Hey folks,
I have very strange problem with CWM. I installed CWM clean without ROM via All-in-one toolkit. So, when i turn up the phone, it boots directly into the CWM, of course. Then mounts and storage --> USB mount (or something like that) and I transferred Cyanogen 10. It doesnt shows any error any time i install rom. But when i restart the phone, it stays around 1 minute at the LG logo and then...CWM again...
I tried many times to do this with different roms, but without success. No matter of the ROM, it just boots CWM directly.
Please, help. I will very appreciate it.
Flash twrp with aio and download a rom that fits your bootloader

2 nights ago I thought I would have a go at installing ULTIMATE ROM 3.0. I have flashed many Roms on my Galaxy S before and not had a problem yet. I have ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.1.0 installed.
However, this time- something went wrong. I don't think the installation completed properly. When I tried to reboot the system (to go back into my previous ROM) I wasn't able to. The Samsung logo appeared before the phone booted back into Recovery mode.
I tried to re-flash my previous working update.zip but had problems. I wasn't able to properly re-flash as the Installation would abort for various reasons. After doing cache clearing and data/factory reset I still had no luck. I resorted to reformatting the sdcard. Still didn't solve the flashing problem.
Throughout the whole time I was able to adb into the phone, browse the file system and I could push files on to it and take files off. But Kies wouldn't recognise the phone and Odin isn't able to complete a transfer to the phone (not sure why).
Today, I am able to successfully flash update.zip files (at least, that's what it looks like) but the phone ALWAYS boots into ClockwordMod recovery.
I am fast running out of ideas. Does anyone have any suggestion?
How can I tell if my ROMs are really 'there' but I can't access them because ClockworkMod is preventing them from booting?
hmmm... me too.. stuck in a loop, that keeps going back to the CWM recovery menu, and no matter what i do, keeps going back to it... cant even get to the download screen to flash (again).... here i was thinking no matter what happens when installing custom roms, i can always flash to my stable secure rom, but not this time... need some software that can perform surgical operations, any suggestions?

Thats too bad guys,and i m sorry to hear that news.I would like to havean answer but i dont...
The fact is that since most people in this forum use some custom roms,and all of us think the same,that we can always go back,so it would be great if you give some more details about what happened to you,and mybe why it went wrong,and it would be even better if one of the BIG guys would give some explanation about this...
I already thinking of not updating my rom anymore,dot want to end up in looping too,so lets see if someone will find something.Good luck guys..
By the way,i didnt get it right,CWM recovery cannot load your backup????
I just got an idea,but not sure if or how it would work or not.
Since you can push file with ADB,if soeone made a clean backup with his CWM (o e mail,contacts,setting saved) and send it to you,so that you log in with CWM recovery and flash that ???
Just an idea..maybe stupid dont know...
Its not very clear if youve tried this already but cant you just boot into recovery through adb? or does that not work either?
Hi all.
I've used standart OS for a long time and I decided to install CM10 (JB) using Clockwork Recovery 6.0.1.8.
First of all, have installed Clockwork and put CM10 and Gapps in sdcard.
After that, i start tablet in recovery mode and 've installed CM10 via Clockwork. Without rebooting, i have installed Gapps also via Clockwork.
But i forgot to wipe device before that
So after rebooting i got animated video with triangles. Waiting for 20 minutes... nothing. After 30, i switched off device pressing power button.
After switching it on, there is that triangles...
I have entered to recovery and wipe all data, but device freezed on cleaning cache. I had no choice and reboot it.
But he kept silence, lol. Nothing happened, black screen. Recovery also didn't work.
Connecting to PC... Found XPA device (or not XPA, i forgot). So i googled about it and download and install special driver.
Now device defines as NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for Mobile devices.
Odin cant see the device, ofc. Recovery isn't working.
nvflash --sync:
Code:
Nvflash started
rcm version 0X4
Command send failed (usb write failed)
(After this comand, device autounplugged)
I don't know what to do, please help me to recover my brick.
kudos on the full and clear report.
but too many parallel threads for same issue

Could you tell us what kernel are you using? Apparently, from what i read in this forum cm10 with old HC kernel will not brick while wipe. Thanks.

I am currently trying to reinstall a new ROM on my phone because all other ROMs have ended up deleted due to my stupid mistakes. However, everytime I choose install zip from sd card, mount, or factory data reset, in CW recovery 6.0.3.0 the phone shuts off and inevitably ends up in the bootloader. I have tried to sideload a ROM and then aroma installer loads up but as soon as i get past the settings and options and the installation begins it shuts off again and goes straight to bootloader. Can anybody help me with this. If I try flashing TWRP with the all in one tool it simply refuses to load period, so at least CW loads...
Hi,
So I had my ROM rooted, and I was messing around with the Xposed settings. I flipped a switch, the phone rebooted and it wouldn't boot anymore...
So I decided to go ahead and just flash a new ROM (ARHD 10.2). To my surprise, when I try to touch the sdcard partition or the data partition, the phone automatically reboots. I wiped everything (except sdcard and data, because I can't touch them).
I tried to sideload the ROM with no luck.
My phone is a VODAP304, HTC One 32 Gb. I can use fastboot USB and the recovery (latest clockworkmod touch). However, like I said, I'm unable to flash a ROM because I can't do that from the sdcard, and if I try to sideload it, when installing, it instantly reboots.
What can I do? Am I bricked? I'm really worried as I need this phone in a week or so because I'm going to be away from home for a few days
I have a Samsung SIII mini, Latin version (i8190L) and use it with the Virginity Rom, since the version 8, updating everytime a new one comes out.
Never had a problem whatsoever. I flashed the recently out Virginity V12 with aroma installer just to update. I backed up everything so I could make all of the wipes and then flashed it as new. The thing is that I chose the Honami Xperia Keyboard and I didn't like it because it was working somewhat buggy. So I tried (after just a couple of days) to reboot to recovery, to reflash the rom, just using the traditional S4 keyboard. To my surprise. I couldn't.
I can't boot to recovery, I can't boot to download and the bootloader seems to be locked as well. When finishing the installation and rebooting the device just after v12 was installed, the recovery gave me as a final option if I wanted to disable recovery boot, to which I chose no.
I tried rebooting using the button combination, but everytime I do, it just boots normally, as if I only had held down the power button. I tried also to use the built in reboot menu, which has an option to reboot to recovery or download, and either of them had success.
I don't know what to do, I don't want to be without recovery or download mode, in case i need them. Is this some kind of brick? the device is working perfectly, all of the apps work, and the ROM works fine, so I can fully use my device.
Also, I read on a previous post of a person who couldn't get into recovery but could get into download, he was told to delete the system file "install-recovery.sh" and then flash romracer's recovery via fastboot. I did delete the file, but fastboot did not work for me, it just kept saying "waiting for device" however my phone was connected and USB debbugging active.
Can you please help me?
Also, sorry if my english is bad, not a native speaker, and sorry if I'm too "noobbish" i'm relatively new to this stuff.
