what recovery do you use?
second, can you go to recovery through the bootloader? it has a recovery option.

nosympathy wanted to know what recovery you're using: Clockwork or Amon Ra?
Reflash your recovery.

So your problem is only that you can't get into recovery? If it still boots up, then just turn it on and use ROM manager to flash clockwork recovery back on the phone. You should be good to go after that.
I downloaded ROM Manager after I got s-off and root, and it won't let me look at ROMs unless I flash the latest clockwork recovery. I'm using the custom one that came with s-off, so would it be safe to flash to this new one straight from ROM Manager?
Yes. That's what I had to do also. Do you have superuser? There's a file somewhere floating in this forum that installs su. After I installed that I updated the recovery from rom manager and I was good to go.

Here is the patch you flash in recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160745
"Simply install this patch via CWM and reboot. From there you can proceed to run any root apps you need (such as Titanium)."
Ok so I am trying to flash my old sense backup. (Why doesn't matter) I had RA-Recovery but I have to use Clockworkmod to restore the original stock backup. I downloaded Rom Manager and flashed it and it says that is what is running. I have done this several times but everytime I go into recovery it is still on RA. What can I do?
Download the PC36IMG and put it on the root of your SD. Boot into bootloader and when it asks if you want to update say yes. Now boot into recovery and you're in cwm

Thanks. Finally that nightmare is over.
I haven't picked the GN yet but definitely thinking about it. I'm not understanding the cwm on the GN. I am coming from the Droid incredible and when i rooted it I could automatically get in the cwm on it. But I'm seeing that you have to flash the cwm for the GN. How will I go about doin that. Thanks. Sorry for the dumb A** question. Lol. But if i do get this phone I will be very new to it. I understand everything about the cwm and how it works but i didn't understand having to flash it on the GN. Thanks.

If I recall correctly I installed CWM through rom manager. To keep it from getting overwritten each boot I had to use root explorer to rename the stock recovery file and that was it.

Oh ok. So u didn't have to flash it on your GN

If you want CWM you will have to flash it, either through Fastboot or ROM Manager. Likely on your Incredible the root process you used also flashed CWM for you.

Buddy rooted his phone via

He asked me to help him install CM10 rom..
No problem I thought
Had him install Touch recovery via goo-manager, rebooted into recovery and wiped data/cache blah blah, install .zip file and gets an error
every CM10 based rom gives some sort of error
"assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "d2att" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "d2att" e:Error in /emmc/cm-9-20120720-NIGHTLY-d2att.zip (status 7)

Yes. Instructions can be found with a quick search.
Download mode -> ODIN to stock -> Put ClockworkMod recovery on SD -> Install CWM using stock recovery -> Happy flashing!

No. You don't use ODIN to flash cm10. Error 7 happens because of outdated recovery. Download ROM manager from the play store, install cwm through it and after its installed ...boot into recovery and flash cm10.

Ok, did it, and got the green pass light on odin and had him go back into recovery and ONCE AGAIN, back into the STOCK recovery.
I'm losing my mind with frustration!
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Also, why doesn't this work?

He rooted it I wasn't there when he did it.
It sure seems rooted it.. Super user is there and I already flashed a rom
But again, every CM10 based rom gives some sort of failure
and his recovery goes back and forth on its own from CWM to stock, its very strange
What recovery version does he have?

The one from goo-manager
Whatever goomanger puts on there.
The problem is, if he loads goo manager, tells it to download the recovery and reboots into recovery the recovery will there.
If he reboots a few times and then goes and reboots into recovery it will revert back into the stock recovery.
WTF!! lol
All you need to do is to install ROM manager from the play store and from it you can install the latest cwm recovery easily.

Yes, we installed Rom manager and when he clicks "flash clockworkmod recovery" he gets an error
I gotta wait till he gets home so he can tell me what the error is again
thanks
Ok I forgot, he doesn't get an error message when he goes to install the clockwork recovery via rom manager, he gets a message that he has to choose a phone and in that list there is no GSIII
which model should he choose ? THANKS
Yea so ok, something is seriously screwed here,
I had him flash the CWM recovery the third on this list
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28612095&postcount=558
Had him reboot into recovery and flash that zip, it was successful, I had him reboot into recovery from the touch recovery that we installed from goo-manager and he was indeed in the CWM recovery
Had him reboot the system, then again reboot into recovery from rom manager and sure enough it reboots into the stock android recovery.
Something is seriously wrong here.
I am totally at a loss
It has something to do with the flash counter. Since I'm not sure about it I would have him re root his phone using the toolkit and flash a recovery with the toolkit and see what happens.

Are you trying to root a kies/ota update? Canadian carriers put in an install script that removes custom recovery at every reboot.
Look for install.sh in the root of the phone's file system.
