Hey, I recently rooted my phone, had superuser permissions, and was able to to see the cwm recovery menu. However, whenever I select something from the menu, the screen only shows the CWM logo and thats it. I have to do a battery pull every time. Why does it do this?
My S=Off and I am running cwm 5.0.2.0. I'm confused on how to fix this.

I permrooted, and flashed cwm3.0.0.5 and flashed cm 7 build 23 on my glacier. It didn't work and would not boot post the animation, the animation kept looping. So I flashed the stock system since it would not restore my backups and did a factory reset. Now I have no recovery. I rerooted up to the s-on part (can't find the root file for s-off) installed rom manager and that says I successfully flashed a new recovery. I tried this with earlier versions of clockwork and each time I'm greeted with a black screen, and red triangle/exclamation point. How do I get my recovery back?

It isn't possible to install clockwork recovery unless you are s=off, so you will need to do that before you can get cw to install.

Ok, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but cm7 will not boot. The boot animation keeps looping. I let it run for about 10 min before trying again and same thing. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone help?

try with build 26 (newly released), use CWM 3.0.0.5, and make sure to wipe data, cache and dalvik cache. Let me know if that works, or what happens.

you need to get an sbf file of 2.2.1 and then use rsd lite to flash it to your phone... then you can use clockwork to get back.
I understand that. I'm trying to wipe data to clear up the constant sync error except I have no way of wiping data. Make sense?

Recovery Access in GB
Besides using a reboot into rocovery app, you can also shut down the phone, then pull the battery, put the battery back in and the normal Vol Down + Power will get you into Clockwork Recovery. Seems like GB is in some kind of stand by mode even when you power it down.
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?

I found out that if you turn off debugging on the phone the DX Bootstrap will work fine.
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.
hey guys, Im new to the forums. I have an HTC Desire HD on Telus, joined to ask some genreal questions about rooting, Cyanogen Mod 7, etc.
Anyway, I recently got Cyanogenmod on my phone, and installed the Telus kernel thing at the end (following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954997). Anyway, the guide wasnt perfect here:
"2- Copy Telus Kernel.zip to your SD card from the "Step 2 - Telus Kernel" folder.
3- Run Kernel Update Utility (in the "Step 3 - Kernel Update Utility" folder) and click "Select a cwm zip", then click next, then click Go to fastboot, wait for the white bootloader screen on your phone, then click Flash. Once it's done, it'll reboot back into Android."
I wasn't sure what to select as a cwm.zip...so I chose the telus kernel zip in the "Step 2 - Telus Kernel" Folder. everything went fine until boot up. It just hung at the HTC turn on screen...and I couldnt even get into reboot recovery. Sent it in and now I have a new one...Still want CyanogenMod. Just dont wanna screw it up a second time. Thanks for any help

What you should of done is hold vol- and power button and that would of took you to recovery.
Anyways, from personal experience i've flashed different kernel to try out a number of times, my advice is to copy the kernel into your sd card and boot into recovery and flash the kernel as you would flash a rom..
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
hey, ya I tried the down volume plus power, it did nothing. anyway, maybe Ill try it that way. boot into recovery and flash it from there. The Telus kernel is so that I can hear out of the earspeaker correct?
That's right.. Boot into recovery and flash the kernel. The utility is just an automation of that process as far as I understand.

So why did my phone brick then? And can you tell me the process once in reboot recovery? Like what I should do before actually installing it? Such as wipe the cache, etc.

Technically if you phone booted into the boot screen , it wasn't bricked. whatever that was flashed caused a boot loop.
1. Hold Vol- and power button, wait for it to boot and release the keys.
2. select the option install zip from sdcard
3. Find the kernal and select it.
4. Once flashed select reboot system now.
All done
So that is for the ear speaker then?

What's it for then? Why would I have to put it on after I get cyanogen mod? When I had it on my last phone (before it got fixed) just the phone feature didn't work...texting worked though...i don't understand what it is meant for...i know it's a total noob question, but I have to ask lol

From your initial post
I wasn't sure what to select as a cwm.zip...so I chose the telus kernel zip
Click to expand...

you flashed a kernel to your recovery partition, which will have at least stopped it rebooting into recovery, what you should have done is returned to fastboot and flashed clockwork recovery and all would have been working.
Oh...so I should just do the whole thing from sd on the card in reboot recovery?

I am running ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0
I'm running cyanogenmod 7.2 and I wasn't really trying to do anything. Just checking the options in recovery mode because I am preparing to sell this phone.
But now I can't get out of recovery. If I select reboot now I just get the clockwordmod recovery logo and it just sits there. Same thing if I select turn phone off.
Has this ever happened to anyone before?! Please help.
Again I wasn't trying to flash anything...change anything...really do anything. And I've been running CM7 for quite a while without issue so not sure why this is happening now.
Any help much appreciated!
Yes I do have a nandroid but it isn't very current so I'd prefer not to use it (not sure it would work anyway) if I don't have to.
Thanks in advance!

Yeah I guess I was worried that would completely brick the phone but it actually did the trick. Thanks.
Still curious what I can do to prevent this from happening in the future...as I would like to sell a fully functioning stable phone.

I have this same problem, except it does it every time I boot to recovery. I prefer to use recovery to flash roms over the rom manager, but any tiime i make a selection from the main menu, it just shows the clockwork logo and doesn't go anywhere. Does anyone know how to fix it so that I could navigate recovery?
