I just installed the ATT stock ROM rooted, and when I now go into CWM Rom Manager, and try to reboot into recovery, or flash a rom from SD card, it says I need to reboot, then says press ok to reboot, I press ok and it just does nothing. Why isn't it rebooting?
Are you actually getting into CWM? Or is it just prompting you at the HTC bootloader screen to reboot? How did you flash the stock rooted rom?

I get into CWM just fine.
I go into CWM and press install ROM from SD, and select the ROM, then it says i need to reboot to install, I press OK, and then it just goes back to the CWM list of options, so I try "Reboot into recovery" and it just does nothing, as if I hadn't pressed anything, no reboot, nada.
I had this issue before with the ATT rooted ROM... not sure what's going on.
Actually I think I misread your post. Are you even getting out of Rom manager? I always boot into recovery by holding the volume down and pressing the power button from an off state. Rom manager is kind of quirky.

would be nice to have a simple way to boot into recovery tho.
ADB
ADB reboot recovery
Hold down volume and press power from an off state. Scroll down to recovery and hit the power button.

I just restart the phone & wait one sec then use the above method or use CWM.

Coredroid you can press the power button reboot and select recovery.
Both methods mentioned above work.
You can also install quickboot from the market. You can run it, or create a widget to boot directly into recovery.
Hello XDA folks, Im a true noob at this flashing ROM stuff. I followed the [ClockWorkMod] for the SGS4G Public Beta 3 [05/12/2011] thread. To a "T" so I thought I replaced the recovery binary and rebooted the phone and put the update.zip file on the sd and once i booted into recovery all I get is the Glaxaxy S TM. 4g boot up screen is there a way to fix this any plz help.
Did you actually get into the recovery screen? It will be blue text, stock recovery.
Then from there you will click the volume down button to highlight Reinstall Packages and once you click that it will boot into CWM.
Was the update.zip file you put on your SD the CWM Beta 3 zip? Just clarifying, because I believe that is what you were saying.
Also how are you booting into recovery? There are few ways to accomplish this.
With the phone off, hold the two volume buttons (up and down) and then press the power button.
When the Galaxy S 4G screen appears you can let go of power but continue holding the volume buttons till it loads into recovery (blue text).
I accidentally did.that yesterday I just reflashed stock rom with odin and it got fixed

The phone is stuck on the screen when it first boots up and won't go any where. Will odin 1.7 work.
Is it possible to boot into CWM recovery by using the physical buttons? Ive tried up+down+power but only get the !!!! warning !!!!. I can boot into CWM recovery from inside the OS but why cant I boot with the buttons like my nexus one?
Unplug the USB, power on with volume buttons and release power button.

Thanks, I think I was putting it into Download Mode
When holding this combination on booting it used to load EXT4 Recovery but now it doesnt, the phone just boots as normal, anyway to fix this ? :good:
hm, first time i know this...Did you disable fastboot?
Yep thats disabled, even from a battery pull it doesnt do it, very confusing
Just tried reflashing the recovery image, no luck, still doesnt boot into it, I have to hold down volume down & power then choose recovery. Only way it works (or via Phone menu choosing reboot - recovery)
Do you have a custom rom running? If so sometimes developers leave an option to reboot into recovery whit holding the power button and choose reboot > recovery..
Either way try to install cwm and try rebooting into that if it works let me know..
Swyped From My Sensation.
Im using PkMn Charmeleon 5.1, maybe it was disabled then? but there is the option of power button and choose reboot > recovery
Usually if you remove the battery and place it back then volume down and power you will then boot to recovery. At first itooks like regular recovery but once you press recovery it will send you to 4ext. I've had to access my recovery this way when I've been in a bind. It works. No worries you do this and it will.boot you to recovery menu. Use the volume keys to scroll down to recovery and the power key to accept then it will send you to 4 ext. Hope this helps! You can always do this in a pinch too if your stuck and some Rom is not behaving correctly or your in trouble.
This is the times I boot this way. I'm certain it will work for you. Best of luck!

Yeah going through the bootloader is the only option I have other than actually booting into the rom first , just odd it doesn't work when holding volume up and power, never mind. Thanks guys.

Hey guys I have a recovery problem. I rooted my O1 and then tried to install cwm using app from market but when I try to enter recovery it starts fastboot Hopefully normal mode works and the phone boots into rom. So I tried reviving it using this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1088046 but still have the same problem. So what do I have to do ????
I have another question: I found in settings of rom manager erase recovery prior to flashing an.I didn't tick it so do I have to tick it???

You dont need to tick Erase Recovery.
Press HOME + VOLUME then power.. keep holding them til you see recovery!!
If it doesnt work.. flash recovery again using Rom Manager.
Also try to get into recovery through rom manager if nothing works!!
I'm having the same issue. Just flashed CWM with Rom Manager today. It worked a few times, but now it's not. I cannot select any option on the list. The back and search buttons blank out the screen except for the rom manager logo (also the background) and if I hit them again, the "cursor" has moved up or down, depending. If I press the power button, it also blanks out the screen except for the logo, but when I press it again, the cursor goes back to the top. The only button that doesn't make it blank out is volume down. Home and Menu buttons do nothing.
Also, doesn't matter if I load recovery manually or through RM.
UPDATE: Managed to get it stuck on the RM Logo. Nothing does anything.
UPDATE: Flashed VM670 Recovery with FlashImageGUI and am getting similar results. Now both volume keys allow for selecting, home and menu allow for selecting with the cleared screen, and power, back, and search do nothing but move the cursor to the top. If I hold the power button, though, the screen flashes and the cursor doesn't move.
I had same problem on my vm670 try using camera button to select . Worked for me

Don't forget that the camera button is a 2-step button. You have to press it all the way in for it to register in CWM. Also, I'm running CWM 3.2.0.1 and the Volume buttons work for me just fine.
And for the one who couldn't get into recovery, have you tried booting normally, connecting it to your computer, and running this at a command prompt?
adb reboot recovery
