Can not flash CWM :(

Hi I'm trying to install miui for my sister in law on her Galaxy S but I can't seem to install CWM.
I've downloaded rom manager from the market clicked on flash recovery (fist option) then from the list chose samsung galaxy s. The next I clicked on reboot to recovery but when it boots into it, it says at the top Android system recovery (3e)
What am I doing wrong???? :s
PS I don't have a memory card inside my phone trying to install via the internal sd storage. The also I don't have access to my pc so need to do it off my phone. Please any help appreciated thank you.

When you boot into recovery press the buttons a couple of times. Ie, 3button combo to boot, release all the buttons and press the 3buttons again. I have had the same problems on 3sgs's and this seemed to work on them.

No luck
Any one else have any ideas. Please any help is appreciated.

I have clockworkmod recovery installed and when i click on reboot to recovery or use the 3 button configuration it only boots into the android system recovery.
I can not for the life of me get the Cwm recovery to boot up.
Is there a kernel I can flash with rom manager to get cwm installed
Sent from my GT-I9100

It's definitely rooted? What rom is it currently on?

Darkys rom. Plus i have titanium backup installed and backed up my apps. Superuser is working perfectly.
I want to install miui the official rom.
Anyway I can without having to use a pc??

If it's on Darky's rom, it should have cwm already! Not sure if you can do it from your phone now mate.
Once you've got the cwm sorted (hopefully it's a gingerbread rom) you need to format system, data and cache, then flash Miui.

Ahhh.
Flash darky RE via Odin. But if you are running darky kernel you should have cwm. Uninstall cwm app and try again.

If i understand well, you can't use odin because you don't have PC,right? Well:make sure that your phone is rooted. Go to market and get that application : "sgs kernel flashar " the one by neldar.
Then download a kernel for your firmware, and make sure you download a tar file or obtain a zimage file. Flash it with the application mentioned, you don't need any cwm. After that you flash the new kernel you should have a cwm installed.
If i understand wrong I'm sorry.

[Q] Cannot install any rom on my Galaxy Note!

Hey,
I've a big problem
I got Rocketrom ICS installed before, but then I wanted to move to JB Paranoid Rom.
I know that i have to install before GB, cm9 or aokp. But I deleted all my stuff before on my external sd card, and internel sdcard.(I think that's the reason ..)
I am on CWM Recovery 6.0.1.2 and on my sd card I only got
XXLC1_CheckROM_NoteHD_V6.zip
ROCKET-v22-LA6-eybee1970.zip
GL_HYDRACORE_v5-4_OC.zip
gapps-jb-20120726-signed.zip
pa_n7000-2.16-29SEP2012-183104.zip
AbyssNotekernel42RedTouchCustomLogo.zip
I tried almost every to install, but then it stuck, sometimes after "Installing update..." or when there is written " Formatting ..." Or "Wipe..i dont remember".
I sitting the whole day here and didn't find any solution. I waited more than an 20 minutes to install it. But I dont think that this needs so much time.. Than I removed the battery and tried again...
Please help

[Q] Which Kernel to Update?

Hi,
I am using XXLSA-UNP right now. Can i use PhilZ-cwm6-XXLSC-XJB or will i have to use PhilZ-cwm6-XXLSC-XJB-v3.99...i know that only LS should matter but just making sure if XXLSC would work or not?

What does this mean.? Both are the same. Yes you can use lsc kernel on lsa rom as well.

will i again have to do factory reset and wipe cache and all...also when ever i try to move any app using TBP to external memory and after that when i restart my phone that app gets uninstalled and have to reinstall them...is there something that could be done to avoid this?

Changing kernel does not need any kind of wipe. Apps. Moved to sd removes its icon from the home screen. This was a bug in some ics versions, and it's in JB too. So this may be resolved in the official JB

so there is no fix till the time official JB is out? i mean someone might have tried to create a fix for this or not?

It only happens on apps that you force using tbp. The ones that give the option to be moved to sd in applications Works fine.

yes that is what happens, and i have another problem for which i do not want to create another thread, please help me with this...
i installed JB xxlsa to my frnds phone (no root), i installed PhilZ-cwm6-XXLSC-XJB...from pc odin and did factory reset and also reset system, data, cache and also clean cache and clean delvik cache...and now it is stuck on samsung logo with yellow triangle...i am able to go to recovery mode n download mode...in recovery mode it says "failed to mount exfat"...there is no external sd card...please tell me what needs to be done....

Well if there is no (removable) extSdCard then it stands to reason that recovery will report an error when it looks for it. Yellow triangle will occur when flashing any custom kernel with PC Odin and can be removed with Triangle Away app.
JB leaks sometimes get stuck on reboot. Try installing a custom LSC version and use recovery to install zip from (non removable) internal SD card.

In your last post you said reset system, data, cache. Does that mean format? If that's th case there is no rom on the phone to boot. You need to install a custom rom using recovery or stock rom using the download mode. :thumbup:

I missed the "system" part this time.

[Q] S5830 getting stuck in Samsung splash screen at bootup

Hi All.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 that I was trying to flash with
a custom ROM.
The problem is that it's always getting soft-bricked.
It gets stuck at the Samsung splash screen.
I have tried 5 or more different ROMS for this, but the result is
always the same, although confirmation message always say that
"installation was succcessful".
Needed to flash with stock ROM via Odin, just to be able to recover
phone.
I believe that I'm doing the steps correctly, I have a rooted phone, I
always wipe data/cache/dalvik cache using CWM recovery before
installing the ROM from the SD root directory.
Is there something I am missing here? Any advice?

Galaxy S stuck on custom rom logo

HI, so recently i brought a galaxy s gt i9000. I wanted to flash a custom rom so I install cwm and now have root access. problem is whenever i try to install a custom rom it shows the bar for installation in CWM and then goes to the custom rom logo. It does nothing else whatsoever after that. I need to take out my battery and restore my backup in order to get my phone working again from a bootloop. i tried putting the rom in both my external sd card and the phone itself. Also before installing i wiped the dalvik cache etc. Can someone please help, i've tried multiple roms so its obviously my phone. thanks
details:
Running JW4 firmware
android gingerbread 2.3.6

i9000 stucks in logo because your phone is not acessing internel memory...i have also got this problem..i dont have any solution..one thing u can do is that take your phone in download mode for 2 to 3 minutes approximately and then again on your phone ...this will work...But this problem comes again when u shutdown your mobile..another method is to take your i9000 in download mode and connect to computer and then download dbdata.rfs file put in odin in pda and apply ...these two processess will definately work fine to acess your internal memory

Just a few questions regarding how you installed the rom.
1.) What rom, first of all?
2.) After rooting 2.3.6 and trying to flash through recovery, did the phone skip to the kernel screen before continuously bootlooping?
3.) Did you try pulling your battery, then putting it back in, entering recovery and flashing the same rom again?
