Need help Flashing Kitchen Rom Plz - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I just created my custom 2.1 rom from Modaco's kitchen.
once it downloaded I renamed the rom to update.zip and put it on my goldcard. I booted into recovery and performed a wipe and then applied the update. It failed with the message E:\signature verication failed. So then i read somewhere i had to use fakeflash. so i put the fakeflash update.zip on my goldcard and booted into recovery again. I applied the update and it booted into clockwork recovery.
But how do i flash my custom rom using this. because if i put the rom update.zip file on my goldcard it overwrites the fakeflash update.zip file.
Plz help its rather confusing
Thanks
Dion.

The easiest way to flash a rom is to download rom manager from the market. Remove the fake flash update.zip and just keep your new rom on the SD.
You could also look at unrevoked which flashes a permanent recovery to your phone.

Hi,
You can name ROM file as you like. Dont have to be update.zip.
Just dont forget the name

Flashing a framework-res from UOTK

Hello all,
I have a stock rooted rom 2.29.405.5.
Hboot: 0.93.0001 (PVT3 SHIP S-ON)
Recovery: ClockworkMod v2.5.0.7 (Should I upgrade to the latest version? If so, how should I do it? Any guide?)
My rom must be odexed.
I would like to install my own framework-res.apk from the UOTKitchen..
Am I able to do that?
What are the exact steps to follow?
Thank you for your time!
PS: Haven't checked the "is this thread a question" as I saw it the sec I clicked the "Submit New Thread" button,sorry!
http://uot.dakra.lt/how_to/ Everything is here, very good tutorial.
Thank you for the link!
It says at this guide:
Flash UOT zip -- So I should: install zip from sdcard -> choose zip from sdcard
right?
Why is it wrong to do this via adb with push and pull functions?
Should I upgrade clockworkmod recovery?
I never used clockworkmod, but I guess that would be the right way to do. Personally, I haven't tried adb yet, flashing through recovery is easier for me.
But I have to use the pull function so as to get the framework-res.apk, right?
Is there any other way to do so?
Not necessary, it's easier to choose the ROM you want to modify from the Kitchen's List.
Well I pulled it with adb just to be sure!
At the kitchen it says:
ClockworkMod 3.x (recomended)
I have ClockworkMod v2.5.0.7 and via rom manager I can see this:
Current Recovery: ClockworkMOd 2.5.0.7
Latest Recovery: ClockworkMOd 2.5.0.7
Also at the kitchen we have this option:
Flashing for Data++ Rom
I have flashed this rom with this mod A2SD+.
This means that I should check this option?
But after a search here I've found these:
Clockwork 4.0.0.5.z110623
ClockworkMod Recovery - 3.2.0.1
Could somebody please help me with the choices at the Kitchen page(where we upload the framework-res.apk for froyo) depending on my rom and the Data++ mod I've installed?
Thank you!

[Q] New Clockwork Recovery 5.0.0.0

Hi... I just found that Clockwork Recovery has new version from their website but in zip format. Try to install it through ROM Manager and recovery mode but it is just temporary recovery. Every time I enter recovery mode by pressing power and vol down and choose recovery it is back to old recovery.
Does anyone try this new recovery and how to make it permanent or is it available in img format so I can flash it using Android Flasher.
for your reference please find it here :
hxxp://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.0.0-bravo.zip (please change hxxp into http)
*** sorry for my horrible English and grammar
it is cause you use the fake-flash method, launching CWM 5.0.0 by flashing a .zip file from your current recovery.
in order to permanently change your recovery you would have to be S-OFF and have a .img file of the new recovery
My HTC Desire already S-OFF but where to find this img file of new CWM Recovery?
I have search over Google and this forum but did not found. Is it possible to change this zip file into img file?

Yes but not all file available.
like HTC Bravo only latest recovery in zip format only.
Thanks
Yeah, but as this thread is for v5.0.0.0 then people will want the newest will they not?
someone already did some test?
for example backup the current rom (maybe one with ext partition), then flash an other rom (just for test), and then restore the backup (and see if boots and everything ok)?
i will try later anyway, but of course will be nice to already know if its work or have some problems
Has any one had the edify script error with CWM 5.0.0.0 recovery ?
I flashed CWM 5.0.0.0 today via fastboot and it works fine - however I tried flashing Cool 3D V9 Rom and then when i flashed the boot loop fix & got the edify scripting error does any one know of a work around ??? I did a search and i found some code by coolexe and baadnews but not sure if there is a way to fix this ?

ask the dev to update the script in the flashable zip or flash a 2.x recovery (amend script is no more supported from 3.x and up, only edify is supported)
anyone have a changelog? cant find one anywhere!

follow koush or clockworkmod on twitter..5.x has faster backups (now it used .tar files) and preserve the file system of each partition (if ur sd-ext is ext3, it will be backup and restore as ext3, if u have ext4 it will be ext4, etc..with previous cwm recoveries the sdext was restored always as ext3)
also a new color sheme..now is blue light
edit: new recovery seems available 5.0.1.0 http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.1.0-bravo.img
I read from a koush twit :
"Desire and Desire CDMA users: I have just switched you to real flashing rather than fakeflash. You will need to S-OFF. with unrevoked."
so, out of curiosity, how Rom Manager can flash the recovery for real?
I always use fastboot, and i though there was no other way than that and the PB99IMG.zip method..
Someone know how that works (i mean the flashing through an app)?
i'm fine with 4.xxxx

Well there have always been another way just not on desire, since s-on users couldn't write to system or recovery while system was booted. But with s-off using a flash_image script will work just fine, which is pretty much what rom manager does(i assume).
So I asked koush on twitter to change us to native recovery flashing since s-off have been around for quite some time for desire
edit: so for everyone s-off that means: to update just install/open rommanager and press "flash clockworkmod recovery"(tested and working just fine)

Thanks to ur tips, i found how it works!
from the terminat emulator on the phone:
Code:
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
that should flash the recovery (even other partition i though), without use fastboot and without use the pc! thats nice!
On AOSP roms the flash_image utility is already included on /system/bin..in other roms (like stock ones) it should be downloaded and placed on the phone and used in the same way
that probably what rom manager does
So there is no way to get the latest version of ClockworkMod Recovery if we are on S-ON ?

[Q] cm11 goomanager install twrp but cant replace cwm

As the title said, I just flashed a custom rom into my device ( CM11 kitkat 4.4.2)
Its the first time i root and flash my device
So now, goo manager told me that there is an update available for my device, i follow the instruction of it by downloading it
after that it pop up saying that my device need to have an open script recovery, (I searched youtube, they usually use twrp to update the CM custom ROM), so press yes and it started to download + install
There's a small pop up that saying I have installed twrp on my device, but when i press on reboot into recovery, it shows CWM recovery, even I try reboot into recovery by using ROM Manger.
How do I solve this ?
I just want to install TWRP and uninstall CWM as they said TWRP works better with CM version ?
and one small question, can i delete the zip file that i use to flash the ROM in my external sdcard, and the zip file that i have to use to update after flashing them or updating them ?

Cause you need to reflash your recovery.If you downloaded a zip file boot in CWM and flash the recovery zip file.If you downloadeded .tar.md5 file you need to put your phone into download mode ,open odin on your laptop and flash the recovery file (you need to transfer the .tar.md5 file to your laptop).Well you shouldn't delete your current ROM zip file to be honest you should have atleast have one ROM zip file (with the appropriate add ons needed ) just incase you run into trouble you can always flash the ROM from scratch (incase you don't have a back up of it on your sd card) I always keep one touch wiz ROM and one CM11 ROM zip file along with zip files of philz touch and twrp recovery (i don't do nandroid backups-personal choice) on my sd card.

Wow, so what i have to do is to boot into cwm and flash that recovery zip file ?
And so the twrp will replace cwm ?

Correct,that's how one replaces their existing recovery with another recovery.At end of flashing the zip file ,go back to main menu and click on "reboot recovery" ,You'll see your new recovery

Thanks you really helped me a lot
sorry for late reply as my replies are limited because im just new to here
By the way, one more question is is there anyway i can flash back to my stock rom but remain rooted?
and what if i want to unroot it
because i found this ROM quite buggy as in the camera app, i am a person that will take picture everyday, panaroma is quite important to me
i found this camera is very very very poor haha
furthermore, whenever in a skype call, i will hear nothing if i plugged in my earphone o.o
so i will probably flash back to stock rom but remain rooted is case of flashing other more stable rom

[Q] Replace CWN with TWRP

Stupid question time (sorry), but I may already know the answer!
I have CWN recovery installed, but a couple of Roms I fancy trying say they need TWRP. Is it as simple as copying TWRP zip to SD card and then flashing with CWM? Would this then remove CWN?
Thanks in advance
You are correct.
Thank you Sir (I did hit 'thanks' also!)

You don't flash TWRP or CWM via zips. They are img files. You either flash them via fastboot from PC or you can you use an app like flashify after putting the img file on your SD card. Once you flash either of them, the other one gets automatically replaced
Or install flash image gui.
Thanks to the both of you - going to try using flashify now

[q] please help -- bricked --

well, I was installing a aosp jelly bean rom and I installed the boot.img first and then flashed the rom, but the rom said that the install was aborted due to bootloader issues or something. I then tried to restore my nandroid backupand that put me stuck on the htc screen on bootup. I then tried to install stock recovery as a guide told me or something and it got rid of my backup. I have no idea what to do. I have reflashed CWM and can boot into the bootloader and the recovery. How can I install a new rom or a stock rom to make this work. Please help!
My main number is this : 4.18.401.4
my hboot version is 1.72.0000
my radio version is 5.1204.167.31

ok wich hboot and wich recovery you flashed first time, now you are with the stock one.
1. Unlock bootloader and flash THIS recovery
take the recovery.img from zip paste it in your fastboot folder and flash it with the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img then go in recovery and charge the phone
2. Do you have some rom on your sd card?
3. Wich CWM version?
Edit if your AICP rom is still on sd card flash THIS RECOVERY then install the rom and flash the boot.img.
I think you tryed with the old recovery to install KitKat or LP rom big mistake

okay, so this will sound odd but I rfandomly flashed philz touch recovery and my phone turned on and is now working.... I think I need the proper help to install a custom rom now, instead of messing up... could you maybe get me the files for a JB AOSP rom? I would appreciate it! not sure what to look for now after this, scared i'll mess up. Thanks!

Why you not install some sense for first time or try to flash some CM12 or lolipop. Remember Philz 5.15.9 is only for JB roms and mount sd card work only on 5.15.9. If you want KitKat or Lolipop you must to change the recovery to this where I give you in my post, but dont forget to copy the rom to sd card with this recovery first., or easy way download some sense and flash it
Say wich rom you want to flash and I will give you the right link for rom

You are very kind when flashing a rom, do I remove the boot.img from the rom file to flash via fastboot, or do i just make a copy of it? I would like to flash cm 10.2 to begin with, which files do i need and which recovery? thank you in advance, you are a great help!
Also, my phone only came with 1.5gb free space for apps... It is a 32gb phone and i have 25gb of storage left but it says only 1.5gb out of 6gb for apps, how do i unlimit this?

10.2 is too old but it is your decision. just extract the boot.img from zip and put it in your fastboot folder. Don't extract the hole zip, and copy the original zip on your sd card. You can move the apps to your sd card CM support it
Well I want an aosp rom that means i can stick to the same recovery. It seems easier to stick to JB, would that be okay? Could you find me the relevant files?
I basically want the easiest one to install and the most risk free!
