I am trying to go from stock rooted to CyanogenMOD 9 found Here
However when I use Rom Manager and try to install the Rom it boots into standard android recovery and not CWM. How do I fix this issue so that I can install the new Rom?
Because you can't.
you have to use overcome method to restock and install overcome kernel so you get ext 4 filesystem and cwm 5.x.x first

Hi Everyone,
I have the Samsung galaxy p1000 tablet which is rooted and running stock firmware version 2.3.3 ....i have rooted it using doomslord toolkit....
.....I want to install cm9 on my tab....but i want to make sure everything is good before i start doing anything.......
i tried downloading overcome but download stopped everytime.......
i have downloaded overcome kernel 4.0.0.tar though.....
i want clockwork mod recovery on my tab.....how can i do that?
i am on stock firmware so do i need to restock it through overcome......or flashing the overcome kernel would do it all....
should i flash the overcome kernel only......is it feasible to use that kernel for stock firmware.....will the kernel convert tab into ext4 thereby making it possible to flash cm9
please help me over this......
Thanks..
I did that before, flash the kernel, wait for the conversion to ext4, reboot and flash cyanogen mod. For me it worked for installing AOKP mtd.

You can always restock using overcome stock safe.

I have some free time today and so i will flash the rom today.....
Are these the steps i should follow???
1. Flash the overcome kernel only without restocking....
2. let it convert the system into ext4....and let it reboot after it...
3. Then shut down the tab and press volume down and power buttons at the same time till the clockworkmod recovery shoots up....
4. Then navigate to ' install from zip' and select AOKP BUILD 37(decided to flash AOKP) zip file....let it flash and then flash kernel(which kernel should i flash????? or does the AOKP zip contain it and hence it should be automatically flashed)
5. Then flash gapps.....
6. when it's done ....reboot
questions....
when should i wipe dalvik cache and data( before flashing AOKP zip or after that)
?????
also i read somewhere that i can revert back to original samsung firmware by flashing original samsung firmware via odin with "repartion checked".....
After flashing overcome kernel go to recovery wipe cash, dalvic cash, factory reset format data, then flash AOKP, the kernel is included 'z image' , then reboot system let it to complete booting, then reboot recovery again and flash gapps.
And that's right you can revert back with re partition but I did not try it.

My phone is a Captivate running 2.2 . I have rooted it, installed ClockworkMod Recovery via ROM Manager, and have an ICS ROM on my interal storage.
However, when I boot into recovery mode, I am taken to Android system recovery <3e>, which doesn't give me an option to install a ROM (or to continue installing a ROM, if I try to install with ROM Manager). I can delete cache, and 'reinstall packages', but that gives me a signature verification error.
Can someone tell me what I'm missing? Is ClockWorkMod Recovery not installed correctly? Is there a particular issue with 2.2?
Last week I put a ICS CyanogenMod ROM onto a Kindle, so I understand the flow of things.
Thanks!
"3e" recovery issue....
That's odd

What's the latest version available?
I'm using 5.5.0.4
How do you do an upgrade if necessary...sorry for the noob question.
I just don't want to brick my note with an incorrect CWM.
There is nothing 'wrong' with CWM v5.5.0.4.
You don't need to upgrade.If a ROM requires a different CWM, its usually packaged with the ROM and you just follow the instructions in the OP(ex. CM10 uses v6.x, but that doesn't mean you replace your working CWM v5.x, its fine to not be on the latest CWM).CM10 comes with CWM v6 and its automatically flashed when you flash the CM10 rom with your CWM v5.x
Hope you got all that
Hi
I have here a Galaxy Mini running stock Froyo 2.2.1 without an USB-cable.
My goal is to flash CM 9.
I rooted the phone with an update.zip containing Superuser.apk and the su binary. (I needed it for Titanium Backup)
I want to install CWM too but I can not use Odin (no USB cable). I downloaded CWM Touch 5.2.0.8 from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439751, named the file update.zip and flashed it with the stock recovery tool. - This seemed to be sucessful.
But now the devie is stuck at the "Samsung" logo everytime I try to boot into recovery. Booting the normal Android works fine.
Is there a way to flash CWM without using Odin now? (probably using linux "dd")
I would like to have CWM before I flash CM9 beacuse I want to create a full backup first.
Edit: Ok...I might have overlooked that this CWM is for Gingerbread.
Thanks
flashing through stock recovery may not work
you have to use odin to flash the recovery
one more thing is that you cannot backup stock rom
you must upgrade to gb to flash cm9 (bootloader incompatibility)

A full back up of what ?
If you try to back up your current ROM app data, then restore it on cm, there'll be bugs potential.

you are still running stock recovery.
ROM Manager doesn't work on Captivate phone at all. You need to read stickies in the captivate forums, then use Odin or Helmdall app on your pc to flash via usb.
your first step should be to uninstall rom manager.
then read about rooting and flashing roms in the stickies in the Captivate fotums. I recommend you do this instead of someone giving you a link to single thread.
if you will flash a stock Gingerbread kk4 rom after rooting your phone, then flash the Corn 7.06 kernel, you will have the recovery menu that allows you to flash Jelly Bean roms.
reading the stickies will help you understand what you are doing, reduce the chance that you have any problems, and help you understand how to recover if you do have any problems.
my first ever flash failed and because I had read the threads, it only took a couple of minutes to recover. reading the threads before is good.
