More Details, please..
ROM?
Normally you should reflash the Clockworkrecovery in Bootloader with fastboot flash recovery *NAMEOFFILE*.img
Make sure you are in the wright folder/location!

If it is a stock based rom, you need to re-flash clockwork (through ADB works best...), boot into Android and use "Root Explorer" to navigate here:
root->etc and find the file "install-recovery.sh"
rename it anything you want, i just add a "2" to the end. Exit and reboot into recovery and you should be set to go.
Stock Android will reflash stock recovery if you dont do this...good to know the Nexus is hard to brick in this way.

Same problem here, any solution?
There are tons of tutorials explaining how to tweak your Nexus, but none explaining how to fix it when everything blows up.

Just do what I said...Reflash clockwork and follow my instructions listed above and it will prevent Android from reverting to stock recovery. You arent bootlooping, the phone is just repairing itself back to stock recovery when you get the triangle.
All you need to do is rename that one file and your problem is solved.

Do you get to the fastboot? You may want to flash to stock and give it another go, or restore your previous backup...backup and backup some more. I have had this happen and a revert to stock, reroot works wonders to clean out the crap that builds up if you flash a ton of roms.
The worst that can happen is you get clean fresh Android and a clean slate to work off of.

I have a problem when ever i log into recovery it always says cannot mount? i have root access with the recovery properly installed (so i believe). The recovery allowed me to install superuser but it will not allow me to do a backup? iam running stock 2.3.4 rooted
any ideas?
Thanks

[Q] Won't Go Into Recovery Just Shows Red Triangle With Red Exclamation Mark.

Brand new Thunderbolt, I did have it rooted but just factory reset it, I no longer have root. I hold down the power button and BOTH volume arrows and get into the screen for recovery, when I go to it it gives me a black screen with a pic of a phone in the middle with a red triangle and a red exclamation mark over top the phone.
I want to root and get a new kernel but think it would not be smart to proceed until I fix this problem. Jeesh, had it less than 12 hours and broke it already haha.
So, how do I get it to let me in there so I can make a nandroid backup?
I'm pretty certain you need to be rooted to access recovery.
Well, last night when I WAS rooted I tried it and it didn't work either. Well, I will try that tonight around 5PM EST and let you know if rooting allows me in. Honestly, I factory reset the phone after I rooted it because I thought the way I rooted it messed it up. Now I am thinking that is not true.
You have to be rooted to get into recovery. Also, and I am not 100% sure about this, if you did a factory re-set and didnt re-root and then reinstall CWR then there wont be a recovery for you to access.
You're looking at the stock recovery. You need to reroot and flash CWM to be able to install custom zips.

A factory reset shouldn't cause you to lose root. That just wipes data/cache. I would return to stock, root again and go from there. There's a thread in the development section on how to return to stock.
Did you flash CWM after rooting??? You can't do **** without that.
Ok, here is what I did, i took a factory thunderbolt and followed all the directions on this link.
http://www.thunderboltforums.com/fo.../1233-rs-guide-how-root-your-thunderbolt.html
Then, I downloaded rom manager and busybox and was about to try and install a kernal. I wanted to make a nandroid back up and thats when I noticed this problem. I also think I lost my 3g access then too. So, I went to factory reset and then tested the root checker app and it said I had NO ROOT.
I am rather noobish so please make the directions on how to fix this simple HAHA. I am also wondering if the link above has good root instructions and how would I install a kernel on the thunderbolt? Even a link to a thunderbolt kernel thread would be sweet!! THanks!!
I will wait for someone to let me know if that link is any good before I root with it again.

CMW is ClockworkMod Recovery. It's the recovery you flash in ROM Manager.
Follow this thread for rooting. There's a few other methods in the development section that have scripts so you don't have to manually push through ABD. Doing it yourself is more fail safe though and also a good learning experience.

Downloading Rom Manager is NOT installing custom recovery but a way to do so.
Once RM is installed open it up & choose Flash ClockworkMod Recovery. That will install the latest recovery from which you can run backups and such.

See, now when I did my incredible I never even downloaded rom manager. I don't even know what it really does. I thought I held up and power when turning on to get into the menu and I was able to make the nandroid backup from that menu somewhere?

So... Just my 2 cents. You said you downloaded clockworks and busy box, but I never saw you reference super user. That should have been download number 1 after root. Without that, you're not doing anything.

In ROM Manager if you select "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery", Rom Manager will do just that.
It will flash your recovery.

Ok I guess I am not fully understanding this. What does it really mean to "flash" your "recovery"?
Does this mean to make a copy of your current phone, like a nandroid backup? Or does it mean to access a copy you have already made and revert your system to that prior copy? Or am I wrong on both?

The answer to your first question of the first link being any good...that would be a big NO. Your phone never rooted from the start due to faulty directions posted. As far as flashing a recovery from clockworkmod that basically means when you need to get to the recovery screen this is the program that will bring you there with the understanding that you flash the recovery. NOW to do that there is an option at the top of the screen which says
" Flash ClockworkMod Recovery "
Latest Recovery: ClockworkMod 3.0.2.5
Once you flash it will show this:
Flash CLockworkMod Recovery
Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 3.0.3.5
Latest Recovery: ClockworkMod 3.0.2.5
TO FLASH YOU SIMPLY SELECT THIS BOX AND IT WILL BRING UP A SCREEN TO CONFIRM PHONE MODEL AND THEN WILL ASK FOR SUPERUSER PERMISSION WHICH YOU MUST GRANT ACCESS TO AT ALL TIMES.

I never had clockworkmod work for me, and I get to the same screen when I use the vol up button and the power button. I am not sure what to do with that file you posted though.

I had this exact same problem on 2.3 .. I'd have to flash CWM everytime I wanted something flashed. If it doesn't do it the first time and it shows u the stock recovery, reboot and open CWM and flash again. Then flash the Fix and ull be fine . For me it fixed itself once I got to 4.0.x

Reason: on a stock ROM the /system/etc/install-recovery.sh script will replace any custom recovery on each boot. Feel free to rename or delete this file, the next recovery you flash will stick until you flash another Stock ROM.

Well i don't have an Epic 4G Touch so i can't say for sure, but it's probably exactly what i said before. Rename or delete the file: /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
No harm will be done, all the script does is replace the stock recovery on boot if it finds that a non-stock one is present. You can do this with ES File explorer, FX or whatever file manager you please (or terminal if you know how).

Going to root, am I doing it right?

I am on stock 4.0.4 with a locked bootloader. I want to have root with the stock rom, nothing else just root.
So I am gonna use the tool provided here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544940
I have already installed drivers and have the tool downloaded.
Then I would like to flash the stock google 4.0.4 rom that will let me receive OTA updates. Is this the right file?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1569509
Or can I just flash the stock rom from here?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1572307
I heard there are problems flashing stock rom with CWR if the stock recovery isnt removed? Thats why I dont know if I should flash the stock image.
Is the process of flashing rom with CWR recovery the same as with stock recovery?
My phone is the i9023.
Thanks a bunch in advance.

Sorry should have specified my phone in the OP.
Best way is to do it manually. You can find all of the steps required here. The only difference is that you should be flashing the latest recovery from here and the latest superuser.zip file when flashing with recovery.
Note, unlocking bootloader will cause loss of EVERYTHING on the device that you have put on there (sdcard, apps, data partition, etc).

You suppose thats better to do manually so I will have latest version of recovery and superuser?
And yes I am aware of the data loss waited sometime to finish all my games now I am ready to lose all my app data.

Do it this way. The one click is fine but using Android SDK and going through all that will help you in the long run. This way you know the process in case something goes wrong. It may be confusing at first but worth it. It will teach you a lot more than flashing a one click!
I learnt a lot from this and feel much more experienced and capable because of it. I know I will be able to solve any major issues using Android Debug Bridge (adb).
Okay then I am gonna try the manual way and gonna take out time for it. Now I just need to know what do I flash once I have unlocked bootloader and installed CWR?
I just want the stock google rom and receive OTA if nexus S continues to be supported by google.
You won't need to reinstall the ROM if you are currently on 4.0.4. The ROM stays there as-is. Feel free to do your wipes in recovery and reflash stock 4.0.4 through CWM if you must. You flash CWM to your phone and then superuser through CWM.
Steps:
Setup ADB/fastboot
Bootloader --> fastboot oem unlock --> agree
Bootloader --> fastboot flash recovery recovery.img --> this will give you CWM
Recovery --> flash superuser.zip and, if you must, wipe and reflash ICS (flash su AFTER this if done)
Reboot --> bingo
Also note, with stock ROMs it will replace your current recovery with stock recovery on each boot. If you want to keep CWM, delete /system/etc/flash-recovery.sh when you first boot. You'll have to reflash recovery afterward and it will stick.
Oh I was of the impression that unlocking bootloader wipes everything means it wipes the OS as well. That is nice if it's just data and not the OS, dont think I would reflash it if it's not needed.
Can you explain what you mean by will have to reflash recovery? I will have to do that even if I delete that file on first boot? And whats the drawback if I dont delete that file and stick with stock recovery?
As soon as you boot into stock android it will replace the recovery. So if that file is there on first boot, it will replace it while booting and you will be without CWM (stock instead). After first boot you can delete the file (you can reflash a ROM which has this deleted, or delete it yourself from a stock ROM, or even use adb or a recovery-based file manager to delete the file, then you won't have this problem at all) and it will no longer reflash stock recovery, but you would already have the stock one and need to flash CWM one more time to get it to stick. Easiest way is to just flash CWM and delete it within android imo, saves mounting commands and the such.
No downside really. If you need to flash something for one reason or another you'll just have to reflash CWM before you do so. Once rooted, ROM Manager can do this for you within android anyway.
I had already downloaded and installed the drivers from the one click root thread and my computer shows the android adb thing when I connect my phone with USB debugging.
But as you guys suggested I am gonna do the manual way. So do I just skip the installing driver on computer in the part 1 of this guide?

Because you have a Nexus S with amoled. That's the i9020. The i9023 is SLCD.

He has the i9023 to my knowledge. It is completely normal, though. Bootloader and recovery for i9020 and i9023 series are the same, this can be attributed to the issue with 4.0.3 recovery backlight not turning on.
If fastboot recognises your phone in the bootloader (the fastboot menu), your drivers are installed an working perfectly.
Finally got to the unlock bootloader screen, didnt do it just yet but now I know how to do it.
I must say the guide is a bit outdated, the software has changed quite a bit seems. The most frustrating part was that the fastboot file is actually in the platform tools folder instead of the tools folder which I didnt figure for a while. I will hold off rooting when I have a whole day off because once I lose everything I would be very anxious to get my phone back to normal which will take time.
Thanks for the help harbb, if I have any problem flashing recovery and superuser I will come back for more help.
And yes I have the LCD version i9023.
Btw the guide said the fastboot will be in the tools folder but the tools folder had a read me that "adb has moved to the platform tools folder" this is how I figured to go to that folder and thats where the fastboot file actually was.
Now it says I should put the recovery image in the tools folder so should I do that or put it in the platform tools folder?
In the instructions for the flashing recovery I am not understanding one thing.
6 - Then back on the SNS select Power Off (Reboot also works)
Part 4 - Root
1 - Power ON the SNS
So after flashing recovery I have to reboot? Since I am on stock rom that would bring back the stock recovery so how would I flash superuser then?
If I delete the stock recovery can I still get OTA updates?
fastboot and adb is now in platform tools, that is correct. Easiest way is to put your recovery in there too so you don't have to type in the absolute file path to it, don't put it in tools.
Don't power off or reboot the phone. After you flash recovery go straight into the recovery menu and root, flash custom ROMs, kernels, etc. You can transfer files to flash via the mounts and storage --> mount usb storage menu. After this feel free to reboot.

How Do I restore Huawei prism to stock recovery image???

Hello...this is my first post!!! I would like to start off by saying this forum rules and I have learned so much from you guys here. I have rooted, installed custom roms, bricked, and restored my sgs4g, galaxy exhibit, and huawei prism. The issue is with the huawei. Its not a bad phone, I was able to root it, install cwm, and flash cm7 to it (with the help of your wonderful forum :good The issue is with charging the phone. When you try to charge it while its shutoff it boots into recovery mode. I saw somewhere that it was the version of cwm I was using and updated to version 5. The same thing still happens with this version and its my teenager's phone so this is kind of a pain. Its backed up, and I realize it can be restored but I saw somewhere in your forum someone suggested to flash the stock recovery image. That would be great but I have had no luck finding this image. I tried flashing the only stock recovery image for huawei I could find, but it would not let me (install aborted). I'm running U8650 cm7, but I believe the phones a U8651 (its a prism). Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated

[Q] Clockworkmod recovery for spice mi410

Hi all i tried to use Rom manager to flash my Spice mi 410 for the first time. I wanted to install ice cream sandwhich, jelly bean etc on my phhone by using various custom roms available here. I was very excited and watched youtube videos about how to do it and followed each step like clearing cache, dalvik etc. When i started Rom manager it said i needed clockwork mod , i then saw its list but my phone wasn't listed , then i searched google endlessly and found a version 4 for the phone , i copied it and made backup and then flashed my phone, the update ended with success message but when i restarted it it got stuck in boot loop, then again i searched internet ; someone said it could be because of wrong version of clckwork mod so then i fond a version 5 for my phone when i copied it , it still showd a version 4 in rom manager but whwn i go to recovery mode there a version 5 is written. So now also whichever rom i install it installs perfectly but gets stuck in a boot loop. i have no idea where i might be wrong!
Sorry for being verbose but i am frustrated here as its my first time flashing but even after following all iinstructions i get no result. (And why the hell Rom manager couldn't automatically found a clockworkmod for a phone or use a single file for every model!! ) Please if you can five link to a valid clockworkmod recovery file for spice mi410 then i would really appreciate it or if you have any advice or suggestion please do tell thanks a lot.
I don't know when i will be able to taste ice cream sandwhich

thanks i installed it, but it says current recovery: clockworkmod 4.0.1.5 though its version 5. is this ok??
cwm
I don't know how to install CWM too
Maybe it is an error or something.
I didnt install it so I dont know anything about it.
Anyway you can try to install ICS
Hope it works.
Oh and btw you should flash it via fastboot.With fastboot you are sure that it installed ok because you flash it manually.
Hope this helps .

Sorry for a noob question...but what happens if something wrong happens with fastboot? will i still be able to restore it with CWM?
Well if the fastboot flash doesnt work your phone will boot into fast boot mode so that means you can flash your old version of cwm back .
