I wonder if it's because there's something up with my device or the recovery partition is just being weird.

IDK, just pull it again and lets see what happens. Post it asap. I have been chomping at the bit to make cwm for this device. I have a little retribution to achieve.

I pulled it again and it came out with the same MD5 as the first one. I dunno what to say.
 
Hey guys, Thanks for working on this recovery.

Sorry to hear about your phone Martinez, you able to get it running again?
 
It seems to be a soft brick because I can access download mode, not that it does me any good. i might just return it and get another one.

Sorry to hear about yer phone bro. BUT, maybe not so bad. Check this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
These builds are not for us "persay" but there are simularities. I'm fairly confident our phones IS a rebranded SGS2 GT-I9100 running ICS 4.0.4 via a SINGLE core QCOM SNAPD RAGON board. Knowing that, I tried one of these builds (via ODIN, which is STILL open to you) IT FAILED! My point is, ODIN didn't allow me to brick. You have nothing to loose. Try em all, you might find One that works.

Hit the IRC link in my signature man. Lets see if we can get you fixed up. We have boot and recovery images, and we can get a system image if we need. It's not time to throw in the towel, its time to throw the towel at the three headed alien in the corner! (The one wearing a cowboy boot and a pair of Converse (tm) All Stars)

Lol alright I'll get on. Hopefully we can find a way to fix this.
 
Martinez, I use a great host, I don't use third party mirrors. IDK why your file would not download properly, but it's never been an issue in the past. I do hope the recovery fixes your phone...Sorry, I got caught up reading about a new NAND flash memory technology that uses microheaters to heat parcels of material to 800c in a millisecond to extend the life of the memory.

I should be the one apologizing. I'm sorry I wasted your time. The good news is that I'm finally unbricked and I owe it all to you. You sir are a life saver. As it turns out when I downloaded the file, windows had an odd way of downloading it. I had to unzip and then rename to .tar to finally flash. At the end I have a working phone again. Btw I was reading that same article not too long ago lol.

We need the recovery partitions so I can use the recovery.fstab to make the cwm recovery.

Can't we just make one for it. I was looking at several recovery.fstab from other phones and it's just a text file with the partition, partition type, and partition location. We know what partitions it has.
