If i do a Nadroid backup in Rom Manager before flashing a ROM and the flashing goes wrong and the phone wont boot.
Is there a way to Restore the Nadroid backup and get to the ClockworkMod menu without hooking the phone up to a pc and running windows tools.
The only menu i can get to is the HBOOT one which gives me the options
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
CLEAR STORAGE
SIMLOCK
if i choose recovery , the phone reboot to a black screen with a phone and a red triangle with an exclamation mark.
when your phone is at the screen with the phone and the red triangle with the exclamation mark press vol-up + power button
a blue menu will then appear, select 'apply update.zip' (this ensures that you have update.zip on the root of your sdcard.
if you root your phone using unrevoked then this blue menu will be replaced with the clockworkmod recovery meaning no more phone with red triangle and exclamation mark.
if you use unrevoked, you can reboot into recovery simply by holding volume down when turning on your phone.
hope this helps
superb just tried it. thanks so much for that

it just vibes 3 times and nothing? I can get into Rom Manager recovery but why can't I using regular method???
Rooted today using unrevoked....then load Rom manager 3.0.0.8 made recovery from that and now I can't even boot in the Vol up or down + power?
If you pressed vol + and pwr you put it into debug mode. Pull the battery and then do vol - and pwr, it should boot into the bootloader.
Same issue as the O.P.
I press PWR+VOL DOWN and get it to the screen that shows hboot, recovery, fastboot, etc.... BUT I can't access Recovery AT ALL. The VOL UP & VOL DOWN keys do absolutely nothing.
Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks.
Found the fix... had to remove the p5 img from the sdcard that was used to root the HTC TB. If you don't remove it, the phone automatically tries to load it.
I'm having this problem too only I can't boot into my phone at all. I loaded nerozehl's latest kernel and can't get back into my phone. It just comes up saying "Process system is not responding." I have the radio on the root of the sdcard but don't know of any way of getting it off.
Any suggestions?
EDIT: And I just remembered that I could do adb reboot recovery. Whoops...
Hi,
I had one Defy with OS 2.1 Update1 with 2.51 FR Blur Version (original).
Next i upgrade it to Froyo 2.2 3.4.3 USAJRDN with JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-3_SIGNED_USAJRDN.sbf
First i did the reset factory... Wipe cache/data.
The OS was stable but no Market. I try enter in recovery system with app "System Recovery" and on ROM Manager with ClockworkMod Recovery and i just can't. When the reboot starts to enter in recovery, it was booted to normal boot.
I tried enter in Android System Recovery with (Vol Down + Power) and appear the green android and ! signal but, i press in right lower corner and nothing. I need to reboot normal removing the battery.
I just can enter in fastboot (bootloader) with Vol Up + Power to flash ROMs with RSDLite.
Then I flashed the boot_only.sbf for 2.2 with the rsdlite and it reboot and nothing happens.
After this i flash again with RSDLite the new version
Android 2.2.1 "Froyo" (leaked,beta)
3.4.3-11 UK Tmobile Blur DOWNLOAD/Thread
This one bring back the Market, OK, but. As i didn't the wipe, all apps that i had still there.
The recovery mod continues. I can't enter in recovery mod.
This is normal?
What did i miss?
Thanks a lot.
To use Custom Recovery, disable ADB in Settings => Applications => Development => USB DEbugging
To use normal recovery, use Power + Vol down, and use vol up + vol down to see the options (not lower corner)

Not work. I can't enter in recovery mode (costum or normal).
Ok, first fo here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944543
Download the custom recovery, disable ADB, install the apk, go to the aplications => "System Recovery" and click on "Install Recovery System". Then click Recovery Boot and you will go to the Custom Recovery.
If you need to go to normal recovery, power off your device, press and hold vol down then power on defy.
Ye, but i already did that. I have clockworkmod recovery installed. I try enter in recovery with ROM Manager, normal recovery (Power+Down) but i can't. With custom recovery, when the phone reboot, normaly we enter in recovery mode but, the phone rebbot again and enter in normal boot. With normal recovery, appear the signal and the green android icon and i can't enter in normal recovery too (we need to tap in the lower right corner of the screen).
No, tap in the lower right corner applies for 2.1 Android. For 2.2 you need to press both volume buttons to get the recovery menu.
So, procedure:
1. Hold down Vol down and power
2. When you get the green Android icon press both volume buttons (vol+ and vol-) to get the recovery menu.
Hiya i wanted to root and CWM my new desire HD so i followed this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841076
Everything went fine and i got CWM up and running and installed MIUI but didnt like it so i wanted to go CM7 but i accidently went to the first sort of recovery mode (the one with the android on skateboards =)
http://www.nexus-lab.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/desire-hboot.jpg )
So it automatically started to install the HTC android 2.2 Ver 1.32.405.6
that went all fine but now all the apps keep automatically crashing but the worst bit is i cant seem to be able to access the recovery mode or CWM no matter how i press the volume buttons during start up i know the volume buttons work fine as they change volume etc but when i press them at start up its as if the phone ignores them and just countines to turn the phone on normally...
Im new to the desire hd but i do have experience from CWM from Dell Streak days...
Any help appreciated...
Power off phone.
HOLD vol dn, & then press Pwr On button once (Don't release vol dn until have Bootloader menu (HBOOT).
Use vol key to go to highlight Recovery, press pwr button once
Should boot into CWM Recovery (mine shows the HTC logo for a few secs first), if it's installed properly
Edit: If you still have the 1.32 PD98IMG.zip on the sdcard, it will ask if you want to install/update. NO.

Ive tried this but no matter how i press the vol dwn button it refuses to go into recovery mode and just boots up into normal sense...
You say all apps keep crashing,..........
If ROM Manager doesn't crash, you can "Reboot into Recovery" from there.
Hold on im getting something...
i can access the recovery bit but when i highlight the recovery button it gives me a red esclamation mark
so i ran a factory reset and the apps seem to be working for the moment
but still the red esclamation mark
i assume CWM didnt install properly then? but the rom manager says its installed fine but when i click on the boot into CWM it gives me the same symbol?

Hi there,
I think your phone might not be totally powering off, hence that's why you are not able to get into the bootloader [ the one with Android on skateboards ]
Try this: Make sure your phone is powering off completely before you try to boot into the bootloader. Go to go into Settings > Applications and uncheck the "FastBoot" option in order for it to power down completely.
Then try the same sequence again. Holding down the Volume Down button while starting up.
See if it works.
What happens when your in that ! screen, HOLD vol up & press power button once?
Also
You can also try to boot into Bootloader or Recovery via ADB commands.
Enusre USB debugging enabled and fastboot option disabled.
Check adb connection to phone first in CMD (Command prompt) type:
"adb devices"
you should get a serial number of the phone HTxxxxxxxxxx, meaning it can communicate ok
Then try either;
1. "adb reboot recovery"
2. "adb reboot fastboot"
Ive managed to fix it by going to rom manager and installing a previous version of CWM
Thanks all the guys for the help! XDA FTW
OH just a quick side note if i did every want to just say return everything to normal like how i got the Desire HD you know no CWM or custom roms just with the sense v1.7 how would i do that?
Make a CWM recovery of your Setup now, and also keep it on you pc for safe keeping. Never know if the sdcard becomes corrupted or not. Also make a note of which recovery version was made to produce the backup. Some are incompatable when trying to restore you backup with a different version.
If you mean normal, there are a few links around to revert to stock (if that's what you mean), and tools to help make s-on again. By flashing the stock RUU, you will lose root, and it will overwrite the recovery with stock recovery. If you had to made a goldcard prior to rooting, you may require this.
Added info from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857537
To go back to S-ON:
•Flash stock ROM (RUU)
•Temproot using Visionary
•Use my tool, do Stock CID and S-ON (enter brand CID if you had a branded device, see second post)
•Enjoy your factory-state phone

Adding on to what UpInTheAir said, "If you still have the 1.32 PD98IMG.zip on the sdcard, it will ask if you want to install/update."
Note:
If u have finished the Downgrading process and u r done with the 1.32 PD98IMG.zip, remove it from the SDcard, safekeep it on your PC somewhere (in case your might need it again, maybe).
If you do not remove it, each time that you startup into the bootloader [yes, the one with the Android on skateboards.. Hehe.. ], it would automatically scan and if it finds that PD98IMG.zip file, it would begin loading the image to install the 1.32 stock ROM.

I try holding Vol- and Power when rebooting, but it doesn't work. I installed ADB with root and choose to reboot into recovery, but I get a green android character with a yellow ! inside of a triangle. What am I supposed to do from here to get to recovery? I tried vol- and power and it doesn't work.
Am I supposed to have a certain recovery file on my SD card to initiate the recovery prompt? When I try to do vol- and power from being turned off, nothing happens.
I'd appreciate any help, I have to return to stock to send this phone back and I haven't done this in ages. ;x
I've tried to put recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-espresso.zip as update.zip on my microSD and it still won't work. Fairly certaiin my recovery image is broken, I don't have a nandroid backup, what can I do?
Lol, when you get the screen with the android you have to press Vol up and power at the same time. Try that.
Hi
Recently I tried to install cwm on my Samsung Galaxy Grand. But when I tried to enter recovery mode after flashing cwm recovery using odin, "Recovery Booting...." shows up at the top left hand corner of the phone and will not enter cwm recovery mode.
Below is the steps i did to flash cwm recovery on my phone:
1. Transfered SuperSU on to my phone SD Card
2. Off my phone and entered download mode( Vol Down+Home Button + Power Button)
3. Open up odin v3.04, selected PDA and chose the .tar file, deselected the auto reboot option
4. Click Start and its says "PASS"
5. Removed the battery for 5s and put it back in
6. Tried to enter cwm recovery mode (Vol Up+Home Button + Power Button)
7. Stuck at the recovery booting screen
The phone is still able to work and enter stock recovery when i remove the battery and turn it back on.
Please help me and Thank You for spending your time to read this
