Can't access recovery - Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G

Hello, I was playing around with installing some ROMs and I think I might've wiped my clockworkmod recovery from within the recovery menu itself... The phone boots into AOSP and everything works as it should, but I can't access the recovery menu anymore, which I need to flash other ROMs and such. Would downloading the uvlg3.odin.zip from the ROMs, Kernels and Recoveries thread and flashing it with ODIN return it to stock AND install the stock Samsung recovery?

Yeah it would if you flash back to stock via odin

Problem accessing recovery

Hi guys:
I have rooted my phone today using SuperOneClick root. Then I have installed ROM Manager, and installed Clockwork Recovery Mod 3.0.0.5. I have being reflashing Clockwork and recovery menu via ROM Manager because when I turn off my phone and turn it up (holding up power on and vol down button) and press to go to Recovery then appears the error image that is like an Android logo, cellphone and a yellow caution sign.
¿Can you guys help me? ¿What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!
That's the stock recovery. If you still have a stock rom, it will restore stock recovery unless you delete the following files:
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
/system/recovery-from-boot.p

I don't understand.
I have installed to it CM7 last build. And is running without any problems, but I am scared that if I have some problem with the OS and I can't boot to recovery.
It has Clockwork Recovery Mod but I can access it unless I use ROM Manager to start it.
¿I need to delete those 2 files and It will be fixed?
Thanks!
That is definitely the stock recovery (Android with an exclamation in a triangle).
If you have CM7 installed, I've no idea how you got the stock recovery, but re-flashing another recovery should fix it. The two files I mentioned aren't included in CM7, so that's not the problem...

Agree. That's the stock recovery. Sometimes you need to apply the new recovery twice under rom manager. I did have similar experience. Install a custom recovery again. I beg it will be fine next time. Hope this help.
When I first rooted using a one click method my custom recovery would only stick for one boot. On the xda nexus one wiki there's instructions on how to install a recovery after one click root and get it to stick.
Hope this helps!

If you can get in to download mode, then you can use Odin or Hemidall. Most roms will root you automatically.
Not really. Not many roms are odin/heimdall. You need to root and install cwm to be able to install a custom rom

no you dont.
if you are on 3e recovery, then you just need to flash a kernel via ODIN that has CWM built in
CWM has nothing to do with root. on galaxy S devices it just creates an update.zip file
Rooting your stock ROM is actually not required to install a custom ROM, depending on which ROM you are installing. For some, all you would need to do is place the Clockworkmod update zip on you internal sd, along with the rom you want to install, then boot into CWM using 3-button combo, reinstall packages twice, install zip from sd and that should be it.
However, there are some details that you may encounter such as:
If you are on stock 2.2 you have to get around 3e recovery which wont allow you into CWM recovery without a hack. Or you can flash back to stock 2.1 to avoid this problem entirely (using ODIN3 1 click, if you know how)
This simple install is really for custom Froyo 2.2 ROMS, which looks like what you should be doing anyway if you have to ask this question.
Just READ as much as you can before you do anything.
If you simply dont like the idea of having root privileges you can remove root after installing a custom rom. I have done this for my friends in the past so they dont go do anything stupid on accident. There is a 1-click root/unroot app floating around the forums for the galaxy S that has worked for me on all 2.1/2.2 roms but never attempted with gingerbread as I use root and haven't flashed a friends phone in a while.

[Q] General Question For Flashing Rom

I currently some how got the rooting onto my samsung capivate. It's fully rooted just without clockwork recovery mod. When ever i try to flash it on the device it says successful but when i reboot into recovery it just show me the same recovery as before it was even rooted.
So my question is when flashing a custom rom on the device do i have to use odin or can i use clockwork recovery directly?
Thank and much appreciated.
If you have recovery 2e you can simply install clockwork mod. If you have recovery 3e install a kernel that has clockwork mod built in using Odin. From then on you won't need Odin to flash a custom ROM. Simply use the install from zip option in clockwork.

Flash the update.zip twice. Since you don't have signature verification error, I an going to assume you are on 2.1. You have to flash the update.zip, then flash it again. Then you should see cwm.

+1 took reinstalling packages 2x while flashing the CWM update.zip back when I first did it
+ 10 when I first flashed I had to select reinstall package like 3 or 4 times.

Why my GT-N7000 reverts back to stock rom and recovery?

I recently acquired a GT-N7000 device and as I'm used flashing custom ROMs more than often, I rooted it to be able to flash CWM.
The issue is that when I flash CWM, after reboot it gets wiped out and is reverted back to the stock recovery. Moreover if I flash a custom ROM the devices gets rebooted suddenly and boots into the stock ROM.
I wonder where is the problem here. Urgent help is needed.
Thanks.
Sounds like you haven't got full root? Are you able to write to /system?
