[Q] what recovery is use

for my phone i try the CWM from rom manager, but my recovery have the samsung recovery ? @[email protected]? and i has seen other talking bout cwd dont work and then im not sure but something call kG4 ??
i rooted my phone with the superone click but i cant get a recovery so i can flash ROMs on my phone ??

I recommend you to ODIN one of the customize ROM or KERNEL in the development session first to get the CWM ( most of the case it was integrated to the ROM or kernel) then you can flash any ROM you want.

Or use the cwm final thread in the dev section.

Look at the Bible there is links for recovery on there.
There is one for froyo and one for GB.

Great advice. Even better than the 75129 posts about how ROM manager does not work with this phone.

Um... no. ROM manager does not work as had been stated over and over and over and over and over and over... Yet every day people use it and wonder what went wrong.

If people want to use ROM manager after being warned then
don't come back asking what is wrong with your phone.

Yikes dude. Just follow the many guides on the Bible... It can't get any easier than those guides. Use Odin to get CWM via Dr. Honks kernel.

"no infuse option"? Where are you looking for? Are you using ROM Manager?

Because officially rom manager does not support the Infuse...
There is a thread in the dev section on how to install cwm.... You need to flash the I9000 version, but you must modify recovery first. Or you could just flash the community kernel with voodoo and cwm.

Rom manager?

How do you flash CWM without rom manager? Its not letting me use rom manager so is there another app to use?

Again, do not use ROM Manager. It does not work correctly with our phones. Whatever you need to flash, use ODIN or CWM. I'm not sure about UOT Kitchen though.

you flash UOT files though CWM, it works fine and I've done it many times.
Don't use Rom Manager.

So im using one of Dr honks's kernals. The 2.3.3 one with the messed up rainbow screen when you boot it up. Ive already had 4 problems with it and ive been running this for 3 days. Plus I cant even get into recovery. Is there a stable 2.3.4 or 2.3.5 kernal that has recovery?

All of them besides anythin 2.3.3. Stay away from anything of that build.

sounds like you don't have the correct boot loaders on your phone, and you didn't flash gingerbread properly the first time around.
follow FB's directions to get your phone on a correct gingerbread build with the right boot loaders:

keep it tho honestly because this is the only real device that sucks with rom manger and u wont always have that phone

Raver has a great app on his ROM for CWM access..it's called Quick Boot..get it from market. Remember with GB I'd use kj1 from drhonk. Only use Bali 2.3 with froyo.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

Do you guys think that if I do a 2.3.5 kernal by Dr Honks that I wont have to factory rest my phone? Cuz I finally have my phone all organized and the way I like it most and that take forever.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

If u do that through CWM recovery then no u won't.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

Kj1 would work best.. DL it through the phone if u want, move it to sd from the download folder (could be tapatalk folder depending on which browser u use) and flash through CWM . Should be pain free.

holy balls, i cant believe the lack of reading and comprehension in this thread.
FFS, when you are told WHICH one to flash, just do it!
And to the guy telling him it should show up as ATT Galaxy S 2, YOU HAVE EITHER AN I777 or a 9100....Stay out of topics in the skyrocket forum that you have ZERO knowledge of. you cant even use ROM manager with the i777.... SMH

As other have said you have to look for the t-mobile galaxy s2. It should install CWM version 5.0.2.7. This verion does have some problems with the skyrocket for example inside the rom manager program and choosing install rom from sd card will not work (it says uncompatible script), but ionce you go into recovery mode and choose the .zip yourself it will work. I hope this helps.

As an aside though, I can choose "Install ROM from SD Card" through both manual CWM Recovery and ROM Manager

Lol this thread is crazy. Lol wow

I'm a rooting/Android noob, and I have a Skyrocket. As others have said, I picked the Samsung T-Mobile GalaxyS2, and it worked great for me. I was able to root from an SD card (booted into Recovery mode and did it from there) without any problems.

so what happened? whats the outcome?

Outcome for what?

Install this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=neldar.sgs.kernel.flasher
Flash this kernel using the app:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1828171
You will have CWM installed after that.
EDIT:
Make sure you're on gingerbread before this (version 2.3.x) since it won't work on Froyo (2.2.x)
