[HELP] [Samsung GT-S5570] I have no access to recovery after a flash CWM

Good morning.
Firstly please excuse my English...
Let me explain my problem.
With the idea of ​​making a backup of the rom galaxy s5570 mini for my wife before passing on gingerbread, (actually on android 2.1), I wanted to flash the recovery.
The original recovery worked well, I tested it.
I followed the directions for Roms customs:
-Odin installed
-installed the samsung drivers (Kies)
-download "tass-recovery-cwm.tar"
file-TASS_v1.0.ops
-started in download mode
-put the file or run it is necessary and all in Odin and start ...
Odin said OK
The phone will restart ...
I turn off, I test and I have no access to recovery. The phone is fixed on the screen "Samsung ..."
Basically no way to access the recovery. I tried to reboot directly with QuickBoot, it does not work more.
I redid the procedure a second time just in case ... it makes no difference.
I re-download the various files, TASS.OPS, the recovery, the Samsungs drivers (on samsfirmware this time) ... nothing better.
So now, if someone can help me ...
no ideas to help me?
i've tried to flash recovery too with odin and tass-recovery-cwm.tar, only thing what happens when i try to go in recovery is showing me:
RAMDUMP Mode ( ARM9 mode) and the Samsung logo.. it's just staying there nothing else and what i can do is use power button to reboot in normal mode which boots without a problem.
Later Edit: i've just played with the phone and it seems i can boot in recovery. after a 1st fail trying to boot in recovery (the stucked Samsung logo) i hold power button, the phone reboots and when i see Samsung i press the 3 keys and it goes in recovery.
Later Edit 2: so after more playing with the phone i figured that it will boot in recovery if you press only Home + Power keys, and not as many say VolUP + Home + Power.

!!! CWM will not work on Samnsug GT-S5570 !!!
- my phone was sent back for unbrick it, stuck on Samsung logo -
...so we cannot make a backup of our ROM...
PWR + central => Samsung Recovery
PWR + VolDown + central => Download Mode
PWR hold on for 4 sec => reboot
<what else ?>
What is RAMDUMP Mode ?
What is Quickboot ?
i have the same issue & i can't find any solution
Hi i also got this problem before. Just wan to share. CWM not working with the froyo 2.2(maybe depend on phone) i also got same problem with ur.. Just upgrade to gingerbread first then use the CWM everthing should be fine..
Due to new users i cant post any link.
Just pm me who want link update to gingerbread or you all can just search in here because that i wan to post outside link. thanks for understand..
Ok thank you, good news. I will try to pass on ginger ...
I wanted to do a backup before, but hey, I would not do it and that's it ..
Well after many having difficulty in passing on gingerbread, CWM actually works ... better. Thank you for the tip.
At least he started ... but impossible to make a backup ... it makes me an error message .... pfff ....
There might still be a way...,!
there might still be an alternative way than taking your phone into a samsung service center.., if you can still boot to download mode.. you can still revive your phone...,! flash it with Odin using the Gingerbread rom...,
wish I can help...,
sorry for necroing this thread .. but this thing just happened to my 5570 .. after flashing cwm .. i dont have access to recovery .. just as the 1st post says ..

[Q] Telus Fascinate & Gingerbread: Unable to Boot into Speedmod Recovery

Hey guys,
I followed the instructions from the following URL:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1227618
In regards to Rooting my Phone which is now running Telus Stock Gingerbread.
I have no problems flashing the Speedmod kernel with odin but i am unable to boot into recovery mode [vol up & down + power button].
I've tried the [Home + Vol up + power button] but still no luck. Wondering why other Telus Fascinate owners are able to boot into recovery when I can't.
Does anyone know why I can't get into recovery mode?
Thanks,
I did hear that a few of the telus fascinates do not have the actual hardware option enabled to get into recovery mode.
Has anybody else that owns a telus fascinate having problems getting into recovery mode?

When you are trying to boot into recovery (holding vol up&down+power) are you letting go of the power once the boot screen appears (The one that says SGH-T959D)?
I notice that if I don't let go out power it will continuously reboot. I see that another user in the link you posted is having issues with that CWM. Maybe try posting in that thread or wait for a response.
Are you looking for simply stock 2.3.3 rooted with CWM? Or something like CM7?
Thanks for you reply.
I would like to post it in that forum but I do not have enough posts yet to post in the other development forums.
I do let go of the power button at the right time because I'm use to getting it into 'Download' mode without any issues. Plus the fact that I have also tried almost every Volume up, down and home combination to try get it into recovery. No such luck through.
All I'm wanting right now is to simply get Gingerbread rooted on my phone.
Sorry guys it finally worked after numerous trys.
Cheers
