Directly booting to recovery

I have a rooted S-7500, with CWM recovery 5.0.2.8 installed. I (by mistake) allowed the 'software update' option to install a system update(or something) today by mistake (I know, you should never install system updates after rooting. My bad.) Since then, the phone directly goes to the cwm recovery mode on powering on, and i am unable to do anything else
I am not very well versed with the finer details of rooting bootloader recovery n all...so pls some details with steps...if possible .
Any help whatsoever...please I will be really grateful

Thanks!!! It totally worked!
Just a clarification...now that i have got the stock rom back on my phone...am i right in saying that I have lost root access, my phone is totally back to the 'original' state, and i have lost CWM as well? Please correct me if I am wrong.
And assuming that I am correct(above), I would like to re-root my device(need to use proxydroid to surf internet over the damned proxy server!). So..can I follow the standard method, ie, can I do it the same way I had done before, or do i need to do something different now?
And once again...THANK YOU for your help! I had ended up hard bricking my previous phone, and was really scared when this happend to my aceP. You saved me!

Easy way to ROOT your SGAP
Yes by the time you flash stock rom you loss root even any custom recovery you flashed before...
but now if you want to root your SGAP again don't follow that guide again which you done before just follow this :
Download ODIN from Downloading link below (inside ODIN software folder)
Download any one recovery which you like TWRAP / CWM v5.5 (inside Custom recovery folder)
Download Root_SGAP.zip from Root folder & place that zip inside in your sd card
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Download Link : GALAXY Ace Plus - Basic stuff
FOR Custom_Recovery :
Open odin, be sure your system has already install drivers & if kies is there close it.
extract recovery zip
connect device to pc in download mod (vol down + power + home) & select that (recovery) .md5 file in pda section inside ODIN software
Click start & wait to reboot device
FOR ROOT :
Now boot device in CWM mod ( vol up + down + power + home)
choose zip from sd card & select Root_SGAP.zip
DONE.

you've successfully ROOT & flash custom recovery on your device by just few simple steps ​

Just 1 more qstn...is it necessary to apply a custom recovery before rooting? If no, is it recommended?? Because the last time i rooted, it made me put a custom recovery before rooting.

if you are going to stick on stock rom forever & only want to root device then stock recovery is ok for you...
but while dealing with custom roms, custom recoveries are smart choice.
it has lot of additional options than stock recovery.
so my opinion yes use custom recovery ​

Stuck in boot loop
Got stuck in boot loop after performing the steps. I was running this ROM.
Had to reinstall the ROM. I'm sure there's something I didn't understand or something I did wrong. I'd be thankful if anyone could point it out.
Thanks in advance.

TWRP or CWM?

You can use any of them. Both are fully functional. I prefer TWRP because it makes smaller in size backups, it is a touch recovery also

TWRP fixes randoms reboots

No it is not a bug, just a removed feature. It is said that Samsung devices need this flag, that removes this partition thing

TWRP on the GT-S7275R?
Hey i found this guide for installing CWR on the GT-S7275 and thought it should be the same to install TWRP. Is this the Problem or that i have the GT-S7275R with the "R" ?
Is there a way to install TWRP on it to flash your CM12 ROM?

So i should try the cwm? Some other guys had similar problems: After step 10 i wanted to boot to recovery but after a few seconds of the recovery loading screen (blue text) it booted to normal android.

Uninstalling CWM, getting this version of TWRP
I'm trying to get CM 12 on a friends phone but I can't get the recovery to work,
This is what I did:
1. Installed CWM through ODIN v3.07 (going into download mode and stuff)
2. It worked! I went into recovery mode and started wiping everything, but I got an error when wiping the cache partition
3. The phone rebooted.
3. Went to ODIN again, downloaded TWRP but after installing it (which I did correctly according to ODIN v3.07) the recovery didn't change and it's still that buggy build of CWM that won't let me install CM 12 on the device.
4. I though I could force install the recovery using a .img I found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/ace-...3-lte-t2989278 but I really don't know how, any thoughts?
This is the buggy CWM copy I used and I want to remove: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2548856
Thanks!

hi there - i've tried both CWM (recovery-6.0.5.1.tar.md5) and twrp-2.8.7.0.tar.md5 but is still unable to install the cm-12.1-20150821-UNOFFICIAL-loganreltexx.zip.
I've downloaded the cm files a few times and have even formatted the sdcard yet receive this error message:
E:Cant open /storage/sdcard1/cm-12.1-20150821-UNOFFICIAL-loganreltexx.zip (Bad)
Installation aborted.
Appreciate advice on what I have done wrong or not done? Tks!

Proposals
Hello Kotzir,
First of all, thank you for your great job !
Install via ODIN, already known method, like CWM
On this thread, it would be helpful to add a link to the latest version of Odin, or otherwise a link to this page :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548856
And to precise how to enter the download mode :
1. Go to download mode on the device : when the phone is off, press "Home+ Volume DOWN + Power"
And, to be complete :
6. And when the phone is automatically rebooting, press "Home+ Volume UP + Power" to enter in the recovery mode.
Elsewhere the TWRP recovery will be erased by the stock ROM, and it would be to be redone...
Thanks !

hey i have a problem with this rom
it's my first time to rom my mobile
it's steps what i do
1- clockworkmod recovery 6.0.3 for samsung galaxy ace plus
2- Rooted my mobile and got a Supersu app after restart mobile
3- put rom file .zip in my sd and shutdown my mobile
4- i go in recovery and Wipe your data/cache, including the Dalvik Cache.
5 - when i try to setup the rom i got " status 7 install aborted "

2. Copy .zip into your sd card
3. Reboot into recovery
4. Wipe data, cache, dalvik e system! Remember, is very important wipe System for an clean installation
5. Flash zip from sd-card
6. Reboot

here you go buddy

[Completed] LG G2: Unable to install ROM using TWRP v2.7, error: Error Flashing zip, Updating par

Hi,
I am using TWRP v2.7.0.0 to install ROM, but getting error: "Error flashing zip(path),Updating partition details". I have tried with different ROMS, getting the same error. I think there is a problem with this version so want to change and use an upgraded one. I have already formatted my phone so cannot use any app to change the version of TWRP or install a different recovery. Can somebody guide me to install a different version of TWRP. Thanks in advance!
