Ughhh... I am in recovery and after a restore , I go to reboot system and instead of going to rom it brings me back to recovery again. I can't get out of recovery. What can I do????
Thanks...
i'm having the same problem right now too.
Boot into download mode and hit the volume down to cancel (reboot)
Should work for now until there is a patch.

you can also use Odin to flash an old version.
Just remember to either use odin to flash an old version or find one through ROM Manager, so you don't get stuck in a boot loop again next time you restart the phone.
I am having the same problem. Booting to download mode, selecting yes then pulling the battery got me out of it. Very frustrating to say the least.
Is there a problem with the new CWM touch that just came out I wonder?

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

Hey guys i just got this phone from a random on craigslist and hes unlocked the bootloader and stopped there. I dnt know what method he used but in order to power on the device i have to use certain button combos. Example it boots straight to recovery so i reboot now and while its rebooting i have to hold both volume buttons and the power until a white lettered screen pops up and use volume up to power on. And tips? Ty in advance.

on the white-lettered screen try and choose Bootloader. if you can get there you can flash either CWM or TWRP recovery, then flash a working system, or else do a full firmware flash with RSD Lite. or if he already flashed a custom recovery you could boot there and try flashing a working ROM.
Hes got cwm on here. And from what i can tell just rooted the stock rom. Ive never seen a device having a method to power on except maybe a semi tethered jailbroken iphone. Idk

Any suggestions for roms for when i get this figured out?
Sent from my XT897 using xda app-developers app
The device should turn on normally, unless he did something to put it in a bootloop. That's why i figured your basic option was to do a stock restore of some kind.
Check the dev. sections, but rooted stock is basically the only option at present. There are starts on CM9 and CM10 builds, but i don't think they do a whole lot besides boot up. There is a deodexed version of stock that you can flash, and at least apply some tweaks and such
Right on thanx man ill try it and see what happens.

Ok new topic. I think the dude i got the phone from unlocked the bootloader but didnt root it. He said it was rooted. But when i dl rom manager it said i wasnt. So i guess my question is how do i root the thing?
Sent from my XT897 using xda app-developers app
Ah ok, if the bootloader is unlocked, just flash either CWM or TWRP recovery thru Fastboot, then boot into recovery and flash SU.
Edit: after flashing recovery, make sure to boot straight into recovery by holding the volume up button while rebooting. If you boot into the system, it will probably overwrite your flash with stock recovery.
Hes already installed cwm. I cant use regular boot methods. When i reboot the phone it boots into recovery. Thats when i hold down all the buttons to bring up the boot options screen. So basically all i have to do is flash the su file? Btw I tried doing that along with flashing a kernel and cm9 it wouldnt boot into the rom.

I'm not sure how you're sending all these messages from a dead phone...
But regardless, CM9 doesn't really "work" per se. It boots, sure... but nothing else works.
You're going to have to flash one of the stock backups people posted around. I know there was a .win backup of everything - which you'll need TWRP to restore.
Guys suddenly i booted my phone and all the apps starting to crash, so i got into recovery, wipe cache, dalvik cache and data then reflash the rom i used and now its stock into boot screen! i cant get into recovery! i can only boot into download mode!.

Three finger salute
Hold volume up, volume down and power until you get to the Samsung splash screen then release the power button. You should find yourself in recovery after the kernel splash screen. If it goes into your boot animation, you failed and should do it again.
Edit: I saw that most of your other stuff is with the SGSIII. Do you have a SGS4G that you are doing this on, or did you wonder here by mistake?

Pull the battery first, with the USB unplugged. Put the battery back in, then do the three finger salute. That's what I do when reboot loops happen for me...

yes guys! forget about the s3 sig, i have it also, but i rooted a sgs4g of my friend and installed Ccustom rom, not he had this issue after like 5 months i told him to reflash the ROM and hes in a bootloop, he CANT get into recovery :/, he cant boot only odin!.
If you are doing this via proxy (him actually doing what you tell him) then tell him to get rid of odin and download one of the Heimdall one clicks. If you can get into bootloader mode you can flash a back to stock.
Also If you pull the battery and wait a couple minutes then put it back while holding the three buttons sometimes that will jumpstart recovery mode.
We have an awesome guide on how to get back to stock gingerbread which will allow your friend to flash back to a stock rom if he can get into download mode. Full guide with pictures

Hello All - I am a long time viewer of the forum, Recently I noticed an update available for the GS# to 4.2.2. I downloaded the Rom and began my normal process of using ROM Manager to boot into recovery mode to install the latest file. When the update finished applying I was presented with a brief view of the Samsung boot screen and then remained stuck on the Google Boot Screen.
I downloaded a stock firmware to apply with Odin 3.07 but it fails halfway through the write process.
Can someone please give me a hand or point me in a direction if you experienced the same problem.
Also when I try to load into recovery mode the phone screen remains black.
Thanks for any help!
Nick
What rom did you try to upgrade? Link please? And just to verify, do you have a Verizon GSIII?

I tried to download the 4.2.2 file from the following location,rootzwiki - "aokp-d2vzw-jb-mr1-build-4", went through rom manager and now is timing out on the google screen.
I do still have the phone with me currently. Thanks for any help you can provide.
I never use Rom Manager so that's not surprising to me. When you pull the battery then hold power, home, and Up until it vibrates does it boot to recovery? I would suggest flashing through CWM.

It may take a few attempts to get it to work since it's fickle sometimes.

Thanks SlimSnoop I have tried roughly 15 times and am still not having any luck, are there any other tools you or anyone can suggest??
Yea, as long as you can boot into download mode then I suggest you utilize Odin and flash a stock image. There are two routes that you can go:
1) Odin flash the Verizon OTA VRBLK3 stock tar from DroidStyle's guide in the dev section. With this method, you would be returned to out of the box VRBLK3 and would need to root/unlock then flash roms again. The Odin tars included here are labeled as wiping /sdcard so be mindful of this.
2) Odin flash a rooted VRBLK3 image from mrRobinson thread. His thread contains Odin flashable rooted tars that are exactly the same as the OTA equivalent except they are rooted already. With this method, you would just need to unlock your bootloader using EZ Unlock v1.2 before flashing any custom roms. There's two versions of each rooted image here, one that wipes /sdcard and one that does not. So if you download the one labeled as wiping /sdcard all of your contents will be completely erased.

So I flashed the latest miui ROM and its been running fine but there were a few glitches so I wanted to flash back to recovery and do a clean reinstall. Ive had the phone for almost a year and have flashed many roms so ive got some experince here. The issue is that the phone will flash to the TWRP screen, but then go black, vibrate twice and boot back to the Samsung Galaxy screen. It never actually boots back into recovery. I've tried doing a battery pull several times and the same thing happens. I'm away from my computer at the moment so I'm wondering if I have to Odin back to stock. I'm open to suggestions..

Your not understanding what I said re install the custom recovery. Using goo manager app reinstall twrp.
You do it from the phone not computer and not in recovery. Right from the app.

Can you download from ROM Manager from Play Store and accomplish the same? It should allow you to download a recovery of our choice, or let you know you already have a Recovery in place. But I also believe it is the ROM you install that makes the phone boot to recovery, so you may need to start recovery manually until you successfully install a ROM.
