So ive rooted the phone and checked it with root checker says im properly rooted and bootloader is installed properly also. Ive followed instructions on the forum and even watched some step by steps on youtube. My problem that keeps occurring is when i try to enter cwm any which way it softbricks my phone. Ive found a way around having to odin, you just have too put the phone in download mode for 5-6 mins and then hold the power till it brings the battery up, if the battery actually shows its charging you did it long enough and go head and hold power to restart. Ive had to do this like 5 times already and dont know what could be wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks vguaderrama
This belongs in General, not Development.
Entering CWM would not in any way soft brick your phone, flashing roms can, but not entering CWM. the hard key combo to enter cwm is VolUp+VolDown+Power+Camera, which should work, even if you're soft bricked.
If you were really softbricked, letting it sit in Download Mode wouldn't help without using Odin.
sorry new to posting usually can get most things on my own just from reading thanks for the help tho really appreciate it.

To enter recovery its just Vol Up + Vol Down and power
Touche, I've been holding an extra button all this time...
Hold +/- down like it was a button

You have to hold the volume button down completely not just up or down, plus or minus, press the whole thing down as if it wasn't a multi fuction button.
What's happening?
When you try to boot into CWM, what happens? Do you get a black screen, the sidekick 4g logo or...? How did you install CWM?
I had a problem when I first installed CWM where it would hang on the sidekick 4g logo. It turned out that when I used adb to push the recovery onto the phone it set the file permission as read-only. I used the adb shell to change the permissions ("chmod 755 /system/bin/recovery") and it booted after that.
guys i restore a nandroid backup on my phone and now it wont pass the lg logo
and i try to go to nvidia recovery by pressing and hold vol down and power
but it wont go either it still stays on lg logo.

Hmmm....After holding power and vol down the android screen should pop up. Then release the buttons and it should go into the menu. I have no idea why the recovery did not successfully install.
Have you used the one-click method before on the G2x?

Well crap...that sucks. Maybe the partitions got messed up. A few people have had that issue. It can create all sorts of trouble. Or it could possible an ext 3 vs ext 4 issue depending on what rom you had and what you restored. It will take someone a lot more knowledgeable than myself to help you. Good luck.
Take battery out put it back in then hold volume down and power
i did that but ever since i flash the rom on the recovery to if it help to flash partition on it the phone die completely it would not do anything and stays on a black screen.
it wont even try to bootup
anyways i tried several methods and non of them worked other than ****ing it up more.
so i just called tmobile and asked for a replacement and it should be here tomorrow.
thanks to all the tried to help
It's not bricked. It turns on and boots. Just clear the Dalvik Cache in Clockworkmod Recovery.

Then use the One Click Recovery Flasher in APX mode to reflash recovery, then try to go into recovery again by turning on while holding the volume down key. If that doesn't work then find the method for flashing the Gingerbread ROM in APX mode. If that doesn't work I have no other suggestions for you.
I'm in the same situation with my G2x. Were you able to fix it? If so, how?
Update: Got it fixed. As jcbofkc recommended, doing the OneClick NvFlasher got me back up and running. Thanks!

First, have you ever gone into recovery and now you just cant no matter what you try? Or you never had gone into recovery?
Also:
What ROM are you running?
It was know that last Galnet MIUI "stable" build was making Recovery unnacessible, if you are in that case go Odin sorry no can do.
If you are not on Galnet "stable MIUI" then:
Recovery(The 3 button):
1.-Press Power Button and Volume up and down
2.-When samsung screen appears let got the power button ONLY while mantaining the vol up+down pressed still
3.- about 6 more secs and let go also the vol up and vol down.
4.-You are in recovery.
5.- If you are not pull battery and try again.
Not working? then probably the ROM you where running made Recovery unnacesible too so theres Odin
I was having the same trouble, i flashed MIUI stable rom xD but its now removed from thread right?
Anyways thanks!
I was having trouble going into recovery haha very different from my previous phone (Atrix)
So this is the first time i've borked one of my phones. I have a verizon GS3, i had TKrom b4.0 installed, decided i didn't like it and went to restore my previous backup. It didn't do something right cuz it still had the custom splash screen from TKrom, and it wouldn't go past that. I then clean flashed the newest carbon nightly 10-9-2013 and it said my phone appeared to not be rooted, so i swiped to install su (probably my error) Anyway now it won't boot up or go into recovery (TWRP). Any help would be greatly appreciated, i know this site is filled with knowledgeable induviduals so i don't doubt someone will have the answer. Thanks so much..
Well if you can't get into recovery then your only option at this point is Odin. You can get into download mode right (Power + home + Vol down)

Yeah i can get into Odin, but i'm not sure what to do after that.

by holding down volume up+home button+power at the same time. But i ended up doing odin back to stock and redoing root/recovery, luckily i wasn't hard bricked(phew)... Anyways thanks for the help guys
On my son's S3, I couldn't get into recovery one day using that. What ended up working was holding down those (3) buttons and when it vibrates, release the power button but keep the others held down until the splash screen for the recovery tool shows.
Came back to my phone this afternoon and it was restarting. Put it down to let it boot, and 5 minutes later, it was still booting. Then I noticed that it was in a boot loop. Tried pulling the battery and putting it back in, then holding the power and volume up to get to recovery, but it will not go into recovery mode. Need some suggestions. Has android 2.3.6 I believe, nothing special.
