I think you have the wrong version of Recovery, is it orange?? Orange is for gingerbread 2.3 CM7 reco 3.0.0.5 and green is for froyo CM 6.1 reco 2.5.1.4, search for the recovery 2.5.1.4 on XDA for G2 then flash through fastboot.

This is wrong, the new CWM recovery 3.0.0.5 thru Rom Manager now supports both Froyo 2.2 and Gingerbread 2.3 roms, and is orange.

that is the problem, it never goes into recovery mode, not from cwm, reboot screen or manually Vol.up and power, but I can hold Vol. down and power to get into fast boot, that is how I know I still have,
VISION PVT ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-0.76.2000 (PC1010000)
MICROP-0425
RADIO-26.03.02.26_M
eMMC-boot

if I do vol. up and power I get a black screen with orange charging light blinking.

thank you to all who tried to help, it was the sdcard, switched back to the card that came with phone and it updated to CM-7 from cwm, but thanks again to all

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.

my guess would be when you rooted your s boot is still on. it has to be off in order to flash non sense roms. try flashing caulkios http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745205
also go to settings then hardware information. what is your hardware version. once you have this power your phone off then turn it on by holding power down button and the power button this should boot you into bootloader. at top does it say supersonic blah blah blah s-off or s-on. also right below that gives hboot. 0.93.0000 is mine. once i know this i can help more. best guess is s boot is still on though.

Can't get into Recovery

I've readseveral threads over and over trying to find a solution to my problem. I was trying to flash a ROM and did the required data and cache wipe. After I downloaded the ROM The phone rebooted and now it stuck on HTC boot screen. I pulled the battery and press the volume down and power button to get into recovery. Once I get into recovery and it loads I get asked if I want to update RADIO_V2 and I can select yes or no. Well I tried both and no luck I can not get into recovery the option is not there. Here is my phone recovery info:
VisionPVT ENG S-off
HBOOT-0.76.2000 (PC1010000)
Microp-0425
Radio-26.08.04.16_M

Any help please or am I Bricked?
You have the ENG HBOOT installed...that's a good thing. So, this will allow you to reflash the recovery image from fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/<recovery>.img
You need to delete the update zip or pc10img. zip on your sd card. I think its not letting you go through recovery because its reading something in your sdcard.

[Q] Need help to go back rooted my evo

hi i just unroot my evo to take the phone to the Sprint store but now icant gio back to rooted my evo, i cant go to the bootloader to root and install a custom rom....what i can do???
You can't get into the bootloader? You probably have fastboot enabled. Turn fastboot off or pull the battery, then try again.
If you're still s-off, you can flash a recovery as PC36IMG through hboot and then flash whatever you want. If you're s-on, what you'll need to do depends on your hboot version. If you're on 2.10 or lower, use unrevoked. If you're on 2.15 or 2.16 you'll need to run revolutionary to gain s-off, then flash a recovery and either a custom rom or Superuser to root the stock rom. If you're on 6.17 (from unrooting revolutionary), you'll need to run the latest RUU and then you'll have hboot 2.16. You can then follow the directions for rooting 2.16

Pull the battery, then put it back in and hold volume down and power at the same time. Hboot version and s-on or s-off is shown at the top.

[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.

Here you go: http://ratherphallic.co.cc/OTHER/recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-vision.img
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
