For those trying to load the R2 Image using CWM you need to put the update file in /mnt/sdcard2/ that is what shows up in the CWM interface. I did it and it worked for me.
selecting the image to boot?

If you're using CM or other CM based rom then you can unlock using menu button.
You need to enable it from CyanogenMod settings.
nope im on carbon v1.1
Also i have cynogenmod 7.1 in my sd card but i can't control anything in CWM recovery coz the power button is not working.
Try twrp recovery. You can flash it via terminal and in that recovery the home soft key acts as the power button.
Good luck

use rom manager to reboot your phone in to the CWM re install your cm 7 also you can add lock screen in your power widget to lock the phone. and use wolume rocker wake in cm settings/input to wake phone.

The clockwork recovery also functions with soft keys.
Menu and home for up and down and search for select.

Ok thanks.
go to the market and download Fix Broken Power Button
its that simple. it'll solve all you're problems
no need for hacks!
If you use WidgetLocker, you can set it to wake on volume key press.
thanks for the info guys.
Dunno about nexus s, but ns4g can use the softkeys for CWM 5.0.2.0.....no need for power button
So do you resolve?
Yep as of now i am using CM7.1.0.1 but fix the power button app also works properly.
@hp420 even on the nexus S we can use softkeys in CWM.
Now, i can't go into recovery, it only display Forced upload by key pressing.
I try so many times, but i can't
How can i fix it?
thanks so much
Forced upload is activated when you on press Home + Vol up + Power. You have to press Home + Vol up + Vol down + Power to boot into recovery mode.

Another option is to use an app like "Quick Boot" which allows you to reboot your phone directly into recovery without any hardware buttons.

There's an app called boot to recovery in Play Store(Market). Install it and press boot to recovery and it will bring you there...
Using the vol and power button sometime a little tricky..
Have that installed but nothing, just reboots as normal

I think your recovery was never been flashed somehow..
Instead you may try get the recovery installer.apk and use it to install recovery. Next use the boot to recovery app to boot your TF101 to CWM..

Boot to recovery app is the way to go!

Yeah it should take you to cwm if you have one install. What method did you use to install cwm recovery?
Few days ago an official CWM recovery was made from the ClokworkMod team for our device. Here you can find the link for the site to download or you can download the ROM Manager app from the play store. It's version 6.0.2.7 and it is the latest version.
It's official so don't ask if it work, cos it works.

Play Store link
This has nothing to do with me, it's not my work, i'm just sharing the info!

Find a backup of original recovery.img for i8190 and put it on your external sd.
Use Terminal emulator with "dd if=/storage/extSdCard/recovery.img of=dev/block/mmcblk0p21" command, and it will be written to your recovery partition.
What different between CWM recovery and original recovery?
Is both support three key combo reboot? Volume up + home + power when phone starting..... or how?
Which is better for usage?

You can't reset it not yet.
Why did you even flash it with Odin? You should've asked me to make a flashable zip with stock recovery, like the ones you saw in other CWM topics.
But most importantly, why did you reflash stock recovery in the first place?
I`m not able to access CWM recovery mode by holding down the 'HOME' + 'VOLUME UP' buttons and press the 'POWER' button for about 5 seconds . The phone show me a black screen and reboot again , if try again to enter recovery mode I face same reboot , if no key are pressed is just booting normally . Strange is that TWRP recovery is working perfectly with the combination of vol up + menu + power
