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??
Sent from my GT-I9100

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.

Root.zip can be flashed in stock recovery. If you want permanent cwm,you must flash CocoreE kernel with Universal Kernel Flasher.
-Download CoCore E kernel and extract 'kernel.bin.md5'
-Flash it with using UKF

Use temporary recovery and flash root.zip with this

Yep if you can't enter recovery, flash the firmware back using ODIN as you can still go into download mode. Steps are here.

Ofcourse it boot normaly after rooting. What you expect to be after root? It just gives you root permissions. Nothing is changed in visual.
To get CWM use CoCore, UNZIP IT and transfer KERNEL.BIN.MD5 to phone, install Universal kernel flash and some explorer with root permissions like ES FILE EXPLORER. Open Universal kernel flasher, and open kernel with it and install it. Both things you have in Play store. Before doing this you need to root it.
P.S. To enter recovery turn off phone, and power on by holding Volume Up + Home (hardvare key below screen) and Power at the same time untill phone vibrate.

We don't install root yet, we need stock recovery for that. Thanks everyone

Apparently his stock recovery isn't working so he can't flash anything
Yeah, try to download a firmware from sammobile(ublph) (lqg) and flash via odin, since your downloading mode still works

I am sure that you two was not using right combination of buttons, or you did it wrong. Do like I wrote. VolUp+Home+Power, untill it vibrate.
He need external SD card, in stock recovery you can't install anything from internal memory.

1. That is stock recovery.
2. Root your phone, HOW: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jij-Bssni1s
3. Install CoCore HOW: Download it from here, unzip it and put kernel.bin.md5 to your phone (remeber where you put it). Use one with CWM, it is most similiar with stock one (that you do not get confused) Then install Universal kernel flash and ES File explorer. In Universal kernel flash thread is explanation how to use it, read it.
4. Reboot to recovery like you did (now it will not be stock one) and than you can install custom rom.
You can't install custom rom from stock recovery, that is why you need to do all this.

Dude the video you sent me has already costum recovery, i dont! And i rooted the phone already using this guide here http://www.androidrooting.com/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-s-advance-i9070-gingerbread-2-3-6/
Ok i am flashing the kernel but the program crashes after 4 seconds of execution ;/

Wait, that root method is for Gingerbread? You have GB?
If that is correct than install custom rom for gb only. Your solution is to repartition sd card. That's why you can't see it. I had the same problem, and I am telling you from my expirience. Search xda with "how to repartition sd card". Like I told you on my first post on this thread.

Just to know, now if you want to go back to gb you can't just flash fw from sammobile. You need to use guide for going back to gb.

Yes. For begining would you read my post that you just quoted. JetMOD is GB ROM. You can't just install GB ROM over CM. You can't even install JB ROM over CM (you need to change kernel first).
For JetMOD downgrade to GB, root and install custom recovery and than JetMOD.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2100642
If you want to be on JB still, then download your firmware from sammobile.com and flash it with Odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1985398
Do you have I9070P??? If you do do not install non P firmware, you will HARD BRICK PHONE!!! That error 7 was shown because you used wrong version of CM, if you have P than you should download for P.
P.S. Your sim card will work if you do FACTORY RESET. It should be always done on every ROM change.

yes, you bricked your devise. search for a thread which will unbrick the devise.
pls note, the devise will not work properly as before, it will have many issues.
but the devise will run if you follow the instruction carefully.

I don't think the device is bricked. Put some ROM in the external SD card and boot into recovery and flash again.

sherazzie, you could alternatively flash a stock firmware via PC ODIN, by booting your device into Download Mode.

You cannot flash the stock from using recovery. extract it to tar.md5 and then flash it using odin. If odin is not recognized, then use any custom rom. Make sure you have CWM recovery when booting into recovery mode.

N7000 - sticking during Odin flash - logo plus yellow exclamation triangle

Hi
Ancient history - I rooted my Galaxy Note a few weeks ago with a Philz kernel. I didn't really know what I was doing, but it seemed to work fine. This morning, my phone was shut down, and wouldn't start up, sticking on the Samsung screen. I read other threads here, and it seems like to fix this, I need to flash the same Philz kernel using Odin when in download mode, then start up in recovery mode, mount as USB and extract my files, then restart and reinstall files, and I should be back to more or less where I was last night. /Ancient history
I've installed Odin, started the device in download mode, found the correct .tar, connected the phone, and started the process in Odin.
When it got to restart, the phone is again flicking the logo screen on and off, now with a yellow triangle and an exclamation. Does this essentially mean I need a different kernel? I was hoping that reflashing it with the same Philz kernel would solve the problem, but it appears not .

I solved this bit

I also solved this bit. Please see the edited original post for the current problems.

if you already have flashed philz kernel, try to boot into recovery mode with volume up+power+home button. Yellow exclamation is nothing to worry about, it can be removed once you have phone booted up.

Yeah, I found that I can get into recovery mode, I mounted and backed up my USB, and then I did a factory reset. The phone now runs, and I'm finding myself tempted to put in a KitKat rom, because I'm a glutton for punishment.

The Step to install kilkat are:
Install The correct philz kernel version.
Install the raw kernel and reboot the recovery.
Full wipe.
Install the 4.4 Rom
Install the gapps.
Wipe cache and dalvik

You should start a new thread and describe your rom what you did, root or not, what kernel...in more details so that people can help. The issue in this thread is different from yours.

if you made nandroid backup from philz kernel then flash philz kernel, reboot recovery and try to restore. If you didnt include preload in the backup then that could be a problem. You can do a clean flash for the stock rom and then advanced restore and restore data.

If you tried what i mentioned and that didn't work then you can clean install stock rom and you can extract the backup on pc by using 7zip or compression tool and the reatore tbat using titanium backup pro. I haven't tried this ever but this ia what i was suggested by @nokiamodeln91
