When I open ROM manager and press Flash Clockwork Mod recovery and select samsung epic, it says "An error occurred while downloading your recovery." I am running rooted stock. Does anyone else have this issue?
Thanks
Are you on stock DI18? The stock kernel won't let rom manager intall cwm. The easiest way to install clockworkmod recovery is to use the one-click.

So i'm having issues getting into recovery, I've gotten stock loaded and rooted via simple root. I can use quickboot, and get # in ADB. When I go into ROM manager to flash clockwork recovery, it says it doesn't have privlages. I've loaded the other recovery but my phone won't boot to it. Anyone else experienced this issue? I'm just trying to load up 2.2 and I can't get into recovery to do it. Any ideas?
Did you do the OTA for 2.2 or manually install it? Or did you use Ava's 2.2 with root?
If you are having trouble rebooting into recovery from Rom manager why not try to manually reboot into recovery. Power down the phone and hold the vol down while powering on the ph. See if this works.
With s=off, can the latest ClockworkMod Recovery be flashed via ROM Manager?
Yes, but not in the way koush has it currently. He needs to update the way he flashes the recovery image through ROM Manager so we can do it properly.
i was on the gingerbread leak, but got tired of it cuz its not completely stable, and i had clockwork mod 3.1.0.1 and it worked fine. i flashed back to ec05, froyo, and flashed clockwork mod 3.1.0.1 and it keeps freezing. i have ran error checking on my computer and re formated it in android and no luck. keeps freezing in the same spot! do i need to try a different clockwork version?
I have never had that issue, but how long are you giving it to run the backup? Also, why did you need to re flash cwm? Are you using rom manager or 3 finger boot to get into recovery? Here is a link to the acs recovery which is a modified version of cwm 4. If you install it you will have acs recovery on 3 finger boot and whatever recovery that is included with your kernel (probably cwm 3.1.0.1) via rom manager still.

it would run perfectly smooth on gingerbread. and it gets stuck on backing up system on file #11596 or something like that, and clockwork doesnt have an offical recovery for my phone so i have to use odin to flash a recovery. so i use the 3 finger boot. ill try the acs recovery and see what happens. if not ill have to go back to 3.0.0.5, which is the one that came with the rom.
When I installed ROM Manager, I touched on 'backup my ROM' option. it asked for ClockworkMod so I downloaded it (v3.x) but now it says "an error occured to run privileged commands"... what should I do?
There is no official CWM Recovery supported by the ROM Manager yet. There is only custom CWM Recovery, which you can flash using the tool made by hansoon2000 HTC One V All-In-One Toolkit.
If you already have the custom recovery in your phone it should be able to work with ROM Manager. Try to use the ROM Manager to reboot into recovery and make the backup there.
A direct link to the non-official CWM Recovery here. We had it long before the All-In-One Toolkit.
I am new to the whole rooting and flashing roms and kernels. I rooted my epic 4g touch via QBKing77's videos and then followed his video on how to install the clockwork mod recovery with the agat recovery. Then I went to google play and bought ROM manager pro and clicked "flash clock workmod recovery" and it showes that I have the latest version flashed, but when I then go to "boot into recovery" it boots into the clockwork mod recovery but when I try to use my volume buttons to navigate nothing happens. But they work in AGAT recovery? Whats wrong? What should I do?
Thanks
Im having similar issues with CWM. I have premium installed and when I click boot to recovery it goes to a weird android recovery with an android twirling something but there is no option for an image nandroid backup...and when i click on make a backup from the CWM menu it takes me to the same screen but says error and aborts... have the stock root...ff18....i have verified root. I also have odin mobile...it would be nice to be able to just upload whatever i meed from there without having to go thru all this odin stuff...Never had to with my att skyrocket 2
Why did you buy rom manager pro. Rom Manager can not flash recoveries on this phone. Recoveries are packed into the initramfs of our kernel unlike most phones. At best you get a temp flash which by the way has proven to be an unsafe thing.
I am not familiar if anyone has any updated safe repacks with just plain stock cwm. But there are custom recoveries based on it for stock TW roms. CM9 has stock CWM and TWRP though.
I don't think the video told you to buy rom manager pro and or to try and flash recoveries with it. You flash kernels that have recoveries. You can do this with tar's in odin/mobile odin and or if you have custom recovery cwm zips then.
AHHH was about to say i just realized i needed to update the correct kernel in order for it to work...thank you for the lightning quick response tho...

Okay thanks. So i can use the agat recover to wipe caches and install zips?
