[Q] Can't get into recovery

Hi everyone!
First of all, thank you for taking the time to read this!
I have tried to do research on my problem but can't solve it...
The problem is that i can't get into recovery to backup my stock rom.
Specs: HTC Wildfire S, marvel A510e, S-on, Bootloader unlocked, Rooted, Radio-7.54.39.28M, Andriod 2.3.5, HTC sence: 2.1, Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 5.0.2.8, Super SU.
I followed the guide: "How to root the Wildfire S with S-ON"on Andriod forums by CafeKampuchia, thumbs up for him, It got me this far but, now I want to do the thing for which I rooted my phone in the first place: Installing a costum ROM. Therefore I want to backup my stock ROM.
When I open in HBOOT (1.09.0099) and select recovery, the phone reboots and i see the HTC screen, this disappears after 2 sec and my screen turns black... (phone is still on beceause the buttons on the bottom are lighted.)
When I boot the normal way and try to boot into recovery trough CWM ROM manager same thing happen. Also flashed this recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213229 Same thing happed...
So how can i backup my stock rom?
Many thanks in advantage!

Yes, debugging is on. and what do you mean with fastboot?
If i open in Hboot, i can open fastboot and flash something. Thats no problem but i can not get into recovery....

settings>power>fastboot-check that too,then CWM and reboot in recovery...there you have option backup and restore...choose that,choose backup..and wait till its done...reboot and you have you current rom backed up...
Hope this help you..if not tell me what recovery version did you flashed
P.S maybe its better to pull out battery when you chck fastboot in settings...power off your phone and pull out batt...then put it in and hold power key and volume down at the same time...then choose recovery

Had some break trough with my phone.. I flashed my stock recovery from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1426611
Now when i opened recovery in hboot it gave the triangle with an ! sign. Than i pushed the power button and it gave me: Android system recovery <3e> with 4 options to chose.
Reboot system now
Aplly update from sdcard
Wip[e date/factory reset
Wip chase partition
And finaly in yellow it said: E: Cant open /cache/recovery/command
So where do i go from here?

I can't get into recovery.. either ways. trough CWM or via hboot.
I just reflashed my stockrom and flashed the following recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213229
This actually made it worse, recovery just kills the phone... So think i'm going to reflash stock recovery again.

Hello!
We have already faced this problem. We cannot find the reason why on some devices CWM is not working. It is characteristic for some devices. The decision is not found yet. We used all known methods for today, and all CWM versions (5.0.2.6 & 5.0.2.8), but are not present result.
Colleagues from 4pda.ru

You might try placing update zip on root of your sdcard and choose apply update from sdcard.
Too bad it doesn't have reinstall packages.

Thanks, to do what exactly? Use it to rename recovery file to update.zip and flash it that way?
CWM is installed, even different versions.. Any damn problem is i can';t get into recovery.
Is there any other way to backup stock ROM besides recovery?!?!?!

Maybe try different versions of superuser and busybox. Use app like titanium backup to check versions.

didn't work I already tried.I want to know what kinds of things relate to recovery，kernel？booting？

factory reset....
Now i was stupid enough to press factory reset in HBOOT.... -_-
After boot the phone keeps loading...
Any opties?

Try Alquez's PG76IMG unofficial cwm recovery. Put it on root of sdcard and boot into hboot. Accept update to install recovery.

Hi!
I have flashed my HTC One X, but it didn't work well so i would back. But i messed it up.. CWM cant see my sdcard/ anymore.. So i cant do a USB fastboot, the windows scripts are failing etc..
Am i Bricked?
Daan

Can u please elaborate? Flashed your OneX?
Your Recovery version?

Hi,
Yes. Yesterday i flashed from RevolutionHD Rom to Leedroid HD. Because Leedroid has errors i went today from Leedroid to MiUI. The same errors(was the backup-.-)
But then i would go back to Leedroid(love it<3). There went "something"wrong, dont know what..
It started with the /cache/ that was not asseble.. now the whole /sdcard/ isn't anymore.. That says CWM.

From where do you get this CWM 5.8.1.8 ? CWM for TP ?
Current version is 5.8.3.1 and the latest with auto-mount usb storage also 5.8.3.1
See : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819

Thanks! But i can't update i think, because my computer doesn't see the oneX..
It doesnt come in android anymore.

Can you goto your bootloader?

Go to bootloader, flash latest test recovery, then you're sorted.

But how can i flash te recovery when i can´t acces te SDcard?:$

U don't need to worry about that. Only your cwm recovery isn't detecting ur sd partition. I doesn't matter, Just goto bootloader, connect to your pc and flash the latest recovery using 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' cmd
I hope you are aware of this.

Did you flash newest recovery with USB fix. If so, you should be able to open sd from out of recovery.
If you didn't flash newest recovery, then try that.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA

Grab the test recovery from cwm thread.
Flash it.
Boot to recovery.
Push your custom rom to sd card via adb.
Reboot to bootloader via adb.
Extract boot.img from your rom and place it in fastboot folder.
Give this command in fastboot :
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Reboot to recovery.
Flash your custom rom by choosing it from sd card.
Reboot.
Let me know if it works or not.

One more tip :
Never wipe the sd card.

i made a thread about this... check it out, it might solve your problem all you have to do is follow the steps from the beginning till the end...

There is no need to manually mount the sdcard, with the latest CWM the usb storage is auto-mount. Boot to recovery, connect the usb cable to your pc, if there is no pop-up, open your "my computer" you will see the HTC Storage is there.

Don't you have a nandroid backup before you flashed that fonts ? If you do have, just restore your backup.
If there is no backup, the best is reflash a stock fonts

System partition not accessible

Hi guys,
I got into a problem trying to test AOKP. So I flashed the stock HBOOT as I was with the CM7r2 to test the rom but when I come back in the recovery I have this message:
ATTN: recovery is in safe mode
this is because the following partition
is not accessible: "system"
Please enter the wipe menu and format system!
If you changed hboot you should choose to
format all partitions (except sdcard)
Afterwards please reboot recovery
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I tried fomatting all partitions but it is stucked on "Formatting /system..."
and even without the sdcard to test
Do you have something to help?
Thanks in advance

if formatting didnt work then flash new recovery then flash back to origanal recovery. if u dont have it already then use 4ext recovery

Thanks a lot jmcclue!
I just flashed CWM recovery and it's functionnal again!
For someone who would meet this problem,
install android sdk
download clockworkmod recovery from the site
flash CWM using fastboot (or easier, use androidflasher)
It's working again!

glad its working again
4ext recovery imo is the best recovery, go to this link, download 4ext recovery updater app, install it then flash recovery from within the app. (if u want that is)

if recovery goes into safemode and or just reboots back into recovery u have to format all partitions except sdcard, if that dont work then reflash recovery or flash different recovery.

what status of your phone bootloader...?
maybe you can try flashing another custom recovery like 4EXT or TWRP
download recovery.img 4EXT or TWRP
place recovery.img file in sdk/ adb folder on your computer
and flashing through FASTBOOT .. with command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
already have 4EXT or TWRP..then you can try wipe/ factory reset before installing rom again...
don't forget to flashing manually boot.img too after installing any custom rom if your bootloader status unlocked but still S-ON..

what du you mean status of your phone bootloader? I have unlocked bootloadern via HTCdev. Thats what you mean?
Havent still figured out if its S-ON. Dont not yet know what Son/off means. Will google it

yap..that's what i mean...
you can see the status of your bootloader when you're turn on your phone with hold volume down + power button then the phone will show up bootloader like locked or unlocked, s-on or s-off, hboot version, radio version, fastboot, recovery etc..
because of your phone unlocked via htcdev unlock..it seems the bootloader is still s-on..
so like what say before about your problem is...maybe you can try flashing another custom recovery like 4EXT recovery tuch or TWRP..choice one
after you have installing new recovery..then you can installing any custom rom but don't forget that you must always flashing manually boot.img too after every installing any custom rom before reboot the rom for the first time...
hopefully this can help..

jizzz... it dosnt seem like i ever gonna get this to work. I did flash the custom recovery 4ext and the cmd-line on the pc did say flash sucsess... But when i tried recovery i just got an white screen with htc-logo. Had to pull out the batteri to boot the mobile up again..
Edit: I got the TWPR working

Now i got installed the custom rom and everething is workin flawlessly (only memory shows 592, shouldnt it be 768?). THX alot for your help

Google a little bit. Part of ram that you don't see is used by android for a kernel to work.
