I think you need to install mono first as you are on Mac.
http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html
---------- Post added at 12:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:11 AM ----------
Here we go,follow the steps :
>Enable USB debugging on your phone and connect it to your mac
>Download SuperOneClickv1.6.5-ShortFuse from here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
>Download "3e_recovery_installer.zip" and "update.zip (1.34 mb)" from here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423
>Run install.bat from 3e_recovery_installer folder.
>Put update.zip (1.34 mb) in your internal sdcard and boot under recovery.
>Select reinstall package option. Update.zip will get installed and phone will reboot.
>Get the actual CWM recovery update.zip (1.72 mb).You can get this using ROM manager.
>Put this update.zip (1.72 mb) in your internal sdcard and boot under recovery. >Select reinstall package option. Update.zip will get installed and phone will reboot and will be back in recovery mode.
>Select reinstall package again you now have CWM recovery.

how did you get in this trouble what is your firmware?
now it seems you don't have 3e problem but 3-buttons problem read above link search in page for "3-button"
try to enter recovery by adb tool
Code:
adb reboot recovery
after this quickly remove usb cable from phone
If you tray to install custom ROM
1. Download from market "ROM Manager"
2. Install "ClockworkMod Recovery" or "AmonRa" (have it into ROM Manager)
3. Go to XDA Search and find your phone into forum and find good custom ROM.
4. Download it and paste it to SD card of your phone
5. Power Off phone and press "Home" button + "Power" button to get into Recovery mod and from them you will be ably to install new ROMs ;]
Thanks
I did.
At this point I just want the phone back to ANDROID Ginergerbread OS and operational.

With ODin.. I loaded two boot loaders over each other...
i9000 and i897 hence why I can not get back into download mode to reflash..

well read this thread as I said i.e. read post #3 and follow instruction this will modify/ patch your recovery so you can access it but you need a Windows machine also you can try to flash back to 2.1 stock rom and follow instructions on post #1 you need a Windows machine...also if you need stock roms for your phone look at
this thread or just enter sammobile and enter "897" as search string you get stock 2.1 rom (you need subscription to download)

I use TWRP because I prefer the interface better. To get CWM however, download Rom Manager from the market and install it through there would be the easiest. If you want to try TWRP, download GooManager and install openscript recovery.

It's actually pretty simple. Download CWM on the Play Store then launch it. Under Recovery, tap "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery". Select your device then tap on Flash ClockworkMod Recovery. Now when you press Volume Up+Home+Power, you should boot into CWM Recovery

flash a root-injected stock rom image via odin, wipe data, cache and factory reset. then reinstall twrp.
And for the future know that i747m is the exact same as ATT's i747.

Yup, yup. i747M is actually the Canadian version of the i747. The i747U is the American version

The i747 and the i747m use different modem basebands (how are they different? Even I don't know), but the two otherwise take exactly the same software just fine.

thing that confused me was that when i tryed to install cwr it gave me the message that i747m is not supported
so now i download the img for at&t from twrp website and flash it thru odin...is this going to fix it?

im trying to find a file so i can flash it with odin

I really don't know other than the basebands... I heard the Tmo version is the same as well (or very similar).

I don't know if anyone really knows the reason why the phones take different basebands. I've long thought that there's a subtle hardware difference between the two phones, but I have no idea what it might be, and no real means to go about finding that out.
i tryed 4 times to install either from goo app or flash with odin twrp but dont seem to work
when i restart my phone holding down home vol dwn pwr it goes in stock recovery
how do i get it to work?
thanks
P.S.maybe one of the difference is that i747M can scan AWS (but only windmobile not mobilicity) what i find really strange

Happened to me before. Use a root explorer on your phone (like ES File Explorer) and delete the following files: /system/recovery-from-boot.p and /system/etc/install-recovery.sh. The next time you reboot, you'll boot to CWM Recovery instead of Android Recovery
cannot find those files and i did installed goomanager and after the script and it said installed but nothing still stock recovery
i looked for the files u mentioned but i cannot find them in system folder
what else can i do to have TWRP ?
thanks

I would follow the method outlined by laserlight. It worked for me also.
After you have the CWM recovery use GooManager to install TWRP. It will replace CWM.

i want to either 1. remove twrp all together so i can install official update or 2nd where to get the update and do it through twrp. where do i need to go. how to install it. also how to install stock android because it is meant to be better and perform better.

Well I think you can just flash stock recovery back before you do that make a backup with twrp and if you have removed system apps or froze them restore them before flashing stock recovery back & then apply the updates if that is successful just flash twrp back

Well you either need to find your stock rom Inc stock recovery if it's not there you could ask for it on the thread & at some point someone might upload it. Take it you never made a stock Backup before unlocking etc.

Not being funny there is plenty of guides on xda to help you. If you don't know if you have s-off you shouldn't even attempt the Adb commands or flashing anything as you could end up with a expensive paper weight. Before you do anything else read the XDA threads on the m8
