Guys, i hope you can help again.
im rooted, running ics by entropy, but i have this annoying issue.
Every time i go to cwm to flash something like beats audio or another modem, i cant get back to my main rom, just keeps rebooting into cwm and even if i select reboot now, just boots again into cwm.
Its annoying because every time i want to install something i have to reinstall the rom from zero.
maybe im missing an application or something.
hope you can help me out.
I too have had this happen, but only when I use adb to reboot into CWM recovery by sending an "adb reboot recovery" to get into recovery. I can make that happen every time, so when running this ICS kernel / recovery, I'm careful to only use the extended power menu or the phone buttons to get to recovery.
Once it happens, the only way to fix in this situation is to re-flash the rom.
Just curious, how are you going into recovery?

i select ''go to recovery'' in the CWM app, maybe thats the issue.

Probably related to the same bug in that particular recovery. I may flash CM9 in a little bit to see if I can reproduce that by going from the Rom Manager app. There is an option to get to recovery in the power menu. I'm almost certain that if you use that and/or the phone buttons, you won't have the same issue.
EDIT: I just flashed CM9 to test this, and I can't get the issue to happen when going to recovery from the Rom Manager app. Seems to work like it's supposed to from there. As soon as I issue an "adb reboot recovery", though, the same thing happens: the phone will only reboot to recovery from then on and has to be re-flashed to get to a rom. To be safe with this recovery, though, I'd still suggest only using the option in the power menu or the phone buttons.
YES! I HAVE THE SAME DAMN ISSUE!
Always happens. I have to Odin back to stock then reflash CM9. I don't know how it works from power button but using Rom Manager I get stuck. I "reboot system" now and it gets to Galaxy S/CyanogenMod screen and right back into recovery.
Simple question....when this happens..have you tried taking battery out and wait abt 30=40 to 60 seconds then replace batt and just restart? This happened to me and i did this 2x and bam the rom booted up....fine

I am having issues with rooting via kernal. I tried to flash a kernal with Cwm but it would just hang. Pulled battery and tried again. It may be a problem with Cwm? Could someone tell me what color latest cwm should be and is it supposed to have a back up option on it? Tia!

latest CWM is the orange 4.0.1.4 version... if you're having problems rooting just flash a superuser.zip, search the dev section for it as myself and others have posted it recently

Thanks. When. I flashed cwm yesterday it said passed but I now have a blue recovery and it says something about samsung recovery which I am assuming is the stock recovery. I will try to reflash again when I am near a windows machine.

ok well this should do it:
1. power off phone and take out battery
2. open odin on your pc
3. hold volume down button and connect to pc, should show download mode and should show up in odin, let go of volume down
4. put battery back in, uncheck 'auto reboot' and put the CWM file in PDA
5. push start and let odin flash the file, should only take a few seconds
6. unplug phone from pc, then remove battery
7. put battery back in
8. hold volume up, home button and power button until you see 'Samsung' then let go of power button
that should get you into CWM and you can work from there, since you don't have a custom kernel to make CWM 'stick' on your phone do not let the phone boot up or you will need to odin CWM again... you basically get one try with it
That must be my problem i will try

Hello,
I just installed Sky ICS RC7.4Speed and there is no notification bar for me? The top is just blank, doesn't even show my battery life. Anybody have this problem before and have a fix for it? I tried looking and couldn't find anybody with this problem for this rom or even this phone? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I had this same issue with this ROM. To resolve the issue I installed the main ROM first (6.75 speed/stock) then rebooted out of CWM recovery. After allowing he phone to settle for 5 min or so I then booted back into CWM Recovery and installed the 7.4 update.
Now all is well... hope this helps.

+1...that's the only way to flash correctly according to Sean.

Don't flash the Full wipe (6.75 or 7.0speed) and the update nonwipe in the same session. INstall the Full wipe first, restart cwm let your phone settle down then restart in cwm and install the update
I was trying to flash a eaglebloods ginger bread on my g2x... however every time the phone boots up it immediately goes into Clockworkmod Recovery and doesn't boot the OS. I've tried formatting and reinstalling the rom but i still get the same problem of the phone going directly into recovery instead of booting. Please help!
have you ever dropped the phone? Maybe the hardware button (volume down is stuck)is failing? I've never heard it automatically rebooting to recovery unless selected from the recovery to do so.
no i haven't dropped it or anything... the last thing i remember doing to the phone before it started doing this was clearing the cache and davilk cache...then it goes immediately to recovery...i just got the phone too, i hope i didn't brick it or something
you didn't "brick" it look up what that means in Urban Dictionary, before using it. If anything reflash the recovery with NVflasher or try a different rom.
tried reflashing clockwork and still have the same problem
tried a new rom? maybe use the clean up tool from in the dev section.
Re nvflash cwm. This has happened to me several times. Do not try to flash anything else until you nvflash cwm again. If that don't work use the rom for recovery in nvflash that is in the dev section.

Try using this NVFLASH technique. It should restore your ROM & recovery to stock.

But the question is did any part of the flash fail. Just like flashing a rom. You can get bad flashes. Happens to me lots of times.
Bottom line flash the rom for recovery through nvflash and it will solve it. I've softbricked myself wayyyy too many times and got it back the same way. If it turns on and shows any graphic its not hard bricked.

Make sure when you flash you wipe everything too, not just cache and dalvik cache

Ughhh... I am in recovery and after a restore , I go to reboot system and instead of going to rom it brings me back to recovery again. I can't get out of recovery. What can I do????
Thanks...
i'm having the same problem right now too.
Boot into download mode and hit the volume down to cancel (reboot)
Should work for now until there is a patch.

you can also use Odin to flash an old version.
Just remember to either use odin to flash an old version or find one through ROM Manager, so you don't get stuck in a boot loop again next time you restart the phone.
I am having the same problem. Booting to download mode, selecting yes then pulling the battery got me out of it. Very frustrating to say the least.
Is there a problem with the new CWM touch that just came out I wonder?

Sounds like you forgot to Un-Check Repartition in odin. Once you select the image you want to flash, it will auto-check the Repartition box (even if you unchecked it before). I would just try again and make sure its not checked before beginning
I made sure to uncheck repartition. I had a friend who was somewhat knowledgeable of this type stuff and he told me to do that... Is there anything else I could do?

No. NO. It's not a brick or anything. I recommend you flash ICS. It's much faster and better, also because it has it's own recovery. After you flash ICS you have to load up its recovery, hold the volume and the power button and wipe data and cache. It should boot flawlessly. If you do want gingerbread install clockwork mod and wipe cache and data. It should boot up.
