I tried installing a new ROM and kernal on my continuum using the CWM and now when I start up my phone the whole screen is just a bunch of random colors I did a backup and restore and now its starts up in the discolored screen then a voice says restore and the phone restarts PLEASE HELP
which rom and kernel?
rom dl17 clean
kernel pbJ
I think I forgot to reboot and installed them both before rebooting i can still get into cvm and tried my restore but still have same issue except now it just constantly has a womans voice saying restore and the phone restarts
You need to install another kernel.... Install Adryn's kernel through cwm... You can easily find it in development... You flashed a voodoo kernel without knowing what you were getting your self into and how to fix it if it went wrong, *tisk tisk*
If you need more help, just ask

ok i figured out how to get this kernel installed but now it just sits at the SAMSUNG white startup screen what do I do now?
ok now I tried this
If that doesn't work, which is probably won't, then reflash the stock recovery, then try the cwm v4 adryn recovery, then try the stock kernel, and then the system image, all in Odin... In that order
and its starts up like it used to and gets stuck at the Verizon Wireless screen?
You can do your backup now...

Helpful fella, that guy.
Hey guys, so I flashed the novoodoo kernel last night and when I rebooted it put me into a boot loop, I tried to restore my back-up and it said it failed to unmount /system I did a factory reset and it took care of the loop and my phone is fine now with novoodoo installed but I can't find out why I can't restore my back-ups... and I'm using the yellow clockwork for back-up and restore
Honestly i've been doing a crap ton of research on all this since I got my phone back in January and I really feel like I'm missing something small and obvious

Ah, alright... well, yellow isn't that good at restoring... try blue! Lol

First off, Kaoscinate V5 is in a very early stage, and you should not expect everything to work. Wifi is one of those things. That is one of the things that is not yet supported, so I am not surprised that Wifi didnt work in it. I would go install Adrenalynes Fix All DI01, then the EB01 Modem, EB01 rom, etc...
I knew it would be buggy, I have never tested a newer rom before and did not realize the issues can move from rom to rom when restoring.

Yeah, it kinda sucks, but just get you a good healthy backup, then a good titanium backup. Then worst case you can odin and be right back where you were in twenty minutes. Worth it for me to be able to try out all this cool new stuff.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I will have to do that, I keep titanium up to date. I am going to play with just rom some more I will just have to have a process to recover faster if it happenes again. Thanks for the input.

I am assuming this may be something simple to most but I can't figure it out.
In the rooted version of GB I just flat out can't get into CWR.
I have tried all different button combos at startup as well as the Reboot into recovery option in Rom Manager and just can't get there.
Suggestions?

Phone Hangs on Motorola Logo
Hi folks,
I flashed a ROM through ROM Manager and told it to back up, wipe, etc... it went through all the steps... backed up the old ROM... installed the new one..
Now it hangs on Boot at the Motorola Logo. Won't go any further and the phone will not boot back into Clockwork Recovery. All that happens is the default Blue recovery panel comes up and only lets me select to flash update.zip.
This of course does not work and installation aborts.
Any ideas here?
Thanks,
Chris

When you get into stock recovery, perform a factory reset/wipe multiple times. It works the same as Clockwork on this aspect.
I have the same problem. Ron manager never got me into cwm. I can use bootstrap to get into cwm but it will only allow me to use the volume buttons. When I use the power button it will appear to work but all that happens is the screen flashes. I have Uninstalled Rom manager but I think I have to delete the cwm file for it to actually function. Anyone have some ideas.
Sorry to bother everybody once again but i ran into a little problem.
i tried restoring my image file from cwm and it just froze into the samsung screen, i tried clearing all the data,cache and dalvik and still wont work.
so i tried to flash odin files dj20 system and kernel and it worked for a while but when i restarted the phone it keeps going to the recovery screen, i do not know what else i can do. i tried so many searches on this forum and google and i cant find a way that works for me, so i am stuck at the recovery screen. please help.

If you don't have one, then flash the DL17 clean rom...
Your radio is fine, btw xD

i dont think my radio is fine anymore, i was too impatient that i flashed the dl09 radio.
well i did alot, i cant really tell you what i did in exact order because there was too much at 4 in the morning after working on this for 6 hours but here we go:
odin cwm recovery
used new update.zip from cwm forum
tried flashing adryns rom and imnuts kernel
tried flashing dj20 system and kernel
fixed permissions
tried nandroid restore
used "magical fix"
had to reinstall my drivers for samsung because of magical fix
repartition device via odin
reflashed dj20 system and kernel via odin
radio file not working so i flashed dl09(because i was too impatient and panicking)
turned on, set up phone, turn off, download mode,
odin cwm recovery with former update.zip
cwm flashed adrynalynes rom and peanutbutterjelly kernel
rebooted, then rebooted back to recovery,
restored nandroid backup
phone works once again
i do not know if that helps, well thats all i did, and i believe it was it that order
You officially just tbagged your self now when it comes to updates xP
I told you nothing was wrong with the modem
Yes, a fascinate modem might work on our phone, but Now if we get an update, your not going to be able to flash it xP lol...
if this doesn't bother you, that's okay xD but if it does, there might be something you can do (aka... Pm me xP)

You'll be able to flash an update via Clockwork when a ROM is created so I wouldn't worry too much.

I updated to EI22, stock w/OTA update. I then rooted and things were working great. Then about 1 week ago, I did a CWM backup and when I restarted the phone just kept automatically rebooting approx. every 3 -4 minutes. I could not stop it no matter what I did. Then I restored the backup and it worked fine. A few days later, I turned the power off to put in a my extra battery, and when I turned it on, the same thing happened. I had to restore twice fir it to stop this time. Then this morning, I did a reboot to see what would happen, and again it happened. Mind you it was working flawless before I restarted it. I have tried everything from removing programs, turning off the wifi, leaving the battery out for a half hour, but nothing. Sometimes after it reboots, I leave it alone for 15 minutes and then when I hit the power button, it just restarts.
Any ideas before I put back froyo??
Sounds like a bad flash. I would Odin all the way to Stock EC05 then root then flash a Gingerbread ROM. Your error is either in the kernel or recovery to happen immediately after boot. It could even be a flaky partition table.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
OK. Funny, I flashed backed to a stock EC05 and did the OTA update so as to possible avoid any problems like this.

I figured that but the problem may lie in the rooting which required you to flash a kernel or in your recovery module.

ADW was nice enough to bring up a crash report that I emailed myself. In the stack trace I see that android Package manager has died as a cause of the exception. I am not a java programmer so am at a loss here to what's happening.

So I flashed to the ACS ICS rom and so far no problems. What a great ROM!! Many thanks to Marcusant and ACS.

don't use the OTA.
just root ec05, flash CWM 5, flash modem update ec05 to EI22, flash a rom of your choosing. it's that simple. i don't see why people go the OTA route. it just causes problems with the recovery.
EDIT: also if you want Rom manager, check the kernel(or rom) for compatibility.

It was not supported for the Epic before but with the new CWM5 it is. It is much faster to boot into recovery from ROM Manager rather than powering down and 3 fingering into it. Plus ROM Manager supports renaming your backups when you are doing them. Also ROM Manager will continuously update your CWM if new versions come out. There is also OTA updates available if the developer supports it on their ROM.
Can anyone explain to me why everytime I do a factory reset/ wipe of my device (vibrant 3g).. and I reboot, it gets stuck on the Samsung vibrant screen, can't get into cwm with buttons or stock recovery, and have to Odin myself out of brick mode..
Also.. I realized that I don't have the stock navigation on my phone and Google maps takes foreverrrrrrrr to lock on..in fact it hasn't locked on once since I had the phone.
Rooted, and CWM on 2.1 eclair stock.
TIA

I don't know why it would brick. Are you factory resetting from cwm or while the phone is on under settings. Also the vibrant has extremely crappy GPS. The newer ROMs have files that help it lock on better but the vibrant just still has crappy gpd

When I bought the phone (used for 50 buxx) guy I bought it from said he did a fact data wipe while phone was on under settings.. the phone was on the vibrant screen when he handed it to me. After he left, still stuck on vibrant screen. I decided after realizing phone was bricked that I would Odin myself out...which I did, then rooted and flashed cwm. Tried flashing a custom rom so I data wiped and restored from cwm before installing rom. After rom loaded bam stuck on vibrant again.. even after reflashing rom twice. Odin'd out again :/
Now I reluctantly tried again with cm7 but decided I would try just wiping cache/dalvik from cwm and BAM! bootlooped at cyan7 screen, reflashed cm7 and wazambamboozle! Now running cm7 flawlessly.

To tell you the truth I have no idea why its doing that. But if you want a clean flash every time you could just Odin back then wipe dalvik and cache then just flash over it
