SafeStrap Not Rebooting into Recovery - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5

Hey guys I just got the phone rooted and installed everything I need. I install SS and it says Installed. HIt the button to reboot into recovery and the phone just reboots and doesnt show the SS menu or anything of the sort. I have tryed many times. Also Could not find any info on this. Thanks

Can you see the Safestrap splashscreen normally, or js the issue only with when you reboot to recovery? If its the former then thag would mean safestrap is actually not installed, make sure you have busybox installed and try again, if its the latter i dont really know what to tell you.

what do you mean?
when i opened rom manager and choose the rom i wanted to install it asked if i wanted to wipe and backup or something but i know i check both. then i install the zip in the recovery boot menu and rebooted and no luck. then i tried another rom and wiped before installing and still no luck.
At the very top of rom manager, you must flash 2.5.0.1 recovery. Did you do this first?

So you flashed the clockworkmod recovery, booted into recovery and made a nandroid of your stock rom. Then, what rom were trying to flash?

This exact same thing happened to me. What I did to fix it was pull the battery, then wipe everything (dalvik, data, cache), and then rebooted. My phone was able to boot then.
I'm having the same problem with rom manager. I just rooted my desire using the unrevoked method, then ran rom manager. I did install the recovery mode first, then backed up the rom. How my desire is just rebooting to the htc screen. How do I get out of this?
Many thanks,
Joe
dumb question, but how did you wipe everything?

Hey, that's exactly the same issuing I'm experiencing now. Did you solve it? And if yes, how?
Well, a few hours later I solved it by restoring a backup and then booting went well. Also described in a thread on androidforums dot com (I can't enter the link here due to not having posted enough messages) .

I don't know if this helps, but I'm pretty sure nandroids are specific to which recovery they were created with, I read that somewhere a few days ago. If you did not have clockwork before, I would try getting the recovery you used to make the nand, install that recovery and then restore the nand. Then try the whole wipe everything and get clockwork and go to town. If you haven't tried RA/Darch 1.7 recovery, I would recommend it, I personally like it better than clockwork, it seems faster, and simpler to use.
Exactly What "Il Duce" Said Will Fix Your Problem, Same Exact Thing Happened To Me, What I Did Was Go Back To Previous Version Of Rom Manager Then Flash Alternate Recovery, AND Regular Clockwork Recovery, Should Be Good After That!

I flashed it, but now I am unable to boot into recovery. It takes me to the bootloader instead.
The only way I can get back into recovery is to flash and older version of CWM. Is anyone else having this issue?
Same problem here, with i9020.
i've a german nexus s (.23) it works very well!

I have the same proble. I have to flash back to CWM 3.0.0.0 to able to go to recovery mode. I'm not sure whether it's becuase I rooted my wiht this methode "Root & custom recovery WITHOUT oem unlock & wipe ".
Any suggestion? Or just stay with CMW 3.0.0.0?
You can try this one. In the same forum. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=988686

It also killed my recovery.
This killed my recovery too. I did as Suprakarma suggested and all is well.
From within RomManager, run the fix permissions script.
(This had a problem on my device, it appears it doesn't like the BusyBox that Titanium Backup installed, so I had to install a new copy from the market).
Once that script's finished, reboot, then reinstall recovery from Rom Manager. Boot into recovery.
Hope that helps.

Just out of curiousity, can anyone confirm if this recovery works on the i9023 or i9020a?

[ATTN] Official ClockworkMod supported Droid 3 Bootstrap Release by Koush

Today, Koush added support for the Droid 3 to ClockworkMod.
This includes releasing a Droid 3 Bootstrap which I believe he'll have some download links for or be placing on the market.
BEWARE: If you plan on using the new bootstrap from Koush, PLEASE use the "Remove Recovery" button and uninstall my Bootstrap APK before installing his.
Don't use 2 Bootstrap APKs together. Universe Explode. Or, maybe it could be unpredictable if you decide to remove mine later.
Thank you for listening to this public service announcement.
i see it in the market
Whats the difference with this one and yours Hashcode? Are you still updating yours?
-smc
Its the newest version. It works with rom manager. Probably flashes all partitions, but not sure.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
So you don't need to install bootstrap before installing this?
So quick question, if we were to flash something and it ended up boot looping, like flashing a theme, how do we get back into cwm if we can't get back into android to access the app? Need to be able to restore in case something like this happens.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
No. You have to uninstall the previously released bootstrap/recovery. After which you install this new one.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
Yep uninstall Hashcodes version from his app, then install the "Droid 3 bootstrap" on the market or from here http://t.co/IM110WZ3 then use clockwork mod to install the recovery for Droid 3 in the flashable list.

Yeah i'm also curious how your supposed to get back into recovery in case of a boot loop?
Are either you or Koush going to be continuing work on your alternate-system-partition scheme for making 2nd-init not an accident waiting to happen?

This. It is nice having official support, but the idea of keeping a 99% pure system and almost no risk of fubaring 2nd-init is extremely attractive.
Hmm not sure how to access the recovery from device power down using this, going to bptools just initiates a normal start up.
-smc
I too hope we see the 2nd init partition I Don't plan on installing the official at this point.
I used Hashcode's app to uninstall his recovery.. rebooted... downloaded Koush's Rom Manager from the market.. installed... started the app and flashed clockworkmod recovery... gave su permissions.... clicked Reboot into Recovery and it just reboots normally... no CWM... am i missing a step? is there a keyboard combo that will boot into CWM... vol-down+power only takes you to fastboot..
Thanks to all for continuing to develop this phone!

yeah, you need to bootstrapper app, and i believe you need to click bootstrap recovery everytime you need to reboot into cwm.

Thanks! worked perfectly! I couldn't see the forest for the trees
I seem to be having some issues getting this to work.
I uninstalled the Hashcode recovery, then removed his app. After that I downloaded the Droid3 recovery from the market and installed that. Going into Rom Manager, after a reboot, I was it did not list any Clockwork as being installed. I clicked on the list and Droid 3 was now one of the options so I applied that and went to test by having Rom manager reboot into recovery.
It sat there for a good 5 minutes on the red Motorola logo. Pulled the battery to reboot and it booted fine but I cannot figure out how to access the recovery.

Using the bootstrap app make sure you click bootstrap recovery then reboot recovery using the app. See if that helps.

[Q] Problem installing MIUI 2.5.25 using Rom Manager

Hello,
Today I tried to install MIUI 2.5.25 for my N1 using Rom Manager.
After it's installed it automaticly boots into recovery mode, so i pressed "reboot system now" but it booted into recovery again. So I had to restore my backup.
What could be the problem?

did you do a full wipe ? before installing rom maybe that why is causing your problems
Yes, I checked the options Wipe Data and Cache and Wipe Dalvik cache in Rom manager. Or do I need to do this a different way?

you have to flash it from recovery and do wipe in recovery find the rom you downloaded in rom manger in sd in download folder i think not sure but save that zip/rom in your pc then do full wipe then try installing rom again
That didn't help, it boots into recovery again. Anything else i could have done wrong or forgot about?

umm not that i know of did you ask people on that rom thread ? that will surely help you you did do a full wipe correct ? your using CWM Recovery or Aroma Recovery ? try using aroma if that dont help then use 4ext recovery and if that fails im sorry bro i can't help you anymore
Okay, no I haven't asked yet. Yes I use CWM. Thanks anyway!

I don't know anything about hboot, I just rooted my phone and than I downloaded MIUI and installed it. So I also guess non blackrose version.
As urs is a non blackrose partition its stock.so its not hboot prob..why dont ur try it from the beginning..using recovery..wipe all 2x then flash zip
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA
Still the same problem. Also if I boot into recovery I get a warn sign if it boots and than it doesn't starts recovery mode. If I install CWM again (using rom manager) I can boot into recovery without any problems. I had this a few times now. Could that be the reason?
If you shut down the phone, then hold the trackball and power, you should boot into bootloader (hboot).
You should then have an option to boot into recovery.
ROM Manager only allows you to reboot into CWM and no other recoveries, as far as I know.

Check out the ROM thread, I guess the latest MIUI needs special disk partition. Also post ROM related issues in the thread for quick and appropriate response.
I read about it already, and i wanted to post it there too. But I need to have posted at least 10 posts to post on the development page. But isn't it strange there is a non blackrose version if that one doesn't work anyway? And do you know anything about the warn sign I told about?

I'm trying to install blackrose now. I downloaded the latest version but when I launch the blackrose.exe it automaticly closes again. What could be the problem?
BTW, does my bootloader need to be unlocked for this?
No. its not compulsion for bootloader to be unlocked. might be due to bad download. try downloading again and turn off ur anti virus program while doing it.
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
Thanks! Turning off my anti virus did the trick
Glad it worked buddy. the reason behind it is that Blackrose uses some exploit and it makes antivirus program consider it a threat, while it really isnt

Help please....boot looping

Ok guys,
Im not even new to flashing phones but no idea what the heck happened....
To cut a long story short I tried Renovate which was great but i couldn't change my keyboard so I figured I maybe selected something wrong in aroma. I reinstalled it over my current set up and chose a different set up and flashed. Done. Great. When i tried to reboot it would just boot loop into the recovery.
Now i searched and saw similar issues which were fixed by relocking, and then unlocking the BL which I did but now its even worse. I can't even get into the bootloader. I can leave the device and it bootloops into the recovery but it fails to mount anything so i cannot flash anything at all....
Anybody please can guide me in the right direction?
THanks

Hi there,
I can get into recovery fine again since I found the light trick which does indeed work. Unfortunately as mentioned it wouldn't mount anything like my sdcard etc. I have just tried to format it which worked so I am trying again to sideload to see if that works
as i stand now, the phone is clean with nothing. I can get into fastboot and recovery. CWM installed.Any other ideas please?
cant believe this happened literally from nothing....

do you have the non branded One right?

I think the reason it is not reading your sd is because when you flashed 4.2.2 it moved the data to some other directory.
