[Q] Clockwork mod keeps freezing during backup! how to fix it?

i was on the gingerbread leak, but got tired of it cuz its not completely stable, and i had clockwork mod 3.1.0.1 and it worked fine. i flashed back to ec05, froyo, and flashed clockwork mod 3.1.0.1 and it keeps freezing. i have ran error checking on my computer and re formated it in android and no luck. keeps freezing in the same spot! do i need to try a different clockwork version?

I have never had that issue, but how long are you giving it to run the backup? Also, why did you need to re flash cwm? Are you using rom manager or 3 finger boot to get into recovery? Here is a link to the acs recovery which is a modified version of cwm 4. If you install it you will have acs recovery on 3 finger boot and whatever recovery that is included with your kernel (probably cwm 3.1.0.1) via rom manager still.

it would run perfectly smooth on gingerbread. and it gets stuck on backing up system on file #11596 or something like that, and clockwork doesnt have an offical recovery for my phone so i have to use odin to flash a recovery. so i use the 3 finger boot. ill try the acs recovery and see what happens. if not ill have to go back to 3.0.0.5, which is the one that came with the rom.

Installed CWM, but I don't have the options for flashing internally

I flashed CWM via Odin and rebooted into Recovery Mode, but there is no option to flash a mod or tar from internal storage. I have 5 options in my CWM menu and they are as follows.
reboot system now
apply update from external storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
I have the mods loaded on the root of my internal storage, but CWM wont let me get to them.
I tried flashing a stock recovery via Odin, failed.
I can turn on my phone and it works just fine, but I cannot get CWM to let me root the phone.
Any help?

Are you sure you flashd clockwork mod and not stock? It sounds like stock recovery is what you have. try flashing this in
Odin https://dl.dropbox.com/u/16085428/CWM-6.0.1.2/recovery.tar.md5

Sounds like stock recovery to me not clockwork recovery

This kind of happened to me, I have rooted plenty of devices prior to my SG3 and with CWM flashed through Odin 3.04 (Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time) checked. Everything passed as it should have and phone reboots normally. Upon powering down i went into recovery finding the stock recovery still there, NOT CWM's recovery.
Doing some research I found that if you check ONLY F. Reset Time and NOT Auto Reboot you will flash the device with a PASS and then the Download mode screen will stay on the device. Making sure that you have the USB cable removed at this point remove the battery. Replace the battery and reboot into recovery mode and you will see that your phone goes into Clockworkmod Recovery! BUT you only get this once, you have to repeat the steps using ODIN to flash CWM every time you want to use it, what a pain in the butt, especially if you do not have Triangle Away. I belive this is because of the new OTA update from Sprint (so I've heard).
Now i have the same kind of issue because apparently when i run CWM's ROM manager it says i have no CWM recovery installed after i have done it counless times.
Has anyone ran into this use as well? OP is this kind of the same issue you have? at the top of your Recovery screen it will tell you clear as day if you are using the stock recovery or CWM.

I say take the guessing out of it...Use TWRP

[Q] {Q} HELP!!!

I used a root method on youtube today. SuperUser wouldn't work because the binary wasn't installed. So I tried to reboot and go into recovery, then I backed up and erased the data etc. So it failed on the AOKP rom that i was going to install then it wouldn't let me restore. So using ODIN fastboot i flashed over CWM 5.5.0.4. I think one of the new CWM recoveries has USB Storage Mount but on there website the zips only come in .zip and not .tar so I can use odin to flash it over. When I try to flash the stock ROM (.TAR) (619MB) through odin it fails. Someone please help me

[Q] TWRP and CWM

I have both recoveries installed on my d2att, but everytime I reboot into Recovery, TWRP shows up. But I actually need CWM. How can I replace or set CWM as default? I have flashed CWM through ROM Manager but TWRP still appears on my reboot screen. What do I do?

Try flashing Philz Touch Recovery via Odin.

Try using the method to install cwm in this thread.

[Q] Recovery not working.

Redmi 1s.. v45 rooted.
I have TWRP 2.8.0 recovery. I can enter in the recovery. But...
1) can't install any zip(tried to install zip of stock recovery and cwm. It shows successful but again boots in twrp recovery)
2) can't backup(it shows backup is successful but no folder or file is created as a backup)
3)tried fixing root permission... But it takes forever to complete the process)
If this can be fixed plz help...... Other thing i did is...
I tried to flash rom in fastboot...
Using Miflash.... An error is displayed.... Can't flash the rom too.
Thanks

There's some problem with the recovery i guess. Try using fastboot recovery to flash the latest version and an rom

Solved
I installed CWM recovery via fastboot. Now everything is fine.:angel:
But in TWRP I used to see "simulating actions" while performing backup or installing zips.
Didn't get that.

Cwm touch recovery
Everytime im tryig to backup rom , via cwm , it says cant mount backup path.. I installed stock recovery updating via updater then formatted my internal sd , flashed cwm again,, tried back up again didnt work.. Any help?

I had problems with Custom Roms in CWM but for me TWRP worked well. But you can try Philz recovery.

Hope this will solve your problem.

Solution
I had exactly the same problem.
It turned out that the problem is in the TWRP settings. Uncheck the Simulate bla...bla...bla...
