[Droid] Cant boot into Recovery. Triangle w/ cell phone - Motorola Droid and Milestone General

I rooted my phone using the SuperOneClickMethod and then installed ROM Manager and flashed clockwork mod recovery onto my phone. After this i tried to backup and install a new rom onto my phone and when i would do that it woudlnt allow me to backup and it wouldnt let the rom install. it would just bring me to a recovery screen and i would have to reboot my phone. i tried unrooting, formatting the SD card, doing a system wipe and then trying it all over again and now when i try to boot into recovery it just shows a trangle with a cell phone laying down next to it. it doesnt let me do anything i have to pull my battery to reboot it and then it goes back to normal. What do i do to fix this?
PS: my Volume Up is broken so i cant even attempt to boot into stock recovery.

If you can't enter on recovery.
I think you will need to install the original ROM, just using RSD lite.
Or search for froyo version if don't need base.

Phone Not Holding CWM?

So I am planning on to try the Bugless Beast on the wife's Moto Droid. The phone is rooted and holding root. I flash CWM via rom manager and it boots into CWM. HOWEVER !! If I re-boot the phone and then power it down and go back into recovery, it is back to stock recovery and not CWM.
How to permanently install CWM as doing it via rom manager seems to be a temporary flash? Odd ...
I'd hate to get half way through a rom flash and have it puke and be stuck with stock recovery !! Is there a link to a zip file copy of CWM I can flash onto the phone?
What am I missing here?

[Q] Can get to recovery menu, but boot hangs at logo

I was trying to update to AOKP on my Captivate. I was running GB 2.3.5. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I installed ClockWorkMod Recovery, then I added the zip file to the SD. Rebooted into recovery, and then tried "install zip from sdcard". It said that it was installed. I backed out and then tried to turn on the phone. Now I'm stuck at the AT&T logo. I finally turned the phone off after 2 hours of that. I can still get to the recovery menu, and still install zip from the sd, but I'm still stuck at the logo.
I've tried Odin, but it hangs at file analysis. Did I mention, I didn't back up anything? Only thing important to me is contacts, and they're backed up through Google.
Any ideas on how I can fix this. Point me to right thread if this is already covered.
Reboot into cwm recovery, Wipe Data/ Factory Reset, then install rom. If it boots afterwards to another cwm recovery, don't reboot the phone, just reinstall the rom from there and u should be good to go.

Still stuck at the at&t logo. According to CWM Recovery, SlimICS was installed. I'm really at a loss. Any other ideas?
Flash a stock, one-click, no bootloader, odin or heimdall package, and try again.
I was able to load stock ICS 4.0.3 Phone booted like normal. I was starting to freak out. Thanks for the help.

GT-N7000 won't start. Can go to recovery or download mode

Hi,
i have GT-N7000 with RocketRom v1 and CWM 5.? recovery.
Today i installed ROM manager and clicked on flash CWM recovery (at the time i did not know i shouldnt do that). Phone worked ok. I tried to make phone image/backup but it failed twice.
Phone rebooted but did not go to recovery and i didn't get any new files. So i went to recovery and made backup from there. I rebooted and i had this image files. Then i wiped data and tried to install back this backup. All went fine except somewhere in the midle phone rebooted by itself. Since then phone only boots to the "logo screen". I left it like that for 30minutes and it was still the same. I can go to recovery and download mode but i can not flash rom from recovery. I tried and it starts instaling rom but after few minutes of inactiveity phone reboots. I flashed recovery via ODIN and it is still the same. I also tried to install stock rom but i get error that phone can not read from /sdcard/ROM.
I realy need your help because this is company phone and they will kill me :/
I just tried to install AlianceROM and it started it installed and all it allso sayed that install was sucsessful but still nothing. When i start phone i see Samsung Galaxy logo and nothing more.
use PC odin... put the phone in download mode and install a stock GB rom.. if successfull .. before it boots .. reboot into recovery and do a wipe data factory reset, wipe cache, and wip dalvik.. then reboot

Recovery mode dont work and alway get factory reset

Hi,
I installed v30b for test but now i want to go back on cm10. I flashed a stock v20 with cwm with smartflash and i was able to boot in recovery. I tested to load my v20 rom but that alway come back to recovery, impossible to load my v20 rom. So, i tried to install cm10 and all was ok. But when i try to go in recovery mode, the phone restart without going into it and do a factory reset.
Now each time im trying to go in recovery mode, cm10 do a factory reset
What i can do for resolve this problem?
Flash cwm with rom manager
Sent from my phone powered by cm10, Big thanks to RC
Rom manager said im on 5.0.2.6. So i can only install the version 6 of cwm but it dont work(cant mount sd card)
So its impossible to install again 5.0.2.6 by rom manager. Because rom manager dont show old cwm version like before
Its very strange because before my v20cwm rom worked. Now i got boot loop in recovery mode. And if i install cm10, its impossible to go in recovery without factory reset
I tried to flash cwm with PC and i alway get "access denied" (debug on, mass storage off)
Oh yes i got it from ZEUS rom. Flashed cwm from UPK kit pack
thx!

[SOLVED] TWRP recovery missing

I have tried to boot in recovery to flash Xposed SDK only to find the phone is doing a proper reboot, even when using NDR and selecting reboot to recovery and when I hold the volume down and the Sony logo, nothing works,. I have tries using NUT's installer to add it again, although it finishes successfully the recovery isn't there, I am not bothered about flashing or wiping if I have to, but is there any other way first? Its all started when my phone won't recognise my SD Card, unless I remove it and put it back in and then on reboot its missing the card again.
Same problem
I have the same problem but do not have a computer. I was reading about it and found that after you flash a new ROM before booting it up, you have to flash recovery (especially NUTs Dual recovery) and then boot. It is weird since most ROMS have a preinstalled recovery and I do not get why we have to do this. I keep losing recovery after flashing a new ROM and will try to flash CWM. NUTs dual recovery keeps getting lost for me. I will borrow a friends laptop and get it done over the weekend.

I've never had the problem before and I have flashed this handset a few times, recovery should have went on when I flashed the pre-rooted rom as I created my own, but doesn't matter as I have already tried to put the recovery back on. I will however try another recovery.
flash recovery without PC?
Do you know anything about flashing a recovery without a PC? I have an idea but do not wanna test it without a PC at hand. What if I extract the recovery.img file and put it on my internal SD and boot the phone? Will it install the recovery? If you know of any other way please let me know

I'm sorry phone software is not my speciality, I am new to this whole flashing and recovery on phones. I really wish I could help you. However can I ask you if there is now way you can get into recovery, how can you flash it from within the phone, can the phone read img files?
