Well you will get more answer if you explain what you run on and what you try to do.
**DamianGTO Ultimate kernel. 350MB Ram. 600HZ. all ext2. Steam Rom. Js5**

Let me take a punt...
You installed Rom Manager, used it to install ClockWorkMod, selected Galaxy S I9000 from the menu options and then rebooted and THAT is the screen you got..

That's just the problem. It didn't work. When i restart to recovery mode i get that picture u see above. And when i restart i get a lot of force close warnings.

Try to flash a custom kernel and you have solved all problem.

Well I have flashed yours and in response to the OP, that's what happens, it does not seem to work as you expect it to.
But as the man stated, flash a custom kernel like his (recommended) and you will get the actual menu options you expect, it's just not a pure Rom Manager, another member says that this has been covered to death in FAQ and wiki's, but to be honest I have not managed to glean a definitive reason, I just ended up flashing a custom kernel and am done with it.
We need a smiley for "Too Hard Basket"

Will do a new try later on.

Damn... There should be a undo when u by accident press the back arrow on the phone.
Anyway... Did i full recovery on my phone (*2767*..55#) and installed a rom that worked before. That one looks like -->
I still get to the first picture above when i use cwm... The phone is correctly rooted. What could it be the problem now??? ??? ???

Hey guys,
I have the same problem, to read my story check this topic (last post for now , page 2) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11727649
I think it's similar. Everything works but clockwork does not install properly, it looks like the original samsung recovery. Blue text etc. Just like yours!
Please let me know if you found a solution! Thanks

some more who got this problem? I will go crazy! ^^

Yeah I know flashed the original stock 2.2 JS3 XEN rom. But it's only stock so still no good working CWM. with the darky rom 9.2 resurrection, it said: 2e recovery, and then something such as 'samsung utils'. But the text was still blue and there were no extra options
So now im back to the stock one with 3e
It seems this guy had the same problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959342
By the way I sent Darkyy a PM and asked him to take a look. I hope he's not too busy.
P.S. This is not about my own SGS, I run darky 9.2 extreme without any problems, but It's another SGS which belongs to a relative of mine. However it's still as annoying that it doesn't work. Maybe there will be a 9.3 resurrection as well?

Thnx for the answer. So now i will sit down and w8!

Since he just factory reset a stock rom, it isnt set to debugging mode, so adb isnt an option...

Good point...hmmmmmm
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App

Because you cant push a launcher or get into any settings menu, my only suggestion would be to flash a new rom. And assuming that the rom you just flashed (being completely stock), you wont have the 3 button combo although I suggest you try it. (Im not sure about the combos for 2.2 roms).
If you cant get into recovery/download through any method, my next suggestion is to buy/build a JIG and force your device into download mode, by which you can use ODIN to flash a rom.
You can make a jig for about a dollar or buy one for about 10. (Best purchase i made). Just take a look around the forums for more info on this.

yes i can get into where it says reboot system now,reinstall packages delete data ya know. not much experiance

and i can still get the usb modes when i plug in usb. kies media player mass storage.just an amature

Not sure if it would work...but odin3 v1.0 had a option for enable debug .could he just do that? Then adb push /system/app/launcher.apk? See pic

Canadian one click using Heimdall not Odin. Good news is Heimdall is cross platform and can be used on PC, Mac, and Linux. Read the thread and the instructions are in the OP. Good Luck!

That's because Kies isn't supported in the US and you don't need it anyway! Glad to hear you're up and running again.

That's the link for the Canadian Stock Heimdall package.
Be careful when flashing ROMS, be certain to read the instructions carefully and read the thread too, usually you will find all the information you need, any problems to expect and how to recover from these problems. Good Luck and happy flashing!

ClockWork Mod Recovery not working

Hello everyone, im fairly new to the rooting scene and I had a question about CMW. I would like to apologize in advance if the question appears to be off-topic.
Anyways after rooting my GT-N7000 and installing CWM, I wanted to backup my current stock rom before trying out the Jelly Bean AOKP ROM. I found a tutorial that explains the proper way of backing up your phone. So i followed them and powered off my phone, held Up volume, home and power buttons, however unlike in the tutorial video ClockWorkMod recovery didn't show up on my screen but the stock Android recovery did. I would like to know if I made a mistake during the rooting process, or is smth wrong with my phone?
Can somebody please take the time and answer this n00bie question because I wanna try out new roms as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance.
I have included a picture of how my screen looks like when I followed the aforementioned instruction.

first of all, what ROM are you currently on?, second... It might be my browser or me but I can't seem to find your picture on your post above....

Just to verify, no picture available.

It may be that you have root, but you do not have CWM. You can use Mobile Odin to load safe kernel (Speedmod, Notecore, Hydracore). You can also upload a secure kernel using Odin PC, but you will have a yellow triangle, which can be removed TriangleAway.apk downloaded from market. This way you get full root and CWM.

You've got root ok, just flash hydracore kernel which has cwm in built. Flash with mobile odin and you shouldn't raise flash counter, even if you do you can use triangle away to remove, then you're set to go.

If you have rooted and on a stock kernel.. then installing new roms are of a greater risk as this involves full wipe.. which triggers the erase...
its best to flash the hydracore latest version 5.1 using mobile odin... as this has latest version of CWM and is safe for wipes.. do a nandroid backup in recovery and then u good for other roms

With the root files which I downloaded from downloadandroidrom.com was included the franco kernel which upon flashing grants permanent CWM recovery.
Hope it helped.

You have stock recovery. Flash custom recovery first... Then you'll be able to flash roms.
Also, no rooting is needed to flash custom recovery. You flash it using odin.

Do you mean the "restore option"?
When I use this there are two dates I can restore but at the end I get the message MD5 mismatch!
Can I restore the GSM via Odin?

you need to install CWM (put on root of SD, Choose install ZIP from SD)
Make a backup of your rom when you install CWM.

That was already installed and I already worked with it but when I go to recovery it's not working.

I found out what the problem is.
The GSM is a Ace but when I start up the GSM it's mentioning S5660 and that from the Gio!!!
How can I get back the software from the Ace??

very vague question so difficult to provide you with an answer
how ever
have a read through the forums and you will learn about what those are and how to flash them and how they work together

Sorry, just a newbie here, but thanks for your reply.
Can I ask you where I could get this stock rom? I am planning on getting CM11 but I wanted to have a contingency plan first.

You can get original stock ROMs from : sammobile.com/firmware
Type on dailer *#1234# to see your current AP, CSC and MODEM version. Notice or note your AP,CSC and MODEM version (you need it if you want your original firmware back)
If you want your original stock ROM back then go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/ type your noticed version in the fields (PDA, CSC, MODEM) and download it. done!
Check Screenshot!
Note : you need a SamMobile account for downloading firmwares

Thanks! One more question, I have read that the kernel also changes when I flash CM11, if I would like to revert to Stock do which file is the kernel? Is it the PDA, CSC or Modem? I'm now downloading my stock rom from sammobile thanks to you!

In PDA
if you install a custom recovery example TWRP or CWM then you're able to backup your current Stock ROM and safe it on your PC, laptop or external SD card till you want it back . If you want your Stock ROM back then you can simple restore it via custom recovery
Note : a backup of the Stock ROM take very often more than 2GB!
Good luck with flashing
