[Q] Speedmod kernel & ROM Manager issue - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, I have the I9000 with stock (branded, h3g ita) firmware Froyo 2.2
I recently removed Ryanza OCLF and flashed Speedmod Kernel k13e in order to be able to use ROM manager and use custom ROMs... but there's my problem, if it is one...
When I enter Recovery Mode, it automatically opens ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.1.0, that comes with Speedmod Kernel. So I thought to install ROM Manager, but when I launched it the app didn't find the CWM recovery version previously mentioned. So I said to flash CWM Recovery and he says that he has successfully downloaded it... and then he say that my current recovery is version 2.5.1.2
Then, I ask to reboot in recovery mode but what happens is that my phone reboots in the original recovery (android system 3e), it tries to run something (i think the update.zip) and fails... so I manually go into recovery mode (3 buttons combo) and it load CWM recovery version 2.5.1.0 (the one that cames with SpeedMod)
What am I doing wrong? Why ROM Manager launches 3e recovery? Is it because the 2.5.1.0 version of CWM rec has became the "default" recovery (the one automatically launched with the 3 buttons combo)?

MoDaCo R17 FRF50 + ROM Manager = No Recovery

Has this happen to anyone yet? I don't have a recovery, it just reboots into fastboot and if I choose recovery it reboots to fastboot... Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Kernel Version:
2.6.32.9-27220-g328f560

If this happens to you, do the logical thing, or obvious. Flash the alternate recover which is "RA Recovery v1.7.01.1". For some reason ROM Manager v1.8.9.6 is not flashing the Clockwork Mod Recovery v2.0.0.7 correctly despite the fact it shows a success alert.
Same problem here but with the FRF72 , I am root but can not get in to recovery, or get the root fix working.forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=706232[/url].
Okay the RA was not reading my SD card and the Clockwork Mod Recovery v2.0.0.7 was not working either. So now what I did was, in ROM Manager scroll all the way to the bottom and choose "All ClockWorkMod Recoveries" and Flashed the 2.0.1.0, or perhaps choose something higher than the version you already have or is the latest.

[Q] Recovery 3e keeps coming back

hey all,
i have an i9000 that when i reboot to recovery, it ALWAYS goes back to recovery 3e which is a pain. I have to use odin to flash to another kernel temporarily to get 2e back to install a simple update, which then turns into a big complete reset flash when it shouldn't. Anyone know why this happens? I am have attempted with docrom ROMs with both voodoo and speedmod kernels which both include clockwork, but reboot to recovery just goes to 3e again instead of clockwork. do i nede to repartition (using odin and perhaps a PIT) or is this irrelevant and something else is up. My friend has the same phone and never had this problem.
Using Docrom JPJ with speedmod kernel and froyo 2.2.1 atm.
anyone help?
did you find any solutions?
I noticed this with my speed mod kernel.
I found that if you pressed the button combo to go into recovery, let the phone first boot, let all the buttons off and press them again and so on until it boots into cwm recovery.
Worth a try!
Do this when in recorvery:
Install update.zip iy should be on the second slot. If not go to the market and install rom manager. Then there should be a option down the menu that says flash clockwork mod. Do that, boot into recorvery and install update.zip. U may need to install yhe update a few times. Then you should have clockworkmod

[Q] Clockwork recovery pissing my brains off!!!!

guyzz i successfully installed clockwork recovery mod using ROM MANAGER on my indian version of galaxy s GT-i9000 but when i try "reboot into recovery" the phone boots into stock recovery mod.plzzz help me out guyzz
It's not CWM you should be angry at - it's perfect. Blame the ROM Manager - try to get in CWM through the 3 button combo (Volume up + Menu button + Power button) and if that doesn't work just flash CWM with Odin.
Bro thnx for the reply .....i tried the combos it takes me back again to the stock i.e Android system recovery <3e>..
select apply sdcard : update.zip or something like that
once or twice and it should take u into CWM
otherwise as said above, flash it through odin,
Hey kartik . Can u guide me how to install cm7 on our galaxy s. I m also frm india .nplz guide yaar check ur pm
That sounds like you have a stock Kernel.....try flashing an odin version of speedmod kernel.
You have 3e recovery which does not support CWM you need to flash a kernel with 2e recovery (CF-Root) or one qwith CWM built in (speedmod)

[Q] Two recoveries

Now i have tried installing cwm through rom manager and successfully installed it, now if I go into the recovery mode through rom manager it shows the new recovery but if I go into the recovery mode through the combo (volume up button home button and power button) it goes back into the old recovery ie dark core recovery, so that means I have two recoveries in my sgs? Please help, thanks in advance
uninstall rom manager i read somewhere it doesnt work verywell .
ok, then please tell that how can i update this dark core recovery to the latest cwm recovery???
Installing CWM-recovery with Rommanager doesn´t work with the SGS. You have to flashe another Kernel which already includes the Clockworkmodrecovery I don´t know which CWM-Version the DarkCore has but i tried different Kernels an they all had Version 3. If you are on a Gingerbread Stockrom you can try flashing the Semaphore Kernel(Root+a lot of different Improvements). This one I had for a long time. I think it included CWM V 3. Now I'm on Teamhacksungs ICS and I have V5
i am using darky's rom 10.2 and i have to shift to cm7.1 so thats why i have to update my recovery to cwm latest... didn't know how to flash kernel in my phone, coz my friend did all that, and i am a noob

JB, GB - Anytype of CWM (except 3.0.0.5) is not working

Hi All!
I try to find out what causes this weird problem I've had with CWM Recovery, but I couldn't find solution anywhere.
So, the problem is the following:
When I use ICS, JB custom ROMs with my Galaxy S I9000, I always loose CWM recovery. The only stable point is GB 2.3.6 ROM with recovery version 3.0.0.5 with CF-root.
After flash and start the phone in general all the kernels of Semaphore, Devil, Glitch, and so on...just blinks their logo for a second during the boot process, after that it shows blank screen. After waiting a while I can use the phone normally, everything works, but the CWM.
I couldn't reach CWM recovery neither the 3-button mode nor ADB.
I flashed back to stock rom (Valuepack JVU), root it with CF-root (4.3), and I get back CWM 3.0.0.5 in GB 2.3.6 which works perfectly.
But, if I flash the same ROM with the appropriate (e.g. Semaphore) kernel with Odin, I cannot enter CWM recovery anymore.
I've tried FixRecovery.tar. It didn't help.
Now I use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776738 this ROM, but the 3-button recovery is not working too. so I can't make Nandbackup.
Does anyone know what causes this problem?
Thanks in advance,
adr
