Make sure lircd isn't running, you have to kill the process before irrecord will work

What happens with "mode2 -d /dev/lirc0" Do you get output when you push remote buttons?

OK, starting from the beginning. Have you loaded lirc_rpi either by adding it to /etc/modules or modprobing it? I am assuming you'r using a gpio receiver, is this correct? I'm not sure about the tutorial you're using but I KNOW this one works http://forum.stmlabs.com/showthread.php?tid=5549

I had the same issue. I was trying to run the irrecord command in /etc/lircd/lircd.conf.d folder as this is where the guide i was following left me at that point. What solved it for me was to run the command after having stopped the lircd service from my home folder.
