Try flashing clockwork mod recovery again. Used to do this on my Vibrant as well.
EDIT: Just saw your post above... never seen that error. Can't help but go into the Vibrant sub section and you're sure to get help there.
I had issues flashing CWM to a motorola back a few years ago, had to revert to stock and re-root to resolve. Recently flash to Samsung galaxy nexus. Only would go into clockwork mod the first time rebooting after each flash till I deleted a file in the system folder. (/system/recovery-from-boot.p file) Seemed that file was causing the error no issue since. Were you ever able to boot to CWM?
Look for the AIO Vibrant Toolbox.
It has everything you need and will help you out tremendously.

When I first rooted I had a similar problem. Clockwork just kept reverting to stock. I re-downloaded the flashable zip, reflashed, and rebooted to recovery until CWM came up. Then I installed Bionix. It's stuck since then. Well, until I ODINed the GB bootloader on.
Keep trying good luck
I am completely stuck. My rom manager wont boot into recovery and I keep getting the same error when I click reinstall packages.

Alright this might sound dumb but i am a new noob at this. Anyway, i flashed AOKP rom build 4 through CWM recovery and was rockin that for a lil. Then decided to run ViperXL which i flashed through TWR because it couldn't flash through CWM? It requried me to install TWR and Aroma. Now when i tried to go reflash AOKP, something went wrong. After i factory reseted, wiped caches and reflashed the ROM, my phone rebooted fine. BUT, the "upgrading" message kept coming on a few more times after that then it would reboot everytime. My phone kep crashing after this. I couldnt do anything with the phone after this. So i rebooted to bootloader and tried to go on recovery through there to try and re-flash AOKP but i couldnt reboot to recovery, it would just stay on the "HTC quietly brilliant" screen and do nothing. So i rebooted again to bootloader and factory reseted and it rebooted to homescreen and ViperXL was still flashed. Im pretty confused on what happened and i need help. My phone is working fine with ViperXL but i lost everything on my SD card, all my backups and roms. Can someone tell me what is going on? The story sounds confusing but if you can understand please help.
You'll need to flash a new recovery image through adb. I would recommend using twrp. I was a big fan of cwm until I got my hox. Twrp is much more stable.

thank you, just did that and now twrp is running well. but yea cwm was good for me, until i started using twrp.
CWM was not properly ported to the OneXL. People kept having their sd cards wiped for no reason. Stick with twrp.. it's awesome. And I'm not sure what you did the factory reset in. If you facto reset in twrp you'll be fine as it doesn't touch the sd card. If you facto reset in bootloader it completely wipes your phone and sd card. Don't do that lol.

I am trying to fix my brother's One S. He rooted and installed TWRP and everything went fine. However he didnt make a backup and now when he tries to flash JellyBam its stook on the loading screen. I have tried doing a factory reset and reflashing with no success.
I have access to recovery and the bootloader but I cant transfer another rom via pc because it doesnt read it has a drive. Is there anything I can do?
Thanks, oh and I am unable to post this in the Jellybam thread as I dont have enough posts

Why not? TWRP can mount sd as mass storage. When you done that put boot.img somewhere easy to get at and use All-In-One Toolkit to flash it but the Toolkit calls it kernel so use that part to do it.

You have to have the ICS boot loader and Boot Menu Manager in order to install and run CM11 or any other ROM that is Jelly Bean and up. Just update your firmware, root, install BMM the start flashing. :thumbup:
So I'm having some trouble.. Before I do this I need to fix something.. Heres whats going on every time I reboot I lose my imei number my carrier says unknown and i have the red circle with the line thru it.

catch me up with what you did to get where your are at, I need to know your cause before I can find a solution.
next, are you rooted and have a custom recovery installed? You can boot but get nothing right? Did this happen when you flashed a new ROM or after you got rid of things in your system?

only thing i did was change my boot animation. An thats it downloaded cydia substrate and winter board.. I removed both and tried to reboot and same thing happened. Also it was doing it before I even installed them and changed the boot animation.
I might of deleted some att apps but when I did a full restore and got them back I even fully uninstalled bootstrap with titanium back up. An say after I fully restored I turned my phone off and back on boom no imei no service etc..
My phone is rooted an im on firmware 2.3.6
I have no clockwork mod I cant get it too work or I know I cant get clockwork mod wit bootstrap.. But even when i went into boot recovery i was just in a bootloop at my motorola boot screen. an was not able to get into recovery no matter what button i pressed.

I hate to say it but it looks like you might have to flash a jelly bean STOCK(not custom) firmware, then start over from scratch, I think you are going to have to do it anyway because there are things in the stock jellybean that you're gonna need in place before you flash any kind of new ROM, it would also be easier that way than trying to fix your problem befire you start.

did you try piwering off or pulling the battery out it back in and then use the button combination to boot to recovery instead if using bootstrap to boot to recovery?

yes as long as it is a stock version of jelly bean for your device, doesnt matter the version as long as its for your exact model number
you won't be able to do it through recovery though, you'll have to have a oc to flash stock firmware to your device, you'll need to download your stock firmware (not custom roms), the usb drivers for your device, and whatever program is required to flash your stock firmware. no other way, then you'll have to root again and install a recovery then you can find and flash whatever custom roms are available for your device

you might could just reflash recovery with a pc with whatever method your device uses on pc then flash a custom rom, its safest to just flash the stock and start over

there is a process that you can do through the terminal emulator app that you can make a backup of your imei and a method to restore it but you'll have to find how it is done for your device, do a google search for "HOW TO MAKE AN IMEI BACKUP FOR (your device model)" that should give you something.

Hello..!!
Do you've Atrix 2 mb865 ..?? if yes you can follow this step..
you need to download ICS/JB leak firmware for ur device AT&T/International version, then you need rsd lite to flash ur stock fw back to ur device via fasboot mode..
Root ur device again and then you need to install Boot Menu Manager from playstore . No Bootstrap anymore if you want to have KK rom on ur Atrix2..
Bootstrap only can be use if you're still on GB only..
Hope you got it my friend ...

No.. you no need to backup your IMEI on this device.. But you must need to backup your CID .
You can do it via bmm recovery.. there was a option menu to do it when you're on recovery setting interface ...

I told him I wasn't familiar with his device, I told him to flash a newer version of stock because it has parts he'll need if he flashes a newer custom ROM but he keeps wanting yo fix what he's running even though he's gonna have to flash over it anyway to get where he wants to be so I don't see wgat the problem is, flashing stock will get rid of his issue then flash up to whatever Rom he wants, I don't see why he doesn't just go ahead and do it now instead of doing what he's doing.

I was prompted for an update to SuperSU, I selected the TWRP option and my phone rebooted, did the update and then rebooted into TWRP. I attempted to reboot the phone numerous times with it only going into TWRP?
Using Stock Samsung ROM with root. Hoping this is fixable without a factory reset as I only rooted last night and stupidly hadn't made a backup due to lack of time.
Best regards
Why did you choose TWRP method? That's really meant for S-ON phones like old HTC's.
