Follow what is suggested in the guide from the link provided above.
Execute this command from ADB or a Terminal Emulator app from the Marketplace: cat /proc/mtd
According to the post, your Erasesize will then be stated, either 20000 (PVT old) or 40000 (PVT new). It further goes on to mention that if you have a PVT new device, your phone has a different NAND chip, with a bigger pagesize and changed partition offsets, therefore, tools such as ClockWorkmod, AlphaRev, and some custom ROMs will need to be adjusted to work with this change.
Those with an Erasesize of 20000 are the lucky ones and would not have received the recovery errors when attempting to flash or backup their roms.
If your device has an Erasesize of 40000, then you were not so lucky and will be required to use the modified custom CWM-AlphaRev Recovery 2.5.1.3 and install it with unrEVOked in the meantime for a temporary fix.

I flashed Version A today to my JM5.
Just get the JM5/2 ECLAIR "Version A" zip and rename it to update.zip
Put it in the root of your internal sd card and boot into recovery. There just apply update.zip!

I'm sure most of you are familiar with the "2 white bars when booting into recovery issue" so I have a favor to ask. I'm running the 2.5.0.5 recovery on my HTC incredible and needed to do some stuff from recovery. It seems like recovery is working, I just cant see the menu options. Can someone post the menu items (and order of course) so I can use it blind? I just need the main menu and partitions menu. Thanks!

just go to rom manager, all recoveies and install the new one. I think it adresses the slcd screen problem
Awesome, thanks. Can you also show me the mounts and storage menu?

Unfortunately this didn't work for me. With 2.5.1.1 The screen just went nuts and flashed a bunch of colors. 2.5.1.0 and 2.5.0.1 both had white bars. At some point I had an older version of the recovery mod that worked but then when I installed ROM manager it forced me to install the recovery mod which caused the white bars problem.
SOLUTION
It turns out the recovery is fully functional, you just can't see it on the screen. So, you can do all the mounting from adb. The best part is you don't even have to know the paths to mount. If you type
Code:
mount -a
from an adb shell it mounts all the partitions (except the sdcard for some reason).

Nice to know. Thanks
Sounds like you have a slcd screen. I had the same problem. Go to this link. Once you flash through Hboot it works perfectly. Better than messing around with it in the dark! Hope that helps.

Flash MISC, run the pc36img. Everything seems sane, then i do the rageagainstthecage exploit again, load on a recovery image. as soon as i reboot to recovery my /system/ partition size gets cut in half and then i can never boot again because random files are missing. Also flashing images fails because half the files dont copy. same with nandroid restores.
results from df before:
/system: 358400K total, 270140K used, 88260K available (block size 4096)
results from df inside recovery after mount -a

I cant seem to find anyone else with this problem, ive tried it several times with different recovery images. WTF am i missing?
Have you tried unrevokeds unrooter? I used it when i got my second evo with 2.2 on it and i had no problems. Maybe the root method is causing the problems.
I had the same problem. I ran RUU using fastboot and it restored me to stock.
Same issue...
I was able to get su with hboot Super one click.. I can post a place to download if needed. My issue is with the crappy quality of this hardware ver (003) my wife has the original and i love it.
also
I also cannot get any roms to load... I used the traditonal push with no success... Although i have noticed on significant thing that seems to keep happening.... its always fails with the boot.img. I tried loading Fresh through the Rom manager and all it would do is kick me to recovery.... try to do it manually and all roms fail on the boot img.
Hi guys this is my first post in xda developers but i've always solved my troubles with your help. But now i really need to expose my problem, cause actually i can't find a solution even if there are many posts about it.
I changed my clockworkmod from 6.0.1.0 to 6.0.4.5 to flash a 4.4 android version rom on my galaxy w.
everything went okay, i guess but i had some issues with photo gallery (kinda everything duplicated, so i had a bunch of ''useless-double-files'').
One day later I decided to go back to my 4.0 rom and here the mess begins. I tried a restore from cwm but i couldn't because there was an error about restoring /data (but there's still the recovery date in that list) so I re-flash the 6.0.1.0 cwm and the 4.0 android rom, but when i turn off my phone all my pictures was GONE.
I plug my device to my computer and it says that the available space is almost full, like when the mess wasn't happen, but when i browse the pictures i can't find them. :crying:
I tried this and everything goes til this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
(even if my .raw is only 8mb???? )
edit: i looked up in partitions of my phone here and i re-did all this but downloading mmcblk0 instaed of mmcblk0p12 that was only 8mb. this is goin over 1,80 gb. is this the correct partition?
how can I turn .raw file in files?
Please help me guys, i literally waste my all day.
(Sorry for my bad english tho)
(sorry for double posting) i've got news..
i finally got my .raw / .vhd files. they are
mmcblk0p28 (that is my mnt/sdcard stuff 1,7 gb like my internal storage phone is. it's 100% full but i didn't find much.. only small pictures)
mmcblk0p17 (that is /data and i find not much pictures in this)
then i tried mmcblk0 that was the largest file (the whole phone i guess?) but when I attach it as a vhd in disk management it comes already partitioned and allocated. what does it mean??
should i give up? i will never get my pictures back? :crying:
Hello everyone and have a Merry Christmas,
I'm trying to update my TWRP recovery because I want to go 100% stock. I'm still running TWRP 2.7.0.2. The most recent version of TWRP is 2.8.3.0.
I downloaded the TWRP manager app from the Play store and easily selected the last available version of the recovery to install.
After downloading the .img file, I get a pop up that looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The pop up says: "Be sure that the listed path is correct for your device. An uncorrect check may result in bricking your device. You can't flash a recovery directly on Android on some devices. If you can't flash through Android, please choose a different method".
It looks like a "routine" alert, but nonetheless it sounds very alarming. How can I say if the listed path is the correct one for my device (HTC One M8 unbranded GSM international version)?
Thank you for helping.
why update twrp ? twrp is not stock ! and you can also fastboot flash it. oldskool way
Because the procedure to go stock requires some flashing and it was adviced to have the latest version running.
I'm not such an expert, I'm more the type who tries to read as much as possible before trying anything, and upgrading TWRP was a sort of "pre-step".
Also I'm not very keen to use fastboot: I got that it is great, but it is not very straightfoward for beginners.
The tool from the Play store seemed to do the job pretty good and easily.

What if I flash a custom recovery over a custom recovery? Is it possible to simply flash it and overwrite an already existing custom recovery?
there is no other way, the recovery will always overwrite the old one. its impossible to run 2 recoveries
