Stuck in Recovery Mode

Hey guys, just rooted my G2, I followed the instructions closely and in the bootloader menu it says S-OFF. I can boot into the OS fine and I have root, but when I'm in the bootloader menu and trying to boot into recovery I get stuck on this screen with a triangle and a exclamation mark. I tried flashing clockworks recovery image, but still no good. Any ideas? Thanks.

Issue [SOLVED]
Yeah, sooo I just fixed it. All I did was reflash the radio image to the latest version then flashed clockworks recovery again and from clockworks rom manager app I was able to get into recovery with no problems. Give it a go, heres the link on how to flash just the radio: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836081

Cool ill give it a shot, appreciate the tip

How to boot in recovery mode?

Hi,
I want to install the next rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448552
through recovery mode.
But how do i come in the recovery mode on my SE Arc S?
--
I had already tried with ROM Manager but then nothing happens, only the phone is rebooted, and does not start in recovery mode.

Thanks!

Install the x-parts app and through the app install recovery.
To boot into recovery, turn on your phone and in the Sony Ericsson splash screen (not the boot animation, the first screen) and when the LED indicator turns blue, press volume down, then you'll be in recovery.
Next time you post a question use the Q&A forums.

Propably you'll need to have kernel with recovery inside so you'll have to unlock bootloader.

Factory reset shouldn't do any harm. It's just going to delete all your data on phone and restore default settings. Anyway, if you would eventually have some problem, you will be able to fix it with Flashtool.

You want to install cm10.1? You must use custom kernel with it... They have cwm version built in... You don't have to install cwm...

NEED HELP!

I cannot boot into recovery. I was attempting to update ROM/Firmware and now I just get the white HTC screen - won't boot up at all. PLEASE HELP!!!

You might want reinstall your recovery, or try a different one. I use ur pc to push the recovery onto your sd card and then put back in your phone. Then, start your phone by holding down the volume down + power button. You'll that should bring you to hboot. Once your recovery installs, just select recovery from the hboot screen and you should be ok.... As long as you rooted it correctly, that is.

[Q] Cant enter recovery

Hello!
Just unlocket my bootloader with freegee. I have the E975 device with v10d. I have chosen the CWM touch. But i could not enter. It just entered fastboot. Then tried again with freegee but this time i picked the other one. Version 2.5. Still just enters fastboot.
I searched the threads, Only hits i got was some failure about the boot. Not the same problem i have.

hi. when youre in fastboot mode press vol down i think twice then power and you should boot into recovery or vol upp twice dont remember if it is up or down twice

I somehow managed to boot into clockwork touch through ROM Manager after a try or two. But i know i flashed TWRP 2.5 last time. There wont be trouble with them interfering?

THANK YOU! I couldn't enter recovery after some nasty bootloop. You helped a lot! It was power+volume_up to get to fastboot, then tap volume_up twice then tap power and done!

need help

Hello from the newbie.
Ok guys i screwed up big time on my htc desire hd. I bought the phone from ebay and it was already rooted. It had a superuser icon on it and it was a 2.3.5 gingerbread. I downloaded CyanogenMod 10.1 Nightlies and went to recovery mode and fleshed it. But me being a newbie didn't know that S is on. So now my phone is stock on white screen with HTC logo on it. I still can go to recovery mode with no problem. Plese help what to do?

since you are on s on u cant flash boot.img via recovery on boot partition
simply extract boot.img from rom.zip flash it from fastboot adb
Fastboot flash boot boot.img

Yea i dont know how to do that ha ha. i will try to look up for a video tutorial. Thank you

Did you pull out the battery for a few seconds -->put it back-->hold volume down 3 seconds, then simultaneously hold down power button for 1 sec while keeping vol. down pressed.
Its been awhile since I've had to do that. A menu should pop up after asking your option for fast boot,h boot, recovery etc... From there you can see if you're s on OR s off. (top left corner)
I wish I could say I have done that before, but I have been on s off for a very long time. I'm not sure if you can turn s on or off from there

You can't and he already said that he's S-ON...
As for the OP, do some reading before doing things that you don't know how! Use search on the XDA site! And this is the wrong place for this post!
