CM7 is EXT3, so I can't see that fix helping. NVflash back to stock, install ClockworkMod the restore /data

Smartflashtool can't find my phone, now it've got in to S/W upgrade and now i'm stuck with please wait while upgrading

If you had cm7. Youve deleted the LG usb drivers. Re install them.

Can not flash CWM :(

Hi I'm trying to install miui for my sister in law on her Galaxy S but I can't seem to install CWM.
I've downloaded rom manager from the market clicked on flash recovery (fist option) then from the list chose samsung galaxy s. The next I clicked on reboot to recovery but when it boots into it, it says at the top Android system recovery (3e)
What am I doing wrong???? :s
PS I don't have a memory card inside my phone trying to install via the internal sd storage. The also I don't have access to my pc so need to do it off my phone. Please any help appreciated thank you.

When you boot into recovery press the buttons a couple of times. Ie, 3button combo to boot, release all the buttons and press the 3buttons again. I have had the same problems on 3sgs's and this seemed to work on them.
No luck
Any one else have any ideas. Please any help is appreciated.

I have clockworkmod recovery installed and when i click on reboot to recovery or use the 3 button configuration it only boots into the android system recovery.
I can not for the life of me get the Cwm recovery to boot up.
Is there a kernel I can flash with rom manager to get cwm installed
Sent from my GT-I9100
It's definitely rooted? What rom is it currently on?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Darkys rom. Plus i have titanium backup installed and backed up my apps. Superuser is working perfectly.
I want to install miui the official rom.
Anyway I can without having to use a pc??
Sent from my GT-I9100
If it's on Darky's rom, it should have cwm already! Not sure if you can do it from your phone now mate.
Once you've got the cwm sorted (hopefully it's a gingerbread rom) you need to format system, data and cache, then flash Miui.

Ahhh.
Flash darky RE via Odin. But if you are running darky kernel you should have cwm. Uninstall cwm app and try again.

If i understand well, you can't use odin because you don't have PC,right? Well:make sure that your phone is rooted. Go to market and get that application : "sgs kernel flashar " the one by neldar.
Then download a kernel for your firmware, and make sure you download a tar file or obtain a zimage file. Flash it with the application mentioned, you don't need any cwm. After that you flash the new kernel you should have a cwm installed.
If i understand wrong I'm sorry.

[Q] can't reboot with cwm

Hi guys
I installed cwm yesterday and i'm having problems with it. When I try to reboot, it only comes to the samsung logo or the s plus logo. I can't access my phone anymore. It always comes back to the cwm menu. I have already tried several fixes for it, but I always have to reboot after that and that's the problem. What do I have to do? Can someone help me plz?
I'm so afraid that my phone is broken now
Thanks
Flash a new rom on cwm or u can flash gingerbread 2.3.6 value pack on odin

There seems to be a lot of problems with the new 6. recovery. You may want to install an older version which is an option in rom manager. Perhaps v5.0.2.7. Question, fo you only have one rom backed up? If so it may be corrupted. You may have to use the lg updater tool and upgrade to gingerbread to restore if you only have one rom backed up.
Also if I understand your post you installed cm7 and it was stuck on the load screen. Did it ever boot fully? If not on cm you have to do a factory data reset before booting or it will just bootloop.

I did the factory reset and it did fully boot up once briefly but unfortunately the phone ran out of battery and i havent been able to get it past the CM7 logo screen since. While its in the bootloop I can get it to connect to the the LG support tool and start the update process to get it back to Gingerbread but at some point it fails and says it cant connect with the phone. At this point i dont really care what i have to do to get my phone back. I didnt see the option in rom manager to install an older version.
UPDATE:
As i was typing this i retraced the steps and now CM7 is up and running on my phone but so far its unable to connect to the network.

Ok. On the thrill, if you were on gingerbread youll need to flash the cm7 for the p920/o3d. The cm7 rom for the thrill will only get signal for froyo. As for reverting to an older version of cwm recovery, i believe it is an option when you choose in the very top bar of rom manager to flash a recovery. Press that and i think it asks you to choose a recovery, i believe o3d is the choice, than after that the option to pick a recovery should show up. If you do flash an older recovery try your back up and see if it recovers. Hope this helps.

[Q] Can't boot into recovery [CM10.1+Semaphore]

Hey! I got big problem, I can't open the recovery mode after updating my CyanogenMod to the latest RC4 version. After that i flashed Semaphore 2.9.25 kernel, and today I can't open recovery anymore After using Vol Up+Home+Power i see semaphore boot animation freezes for like 20 sec, then CM starts.
So what should I do to get into recovery mode again? I don't know if installing nightly updates will work (recovery doesn't work so how it will be updated), maybe using SGS Kernel Flasher will help?
Please help me solve my problem
Flash a rom with Odin
Go back to stock, try upgrade to CM10.1 again.
Alternatively if you want to learn how to use it you could try using ADB to force recovery. There are guides somewhere in these forums. But going back to stock would probably be easier...

Today I accidentally dropped my phone, and after back to home... I tried to open recovery CMW again - and it surprisingly worked so I was able to update my kernel :laugh:
But thank you for future solutions, I'd further try to flash only kernel via Odin

Keeps rebooting to cwm after installing CM

Here is what I did with the phone:
- Flashed JVU via odin
- Flashed CF-Root with CWM via odin
- Wipe EVERYTHING
- Flashed semaphore kernel for 4.3 via CWM
- Rebooted to CWM
- Flashed CM 10.2 stable via CWM
- Flashed semaphore again
- Flashed gapps
And now the phone keeps rebooting to CWM everytime I power it on. It never goes to Android, it always boots to CWM. Any ideas?
Of course, i tried to flash CM / semaphore / gapps again but it keeps doing the same. Flashing only CM does not work either
same problem with my i9000 back year..U have lost you internal memory..it can work if u take you phone into download mode for 5 minutes and then start it it will work..

What do you mean exactly? ;_;
By the way it seems to work after flashing a samsung stock ROM but it does the same everytime I try to install CM. And I have done it before, I don't understand this ;_; (I decided to start over again because I was having trouble to downgrade from 4.4)
Have you find a solution? I faced the same problem and after reading half of the day on this forum I managed to find a solution to go back to stock and restore the phone functionality. Now I only have to flash CWM/TWRP and start to flash custom ROMs again
Let me know if you still need help.
The correct procedure to come to any ROM is from GB>ICS>JB>KK. So make sure that you are following the correct procedure
