[Q] Amon Ra 1.8.0.1 for the Desire? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm fine with clockwork mod.
But I have always wanted to try Amon Ra. But apparently you can't install unsigned roms with 1.7.
I have read that you can with 1.8, but does that exist for our Desire?

Unsigned roms work for me using amonra.

[Q] Newest Cyanogen and Clockwork.

Is the newest version of Cyanogen and clockwork safe for the 0004 hardware with Hboot 2.10 and 3.70?

Cyanogen is safe, running it now on my 0004. No idea about clockwork though.

use the modified amon_ra if you care about your phone working properly.

ClockworkMod Recoveries

I know you need the newest recovery (3.0) to install CM7 but with can you keep that recovery and install older roms as well? (Specifically 2.2 sense Roms) I know on the MT4G you need to switch between recoveries but on my Espresso I don't need to. Just curious if that's the case on My Vision. Thanks

Yes, CWM 3.0.0.x only for gingerbead 2.3.x and CWM 2.5.1.3 for froyo 2.2.x, so you have to switch back.

So I kind if just went through this last night I flashed gingervillain then I wanted to go back to 2.2.1 so I had both 2.x and 3.x recovery in the koush download folder so I flashed the 2.x recovery from a 2.3 rom then just booted in to recovery and flashed my 2.2 rom. Just change the names by adding gb or.fr

Clockwork recovery, new version

Hey guys.
When I rooted my phone (around christmas I think), I flashed the clockwork recovery v 2.5.1.4 or something through ROM manager. Doesn't really matter which version it is... I've noticed that there are newer versions of Clockwork now, 3.1.0.1 was just released.
So: Are there any benefits to this newer custom recovery, or should I just not bother with it?
And if I choose to flash it, will i be able to restore my ROMs that are backed up with my previous version of clockwork?
And: how to flash it? Regular flash the .Zip through recovery?
Thanks in advance guys

There are a few new menu options. New script that it runs off so rarely you have to use 2.5.x.x. If you S-On then you have yo flash the recovery through terminal.
Code:
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
Personally I wouldn't restore backups from 2.5.x.x so make another one if you change.

I am s-on, and thanks for your answer. I won't bother flashing it (or whatever it's called when you go through terminal) then..

Why not?

I'm not really comfortable with the whole terminal thing. Everything works as it is, i'll just leave it like that

Flashing using adb?

Soo, I have a htc desire, and, for some reasons, I have problems with the clockworkmod recovery I installed on it. So, does anyone have a tutorial or smth of how to flash a recovery like Amon Ra using only adb?
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
Please post information from your hboot. If it's new enough, I recommend to use revolutionary to go S-OFF which would make flashing recovery a lot easier. But I do not know any way to flash recovery via ADB.
You can use unrevoked. thats what i did. replace the cmw recovery with amon ra.

Before rooting or after you were rooted already?

doesn't matter. i did it after rooting.
It does matter! Because for some people unrevoked does not work if they are already rooted.

oh. well, it worked for me. so..i guess...just try it?
Or you can visit my thread, S-OFF (takes about a minute), then flash recovery via fastboot (takes about 10 seconds)

[Q] Does anyone have a link for Clockwork Recovery 3.0.2.4?

I am looking for Clockwork Recovery 3.0.2.4 for my G2 so I can install the DZ HBOOT. Does anyone have the download link for it?
I appreciate it
It's in RM, just scroll down to the bottom for the option to install older recoveries.

You don't need this specific version of recovery to flash the DZ hboot, it gets flashed from bootloader, not recovery.

or as I found out you can flash via fastboot so long as you have an engienering hboot. this way you don't have to reflash your radio and recovery again. although I did have to reformat my recovery (4ext)

^ This. Also if you just need the desire Z hboot, you can install the new ENG S-OFF hboot without a specific recovery (the one from the Virtuous wiki though does come with clockworkmod, but I prefer 4EXT recovery).
Thanks guys, successfully changed boot loader and I'm running Sense 4.0
