CWM Recovery 5.8.1.3 Freezing?? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

So I flashe's CWM Recovery 5.8.1.3 on my Skyrocket Gingerbread Stock ROM and every single time I try to.boot into it, it just completely freezes and I cannot scroll to my SD-Card to install Superuser. Any ideas as to what is going on or what I can do?

Don't use the volume keys in that recovery. Strictly touch. If in were you I would just use 6.0.1.0

Having trouble installing roms

What color is your CWM screen? Have you installed 3e, hit "reinstall packages" twice to get into green CWM?
It's blue I think.

What exactly were you trying to put on the phone? You don't need a cpu to flash a rom. Where you trying to flash CWM?
I flashed a rom but phone didn't boot up so I'm trying to unbrick my wife's phone now

I know that if I can flash cwm through the tool I will be ok but can't get my phone into sw mode or download I will try ur suggestions and get back to you thanks
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
It's power & vol down to get into CWM once you've flashed it. Follow the thread given by Waldano. This must be done before flashing any roms.
Is there a download mode for the g2x or is the volume buttons together the only way? Thanks for all the help guys I will post again a little later with a update

If you have already NVFlashed Clockwork Mod Recovery on the phone, you don't need a PC to flash again.
Download a good rom to a microSD card, throw it in the phone, use Clockwork to flash the zip from SD.
Or if you were smart, you would have performed a Nandroid Backup in Recovery before attempting to flash, in which you can just restore your backup and be back where you were at... which then you could download a different rom so the SD card USING the phone and attempt to reflash.
I messed up huge I flashed through rom manager that's why I can't get into cwm the phone wont do anything all it will do is go to the LG screen and the one with the little android Guy and a folder

Recovery

Am I correct in assuming that you can only have one recovery program installed at a time? Also does the original native recovery remain on the phone as that is what you'd want with a soft brick?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
That's right. Only one recovery at a time. And it replaces the stock recovery.

So you can get to it, whether it's cwm or twrp etc, with the buttons like during a boot failure?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Yes. You can boot into any recovery that's currently installed using the button combo.

[Q] question about TWRP and CWMR

If I installed both, what would happen when I reboot into recovery? Will I get to choose one over the other upon booting?
You can't install both
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
Whichever you installed last would be your recovery.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
Thank you guys. These two recoveries are both great and similar. But I like to use CWM especially the new touch version.
Twrp is better than classic cwm in my opinion, didn't try the touch one

CWMR Question Galaxy Tab 2 PT3113

After I installed ClockworkMod Recovery, Everything I exit out of it I'm asked if I want to disable recovery flash because "ROM may flash stock recovery on boot". What do I do?
Sent from my SCH-I605 using XDA Free mobile app
Select yes before booting.
I really recommend you use philz's touch recovery by the way. You won't get that notification anymore and its much more functional than standard cwm
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
Ok thanks for your help.
I installed Philz CWM, How do I install a rom to the external with it? Thanks.
