Ok I have the motorola Triumph. *I changed the recovery.img flie.
When I get into clockwork recovery mod and chose anything like
instalzip from sd card it brings the rom manger image up and just sits
there and doesn't allow anything to happen. *I would like to put the
miui rom on my phone so I am not sure what to do cause it's looping.
It sounds like you are pressing the wrong button to select. Check what the controls are for your version.
Most likely using the wrong controls. Hitting the menu key is select for most current builds of CWM on the Triumph, if not all. If the options are disappearing, it sounds like you're hitting the power/lock button instead of the menu capacitive key.

hi all,
heres the deal. i rooted my defy with superoneclick, it worked great.
heres the problem and what i think is the cause but i need a solution!
PROBLEM: i switch my phone on, it starts normally
motoblur screen
then
T mobile screen
then
the normal swipe unlock
i ulnlock it fine but as soon as i do the wallpaper dissapears/goes black. i cannot access any apps. none of the buttons work (menu,home,return/back,search) but the info bar/ menur bar thing at the top that swipes down works fine and what ever is in it works fine i.e when i plug into usb im able to choose portal and tools and those other 3. but when i just leave my phone on lock then press power button/activate unlock screen. it will show normal background with time and everything looks normal.
the CAUSE ( i think )
i was installing apps and deleting motoblur stuff. but it it was one of those two, i isntalled an app and i deleted a file at the same sort of time. the app installed was some startup app killer or a firewall of some type. or it could have been that i deleted an apk file that had a real short name i think, like blur.apk
PLEASE HELP ME. I need a solution FAST its my first smartphone ever and i paid alot for it. if you need my phone info it was
moto defy android 2.1 uk version but then rooted with super one click
THANK YOU IN ADVANCED FOR ANY HELP
ps i have installed rsd lite and it is recognised by it but thats as far as i know what to do...
Did you get my PM lol saw you in the other forum.
try to do a factory reset on the phone from the recovery menu. if anything, reflash your rom or pick a new one. I had this issue with a few mods/roms/kernals aswel.

i sent you a pm too. thanks for being so quick to reply. but i dont know how to do that stuff im a noob this is my first androidsmartphone ever but im a very quick learner
all good. For my phone. ( droid incred.) when the phone is off i hold power and the volume up key. then i select recovery using the volume keys. I know the buttons to push are different on some phones so you might neeed to use google to find the right 2 keys to hold down while booting
i currently have it in boot loader mode, it says battery ok, ok to program, transfer mode, usb. and thats all it says. no recovery options at all
Ok, found this in another forum. this is how to get into your boot menu i guess:
The boot menu happends when you press the volume down key and the power button.
When it takes you to the triangle part press the volume up key and the power button this action brings up another menu on which you can reboot and other settings.
the first triangle with exclamation mark inside it with the lil andorid man comes up, but the second menu doesnt, im holding vol down and power to get up this image, the to get second one you say to do vol up and power...i tried it, held it for a while but still no joy
ok, give this a try
"If you swipe the bottom right corner when you see the triangle you will get a menu. From there you can reboot or reset"
Still looking for more
nope sorry still dont work. i really appreciate you spending your time doing this it realy does mean ALOT. thank you i hope the solution isnt far away!
Ok, this is from the t-moble forms:
One suggestion...
Pull the battery.
Hold down the volume down key and press the power button.
Continue to hold the volume down key until you seem something happening on the screen.
This should boot you into recovery mode, you'll see a little green Android stood next to a yellow warning sign.
Press the bottom-right corner of the screen, a menu should appear.
Use the volume keys to scroll up and down.
Scroll to 'Wipe DATA/factory reset' and press 'ok' (bottom-left of screen) - you may need to re-confirm in a sub-menu.
After the wipe completes, scroll to the 'reboot' option and press 'ok'.
If you do that, you completely wipe the handset, same as if you performed a full factory reset on the handset.
Obviously, this will get rid of anything you have on the handset but if your only other option is an exchange, you've nothing to lose really.

it says it worked that it did the reset properly but still same original problem.
it says first line....
E:cant open /cache/recovery/command
that is in the recovery mode / reset
do you have a rom that you can try to flash? any rom really just to rule out a rom issue. you can try to find a rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=855&order=desc&page=1
im going to give it a try ill get back to you to let you know how its going within the next 20 mins, thanks for all your help
here is an option for a factory reset.
1. Turn the power off on the Defy (if it's frozen, pull the battery out & reinsert it)
2.Hold the volume down button
3. Press and hold the button until the device turns on
4. You'll get a menu that allows FASTBOOK, RECOVERY, CLEAR STORAGE, and SIMLOCK
5. Select CLEAR STORAGE, by pressing the Volume Down button
6. Press and release the Power
7. Now just confirm your decision Volume Up for YES, Volume Down for NO
it says on rsd lite . fail flashing process. unable to retrieve initialization values from INI (0x07029);phone connected
isnt working for some reason
that menu...mine says
from top to bottom
Android system recovery <2a>
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
(then at the bottomit says...)
E:cant open /cache/recovery/command.
but yet it will still go through the process like it is working but it doesnt fix it
Did you try the top option. Android system recovery <2a>
i wish i had that same phone to replicate this problem
im sorry i didnt write it clear enough the top android recovery thing isnt an option, its like the header/title for the program or page its written in red. the options to choose are in blue
Well I wanted to make a nandoird backup....BUT when I boot into clockwork recovery, the volume up and down, move the option, but the power button makes the screen black out and nothing happens.
If I press the power button again, it turns the screen back on at the main menu.
Tried double pressing, etc.
I tried all the other face buttons, but no joy.
Am I missing something?
Thanks
I've had the same issue at times and getting to clockwork recovery through rom manager fixed my issues. How are you trying to access CWM? Powering off first then power button and volume down key? Try vice versa and see if that fixes your issue. Let us know...

I was rebooting into recovery through the rom manager into recovery.
When I boot up through power and VOL DWN I get a whole different looking interface...the mech interface and it tries to do an update.
UPDATE:
THEN I realized that the update file is in the sdcard dir....
I am so dumb....
I deleted it, then it went into the mech, interface, did recovery, then it went into the orange clockworkmod menu, then I could backup....
Thanks for the response!
Yep that'll do it! Remove that puppy!
Hello all! I was able to get CWR 4 installed on my Augen Gentouch tablet. I booted into it, but then realized I can't move up and down since I have no volume buttons on the device.
None of the buttons do anything, except the power button, which selects the first option (Which is "Shut down" or "Reboot" or the likes)
Any ideas? Is there a magic way to remap keys for this?
I can't even get the stock recovery program back on because CWR 4 has me stuck
Thanks for any help
Same issue!
Got a 8 tablet with samsung S5PV210 ARM A8 Cortex
Three buttons on the front, no volume buttons, so pressing the down volume button and power to get into recovery is not poss? Rom Manager just boots to stock rom even if i press " install rom from SD"
Anyone?
We cant be the only ones who got one of these lol
Cheers

I am using a version of Clockwork Recovery on my Photon that takes over if you have the charge plugged in when you turn it on.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
would love to know the answer to this myself.
Solved!
But now i need a good rom?
2. Update your Tablet, using the recovery console
1.- shut down the Tablet
2.- Press the "HOME" Button, and then press the "Power" button TOGETHER about 2-3 seconds.
3.- The android system will start, and stop at a page with a small android robot, press the "power" Button about 2 seconds, and then press the "HOME" together.
4.- The screen will show the below 4 choices:
1) Reboot system panel now
2) apply update from /sdcard
3) wipe data/factory reset
4) wipe cache partition
Select option 2 by holding down the "Power" button, once complete reboot!

Yeah, that's coming. It has buttons on the screen for navigating the menus. I'm not sure if it's gonna be device-specific though, or if it will be generic enough to include regardless of your device.
Is there anyway to enter clockworkmod recovery without having to use EZ recovery app? I thought when I enter recover by holding the volume up, menu, and power it's suppose to automatically boot into clockwork? Or am I wrong? I went away from Android for a while and just got a Galaxy S3 and rooted it. Any help is great. Thanks!
No you are right. If clockwork is installed that's a way to get into it. The button combo. But the trick is...hold them for a second until the phone vibrates and you see like three or four blue words in a tiny font at the top of the screen. When you see them. Release the keys. If you keep holding them you go past recovery and into full boot.

Yes the blue text on the upper left of screen is when its safe to release vol up and home. Otherwise you can just hold them until you are in recovery. If neither works then something isnt right. You do not need an app to get into recovery.

Its the home button you want to hold, not menu. And you need to hold the button combo from a powered off state, or catch it right when you do a reboot.
Hello I accidentally put a pattern password while being half asleep. Well that doesn't matter but I want to remove it. I tried going into Clockwork Recovery v6.0.2.7. I get in to the menu and I use the volume rocker to go up or down. Also the menu/home button also goes up and down. The power button doesn't select neither does the search button. The back button doesn't do anything.
I am using LG Optimus T (p509) and using Cyanogen Mod 10.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2096721
I have been trying to either figure out the password and trying to use Recovery.
Please and Thank you.
I would give this a shot:

Well the thing is I stupidly tried to use KPZ and put it back to normal but its always giving me Upgrade Error 500. If I pull of the battery and turn it out like normal it will go to the Tmobile Stick Together logo then reboot back into the Clockwork Recovery v6.0.2.7

Well the thing is that was the first thing I tried but I guess the volume rocker is to go through the menu. Also, the menu and home button also can be used to go through the menu. Only two buttons left is the search and the power button. Neither can be used to select/enter.
