Have you tried booting into recovery? Power+volume down...

Did you try to boot without the SD card? It helped me once.

Assuming you are running a custom recovery image, go to it via the bootloader menu (Turn phone on while holding volume down, then navigate to recovery using the volume buttons and selecting recovery using the power button). You should then be able to flash the same ROM you currently have installed. If however this is a completely stock device then you could run PASSIMG.zip via the bootloader to save your current install. If you need more info just ask

how to wipe??
where is wipe option...let me tell u that i cant able to access recovery menu ..without recovery menu i cant wipe or flash the phone??
is that true?

If you can flash a rom use 2.1.1 not 2.1. Assume you are doing that thru fastboot from pc.
Also, try the 3 finger reboot to get to recovery.
Hold down pwr/vol-/trackball at sametime until phone boots into bootloader, then navigate to recovery option. Then wipe all and restore a good bu. If this happened while dl'ing apps, one may be bad. Get all of them off phone and do one at a time.

Ok, understand now.
You may have some options thru fastboot and the pc. Do you have SDK installed on pc. I am not good at that, someone else may have suggestions along those lines. Unless, as I asked, you already have used that method to flash amon ra 2.1.
If you can thru fastbboot with SDK I would still flash amon 2.1.1

I am out of ideas, sorry
Someone will get you going
Sounds like you are using SDK, it may be the way to wipe and get back to an original phone state, then reupgrade. I don't know sdk very well.
Did you try the other idea of trying to get to recovery with sd card out of phone. If you do that you may want to back it up while out of phone if you have a sd card reader
Good Luck and wait for more help

Why does this thread say solved??
Just restore a stock image.
Follow the wiki guide for unroot/restore. Use the passimg method, with the FRG33 zip, which can be found by following the link on the word "here" on step 2...

The back to stock and passimage was where I was thinking he needed to go. But, know nothing about doing that without a lot of research of my own.
Anyway glad he got it--what did he do to fix

[Q] Random colors/lines on bootscreens

Ok, so I've flashed two different roms now: Serindipity VII and Mosiac IV. After following steps:
1. flash to stock via ODIN
2. Root phone applying root.zip--->update.zip
3. install clockwork using same method
====Right here something happens which I don't understand as well. Once I reboot to recovery again, after installing CWM, the native recovery module (android recovery) is still there. I have to press install from update again to goto clockwork.
4. install mosaic or seridipity using CWM
After install, the ROM works fine. But I can no longer reboot to recovery using the power button (adb reboot recovery didnt work either). When I startup the phone it shows ATT World Phone screen and the bunch of random colors lines and then the serindipity or mosaic start screen.
I realize this is some sort of bootloader issue, but isnt that what CWM is? Thanks for any help of pointing me in the right direction

[Q] Broken Recovery Menu on Rooted Milestone

Hey everyone,
So this is definitely a noob problem and I would like to apologize in advance for taking up your time. I am extremely new to rooting and would be extremely appreciative of some advice!
I bought my phone (a Motorola Milestone) already rooted and running G.O.T. 2.2.1 back in November. I wanted to upgrade to the latest CyanogenMod 7 and, in my own stupidity, I followed a Droid tutorial instead of a Milestone tutorial. This led me to install Clockwork ROM Manager and flash their Recovery Menu - which, I've now learned, is not compatible with the Milestone.
So, I now have no access to the Recovery Menu (the phone simply boots up normally). I still have Superuser Permissions and can access the Bootloader.
What I would like your input on is the steps I should take to regain access to the Recovery Menu. I feel like, since I have root access, I shouldn't need to start from scratch (e.g. completely re-root the device), but I don't know for sure.
Is it possible to somehow just flash OpenRecovery? Or do I need to do all ofthe steps listed at addictivetips.c0m/mobile/how-to-root-motorola-milestone/?
I saw one tutorial for flashing a new recovery program (theunlockr.c0m/2009/10/15/how-to-flash-a-new-recovery-image-if-you-are-already-rooted/) and it seems easy enough. My only issue then is that OpenRecovery is not distributed as an .img file but rather as an "update.zip" and a folder.
Again, I'm sorry for using up your time with what probably is a ridiculously simplistic question. I require the phone for my work and the thought of accidentally bricking it is enough to give me pause from doing anything else. Suggestions would be really welcome!

You can flash GOT again which already has the Vulnerable Recovery in it... or just flash the vulnerable recovery itself.
Good luck.
Sent from my Milestone using XDA Premium App

The main issue there is that I never did the initial flash of GOT or vulnerable recovery (I bought the phone pre-rooted) so I don't know how exactly to go about that. In light of the end goal (I want to upgrade the phone to the latest CyanogenMod 7), what would be the least amount of steps to accomplish this?
I think if I could flash the recovery and then flash CM7 (with a backup of all my stuff somewhere in between) that would do the trick?

Can't you try that sbf flash thing? Or is that only for droids?

Try this:
1) Download RSD Lite - http://uploaded.to/file/pifx1b
2) Download Vulnerable recovery for MM - http://www.mediafire.com/?jzzjmmrvwkz
3) Unpack and install RSD Lite, then unpack vulnerable recovery.
4) Open RSD Lite and click on '...' button, chose sbf file with vulnerable recovery (unpacked in 3rd step).
5) Power on your Milestone in bootloader mode (power + d-pad up).
6) Connect usb cable to Milestone, RSD lite will show that phone is connected
7) Press start in RSD lite and wait until RSD lite end procedures (it will boot when process will be done). Shutdown phone.
8) Turn on Milestone by pressing power + x on the keyboard. It should get you to recovery mode.

Thank you for the detailed steps and the links! I REALLY appreciate them!
Once I've done those, I should then be able to do a backup through the recovery menu and flash the latest CM7 release? Or are there other steps I need to do?

When you will be done, download (from here - http://code.google.com/p/androidiani-openrecovery/downloads/list) and copy to sd card Androidiani Open Recovery (update.zip and OpenRecovery folder should be in / of sdcard, eg.: /sdcard/update.zip ; /sdcard/OpenRecovery).
Then (if you want to flash CM7) you need to download CM from here - https://github.com/downloads/nadlabak/android/update-cm-7.1.0-RC10-11.06.14-Milestone-signed.zip and GApps (http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip) and copy it to /sdcard/OpenRecovery/updates
When you copy AOR and CM7 to your sd card, you need to shutdown your phone and power it on with pressed power + x. It will take you to the recovery (screen with exlamation in background) and then you will need to press vol up + camera button. If you see blue menu, choose from option 'apply update.zip'. It takes you to AOR. From AOR menu choose Apply Update, in next step choose package with CM7 (update-cm-7.1.0-RC10-11.06.14-Milestone-signed.zip) and when update will be over do the same with gapps. Return to the main menu and do 'Wipe dalvik cache' and 'Wipe cache'. Reboot and CM7 should load now.

Awesome! This all makes sense. I will have time later this week to give it a try (I can't wait to update this phone, it has now decided that if I receive a couple calls and also a couple texts, it will freeze completely on me. Not impressed!) - thanks again!
Another simple question: When I copy over CM7 and the Google Apps, do I leave them in .zip format or should I unpack them first?

Both - CM7 and Google Apps should be packed and moved to OpenRecovery/updates folder.

Thank you for your awesome instructions!
I ran into a few hiccups (at first, I didn't have the USB drivers installed and then I ran into an issue where the com.android.phone process kept quitting so I did a complete data wipe on top of the cache wipes) but I now have CM7 installed and running.
However, I've run into a new problem: I have no network access! (cellular voice or data!). The only carrier the phone sees is WIND (I am on Fido). It previously had no trouble at all... I think it is because of the Baseband version?
I noticed that, with the flashing and everything, the baseband version has changed from 3GSMEPU91A_U_91.09.00I (which worked) to 3GSMEPU91A_U_91.09.04I (not a big change but maybe the cause of my problem?)
I know that the phone is not meant to be used on Fido but it was previously unlocked and working fine... Did I miss a step somewhere?
As of right now, my phone is useless to me so help would greatly be appreciated!
EDIT1: I did configure the Mobile Networks/Access Point Names settings (as per what I used before the format) so that is not the problem...
EDIT2: Under status, the phone does list my correct phone number but has the network as "unknown".

Have you changed the baseband to Canada in AOR? It's either that or Telus when flashing in AOR.
What exactly did you do with the APN? You shouldn't have any issues configuring it to Fido.
Sent from my Milestone using XDA Premium App

I hadn't changed the baseband in AOR - I thought I might have to but I didn't want to do anything that could be detrimental.
I just applied the "canada.zip" and, indeed, it looks like that did the trick!
As for the APN, I just put in the ones found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537829 as that is what I had to do to get the data working before.
edit: I've been playing around with the phone and everything seems to be working! (even the AMAZING "Create a 3G Wireless Hotspot" feature!) Honestly, I cannot thank you enough adamz667 and skadude66!

I see. The Overcome thread also has the CWM Recovery as a .zip file which is flashable through Stock Recovery (same procedure as flashing Root). You just put the file in your internal SDcard and flash away. If you still have doubts, read a little bit here, as I'm sure that will clear any doubts you might have.

Don't expect perfection from a port, ever (port = a ROM that's not native to the device). The motley kernel, along with UV can help you in the battery department.

My system right now is a stock ROM us retail P7310UEKHA flashed with CWM and CWM and I want to install a 3.2 stock ROM using ODIN.
The way I try to access the download menu is
1. Turn off the tab
2. wait 30 sec
3. restart with the down volume pressed
4. when the reaching the menu between recovery and dowloading. Select dowloading with the down volume button and validate with the up volume button.
Result: a black screen for 3 seconds and then the tab reboots

[Q] Install untrusted package when booting into cwm

Whenever I boot into Clockworkmod Recovery, it wants to install a package. Clicking on Yes, No or Go back tells me 'install aborted' and reboots the phone making it inpossible to backup, install new roms ect. It also happens with ROM Manager.
The only way I can get around this is with CM Updater, which lets me update the phone no problem.
My Phone is running Cm10.1-20130725-NIGHTLY with Stock Kernel
Is there a way to fix this without having to go to Odin and reflash my phone from the beginning?
(sorry if its in the wrong section)
Edit: Fixed, ROM Manager was the reason it happened and I was using the wrong button conbination. I should have done more research

What combination do you use? the download-mod???
