Okay so I rooted unlocked and flashed clockwork with the instructions here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970237
But when I try to boot recovery from bootloader the screen goes black then just pops back up to the boot loader and wont let me access recovery if I check in rom manager it says I have clockwork but why cant I access it.
Did you do this step in the process.
4) Tap and hold on the file "install-recovery.sh" and rename this file to "install-recovery.sh.old".
This is needed if still on stock rom.
If not you have to flash recovery in rom manager everytime you reboot

That's the stock recovery, not CWM.
You have to boot into bootloader mode then flash CWM recovery image from there. After flashing, select recovvery in the bootloader menu and you'll be in CWM.

Sounds like you did not remove /etc/install-recovery.sh if you've already flashed CWM and rooted.
This script is going to install the stock recovery image on each reboot. Boot up - remove / rename this file through root explorer or something similar (or adb if you like) and then reflash CWM either via fastboot or Rom Manager.

Flash recovery again, root if you haven't done yet, boot into Android, delete or rename install-recovery.sh in system/etc (need root and a file explorer that can read/write, eg Super Manager), flash recovery again.
(all recovery flashing is done in fastboot)
it is because of the nexus s gingerbread auto reflash to stock recovery .
put brainmaster's flashable zip cwm in your sd , then you no need to keep flash the recovery d
I was trying to root an infuse 4g.
So I followed the you tube video to install the modded 3e recovery and CMW.
Once I was in 3e and did reinstall packages, it loaded into CWM.
I then flashed the CWM zip from the following thread. 100% working ClockworkMod Recovery for Infuse 4G [GTG465x]
Then I went to flash CM7. I went to reboot the phone and constantly just boots into CWM and never boots CM7.
I can't get into download mode, so I'm not sure what I can do from here.
Anyone got any suggestions.
The phone does power up, but I just can't ADB or get it into download mode..
Get into recovery. There you go to mounts and storage, format /system, then reflash CM7 and gapps. That's how you flash CM7, you have to flash, format, then reflash.
hmm that didn't work.
The phone shows the Samsung splash, then loads CWM (v5.0.2.6)

When you flash CM7, it gets stuck on the Samsung splashscreen, you pull the battery, boot into CWM, then format/reflash. What did you do?
from the beginning this is what I did:
1. I used SuperOneClick to root the Infuse
2. Followed the youtube video to install the 3e recovery.
3. Continued with the video and used ROM Manager to install CWM.
4. In ROM Manager, used "Reboot into Recovery"
5. Phone rebooted, and I was in the 3e recovery.
6. Selected "reinstall packages" (performed this twice).
7. Once I was in CWM 2.5.1.2, I flash the zip in "100% working ClockworkMod Recovery for Infuse 4G [GTG465x]" thread and rebooted recovery.
Somehow I was loaded into CWM v5.0.2.6. (not I'm not sure if this is the correct version)
8. I went to flash CM7 and gapps.
9. Rebooted phone.
10. Phone shows "Samsung" splash, then jumps right into CWM. I don't even tell the phone to boot into recovery.
Now I been trying to get into download mode, but i can't get the phone to be picked up by Odin or into download mode to start over...
Pull battery plug in USB cord hold volume buttons while put battery back in this will put you in download mode

i can only boot a rom when i choose the recovery option from the bootloader. its the newest possible bootloader.1.14.005 i think.if i want to install a rom i have to go to the bootloader, then install open recovery with fastboot then reboot the bootloader , then reboot to the newly installed recovery wipe everything , install the rom, power off.boot into bootloader load the kernel with fastboot, then restart the bootloader an then if i want to boot in to the rom its just stays on the logo with the red warning, so i taught its a brick but then went to bootloder and chose recovery - this way is boooting the rom.
Please could someone explain it to me - is that the way to do it for now???
Tried to install open recovery from goo manager its says installed but its not, still boots the rom instead.
It sounds like you're flashing the boot image into your recovery partition instead of into your boot partition.
You are the man .Thanks ))
Hi,
I'm have been trying to update from kit kat to lollipop on my acer liquid e700 phone.The tutorial said that only philz touch should be used else i would run into problems.I have been trying unsuccessfully to install easy magic installer on my mac, but i always get "sorry adb root shell is not working error",despite adb given root access and usb debugging on, and i followed some tutorials about installing and tuning adb and fast boot.Yes! and the phone is rooted.
So now i tried installing philz touch on the phone and i've downloaded the .img file and zip file and tried flashily, and that doesn't work either.When i try to download philz touch within flashily,is says checking then says 'something went wrong, please try again.I flash the .img file and it says flashed completed, do you want to boot into recovery or flash more files.I click boot into recovery, but all i see is a black screen and the phone boots back normally, no recovery.I try it with a zip file, same thing, the screen gets black and the phone reboots, no recovery.I try to boot into recovery manually, and the phone no longer does.When i click volume up to select recovery mode,it just boots up and goes into normal mode, it no longer boots into recovery.
I try rashr and it's another failure.Philz touch doesn't load during installation.
Can someone please help.
Thanks.
