Downgrading clockwork - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been trying to back to 2.5.xx cuz 3.0.xx isn't allowing me to flash a kernal. Went to rom manager it it only shows 3.0 versions. Also it gives me an error if try flash alt recovery ie. RA amon. Do I need a pmg file and flash through hboot? If so anyone have it?
Thanks in advance

You could also download "Inc bits" from the market. App made by Doug that links to his website for easy hboot flashable downloads.

S-on and S-off?

Can someone please explain what s on and s off means. I see it on a lot of threads but have no idea what it means.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
S = security when its on you need a signed ruu or zip from HTC. But the new bootloader that shipped with the gingerbread update won't allow downgrading to a previous bootloader.With it off you can flash a custom backup utility like amon clockwork or twrp
To install custom roms
S on or off is basicly a security check

Clockwork mod question

So i rooted for the very first time using revolutionary. Now i want to flash synergy rls2 but apparently my cwm needs to be 3.0.0.7 or higher but mine says 3.0.0.5. How do i update it?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Download ROM Manager. Then at the top you can download and install the latest.

You talking about synergy or cwm?

Make your life easier. Get Amon Ra and then you can do proper wipes, nandroids and flashes

My response was under the impression that you have a working ROM. So I suggested to upgrade CW by using the app called ROM Manager (free on the market).
I agree with HIPKAT, you should use Amon-RA. It'll be in the bottom portion of the ROM Manager app titled ALTERNATE RECOVERIES (not yelling)

Hey dvtmg, which root method did you use? Most likely, you have the stock android recovery which will not allow you to do a nandroid backup, or flash roms. You will need a custom recovery (CWM, Rogue, ACS) to begin either of those processes.
I autoroot method

If you run auto root I think it's option 3 to add cwm. Not sure though but check it out.

Yes option 3 is for installing CWM only. As far as a rom I would recommend calk's it will give you the features you are looking for.

You need Amon or clockworkmod recovery in the form of a PC36IMG.zip file that you can place on the SDcard and run through the bootloader. You will also need a superuser.zip file to flash from your recovery to gain root permissions. Both can probably be found with a google search.

I know that, I've rooted my OG and 3D. I know all about the superuser and stuff. This is just that the hboot wouldnt let me fastboot a recovery.

You cannot use fastboot with Hboot 2.10 if that's what you're looking for.

Fastbooting a Recovery will only work with Hboots 0.76 (ENGINEERING), 6.16 (Revolutionary upgrade from 2.16), and 2.18 (after unlocking).

Ahh.. that's right. I did it with 2.18
