Trying to figure out recovery console problem

I am on MR4 and when I try to boot into Recovery from Clockwork, it goes to a screen with the Red icon indicating it is dead. I have to pull the battery to restart the phone. If I go to Clockwork and reflash the recovery, I can get in, but it only lasts for one restart.
Any ideas?

By "red icon" did you mean a red triangle with an exclamation mark in it?
If so then, what you needed to do to get into recovery from there is press "volume up + power".
It might show an error at the bottom when you do this. If it did, you just have to repeatedly press "volume up + power" until you get some options at the top of the screen and choose "apply update.zip"

Yes - so this has to be done every time? How do I get into recovery just with the phone off then?

From your phone being off, hold down "volume down + power" to get to a fast boot screen (a white screen with android logo at the bottom).
Your phone will be doing some file checking at the beginning of fast boot and it's going to take a minute or two.
Press volume down to reject the two updates. Choose go to Recovery when you can get to it. You'll be taken to the familiar screen with "red icon" from there.
FYI, browsing on fast boot is done by "volume up/down" for navigating and "power button" to confirm choice.

HELP - Stuck at boot screen

Hello,
I was using this ROM UK BlurlessGingerFroyo 4 from Jboogie3.
I accidently deleted a file in \system\app and now my phone stuck at boot.
I tried to use RSD Lite with:
JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_117-002
JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_155-002
JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-3
3.4.3_11-Stock.UKTmobile_BLUR
But all these files I got the same stuck at boot screen.
Any solution, please?
Thanks a lot guys!
Regards,
Ton

I think you can flash any of those and after flashing, when you're stuck, remove battery, insert battery, get into stock recovery (power + vol. down) and wipe data and cache.

I can't enter into stock recovery, if I push power + vol down I see the robot android + white triangle with exclamation
Thanks for reply

I pressed the bottom-right corner of my screen, but I don't get in the Recovery Mode

This is the guide to enter Recovery mode
1、Power off your Phone
2、Long Press the Volume Down Button ,Then Press the power button to power on your Phone
3、when you see the Green Android Robot ，press the bottom-right corner of your screen。bingo！you are in the Recovery Mode Now.
4、the touch screen is full functional.using touch to select menu,press bottom-left conner of your screen where there is show ok button to confirm action.

Everything has been already written. In 2.2 firmwares when you see the triangle with exclamation mark, you need to press vol. up + vol. down and you'll see the stock recovery menu.

[Q] How to boot into CWM recovery from power off?

I've successfully unlocked and rooted, installed Rom Manager and installed CWM recovery. While I can get into CWM recovery from within ROM Manager I can't fiigure out how to do it from power off. Any help greatly appreciated.

Hold volume up + volume down, then press the power button.
You should be in bootloader, with an android on its back and some info in the bottom left corner. Use the volume buttons to scroll through until you get to <Recovery> and then hit power.

I fingered it out. From power down, boot into fastboot mode by holding volume up and volume down and pressing the power button. A Green robot on his back with his chest opened up appears on the screen.
Then use the volume up or down until the green "Start" in the green arrow box is replaced with a red "Recovery mode" in a red arrow box.
Push the power button. The power on splash screen is displayed for a bit and then it enters the blue texted CWM recovery. Know exactly what you are doing in there!

Enter recovery mode

1. Shut down phone.
2. Press volume Up and then hold power button
3. choose recovery (volume up choose menu, volume down enter)
4. android logo with red traingle is displayed
5. hold power button and press volume up
You're in recovery mode
(1-3 can be done with "quick boot" app or similar)

Thanks for this

SM-J600G Stuck in recovery mode

The model is SM-J600G. Everything is as stock. I don't know what caused this problem but the phone boots then for less than a second I see a blue screen with a white android and then it boots to recovery mode.
In recovery mode I cannot select any option. The power button doesn't work. I also see a message that says:
#fail to open recover_cause(No such file or directory)#
#Reboot Recovery Cause is [UNKNOWN]#
Support SINGLE-SKU
Block-Based OTA
Supported API: 3
# MANUAL MODE v1.0.0#
I suspect it was an updated that was not installed correctly (it's not my phone).
I cannot turn off the phone, only reboot it pressing and holding the volume down key. I cannot enter download mode.
Does anyone have an idea to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Update: I think the power button is stuck (not the plastic button but the real button). It seems weird that pressing the volume down key turns off the phone. Also, when I hold press any volume key or the screen, the highlight becomes green, and as far as I know the power button should be pressed so that the highlight becomes green.
