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.

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.

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.

My specs are as followed:
firmware 2.2
baseband version i9000UGJL2
Kernal Version 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #6
Mind you also that when I go on stock recovery, it says <3e>. I know that there is some troubles with that.
Well, you just have to flash a kernel that includes CWM (flash with Odin, put it into PDA-field, boot into download mode, connect your Galaxy with your PC and press 'Start').

I had the same setup as you, including 3e recovery. I flashed speedmod k13e kernel for froyo, using odin, and it included cwm 2.5.1.0. Just leave it at that and you should always get into cwm when booting into recovery. Anytime I tried to upgrade cwm, or use rom manager, it just screwed it all up and reverted to stock 3e recovery. So I would advise against trying that stuff.
Good luck1

yep you and the guy above me were right indeed. Flashed it and it all works perfectly now
However there are some problems I've encountered, which i will post another thread about. They aren't Major problems but they are annoying ones nonetheless.
Alright I have searched all day and can not seem to find a resolution to my problem. It is my fault I shouldn't fix something that isn't broke but it has resulted in issues and I would appreciate it if someone could help me.
I had twrp 2.5.0.2 installed running GE 4.2.2 ROM with MF3 radios installed and GE kernel v11. I saw twrp had a update to 2.6.0.0 and I decided to install it via goo manager it booted up in recovery with the "the software is unauthorized by att" screen and I can do volume down + power after that to reboot phone and not have issues as far as getting my phone booted and working on all the above. But the problem I am having now I have lost custom recovery. I have tried goo manger again as well as some on click root/recovery methods from these forums and all result in the same back to the unauthorized screen mentioned above its like it won't boot into a custom recovery. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Maybe try ROM manager and install cwm .it will pop up in ROM manager as the T-Mobile s4 but that's what I used to install the first recovery image,then I used that recovery to flash the auto Loki recovery.I have used the same plain auto Loki recovery since then.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
Just tried that as well. Still not working. When I takes me to that unauthorized page top left it says "secure fail: kernel". But when I reboot the phone normal it comes up just fine....so that tells me its getting past with Loki to boot up my ROM and kernel but for some reason it will not take a custom recovery anymore when I have had one installed previously.

If memory serves me right the Google Edition ROM will make TWRP / GooMananger think you have a 9505(G) and thus it will install that version. So you installed a non-loki'd recovery.
Use Odin, go back to AMDL firmware. (Take SIM out before doing so so it wont download the AMF3 update). Redo Root + Recovery. BEFORE you flash another rom, install GooManager and then update from there. You will be running stock firmware so it will identify the model correctly. Then flash your custom ROM.
Forgive me for being noob when it comes to Odin. But does this OTA the software or will I need to get Odin on my desktop?

Download Free version of Rom Manager and after install see if it will not install which ever you want through it CWM or TWRP. Way I do it. You are Rooted???? Here is link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.rommanager&hl=en After install open and click on "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" then it gives you choice of CWM or TRWP
I already tried rom manager after rooting the phone, and get the success message as well. But when i restart phone in recovery mode , I am still getting stock recovery options instead of CWM or TRWP.

You can't install custom recoveries. Our bootloader is locked. Your only option is using safestrap
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
U can't install a traditional recover. Since U are on NB1, your baseband is locked and your only option is Safestrap (TWRP). Read the instructions carefully at least once all the way thru and then proceed. Pay close attention because it's not like most phones. It works just fine. U can have a heavily modified Touch Wiz Rom or even now a AOSP based Google Play Edition Rom.
Proceed here:
[INDEX] All things AT&T MK2, NB1, and NC1 (including ROMs

I am trying to install custom rom , without safestrap. As bootloader is locked on my phone , I cant use CWM.
Using safestrap , I was able to install [AOSP] Official 4.4.3 - S4 Google Edition. but now I am not able to encrypt my phone.
Any idea on how to encrypt phone now ?
