It won't fully load the recovery? Did you try to reflash the recovery img?
Sounds like it...
Follow the unroot/restore guide in the wiki, and you should be good (unless it's a hardware issue).

My phone was bricked yesterday. Then I used SMF to recover, so I turned back to v10a. (from smart flash tool)
Installed Rom manager rooted and installed marvel rom.
Then I tried miui 2.1 rom.
Then i tried to restore my backup(marvel) what i did with rom manager. Phone bricked again.(Blue screen on android)
Then I used SMF to recover again. --> v10a.
Now in rom manager pressin flash cwm button in menu but nothing happens. I rooted phone. Root is workin well in other programs like Titanum. Tried reboot into recovery causes factory reset bcs of cwm i think.
Any way to solve this problem? Or can I install zipaligned rom like marvel, zeus without cwm? Like S/E tool. Power + volumeUp...
Did you do all the wipes before flashing the rom?
Didn't you missed any step?
I cant see even recovery menu. To wipe data/dalvik.
I coulnt flas cwm, so when Im trying to do reboot into recovery via Rom Manager, skips that menu(controlled with volume and power buttons dont know the name) and v10 is booting with factory reset.
Do you have an internet connection when trying to flash cwm?
Trolling in the deep
Just root it again, reboot, install busybox, reboot, install cwm and all should work just fine

Yes I had internet. I installed Rom Manager from market.
I will follow this link. It gives you offical 20o Rom rooted and touch version of cwm. Hope it will work for me.
And I realized that I really missed LG's UI.

You probably forgot "wiping" before restoring your nandroid. Any this shall be a lesson. From now on you won't forget.
had the same problem before, i always had a bug installing CWM, caused factory reset everytime , but when i downloaded it again it works well..

I've never wiped before restoring a nandroid, and believe me I've flashed my OB a lot while i was debuting my Lezo mod.

I solved the problem. Now I have offical 20o ROM offical and rooted. Happy with that. Until stable CM7 or MIUI release I will stop trying ROMS.
hi,
I used to have darky rom 10.4.2 on a Samsung galaxy S .
wanted to move to cynagenmod 7.2 stable, but when i was flashing it using clockworkmod 5.x,
the phone has got into a boot loop.
been searching over a few hours now, nothing comes close to fixing the issue.
can you share some experience here and help.
regards
raghav..
If you can't acces CWM, you can try to flash some other kernel for CM7.2, if won't help, the only way is to download some official ROM from samfirmware.com, flash it using Odin, then ROOT it and try to flash CM7.2 again...
Do you have a backup (Nandoid or titanium backup )? That's important for all following actions.
If not, pull out the battery and try to get into cwm of darky ROM. Otherwise flash the resurrection ROM (via Odin) from darky. After that do a backup and erase all data (wipe data,cache and dvailk cache). Flash a 7.2 ROM (like miui) or kernel to get the 5.xx cwm and finally restore your backup
If u get any issuses, repeat with a stock ROM which is already rooted.

Hello, I have been searching through forums to find out how to install the clockwork bootstrap and a custom Rom, i came accross a question i can not solve.
Since the CWM is only a bootstrap and is located in the system partion and it is not possible to restore from it if your phone goes into a bootloop then does it also not erase the orginial recovery? Basicly my question is if i get the CWM and a rom will I be able to restore back to the orginial stock OS without bricking my phone? As far as i understand i can because the bootstrap doesnt touch the recovery partion? If this doesnt work is there any other way that i can restore back to stock if i brick/get bootloop???

First, try the linked thread above. Second, you can use the stock recovery (Vol- + power) to do a factory reset. If that doesn't work, you can always reflash a .kdz file.

Do it like muellersmattes sayed. If that doesn't work, you have to flash the stock firmware aka .kdz file.

Hi all!
I flashed my recovery to TWRP and ever since then, I always get stuck in bootloop no matter what custom ROM I try. Flashing back to stock rom via ODIN works.
It's been a while since I've tinkered with custom ROMs so I may be missing something. Any ideas on where to start?

Hi,
Which phone ? i9305 or i9300 ?
Which version of TWRP do you use ?
You should try latest version of TWRP (2.8.7.3).
Or try Philz touch Recovery 6.48.4 or 6.59.
1.Repeat ODIN step to stock rom
2.Root the phone by kingroot (as it's doesn't required pc)
3.After rooting, Download Cwm rom manager
4.Install Cwm by selecting your phone model and etc
5.flash it directly from the apps
6.now you can flash any rom ( please backup your system for your safety)
EDIT: SOLVED!!!
Hi guys! I have a question. I have twrp that I installed with the help of advanced stock kernel. But it doesn't look like a permanent recovery. If I install a custom ROM without a recovery, I will lose my recovery. Can you help me install a permanent recovery on my phone. ?
I have tried flashing using flashtool and it only boots into twrp and not android.....
Thanks !

The reason you lose recovery when installing a new ROM is because TWRP is built in Advanced Stock Kernel,and when you flash for example SLiMM ROM it reflashes its kernel.
That means that every time you install a new ROM you will need to reflash the kernel.

Don't worry, Im going to close the thread now . The problem was that i cannot flash the kernel on roms like PA or CM without getting a bootloop, but i managed to find out how to flash a recovery to the recovery partition and then enter it using a key combo, and it works quite well, perfect for my needs!
Thanks anyway!:good:
