Well, I have a problem. The problem is that the recovery simply won't work. Okay, so I go into ROM Manager and flash the ClockWork Recovery. So then I reboot my Evo and I'm stuck at the Splash Screen. I thought that since I flashed a new ROM, it might just be gathering all the information up to start the recovery. So I return one hour later, and it's still on the Splash Screen. So I have to take off the battery and start it up normally and flash the Amon RA recovery. So then I reboot into recovery and it works fine. Anyone know why?
I think I read some where that rooting hwd004 phones with everything updated only recovery that is stable is ra

But I have Hardware 003. And I can flash the ClockWork Recovery from the Amon RA recovery.
So Amon Ra is working but Clockwork isnt? Just stick to Amon Ra if you have that working recovery.
So I don't want to unroot. I have amonra, clockwork, and rom manager. When I boot into recovery it goes straight to ra recovery, I have to flash the update.zip to get to clockwork. I would just like it to boot straight to clockwork or to remove ra
I installed rom manager the other day and updated to the latest version thinking that would overide ra when booting to recovery from rom manager, only for ra to come up saying 'bad' update.
I know this will more than likely be simple, I have done a few searches but not found much apart from unrooting.

you need to re run unrevoked and untick use custom recovery so it flashes clockwork or use custom and select a clockwork recovery of choice
its in the clockworkmod thread in the dev section and the amonRA thread
please read them
Hello!
You need to unrevoked again....Downolad unrevoked for your phone, BEFORE to plug your phone to your computer go in the up left corner and choose your recovery , wich can be amonra or clockwork mod, let computer do the job and voila! You are donne
Thanks you very much dudes. I was a total noob to all things root when I did mine and just followed steps from a mate. I couldn't remember how RA got on there. Cheers

Hey, so I hope you guys check this. I tried running the unrevoked again.
Only for it to seemingly get right to the end and attempt root (I thought it was just going to reflash and slap the clockwork in there) for it to say Error: failed to get root - Is your firmware too new?
Is there an easy way around this? Or is it the rom I am running??

You don't get 2 recoveries. If you 'fake flash' using ROM Manager it'll lose CWM instead of your normal recovery
You could try to S-OFF with AlphaRev iso (which will also update the recovery to CWM-AlphaRev 2.5.1.8 with dark blue color)
When you are S-OFF you can update the recovery with fastboot
If you don't want or cannot do all this, you could try to fake flash the CMW 3.2 recovery when you need it.
Fake flash means to load another recovery (3.2) while in recovery (2.5) by simply applying a zip file. You then have all the feature of the 3.2 recovery without permanently installing it.
1) put the zip with 3.2 recovery on your SD card (zip in thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1039954)
2) boot in recovery
3) apply the zip (like you would flash a rom, but it only loads the 3.2 recovery operating system without removing/deleting any file in your phone). You should notice the text color change and a few more options in the menu.
4) enjoy
Fake Flash is more or less what what Rom Manager is doing when you use it to reboot in recovery mode (but it only supports a restricted set of recovery versions that have been tuned to work with Rom Manager).
Another benefit of fake flash is that you can still use your old nandroid backups, as it it not recommended to restore with recovery X a backup made with recovery Y.
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 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.
Hi all...
Phone = Droid A855
Rooted = Yes, with "SuperOneClick"
ROM Manager v4.8.0.1
Clockworkmod v2.5.0.1
Phone was first rooted two weeks ago and phone was fully up to date at that time.
Problem:
Clockworkmod Recovery doesn't stay after I flash it and reverts back to the default factory Recovery.
Basically, I can use rom manager to download/flash clockwork mod and then I must use "reboot into recovery" for me to use the clockwork mod. this is my only chance to use it. If I restart again the factory recovery is back and what's stranger is that if I allow the phone to load and go into ROM manager, that app reports that I have the clockwork mod flashed.... If I use "reboot into recovery" OR if I do a manual shutdown and use the hold "X" method then I'm back into the factory recovery.
I can only use clockworkmod once and I must boot into shortly after the flash... if I wait too long to reboot, I've found that at some unknown time the factory recovery is once again placed on the phone.
Thank you for any help or tips on this,
TK.
No ideas?.... is there a better place to post about this?
