thnx for your reply how to flash it from CWM recovery mode ?

i believe for your phone you must shutdown your phone and after its closed press vol up + call key (and tap power button to turn on the phone)
That should take you to 'bootloader'. There should be a 'recovery' option there, that will take you to CWM recovery. The CWM recovery should have a black background with orange text(it could also be blue text).
If so, then you're in CWM recovery. Just go to 'Install from sdcard' and 'choose from sdcard' (or something like that), then choose the CM7 .zip file.
Make sure you make a backup before flashing the ROM. Backup can also be made from CWM recovery, its one of the options

Make sure you have CWM recovery flashed on your phone.
You can be sure by going into ROM Manager and in the first option 'Flash CWM recovery', it should be written 'Current Recovery: ClockworkMod x.x.x.x'
If thats not written, then you need to click the first option and flash the CWM recovery (u'll need a internet connection for that)

IT IS not going to recovery mode it 1st hang to ideos screen then rebot to simple mode

for info on how to use CWM recovery and stuff - CLICK HERE

still it is not showing recovery mode

Like codenameunknown said, but try this also:
Info
Getting into recovery
while the device is off...
Press and hold the Volume Up + Call Key
TAP << not hold >> the power button
Don't let go of the Volume Up + Call Key until device light up
Generally it'll always end up in recovery if the Volume Up + Call Keys are held down when the device powers. Doesn't matter how it powered on, whether via power button, usb cable, reboot etc.
while the device is on...
via Rom Manager

Does ROM Manager say 'Current Recovery:'
if so, the you have CWM recovery on your phone.
The link i provided says that

dude i knw after install rom manager and flash clockworkmod recovery i cant go to recovery mode before that it was all good

the link i provided says that your phone IS supported.
Is your version of ROM Manager updated? (im not sure if that will help, but just try, it wont hurt!)
If it still doesnt want to show, you can manually flash the CWM recovery onto your phone. I would tell you how, but im not familiar with your phone.
EDIT:
i searched for a manual way for you to flash it, and ended up with this thread... CLICK HERE . Although this thread also says that the phone is fully supported in ROM Manager now. But it also give you a way to manually flash it

if you're running miui, try posting in the miui Q/A, you might get more help.
Sounds odd that you would lose recovery like that.
idk..you can try downloading "quickboot" from the market.
it has some extended power menu options, including recovery.
if you lost recovery somehow, odin or heimdall will be your friend.
see my sigs

Its common many have lost the recovery including ME when flashed MIUI, check the OP of the MIUI thread by boost there is how you can get the recovery back.

1: Download sgs kernel flasher
2: Download CWM community kernel
3: Flash kernel via sgs kernel flasher "unchecked the reboot button" when done flashing turn phone of "SHUTDOWN"
4: 3 finger until the Samsung logo pops up keep holding the buttons the screen will go black then Samsung logo will come up, let go of the power button and keep hold the volume up and down buttons "For about 20 seconds" then let go it should boot into Red CWM after a few seconds.
5: Go to install zip from SD card go all the way down and run update.zip it will boot back into RED CWM run update.zip again and it should now boot into GREEN CWM
6: From here Re-Flash MIUI "New Release would be smart", Wipe Fact,Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik, Flash, reboot at sign of Samsung logo pull battery, 3 finger into blue recovery and flash again.
7: Presto you should be set and have recovery back.

Not included. It seems to be removed from the CWM recovery
I've experienced this as well, and what I can recommend is just try it again, only press the vol down and home button first before pressing the power button. to make sure less errors are had press from the lowest portion of the vol down button.

I remember that the kernel must be flashed with odin or i'm wrong??

Yep it must be flashed with odin, but you have to enter in download mode to do that via pc
another alternative is flash the kernel via odin mobile, I've done it several times and have not had any problems

try to enter download mode thorugh cwm icon
or if you have cyagnomed rom
then if you want to enter ur mode here the steps
connect your device with your pc
turn of ur mobile
take off battery
press down volume + home + power button and then enter the battery while you are pressing ..

[Q] How to remove CWM

I've looked through the searches but I couldnt really find the answer.
I've rooted and unlocked my HOX but I can't boot into bootloader through volume donw + power.
I have CleanROM 4.0 flashed and the 4.1 version just came out. It says to use TWRP so I will.
How do I go about removing CWM that I installed through the one-click tutorial?
I want to put TWRP after that.
Thanks a lot XDA.

Make sure fastboot I the power settings is u checked then you can boot into bootloader with the button combo. And the easiest way to install twrp would be to use Goo Manager from the market, it will install it for you.

Thanks for the response, I appreciate it.
I still can't boot into bootloader with both fastboot checked and unchecked. However I did install TWRP through Goomanager. By doing that does it mean CWM is gone?
It freaks my out that I can't use my H-boot. :crying:

You can use your bootloader, you need to make sure fastboot is unchecked, and when you hold power + vol down make sure you let go of power and keep vol down til in bootloader, and yes cwn is gone you can only have one recovery.
Just keep trying you will get it.

Assuming you still have CleanROM installed... try this:
1. Boot into the Android OS as usual
2. Press and hold the power key; this will bring up the "Phone Options" dialog
3. Select "Restart"; this will bring up a second "Phone Options" dialog
4. Choose "Recovery"
The phone will reboot into recovery. No need to press and hold volume down or anything like that. See attached screenshots.

I was just going to say, use the Advanced Power Menu way, which is what I do almost every time to get into Recovery.
If you do the power+vol down way, make sure the phone is fully powered off (with fast boot unchecked in power settings). Hold down vol down, then depress the power button for a few seconds, release power, but keep holding vol down until you get into Hboot.
Might just be (hopefully) pilot error. If neither method works, you have some other issue.

Can't access Odin, frozen fastboot

Hi,
I tried to restore my Nexus S (european, GT-I9023) which has a broken power button before sending it to Samsung for repair.
I just screwed my ROM flash using Clockworkmod and now my phone only shows a beautiful Google screen.
When I try to use fastboot screen (using vol+/vol-) nothing moves, and even if it moved I wouldn't be able select any option as my power button is broken. I can't also access Odin (vol+ and vol- pressed when the phone is off) as I can't turn off my phone.
What can I do to flash my rom? May I send it to Samsung anyway?
Thanks for your answers!

Switch off. Press Volume Up and plug in the charging cable. Now, see if you tackle with the Fastboot mode.

He might not be able to. When the power button breaks, it stays in a "on" state and that messed up fastboot as it doesn't let you scroll or initialize properly.

If your rom starts booting (you see a quick flash after initial Google logo) you might be able to ADB from there (while it's not booting and the rom logo is showing, I know weird but often works). Check it out.
Edit: Oh and if you get adb access, then what you want to do is "reboot recovery" to reboot to recovery, and then wipe/flash a rom and whatnot.

You are absolutely right. The phone thinks that the power button is pressed and doesn't let us move up and down using the volume keys.
Also, even if I get adb access after the Google logo, how do I use fastboot mode? I actually wanted to flash a recovery as my Power button doesn't work even in the recovery. Moreover, I can boot into recovery without adb, from inside the rom power menu.
So adb doesn't help here

What recovery do you currently have? All custom recoveries enable you to scroll with menu and home key, go back with the back key and select with the search key. So if you can get adb while it's "not booting" and reboot to your custom recovery, then you can navigate, mount usb and transfer a rom if needed or flash one that is on your phone.
Edit: Also, I was under the impression you couldn't boot your ROM. If you can, what is it exactly that you are trying to do??

From the same thread you can simply download any of these (highly suggest ClockworkMod (CWM) 5.8.0.2 Touch, one if not the most reliable) and flash them from within your current CWM.

Ok let's get this right
What is your goal? Flash a different recovery? Then you can flash a recovery from within something such as ROM Manager if your rom still boots.

Yes sir, my goal is to flash a touch based recovery just so that I can flash new ROMs and kernels without the help of the power button.
Koushik charges for in-app flashing of CWM Touch which is otherwise free. So that's the main issue here. I guess I'll have to live with it

Ok.
You can use this Flash Image GUI to flash a recovery of your choice from within Android then:

It's free. Make sure to download the right recovery for your device and select recovery image in Flash Image GUI.

You sir, are my hero... Many thanks for this :highfive: :victory:

If you are flashing a touch version of CWM recovery, I highly suggest v6.0.1.0. The later version (up to 6.0.2.5) have a bug that will make you unable to mount the SD card within the recovery. Otherwise TWRP is very interesting, but backups made with CWM are not compatible with TWRP.

Thanks, I'll try TWRP this time
