Please help this newbie out!... I recently rooted my Inspire 4G with attn1's hack kit. That went smooth without issue and I have tried a variety of custom ROMs thanks to this great community, but I have noticed a random issue with booting into ClockworkMod Recovery since... I installed Rom Manager and ClockworkMod Recovery 3.0.0.6 and the problem is that sometimes I can boot into recovery and sometimes not. It only seems to work is the first time I reboot immediately after flashing ClockworkMod, then subsequent reboots the phone just boots normally. (I hold volumn down and press power.) I have also tried installing Amon's Recovery (supersonic 2.3) manually using Fastboot - it seems to install without error but when I try holding the down volume button and hitting power - phone just boots normally. So it seems I am stuck with a ClockworkMod install that does not really work with reliability.... I am lost now trying to figure out why this is happening.
Can someone that has seen similar issues provide some tips/suggestions?
TIA

I had the same problem... quit using version 3.0.0.6 and go back to the earliest version, 2.5.1.3 through All ClockworkMod Recoveries. Worked for me.

You don't have 'fast boot' enabled in settings/application? If so it will not really shut off completely and when you power it up with VOL- it will not work.
i'm also having issues getting cwm to work outside the black screen. i have tried sense/ no sense roms and none have been able to bring up cwm outside the blank screen. i am also running 3.0.0.6 or whatever it is but that has not helped my issue

did you use the Simple Root method to root your phone?
can you confirm if you have s-off and root?

Sounds like fastboot is enabled. If you turn it off you will be able to boot into recovery.
i used the simple one click. yes i have root and s-off. but i'm stuck now. can not see cwm by manually booting into hboot. or through the app and clicking boot into recovery
[Q] Clockworkmod recovery not booting up
I have my phone rooted and ready to flash a custom ROM. I want to install android revolution 4g 4.0. I read that I need to ahve CWM version 3.0.0.6 to flash a 2.3 ROM. Anyways, when i select reboot into recovery in ROM Manager, my phone reboots and shows the HTC logo but then it fades to black screen and does nothing. If i press the power button, the phone reboots normally into the OS. Does anyone know how to fix this so i can install a custom ROM?
I have this exact same issue. Although i can load roms from choosing "Install from sd card" i cannot just boot into recovery and install it from there.
I just recently bought my inspire 4g a week ago.
Mine is 2 days old. Now i cant get it to boot up because it keeps trying to boot into CWM recovery but it cant. Its and endless loop.
Mine wont even load recovery. It reboots the phone but then just fades to a black screen. I cant get back into the OS

just press power button and it will reboot your phone.
still stuck doing that too. can get the phone to reboot. but stuck at htc screen or black cwm screen. also checked sd card and is corrupted. i was thinking if i could just flash a new rom over to fix boot issue. but i need some screens to blindly walk through to flash. cwm is 3.0.0.5 if that matters. thanks. on a side note. i think i have a new cm7rc2 build on a formated sd card to try and minimize the guess work on what to click

pull your battery and just turn you phone on without going into Fastboot menu.
downloading now. will give update in a few min
also does it matter that my phone will not go past the white htc screen?

Are you saying that your phone shows the white HTC screen then fades to black?
if so, no, it doesn't matter...just press the power button to reboot your phone.
Hello guys, I recently received my refurb phone back from Bestbuy. I flashed MIUI on to it and about 2 days later I'm caught in this boot loop. After reading several threads, I called and got the battery replaced. That did not resolve my issue. I used GTG's unbrick method with KEIS downloaded. ODIN "passed" it and I got rebooted into 3e recovery (not sure where my clockworkmod recovery went, unless that went with the reset). I selected reboot now, and I'm still stuck in the boot loop with samsung popping up. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

I've now tried Heimdall, it allowed the phone to turn on. When I turned the phone off it got caught back in the boot loop again. So I retried while checking "flash bootloaders". All seemed to be well, it turned off and the battery charge indicator came on. I turned it back on and checked a few things out, I didn't download or change anything. Shut it back down and it's caught back in the boot loop again.
I've retried Odin 3 times too.
What the heck do I do now?!

after using the one click did you do a factory reset/wipe with in 3e recovery...or if you using one click, and put cwm on just do a data/factory wipe to clean all...
what i would do...because something is not cleaning...
do the one click reboot
and do the one click to get cwm....
then go into CWM
When in CWM:
1. Wipe data/factory reset.
2. Wipe Cache.
3. Go to Advance: wipe dalvik cache.
4 Go back and into Mount and Storage: format system, format data, format cache.
5. Go back and one click again to put gb back on with nothing left over...if you want to stay stock...of if you want to add custom rom
put cwm again to go to a custom rom...
may seem time consuming but sometimes it take a few strokes to clean up...
believe me i have had to do this before...
and let us know...kk
Ok guys, thanks for all of the replies.
I've tried and tried this Heimdall now 4 times, twice clicking flash bootloaders. I've gone into 3e recovery and wiped everything.
It will start and get to the setup wizard (for first time use). I click through it and I get to the main screen. I locked the screen and went to unlock it and after I "swiped" it shut down and went back into the boot loop. I retried the Heimdall again, samething happened with the setup wizard, got to the main screen, unplugged the USB cable and it shut down and back into the boot loop.
Any other ideas? I'd love to use this thing...I just got it back and haven''t been able to use it because of this.
Something similar happened to me like a week ago ..i did not know what to do so i odin back to stock about 7 times before i could reach de home screen,the first 3 times i had bootloops,3 other time i went to initial setup but as soon as i was finishing it ..bootloops,the last time i tried i was able to go into the homescreen but it had some apk left over from previous flash..so i use sgs kernel flasher to flash infusion and get back my red recovery ,then i flashed qster total wipe and flashed emencipation.....im so scared now ..i dont think i will flash anything for a while...anyway hopefully you will find the perfect combination to save your infuse good luck

How do I use SGS kernal flasher if I can't get it to turn on? From what I read it requires root and superuser?
So I retired Odin again with no luck. Retried Heimdall by selecting Flash Bootloaders, loaded to main screen, it went back into the boot loop after I locked the phone.
update #3, got into 3e recovery and it rebooted itself from there too.
If you flashed miui you must be rooted ...and yes to use shs kernel flasher you must be in the homescreen ..can you acces cwm? If so flash qster total wipe

I may be confused now, when I reflashed to stock didn't that unroot my phone? 3e recovery is all I can get to.

When you reflash to stock, it does not take out the root unless you erase the proper files yourself. The only thing you lose is the modded 3e recovery and CWM recovery.

Hey all, first time posting here,
So, I rooted my phone a few days ago and flashed Invisiblek's CM10(Running the August 10th build), using the instructions found here. Haven't had any problems at all until now. I had to reboot my phone, and now it's stuck in a boot loop. The CWMR screen is missing the background, and it won't let me boot into ODIN mode. What do I do?
Thank you for any help!

You should be able to boot into odin by taking the battery out, and then putting it back in while holding Volume Down + Home + Power at the same time. And then just flash a stock or stock rooted image in odin.
There we go. Thank you very much!
Flashed the ROM linked from here. Now I'm stuck on the 4G LTE screen. Suggestions?
Flashed it again. Still nothing. Did I brick it?
If you can get into Odin mode, I suggest flashing back go stock and starting over. If you can't get Odin to work, or even enter download mode then you might have other problems.

I am (thankfully) able to get into odin mode. Where can I get the stock ROM for the US VZW version? I haven't been able to find that anywhere, and the thread on here only has dead links.
Flashed again, still nothing. I get stuck at the 4G LTE loading screen.
Found a stock ROM and flashed back to it. Still stuck at that screen. Did I brick it?
dont forget to wipe data/cache...
it happens
you can do this by booting into stock recovery
Volume UP + Home + power.

i love you too.. lol ive been there..
So, I've got it worked out so that I have a recovery image made of a rooted version of the stock ROM. However, I SWEAR a kitten dies every time I look at the TouchPiss interface, but whenever I try to flash Invisiblek's CM10 I get stuck in a boot loop. Any ideas as to what's causing it? I've tried clearing data/cache/davlik cache before flashing the ROM, after flashing the ROM...
Would there be any way at all that I could flash it through ODIN?
So I was trying to get HyperDrive running on my phone and had flashed it a few times. I was using TWRP to flash and accidently picked Format for the wipe. Then I flashed Liquid Rom. Realizing it was more of an AOSP rom I tried flashing Hyperdrive again. Again being stupid hit the Format wipe. Then when I tried flashing the rom it flashed but when it rebooting the splash/loadscreen for the rom just continuously played. Also I can no longer access TWRP. I tried using ODIN to put a stock rom on again, but I meet the same problem of the continuously loading screen.
Help Please? I'm slowly losing it...
Take the battery out then replace it then hit the power button and home button and volume up and try to get to recovery

did it and it goes to the samsung with the unlocked lock and says on the top "booting recovery" then goes black vibrates and then reboots
Okay I finally got it working. Not sure what caused it but it seems flashing a ODIN package that supported recovery worked its magic. From there I was able to access the stock recovery and then Flashed an ODIN package containing a stock rooted rom.
My 7.0 tablet (GT-P3113) rooted at CM10.2 turned off one day and booted in recovery. I tried system reboot but it went back into recovery. Wipe of Davilk Cache and Data caused a recovery reboot. I did a system wipe and a cache wipe and reinstalled CM10.2. I got to the boot animation and "Android Upgrading Apps"... but then I got a black screen and it rebooted and got stuck at the Samsung Galaxy Tab logo and recovery stopped working. Nand Full Wipe and a reparation with the P3110 pit file fails but flashing stock firmware from SamMobile passes but it's still stuck at the logo. I tried Heimdall but I get a "Claiming Interface Failed!" error. Please, I need help! :crying:

I tried flashing stock from SamMobile (August 2012) and it said "PASS" but it was still stuck. I thought about the kernel but I couldn't find odin flashable kernel or a odin flashable bootloader (I had flashed a p3110 JB Bootloader from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2052290). Plus all the download links / mirrors at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1645295 are dead. Doing more research...
I just downloaded and flashed P3113UEBLG2_P3113XARBLG2_XAR from SamMobile and P3113UEBLG2-kernel.tar.md5 that I found and no luck. It still hangs on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 logo.
Bump, does anyone have any suggestions? Should I replace the internal SD Card?
I would try reflashing in odin after it passes hold the power button for ten seconds then when the screen flickers unpress the power then hold the vol up and the power at the same time. If it goes to the stock recovery do a factory reset then reboot. It worked for me when I had to flash the original odin 4.0.3 when comming from 4.1.1
