I have lost my recovery!

---

After all the problems i had with my Wifi using ics (arco) i decided to downgrade to stock rom but with the new baseband hoping to solve the prblm. I downgraded according to "the-e"'s guide using ODIN but, i didnt flash stock recovery because i thought i would still have CWM recovery.

Now that i want to root, the "Box" comes up when i reboot but it just restarts and doesnt enter recovery mode~ i have no recovery. I tried using ODIN again, but it cant find my phone, it says "please connect phones". Even kies says my phone is incompatible!!?

What do i do?

When using odin you have to put your phone into download mode and then plug it into the pc while opening odin. Do you did that?

I cant enter download mode?! The page comes where i have to press the volume up button but that doesnt bring any reaction. neither does volume down (which is supposed to restart the phone).

download mode is volume down+home dude
maybe reflashing from odin could work?

If not mistaken, we will lost CWM and it may go back to stock recovery if we flash a stock ROM, by the way did you manage to enter into stock recovery?

If yea just download the Zip-file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1317394 to get root

Some guides related to CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1867870 & http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1924846

Hope it helps

Good luck
