Initially CWM was installed fine via Rom Manager but now I can't do *anything* in rom manager. None of the options work, not even the override setting (I have CWM installed already) This wouldn't be a huge issue but I wanted to download some roms away from the computer and experiment a bit.. I was wondering why this would be occouring as it doesnt seem like normal behavior.
I click flash CWM and it gives me the little loading symbol for a few seconds..
I do the same for Override.. same thing happens
None of the other features will work because it doesn't detect CWM

I would suggest reflashing CMW through Rom Manager. Make sure you select the right version for your device GSM or CDMA as this will cause huge issues!!!
I can't flash it.. it just gives me the loading circle for a second and does absolutely nothing at all. CWM works fine outside of rom manager.. rom manager isn't working correctly. I am a little worried that this a symptom of a larger problem though.
do u have root permissions?
do u give rom manager root permission when supersuser ask u?
did u treid uninstall and install again rom manager?
Don't want to sound like an ass, but you did both unlock and root your phone, right? When you enter ROM Manager, does it ask you for superuser permission?
absolutely, I even double checked =) I am not entirely fresh to rooting phones. I have rooted, unlocked (and even flashed custom roms) I have gone back to stock.. and done the whole process again (JUST to make sure) it doesn't matter what I've done so far though.. the problem still persists.
Rom manager doesn't even ask for superuser permissions, unless rebooting into recovery (surprisingly it does this fine)

Wow, I thought it was just me. Rom Manager just did this to me last night also. I've been rooted and flashing rooms on my gnex since Feb and had no problems. This just happened to me last night out of nowhere. Wasn't even flashing anything. It doesn't even shows that I don't have recovery flashed anymore.
Weird.

Alright, I figured out my problem. Don't know if it will help you.
I forgot I downloaded the CWM touch .img but decided I wasn't going to do it. I forgot to delete the .img file from the root of my SD. I deleted it and and than rom Manager went back to normal and let me reflash recovery.
Hope this helps.

I was running stock rooted G.B. 2.3.6 and just to see what would happen (I kinda knew already) I did the official upgrade to the ICS 4.0.3. Of course it went from UVKL1 to UVLE1 and I had backed everything up with Titanium Backup and also with Rom Manager. I lost root, because I did a factory reset because it wouldn't install the first 2 times. Oh, I was doing it through Kies. I wanted to do it by the book sort of.So after the install I tried to get root again but when I got into CWM recovery I had no functions working except reboot. No update.zip from sd, or anything else. I could scroll up and down and stop on the different options but when I pushed the button to make the choice it jumped back to reboot and that is all I can get. I rebooted and retried 4 or 5 times and same thing. So, now what ? I like the 4.0.3 but hate the massive amount of bloat and the ads and f**ked up notification popup/ads. I want my root back. I would be willing to start fresh again with a good, fast, everything works, custom ICS but don't know which to choose. that is one of the reasons why I tried this "official" upgrade. Again, as always, Thanks in advance for everyone who helps anyone here on XDA. K.K.-Out

Thanks ToledoG28, I tried that link and it wasn't a good page. I appreciate the effort. Maybe you could double check it and let me know.
OP: Here's CWM 5.0.2.6. After flashing and once youre back into your phone, you can install ROM manager and upgrade to whatever you want. Push this via Odin.
This happened to me. I had just had to wipe the cache in recovery and it booted. I would try that first
You have to use darkside wipe and darkside cache wipe. The regular recovery wipe isn't working properly.
You just need to Odin ics.

Guys he can't get into recovery. How can he flash super wipe etc if he can't? And how will odining ics fix that? He needs to odin the recovery i posted.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA
I got it solved you guys. Thanks to all of you. I did another factory reset, and then found the actual T989 Hercules .tar file (the one I used was from a post for ICS from November or December and was actually an Infuse tar file.) and reinstalled it. I was able to after I got cwm recovery old style not touch. Touch was what was giving me problems. So I Odin the new Hercules.tar and then rereinstalled Superuser zip and everything went smooth. The only thing I am seeing as a problem is the phone won't sleep. If I have the phone plugged in, I can't shut it off. It wants to immediately turn itself back on. I like to have it shut down and charge at night sometimes. But it won't let me. Any ideas? Thanks again everybody.
I just upgraded to JB, and like most of you, I've been adding things to it, mostly through CWM. The problem is, the recovery partition is (kinda) broken. Let me explain.
If I turn off my GNex and reboot it to Fastboot then use Fastboot to go to Recovery mode, or even try to boot to it from ROM manager, I get the "android on his back with his panel open and a <!> floating over him" icon. I have to pull the battery to get past that. From there, if I use the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit to flash a recovery, it will boot to it, but even if I reboot immediately, I get <!> again. If I flash CWM from ROM manager, it will work, but again, only that one time. It's like something in the shutdown process is breaking recovery.
I tried it with CWM, CWM Touch, and TWRP. Same problem.
Am I alone in this?
Is there a fix?
This happened to me after I flashed stock JB. I then flashed bigxie's rooted deodexed Rom and my recovery sticks
I am on Team Liquid vicious v2 w/ franco 200 kernel. it has been very smooth and I have been able to boot into recovery seamlessly.
I am assuming you already have root. Just go to the /system folder then rename recovery-from-boot.p to something else and cwm will stick
I've got the same problem from time to time.
Suddenly CWM is away and I have to reflash it.
Can I fix this by deleting the .p file mentioned?

Kinda weird that it's from "time to time" because if that file is there, then it should bring you back to stock recovery every time after you use your newly flashed temporary recovery. Yes, rename/delete that file and it should stick.

Ok I'm really irritated right about now. I am unable to flash any custom ROMS on my phone. Actually let me rephrase, I can flash them but many things do not work. I have tried Wicked, FreeGS3 and CapROM. They all have the same issues. Let me explain.
Once the ROM is booted I get odd string of numbers and TXT in the status bar, (goes away, think nothing of it)
Root not avail/accessible by root apps.
Home button does not work
Play store missing
standard Google login prompt at first boot is missing, it never asks me to login

I don't get it. I am i just stuck using stock ROM? If anyone can help I would love you forever.
are you clearing /cache and dalvik-cache before you reboot to the custom rom?

If you mean clearing those after the install (in recovery completes) then no. Basically after the install I just reboot. Obviously clear and reset everything before I install though.

I use TWRP and have no problems.
Do a Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, fix permissions.
If that doesn't work, flash stock and reroot and try again.
I use touch recovery 5.8.4.7 and flashed it with adb. I've flashed almost everything. Cyanogenmod and every other ROM. NEVER had a problem with an instalation. Or even lost IMEI. I think people specifically aren't reading over OP's and figuring out what's safest for their devices and end up with these kind of results. Just my input.

Use mskips tool for our phones. It does everything you can image and then some. I have been using his tools since the HD2 and no issues to date.
The odd string of numbers that flashes upon boot in the status bar sounds like it's just identifying your external sd card. Totally normal.
OK so nothing worked. TWRP did the same thing. Tried diff ROM, same thing. I flashed back to 100% stock, unrooted ROM. Wiped the phone in the standard Android recovery. Then I rooted again, installed TWRP and flashed my ROM of choice and voila. Everything works. Problem solved. Thanks all for the inputs.
I'm hella sick of the stock android os and all the stock modded roms and want cyanogenmod for my note II... It should be possible lol

yeah I'm hella pissed that ClockWorkRecovery is a worthless piece of crap on the NoteII unlike my Atrix where it worked fine. When I go into cwm and go to clear data it restarts and I charged to 100% and it still restarts. One time it didn't restart and I backed up my current rom and it was successful. I forgot to backup with titanium back and so I cleared data and restored my original backup prior to clearing data to install cm10 and upon reboot it was like a stock rom i think the hybrid and the camera didn't even work. So it cleared all my personal data and didn't restore ****. I'm so mad now I have to do a whole bunch of work to get it back to normal.
What's up with CWM for Note 2? Why doesn't it backup EVERYTHING like my ATRIX and HTC HD2 would do no problem...
Now I can't clear data since everytime I do it, it restarts every single time... CWM - based recovery v6.0.1.4-jb Modify by xiaolu
Can I flash a better working version that actually works and backup correctly and restores all data...?
Use TWRP. It's much better.

Phone wont boot at all?
The best way to get twrp is to download goo manager from the Playstore and install it from that app. (Recovery script option)
Sent from the Bacon Pope's Galaxy Note 2
It hangs on the Hybrid screen forever so i just now install cm10 with no wipe data just to get into the os so i can copy the right files to the internal sd card for twrp etc
So now i can't get it to work at all it just hangs on the CyanogenMod screen. Does TWRP work with ntfs cards in recovery?? I hope so. Because it's stupid how it can mount usb storage and see my ntfs sd card on my pc but then i can't browse to install zip it says cannot mount. When It just got done mounting it to the pc and it worked fine.
Anyway now I'm screwed can't do anything except maybe format my 64gb sd card and I really don't want to do that.
Twrp accepts adb. You can push files to it if youre stuck in twrp.

TWRP doesn't even work I did exactly as it says here on the site :
Install using your existing recovery like you would any other zip.
Reboot and select TWRP from the boot menu.
There is no menu upon boot what the hell are they talking about? I hold volume up, menu, power and I see the Teamwin then it restarts ..... WTF?!?

I flashed back to cwm6-root-note2.tar and i Can At least get into recovery without it messing up and restarting like Worthless TWRP does. Anyway when I go to clear data the phone Restarts...
Don't install from cwm. I think you got it working. But I would Odin flash stock and start over. If you still have issues I would say your phone has something going on. But if you can't prove it, att won't trade. And flashing incorrectly(not official Samsung software) isn't allowed lol

So let me get this straight.
Your pissed because:
A.) Free CWM isnt working to your liking
B.) Free "lame stock modded rom's" are lame
C.) You've been here for 2 years and cant find where the AOSP Roms are
Sorry your free stuff doesnt bend over backwards for you
In another thread...complaining about the same thing...he says he got TWRP working. Didn't respond to my question as to what he did yet though. But the negative attitude towards something going wrong isn't going to solve the issue. Relax. Remember that both CWM and TWRP have disclaimers that if you don't know what you're doing and you screw your phone up during the install, you do it at your own risk and they're not liable, especially when many of us have installed CWM and TWRP many times in different devices without problems.
For me to get my phone working had to re-partition with a pit file for my sgh-i317 then installed stock rom then went to stock recovery cleared data etc then flashed twrp and install jellybeer cm10 which is working great.
Hello. I'm sorry to hit the ground asking a question but . . . ..
incredible 2. used clockwork recovery. rooted the phone. superuser installed. I have ROM Manager installed, and now rom toolbox lite. I downloaded cm-7.2.0-vivow and it is in the root of the sd card.
Now when I try either rom manager OR toolbox lite, i tell it to reboot to recovery and there it sits. forever.
has anyone else had this happen, and does anyone know of a fix?
battery is fully charged and otherwise phone works as per usual.
Many thanks to anyone who might be able to shed some light.

Are u on the stock ROM? A lot of times sense hangs and won't reboot the phone. I've encountered it on mine n my girls vivid. Just manually reboot. Also for the love of the phone install 4ext recovery. Easy simple n works super functional on our older phones. 4ext.net.
