Help - problem entering in recovery

Hi,
I am running FroyoMod, and i installed ROM manager. Through there i clicked 'flash ClockworkMod Recovery' and now i cannot enter into recovery at all.... the worst thing is that my phone cannot connect to wifi connection and i cannot go into recovery to clean Dalvik cache in order to test it if this sloves my problem.
Any suggestions?

ROM Manager and CWM do NOT work on Milestone.. Even though it does say it works, it doesn't. OpenRecovery and any mod of it is the only thing that works.
Right now, you have a semi-brick. You need to reflash a stock SBF for your country (to get 3G/data) and then restart the rooting process with the VR, installing OR, etc.

There should really be a sticky for this. It wouldn't be too hard, and should be read by all before they flash a new ROM or ask this question

Oh god! Thanks...
So after 1,5 years i would have to start from scratch! :-(
At least i am not using 3g and at least i can use it as a phone...

Regardless, any custom ROM is better than stock 2.2.1, so I would say it's worth the effort to re-root and flash another custom ROM.

Can someone help me?
i run my country's SBF through RSD, but i am stuck on the "android" logo at the start of the phone.
Anyway i can go past this?
The phone might be 100% bricked now?

OK Solved - had to find a non service SBF....
By the way almost all the links for the sbf's are not valid anymore! It would be a nightmare for someone trying to find old SBF's now...

Sorry for the delay.
I managed to flash GB with the LG Flash Tool.
No root for it though.
For your case, it seems as if the computer is having trouble locating the device.
"adb devices" didn't pull up anything.
Can you flash a file with the LG Flash tool?
If so, download V10C_00.kdz and flash that.
Then root and install ClockworkMod Recovery.
I just did that.
EDIT: Acutally. Turn on Team Viewer.

My Thrill is hanging at the LG logo when I turn it on. I'm able to get into recovery mode but wiping the data doesn't help. It just hangs at the logo again once I reboot. Anyone know what I could try?

GT-i9001 stuck on rebooting into clockworkmod

[Solved]
All you have to do is revert to an older version of clockworkmod, I used version 6.0.12 I believe.
the file name is: CWM6012-CM9-recovery so it might be that. Yep that's it, now i can finally rest

The title says it all.
I tried to install a custom rom on my Galaxy s plus and I figured i'd need cwm, so I got the latest, installed it through the default recovery.
And now it keeps booting into the recovery and I can't get the stock back.
So I still tried to install a custom rom, though it keeps booting into cwm.
Can anyone give me a hand with this? I will need my phone today, so I would really appreciate any help I can get.
I own a One X, though it is at the repairs and now I messed up my only usable phone

CWM & Smartflash issue on P990

Hi guys!
I'm a newbie here at XDA. Long time ago, I have formatted my Optimus 2X from GB to ICS using smart flash tool. I have done that successfully. After few months, I felt like my phone is slow to respond. Then I decided to repartition and install fresh ICS copy again. I was not 100% sure what I was doing at that time. I have used AIO tool for this. Selected option no. 4 and have selected CWM v6.0.2.5 as recovery.
Then I tried to install the new ROM using smart flash and I did not succeed. After I have messed up with this problem, I contacted "spyrosk" (the OP of AIO tool thread) and he told me to install stock ROM on this thread. Then I have downloaded the V30A ROM and copied out to the phone memory, and installed using cwm by selecting install zip from sdcard option. I have succeeded.
But now I want get my phone back to the situation where I installed ICS in first time (GB to ICS using smartflash). Because my camera isn't working, OS freezes pretty much, etc. So I tried several times using Smart flash (in AIO tool) tool as I did as same as when I update from GB to ICS. But, I'm getting an error. Time out reached, after few minutes.
Should I remove CWM before install the fresh stock ICS rom using smart flash? Please guide me through this as I am a newbie for these kind of things. All I want to do is, bring back my phone to the same situation where I upgrade from GB to ICS, as I told you at the beginning of this thread.
Please don't ignore this thread by thinking I am an epic noob at this. Guide me and I'll do exactly as you guys say. Thanks a lot for reading. A reply would be greatly appreciated. :angel:

Anyone? Please.
BUMP. Can someone please give me an advice? I'm kinda disappointed right now.

There is nothing to worry about, just keep trying using smartflash. After each try remove the cable then connect it back, if it still not works restart teh phone to S/W screen. If it still not works try it on an other usb port, and do everithing from the begining. If it still fails use another cable or try it on an other computer.
It usually start work for the 6th or the 7th time of trying.
No need to remove cwm or anything like that.

Thank you very much for replying this thread BitDomo. I will try some more times then. Apart from that, I have seen a way to uninstall CWM by installing some files to the device. But I did not try that since that method is for CWM v3.x.x.
I'm kinda noob at savvy android thingies for now. I will learn some more about these thingies from the start of next month. Until then, I just want to bring my phone to official ICS 4.0.3 stock ROM and use the phone as I did earlier.
Thanks again for your kind reply to this thread bro. Really appreciate. I'll try some more times and will post the results. Dear android experts, any other solutions for this? Please make a post if you have a suggestion. Peace.. :highfive:

Please help
Guys I have tried over 10 times to flash to ICS 4.0.4 using Smartflash. But everytime I end up with same error. Then I tried Nvflash. But my device showed me a black screen after the process completed. Everything working correctly but I couldn't see anything on my LCD, its just a black screen with the light. So, I used full brick repair for P990 here at xda.
Now I have CWM v6.0.2.5 as recovery and CyanogenMod 10-20131105-UNOFFICIAL-p990 in my phone. Can someone please explain me how to bring this phone back to official ICS 4.0.4? I tried smartflash right now and device shows a black LCD screen. Smartflash picks up the device but process stops in few seconds. I have searched for revert back to stock ICS from CM, but I did not get a descriptive enough information for this. Please write atleast a brief reply if you know the procedure. Thank you very much. :good:

Problem solved. The thing we learnt today is that the battery have to be inserted when you use smartflash.

This dude is a genius. This tip fixed my phone instantly. If any of you had the same problem, remember NOT to remove the battery when you do a smartflash. So its time to close the thread.

i said it many times on forum

[Q] Please help! Stuck in bootloop :(

Hey guys, could you please give me a hand? I'm really new so forgive me if I don't express myself correctly!
I was trying to instal CM12, and an error ocurred during instalation and it said "instalation aborted" or something like that. After that it only stays in CWM and I can't reboot. I've wiped cache and dalvik numerous times but it's always the same. I also did factory reset and nothing. I can't seem to load another ROM because the SD drive doesn't show up in my computer even though the phone is conected. What else can I try?
Please help me get out of this, I'm a little freaked out =/

Please? I'm clueless
I'm thinking I need to try to flash the stock ROM with Odin...but I can't enter download mode because as soon as I put the battery in, it reboots to recovery mode. Any ideas?
Thanks!!

if you did nandroid backup before flashing you should be able to flash that, you would be better off using twrp for flashing this rom

I didn't do nandroid backup, it wasn't a step in the guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2400123)
So I hope I'll be able to flash it anyway? I'm following these steps now: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159660
I figured the problem was using CWM and not TWRP =/

ok, let us know how you get on. always follow instructions for each rom, and do backup just incase a problem arises. what rom were you using before trying to flash this one?. dont forget cm12 is based on lollipop which isnt really meant for our phone.

Thanks! I'm downloading a stock rom, but it's taking forever. Is it normal that it downloads at 40 kbps? It's taking like 4 hours this way =/ I suppose there is nothing faster except paying for a premium account? I also tried it from other sites but download speeds are terrible. My connection is not so bad...
Anyway, I had CM 11. Once I get ti back (fingers crossed) I figure I'll try CM 12 again, this time with TWRP.
Thanks for the help!

ok, go here....http://www.sammobile.com/....and d/l the latest firmware for your region & carrier, then flash using odin, dont flash a stock-based rom, this will take ur fone back to original, then root & flash custom rom......carefully....

It worked!! Finally!! Thanks a lot, I'll do it more carefully next time, but I'll be stuck with this stock ROM for a little while. One last question, how important was it that it wasn't the one for my country? I didn't find one and I flashed a Romanian one...phone is working fine though!

Yea should be fine, glad I could help, walk before run, take it easy... Enjoy the ride....

All rom's are multilanguage, only difference you can see in baseband. Sometimes on different contries basebad can work more stability than others. Thats all.
If you want experiment wtih install some custom rom use twrp from novafusion site. Its bringing to use with different filesystem and give to you simple and easy manager to get backup your data and get it back when something goes wrong. Remember, Do backup your Efs/imei, boot before flash something on external memory. If you loose without backup this data, you get tablet to tap on something without calling, mobile internet, wifi.
