Please I need your help.
I have rooted my HTC desire (not sim locked) with software Unrevoked and work great. The version of Clockworkmod is 2.5.0.7 and I found newer 2.5.1.2-bravo from this site. I can`t put the new version via ROM manager and Unrevoked.
I use custom rom: latest version of MIUI
ROM manager:
tryid with recoveries and select 2.5.1.4 and get error "An error occurred while ndonloading your recovery"
Unrevoked:
Select the .img file and phone boots twice and nothing happens.
Can you maybe tell me what is going wrong....
PS: I can put custom rom and partition my micro sd without problems.

Anyone,
In ROM Manager I choose to update the Recovery and it changes to 2.5.0.7.
If I reboot from ROM manager into Recovery it is 2.5.0.7
However if I power down and come into recovery via Fastboot, it is 2.5.0.1.
So I assume when you reboot it somehow loads the 2.5.0.7 (i would guess this is why I have a update.zip in root after this option)
My question is, how can I permanently update the recovery vs this on the go method?
Thanks,
Daniel
That method only does a "fake flash" of that particular Recovery which ROM Manager can use. It doesn't touch your original flashed Recovery.
The latest Unrevoked will let you update to the latest Clockwork Mod Recovery permanently: http://unrevoked.com/#desire

Hi,
I have CWM 2.5.0.1 on my desire after I rooted it with unrevoked in august.
I tried couple of times to update it to newer version and saw it working but after rebooting the desire and going into recovery with power button + vol. minus, I always see that it came back to the older version.
How to update it so it stays the updated version forever ?
Flash it properly and not through ROM Manager/a ZIP file
How to flash it properly ? Please explain.
Thanks
When you root with unrEVOked flashes a permanent version of a custom Recovery - either CWM or AmonRA (if you choose custom). If you then use ROM Manager (which is rubbish) it will load the latest one as a 'fake flash' which won't be there next time you load recovery.
You'll need to run unrEVOked again and flash the new CWM image if you want it
Thank you for explaining this to me.
Ok, Tried what you said with unrevoked and at the end unrevoked gives me an error: failed to get root. Is your firmware too new ?
I have baadnewz insertcoin 1.8f dhd rom and already rooted from august.
checked and still on the boot the recovery is 2.5.0.1 of CWM.
I choose custom recovery and tried to flash 2.5.0.7 CWM.
Can't understand what wrong with it.
Why do you need the new version? If you've already got CWM then just stick with it
Because I have an old version that causes some problems when I flashed insertcoin dhd rom.
Also tried with adb in fastboot and got an error that said signature verifaction error.
I'm stuck with cwm 2.5.0.1 :-(

Go get Android Flasher and then just use that to flash the recovery image.
I have a rootet Desire (via unrevoked) with s-off and Oxygen 2.1.3 ROM. I flashed a new clockwork version (3.0.0.5) .img file via ADB. If I boot my phone and enter the clockwork recovery the new version is used. If I reboot the phone using ROM manager it enters the old version of clockwork recovery.
So I think, I have 2 recovery versions on my phone. How can this be avoided? I just want to have the new one.
Found this in Cyanogenmod forum.
CWM 3.0.0.5 is permanently flashed so it's always there. 2.5.0.7 is a temporary recovery as when you reboot with rom manager, it uses the zip file that comes with it

Hello guys,
I rooted my WF with AlpharevX, I flashed then CM7 nightly build and yesterday CM7.1 RC1. Afterwards I realised that my GPS doesn't work. I wanted to reflash my radio, I have CMW 3xx, so it is not possible to flash it from recovery. I wanted to boot to recovery directly from ROM Manager, where I have 2.5.0.7, but when it reboots I receive only boot image, when I hit the power button I land in Recovery menu but it says, that it is 3xx version. I tried to reflash radio from there but of course I receive error message.
Have you any ideas, why it is like that?
I think, I could try to convert radio with amend2edify and then try to flash it from recovery, have someone tried this?
Reinstall CWM 2.x from ROM Manager. Someone tried to convert the radio file using Amend2Edify, and it didn't work.
Will help in booting to 2.x recovery.
Have u flashed 2.5.0.7 recovery from rom manager. If yes, it will be present in sdcard /clockworkmod/ downloads folder.
First boot into 3.x recovery then install zip from sdcard. Then choose zip from sdcard and selected the path and file. Then it gives 2.x recovery on the fly. And remember radio flashing is sensitive.

thx for answers
2.5.0.7 is present in sd/clockworkmod/downloads, so I try to flash it from recovery and then reflash radio. I know it is sensitive, but it seems that I don't have any other choice. I will reflash the same version that I have, so it shouldn't be harmful. then I will go back to newer CWM Version
done, GPS works

Flash this in CWM3/4:

This will give you temporary 2.5.0.7. Then proceed as normal.
If you want to permanently change your CWM Version, then, you can use Unrevoked (Select File > Custom Recovery Image) if you are not S-OFF, else directly use Fastboot to change the recovery version if you are S-OFF.
Thx, this is working perfectly...
