[Q]No CWM recovery for Samsung Galaxy s4 mini - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I followed the description for rooting my phone (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980)
So I installed the recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.7 - serranoltexx.tar.md5. with Odin3.0.9
After that I reboot the phone into recovery mode, but I see that I have not the CWM recovery, but the Android system recovery (3e)
So what am I doing wrong?

You're skipping the first restart right when Odin finishes the phone vibrates and you have to press home and vol+up , flash again the recovery and be alert for the vibration enter in recovery and flash the rootkit

[Q] CWM Recovery Install Attempt - Can't boot into recovery (stock or CWM)

I have attempted to install CWM Recovery on the Samsung i747 (Bell Mobility). At first, I flashed the Recovery using Odin and could only access the stock recovery. I soon found out after searching the forums that the phone writes over the recovery on next boot with the stock recovery.
I then read that I should turn off auto-reboot in Odin and after installing the recovery, pull the battery and reboot directly into recovery. Upon doing this (holding volume up, home and power), I get a quick flash of the Samsung boot screen with the blue text at the top and then a blank screen for a few seconds, the phone vibrates and reboots normally. It seems like the recovery is corrupted and no matter how many times I re-flash the recovery in Odin, I can't boot into it.
Download mode works normally and the phone boots normally. I need to be able to fix the recovery, even if that means recovering the stock recovery.
Does anyone have any idea how I could do this?
Thanks!
Are y ou rooted?

Follow the proper directions for adb push of clockwork. Two methods easy as it gets. No need for odin past acquiring root.
Yes, rooted.
I am rooted now, yes.

As soon as you see that Samsung logo with the blue at the top, let go of the power button but continue to hold the volume up plus the home button until it reaches the recovery screen. If u don't let off of the power button at that point it will boot normally.

Have you tried any other recoveries like twrp or the regular cwm?

I found out the solution. After flashing done in Odin, just force into recovery mode without letting it boot to android, then we will see the CWM recovery, select reboot phone now then select Yes to disable from stock recovery on next boot.
Hope this help other user too.

Maybe this will help...
1. Download PhilzTouchRecovery 6.26
2. Put device into Download Mode
3. Run Odin
4. Connect device
5. Load PhilzTouchRecovery.tar.md5 to PDA Tab/Button
6. Uncheck Auto Reboot from Odin
7. Click start. Once Pass! Disconnect device.
8. Hold Power Button, DON'T RELEASE till you boot into your new recovery.
9. Once booted to PhilzRecovery, select reboot system now, select yes. to make sure not to overwrite with stock recovery or else you're PhilzRecovery will be reverted back to your stock recovery and you have to flash again your PhilzRecovery.
10. Once successfully flashed PhilzRecovery. Make all necessary backups.
11. Once fully backed up. Copy backup files to your PC.

No. Once you're in PhilzTouchReco you have to select reboot now. Then a question will appear, select yes. And try to boot in recovery again. You should be in PhilzTouchReco...
hmm.. the recovery doesnt show up.. when holding power button. i tried and galaxy note logo showed up 10 times or more..and nothing :/

Ya....same thing happened to me too....please....anything I could do to make it right??

Pull out the battery for at least 30 seconds then try to re-enter to recovery
HOLD VOLUME UP + HOME BUTTON + POWER BUTTON
release the POWER BUTTON after 4-5 seconds so it won't loop to logo. try.

[Q] Cannot flash CWM recovery

I am using Odin 3.09. I have tried several CWM .tar.md5 and recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.6-serranoltexx.tar.md5
It always says "PASS!" and when I boot into recovery I get the old Android system recovery <3e>
What am I doing wrong??? Please help!
In Odin does it say "succed1 failed 0"?
After the phone reboots did you press Home + Volume up?

Yes, it says that. When I first press home + vol up I cannot get it into recovery. It does a normal boot. Only if I try again, it boots to the OLD recovery
If fails because you did not boot into recovery right after it flashes. You must catch that first boot into recovery otherwise the system will automatically reflash stock recovery

[Q] Stuck at Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100 screen

softbricked my phone - samsung galaxy note 2 gt-n7100.
flashed slimkat rom (latest stable build may 2014) which worked. but then my camera didn't work so i thought i'd install the latest weekly which i heard fixed the camera bug... i didn't manage to do that because (i think) my cwm recovery thing wasnt up to date. so i flashed cwm recovery to 6.0.4.3 and thought hmm i'll try the 'install rom from zip' option on cwm recovery. i clicked it but nothing happened. i restarted the phone.
then got stuck in 'downloading, do not turn off target' whenever i reboot the phone - could not proceed.
i then used odin 3.09 and flashed clockworkmod recovery 6.0.4.3 but...
stupidly, i disconnected the phone before odin said 'PASS'.
i disconnected the phone when odin said 'RESET'. apparently i had to
wait for 15minutes before disconnecting but in my inpatience i
disconnected after only 1 minute.
current problem - i am stuck at the samsung galaxy note ii gt-n7100
startup logo. it does not reboot (not a loop). i tried hard reset with
volume up/down/both together with menu and power buttons to try to
enter recovery or download mode but cannot. tried removing battery for
a few minutes and trying again, still stuck.
what should i do - is there a way to access my phone via usb for example, without going into download mode?
