Hello, I apologize in advance if this isn't the right section for this,
My captivate doesn't seem to be able to enter clockwork recovery mode. Whenever I select "Reboot into Recovery" or "Install ROM from SD Card" on Rom Manager, it just reboots to the Android Recovery.
Phone information:
Model: SAMUNG-SGH-I897
Firmware: 2.2
Baseband:I897UCKB2
Kernel: 2.6.32.9
Build: FROYO.UCKB2
I'm using Rom Manager v5.0.2.0 and ClockworkMod 2.5.1.2 for Samsung GalaxyS Captivate
if it matters, I'm also getting this notification from superuser saying "su binary outdated"
I tried updating it but it fails. not sure if this is relevant.
Any ideas/suggestions to access cmr?
EDIT: following instructions on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350266
got into clockwork recovery. help is no longer needed ^_^

Has this happen to anyone yet? I don't have a recovery, it just reboots into fastboot and if I choose recovery it reboots to fastboot... Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

If this happens to you, do the logical thing, or obvious. Flash the alternate recover which is "RA Recovery v1.7.01.1". For some reason ROM Manager v1.8.9.6 is not flashing the Clockwork Mod Recovery v2.0.0.7 correctly despite the fact it shows a success alert.
Same problem here but with the FRF72 , I am root but can not get in to recovery, or get the root fix working.forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=706232[/url].
Okay the RA was not reading my SD card and the Clockwork Mod Recovery v2.0.0.7 was not working either. So now what I did was, in ROM Manager scroll all the way to the bottom and choose "All ClockWorkMod Recoveries" and Flashed the 2.0.1.0, or perhaps choose something higher than the version you already have or is the latest.
so I recently screwed up while flashing Doc's latest ROM. Bricked my phone and had to go to the service center to get it fixed. Did not have the 3 button mode enabled.
Got it fixed on the spot and I want to get the ROMs installed again.
But now i have a new series of issues. I cant seem to get CWM installed.
ROM Manager give me a "an error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands!"
When i startup ROM Manager, it states "Superuser was not found at "/system/xbin/su"."
Installed Superuser and no diff. i get the above message in ROM Manager.
And I get a "failed" message when i boot into recovery to flash update.zip taken from here. http://www.mmus.us/forum/showthread.php?t=13957

If it helps, I got it from the Samsung Service Center @ PS(singapore)
update.
Managed to get root access thru this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
but still cant get CWM installed. placed the file in the phone, changed it to update.zip. and it "failed" to install.
Try getting the free Rom manager from market and patch up the update.zip from there.
I deleted the update.zip. then reboot into recovery thru Quickboot. then ran the update.zip with errors again.
3e is a *****.
Can't install CWM on Android 4.0.3 Evo 3D
I had updated my HTC Evo 3D OTA then unlocked it using HTC Method. Unlock success than I flashed recovery with CWM Shooter. Flash success but when I load recovery, the phone just boot up normally. When I open ROM Manager it says:
You must root your phone for ROM Manager to function. Superuser was not found at "/system/bin/su" or "/system/xbin/su". Use Google Search on your computer to find instruction to root your phone.
tl;dr below
I've recently flashed back to JI6 with designgears' ODIN Low REV0 and re-rooted, I downloaded ROM Manager from the Market and "flashed clockwork mod recovery" for the Galaxy S Captivate and chosen "reboot into recovery" and "install rom from sd card" each time following proper procedure and each time it takes me to stock recovery 3e instead of CwMR and when I try to "reinstall packages" I get the E: cannot verify update package installer blah blah.
tl;dr Clockwork Mod Recovery's being uncooperative, to say the least, and I just want to flash a new ROM. Please Help
ji6 its not stock, it is leaked froyo. That is why it is not working. Wrong odin
Thank you, I had a hunch that was the problem but I've done it from JI6 in the past. Oh well, thanks again.
EDIT: still not working, flashed to JF6 installed and flashed Rom Manager/CwMR and it still boots into recovery 2e instead of clockwork when installing ROM from SD card, I'm also still getting the e: cannot verify update package error
please read this and apply the fix:

Hi
I rooted my Samsung Captivate by using SuperOneClick, I am I trying to install CM7.
From the Marked I installed the Rom Manager, but it fails to flash ClockworkMod Recovery Samsung Captivate (MTD). It says "Samsung Captivate (MTD) does not have an official supported ClockworkMod Recovery yet. Have you installed a ClockworkMod based Recovery manually? Yes/No"
If I choose 'Yes' and select ClockworkMod 2.x it says "Rom Manager has been set up to use your existing recovery installation."
If I choose 'No' then the message is "Sorry! Until ClockworkMod recovery is availble, ROM Manager will not work with Samsung Captivate (MTD).
I tried to install CM7 from SD Card, it just return the the Samsung reboot menu (3e). And it doesn't have an option to allow me to select "Install zip from sdcard"
HELP Please

Can you show me the page said "Don't use ROM Manager"? so what software I should use to flash my phone?
I am new to this. Please help. Thanks
Ugh bad instruction from devs.... Just flash a kernel with CWM (Boog's, Corn or Samurai) jump on recovery and flash. Before you start make sure 1) your button combos work (if they don't or you want to get GB bootloaders) 2) have ALL the .zips that you will use in your phone before hand. If you flash one of the kernels I mentioned and you are on the wrong version of android it will NOT bootup, but will boot in Recovery (cwm). Once in CWM flash away as on instruction (if you wan't to Nandroid then you need to flash the correct rom/kernel before had)
Hi!! I'm new at the forum, I've looking for information and didn't find anything related. I hope this is the
apropiate section
I've a Galaxy Ace with Froyo, so I rooted it with SuperOneClick without any problems. Then I reeboted in stock
recovery and installed a .zip for ClockWorkMod recovery. Afterwards I couldn't boot into any recovery, but the
pone still worked. So I installed Titanium, made a backup, etcetera; everything worked perfectly. I've tried
to reboot into recovery with an app called CWM (same icon as ROM manager). Just opened it and press "Reboot into
recovery". Now the phone is not working. I can enter download mode (yellow letters saynd "Downloading...") but
Odin stucks in Setting Connection (same simpthoms of ROM manager). I hope you have a solution.
Thanks!!
