Flash a rom like cm7 or anything, maybe you formatted the system

could you put your phone in download mode? if yes, put a stock rom on it, the recovery should be fixed then

didnt mean that it went to recovery when it was using odin for something and i saw in a flash that it said error accesing system
i think something is broke
Whas it rooted/custom kernel/custom recovery?

If you can get it into recovery, your not bricked by any means yet. Don't send it in. I think you may have a fragmented partition. Try flashing the gio ext4 converter which will format (and wipe) all your partitions and turn them into ext4 file system which is what cm7 uses. Then try to flash again. And wait for it to boot. Let us know. Link for the converter is here

Power off the phone and boot into recovery the normal way. Hold the camera button, volume down, and the Power button.

Looks like you will have to odin back to stock, and reroot then. Looks like you got the MIUI that had the nuked recovery... there is a newer one i thought that had fixed this issue. If you need a tutorial on how to go back to stock you can find that here : Unroot/Unbrick Epic 4g
You can also re-flash recovery via fastboot flasher.Or just try reinstalling recovery the usal way via adb.

Where will he get a copy of the MTD Recovery to flash?
OP, what ROM did you go back to? Did you do this by restoring a nandroid? It looks like to get back to MTD Recovery you will need to Odin back to stock with repartition checked then move forward from there since you can't get into CWM. You can try ROM Manager before you go that route, set it for manual flash override, Epic-MTD and clockwork 3.x.x.x and see if it will get you into cwm. If not Odin is the way to go.

No you cant, there isnt an MTD clockwork mod that you can flash... and you dont use ADB on this phone for recovery... its Odin. Otherwise if he reflashed the Recovery through odin he would brick his phone.
And the moderator beats me to it

I'm using the latest lewa from Delanoister for a few days. Suddenly after a reboot I get stuck on the BNC logo. I flash CM7 from MMB and still get stuck on Android text. I wipe data, format system and flash ROMs but still got stuck. What can I do? :crying:
Flashing ROM for more than half a year, first time got stuck on this
I tried Odin, but after that I got bootloop and stuck on the samsung animation. During using Odin I found this as attached

after wiping, finally got into system, but still when I go into recovery, I saw this as shown in attachment. And I tried flashing custom ROMs but can't get into system, only stock ROM flashed through Odin can. Do you know why?
you need custom recovery, root acces, at least android 2.3.x. anld ext4formatter.zip rlthe first time installing a custom rom. you problably miss atleast one.

My procedure:
flash stock ROM (2.3.x) -> boot into recovery and wipe data -> can boot into system -> flash CWM using Odin -> flash ext4formatter.zip using CWM -> reboot and flash PX-recovery -> reboot into PX-recovery -> flash custom ROM (CM7 by MMB)
until the last step everything was fine, but stuck on android text after flashing custom ROM. Maybe I miss rooting? thanks anyway and I will try later
root before flashing CWM
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda app-developers app
Probably a dumb question but how do i boot into TOUCH recovery instead of normal CWM? whenever i boot into recovery it goes to the normal version and i have to install the touch zip in order to use that one,i know their has to be a better way to do this...
Why not just use twrp instead?

tried installing it and then couldnt get into recovery at all now.. i got my rom on,but whenever i try n install any gapps the rom either doesnt boot up at all and i have to reinstall it without it,or like now i cant even get into recovery.. i was using the touch cuz it was the only version working for me...
Its sounds like ur not doing it right. I would just pick up a flashable zip of either recovery and flash it. Works for me i wipe cache n dalvik flash and wipe again idk if u have to do all that but thats what i do and i have no issues

i just want to grab some files! before restore
u will need flash a custom recovery 1st then will be able to backup,
If you were on stock rom , I've noticed during Boot Loop if you flash the Stock rom will not wipe your data only Messages, contacts and Call log will be wiped.
If you follow my way you won't lose any files.
But you can backup everything via adb.

That's a kernel and not a recovery.
Download a recovery in .Tar format.
Flash it the same way you rooted.

Firstly, before anyone can truly help you you need to mention your phone setup such as the Rom you're using, rooted/not rooted, etc.
If you're rooted and have a custom recovery then just wipe your system and dalvik cache partition and flash the same Rom again. All your personal files will still be intact.

Pull yur battery out. Put it back in and go into recovery by holding power + home button + volume up. Release power button on the first bootscreen. Maybe u pressed the volume down.

Hi. Im trying install a new recover with odin. But every try its a fake sucess because when i went into recovery its the samsung recovery and not cmw, but with issues. None of option on recovery work.l, even restart. Ive try it to put a new stock build but it fails :/

Turn off auto reboot in odin ..
Press thanks if you like my work/advice
I was facing the same issue at first when I started fooling around with my phone.
What I did was, flashed cwm recovery 2-3 times and after a couple of times I got my cwm recovery to show up on the phone. Make sure u are following the guide correctly and correct options are tick marked in Odin.
Then you need to flash a fix through cwm recovery that removes the files and prevents stock recovery from overwriting cwm. After flashing this fix, stock recovery doesn't overwrite cwm anymore.
You can find the fix in the forums.
