adb reboot recovery

Are you talking about cwm(orange or red) or 3e recovery(blue & yellow). If your trying to get to recovery with cwm you need to Odin the modded kg4 kernel(yes it works with kh1). Until you do that then you will only get 3e recovery.
To get to recovery hold volume up and down and power till the first splash screen appears then release. Hope this helps you
***Edit***: you need to flash drhonks kernel. Sounds like somthing didnt take.

cwm - orange
and that's the thing, when i hold volume up & down with power key, it goes to the splash screen then it goes no where. if i let it go it stays in the first splash screen, if i keep holding it, it loops. the only way to get the phone started is to touch the home key after that first splash screen
odin.. uhoh
Yea I would suggest odining the kg4 leak. It sound like you bootloaders are messed up. Odin will pick it up right?

Sent from my SGH-T959V using Tapatalk
extract the far, in there you will find some tars. The first one which is 290+ mbs, is the one that you put in the "PDA" section. The one that has "CSC" somewhere within the title is put in the CSC section, the one with "Phone" is put in it's corresponding section. the .pit file is put in the top left pit section. Make sure you have the samsung drivers. If you don't, you are A, either nothing is going to happen, or B, you will end up with a 600 dollar brick.
So flash up, Then flash the GB voodoo kernel.tar in the PDA section.
Then go to cwm, flash what you want to flash make sure it has the GB voodoo kernel in it as well, then go to the voodoo section of recovery, disable everything, then reboot. You will have recovery on GB

If you want to know how to get into red cwm, simply hold the power button and press on "Recovery" or manually do it by fully powering down ur phone. And then hold both volume buttons down and hold the power button. When the samsung logo appears, let go of the power button and itll boot into red cwm.

Red cwm
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
CWM installed via ROM Manager is the same as any other CWM for our phone. CWM means ClockWorkMod Recovery.
However, for whatever reason, when accessing CWM by using "Recovery" from the poweroff menu (only on custom ROMs, not stock to my knowledge) and via the trick mentioned above (Although I think it's either VolUp or VolDown only when powering up - both leads you to bootloader mode, aka Odin downloader mode), the text of CWM is red. AKA "red CWM".
When you enter Recovery via ROM Manager, you get Green CWM (all text is green) - Don't know what the difference is or why there is one.
Rule of thumb. If you are on stock, you may flash any rom from Green cwm and via rom manager.
If you are on any Voodoo enabled rom with lagfix (which all of these custom roms are), DO NOT EVER use Rom manager to flash anything. It flashes from green cwm, and you will brick.
Manually copy the ROM to your SD card and boot into red CWM, and flash from there.

if this hasnt been properly cleared up clockworkmod developed cloclworkmod recovery and rom manager. cwm recovery can be used independant of rom manager. rom manager is just an app to access the features of cwm recovery when the phone is booted. but using any of those features will cause the phone to reboot into cwm recovery to complete the action. rom manager also has an interface to download roms and make unique names for your backups.
there are many versions of cwm recovery. some use edify scripting, some use amend scripting. there the infuse uses the same versions of cwm recovery as the i9000. but there is also red cwm recovery which is modded with controls for voodoo lagfix and is integrated into voodoo enabled kernels. if you have a voodoo kenrel installed you have red cwm and should be able to get to it from rom manager, but it may try to launch the update.zip instead.
rom manager is not needed, it is totally optional. having rom manager doesnt automatically give you green cwm recovery. you still need to flash it. (unless you have a voodoo kernel)

when they are talking about mounting, what does that mean. I see it in recocery, but when i select it, nothing happens.
Ok, I flashed the rom in recovery and it just sits on the splash screen. It's not boot looping, just sitting on the splash screen.
look up the noobs guide to odin in the bible and follow that. you should be up and running after that.
Well, I attempted to use SGS kernel flasher to install the infuseGB kernel. Now I'm stuck with a bootloop and I need help fixing it.
Anyways, Odin confuses the crap out of me. I put my phone in download mode but all odin does is light up a box with com3 in it. I've reinstalled drivers but I'm not sure what to do next.
All help is appreciated.
I had a similar issue after flashing a kernel that way.
What ended up fixing the boot loop was using Odin to flash the stock Rogers kernel.

There's three ways...
1. SGS flasher (obviously not working for you)
2. Flash from recovery if kernel is in a zip file
3. Flash through Odin or Heimdall
Remember to flash a GB kernel you must first be on a GB rom!

download the attatched kernel zip
Open SGS Kernel Flasher, select choose kernel, select the file you downloaded, and select flash kernel. Your phone will reboot and begin to enable Voodoo lagfix. Let it do that and boot all the way up. It will take a while (5-10 minutes) because it's converting all partitions to ext4.
Download chosen rom zip and place it on your internal SD card.
Power off your phone.
With the phone powered off, hold both volume keys and the power button for about 10 seconds and then release. This should boot you into RED CWM.
Select "install zip from sdcard" and select chosen rom zip.
Once that finishes, select "wipe data/factory reset".
Select "reboot system now".
once rebooted sgs flash the any GB kernel you want, remember to read and make sure which ever kernel your choosing is GB or Froyo
I flashed it, and thankfully it didn't bootloop. However, my cwm is still green.
Scratch that, we are in the red now! You are a king among men.

That sounds like the rainbow screen. If it's a bunch of multicolored pixels, then you need to flash a ROM with the proper bootloaders.
it is the rainbow screen and i have 2.3.6 stock, can u tell me what i need to flash it with to get root and custom recovery??
Use the 3rd one-click. Follow the directions on the page, though, because you'll have to flash twice. The 2nd time you need to make sure "Flash Bootloaders" is checked.
After that, I'd suggest flashing [KERNEL]Subtly Modified Stock with CWM5 + Voodoo Lagfix [02/24]. That will get you on the latest beta kernel with the latest CWM, it's rooted, & has voodoo lagfix.
i have tried the 3rd link, but it always gets stuck on the rainbow screen, but ill try again
We keep saying to flash bootloaders. So you need to flash it twice. The second time you flash check the flash bootloader box.
the first time i flash it with it gets stuck on rainbow screen, it wont load the android so that i can flash with bootloaders the second time
You need to put it in download mode, so it shouldn't need to boot up all of the way.
you just have to put it into download mode again

i got everything working, thanks everyone for the help
I tried searching, but the search is down?
I have spent several hours looking.
I used odin (phone went into download mode without issue) to put my phone back to stock so I could get the ota update.
Went back into download mode with Odin to install CWM, this "passed" and after a restart my phone went into samsung recovery, not CWM.
Now my phone will not go into download mode? I tried different cable, ports, etc.
any help?
so what is it doing since it's not going into download mode.
it wouldn't do anything, I finally reinstalled the drivers and after holding down the power and volume - let go... nothing! push the volume - twice and it went into download mode. Odin recognizes it and goes through the motion, but the phone has a AX_timeout in red at the top left corner of the screen?
Odin continues and say's passed, but when I try to reboot into CWM it hangs on the samsung logo.
It will not boot into recovery, but it will start the phone and everything seems to work.
im using odin 1.83 / windows 7 64bit.
Remove the battery, put the phone in download mode, put the battery back in, and flash CWM. Before you fully boot the OS, flash a custom kernel. If you don't flash a custom kernel, the default kernel will overwrite CWM with the default recovery.

If you happen to flash a ROM that doesn't include the script that the kernel calls for the overwrite, then you could have ended up with CWM on a stock kernel.

There is. You can download the Superuser CWM to your phone, flash CWM, boot immediately to CWM (don't let it boot normally), flash Superuser, and reboot.
At that point, if you desire, you can delete /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and reflash CWM if you want to keep it.
