, Installed rom manager and flashed the clockworkmod off of that.
Now when i try to boot into CWR it just goes to the standard samsung recovery.
Anybody know why and how i can fix it?
Thanks in advance
If you just got it I'm assuming it's on 2.2, which will have 3e recovery which isn't compatible with CWM. You'll need to use Odin to flash either CF-Root or a kernel with CWM built in.

You need to flash a cwm enabled kernel via odin. I would suggest speedmod. That will give you the proper recovery and then you can go from there.

Hey guys,
I don't know if I missing the BIG picture somewhere but I just can't seem to find a way to get CWM installed on a fresh JL2 install?
Iv'e googled, xda, android forums, I'm just not finding anything!
As of now:
Rooted phone with Super One Click
SU latest
Titanium Backup
ROM manager
I tried an Odin CMW.tar via PDA field and bricked my phone. Took me about 2 hours to get it back. I had Phone-!-PC icon, then I had /dev/sd/slt01 (... something along those lines), then I had infinte boot loops. What a mess!
I have also tried it from ROM manager, and tried older CMW offered in ROM Manager.
There has to be some simple thing I'm missing.
That is all I have done with the phone. Ill leave like this until someone can point me in the right direction. Just so we are clear phone is well now.
Thanks.
All I did to get Clockwork working in my JL2 was flash CF Root using odin and then flash clockwork via rom manager. All the instruction are in the cf root thread in the development section.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108 is the url for CF-Root and I used the CF Root JPK v1.1 file. It'll root your phone too so if your not already rooted then you don't have to worry about super one click or anything.
Ok, I flashed CF JPK v1.1 and installed CWM via ROM Manager but it does not boot into CWM, it goes straight to <e2>. but if i select update.zip it will boot CWM but if I reboot, it goes straight back to <e2>.
After you flash cwm with rom manager you have to go in recovery
And select update.zip and it might take a few times but it should end up in cwd. Works everytime on mine, after it does it the first time I'm usually good.

The reason why you can't apply update.zip is because JL2 comes with recovery 3e i stead of 2e like eclair version and 3e verify for the signature of update.zip, so no unofficial customization this way. The easiest way is to flash a custom kernel. Speedmod by Hardcore will enable CWM recover by default and give you the option to root if not done prior to flashing the kernel. It's pretty easy to do with odin and takes only 5 sec as these kernel are 5-6 mb. Moreover it's really safe.

That would work too, cf-root is with odin too and only takes a few seconds but as usual the instructions are on the first page of the thread.

I would also recommend this method. Super easy and it works.
+1 that's how I got CWM from a stock JL2 (speedmod 13a).
And if you get errors, reflash JL2 with update bootloader checked. It worked for me... ymmv.

Use odin to go back to stock and look here for super one click root dude
Hell I wouldnt even go back to stock just get the one click root for your phone and root again.you got a lot of stuff to read dude before you try this stuff learn everything dude

You can't flash .zip files with the 3e recovery. Try flashing a Voodoo kernel via odin or using odin to go back to stock so you can get clockwork mod recovery.
OP. I made a guide for going back to JFD and then flashing a ROM
CLICK HERE
Also, check the noob guide if you need more.
assuming you did everything right.....from regular recovery, re-install packages and reboot, reinstall packages once more and it will reboot to clockwork recovery, if that fails then follow this guide step by step:

Hi all
I have my Bell S2 rooted (flashed the custom kernel with Odin)
and then unlocked with Herolz app
Now I downloaded ROM Manager and flashed the latest CWM
but when I 'boot into recovery' , i am booted into the stock android 3e recovery
I can't understand what is going on... can someone provide some insite
THank you!
While Im at it, anyway to remove the yellow warning sign
I think i need a stock kernel to flash , is there one available for bell s2
ive flashed the ZS OZS KG2 root CF kernel as of now only
hi,
I found this thread really helpful
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193695
I don't think there is a dedicated Clockwork Mod for the bell version yet. But this is the next best thing.
Ive flashed a few roms with this and it works fine.
I used the jig method to reset the yellow triangle. hopefully you have one on hand
You don't need rom manager, the kernel that you flashed already has cwm recovery.
then why cant I reboot into CWM?
was the rom manager flash what ruined it u think
shud i reflash the kernel, any one in particular for blel S2
No idea, flash the cf-root kernel for your firmware(kg2 i take it)
Like peach said, just flash cf-root, any kg2. I just got my phone today and its already rooted. You wont need rom manager. cf-root installs an app called cwm which will boot you into recovery.
You can't use cwm with chainfire's rooted kernel. Boot into recovery with the one included in the rooted kernel.

Ive installed cwm recovery to root but i need to restore my tab 2 10 p5100 back to the stock recovery and remove cwm recovery.
Please can someone help and give me some directions and relevant stock recovery zip so I can do this.
Thanks.

Why stock recovery.....?
If you rooted your device your warranty is void.
I think the only way of getting stock recovery back is by flashing your tab
with a stock firmware.

Do not forget if you want to return to warranty service to use triangle away app to reset counter after flashing stock firmware

So i rooted my tab, and attempted to flash a custom recovery i saw on here, but I suppose it was for an earlier version of the tab not compatible with this one, so whenever i attempt to boot up into recovery it says could not boot into os or something along those lines. I currently have no way to get into my recovery and can't seem to find a .img file to flash, you guys have any insight? OS boots up fine, just no recovery available.
It boots to OS ? Root is gone , which custom recovery did you have?

Root is still intact. The only problem is no recovery. I've looked everywhere for the stock recovery .Img with no luck, and there doesn't seem to be any custom recoveries either.

Flash cfauto in odin since you most likely already have it. It'll reinstall stock recovery or you'll be able to find the stock img in his thread posted by a user asking for support.
it recovery for firmware via ODIN

Thank you good sir, you're a life saver.
Fellow SM-T530NU here, hoping we can get some rom building and customizing going on got a couple good ideas for recoveries. with a little knowhow i think the note 2 10.1 2.8 TWRP may work if modified a bit?
Semi-working recovery for our device can be found here along with source code. hopefully someone can make some sense of it
