Problem accessing recovery

Hi guys:
I have rooted my phone today using SuperOneClick root. Then I have installed ROM Manager, and installed Clockwork Recovery Mod 3.0.0.5. I have being reflashing Clockwork and recovery menu via ROM Manager because when I turn off my phone and turn it up (holding up power on and vol down button) and press to go to Recovery then appears the error image that is like an Android logo, cellphone and a yellow caution sign.
¿Can you guys help me? ¿What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

That's the stock recovery. If you still have a stock rom, it will restore stock recovery unless you delete the following files:
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
/system/recovery-from-boot.p

I don't understand.
I have installed to it CM7 last build. And is running without any problems, but I am scared that if I have some problem with the OS and I can't boot to recovery.
It has Clockwork Recovery Mod but I can access it unless I use ROM Manager to start it.
¿I need to delete those 2 files and It will be fixed?
Thanks!

That is definitely the stock recovery (Android with an exclamation in a triangle).
If you have CM7 installed, I've no idea how you got the stock recovery, but re-flashing another recovery should fix it. The two files I mentioned aren't included in CM7, so that's not the problem...

Agree. That's the stock recovery. Sometimes you need to apply the new recovery twice under rom manager. I did have similar experience. Install a custom recovery again. I beg it will be fine next time. Hope this help.

When I first rooted using a one click method my custom recovery would only stick for one boot. On the xda nexus one wiki there's instructions on how to install a recovery after one click root and get it to stick.
Hope this helps!

I NEED to get Clockworkmod Recovery on my phone, but I can't seem to get it to work

I got my phone back just 3 days ago and figured i'd finally customize it. I FINALLY figured out a safe and full-proof way of rooting my samsung galaxy s i9000M. I FINALLY figured out that I need to switch the <3e> recovery to <2e> recovery so that I'm able to flash custom ROMs.
Here's the annoying part...
I STILL can't set up Clockworkmod recovery instead of the stock recovery menu. The tutorial I'm following specifies that I need this recovery in order to get everything workin.
I have the phone rooted and I have ROM manager installed too.
Won't someone tell me how to install it on my phone?
I've tried this website:
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-install-clockworkmod-recovery-3-using-rom-manager/
didn't work many times
thanks in advance!

gotta start somewhere

I should point out, it keeps saying "can't open /sdcard/update.zip"
(no such file or directory) if that helps

You mean you don't have recovery yet or you can't install any zip files?

You'll probably need to do it via Odin.
If you look at the guides here on XDA you'll see easily how to do this.
There are probably easier ways to do by now, but you can follow the more traditional method without much difficulty and not really with that many screw up chances.
Just grab a custom Kernel, like SpeedMod or so, for Odin installation.
Follow the steps that you'll see on the Odin guide to install just the Kernel. Once that is done the Recovery mode will be altered and you can start using CWM normally from there on (or until you install some other full ROM that replaces the kernel and recovers the official recovery mode).

[Q] Unable to mount /system in recovery

Hi Guys,
Just got this galaxy min for my daughter.
Using guides on here have got the thing running 2.3.4 and rooted it. However I've flashed the recovery image and all looks well untill I try to take a backup - it can't mount /system.
Tried it manuallt from within recovery, same with data. Its almost like not having root rights but within Clockwork recovery!
Any ideas? I've played with a Hero, Nexus one and now a GS2 but this has me foxed!!
Cheers
Bryan

*sigh*
Can't find a solution anywhere.
Anyone with a working recovery please let me know what you did to install and what version - maybe a link to it?
Many thanks
Bryan

This happens with stock ROM. So I could not made nandroid. But after flashing custom ROM.nandroid backup works. So the problem is with firmware not with cwm.after installing custom ROM, you will be able to mount system.

Clockwork Mod recovery

Hi, I recently rooted my Nexus One. Its all running great. Installed Rom Manager and used it to install Clockworkmod recovery. This is where my problem lies. The installation goes fine and I can boot into it he first time. But after that it doesn't work. I just an image of the android figure and an exclamation mark in a triangle. I have to remove my battery to reboot. If I reinstall clockworkmod recovery it works. But only once. Hen I get the same problem. Any body know what's wrong here. Its got me stumped. I'm afraid to install any Rom wig this acting so weird. Thanks for any and all help anyone can give.

Stock Recovery is persistent, i.e will overwrite CWM on every reboot.

How do i get around this then to make it stop overwriting clockwork?

There's a script or something like that is preventing the CWM recovery from sticking IIRC.
You can get a script made by rugmankc
http://api.viglink.com/api/click?fo...b.tt/ooDaCnU&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_13257843136922
Download the file and put on your sd card
After you install and boot into the CWM recovery the first time, flash that
Fix-Recovery.zip file

Thanks, I took a look at it, instead of running the script i used ES File Explorer and just renamed install-recovery.sh and recovery-form-boot.p and that seemed to do the trick. I was able to boot into CWM recovery 3 times in a row.

you should install super user or Custom rom

Im already rooted so I have super user. And I will be installing a custom Rom soon. Anyway, the issue is cleared up now, since I renamed those files.

Galaxy Tab P1000 CWM Recovery Installation help!

Hi!
I am desperately trying to get Android 4.0 up and running on my device.
I have successfully rooted it, but that's as far as I've come.
The issue is that I don't know how to install CWM Recovery on it.
I tried volume up and down + power button but then I just get a weird message saying "power reset or unknown upload mode". So I don't know how to put the CWM in the image folder in order to install it.
Can someone please help me? I only have to install clockworkmod in order to continue my process.
I have been searching and reading for 4 hours now, I am exhausted and I have tried EVERYTHING I can think of.
PLEASE help me

If you have a sprint or Verizon check out roddericks thread on here and that should get cement installed on your system. Then check out jt1134 over at rootzwiki under galaxy tab development an heimdall the cwm package that he has on his cm7 thread.
