Unless you have an advanced power menu you won't get the option to boot into recovery. You can use wanam xposed which has option for advanced power menu....

Install terminal emulator from play store.
Run these simple commands:
su
reboot recovery
Now your should be in recovery and can do a back up. You could also do manual key combo to get into recovery....

Let me ask did you actually flash cwm or just use cf auto root? As cf auto root keeps the stock recovery.
If I was you I would just flash twrp.

what are the key combinations - CWM

Hello,
I think my note 2 is rooted, coz I see the superSU app.
I want to go into recovery manually, what is the key combinations to get ito CWM.
My reason for doing so, is that I opened Rom manager and I don't see a recovery for t-mobile note 2, I see an S3 for Metro PCS and other recoveries. I want to manually go into recovery, to see/verify if there is a recovery that got flashed when I rooted it.
thank you in advance

After rooting the device, did you install a custom recovery? you can download goo manager in the play store and install TWRP recovery and reboot to it. If you already have the recovery installed and cant boot to the recovery then use adb to reboot it. Or another way is download terminal emulator and reboot using command lines from you for...only if you have root.
are you on stock or non stock recovery .. And to get into download mode . As far as i know from a off state hold down vol down and power button . to get into down load mode and its vol up to recovery ..
Not tried on my note but its how it goes on the note 10.1 tablet and other samsung devices i have had

Negative, only stuff I installed after the root was superSU and titanium backup.. both of the paid versions. .. When I power up holding vol+ Home Power instead of any upload option I just get the following
Reboot sys now
Apply update from ADB
Apply update from external storage
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Apply update from cache
Tried wipe data/factory reset to clear the root mod (multi-csc), but basically just wiped my phone of everything else except the root, lol, so at that point I figured I should ask for help..

that is the stock recovery. You need to get root again since u factory reset it. Once u get superSU go to play store and download goo manager to install TWRP or if you prefer CWR then install rom manager.

You don't have to reroot after a factory reset, these aren't iphones (unless you just mean download supersu again) But everything else is correct

copy your desired rom to the SDcard or internal storage and the open goo manager up again and choose reboot to recovery.

reboot again and hold vol up home and power until samsung appears then let go of power, but still hold home and vol up until recovery comes up. from there you can select to install zip ,which would be your rom. make sure to do a clean install (factory data wipe, wipe cache) Then use the instructions the op has up from where you downloaded the rom. should be good to go.

Install Flashify and flash TWRP Recovery. With that you do not need the home button.

Or flash CWM touch with Odin (can you boot into Odin Mode?) or with terminal emulator. So you doesn't need the home button too.

Why so complicated if you can do this with Flashify too?
Simply install Flashify from the Play Store. Flash your favorite touch recovery and you are done. No need for Odin or any commands in Terminal Emulator.

Just in case here the link to Flashify.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2349847
It´s quite easy and self explenatory. Working well on our device. Used it to flash CWM and TWRP Recovery forth and back. You can also use it to flash Kernels, ROMs, whipe cache, Dalvik and so on. It will autoreboot into your recovery (be it CWM or TWRP) and execute the operations. So really way easier than dealing with Odin or command line instructions in Terminal.

Which one did you try to flash? the img or the md5 tar file? I used the img and this worked great.
Edit: I now see why it didn´t work. You are using stock GB ROM which probably even isn´t rooted and that´s why flasify isn´t working for you. So yes you have to use one of the other two in this case.

Yes, but Flashify requires ICS or newer to work correctly. Works best with any CyanogenMod ROM as this also supports custom recoveries like CWM and TWRP.

Flash custom recovery without odin after rooting with cfroot

You can flash TWRP without ODIN if your phone is rooted.
Go to the playstore and download "goomanager" a free app
and click the menu softkey on left side of phone then select
"flash open recovery script".
Then wait til it gets done and when it's done just reboot the phone.
That's the easiest way to do it and TWRP is way better than cwm.
Good luck!
