Hi, hopefully somebody can help me. I have rooted my Note 2 and installed CWM via ROM Manager. I have always done it this way with other phones, but this time when I reboot into recovery I have options missing - such as backup and restore. I am also unable to scroll down past any item that is visible.
I have flashed a different version of CWM via Mobile Odin but the problem remains. I have also attempted to install TWRP via Goomanager and Mobile Odin but whenever I reboot into Recovery I go straight to CWM with nothng having changed.
I'd be really grateful if someone can tell me where I'm going wrong. I don't want to flash any other ROM until I can backup my stock.
Thanks for any help!
Download CWM recovery tar (like philz or any other you want) and flash with PC odin for PDA tab

Thank you for replying. I have just done this yet still when I reboot into recovery I'm getting the same problem and there has been no change.
Should I be doing a wipe as well? Or is there something else wrong?
Flashing was successful?
There is no changes in menu of recovery? like you can read philz or something?
what is available menu in recovery?

No change.
Odin said flashing was successful. Recovery looks like this:
Android system recovery <3e>
Volume up/down to move highlight:
power button to select:
reboot system now
apply update from ADB
apply update from external storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# MANUAL MODE #
-- Appling Multi-CSC...
Applied the CSC-code : BTU
Successfully applied multi-CSC.
- and then nothing. this is as far as I can get no matter how or what I seem to flash other recovery.
Thanks again for any help.
This is stock recovery, not CWM
It means odin was not successfull
Can you describe the odin log?
here i repeat procedure
-Download said recovery (http://www.mediafire.com/file/imbzaau34u7ldeg/philz_touch_3.99-n7100-fixed.tar.md5)
-Open Odin and select PDA tab, then point to recovery (above said)
-Put device in download mode (vol down + home +power), then it will ask to press vol up to enter into recovery, do that
-connect device to PC and wait till ID COM port glows
-Flash
Let device boot normally
-Reboot to recovery and check, if it is same then post Odin log here
Thats exactly the process I've been following. Here is a screenshot of Odin following flash:

Really weird
Try wipe cache and data. And re flash.

I've managed to solve by re-rooting this time with pc Odin (last time I used the apk file) - backing up right now!
Thanks again for helping!!

Does this recovery work?
I have flashed the same recovery via rom manager and it just comes up with a black screen
Koush has said he will fix it in the next few days

Can, reportedly, also be gotten through the ROM Manager.

Can you backup your stock Recovery before flashing CWM Recovery?
There's some reports on Koush's twitter that superuser doesn't work on CWM on the Nexus

for me its working well. just made backup and using SU after etc. no issue at all
but i installed cwm from ROM manager instead
How does CWM save/store its ROMS, and where does it load from? With the Xoom, without a working SD, it was not possible to use CWM.
If the onboard storage is all one volume with the OS, is the storage included in the backup, and how is the images written if the storage is needed to hold the ROMS to be flashed?

I'd like to know this too. I found something that would back it up, but you need root first. I'd like to be able to back it up before rooting if possible.

Rooting shouldn't affect the Recovery partition so you should be able to safely root then backup your stock recovery before installing ClockworkMod Recovery?
Or if someone backs up theirs you could download it and keep a copy of it?
Anyone can post here recovery.fstab ?
I have just installed Rom Manager and I get a FC but it seems to have installed the CWM OK. It successfully rebooted to CWM and I could navigate around but I didn't try flashing anything yet.
The issue may be more with Rom Manager than the recovery
Installed CWM just fine, however when i try to do a nandroid backup it says "Can't mount backup path" or when i try to browse for a zip to install "Can't mount /sdcard/".
My first guess is that it is because i encrypted my phone, but i believe it works on my Xoom, which is encrypted as well... (I will check this later when i have my Xoom nearby)
FYI, this recovery also is confirmed working on my VZW LTE version.
Backups are approximately 6-700MB and are ext4.tar files for system, data and cache.
Hey everyone, i'm new here, it's my first post, so please be forgiving just in case
My goal is to install custom ROM, so first I unlocked bootloader via Flashtool. It worked well.
Then I rooted the phone via KingRoot, it also worked well.
The next step I wanted to do was install the custom recovery (TWRP), so I installed TWRP Manager app and it failed
I installed it via Terminal Emulator app following the instructions on the twrp website and it kind of worked, but I can't get into TWRP...
Turning of the phone, holding the volume down button doesn't work. It's just booting the system. How to fix it? Maybe i'm booting to the recovery wrong?
Help me please, thanks in advance. And sorry for my bad english
Terminal Emulator: "su" then "reboot recovery"
OR power on the device and push Volume Up several times. Usually the LED turns blue and TWRP is booting.

So obviously it did not work? I assume you are on stock rom 4.3 - so I would suggest to do it as explained here:
CM13 Nightlies:
PecanCM said:
...
[*]TWRP FOTA recovery is recommended, follow this thread for instructions
Download:
Nightly: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=nicki&type=nightly
Install instructions:
Before you install make sure you are on 4.3 firmware 1st with your bootloader is Unlocked and a cwm/twrp recovery installed. if you haven't installed recovery then flash boot.img from this rom zip via fastboot.
boot into recovery
Wipe data and cache
Flash the rom and gapps zip
Reboot

Another Way could be to flash NUI-Kernel. It has built in the TWRP recovery.
But ATTENTION!!!: Both ways won't let you boot the Stock ROM !!!

Yes, i'm on the stock rom 4.3 by sony. The instructions are saying that I have to boot into recovery which I can't do... I even tried to install recovery by command shell in windows and fastboot, but this screen appeared:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

Have you tried with Flashtool? They say that after unlocking bootloader the official Sony tools won't work anymore. I'm not sure why nothing works for you. So I do erverything under linux environment and don't know how it works with the Windows tools. E.g. I know the behavior of adb shell looks very different under windows.... Maybe someone else has better ideas....!?!
I assume you want to flash cm 13.
First, download the rom. Then open the ZIP file and copy the boot.img into a folder. Then fastboot flash boot boot.img

Then are you able to enter twrp through pressing vol up while boot (led will turn blue)
Will installing cm13 this way be clean or dirty flash?
Im using c1905 4.3
I had a hard time updating my 928F to 6.0.1 via odin,
everytime i start flashig i get fail message from odin and my phone get stuck on dowloading screen,
But after a few tries, watching couple of "how to videos" and a little bit of luck i managed to pull it out.
So lets get started:-
Prerequisites:
1. Stock 6.0.1 firmware from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
2. 7zip from http://www.7-zip.org/download.html
3. Last version of ODIN from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711451
4. TWRP (I mean compatible)
1. First, for best result you need to do a clean flash by doing advanced wipe from TWRP (Dalvik / ART Cache - Cache - Data - Internal storage - System).
2. Unzip the firmware you dowloaded and you should get xxxxxxxx.Tar.md5

"lightbox_close": "Close",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. Rename to xxxxxxxx.tar
4. Unzip it again and you should get that:
5. Rename "Hidden.img" to "Hidden.img.tar
6. Make a new folder and move what you get from last unzip EXCEPT "Hidden.img.tar".
7. Using 7zip,
8. After 7zip finish up, load the new compressed file in ODIN "AP" or "PDA" section.
9. Boot your phone into Dowloading mode and connect it to your PC.
10. Press start on ODIN.
11. Now after ODIN finish flashing and before your phone is rebooting, Enter Dowloading mode again and flash "Hidden.img.tar"
12. Now your phone should start up and install new update in stock recovery.
13. If you got stuck in bootloop, boot in stock recovery an perform a factory reset and wipe cache.
CONGRATULATIONS

IF this helped you by anyway please press thanks.

Hi...will this work for galaxy c7? I got exactly same problem
Hi all,
I have a stock firmware GTN7100 Failing to boot, recovery mode has :
==> E: Failed to mount /cache, /data, /system, /cache/recovery, etc..
==> Download mode is accessible.
I have tried wiping cache partition, nothing.
Before wiping factory reset or flashing Odin, is there a way to recover the data?
Thanks,
You could try flashing TWRP, booting into TWRP, mounting the data partition, and pulling off the data.
You could also use Odin to flash the same ROM but don't wipe data, only cache after flashing.

EDIT: I will try to flash it to the same firmware it has (so I can retrieve the data), how can I check the firmware code exactly?
All I am getting is : kot49h.n7100xxufnl1 (which has no country code)
EDIT2: ADB Sideload is available through Recovery Mode, can I use it to install TWRP for example?
If you can sideload, you could try to sideload the stock ROM.
Are you using the original Samsung USB cable?

I'm using a Belkin one, should be proper right? Not an aftermarket Chinese one I mean.
Which version should I sideload? (How do I check which country the firmware is in?)
I don't want to lose the data (if it is possible to recover)
Just tried through ADB, failed as well with this:

I have found that not all USB cables will work with Odin.
You tried older and newer tar versions of TWRP for the n7100?
You may have no choice but to flash any nl1 firmware for the n7100 unless you know the country code.

I have tried flashing the firmware using ADB Sideload and got the results in the pictures above.
ADB won't always work so you will have to try Odin for a full firmware flash.

Tried the following:
- Odin 3.12 with AP and No Repartition
- Odin 3.12 with AP and Repartition
- Reformat data/factory settings in Android Recovery mode
All failed, seems it is a hardware issue, is there a way to fix the hardware part but recover the data? Or is it all on one chip?
what's twrp ? and how to flash something ? and what's odin? besides i forgot the pin anyone can help ? tyvm in advance
After all these install failures, it looks like the internal memory chip is defective which means the data cannot be retrieved. The data, ROM, etc. are on the same internal memory chip, just stored in various partitions.
Google TWRP and Odin to learn more about them.
Which PIN did you forget? Was it for the SIM or phone?
