so..
i have alfs06 and gingerdx22. i didnt install chargemon+volds update, so i cannot install *zip files in XRecovery or CWM 3.2
if i install chargemon+volds update, i will not be able to enter CWM 3.2 or XRecovery
The default kernel recovery is CWM 5.x but the zip file requires CWM 3.x
so how can i install that zip file?
do you guys understand a bit of what i am saying?

Well i have this problem too 1hour ago, iv just put my sd crad to pc and download alfs fix, then when my phone is starting iv start pushing BACK button, after that recovery appears, and just choose install zip from sd card and here you go....
if i install alfs fix, i wont be able to enter CWM 3.2 or XRecovery, only kerne's recovery which is CWM 5.x
but CWM 5.x is not supported by my zip. it needs version 3.x

Are you shure about that you wont be able to install your zip with newer version of recovery, because as far as i know you can always install files for older with newer but you cant do it in reverse...
when i try to install a custom zip in CWM 5.x , i get an error that it is not supported and must try with CWM 3

Hey guys I've rom FROYO.XWJPA with ROOT and I want install CWM recovery from Rom Manager. Then i click Flash cwm recovery the operation is successful, but then I try reboot to cwm recovery my phene have still samsung recovery... what is wrong?
I had the same problem. I solved it by flashing an update.zip of the CWM recovery from the Samsung recovery. It worked by flashing two times, first time didn't work ^^
Pretty sure that ROM manager doesn't actually flash the recovery the way you think. It just allows you to boot into it from within the app. Open ROM manager up and try booting into it from there.
Or just install a kernel that has a built in CWM recovery.
Problem solved
Hello.
ROM manager is unable to download clokworkmod recovery. Maybe because I'm in a "sanctioned country" CUBA and I have a lot of internet restrictions from both Google and my ISP.
My question is: Can I manually download clokworkmod recovery and copy it on the SD card and have ROM manager install it?
If the answer is yes: How? and where do I find Clockworkmod for the captivate?
i897 stock 2.1.1 rooted and unlocked.
Thanks.

all rom manager does is put this zip file on your sdcard. its not needed.
just drop this on the root of your sdcard, reboot to recovery and reinstall packages twice. CWM will come up then

the one caveat to this ... make sure you have the 2e boot loader when you boot into recovery. The 2e bootloader is the stock bootloader that comes with froyo. 3e will require you to have the update packages signed, and therefore will need to downgrade to 2e before you can switch to CWM.

Wrong.
2e RECOVERY comes from firmware 2.1, which the OP stated he was on. Froyo comes with 3e recovery. Has nothing to do with bootloader, because the bootloaders are the same between eclair and Froyo.

GREAT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
Working, one more question. I noticed three things:
1 - If I reboot to recovery again it goes into stock recovery (2e). Then I hit reinstall packages only once and ClockWorkMod comes up.
2 - If I delete the update.zip from the sd card CWM will not work.
3 - ROM Manager still says that CWM is not installed therefore is not working OK.
Is all this ok? Should I select: "Install sdcard:update.zip" while in CWM? Should I do something else?

That sounds pretty normal to me. If you are getting into CWM then thats all that really matters. The deal with ROM manager is that it doesnt work very well with our phones. But if you are trying to flash a custom ROM you can still do it without ROM Manager. However, you need to read up about the rom you want to flash because it is a slightly risky process. Its as risky as using ROM Manager and almost Russian roulette if you dont read.
But do not delete the update.zip after you install it. I dont know if it messes with the boot process of recovery mod but I do know its better to have that backup file on your SD card already if you run into a problem later on.
Don't bother with ROM manager. Its close to useless with SGS phones. Make sure your 3 botton combo works and you should be golden. Also making a jig isn't a bad idea also, just incase you do screw up and you get in a softbrick where your keycombos decide to not work.

1- no problem at all.
2- yes. Flash stock rom with odin.
3- yes.
4- stay away from rom manager, it bricked ace.
one more thing... i see in the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18178563&postcount=13 that the falsh is with the old veriosn recovery.. if i have stock rom i need only to boot in stock rom and update from zip file: recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix.zip . correct?
Questions 1-3 have been answered.
To flash a rom, download it from xda.
It will be a ZIP file.
Go to recovery, do the wipes, install the Rom, gapps if you whish, reboot. First Boot might take a while. No worries.
For detailed instructions see the thred of the Rom of your choice.
Cheers!

Hi, have a rooted P990, did manage to install MIUI but wants Cyanogenmod. The only Cyanogenmod i can install is with the Progmaq-default-cm10 But i cant get into recovery after that install. If i use AIO and do a repartition and delete all then i can install CWM or TWR recovery, but i cant install ROM from any of them. TWR say that there isnt any OS on phone, CWM only goea back into recovery when reboot. Should i install the boot.img file on the phone, if yes, how do i do it?
What does CWM say after you installed a ROM, is there any error message?
Are you using old or new bootloader? Did you make sure to use a ROM that is suitable for your bootloader? You can use AIO to change the bootloader type.
