[Q] How to comletely remove Clockworkmod

Hey, I rooted, s-off/hbooted my phone and used Clockworkmod to install a ROM.
Now it won't go away no matter what I've tried and I want to be able to turn my phone off and charge it without seeing that annoying recovery screen.
I've backed up all my apps on to SD, wiped data and factory resetted with CWM and the phones built in factory reset yet it still comes back to haunt me.
What do I need to do to make this go away and revert my phone back to it's original out of box state?
CWM should come with an uninstall guide and a notice of how annoying this is, I see it's quite a widespread problem for everyone trying to calibrate the battery with no clear answer

Install the correct HTC RUU for your desire hd.

Much appreciated, you get my first thanks.
For anyone else in need here's where I got mine (every other ROM and RUU is there too)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868610
Just to be sure, can I just put the RUU on my storage card and use CWM recovery to install it?

Thanks for the.. thanks lol
I don't know but it really doesn't matter, better if you flash it from bootloader. If you were eng hboot s-off then your dhd will become 100% stock (if you installed the correct htc ruu). If you were radio s-off you will still have s-off afterwards. I don't think this affects warrentee issues as long as you have installed the correct rom.
On another note, I am sure I read somewhere some instructions on how to calibrate your battery and fix this problem. But you may have to do a little searching for it.

even on stock the phone goes into recovery anyway just it don't show the recovery screen. reason it does so i've read is for the led light to come on lol
spookamiester that link just brings you back to this thread so i've placed a link to all HD files and it has all the RUU files there
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841207

Maybe I am being simple but I see this posted everywhere as a problem, it in no way affects battery calibration, yes when the phone is turned off and plugged in it boots into recovery (it also does this with the stock ROM) so what? It's still charging and from CW you can then wipe the battery stats which is required to complete your calibration anyway.
What exactly is the problem with it booting into CW when turned off and plugged in

and to answer the question, reflash with the appropriate RUU

Or just flash recovery.img from a stock rom

Is the s-off that stops the receiving of OTA's ?

First of all I'd like to thank everyone for the responses, should be able to get things sorted now.
In response to the charging in CWM, I tried it for over an hour after full charge on and the LED remained amber, I turned the phone back on and the battery was at 99% which leads me to believe that it doesn't actually charge in CWM recovery, I tried this on stock and within 10 minutes after full charge on I got the green light off. I've asked in other threads if anyone can confirm the phone charge whilst in CWM but so far no confirmation, just similar results.
I'll keep my eyes pealed for answers but I don't think it works with CWM and can't find a way to charge whilst off without CWM recovery popping up.

I have spent quite a while in recovery and I am fairly sure it's charging I wouldnt be surprised that the green led didn't function though? I don't really see how it wouldn't charge surely it a hardware thing when the power is attached?
Update: I use QtADB to give a GUI interface to ADB, have spent the past 15 minutes monitoring the battery state whilst in Clockwork recovery and it is most defintetly charging so you needn't worry about that

I bought the phone from Hong Kong with stock ROM. Rooted, S-Off and installed CWM but never flashed any ROM. But I have same the problem, screen will boot to recovery when I want to charge. I found there are a lot of DHD guys have the same problem here in China or Hong Kong..... and no solution found in any forum here yet. Some said it's a bug on CWM.
Anyway. I found an alternative myself. Instead of using the DHD original charger, I used the I9000 charger to charge the DHD. It worked perfectly (100% charged) and no recovery screen appeared so far......

Hey guys!
I have the original Desire HD stock ROM but I have clockwork mod recovery.
Could you guys provide a step by step guide on how to remove and replace with original recovery image?
I would really appreciate all the help!

I have a file recovery.img. How do I flash it to the DHD?

I'd like to know this as well. I have the Clockwork bootloader installed. It's OK, but I changed my mind - I'd like to keep this phone as close as possible to factory-standard and use a different phone for hacking. Is there a step-by-step guide to reverting a DHD back to normal so I can benefit from the regular OTA updates?
Thanks!

Reflashing the ruu is the hard and long way.
Just download the stock recovery.img which west2cool was good enough to post for me. (Cheers again I didn't really feel like installing windoze just for that).
Then use fastboot - "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

And make sure it is FASTBOOT mode. Flashing fails otherwise (unless I did something stupid).

Sorry, I'm a newb at this.
When I boot by doing vol-down + pwr I get a mainly white screen with three Androids skateboarding at the bottom. At the top it says
ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.85.0007
The top option is "FASTBOOT", so I press pwr once to select that.
Next I see four options:
BOOTLOADER
REBOOT
REBOOT BOOTLOADER
POWER DOWN
I do not see an option to reflash a recover image.
If I go into "RECOVERY", I see the green text on a black background of ClockworkMod v2.5.1.3. There is an option to apply an update.zip, however that's clearly not the same thing as I was instructed to do.
Detailed step by step instructions would be much appreciated!
THANKS!

I'm resurrecting my laptop with ubuntu 10.10 x64 right now (so I can build gingerbread) so can't help until later. If someone doesn't beat me to it, I will up a proper set if instructions along with the links you will need once my laptop is fully functional again.

Ok buddy, my lappy lives again
1. Download the recovery.zip posted earlier on in the thread.
2. Extract recovery.img from the recovery.zip (best to extract it somewhere easy like a new folder called c:\fastboot)
3. Download fastboot from here. http://developer.htc.com/adp.html#s2
4. Make sure fastboot.exe and recovery.img are in the same directory (e.g. c:\fastboot)
5. Reboot your phone as you did before (while holding vol down + power)
6. Select fastboot and push the power button
7. Plug your phone into your computer - it should change the message to "FASTBOOT USB"
8. Open a terminal (push start button and type in "cmd" to get one if you don't know how).
9. Type "cd c:\fastboot" and press enter.
10. Type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
11. You should see a message which says something like sending ... send complete ... done.
12. To test: Push the power button on your phone once, push volume down once to highlight recovery, push power button. It should boot you to a screen with a red triangle.
13. Push vol up + power button to bring up the stock recovery menu
14. Push power button to reboot
Hopefully thats detailed enough

Boot into recovery automatically?

Hello,
i ENG S-off my DHD recently and i'm using CWM recovery.
when i fully switch off (power off) my DHD and plug the ac power cable to the DHD, the recovery will start automatically, how could i solve this problem ? Thanks !~~
Happy new year ~~~

You can't solve it. The hardware is set up to take you into the recovery system when you plug a charger in. Obviously its not an issue on the stock recovery because it is designed to do this. CWM doesn't support this feature however.

[SOLVED] [Q] Can't charge, even with CWM 5.8.3.1

tl;dr: Apparently, I can't charge my phone with CWM 5.8.3.1. I need 30% to recover my HTC One X.
(I found the solution. See at the end)
So I bricked my phone.
I need to use the RUU to recover it. To use the RUU, I need at least 30% of battery.
I can boot to hboot, fastboot, recovery and HTC white screen.
I installed CWM 5.8.3.1.
On hboot and fastboot, it doesn't seem to charge.
On the HTC screen, I see the red light, but after a while, it just shuts down (empty batter I guess).
On revocery (CWM 5.8.3.1), after ~20 minutes, it shuts down (no red light while in recovery).
The max I can get is 3698mV (from fastboot getvar battery-voltage).
Then `fastboot getvar battery-status` tells me "low" (sometimes "good" for a couple of minutes).
I tried charging with the HTC charger (socket) and with my computer.
Questions:
- any alternative method to charge my phone?
- how much is 30%? I think 3690mV is 20%.
- is it a know problem that some phones can't charge even with WM 5.8.3.1?
- how can I know, for sure, that my phone is charging? Is using `fastboot getvar battery-voltage` the right way to do it?
Solution:
1) Make sure to have CWM 5.8.3.1. You don't need to be in recovery mode to charge. But you need CWM.
2) unplug the phone. switch off the phone via the fastboot menu. Do it twice if it reboots
3) plug your phone once off. Wait 3 hours. (red light). It works because your have CWM 5.8.3.1 installed.
In the meantime, run the RUU software (but don't click on any button). Find the rom.zip file somewhere in %TEMP%.. Extract boot_signed.img and recovery_signed.img (you need to use 7zip)
4) after 3 hours, your phone should be > 4000mV
5) fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
6) fastboot flash boot recovery_signed.img
7) relock your phone: fastboot oem lock
8) Use the RUU software
9) get a beer.

Sorry to hear that.
Post the same in the official cwm thread, so someone can help you.

Hi,
I had a similar issue yesterday when I was resurrecting my phone from almost dead. have a read, I updated it with what I did to get the RUU flashed.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1643483

i thought it charged but didn't show a light. if it isn't charged after a few hours, then i would ask in the CWM thread to let them know it isn't working.

Ok, I managed to unbrick my phone (yeah!).
I have updated the original post with the solution.
Cosmicovertones, I have been reading your other messages on other threads. It helped me a lot. Thank you for that!

No problem! Glad my bad experience is of some help to others!!

HELP
i have an HTC one X+ 64g (if that matters) US version. The problem I am having is I recently dropped it and when I must have knocked something lose inside of the charging port. I know that it has the pogo pin charging option for the international version ( supposedly slightly larger than US version) and the only dock with pogo pins i can find is for that version. I need to know if there is a Pogo pin charge dock for the version I have and if not what are the 5 little connectors on back for and is there an alternate charging method? PLEASE HELP ME!
P.S Has anyone else with the HTC one x experienced the problem with noise cancelling speaker?? My phone only worked on speaker, from what I have read it was a pretty common problem with the phone.

i've gone through other threads that seems to have same problem but i could not understand much of the terms used in those.. so plz i need a detailed help

Can you feel 3/5/7 vibrates when holding power button?

What did you try to do actually?
It's a phone sync software and not a ROM update which you have mentioned.
It seems that there might be problem with your battery. Check it first.

Did you root phone earlier? or
Is your phone's Bootloader unlocked?

If your bootloader is unlocked and your device rooted, install CWM Recovery via ADB, then download your ROM as a ZIP and install using CWM.
If you're not unlocked/rooted, do that first, again via ADB.

i guess the phone it is now useless because another guys says that
"Its bricked if you cant boot to hboot with vol-d + pwr. Srry only way is to send to htc"
so i guess that's the end of it

today i pressed both vol + and down and pressed power button.. the phone gave 7 vibrations and its LED turned on.
what does that mean? is there way to fix it somehow?

[Q] Have clockworkmod related trouble please help

Hi guys,
First off I'm new to this forum so sorry if I do something wrong here without realising. Anyway, at the moment I just need one query answered about my wildfire.
1) Could anyone give me a working link to a PC49IMG.zip file for upgrading my clockworkmod recovery to 5.0.2.8 (at the moment I'm using 4.0.4 and I don't get the green LED light when off-mode charging which i heard is fixed after 4.1)? I have no clue how to flash by fastboot or Android SDK and so need to flash it via hboot. This would be of great assistance to me.
Note: I'm currently not having the off-mode charging bug which requires you to take your battery out then put it back in, just not getting a green LED while charging phone when off.
Thanks in advance
