I installed ClockworkMod Recovery using ROM Manager and I'm trying to boot into recovery, when it restarted it verified the stuff then got stuck on "Replacing Stock Recovery with Clockwork Recovery", it's now been like that for 8 hours.
It's the White version and I don't use the phone with it so it has no SIM card at the moment.
Do you have root? If it won't continue, download the recovery from here. Make sure there is no images folder on your memory card.
Then boot your phone while holding vol+ vol- and power. When your phone is in pink screen, plug it into computer and copy recovery.img and backup the exisisting one and then overwrite it. Then reboot the phone by taking battery off, and boot it while holding vol+, you should be done.
That worked I now have clockwork mod recovery but when i select reboot system now it boots back into recovery. How do I now apply miui image when I don't already have it on the sdcard.
Just tried applying at it keeps rebooting into recovery.

So I was rooted with Clockword recovery. I just updated rom manager to 3.0.0.0 and flashed the new recovery image with it. Through the UI, I tried to do a backup but when the phone restarted, it was stuck at the fastboot screen. I tried to manually go into Recovery, but the screen goes black -> google -> fastboot. Tried to turn it off and hold volume ^ + power = fastboot but still can't get into recovery.
Advice?

As long as you can still get into fastboot you should be recoverable. Head over the development section and grab a copy of the CWM 2 recovery image and try re-flashing it. That should at least put you back to where you can get into Recovery.
You could also try the stock recovery image in one of the threads there, but I've seen reports that it doesn't boot either.
Here's the thread for it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875875

I have a TF101 with Megatron installed. I also have an HTC Thunderbolt. I believe at some point in using the tablet I entered recovery through the preinstalled Rom Manager, and now am stuck in a recovery boot loop. I can access the system by holding down Volume+ and Power, then letting the system cold boot. The system has Recovery Touch 5.8. I tried installing roaches recovery, and it said successful, but it still reboots into 5.8. I do not have direct access to a Windows Machine for a long while. i do have complete remote desktop access to a Windows 7 Machine over the internet, and access to my Thunderbolt. Is there anyway to fix this boot loop with what I have available to me? Thanks for any help.

As i understand you can cold boot you tablet. Method when tablet of hold volume - and power button till too white lines of text appear in left upper corner. Let go of the button and wait for it to cold boot up.
Then go online with your tablet to this topic
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213723
This topic is especially for bootloop problems with recovery. Our tablet can for some reason not handle if your boot into recovery throug rom manager.
Now in the above topic pick an earlier build of cwm and download it onto tablet. Then go back into recovery and flash this recovery the normal way as install zip from sd card (internal memory is that for the tablet )
Now you should be able to normal boot the os. If it after flashing still only boots into recovery your not able to flash recovery. And that can be solved by flashing cwm 3.2.0.1 from the same topic. Afterward you can flash touch recovery over the 3.2.0.1 to be updated.
Download ClockworkMod Recovery v5.5.0.4 roach-tf101-r2 from here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=934821&d=1331070176
Place the recovery zip on the sdcard where clockworkmod can read it.
Reboot into recovery using "adb reboot recovery" or "hold volume down and power for 3 seconds, let go of power only, then press volume up when prompted on screen"
In recovery, select flash zip from sdcard and select the recovery zip you downloaded
Once it has flashed the zip file, don't reboot but hold power button to shot down
Power on your device and boot in android. Download terminal emulator from market and type this:
Code:
su
echo boot | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=0
Reboot
earlier today, i was trying to make a backup, but i had the red exclamation logo when i went into clockwork mod recovery mod, so i flashed a newer version of clockwork mod using flashboot fast boot. After that, clockwork mod worked, and i made my ndroid back up. now, i cant leave clockwork mod. if i select "reboot system now", clockwork mod would open again. i am able to get into bootloader mode by holding onto volume up and power, but if i press "start", it would go back into clockwork mod.i also tried to restore the phone using the backup, but that didnt help..is there anyway i can get out of clockwork mod?
Do you have a ROM installed?
no, it's only rooted
maybe u can try flash TWRP. to check maybe it can boot up your rom.
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.

It's very strange - I can't get to recovery by holding down power + vol-up + home buttons. The message comes up that it's booting recovery but then disappears for a second and then either powers off or boots normally.
I can boot into recovery through the toolkit/odin/goomanager however and I've also found that I can boot into recovery if I first go into download mode, press vol-down to cancel download and boot normally and then immediately press the vol-up/power/home button combination.
I have TWRP installed but I previously had philz CWM and this problem happened with both. If i remember rightly the first recovery I tried to install was the original CWM with odin but when I booted into recovery it was still the stock recovery. I'm not sure if this information is necessary though.
Can anyone help me with this or why this could be happening?

When was the last time you updated SuperSU?
Go to the playstore and download/install the latest version reboot the phone normally and after reboot reboot into recovery.
Good luck!
Thanks, that worked. I can now get into recovery with the button combo.
