i installed cm11 through one click installer had cwm on it now suddenly after reboot its taking me to simple recovery?!?
dont know what happened..need help
in my rom manager app its still showing current recovery as cwm 6.0.4.5 but when i reboot to recovery it takes me to simple recovery
pls help!
ok edit : when i go to recovery from rom manager app it takes me to cwm but when i do it manually ( advanced power button and volume + power button) it takes me to simple?
edit again : when i click on install from sd card (to install m9) it takes me back to simple recovery even from within rom manager??
first off, get rid of rom manager. itll has so many issues and will cause you many headaches. what you did first is not flash a recovery to your device, you just booted it. thats only for a one time use. you need to flash the custom recovery to have it permanently on your phone.
Reflash your recovery. And I recommend TWRP. I hear complaints ALL the time with CWR due to bugs but never TWRP. I've used CWR in the past on my Droid X. But I've since gone TWRP and I'm never looking back.

use the flashify app, its free, and can be used to flash other things besides a recovery. its a great app. you dont need rom manager to get into a recovery ever. if you press the power button(long), youll get a menu, press reboot. then youll get 3 more option, reboot/recovery/bootloader, press recovery(after you use flashify to flash your recovery).
I recommended Rom Installer over Flashify. It will download your recovery for you and keep it up to date. It will provide ROM updates. Also you can create a queue of zips to flash before you reboot. Then it flashes them automatically. It's a really good app. Way better then ROM Manager. Made by Jrummy so you know it's good . Not trying to bash @simms22. It's just my preferred app.

Sent from my S3 via Taptalk
If you haven't already, download Rom Manager from the play store here.
Open the app, and go to the Recovery Setup section and you can update it from there.
Try this

Also IDF you want to try twrp you can get goo app and select menu then update recovery.

Can anyone please provide me with the latest s3 Verizon CWM Touch 6.0.2.8 odin flashable tar file?
Thanks in advance!
I made tar.md5's here of 6.0.2.8 for you guys of both touch and regular, you can get them here
http://invisiblek.org/sch-i535/recoveries/
I'm going to recommend that you DO NOT use the dd method posted above. Its dangerous. If you were to type the wrong partition, you could very easily brick your device.
If you want to use an img, use heimdall to flash it, otherwise create a tar/tar.md5 and flash it with odin
Or use rom manager
Or....find some other way....dd is dangerous http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dd_(Unix)

Definitely the easiest method! Just did it two days ago using this method
Its free for the non touch version, or like $1 or $2 for the touch version, well worth it!

I have always used the dd method to flash recoverys to my phone, but I always make sure everything is typed correctly in terminal emulator before I press enter. With this new information I will no longer use dd commands for anything.

I just updated via ROM Manager to Clockwordmod 6.0.2.9 and once I booted into recovery and did a backup, I was unable to reboot the system. I was able to reboot the phone via power + home button power on and installed Clockworkmod Touch 6.0.2.9. I also had the same problem with Clockworkmod touch where it wouldn't reboot the phone.

For those getting stuck in recovery loop...
Reboot in odin (power+volumedown+home) and select cancel.
Tokedup found this link for previous versions...use ez recovery to flash img files.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2096735
is this a known issue with the latest CWM? i ran into the recovery loop, too.
Using EZ Recovery and those recovery img files at that link work for me to get an older recovery installed. Also verified that I can successfully reboot the phone from recovery again.

I just rooted my Verizon Galaxy SIII (MF1) via Casual and flashed CM 10.1.2. Only problem is I can't reinstall any of my apps. I've tried pushing apps from my PC to my phone. Downloading while online from the phone itself. I used titanium backup and backed up everything before the flash, but I can't figure out how to access the data I backed up. Sorry, I'm a noob, but I searched for hours and couldn't find a solution to this specific problem.
(Also, my camera hasn't worked since the flash)

Yes, and now I just get a message that says "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped." As soon as I press OK it pops up again instantly ad infinitum. And now my phone won't boot into recovery!
Go into recovery wipe cache and dalvik reflash the rom and gapps.
Edit: sorry missed the can't get into recovery. Do you have goo manager or rom Manager depending on which recovery you use and reflash recovery via app. If not as next user pointed out Odin is your friend.

Then the only suggestion i have is to flash stock rooted rom or any TW rom and see if the phone works properly. Then we can proceed fresh again. If you run into issues on TW rom then a full odin to stock might be required.

Ok I just flashed my stock rooted rom and everything seems to be working just fine. I think I'm going to hold off on flashing a custom rom again. Want to do some more research first. Thanks for everyone's help!
I have 2 Recovery on my S3 and I don't know how that happen, I thought when you flash a recovery it would replace the existing one, this is the first time I see 2 Recovery on an Android phone.
I rooted my S3 using CASUAL 1-click method, is it possible that CASUAL flashed 2 recoveries? Anyway, I can use ROM Manager to switch the default recovery but I would really to have just 1 Recovery on the phone. How dow I remove one of them?
Thanks
You don't have 2. Its impossible. When you tell it to reboot to recovery, which none comes up?

BTW, as of what recovery comes up when I reboot it to recovery, it depends on what I default it to in ROM Manager.
My guess would be that you have TWRP as the actual recovery, but also have the CWM app installed. If so, uninstall it. I would also download goo manager and have it install the latest TWRP

It depends on which recovery it's set as default before I uninstall ROM Manager. If it's set to twrp before I uninstall the app, it would boot to twrp and vice versa.

The ROM manager is overwriting the recovery when you tell it to reboot into recovery. That's why you can boot to which ever one you want. You definitely don't have 2 different recoveries on you recovery partition. Hope that makes sense.

Rom Manager is not saying you have both installed. That is a configuration screen. It is saying, do you want to install CWM OR do you have CWM or TWRP already installed?

The Verizon S3 does not have TWRP 2.6.3.2 (or 2.6.3.3), which device are you on? The way to uninstall TWRP is to install the latest CWM via Rom Manager or by downloading the img and flashing it in something like Flashify.

Hello guys, this is my first post on xda forums!
I've got a question. I rooted my Moto G XT1032 with flashing superSU through CWM 6.0.4.7. After reboot, CWM offered me some options about fixing recovery, I just ignored it, selected no to every option. After reboot I had root access. For some unknown reasons, I am not able to do nandroid backup when I reboot to recovery. It looks like it is backing it up somewhere, but I cannot see it anywhere on my "sdcard". BTW, I choosed CWM because TWRP is extremely buggy, for my finger size unusable :laugh: . Thanks guys for every reply!!!
Oh, btw, CWM still offers me some "root fixes" when I try to reboot...
CWM ask you to fix root you should accept try flashing su again, try philz touch recovery

1)Your CWM Backup is Saved To Data/media/Clockworkmode (into the internal Directory)
2)In CWM Every time you have to select Yes To Fix Root... No Need To Flash supersu again and again.
My root always works, even if I do not choose to fix root, lol.
But i'll flash the phils recovery... Is it just normal process using fastboot flash recovery?

Got the same problem - I flash the TWRP image with fastboot successfully but when I try to enter recovery, it either reboots or shows me the stock recovery. I'm on stog Android 6, trying to flash a different rom and kernel...
we are on the same boat @granets . when i boot to custom recovery it just boots directly to homescreen.

Left the boat earlier by downloading TWRP again (for a third time!!!) and it worked fine. Guess when downloading from their site, there is a high percent chance you will get a corrupted file. So far around 50% of all images I download don't work, and every time the problem is different. Maybe try that
