To do so, go to recover mode (POWER OFF+VOLUME UP+POWER BUTTON). Now, from here you can do the same.

heheh! ok ok! ill explain more! in recovery, i will do factory reset! ok. then here is no option to turn off the device. it only has reboot option. after rebooting, the apps load itself, and a new cache, data is made. My problem still exists! :crying:

Download rom manager free from the play store and flash custom recovery from there and now try to boot in recovery mode. You should have cwm recovery. Now from here do the things u wanna do and then it should work. If u flash cwm recovery from rom manager, it will still raise ur flash counter so to reset it root and download triangle away. I have a tutorial for it. See my threads.

Firstly if u have cm recovery installed.. Go to recovery, wipe data, cache n delvk cache, format Sd card n format system as well.. Then reboot the device.. If tab fails to boot, relax, go to download mode by pressing volume down key + power key, then volume up key to go into download mode n simply flash stock rom through odin.... Secondly.. Jus flash stock rom through odin.. If tab stuck at boot animation.. Go to recovery on the spot by pressing volume up key + power key.. N simply wipe data/factory reset.. Dats it..

No reason to wipe before flashing stock via Odin because it resets EVERYTHING in the process.

Remove battery... Reinsert it.. Then hold vol down + power together.. You'll go to bootloader.. Then using volume up/down go to recovery and use power button to select it
Once you entered recovery.. Do full wipe ( factory reset + cache + dalvik wipe)
Then flash cm10 and gaaps again

Thanks that worked, i did that process 2 times before and now it works? Weird.
Anyway, I'm having another problem, I can't select what network I want, it's picked 02-UK but I want GiffGaff... it just says error. Any fix around this? Many thanks.

[Q] CWM Install on P500

Hi Friends,
Want to install an ICS ROM on my P500.
Rooted my device and installed ROM Manager on it.
Flashed it by selecting LG Optimus P 500.
After selecting recovery option, my device restarted and all the data was wiped out from my phone. (akin to factory reset).
Does not get into recovery mode at all.
I tried it 3 times and the same thing happened.
Seems flashing the device through ROM Manager does not work.
Any other way to do it!
Thanks!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2003080
Looks like you did the factory reset button combo. For recovery it is volume down + home + power.
And I recommend using amonra recovery

Actually,if there is no custom recovery installed,the same combo does a factory reset.
And the best way to flash recovery is this.
My recovery got corrupt due to which i had softbrick.
After all the searching.. THIS worked for me and is safe & easy!!
success
I was finally able to install CWM recovery 5.0.2.0 and flash my phone with JB ROM. :victory: :victory:
Now i have android version 4.1.1.

[Q] ICS Recovery Menu not working ,,,

I installed ICM on my Infuse but the Recovery Menu is not working.
All that is displayed is ...
GALAXY S
cyanogen (mod)
... and nothing else happens.
I had to remove the battery to get the phone to work again.
I tried to enter Recovery by selecting Reboot Recovery from the power button menu and also tried
holding down both Volume Up/Down and the Power buttons but they only
resulted in the GALAXY S screen.
Any advice?
Thanks
Carl
Not even using ROM MANAGER will get me to the Recovery Menu.
ROM MANAGER reports that my CWM is v2.5.1
Is there a security setting that prevents one from going to the Recovery Menu??
Did the key press sequence change from pressing both VOLUME UP/DOWN and then POWER?
Baffled.
Carl
that happens because you have to flash twice the ics rom, before opening new threads you should read the instructions.

I thought I had flashed the ICS rom twice.
I followed these instructions:
Coming from Gingerbread (double flash):
1) download rom
2) reboot to recovery
3) wipe data/factory rest, wipe cache, wipe dalvic cache
4) flash rom
5) reboot
6) will get stuck at samsung logo or something
7) simutaniously hold power button, volume down, volume up until your phone reboots and you see the samsung logo - as soon as you see the samsung logo let go of buttons (but not your phone lol)
8) mount system
9) re-flash rom with no wipes
10) reboot and enjoy
Was a little confused about "8) mount system" -- should it have been mounted or unmounted?
Anyway to get CWM installed now?

I thought I followed the video and instrutions just like shown.
Anyway, to reflash I don't have a Recovery Menu. So, do I set the phone
to Download Mode and use Odin?
If so, in Odin do I use the PDA button to select the ICS Rom?
Thanks

I think you should go back to gingerbread using odin and then flash the ics rom this way you will have a clean installation.

Took your advice and started all over.
Was able to get "BeanStalk" Jelly Bean OS installed on my Samsung Infuse.
I went back to installing Gingerbread using PIT, PDA, and PHONE files using ODIN3.
Then installed Gingerbread with CWM using ODIN3.
Followed Video carefully and got ICS installed with a working CWM recovery menu.
Found the "BeanStalk" version of JellyBean and got it installed.
Had some trouble with the Launchers (Holo, Nova, and Trebuchet). They continually
crashed with "Unfortunately, xxx Launcher has stopped".
Every action caused this Launcher to crash.
Somehow I got it to go away.
Thanks much for you assistance.
Been a real learning experience delving into this technology and its arcane terminology.
Still, a rewarding effort.
Thanks again,
Carl

Go into the stock recovery, clear cache and then factory reset

Revert to factory settings from the menu or wipe data from the recovery. You need the stock recovery

My stock recovery is broken, I am now doing factory reset from settings. Now I have to figure out why the stock recovery is broken, showing dead android with red triangle. Tried fastbooting the stock recovery again but same result.

Try
fastboot format cache
fastboot flash boot boot.img
To get into the stock recovery you need to hit vol up when you see the dead android

Ok so factory reset from settings fixed the storage issue, thanks all.
But nothing fixes my stock recovery, this is so frustrating. Tried your suggestion with the cache and boot.im, even rebooted bootloader and tried and then even tried fastbooting the recovery.img again but nothing. No combination of any button pushes works.

In recovery, hold power button and press vol up. That is what jd meant.
i have the same issue with the storage and stock recovery. followed the suggestion above (formatted cache and flashed boot.img) but did a factory reset from settings (not from stock recovery). This fixed the storage issue but stock recovery is still broken.

I thought my recovery was broken too (never kept my phone stock long enough to see it...) but you just have to push power, volume up, and volume down at the same time to make it show up.
