HELP-Cannot install ANY recovery

Hi. I really started to hate android.
OK,What's wrong with my O1? I'm using stock 2.3.3 unrooted to flash recovery. I rooted, i flashed a recovery and bang...just a hard reset no recovery installed! I tried with ROM Manager and few other apps, but it''s not succesful. I've tried to flash V10H.kdz (2.2.2 froyo) and try again but..no. ROM Manager says its succesfully installed CWM and when i click BOOT TO RECOVERY it boots to...hard reset. What is wrong with my O1?!

All new users flashing recovery through rom manager getting this problem

Lolz.. definitely he doesnt know much about Android phones.
Dude.. are you properly rooted or temporary root??
If have succeeded in flashing recovery.. check which rom you are trying to flash and which model you own!!

first the method work for many if u follow the instructions carefully
second if u hate android who cares just go we were only helping u because u asked not becausr u oredered

Ok, i was angry. I DO NOT HATE ANDROID. But it's obviously not my favourite. I just don't like its UI. I want XPERIA-ICS as XPERIA TimeScape UI has the best UI for me, and Sense too (but we don't have any stable working sense ROM's).
So can someoen rpovide me older version of CWM for old baseband? I can flash it with recovery flasher, and please let it be in .img format, as recoveries in .zip format cannot be flashed.
I Have CWM in ZIP format, but i cant flash with with AmonRA,wich im using. So hwo to remove amonRA,and install CWM properly?

Flash cwm over amonra.. same.. like you flash a rom through recovery.
You can later theme your phone just like xperia or sense.

Hi I have a suggestion for u
Find an app to reboot on fastboot then use this(download a good recovery image coz the one in the one provided in this tuto is bad)
Good luck!

[mod][for the phones bootng only to recovery] solution inside

your phone is booting to recovery only ,after installing custom recovery
here is the solution.
1.if you want to install custom rom and gapps, install twrp recovery
and install rom,gapps,and other mods
2.now your phone will not boot to system
3.after installing custom rom you need to install this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=928219&d=1330695090
see the video it is explained

if you are stuck in recovery mode you need to flash bootloader
you are saying that you need to flash again stock recovery( if i want to have custom recovery and i'm stuck in custom recovery and after i flash stock recovery what's the deal ?? ).. you're wrong in my opinion
here it is the solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24831012&postcount=1330
edit: i also think this thread is useless because in i9001 wiki page you'll find th solution for this problem and much more and even in some OP you'll see
edit 2: your video it's really cool.. i've just learned so much from it ))))

Here is the Proper fix

Thanks for your effort but this is already known for a long time by almost everyone.

I had use today odin for a long time. Probably haven't flashed anything via odin at least in 6 months or more.
I got bootloop to recovery. Now it's working.

Wow, thanks for the effort you've put in making this thread, and even making a video, but next time, use THE SEARCH BOX.

[APK] Flash Zip Files, NO NEED FOR CWM OR TWRP!

Hi Guys!
Today I'd like to share how you can flash those .zip files without a custom recovery!
All you need is the Flash Gordon APK: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250555
This can flash recoveries, its made for people who have a locked bootloader!
The app is still in it's early stages!
All Credit goes to Androguide.fr for making this awsome app.
THIS APP CANNOT FLASH ROMS!!!

I shared this a couple of months ago in themes & apps section and i have it pre installed in my AVD Rom

K No Problem just making the community aware that xperie e locked bootloader is not dead and can flash zip files!

Yea i was glad when i found it so J users could update my rom without downgrading to ICS every time. So i released update patches

What can you flash with this?

Everything but ROMS!

As long as the update zips are not replacing to many framework & lib files at once.

keep in mind you need busybox installed
use this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox

Could i flash cwm with this

without a recovery, no, trying to flash with Flash Gordon won't work out well because many system files will be replaced during the flash and that will force android to crash before the flashing has a chance to finish, resulting in a bootloop

Will I be able to flash CWM with this?
I have rooted my XE c1504 using Gandalf exploit and have a locked bootloader.

[Q] S2+ I9105P won't boot into system when custom rom is installed

Hello xda forum,
i own the before mentioned phone and recenty i tried to flash some custom roms on it but every time it wouldnt boot into system.
firstly i installed CWM with odin and rooted the phone, everything worked fine.
but after flashing any custom rom i tried (axxion, unofficial cm11, sazy and something else i think) it stops at samsung galaxy s2+ black and white screen for hours. or sometimes loops the same screen with few seconds of blank screen in between.
i flashed the stock back with odin and it worked fine, repeated cwm flashing and rooting, flashed custom rom. repeated that at least 4-5 times with same results.
my goal is to flash resurrection remix but it said
"Make sure you are either on any KitKat ROM (CM11, SlimKat, etc) or on 4.2.2 TW based ROM and NOT on 4.1.2 TW based ROM"
so i tried to flash cm11 before.
also tried the solution i found on forums (wiping dalvik cache and wiping cache numerous times, fixing permissions and all that with no luck)
i can acess CWM and download mode without problem but cant boot into system, only if i load a backup or flash a stock.

bump
anyone? pls help
im out of ideas

First of all, is ur Stock Rom 4.1.2 or 4.2.2? U can't flash cm11 or resurrection rom(or any other roms) if u have 4.1.2.
Sent from my GT-I9105P using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

thanks for reply,
my stock is 4.1.2. therefore i need to update to 4.2.2 first?
can you send me a link or something as a guide or ill search for it.
which basically means i need to flash 4.2.2. then cm11 and then resurrection?
or i am doomed to use stock?

Yes, u need flash 4.2.2 first and then custom rom. Custom roms don't work with 4.1.2 bootloader. U can find good guides if u search "how to flash Stock rom"

Edit* And i "cm11 or resurrectuon remix " u can flash any rom what u want.

could anyone possibly send me a good dl link for 4.2.2 stock?
all i seem to find is some bull**** locked to 50 kbps and such
is any firmware for I9105P from sammobile.com safe for me to flash?

Which method to Root and Recovery on the ATT G3 ?

I need a little guidance here please. There seems to be several different ways to root the LG G3, but a lot of them are for the International or T-Mobile unlocked G3's.
So for the ATT G3, which method do we use to Root ? Stump ?
And to install TWRP Recovery ? I read about something named Bump'd ?
My main concern is, I won't get this phone if it's ike the nightmare of ROM'ing like the old ATT Galaxy S4 was, with bizarre things like Safestrap, and or the old ATT HTC One X with .boot img files you needed to installed in fastboot, etc...ugh I want nothing to do with that :silly:
My last few phones, OnePlus One, and ATT HTC One M8, were a breeze and easy to root, and custom Recovery installed normally, no tricks or weird Bump's or Safestraps.

You didn't look hard enough

OK but for TWRP Recovery and flashing ROM's. Can I only flash ROM's that say "BUMP'd" in the title ? Can the ATT G3 only use those type pf ROM's ?
