Once I get into the recovery mode, selecting reboot to system, keeps booting me back into the recovery mode. I have to press the Power button and Home button for the screen to go blank and then quickly hold down the Power and Vol Down button to see the moboot menu. From there, the default option is Cynogenmod and I can boot into Android.
The /boot/moboot.default app has only one line and it's "CyanogenMod" (without the quotes). When I reboot the TPad, it reboots just fine. It's just when it's rebooting from the recovery mode, that it can't escape.
Any idea how to fix this?

I'm using JF 1.42 RC33 and went to the recovery and cannot leave. I've tried Home and Back, Talk, Menu, and Power, and typing exit. Nothing has worked please help.
hold hold+back....or remove battery
Do you mean recovery console or recovery mode? in recovery console, which is what you get when you hit alt+x, type reboot to exit. In recovery mode, if home+back doesn't reboot, try pulling the battery.
Hi all,
I have been using CM 6.1 Stable since it has been released and yesterday i decided to reinstall it. But when i tried to boot in clockwork recovery i was stuck in red triangle screen. I reflashed it trough the rom manager several times but there wasn't any result. Any ideas?
Press volume up + power. A new menu will appear - apply the update.zip and you'll reboot into recovery.

I'm new to this forum,
I tried to flash using signed-broodROM-JB-Release-1.zip.
I have followed these steps
Turn off your phone.
Reboot the phone into Recovery Mode by holding down the Volume Up and Power keys. When the Samsung logo appears, release both buttons. When “Android out of the Box” is displayed, tap the Menu button. DO NOT press the Home button during bootup, or else the phone will enter RAM Dump Mode.
On the recovery menu, select Apply update from SD card or Install ZIP from SD card.
Locate the twrp2.2.1-recovery.zip file and confirm that you want to install the file.
Reboot your phone afterwards.
Turn off the phone.
Reboot the phone into Recovery Mode as in step 2.
If you see the TWRP Recovery menu, then you’ve successfully flashed the new custom recovery over your phone’s stock recovery.
1.Copy the signed-broodROM-JB-Release-1.zip file and the Google Apps package to the internal SD card of your phone.
2.Turn off the phone.
3.Boot your phone into Recovery Mode. You can do this by pressing and holding down the Volume Up and Power buttons at the same time. You can then let go of the buttons once the Samsung logo on the screen appears. When the icon bearing an Android inside a box shows up, press the Menu button.
4.Select Wipe data/factory reset and confirm the action on the next screen.
5.Select Wipe and choose Cache. Confirm the action on the next screen.
6.Select Install ZIP from SD card. Select Choose ZIP from SD card and locate the signed-broodROM-JB-Release-1.zip file. Confirm the installation on the next screen.
Once the installation is complete, flash the Google Apps package in the same manner as in step 7.
Go back to the main menu and select Reboot system now to reboot your phone. It would take about 5-7 minutes to boot for the first time.
But NOW my phone is always starting with TWRP Mode...Help??
Is my phone bricked??

Is anyone able to get any options when booting into the stock recovery? It used to be that even if you didn't have a custom recovery, you could boot into Android recovery and factory reset as well as wipe the dalvik cache.

No idea how. Got into recovery, but since we have a Volume rocker we can't press both at the same time to get past the first screen. No idea what button combination works....

I dont have a Turbo yet, but my guess getting into recovery should be similar to Maxx:
1. With the phone powered off, press the VOL DOWN KEY for 2-3 seconds then POWER key then release.
2. The device will display different BOOT OPTIONS
3. Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL to Recovery and VOL UP Key to select
Tip: If the device reboots, you may have waited to long to make a selection, you will need to begin the process again.
4. The device will display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress ( logo with Exclamation mark)
5. Press and hold the VOL UP key for 10-15 seconds. While still holding the VOL UP key tap and release the POWER key
Tip: You can try this step, holding the phone in landscape. If you are stuck on step 6, try a force reboot by pressing the Power key and Vol Down key, and start the process again.
6. The device should be in recovery

Ahh... I completely forgot about holding the volume button down that long after getting into recovery.
Thank you!
Great!
But the wipe froze on my device and I had to reboot. Second wipe froze as well. Odd.

Mine did not freeze, however the wipe took what seemed to be 3-5 minutes... Longest cache wipe ever???
Edit: also did not get any sort of "upgrading OS" or "upgrading apps" message like on my previously rooted devices... Just the standard insanely fast boot.
Weird.
Recovery Options changed for Lolli
FYI, Wipe cache took 8 minutes on my phone and I've heard reports of up to 21 minutes.

So I'm trying to wipe cache partition but for some reason when I go to recovery mode it takes me to a different menu with less options. And one of those is wipe cache partition. And I'm doing the steps correct, hold down power button, home button, and volume up button then let go when the Android logo appears etc. But it still takes me to this different menu. Any help?
