[Q] Clockworkmod Recovery updated, can't enter recovery mode

Hi, I've searched and can't find an answer. I've managed to root my Infuse and got Infinitum rom installed. It was working great until just this evening when Clockworkmod updated (sorry, I can't find the version number). It went into a boot loop. It took me a bit, but I managed to get it out of the boot loop and back to stock, now it's rooted again with Infinitum running again.
I'm trying to get back to a recovery point that I do have on the phone, but I can't get the phone to boot to recovery no matter what I do. When I try using the vol and power buttons combination or from ROM manager I get the same thing. It goes past the stock Samsung logo into the Galaxy S/Cyanogen(mod) logo, but freezes there.
I can, of course, take the loss of my setup and redo everything manually. I would really prefer to be able to get that backup back. I'm also concerned should I ever need to get into recovery mode for any other reason. My guess is that I need to downgrade the CWM version, but I haven't been able to find how to do it.
Can anyone give me any help? Please let me know if there's info that I can give that would be useful...I'm noobie, I know!

There are many layers to your questions.
You may need to read a bit more to get a better understanding.
Here is two points I can offer that may be helpful.
1. Don't use ROM Manager for the Infuse.
2. To downgrade a cwm version, you will need to flash a GB or FROYO kernel in download mode via heimdall or odin. You can also use any one of the return to stock that is flashed in download mode also.
If you think you lost recovery, try flashing the kernel for the rom you were running in cwm, if you can get back into cwm again.

I believe you about the ROM Manager. Too late, unfortunately. I'll take it off.
I had the phone back to stock with Odin. I went through all of the steps that I went through to first root it and install Infinitum. I had red cwm at the time. I just can't seem to get into it now. I don't think I lost it, I'm just unsure of how to get to it, since it freezes at the cm startup. I can just power off from there after I give up waiting, and it will boot to ICS normally when I power it on normally. I have Titanium Backup Pro, and it can access the nandroid backup that I have to get the apps and data. I was just hoping to recover the whole setup. I had an issue last weekend (oops to me) when I tried to install a JB rom where it went into a boot loop. I recovered everything after backtracking like I did tonight, and was hoping to be able to do the same. Is there any hope, do you think, if I go back and return to stock and start over from the beginning again? If not, I'll just suffer and redo the whole thing.
By the way, I really appreciate you answering. I've been lurking for a few weeks, and realize that you know a LOT about these phones.

Okay, so next question. I've been reading and searching and reading some more. I can get the phone back to stock and work up again, but I still reach a point where it will freeze on the Samsung/CM startup screen. In reading the Infinitum Project thread, I found this (yes, it's pretty easy to find):
"Recovery/CWM messed up?
Here is how to fix it...
1) Download uclb3 heimdal by qkster
2) open the program
3) put phone in download mode
4) click flash (leave program open when finished DO NOT CLOSE)
5) after it finishes and your phone reboots, put the phone back in download mode and reconnect to PC
6) click flash bootloader on the heimdal program you left running
7) flash, let reboot and your recovery problems should be gone"
I used that to get back to stock before...doesn't that remove the root? Do I have to go through all that, then the bootloaders, and then go back and root all over again to get back to a working CWM? I'm sorry to ask so many questions, but it seems that I've done most of this already, though I admit to not doing the flash for the bootloader. I'm just unclear since it says "your recovery problems should be gone" at the end of that, like I have to do nothing more.

That does remove root access. However, root isn't really necessary, at least for the stock ROM, if you have no intentions of staying stock. The ROM .zips you'll subsequently flash are pre-rooted. After you Heimdall back to stock, and flash it again with "flash bootloaders" selected, then use Heimdall to flash this kernel:
http://d-h.st/6KA
That'll flash both a new kernel and CWM Red recovery. It'll take a few minutes to boot up the first time, as it's installing the lagfix. Once it boots up, just shut it down and boot back up in recovery. From there, you can do whatever you need to do.

As Apex pointed out, each time we bring the phone back to stock, we lose root access and all the previous setup. It's a fact of flashing.
No big deal though, rooting is easy and is not really needed. What is needed is the insecure kernel with cwm. The link Apex gave you is the same as the posted kernel in post #2 of the thread. That kernel will give you the cwm. Review that thread if you haven't yet.
Flash the heimdall uclb3 repartition package. Immediately after it successfully boot your phone, don't close the program. check the bootloader box and put the phone back into dl mode and flash it again to get your gb bootloaders...
then flash the kernel.
review my how to thread if you need to.

Thanks guys
It's been a crazy busy week and I just didn't have time to deal with the phone. I've been dealing with stock gingerbread. It's getting kind of annoying, though, it seems less stable than the custom ICS that I had on it before. Not sure when I'm going to have time to play with it again and try to get it to where I want it. I think I'm going to try to totally wipe all of the old stuff out of the memory before I do it again, though. There's something that wasn't allowing me to do what you guys are telling me to do successfully. I'm also thinking of finding a GS2 and just selling the Infuse, not because of my confusion, but because the GS2 was what I was originally looking for anyway.
I'll try to get this one set up first, though, as it's just a matter of me being obsessive about it.
qkster, I'll look into the JB, too, lol.

Hey I am not the Infuse user... But I faced similar problem in my xperia some days back after updating the recovery.
I was also not able to enter recovery at boot time using my usual volume down way...
What the change was the new recovery checks for tap on the screen (repeatetive) instead of volume down button...
Not sure if it will work or not for you... But you can give a try...
Hit thanks if it works

I didn't get a chance to try it, sorry! I ended up wiping my phone totally back to stock Gingerbread with nothing on the sd card, either, and starting all over again. It seems to be working really well this time (fingers crossed). RemICS-UX is pretty much awesome

[Q] Houston, boy do I have a problem!

Just rooted my new SGS3 using New Root Method Released for Verizon’s Galaxy S3, No Odin Required. i did the data & kelvic wipe then install Clean Rom 5.0. All progressed without a hitch. Even backed up with CWM prior to flash.
I rebooted into the new rom and got this: System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless... rebooted several time with same result.
What can I do now? Thanks for your help.

Just a wild guess, but me thinks your bootloader is still locked! But I'm not sure that will even apply because I rooted my device before unlocking the bootloader. But I rooted my device via ODIN first.
You can try EZ-Unlock via the Market. The GUI is still very buggy and will show the status as unknown but the internal workings of the app works good.
You got nothin to loose in trying. Go back to stock and give it another whirl after you've unlocked the bootloader.
Of that fails then I would suggest using the tried and true method..ODIN.
G'luck!

yup your bootloader is still locked
check the downloads thread and use version 1.2.

That means your boatloader is locked. You now must Odin back to stock and start over. Droid style has a guide stickied in the development thread. Follow section 6 of it.
Next time use ez unlock version 1.2 to unlock you boatloader.

Yikes, ok
You have to get into DOWNLOAD MODE.. Power+ Volume Down+ Home key at the same time after a fresh battery pull.
Do a search on the Development forum to set up Odin on your PC.

Yeah, perhaps a tad overdone on the theatricals.
Cut me some slack, I'm taking acting classes..lol
And... I know... I know..don't quit my day job!

Still having issues. I "think" I am in the download mode. Screen says Downloading.... It has Odin in red in top left corner. Device connects with Odin. BUT I am not getting a PASS message when flashing VRALEC bootchain. Last text line in Odin is: <OSM> Leave CS...
I have tried several attempts.
Suggestions?

No need to do the boot chains. Just follow section 5 of this guide and I recommend root 66 for the ROM you flash

Hi, I have a Verizon S3 flashed to Boost Mobile. I tried to gain root by flashing a stock rooted Rom and messed up the flash. I had to take it back to be flashed again  Now I'm more cautious before hand. I should have backed it up before attempting it, I know I know lol can anyone shed some light on how to update a flashed phone as well as how to root it. I could really use the help 
Also after I messed up the boost flash I paniced and flashed a sprint kernel hoping this would fix the problem. Since then anything that I've tried to view including taking camera shots and web browsing if done in landscape mode will be upside down, any remedy for this problem? I know now... root first, flash later.

[Q] Stuck in ODIN mode

I tried installing a ROM i found on this forum but when i went to reboot and turn back on a warning messege appeared saying something along the lines that the OS was blocked by verizon wireless and i had to bring my phone to the nearest store. It wouldnt reboot into recovery it just kept flashing back to the messege. Im not sure what i did but i managed to boot the phone into something called ODIN mode? It asked me if i wanted to install some firmware in which i assumed was the finishing process to the ROM installation but now its just hungup at the "Downloading...Do not turn off target!!" screen. Im not sure what to do from here any help would be greatly appreciated thanks!

cvbcbcmv said:
First, relax if you're nervous. There is nothing wrong. You didn't unlock your bootloader before flashing the rom, that's why the message is there. Read some of the threads (I'm mobile so I can't link but I'm sure there stickied in one of the sections) about restoring to stock. Grab the Odin file and read a tutorial if the thread doesn't have one on how to flash it. It's just another method of flashing to stock. I would give you step by steps if I wasn't on my phone in bed, if you still need help tomorrow hit me with a pm and ill help you as soon as I get home from school. I can get you familiar with the important things about rooting and flashing on this phone.

Thanks for the quick reply. Is it okay to power off the phone if it says its downloading still. And my phone used to be rooted until the OTA updated it to 4.0.4 for some reason it completely slipped my mind to unlock the bootloader again.

You aren't downloading unless you've hooked your phone to your computer and have run Odin

How to reset phone to factory not working..... please help!!

Ok, i rooted and unlocked the bootloader on my S3 per the directions here... i tried a few custom roms right a way and didnt like missing out on the touchwiz widgets on asop roms, so i went back to stock rooted and it stayed like that for months...
recently i decided to try some custom roms again which need the boot loader unlocked(clean rom) which will not boot. and MIUI which destroys my sd card's format.... this didn't happen before so i know something is messed up... these roms worked fine before and have a good reputation for stability... Im also seeing something new on boot.... as the samsung logo pops on the screen below it is seen a lock in the unlocked position... when i also go to oden mode i see that it lists my phones condition as custom!!!! The only instructions ive seen listed to get the phone back to stock is to oden the stock recovery.... which i have done... but the custom status remains... what am i missing? how can i get this thing to format competely back to factory so i can do a fresh unlock/root?

You need to use Triangle Away app to reset your flash counter

ok, how does the flash counter keep me from flashing custom roms properly? and is this unlocked lock saying my bootloader is still unlocked? i attached a pic of it at boot up...
i wasnt going to bother with the flash counter as i have no plans of sending this back to samsung, i just want to make sure the bootloader and OS are factory so i can re-root and unlock fresh....

If you have unlocked bootloader, then the samsung splash screen will quickly disappear else it takes some time. If u went to stock then re run procedure for the root. If you have root, you may use EZ-Unlock app to unlock bootloader.
Thanks doesn't hurt....

[Q] Can anyone help me finish rooting my GS3? Made small error.

So I was going along the steps in this thread right here, working on rooting and unlocking my phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2046439
I downloaded everything, Booted into ODIN mode and flashed the VRALEC, rebooted the phone into ODIN mode and flashed the custom recovery, I have a little unlocked padlock on my loading screen now so Im assuming thats how I know it worked. Unfortunately, I forgot to uncheck "Auto-Reboot". Now I'm too scared to go any further because the post says thats a very important step...so yea. Does anyone know if it's possible to roll it back to stock condition and start from scratch? And if it is, can anyone point me in the direction of learning how to do that? Thanks.
