I have surfed through the internet but rare few people don't have the problem I'm experiancing.
I used ROM Manger to install the CWR on my phone. It only installed Download Mode but not the Recovery itself. The phone was still working then. What made it stop working is that I used RM to backup my current ROM, and here I am. Stuck on the title screen.
My phone is rooted with GingerBreak (Risky I know but it was fine). All I have is Download mode on me.
Is there anyway how to get my phone fixed?
Use this package to restore http://files.teamkomin.com/index.php?dir=i9000SGS/
It will revert all firmware to a bleeding-edge stock version.

How do you use it ?
edit : nevermind : found it in another thread : Heimdall one-click. I haven't used it myself, but it will come in handy.

That's it?
Just put my phone into Download mode and just let it all do the work?
One problem though, don't you need Recovery mode enabled first before flashing anything? I don't have it on the phone but Download mode.
Is it safe without Recovery?

No, you do not. Download Mode is the savior. If you have that, you're good; if you don't, you risk bricking your device. Make sure you always have downloade mode before you start flashing.
And yes, it's that simple. AdamOutler knows his stuff.

So proceed with Download mode only? No need for Recovery?
Bump.
I need to know if I can do this without needing Recovery.
I might have to get Samsung to check it out if I don't get a response. :/

It has already been said that the recovery mode is irrelevant. You only need to have access to download mode.
the recovery mode is good when u need to flash files located on the phone or sd-card and download mode is to flash files located on your pc
If you are gonna flash, you only need download mode...

Sorry, wasn't able to pick up that it was already answered.
Will flash my phone later. Thankyou all for the replies
Will respond if it passed or not.
Update: (Sorry for double post)
My phone has flashed sucessfully. Download mode is still there but no Recovery.
Much better than the JVK firmware.
Thanks alot guys for the help
Update: I'm back to square 1. As soon as I installed CWM onto my phone, the phone is now starting up the intro and not going further.
I tried to install JVT twice now and it won't budge. Is my phone now offically screwed?
Edit: Fixed it. Used Odin and changed the firmware to JVS. Cleared everything too.
Hi,
I've searched around and found another topic in wich the user had the same problem, but I couldn't figure out what he did.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634870
I flashed my phone with the JB official update and it is working fine. But after that I was trying do enable root on my phone, wich requires some recovery mode installed on the phone.
But when I try to access the stock recovery mode, I only get a Samsung Galaxy S Advance logo screen and that's it, it gets stuck.
I can access the Download mode though (The user in the other post I mentioned couldn't).
After trying to access the stock recovery mode I tried to flash the TWRP recovery mode as explained in this topic (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1873119), but all I get is the Samsung Galaxy S Advance logo screen again.
Is there a way to flash the stock recovery mode?or a way to flash the Clockwork recovery? I searched a lot and couldn't find any ways of doing thaht.
Thank you.
there is a temporary CWM,check in development section,it needs recovery.
or
have you tried waiting in recovery lets say 1-2 min?

Hi, thanks for answering!
This one? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987313
I've seen it before, but I need to use the stock recovery mode to install it, wich I can't access.
and yes, I gave it up to 5 min to initialize the stock recovery mode and nothing =/
did you try factory reset?
at settings-backup and reset?
or
flash firmware again and try.

Dear members,
Please help me find a solution to the issue that had occured:
Recently I've flashed CM9 to my i9001 using serial recovery. Now I wanted to change to CM10 but the phone won't go to recovery mode - it goes to download mode automaticly (like recovery doesn't exist enymore). I've tried switching to recovery from ROM and from turned-off phone but still no results. Please help me get the recovery into the phone

Just download this http://www.mediafire.com/?jg0jjdg8amjlj3b , and select one package
R: [i9001]Need help
Apart that this is a dev section and we have a question and answer thread for this, you should flash a recovery again with Odin and if nothing happens again, I suggest you to flash an entire GB official ROM and restart from zero.
Please, next time use Q&A Thread.

...But , i could access to Download Mode *(Volume Down+Power+Home) , I couldn't get access to Recovery Mode only *(it turns Black Screen & keep me waiting so long) .
I thought problem solves if I couldn't change another Custom Rom , but i can't even BOOT into recovery mode.
THANKS Brothers for solving here, THanks THanks. (I'm urgent for it too..)

Flash philz kernel (.tar) from pc odin while in download mode (latest version). See if you can get into recovery, if you can, download and put the CM rom+gapps on external sd card, flash without any wipes from recovery or if you did take any nandroid backup you can restore that from philz kernel.

download philz kernel from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191
download the one that says .tar instead of .zip. put the phone into download mode. Open PC odin, connect phone to pc, COM ID should light up in yellow with some number. click on PDA and choose the .tar file and click on start. once it is finished, reboot into recovery and see if it works. You can fix the counter and yellow triangle later with Triangle away application.

Is the Kernel version essential? Since Philz v5.11.2 has several Kernels you can choose from, where as you cannot check which one you have running since the phone does not boot anymore.
correct , you're right!

still waiting for a clear answer to proceed the steps.
Philz Kernel may need a LINK here. maybe URL ?
THanks ALL ! feel that solutions are near now.
as you cannot check, you can download the one for your region, check on sammobile.com/firmwares for which one is for your region and i already gave the link to the philz kernel, i wont post the direct url for the file.
Basically got my phone to boot, CWM is still broken, anyway to work with this?

It doesn't matter which kernel you flash, you're just flashing to give you recovery and then you can flash cm and gapps. It won't boot, it's not supposed to.

Not sure I'm in the same boat...
is anyone seeing the same as I am - I also can't boot into Recovery since nightly 20130824. I can boot into Download mode... and... I can still boot into my current CM10.2 nightly (20130824)!!!
I've tried reflashing CWM using ROM Manager, even a few times... but nothing changes. Trying to get into recovery using VolUp+Home+Pwr doesn't work (after Samsung GT-N7000 white text... blackscreen (which I can see is still 'on'). If I try to boot into recovery using Rom Toolbox or similar, it behaves the same and I can only get it to reboot into the ROM once I've pulled the battery out and then put it back in and connected to a charger so the battery charging icon shows... which somehow clears the 'boot into recovery' flag somewhere.
Very concerned... saw something in the changelogs back at 20130824 about recovery fixes and wondered if this might happen. The first time I got it to boot back into the ROM something wasn't quite right with the internal/external SD mounts... all my ringtones and alerts etc. were reset to just numbers (e.g. 40125) which actually happens more often than I expect... but this time I couldn't find the ones I usually use in the selection list.
I rebooted with SD card out... then re-inserted it... and then things went back to how they should be and I could see and select my preferred tones again.
Have tried booting into Recovery via app, via hw keys... with SD card in, SD out... SIM card in... SIM out... both SD and SIM out... there's just no way into recovery.
Using ROM Manager I also tried to setup the alternative Recovery (TWRP) but that also gets stuck with the message 'ROM Manager has been set up to use your existing recovery installation'. but same behaviour when trying to boto into recovery.
I've also used Android Root Toolkit to try save/protect Root... Restore Root.. etc. but to no avail.
Any ideas... please?
EDIT: Thanks for the Odin3 / PhilZ Kernel advice - that seemed to work.
Question: Now that I've got back to recovery and updated to nightly of 20130826, did I overwrite PhilZ kernel?
yes
Yes,
ideas:
Read the rom thread, fixes there
How do i downgrade my CWM or get rid of it?
I attempted Odin to flash the older CWM v5 but, that didn't work, I think because my phone's download mode isn't working either.
Any suggestions much appreciated.

Hi There,
Well you can flash the recovery in lots of ways like:
*Fastboot
*Flashify
*WinDroid etc.
I recommend Fastboot. If you want to know how to do that. Let me know i will provide you with the Guide.
