I *think* forum.sdx-developers DOT com/epic-development/clockworkmod-recovery-for-the-epic-4g!-build-20!-beta/ (sorry, I'm not allowed to post hotlinks yet) is the post he was referring to.
Most likely that's the "standard" android recovery mode. If you were using ROM Manager to reboot into recovery, then try powering off and using the three-finger reboot into recovery instead (volume down, camera, and power). That usually works for me and reboots into ClockworkMod recovery instead, where everything works fine.

Thanks to all who replied. I got it working. This is actually not my phone. it belongs to a friend. I own the Fascinate and find it a little easier to mod. I am however happy I am having the opportunity to brick this phone because I am learning a lot. I am still used to my Motorola Droid 1 Being completely open and easy to mod. I have only been working with these Samsungs for a couple of days.
Edit:Yes I did mean to say brick as I have bricked and recovered three times now. I dont understand the people who don't enjoy doing this sort of thing. I have been having a blast with Android since my first introduction with it on the G1. Now can someone help me with issue #2? I have installed the OTA update and then Rooted with the one click v2.2.6 then reinstalled clockwork recovery. Everything is working great except...The market will not download. It runs and searches just fine but seems to be getting stuck on the starting download. I have been unable to download any apps.
I am stuck in ClockWork recovery mode
Can some one help me on this? I boot my epic to ClockWork recovery but now I am not able to get out of it. Every time I try to select anything and hit HOME button, the screen goes off and doing nothing and if I hit HOME button again, it goes back to Clockwork recovery mode. I even took out battery and put back in and try to reboot it, it still goes back to recovery mode. Am I missing something? Please help.
Thanks,
Hien Khieu.

Post in Bubby's thread. I believe this is in his FAQ section.
Hey guys, im a noob and i recently flashed ViperXL on my att HOX. everything was going fine except after i restored data from Titanium backup that i had backed up from previous ROM (AOKP build 4). Titanium said i had to reboot so i did. And now i am stuck on "htc ONE" screen. Is my phone done? please help!
Plug your phone in, use ADB to reboot into recovery, wipe everything and reinstall ViperXL.
Don't restore apps from another ROM like AOKP

Also reminds us all the importance of backing up our data via a Custom Recovery before flashing ROMs
ive stumpled on upon a quite annoying problem..i have an HTC ONE X+ which i unlocked my bootloader on and everything went smooth until i wanted to start recovery via hboot.
it did not start and i tried several times and restarted etcetc, i then tried to flash in another recovery and then tried more and more but nothing..
then i cant remember now exaclty how i did it, but i have several RUU, kernel, recovery, boot and roms n such items downloaded
so i tried to feed in another flash or rom or whatever its called to get the recovery funtion to work (i am not very pro at this) and then when i wanted to start my phone normally it all of a sudden wont boot properly.
it freezes on the bootscreen.. i can turn off and go in to bootloader but i cant do ANYTHING from there, i cant do a factory reset (wich i also tried when the recovery did not want to work) i cant do **** there. tried to lock and unlock bootloader.. feels like im out of options..
the only thing i can do now is command the phone via cmd and the toolkit i use from here "Hasoon2000s htc one x AIO kit"
using this guide on this thread mostly..
ive tried so many things now, searched this and other forums since friday and i still can not get anywhere... starting to think this is what the definition of a bricked unit is??
if you need any more info please just ask.. i bought the phone a week ago so kinda sucks if it would be useless for me right away haha..
i would appreciate som help and tips... please
Sincerely Jeff

Are you able to use the power button to "kind of" reboot? (like, it doesn't actually start up, but it still responds to the power button)
yes

Are you talking to me?
You replied to your own post, so...
P.S. I am not at liberty to share that information. Why do you need it?
The instructions to factory-reset your a800:
1. Press together : POWER + VOLUME UP about several second, a warning will appear onscreen.
2. Choose "Reset Device".
3. Reboot.
You should be back to stock and your problem fixed.
tried that!

I have a Oneplus One here and tried to install a rom onto it after wiping everything.
When I plug it in the charger it goes to recovery, when I reboot to bootloader it does the same, after flashing too.
How can I recover it?
Did you install TWRP or CWM ? If so try another rom , if not read up on adb and install custom recovery first and find out if your bl is unlocked , if not start there , theres alot of reading you need to do

I have TWRP. I had a rom installed so the bootloader is unlocked. All the guides suggest fixing it via fastboot but I cannot access that.. I think the partitions are messed up...

Hey I think you have same problem as me. It's the volume button. It's stuck at Volume - (down). So every time you start your phone, it think you want to go to Recovery. What I did was, I tap the phone little hard on my hand sideways when I boot it up. That unstucks the volume button.
It works for me but not sure if it is the correct way. Just a suggestion. Don't hold me responsible if it breaks anything else.

I wish it was that easy. I didn't have the back cover on it when I tried this.
Did you have a backup of the previous rom (if one) that would save you the trouble, if not , adb
