Ok so I can not boot into recovery , i hold power button and volume button and when the screen comes up to permantly erase user data & reset settings, i hit power three times but it does not go to cwm, it shows the android and a small box and im guessing it does a factory reset. then it does not boot up, i can get it on and plug it into my computer but nothing else works after setup wizard, is there anything i can do? i have backups on there but can not get through them except through the computer please please help

Reflash CWR using the zip file since you cant get into the os to use rom manager. It didnt flash if its going to the android/triangle screen
 
hey im in hialeah too! I cant get into recovery from reboot, when i press the volume key and power button it and press the power button three times it does a factory reset, then it takes me to the setup wizard and when i finish the setup the screen stays blank like in the picture i posted.

shit I forgot wat rhodium u on ZVD or b, c
 
no it only goes to a blank screen with the status bar at the top, when i try to get to recovery and i press the power button three times, it actually resets the phone instead of taking me to recovery . I have it plugged into my computer and i can see the files
 
i can receive calls and answer them but when i hang up it goes back to the black/blank screen, all i see is the status bar
