I have flashed CWM multiple times through Odin but everytime I reboot try to get into CWM I only get options for USB or Download mode. What am I doing wrong.
Also I cant get the Kies to connect to the device at all.
Its a LE 10.1 from IO
Thanks
Kies...have you unticked (unchecked) USB debugging in settings>applications>development and/or have you installed the correct Samsung drivers for the tab in Windows (assuming you're using windows) ?
IO tab came with a boot image that gives the option of fastboot/download when using the two button combo so you can push cwr with odin as many times as you like but that will not help...what you have done is changed the sos (recovery) image in partition 4 to cwr from the standard android recovery, but not the option to access that image...
As your tab stands you can only access cwm by rebooting from adb or fastboot using the appropriate command... ie "adb reboot recovery"
If you want to have recovery/download when using the two button combo you'll have to change the boot image using nvflash or odin
I also have a question, I installed "Ra" into my CMW as a alternate recovery, but now "RA" has be come my default recovery. I want to retain CMW as my main recovery. I deleted CMW and down-loaded it from Market, only to have "RA" still being my default recovery. I want CMW!!!

Not quite sure how on earth it would be possible to have an "alternate recovery"...there is only one recovery partition on the nvidia tegra chip
If you are rooted, install rom manager (if you don't have it already) and reinstall ClockworkMod Recovery from there

Hello,
I recently unlocked, rooted, and CWM (Recovery) my Nexus 7 and everything seemed fine with a custom rom installed aswell.
Just now I edited mymedia_profiles.xml for 720p video mod and rebooted device now stuck at google screen. Even in bootloader when I select recovery it goes strright to google screen and stays stuck.
How do I fix this
If u can't get into recovery u could flash the nexus 7 stock image

Thanks all for help sorted it out.
Re flashed the custom recovery using adb fastboot (Google Nexus 7 Toolkit) all fine now but strange that recovery failed.
After editing a xml file
Its a bug with the 7’s bootloader. You can't get into recovery directly from the bootloader without having the USB plugged into a computer or you can just select reboot into recovery from the power menu on PA or any CM based rom. There are a couple of apps that allow you to reboot into recovery as well like rom manager and rom toolbox... The modified XML file had nothing to do with it.
Hello everyone,
I just installed TWRP via goomanager and when i use "reboot recovery" in goo manager menu: TWRP works fine.
But when i use ROM toolbox lite for reboot into bootloader then i chose simply "Start" or "Recovery mode" i'm also stuck at google logo...
I don't understand one thing, we only can enter into bootloader mode with an android app, we can't do that when we power on the tablet for the first time?
Sorry for my approximate english.
Yes that is correct. Its a bug with the boot loader. You can plug the 7 into a computer USB and it will let you into recovery from the boot loader. This WILL NOT work with a charger though... I know it sucks. Hopefully Google will fix it in future updates.

For all those who have problem getting to recovery mode after connecting the USB cable to computer, follow the "Configure Drives" step from this link.

Its worth reinstalling the drivers if its already installed.
I have done adb reboot bootloader
my bootloader is unlocked
but here is where it gets weird for me...
I am trying to install SuperSU-v0.87.zip
and it says
Use the volume keys to highlight Recovery Mode,
Use the power button to select it.
which is easy enough, but when I do this I get an android with a triangle and exclamation mark...
which blocks me from the next progression;
Once in recovery, select Install zip from SD Card
Select choose zip
Choose SuperSU-v0.87.zip, then select yes to install
If I press vol. up and power I get clockwork screen but cannot access default recovery - is there any way to get rid of the CWM I have installed and start over?
Or even better - any way to access stock recovery mode without getting the dreaded android-triangle-bang?
please help
just trying to get superuser to add stickmount
thx
the dreaded android-triangle-bang is the stock recovery. reflash your custom recovery via fastboot and delete the recovery-from-boot.p file in /system/ so that your custom recovery doesnt disappear.
Hi there,
I wanted to install latest CM10.1 coming from 0526 yesterday on my Defy+.
Did a backup with TWRP first.
Then the flashing failed, so I wanted to recover from backup.
Phone now is stuck at Motorola M not booting anymore.
When I enter bootloader (vol down) and want to enter "custom recover" he just jumps back to the same menu. TWRP is not starting.
Choosing "stock recovery" is possible, but if I choose a CM10.1 zip file it's not accepted.
RSD Lite does not recognize the phone when it's in the bootloader menu or in the stock recover menu.
Help is very much appreciated, what can I do?
Thanks and best regards.

Okay, I found out why I couldn't enter flash mode by using Vol+ when starting.
The phone powered already up when I put in the battery, so I always pushed Vol+ too late.
Pressing Vol+ WHILE inserting the battery did the trick, phone went into flash mode and I could re-flash 2.3.6 sbf using RSD lite.

Still not sure why TWRP was messed up just by recovering from a TWRP-made backup...
Best regards
Same situation to me.
I opened Terminal Emulator, gained root access
then type below command to get recovery mode
# reboot recovery
Custom recovery not running
I have a similar issue.
I rooted my stock S4 and installed the proper TWRP.
Heres where my situation is a bit different from anything I have seen on the forum threads. All attempts—both hard and soft—to reboot into recovery, all direct the reboot to Odin Mode. Just to clarify I have not flashed any rom custom or stock, the only thing I have flashed has been TWRP and CWM recovery. And I only flashed CWM AFTER the Failings of TWRP.
When I attempt to boot into recovery, it flashes the blue characters then sends me into a Odin Mode loop until I hard-key the "download mode" and select restart to boot the os normally.
my phone works fine other than not being able to flash custom roms, which is a pain in the arse especially with all the s4 Bloatware.
Here's what I have done so far to help myself:
• install CWM recovery
• tried hard-key reboot recovery (power off/ press home/volume up/power)
• soft reboot recovery through both Goo, CWM and ROM Toolbox pro
• removed my sd card and tried reboot recovery
• removed battery and reboot recovery
• emulator reboot recovery
• reboot recovery both with and without usb cable
I looked into flashing stock with Odin but all tutorials i could find were of an older version and I didnt want to guess what I needed to get that to work,
Please let me know if theres anything I can do.

On my Note 1 I tried to update CWM-Recovery with the cwm app - and I never sticked to the device.
When installing and booting into recovery though cwm-app it worked once, but then on next reboot it got reverted to the old version again.
Later then I found out that on the galaxy devices the recovery can only be hard-flashed with odin or similar method, but not through the cwm-app.
BUT the cwm-app used install-recovery.sh or some other method to start the new recovery at least once after the first reboot.
Couldn't we maybe get a custom recovery running on our devices while still having knox untouched?
Just as a temporary boot I mean, but if that would work over adb for example, we wouldnt need to flash a recovery on the phone but instead boot the recovery over adb.
Anyone know more maybe? How does install-recovery.sh actually work, or how ccan it be used to boot a custom recovery?
Is there a way to copy the data from the internal memory. My phone won't start (out of the blue), it's stuck on the Samsung logo. I tried Safe mode, Wipe cache partition but it didn't help.
I know I should have taken some backups but I didn't. Samsung authorized service didn't help me either.
Phone is not rooted and it's running Samsung ROM.
Search question posted multiple times.But if Samsung failed then its a waste .
Personally I would flash custom recovery and custom rom without wipe .

What I read I need to have USB debugging enabled. I'm not sure whether it is enabled and if not how to proceed.
If you can boot to download mode, flash TWRP custom recovery using odin (pc). After that boot to TWRP and from there you can copy your files to memory card using twrp file manager.
I think I'm able to boot to download mode. I'm little bit worried not to mess anything up (such as delete the internal memory). Is there any step-by-step manual on how to do that? What about that USB debugging?

Does the installation process wipe internal memory? I don't want to loose photos/videos that I didn't backup.
Flashing twrp should not wipe data.
I succesfully flashed TWRP but note 3 still boots in the "regular" recovery mode. What I read Samsung ROM's replace custom recovery with the stock one. How can I fix it?
Do I need to flash TWRP again?
This worked for me:
Before you flash the recovery, untick the Auto Reboot option in ODIN. Then flash the recovery. After flashing in done, reboot your device directly to recovery mode from download mode by pressing Vol up + Power + Home button together. Now you will see the TWRP recovery is booted in your device. Now you can reboot normally and your TWRP will be installed.
