nosympathy wanted to know what recovery you're using: Clockwork or Amon Ra?

Reflash your recovery.

So your problem is only that you can't get into recovery? If it still boots up, then just turn it on and use ROM manager to flash clockwork recovery back on the phone. You should be good to go after that.

Which Recovery Should I Use ?

AmonRA or Clockworkmod ?
Which is better overall and more modern?

+1. I've had issues with clockwork but nine with amon. RA all the way I say.

ClockworkMod is really good, but when things go wrong, amon_RA is usually needed to right the wrong. Go with amon_RA.

RA has never failed me and it seems to be requested to use with the newer roms coming out ...

Your better off with RA because it works, clockwork is good after you get your wimax back up from RA ( yes clockwork backs it up too but the more the merrier) for its integration with rom manager making flashing and backing up very easy.

amon ra for sure.

I used Clockwork for a good number of months. It appeared good and I was able to rename along with a variety of other functions. I noticed something different after switching to Amon Ra. Everything seemed to back up and wipe better. Plus it partitions much better than clockwork. Go with Amon Ra and never turn back.

Download the PC36IMG.zip of Amon Ra and put it on the root of your SD card. Don't rename it. Turn the phone off, then hold the volume down and power buttons at the same time until the phone turns on to a white screen with Androids skateboarding. This is the bootloader. It will scan and detect the file - when it asks you to update, choose yes with the volume up button. When it asks you to reboot choose no, then choose recovery from the menu. You should boot into Amon Ra.
In the bootloader and recovery, you'll need to use the volume buttons to move up and down, then once you've highlighted what you want to do, press the power button to select it.

You learn more with ra. Its manual and ussualy makes no errors

Amon Ra

Can I flash Among Ra when I root with Revolutionary instead CWM? Bootloader? Or do I need to use flash alternate recovery in ROM manager after root?

Grab a PC36IMG of Amon Ra from the thread in development. Be sure that it's named PC36IMG.zip exactly - don't add the zip if you don't see it. Put it on the root of your SD card, boot into hboot, accept the update. Decline to reboot if you want to go ahead and go into recovery.
Or you can download the properly named PC36IMG of Amon Ra here.

When it says flash CWM during the root process should I say no and flash this in bootloader right after?

Yeah, no reason to flash CWM if you're just going to flash Amon Ra when you're done.

Ok, I think I got it. Sorry kinda new to this. If I don't flash a recovery and boot my phone I will still be able to boot into bootloader to flash Amon, yes?

Yes, because you don't flash the recovery in the recovery menu, you do it from the bootloader, to get a recovery.

Thank you both very much, and thanks Plainjane for the link.

Well I don't know where exactly, but you should be able to. Using root explorer or es file manager, ect, should let you see it for sure. i can't say exactly where, as I'm unpartitioned.

Yea, not sure where either. I'll post it as a separate question. Thanks very much for the help.

Sent from my Evo using XDA App

You can install ROM Manager and flash CWM. You can also look around for the PC36IMG file for CWM.

I use amon. Cwm doesn't wipe cache and dalvik properly and can cause intermittent stability issues with the Rom even days later after flashing..

Recovery?

How do I get rom and kernel manager to use amon ra recovery instead of clockwork mod? Any help is appreciated
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

You don't. You learn how to flash a ROM/kernel via Among RA by reading one of a thousand tutorials on this forum. Use the search feature. That's what its there for.

Ok. I already have amon ra recovery. I have flashed many different things using it. I was merely wondering if you could make rom manager work with, since long ago I paid for the pro version. Thanks for the speedy replies and confirming.
