Well I updated my CWM to the latest .5 or something because it was supposed to fix the charging while off problem, unfortunately now I can't get into CWM manually at all.
I used to be able to pull the battery, plug phone in, put battery back and turn on and it would load CWM. Now it just begins charging and then boots normally when I hold the power button.
Any help?
Heres what i do:
1. Shutdown the phone
2. Once its off, press and hold the volume down, then press and hold the powerbutton.
3. once in the bootloader, use you volume down button to select the recovery option, to click it press the power button and it should be on CWM recovery.
OR
1. Download ROM manager from the Android Market
2. Once installed, Click on "Reboot to recovery" or something similar.

I tried flashing chingy's gingervitis but its got all sorts of problems for me.
Can someone tell me how to get into CWR without Rom manager so I can flash my backup? I can't download it from the market because opening the market freezes and reboots my phone.
Turn phone off > Hold vol - (first) then hold the pwr button
Plug into pc...adb reboot recovery

If you want to restore a CW backup choose the "recovery" option.
Sometimes it will start scanning the P05IMG.zip file if you have one on the SD so take it off with a card reader so HBOOT doesn't scan the file, unless you want to just restore one of the RUU's then you can leave it there and install it from HBOOT.
I turn off my phone and hold down the volume button along side the power button. It will automatically go into Hboot and take me to this page. I just want to add another ROM I have in the root folder.
Power => Reflash
Vol - DN => DIAG

Have you deleted the img file from the root of the SD card yet? You need to get that off before going into recovery. I assume you have CWR (clockwork recovery) installed.
Also, try plugging in your phone to your computre and type adb reboot recovery.
I removed the file and the same issue.
Prior to getting to that reflash and diag page it briefly shows another page that sounds update in progress, jumping to diag
Alright, problem has been resolved. I ended up deleting the wrong file. Should have double checked!
I upgraded my ROM from 1.3x to 2.1x using goldcard. After i ran the RUU, it said that the phone update went successful and now the phone just keeps turning on and off without even letting me go to hboot. Please help??
if u have nandroid back up just try to restore, if u dont re flash your rom just make sure that you wipe sytem, wipe cache and try to restore factory settings on the recovery menu just to make sure.
how can i wipe the cache and files, my phone does not even start up the hboot, pc could not even detect my phone. please help.
access recovery menu by pressing volume up + home button + power on at the same time hold it until your phone boots up, then release power button when the phone power up but keep pressing volume up + home button until it reaches recovery menu if it still doesn't work tell me we still have ways for that.

Just confused, pressing "home button" included? also afaik its volume down+Power button.
Also, is recovery menu available even if you havent install CWM? i know its needs debugging to install CWM.

sorry "tol" kinda sleepy when i posted this, your right its volume down+Power, if the phone is already rooted there is a recovery menu already but not CWM, but you can install CWM using ODIN just find a CWM tar.md5 file so you can install this using odin.
its not working. i cannot get to recovery by pressing volume key + power key. any other way to do that?
Maybe your phone already bricked. Jtag will help you to resurrect your phone.
i made a mistake while flashing a rom, then i tried to boot into recovery again but i cant, i even used odin to flash the recovery again. still no luck. anyone has any suggestion?
Do you even know how to boot into cwm?

try this
try to force the download mode by :
1) remove the battery
2) hold down the volume down button
3) plug usb
4) put battery back
5) wait till you see the download mode screen
6) use odin to restore your original kernel/modem/firmware
Odin back to stock rom with stock recovery.. Then flash cwm over stock one
Just to make sure you are holding power and both volume buttons and letting go of power after logo screen

flashing a rom doesnt muck up recovery, power down phone, no usb cable plugged in, hold down both volume buttons +-, then hold power button until first logo screen appears, let go of power button while still holding down both volume buttons +- for 1 or 2 more sec, then release volume keys
Hello everyone, my brother just made a big mistake when install custom rom and now he broke his core
The device couldn't enter normal mode, it's always enter CWM. I tried to fix it with flashing but the device couldn't enter the downloading mode, when i press vol down + home + power, it tooks time to enter, and when i pressed vol up, it back to cwm.
What should i do then?
Thanks for your suggestion :fingers-crossed:
Go to cwm, Select reboot>Download. Download mode reboot option is there in Twrp recovery

I can't find it. Can you tell me more specific? Because i'm already use the USB JIG, when i plug it, the samsung logo was appear with yellow triangle below it. What i suppose to do?
If u have usb jig,the phone should have automatically booted to download mode! Try this- plug usb jig>hold volume down+home+power button(if it doesnt work try holding volume up button) If it doesnt solve,please take it a good repair shop
