Update thru ROM Manager

I have Rom manager installed but I don't know how to update with it. If I boot into recovery using Rom manager I get the latest clockwork, but if I reboot the phone holding down the volume down then I get the old clockwork.
How do I update to get the same version no matter how I access clockwork.
Cheers

When you use rom manager you are using the fake-flash method.
To update it permanently you need to use unrevoked, or fastboot if you have s-off.

No it will not work. What happens is rom manager sets it to flash via the stock recovery on reboot, but it can't do that without the engineering bootloader, since the stock one doesn't allow self signed update packages such as clockwork to flash, while the engineering one does. You need to have full root to flash a recovery. And also, in case you didn't already know, the mt3gs is s-on so your recovery resets on reboot anyway, requiring you to flash a recovery every time you go to it. There's your answer haha

Yeah they really do. Good news though, we're about to get s-off. Alpharev is close.

rom manager can't flash recovery. Use unrevoked to flash a permanent recovery.

Clockwork mod update problem..

hey guys,
got a strange problem , when i try to update the CWM recovery from 2.5.0.7 to latest 3..why does it always switch back to orginal 2.5.0.7 after reboot
I am trying to update it via the update.zip method.
tried the hboot but kept getting the sig verification failed error...
plz help me guys
Because you fake flash it. To do it permanently you can unroot and use unrevoked or s-off and use fastboot.

You can also do it through the terminal app as well if your not S-Off

Can't go in the Clockworkmod Recovery

I installed the Rom: PyramidMod007 v11 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236126 and now the Superuser v3.0.4 won't work. Then I installed the new Superuser v3.0.5 but now I can't go in the Clockworkmod Recovery and the new Superuser v3.0.5 don't work. So what can I do to come in the Clockworkmod Recovery and to let the Superuser work?
And yes my English isn't the best.
Superuser has nothing to do with clockworkmod, I don't really understand your question?
But if you want clockworkmod then just reflash it

But I can't go in the hboot
Well, if you can't get into hboot, then your in serious trouble, what happens when you try?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Settings, power, enable fastboot. This had better not be ticked

Why are u trying to get stock recovery? you can flash a stock rooted rom, and you will probably get stock recovery or flash stock rom, you will lose root but not S-OFF.
Flash the latest ruu from your computer and root with superoneclick.

There's a game (Kingdoms at War) I've been playing I want to keep... As I've invested months in it and a titanium backup doesn't back up the data properly..
So I'd prefer ota as it keeps your apps etc....
Hmm, okay I'll see what I can find

Well i did apply a ruu but I can't booting into stock recovery just take me to a screen with a mobile with a red triangle, and 4ext recovery control says that I cot latest recovery installed. So I don't think I got stock recovery, so there is no way I can get it from my mobile.

The mobile with a red triangle is the stock recovery.
Can't you do anything in the stock recovery? Worthless recovery :thumbdown:

It's only used by ota updates to update the phone. Same with all stock recovery....
You just need to extract it using adb now then you can reflash your own favourite and post the extracted recovery here...

Yep...if you have the .exe file u can do it...there´s a way to do that. If you have the .zip file then just extracted and find the recovery.img file....
