[Completed] Help with cyanogen recovery loop problem - XDA Assist

I installed and flashed cm12 on my samsung galaxy s2 sgh t989 from cwm recovery and it was successful. After some time i had to check some things in developers options and there was something like that said update recovery with the cyanogemod updates and I checked it or turned it on, and then after a day I decided to go back to my original rom that I had backed up, which was CM11. So I went into recovery but it wasnt cwm recovery it was cyanogen recovery and it was useless because it didnt have restore or backup options, but then I accidently click delete cache parition or whatever its called. After that I rebooted my phone from the recovery but it didnt boot instead it took me to cyanogen recovery. I tried to wipe and delete all user data and some other options that i thought might help and then reboot but stills takes me to cyanogen recovery. I tried flashing cm12 and gapps that i had in sdcard but wontfinish to complete and then it takes me to the recovery. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
Should be able to find a flash-able zip for CWM (for this device) and flash it in CM recovery, then your backup will be waiting for you.. If things were that easy though...
At any rate, please go ahead and create an XDA account, so you can post in other forums. Then, add a post of your predicament in the > T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989 > T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting thread. Your device experts can be found there.
Hope this helps, and good luck!

[Completed] Can boot only into CWM on Tmobile SGH T-989

I loaded CWM v5.0.2.6 then wiped cached and dalvik cache then did a master rest. After rebooted, goes into bootloop with the tmobile s2 logo, progress bar goes all the way to the right then reboots, sometimes to the middle,sticks, then reboots and repeats. I then updated the CWM to v6.0.4.3 this morning, updated fine but told me my phone was not rooted. When I try to wipe cache, it hangs on the formatting cache (don't know if this latest CWM is compatible with the t-989?) If I try to do a reset, the recovery hangs. I have had this S2 since the S2's first came out with Tmobile. I want to install a fast kicka** rom. Just need help. Trying to learn the OS also, but for now just want to get this running. Thanks.
1.Phone is not rooted, I thought is was but CWM recovery said it wasn't
2. Boot loops while loading with Tmobile S2 logo displayed
3. Loaded CWM rocovery v5.0.2.6 When a master reset/wipe was performed with this version, it completed but still boot looped
4. Loaded CWM recovery v6.0.4.3 When trying to do a master reset/wipe cache, hangs and freezes. Will complete a Dalvik wipe though.

[Completed] [Q] Stuck in recovery loop after using Rashr Flash Tool

Phone: LG Spectrum
ROM: Cyanogen 10.1 3 or something
CWM Touch 6.0.4.7
So I was in the process of manually installing CWM Touch via Rashr Flash Tool, and when I successfully got it installed, the app asked if I wanted to reboot into recovery. So I pressed yes, and it did.
Unfortunately, whatever that app wrote into the androids system, it never seemed to remove it afterwards because after every single reboot, it kept going back to recovery, not loading the android OS. Even when I explicitly chose "reboot to bootloader" in CWM, it would still reboot to recovery. I've even went to a totally stock restore, and it still kept happening. Cleared cache, data, davik cache, same result. What can I do?
I currently have 2 restores. One of cyanogen, where i used Rashr's tool, and the other a V6 stock restore.

[Q] samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 (p5100) cant flash anything!!!

hi,
Recently i've updated p5100 to omnirom kitkat and i have CWM touch recovery. And also my device is not rooted.
out of the blues, my tab started auto rebooting itself. so i decided to do a factory reset to it. But i noticed nothing changed. the tab looked exactly the same. so i decided to flash a new rom (slimkat) to it. and i did. i followed the typical flashing technique through the sdcard. I cleared data, cleared partition, dalvik cache. and also flashed the new rom. but when i boot it, it remained the same old omnirom kitkat.
I did it a few times and got my tab stuck on bootload (omnirom) . i just dont get why CWM is not factory reseting the device or accepting any new rom. i even tried flashing TWRP. but no luck! so as a conclusion, my p5100 cant accept any new rom or recovery image and it cant factory reset. stuck on boot animation! but i could flash in the AROMA filemanager to it... would seriously appreciate if anyone could help me with this problem.
Thanks in advance.
