So I got root. Ran Clockwork Mod. Backed up to the SD card. Rebooted.
Now I'm stuck between the Clockwork recovery screen (if I power/camera/volume down) and another apparent recovery screen (regular power on) that says in blue "Android system recovery (2e)" and at the bottom, in yellow, "# Manual Mode #" . . .
I'm not able to get out of these two screens. I've pulled the battery and the card, chosen the "reboot" option, chosen the "restore" option (CWM), etc.
Can anyone help me get my phone working again?
Thanks in advance!
I would odin back to stock if you can get into dl mode
Can you reflash your ROM in the CWM? If not then Odin or Heimdall would be easiest then restore your backup.
Thanks guys. I used Odin - lost all my data (which I was of course trying to avoid), but got my phone back.
So, I've learned 2 valuable things here:
1. I was able to get root (sort of).
2. I was able to recover my phone (but not my data).
Does anyone have an idea as to how I got stuck in that loop in the first place - and, more to the point, how I can get past it so I can actually use my phone after I get root?
Although I'm very busy (work full-time, school full-time), I'm willing to make a reasonable donation to someone who's able to spend a little time to get me off and running.
Use odin to install something thats pre rooted like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1221614
Your situation is kind of unique. But as mentioned above Odining a prerooted ROM will help. Didn't you say you backed up before all this happened? Why did you lose your data? Root and restore.

Thanks, I did get most of my stuff back. I'm still kind of a n00b at this, so it wasn't apparent until I started looking for it. I thought it was gone because my apps were, and I hadn't yet reupped gmail, so my contacts list wasn't apparent. In the end, other than having to remember all the apps I wanted to get back, the only real disappointment was that I lost my place in the game Big Time Gangsta, so I had to start over. I was up to level 53!
In reality, though, the only thing that was super important to me, my contacts, came back. So I'm a pretty happy camper. I was also able to Odin up that rooted Gingerbread and, to top it off, I now have a free tether hooked up and working - my rationale for rooting the phone in the first place.
I do appreciate everyone's help. Sure I'll be back with more questions!

Not yet rooted - stuck in manual mode
I was in the beginning stages of rooting, couldn't get anything to happen when I was in Downloading mode. I then booted with Vol Down-Camera-Power, and I can't get OUT of it. I have no OK button, and the Camera button isn't working to reboot/select. Please help!!!

Phone was being used by an employee but I had rooted it and was running Skyraider very happy with it. The guy left and took the memory card. I had to do a reset to get his gmail out of the phone but I forgot to do it through recovery and did it from the phone menu. Now the phone will not do 3g or internet and when I go into recovery I get cwm 5.xxx but none of the functions will work, I just get the hat with the circle and have to pull the batt to get out of it. Tried Rom manager and it just Fcs, Tried unrevoked and it never saw the phone.
Im stuck and need to get this thing working for work. Please help
To select options in recovery, use the optical button not the power button.
Damn using the Incred2 all this time I forgot about that button. Any idea if doing a reset from the phone menu would cause the lack of internet.

That's fairly unusual but I've never performed that within the rom. You should be fine once you wipe and flash another rom.
maybe the guy turned off the mobile network. You could always flash a new ROM or reflash the current one and have everything back to normal hopefully
So I thought I would give up my inexperienced life of flashing and possibly bricking my device(sent it in to get jtag repaired), so I attempted to put it back to stock. I got odin up and running, Downloaded(for the most part) the tar that would make it stock again. about 98% into the flashing it failed and made me a little nervous. I later remembered to flash the kernel, and with it, the phone booted up. Fine and dandy one day yadda yadda yadda.
Now comes day 2, and it just randomly turned off and booted again. it got to the little android boot screen, then shut down again, rinse repeat at different times of the boot process, add in some random shutdowns when I'm at the home screen and using my phone and there you have it.
I figured it was using an unfinished stock rom trying it's best to function, so I tried to put in clockwork mod. I did, but it was very difficult as I navigated through clockwork recovery, the phone would select things on its own, making the rooting process a giant pain. With that monkey on my back, I managed to root and install the juggernaut v.5 rom(which totally rocks) to see if the probably persists. The end result was it still happened, but when it didn't, I was able to work with it normally. At this point in time, I am trying to keep my phone turned on because if for a second the screen shuts off, the phone will start trying to shut itself down and game over. This is still very very annoying and was wondering if you fine people would happen to point someone thats green as grass with this stuff in the right direction

You have definitely earned my thanks for providing such hearty solutions! I am super paranoid now when it comes to downloading files like those. my major concern is if the files never download completely :O I followed what was in that first thread to tooth, and as I installed that md5 towards the end I got a giant fail. regardless, I thank you for the awesome support man:good:
Hmm, try reflashing your recovery. Mount your USB (If you cant, take out your SD card, and mount it on your PC) and place this file on the root of your SD card( Just easier to find this way)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/darksidetools/files/SGH-T989_ClockworkMOD_5.0.2.7.zip/download
Flash it, and restart recovery. Your recovery should act normal, and do a clean install of whatever ROM you wish. By the way, Juggs was my first DD (daily driver) to!!

Lol, no its CWM 5.0.2.7 or aka, CWM non-touch, I got that link from TDJ's OP, he so kindly provided us a link for it. From your OP, it sounds like CWM did not flash correctly, you can flash a recovery within a recovery, you just have to restart it or reboot your phone for it to take into effect. Do you have the T989 or T989D?
lets see

Did you do a clean install? Darkside Superwipe, flash ROM, reboot, wait ten minutes, then reboot?
Sent from AOKP Goodness :-D
Yeah unfortunately it is still randomly rebooting....washing lol
An update to this: all the same symptoms occur, but for some reason when I flashed darkside rom 3 the symptoms occurred less! For example, last night I was able to use this device for 4 hours straight without it acting up. I really wonder what the problem is. I. Mean the thing acts like an angel when in Odin mode, but when it comes. To cwm or anything else it tends to spaz out.
I too have this happening now. I don't know why its been doing it. I was running the latest aokp and than it started rebooting and shutting off. So I went back to my nandroid backup and still continues. Running darkside v7, and problem is still there. Anyone know why this is happening?
It started happening while listening to music.
Here's a logcat, I used catlog right before it shut down. I cannot comprehend what it is trying to say, hopefully one of you can help me out. Thank you.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Everytime I would lock my phone with the power button it'll turn off and stay black vibrating. When I lock my phone using screen off and lock app it won't turn off but to unlock it I have to use the power button, than it turns off.

So I went to a T-Mobile store earlier and they told me they can't replace my phone because I'm rooted and they think its the rom, even tho I showed them.
I have to odin flash the original stock rom and go back to T-Mobile to get it replaced.
Know any way you can flash back without an internet connection on a computer?

In the non touch clockwork recovery use menu to scroll down. Home to scroll up. Back to go back. And search to select. I figured it out by my power button clicking things.

the only way i know how is through odin. I've done it a few times. at the end of the flashing I find that the phone turns itself off or something which marks it down in odin as a FAIL..when in actuality it flashed....it just needs a kernel flash and it'll all be candysticks and lollipops.
At this point in my phones life though, however, it is increasingly harder to do anything in clockwork since the button is fudged up. I think I might have to pony up 35$, but if you can Odin your phone back to flash and tell T-Mobile/Samsung about it, you can probably get the repair for free
I downloaded the Jedi Mind Trick JB 2 ROM and installed it via clocwork mod recovery .. That went fine but it took me a few days to realize I didnt have a working video camera anymore on my phone.. so I thought to flash a stock ROOTed rom instead...
Then I found this threat about an updated version of Jedi Mind Trick's ROM labled JB 3.. So I wiped as much as I could in recovery and chose to format all the options it gave me in recover , Format system , data , cache , emms(or something) .. and now when I boot the phone , it shows the first flash screen , and the samsung logo starts to shimmer then it reboots back to the splash screen and repeats this process everal times before just going black and sitting there..
So I've successfully bootlooped my phone doing this..
MY PROBLEM -- I don't know how to charge my phone or connect to it to install anything else..
Is this a serious problem? How can I charge my phone to continue troubleshooting it? It still has some battery to try some things but I don't know how to hook it up to transfer any other roms to it via USB cable and PC in it's current state..
I'm very computer savvy but I'm trying to learn this phone modding stuff and I realy hope I didn't brick my phone in this process.
Can someone please help me out here? I'll be on the forums religiously until I figure this out.
What should I start doing first??
Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!
still working at it
I think I'm at the point of having to use ODIN to flash a new rom since i cannot simply copy this rom to the sdcard to use clockwork to flash it .. Am I correct on this ?
For some reason this rom I found (should be stock rooted tmobile gSII rom) does not want to open from ODIN's PDA button cause its in .zip and not .tar or anything... I'm not sure how to flash this rom with ODIN ( I'm not even 100% sure this is how its supposed to go) Any suggestions ?
phew
UPDATE - So I managed to research enough to find out that there is no way to flash a CUSTOM rom with ODIN.. SO I had to download a stock (presumably rooted) t-mobile rom and flash THAT ...
Now I'm back up with a rooted rom and will begin re-installing clockwork and then my custom deodexed rooted rom afterward.
Thanks for all who almost kinda tried to care to reply in this past 2 hours =) -- As previously mentioned.. I am a nerd.. I just suck at phone modding. Haha
So , looks like I'm in the clear now and don't need any more support on this particular topic yet.

Is this true? Through a recommendation (haven't done anything to my phone from rooting/flashing KANGSJUGGERNAUT2 years ago), I tried to flash CM10 and ended up with a bootloop myself. Tried flashing through ODIN but it kept crashing; does anyone know why?
Afterward, I tried to reflash it through CWM and from then on bootloops into a installation process that never completes.
For some reason my CWM turned super slow, freezes/hangs and reboots after a few minutes.
I gave the phone to a friend who does this stuff on the regular but he said my initial flash wasn't complete cause in download mode says I'm still running official? No clue.
I was told this via email/chat: "No luck, it won't even boot anymore, I think I'll just bring it back tmrw morn
10:43 PM
Sorry I'm at a wedding (yea I know random) I left my phone with coat check
OK I've narrowed down the reason but not the solution, you had an AOKP based ROM which fundamentally is based on CyanogenMod, but it wasn't correctly flashed as the phone still thought it has factory ROMs still running
11:10 PM
Clockworkmod(even though it was working before) wasn't accessing the partitions of the phone correctly so it wasn't properly wiping or flashing properly.
11:12 PM
So basically from the first time you flashed cwm it didn't flash properly then the next time you flashed using the new recovery it didn't flash anything it was supposed to do itself properly , so basically it was a chain of events in addition to a bad boot loader, that's why it never went to recovery or download mode correctly
11:13 PM
That's something that had to do with the way the phone was built meaning you may of had a bad bootloader from the very begin and are now feeling the synptoms
Basically, and I would hate to be the reason or partially the reason you have a dead phone, basically it was a matter of coincedencr that it happened as this could of happened at anytime, once you have a bad boot loader its pretty much down hill from there"
Any helpful insight as how I can rectify this? is my phone truly dead? Sorry about the quoted format, it was copied and pasted.
If I were in your boat, I'd use Odin and flash the stock 4.1.2 ROM.

you can try using adb and put the phone in dl mode.
sometimes its as easy as pull battery and wait awhile (20 min or more) and try again.
if you've exhausted all possibilities, you can use a jig to force a dl mode.

I don't know what adb is, or how to use it; I have, however seen my friend RDP to my desktop and do something and used the term 'adb' in his attempt to code through the phone.
I've done that battery waiting period, for nearly an hour and still no result.
After doing some researching, I have found that many people have stated a USB JIG would not be applicable to a 'hard bricked' phone. I really wanted to try as it looked like the most, simple and inexpensive solution.

Boot it holding the volume up button. This should get you into so-called "recovery" where you can, among other things, restore it to defaults.
If recovery also doesn't work (which would be unusual), boot it holding volume DOWN button. This will get you into a "download" mode where you can use ODIN to flash new recovery (such as CWM recovery which is very nice and powerful), or even flash entire firmware from scratch.
Good luck, let us know how it goes ~
[edit] oh and do all that while having it connected to USB power, in case the battery is empty.
still doesnt work

Anything doesn't work , When I boot while holding HOME and volume up (recovery) appears the blue advice in the upper left corner and about 2 segs after the cellphone restart again, again and so on, When I boot with the down (download) the process on kies working good but when ends the cellphone restart again, again and so on. I'm start to think that something in the hardware is damage :crying:
looks like you messed something up there...
Anyway, if your phone is rooted, and/or you don't care about warranty you can get it in download mode (you said it works fine with kies until reset, so I suppose it means that download mode is at least accessible).
And after that use Odin to reinstall the stock rom completely.
Or, again with Odin install custom recovery, and then whatever ROM you like.
While working with odin, be sure to stick to the guides here on XDA. (for a custom recovery see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980)

If you're not entirely stock you'll have trouble using Kies.
I myself had trouble when tried to revert to stock ROM from CM.
It failed to restore NANDroid backup every time, and I also didn't succeed in flashing the stock image with Odin as well.
In the end, I succeeded with this ROM (which is modified stock TW), usin ODIN. You can try this, just read and understand the instructions in the thread before you do anything.
Ironically, after a couple of days after reverting to stock rom I was so annoyed by the speed decrease compared to CM, that I reinstalled CyanogenMod back, found TouchWiz stuff I missed via separate apps, and I'm pretty happy with it ever since.
Bottom Line: anyways, if you already on custom stuff with altered warranty, you must get custom recovery working first, then it will be simple.
