I'm stuck in CWM Recovery and or download mode - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I tried flashing cyanogenmod 10 and I got (status 7) I already wiped my phone so I have no ROM
advice on what I should would be appreciated.

If you have an external sd card, you can put whatever you want to flash in there try again.

Of indeed you DO happen to have a micro sd card, when you put the rom/gapps on it, place this on it too. It's the most recent cwm touch recovery. Flash it, reboot recovery and flash your rom/gapps with no problems.

If you DONT have a micro sd card, you can put the phone in download mode and flash stock via odin from your pc

Desire keeps on rebooting over and over

Hello there
I was about to flash a new Rom and before doing that I partitioned with Rom Manager the SD.
I also formatted the SD Card with Rom Manager.
From that moment on I was not able to restart into recovery mod any longer from Rom Manager.
I then decided to restart in bootloader to do a full wipe to factory reset.
From that moment on when I try to start the phone, I get stuch to the HTC Logo/Custom image logo and it keeps on booting over and over again.
I simply cannot access the phone. What can I do to fix that?
Thanks in advance
Update
I removed the battery for some time ( 30 mins) and was then able to reboot in bootloader. ( Power + back )
I headed to recovery but I am now stuck again with the phone and the red triangle...
I then use power+vol. + and get to system recovery but I just have:
-Reboot system now
- apply sdcard update.zip
- Wipe data/factory
- Wipe cache...
and nothing seems to work...
Any Idea?
Surely this is just because you wiped your memory card?
Yes I did. I am not 100% sure as I panicked a little bit probably and now I do not remember correctly but it was suggested a full wipe so I did it.
How can I now sort it out?
Did you copy the stuff from your sd card before you wiped?
Yes I did a nan back up and copied it all
Have you copied it all back? Just go to apply sdcard update.zip and the clockworkmod recovery shoud be there.
I could not copy it all back because after I started the whole process I could not access the phone anymore and even now, if I plug it to the PC it does not get recognized by it
okay download this:
http://koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-bravo.zip
Put it on your sdcard. Then go to the recovery menu you were on and click apply sdcard update.zip and you have the old clockworkmod recovery. If you also put a rom on the sd card you will be able to flash it over and will get a new rom. That should fix the problem!
Ehi Taylor I tried what you suggested and it worked!
Thanks so much for your help, I really appreciate it!

need help, partitioned SD card for ROM and...

everything is gone. I followed steps 1-5 and nothing worked. then I read the part about "must have SD partitioned using amon-ra recovery" which I did and now everything is gone! nothing on my SD card and no ROM. what do I do???
DIRECTIONS COPIED BELOW, NOT MINE JUST COPIED AND PASTED
*Must have sd partitioned and using Amon-Ra Recovery!! Link Below to the correct one to use. Rename to PC36IMG.zip
Place PC36IMG.zip on root of sd card, then power off phone and hold the vol- and power button down until hboot loads. It will automatically scan for this and ask you to flash it, flash it and then boot into recovery to assure it worked.

Partitioning ur SD card formats ur card, u should have made a backup on ur PC beforehand. Sorry for ur luck. Just redownload whatever rom u want and place it on ur SD card and flash like normal.

wait..so was your SD partitioned? installing a custom recovery will not partition it for you.
you should have a recovery installed, copy your sd to the computer (to save everything as partitioning will erase it), partition using said recovery, install ROM

Your supposed to backup everything to pc then partition in recovery then while in recovery select usb ms toggle and enable it then transfer everything back to sdcard then flash rom

You only need to partitioned your sd once. Place the rom zip on the root of your sd card. In recovery wipe everything, But the sd card (as this is where your rom is). Choose flash zip from sd. Let it do its thing. Then reboot. You should be good.

1)Go here and follow these instructions.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158993
2)If youve done that,then go to your bootloader,you should be able to get there from your recovery,if not turn off your phone,then turn it back on while holding down on your volume rocker,you will go to the bootloader.
3)Once in bootloader,scroll to hboot usb,make sure you have HTC sync installed on your pc.
4)Once your phone connects to your pc,open it up and you will be in the root of your sd card,go here.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715938&highlight=Dark+Tremors+A2SD and install this.
5)before you have installed DT's Apps2sd,create new folders on your sd card,drag and drop the rom of your choice onto your sd card also.
6)Now go disconnect from your pc and reboot into your recovery,wipe everything but your sd card and install the new rom.
You should now be golden.

[Q] no os installed !are you shure you want to reboot

rooted my phone sgn2 and installed twrp downloaded jelly thunder blackout to my sd card fowllowed steps,dalvc wipe,cache wipe ,wipe system and then i flash jtbo rom and it failed. i got a bad download and im not shure what to do.any help would be appriciated . and i have every thing backed up.
If you made a Nandroid before flashing just restore it. If not and you have an external sd card shut down the phone and remove the sd card and use a computer to dl a rom and put it on the card. Put the card back in the phone and boot directly into recovery and flash rhw rom. If you dont have a ext sdcard then there is probably a way to adb push a rom to the internal sdcard with a computer but you'll have to google that one, , I'm a little rusty on adb. Another option is trying to reboot to bootloader and flash a stock rom with odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...ter - [ATT / Bell / Telus / Rogers / Sasktel]Link for odin instructions and roms.

sometimes you just need to reboot back into recovery. Just last night after wiping with TWRP I got "Failed" message when trying to flash the best international stock ROM. I simply reboot the phone back into recovery and then it flashed fine.

[Q] Without usb, how do I wipe everything and flash a new rom?

I do not have access to a pc with usb, so I realize that cuts out the easiest way to do this. I have CWM Recovery Touch 6.something installed. When using the phone I can download the zips off my network then reboot into recovery to flash. What I want to do is wipe EVERYTHING, then somehow get the zips back on to the sd card and flash so the thing is completely fresh. Is this possible?

You should be able to format the SD card, then download the ROMs/zips and then format data. This will leave the SD card in tact and wipe everything else.
Mobile Odin
Rom Manager
Install the ROM Manager app. I believe you can choose to clear the cache and wipe it clean with the push of a button or two.

[Q] Need ADB sideload

Hello.
I have problem with my phone, i format all memory, and now i have no recovery or any rom to flash it,from what i know and read, only option for me is ADB sideload rom to phone, cause like now i can only go in fastboot, flash new recovery, that it.
The problem is, i think only twrp have ADB sideload function, and .......i can't use it, touch don't work in twrp, volume up/down also do nothing. is there any other method to put rom on card in phone ? Also i can't connect phone to my pc, for some reasons computer don't see my phone, i'm able to flash new recovery through cmd, but can't make pc to see phone as usb mass storage. So now i stuck. anyone have something similar ? And figure out how to put rom in memory card ?

How in the World you managed to do so???
Erasing recovery???
Well, I never used ADB push. The easiest way is to flash Philz recovery again, mount sd card and copy the ROM.zip to sd card.
And why double posting problems. Old thread is only 3 days old
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582565
Flash this recovery
https://www.dropbox.com/s/yqzlpqo8illa53j/Philz recovery 5.15.9.img
And do whats been told. Mount the sdcard in the mounts and storage menu. Wait a couple of minutes (yes literally minutes) it will pop up !
And if you did search the twrp thread (touch not working) you would have found the repacked 2.4.0.0 -JB twrp recovery. It's been discussed there many......many times !

i can't do it cause in recovery i can't mount phone as storage so i can't put rom on it. having only recovery give me nothing if i'm not able put rom in phone. if problem will be only recovery, then i wouldn't bother you guys. my main problem is that pc don't see phone, all drivers are installed, yet nothing works.

And on @Mr Hofs work but on 5.15 you must to wait 2-4 minutes to mount the sd card. Wich ROM are you try for the first time I ever heard for Error7 when you copy the rom to sd card unmount the same and disconect the phone from computer while the installation.

i try viper, cm11,project x revolution, always had error 7
i put rom on sd card in phone, flash boot img, shut down, disconnect cable, boot in recovery, wipe and stuff, install rom, error 7, i never disconnect cable during installation, i even don't touch phone more than i need to.
Its the recovery i guess. Have you tried this.....rom is now on the phone so that problem is done. Flash the 5.15 recovery and install the rom.zip.......spit out ideas and thinking out loud.....these are all things to test.
