Did you delete the install_recovery.sh file with root explorer?

In /system/etc.
That's only if you had Tenfars recovery installed beforehand though. Might want to make sure your downloading the right version from RomRacers thread. Also make sure your downloading the one one the right side (the CWM flashable one) and not the fastboot version.

Just reflash ROM Manager CWM in the app, and use that to flash Aura. Should work. Rom Managers version works, most just prefer RomRacers.
Have you tried installing RomRacers CWM via fastboot? Instructions in his OP (the .zips on the left side).

I had the same issue..
Download ES file explorer and go to settings..
Select "Mount file system - Mount /system as writable"
Delete or rename install-recovery.sh.
Boot into fast boot (power and volume down) press up volume when u see fast boot.
Plug in usb.. start fastboot
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
You will now have a working CWM.
install-recovery.sh cannot be renamed/deleted because the file system is read-only
so how do i delete it? >.<
nvm got it
Preambula:
When Grif_07 compiled his CM, as a result he got a new version of the CWM.
The CWM text color changed to blue.
After the flash you will get a cyclic reboot CWM, as is the case with the installation of CWM by means of Rom Manager.
Functions not tested. So it is not responsible for the performance. Solely for testing purposes.
How to install:
Flash in recovery.
Ambula:
thanks to Grif_07 and ketut.kemujaya we have fully working CWM 5.0.2.6.
Download here.
Proof
I'll try, maybe the boot cyclic to CWM problem comes from the kernel that I could fix or you can try to flash back the boot image (boot.img) after flashing the recovery image. I have an experience even using a fixed kernel I got boot cyclic and resolved by flash back the boot image.

It does not help with bootloop on this version CWM(
P.S. flash this CWM and try to make a backup - get error when backup boot.img(
Flash back to CWM 4... - bootloop, flash boot.img - normal boot.

To return from recovery, our kernel need to call reboot with recovery_done option.
(you can test this - while in CWM5, try to run reboot recovery_done, you should back to Android).
Fixed using CF-Root's CWM4 kernel (a kernel with a patched pm2.c, thanks to ilarrain) and add 2 lines command to init.rc to load jbd2 and ext4 modules.
For CyanogenMod 7.1 and advance user only for now!
How to flash:
- Boot your device into CWM recovery
- Push recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyace.img to your device using "adb push recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyace.img /tmp/" command
- Login to your device over "adb shell"
- Mount /system using "mount /dev/block/stl12 /system" command
- Flash CWM recovery using "flash_image recoveryonly /tmp/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyace.img" command
- Umount /system using "umount /system" command
- Reboot your device using "reboot recovery" command to test your new CWM recovery
- Reboot your device
Not fully tested and have no enough space to try the backup/restore function
EDIT:
Recovery flashable zip added.
EDIT2:
Please try the *-fix.zip version.
Changelog:
- mount, umount, and rm scripts taken from my CF-Root-S5830 CWM to fix mount error problem
- /etc/recovery.fstab changed to mount /sd-ext partition and to fix recovery backup problem
EmoBoiix3 and Lovetz, waiting for your report
EDIT3:
The fix version almost same as clockwork-5.0.2.6 I have modified before and shared here by Grif_05, except:
- remove a garbage file
- ext4 support compiled in kernel, not as a module
- using new Samsung proprietary modules taken from DXKPD

Hey guys, I'm new to XDA and have been struggling to fix this problem of mine. I was recently flashing a custom rom and my phone entered a boot loop. I went to the recovery mode and tried installing it again, rebooting, and factory reset, all of which did not work. Also I do not have a nandroid on the phone. I'm hoping to put a different rom onto the sd and installing it in an attempt to get out of this boot loop. Any help would be much appreciated.
Use adb or fastboot to flash the rom directly of your PC.

Just use ADB if you're in the recovery.
Put the ROM.zip in the same folder as your cmd window is in and type
adb push ROM.zip /storage/emulated/0/
does mount usb storage in clockworkmod still work ?
just checked... no there is no option for that, too bad it was useful

So I've gotten to this part and I'm not seeing "Mount USB Storage". The options it gives me are "mount system, mount data, mount cache, and mount sd card". I tried selecting mount sd card and it will not select. Maybe my phone is acting up??
You cant mount the phone as storage while in recovery, what you have to do is use adb sideload in the advance menu. more info here: http://teamw.in/ADBSideload what it does is move the zip to the phone and install, because of the way our phone works its easier to just have your rom and gapps already on the phone before you enter the recovery.
I just fixed it. Turns out the root toolkit I had was able to push the files onto my phone. I feel like a retard but I really do appreciate the help from everyone. Thanks. :good:
So when I tried flashing the rom it gave me an error "No file_contextssymlink: some symlinks failed (status 7) Installation aborted"
so after wiping data cache and dalvik, I tried reflashing my previous 4.3 rom, and It gave me the same error! although I flashed it yesterday and it worked fine. help? Is there anyway I can add roms unto my phone while in recovery?
I'm using CWM as my recovery.

2. Reboot into bootloader (

Go to your Android SDK folder -> platform-tools

Run CMD from this folder and type what I wrote.

Did you type "fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.3-mako.img"? because it seems like you typed "recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.3-mako.img" or something that starts with it.
Make sure your device is in Bootloader while typing this.
