I have the Xoom LTE using CM10.1 nightlies. I am using ROM Manager along with clockwork recovery. When I attempt to do a backup of my ROM the progress bar doesn't move from empty even after 4+ hours. I have been trying to Google around for answers unsuccessfully. I have read that backups should take at most 15 minutes so I am at a loss why mine does not appear to be moving at all after hours. Any helpful advice?

Have you tried to manually do a backup with just clockwork recovery.
(ROM Manager could be causing ur issue.)
Yes. I manually went into recovery and tried but had the exact same issue.

hmmm.... odd. Try a different recovery, maybe TWRP Touch Recovery? Try reflash ROM and Gapps. Sounds like there my be some data corruption.
Yeah I was trying to avoid going back to twrp... The relating didn't change anything either. Thank you!

Looks like you're having issues getting into the recovery. That screen isn't the recovery, and I've had it before.
A lot of times, when you root on a stock rom, the phone deletes clockwork and restores the old recovery. That might be why you're having issues with it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895545
The second post on this thread describes how to make clockwork stick. You might need to make use of some adb commands OR get an app like Root Explorer.
1. Flash the recovery
2. Follow the instructions in the second post before rebooting your phone.
That should do it.

Actually it is. That's the stock recovery, but it's options are too limited which is why we use CWM.
Rest of your instructions should help the OP out though, good on that.

Just flash clockwork again and flash a non stock rom, or remove the file as described if u wanna stay stock.
Ya I think it was just freezing up got into recovery and installed new rom
I do thank everyone help

True-say! Thanks for the correction
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?

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 tried to install the kexec recovery and my phone is rebooting the whole time. It says installation aborted. What do I do?
Was able to flash the back to stock zip. Am I supposed to flash a rom first before I flash the kexec kernel?

How did u try to install the kexec recovery easiest way if your are rooted is download ez recovery from play store. Choose version 6 not not touch or twrp and flash recovery then reboot recovery u will then have successfully booted into a kexec recovery

So all I do is start ez recovery then cwm 6.x then reboot? Then I can flash a rom?

should be in clockworkmod/backup on either the internal storage or external sdcard depending on how you have it set up. The latter requires the card being formatted as FAT32 atm though.
Is there anyway I can switch it to external sd? It saved to my internal. Or will it save to external if I change it to fat32?

There should be a backup to external sdcard option in recovery that will work once the card is reformatted.
Sorry don't mean to be annoying, but if my card is fat32 it would have automatically saved there?

Not that I'm aware of. When you go into backup and recover in cwm there are multiple options. The standard backup or restore options go to internal. The ones labeled external go to the removable sdcard
And if it's not fat32 will it tell me it won't work?

Forgot the exact error but the first and second options for backup and restore are the only ones that work if it's exFAT.
Okay, also if I do backup from internal will that wipe everything on there if I wipe data? Kind of a stupid question but just want to make sure.

Part of the internal storage is labeled as sdcard and protected from the data wipe in cwm. Otherwise you'd be sol'd if you wiped data and then wanted to flash something. :laugh:
Haha yeah just wanted to make sure. Thanks a lot for answering my questions!

Use ez recovery for gs3. It makes things really simple. Make sure to get cwm 6.1.0 for k exec or else you will not be able to boot. And all ways back up your current ROM for safe flashing

Flashing Odin back to stock keeps failing
I got stuck in a bootloop and have been trying to flash back to the factory image from samsung-updates.com and it keeps failing. Im trying to find a different stock image to see if a different file will work. Any help would be appreciated
On the guide vzw gs3 edition there one step 3 go to the RootzWiki link and there is a revert back to stock image.

CWM bricked your m7.... K
What you need is the recovery itself, which can be found in the original development section. Then just install the same way you did with cwm, or use flashify.. Make sure you hit recovery instead of boot.. It'll cause problems.

Ok I should rephrase that. I had cwm when it bricked. I was making a nandroid backup and it froze in the middle of the process. Sat there hanging on the same screen for 3 hours So I was forced to hard shut off the phone. When I rebooted, it wouldn't mount to anything and is now a beautiful brushed aluminum brick. M7 aside, I can just flash twrp right over cwm? I don't have to revert to a stock recovery first?

Correct, you can just flash one recovery over another
First off, sorry if this isn't the right place for this thread. Yesterday my rooted gs3 running cm 11 started randomly turning off. This morning I got sick of it and formatted and wiped the phone. (factory reset, data & cache wipe) In clockwork recovery when I hit reboot now, it says I have lost my root and can select an option to root now. I hit yes, the phone boots to where it says Samsung Galaxy S III with the cyanogenmod theme. This is where it stays. If anyone can help that would be greatly appreciated.

When the phone is connected to my pc there is no folder with my phones storage.
Can you put a ROM on an SD card?
You might have to use Odin to flash a stock image if you don't have an sdcard
