I recently flashed an unofficial cm9 build from modaco but now I can't get back into cwm to flash the gapps since I forgot too.
Tried to go back into cwm but I only get a split second glimpse of it before it just boots up. I tried to reflash cwm via fastboot but it still doesn't work. Any advice on how to get back into cwm?
Nevermind, a fastboot erase cache and got it to boot. SUCCESS!

hi, I recently rooted my one x and had it been working perfectly, until... I flashed cm9 wit galxy s3 addon pack which works well, but now I cannot boot into recovery to restore my nandroid or change roms.
basicly when I try to boot into recovery it flashes with some script with the rommanager logo then boots into cm9
so could you kind folks either suggest how to get into recovery, or tell me how to flash a rom on my sd card or my nandroid through fastboot thanks!
any help would be much appreciated!

I guess your first option should be to flash the RECOVERY again through fastboot and also erase cache. Then try to get into recovery again. Maybe you can also try the app called "quickboot" from the market and try to get to recovery from there.
So first go to fastboot and
1) fastboot flash recovery "name of recovery".img
2) fastboot erase cache
and then WITHOUT booting the rom try to get to recovery through bootloader
I successfully flashed cyanogenmod 11x last night. I followed the steps and everything works great! The phone boots fine, all features work ok. I had a slight issue of it hanging on the CM logo, but I powered down, booted to hboot > factory reset, and it booted up fine the second time.
Strangely, I don't seem to be able to get into recovery any more? if I go into hboot > recovery it just boots CM. I tried flashing the recovery again using fastboot, as I did when first installing CM, but it still doesn't work. Next I installed Rom Manager, installed the latest CWM, and rebooting into it from there - Still doesn't work.
Any suggestions?
I had the same problem i was flashing the boot.img in the recovery partition. Fastboot flash recovery [recovery.img]
Fastboot flash boot [boot.img]

Hi there. Here I have my t989 with stable cm11 by Sultanxda and twrp 2.7.0.0 installed.
Everything was fine until I wanted to try 5.0.1.
I got into twrp and did the usual wipe and install ParanoidAndroid 5.0. It failed.
Ok stuff happens so I just went restore my backup no big deal.
Now when I reboot back my phone looks as it were before BUT it reboots after 2-3 minutes in every time it boots back up.
So I thought the power button has problem but soon I figured it is not because my phone won't self reboot in recovery and download mode.
I went back to twrp and try to wipe it clean and install cm11 instead of restoring to my previous backup.
Wipe says successful, install says successful, reboot system. And only to find myself still in my old Rom and nothing was wiped.
All my apps are still there blahblahblah. I tried to update my twrp through twrp manager but phone reboot before it finishes installing.
I grab my odiin and try to update recovery there. Odin says success. Goes to recovery only to find its still in 2.7.0.0
Download a stock .tar and flash it with Odin. Odin says success, boot up and still in my old cm11 rom...
Now I went out of option but ask for help. I have done flashing for 3 years with this phone and I have never gotten this problem before.
Please Help
My tab was running stock 5.1.1 rooted and twrp
I flashed the cm-12.1-20160501-NIGHTLY-lt03wifi to check it out, and it was giving me issues so I booted it up in download mode and reflashed P600UEUCNI1_P600XARCNI1_HOME.tar.md5
and now its just sitting at the samsung loading screen .
I cant seem to get it into any type of recovery mode, only download mode.
anyone have any ideas on what i can try to do to get it booting again?
Ok correction i am able to boot into recovery mode.
Ok i was able to get into recovery mode finally..
I reflashed the cm12.1 zip and that is booting.. but still having issues ... it rebooted after doing the initial setup..
I would love to get back to a stock type rom...
You're gonna need to boot into recovery and wipe data & cache.

I was able to get it booting CM again, but i really would like to go back to the stock rom, but flashing it via odin doesnt seem to work, that when i get stuck at the sumsung screen..
now i was thinking this might be because twrp is still the recovery and not the stock. so i need to find the stock recovery to put back and try that i guess
If you're flashing stock firmware, it should replace TWRP with stock recovery.
You're also going to need to wipe data & cache almost any time you are switching ROMs (and definitely if you are switching between stock & CM).

Thats what i thought too about the recovery.img
so you think i should wipe data/cache in trwp then reboot it back to download mode and flash via odin?
Hi guys, having an issue loading into TWRP recovery on my Nexus 5X. I upgraded to 3.0.2 from 2.8.7 (I was having issues with storage not being mounted when trying to flash gapps, so a thread suggested upgrading TWRP).
I flashed the new TWRP with flashboot and it flashed fine, but when I rebooted into recovery it booted my into CM. I have tried a few methods to get it to boot but to no avail. I saw in another post to use fastboot and erase recovery before flashing, that didn't work either. I even tried doing a method using Odin, but my phone won't boot into that download mode either... it just continues straight to CM. Any suggestions? Thanks!
