CWM and Korean Devices? - General Questions and Answers

Is there something about Korean devices that makes them not play nice with ClockWorkMod
I have a GSII and a wifi Galaxy Tab 10.1, both of which were bought in Korea, and I can't get ClockWorkMod Recovery to work on them.
When I try to flash CWM Recovery from within the app and it asks me to "Confirm Phone Model", the only options on both devices are Galaxy S i9000 and GalaxyS (MTD).
On my GSII, I flashed the Galaxy S i9000 Recovery, and I can boot into it, but I just get an error when I try to backup ROMs and such.
On my Galaxy Tab 10.1, I flashed Recovery using Odin, and I can boot into it, but Recovery seems to have a seizure when I do - the screen flashes, and the option scroll up and across the screen in a fast, erratic fashion. Recovery still seems to be working though, because I managed, with great difficulty, to use it to flash the root exploit.
Both devices still show the old bowler hat icon even though I have downloaded the latest version.
Could there be something that I'm overlooking, or doing wrong

[Q] Galaxy mini S5570-Can't boot to recovery after flashing ClockWorkMod recovery

Hi,
I've recently flashed ClockWorkMod Recovery using Odin to my Samsung Galaxy mini S5570 device,
the opertion was succesfull (Odin said PASS), but now when I try to boot into Recovery (pressing Middle button and power button) the device just get stuck in the Samsung screen (the first screen you see when you regulary power on your device).
Will be glad for some help!
*Any Ideas how to fix this problem? or why does it occur?
1) Will HardReset/FactoryReset the phone will uninstall ClockWorkMod Recovery?
2) Do I need to ROOT my device prior to the flashing of ClockWorkMod Recovery with ODIN?
3) Can I remove/uninstall the ClockWorkMod Recovery?
Thanks advanced for your help!
Same issue
Hello,
I've got exactly the same issue and do not find any answer
Thank you for your help!

Same here..
Same problem here, It just shows the samsung logo and that's all, I can't finish installing firmware
Stuck with first screen
I am also stuck with the opening screen. Prior being bricked the phone went through the washing machine. Board was cleaned. It still has carrier SIM lock on it. I am digging the forum for imput, but no luck so far.
With USB clable plugged in it shows only a small phone and computer icon with yellow triangle+exclamation mark on the dotted line between them. Cannot load the hard reset menu. The Download menu with big triangle comes up, that showed at least the display is working.
Odin 4.38 was able to flash the Clockworkmod, but no Gingerbread or some other update. The time runs happily but MIBIB will not load, and i must turn everything off.
I have the same issue. Wondering if there is a fix for this. Can boot into download mode but not Clockworkmod Recovery. Stuck at Samsung screen.
Okay well I found a fix!
I was trying to update CWM Recovery via Odin when I still had Froyo installed on the device. Classic rookie error. You need gingerbread to use the latest CWM. All I had to do was install an official samsung gingerbread ROM via Odin and then I was able to re-install CWM sucessfully. Now running CM9 on my Galaxy Mini and everything is great, very snappy (few bugs though)

[Q] Galaxy Tab 10.1 boot problem

Hello. i am new to XDA so please let me know if iv done anything wrong.
My problem is i rooted my galaxy tab 10.1 with starburst ROM. starburst came with android 3.1. I noticed that when zooming in on web pages made my screen rotate so i thought i would check for updates. There was an update for bugs and stability wich was about 3.2mb in size. I think i may have chosen japan instead of U.S, woops. Well anyway when my tab restarted it came up with the first samsung logo, the one that says, samsung galay tab 10.1, under that it had a progress bar wich got to 14% and then stoped. Every time i turn on my tab it gets to the first samsung logo then the screen goes blank, and does not do anything. iv tried going to recovery but it says updating application and thats it, it reboots again, i cannot factory reset. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
The update was intended for unrooted tablets, since yours was rooted and had a custom rom installed, it could have mixed the files and kept it from booting. Can you access fastboot?

[Q] Flashing ROM

I Have a Samsung galaxy S3
Have been flashing roms for a while now, but the latest one installs correctly and then when it reboots it shows the samsung boot screen but then switches of after that. Any reason why this can happen?, I have tried different setting but could not come right yet.

[Q] Ace2 s7560 as a s7562

Ok, a long story here.
My son dropped his Samsung Ace2x s-7560m phone. The screen cracked. I bought a replacement screen through a reputable seller on ebay.
After installing the screen, the s7560 starts, but freezes on the Samsung screen, then boots over. This goes on and on.
I rooted the phone and flashed a 7562 stock rom to the device. The only difference between the two devices is that the 7562 is a dous phone.
The flash went well, and after rebooting, the phone boots up. It starts out as a 7560, then the screen flickers and becomes the 7562 duos.
The phone boots up. I can surf online using wifi, and the screen reacts as it should for the whole screen.
Now, when I try to call out the call does connect, but I can't end the call. The phones network does not work at all.
I have tried to enter into the recovery and can , but only by using adb. The key combos don't work. I can get the phone to boot into download mode.
The bootloader still shows as a 7560, and the software shows as a s a 7562. I think what is happening is the seller from ebay has sold me the duos screen instead of the 7560. He has refunded the money, and told me to keep the screen, so now it has become a bit of a challenge that I will defeat.
I am wanting to get the phone working. I have found a rom called kyleopen, but all the download links are removed or not working. I can put other files like cwm into the download file. When I try and access the sd card, I get an error that it can't mount it.
So..
Is there a custom rom that works on both the 7560 and the 7562 that can be installed using odin?
or:
Is there a way to flash the bootloader to be a 7562 model?
Is there a way to correct the screen issue..whereas I can still use a 7560 rom, and the screen will be detected.
As stated, I am trying to run the 7560 with a 7562's screen. I am guessing the digitizer is a bit different from device to device, and that the 7560 is just not recognizing the screen as being there. I have tried to flash the stock 7560 rom back onto the phone, but get the same issue..won't boot past the samsung screen.
Is there a file to alter to get the 7560 to accept the screen as the right one? I know the screen does work with the phone, and think the network issues I am having is because the duos feature of the rom flashed to the device.
Anybody have any ideas?

Maybe too late.
In a call, usually if you can´t finish the call is because the proximity sensor is not working and didn´t detect that you separate the phone from your face, or when you disassembly and reassembly the phone you forgot the plastic mount of the infrared detector.
Did you get the two lines working? I mean, both phones are exactly same board and rest of the spares, but s7562 uses two sim cards, in a s7560 flashed with s7562 firmware are both sim cards works?

So I have reflashed with the 7560 rom. I am back to a boot loop. I can't get to recovery..I was only able to do that in ADB, but can't boot up for adb right now.
ANy other ideas..or ways I can get into recovery. I can get the download screen using the buttons, but not the recovery.
Means reflashed the rom using a stock firmware and ODIN?

GT-N8013 Galaxy Note 10.1 problem. Many troubleshooting threads read & tried

I have a WiFi only version GT-N8013 Galaxy Note 10.1.
I purchased it at a local auction with the notation that it needed work and was stuck at the samsung galaxy note 10.1 screen.
The counter has not been set off. It shows everything as "official".
It will not connect in KIES or KIES 3 (I have other devices that will detect and connect in KIES)
It is stuck at the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 boot screen.
I can access download mode.
I cannot access the recovery program at all.
I have odin flashed it with CWM, TWRP, and stock recoveries (none of them seem to "stick")
I have flashed 3 or 4 different STOCK ROMS (Odin shows "passed" but the device usually doesn't reboot...it stays stuck at the download mode screen)
Even when it reboots after odin flashing a rom or recovery it hangs at the "Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1" screen.
when I check "nand erase" or "re-partition" when flashing a rom, recovery, or pit file it instantly fails in odin.
Again it's like it can't write to the memory.
Odin does it's thing, but it sticks at the samsung galaxy note 10.1 screen every time.
It has never gotten to thew samsung boot logo and I have never gotten it into recovery mode.
I am prepared to sell it on the bay for parts (the value of the LCD will more than cover the price I paid for it but I would like to get it going if possible.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am fairly proficient with flashing, etc.
Thanks in advance.
