S-ON > You have to go through the root process again, and select a recovery you want to apply (in unrevoked select custom recovery).
S-OFF > Download the file from http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/ and flash it with Android Flasher or via Fastboot.

Rom Manager, bleh. Best way if s-off is to flash through fastboot. Once rooted, you can't use unrevoked to flash a recovery since it will error.
Punched in..

I agree, but the last version of rom manager now do real flash if u are s-off..so no more fake flash...even i dont use it, but for newbie maybe is the easy way to flash teh recovery if theya re s-off
Well, I have downloaded this file from here: http://www.clockworkmod.com/recovery_images.html
For my Desire, with file name: "recovery-clockwork-5.0.1.0-bravo.img" so, I am just wondering if I can flash this file in order to update my ClockWorkMod to latest version, I have 2.5 installed already, phone rooted and S-OFF
Can I flash this .img file using recovery mode? by selecting what?
thanks in advance

Please spare us... Use the foolproof method:
1. download rom manager from market.
2. press "flash clockworkmod recovery"
DONE... no more trouble for any of us

Hi, if I install the clockwork mod recovery, how do I get the standard one back if I don't like it?
And another question, if I install a RUU file, will it get the standard one back?
thanks
If you install a RUU file, your recovery will still be the same. Correct me if I'm wrong
That's correct. If you flash an RUU, the recovery will be original...
is there a way to retrieve the original recovery without flashing a RUU?

I flashed clockmod recovery img via fastboot recovery method after S-Off, but right now I can't get into recovery mode either from fastboot or Rom Manager. Is there any way to restore it? Sorry for my English.
Thank you in advance.
uninstall reinstall rom manager, first, otherwise restore a backup from rom manager and try again??? or run unrevoked again
Thank you for your advice. Will give it a try later today.
Just wonder is it possible to place img file under specific folder via Root Explorer to get recovery work again?

you need to flash the .img to your device to have it permanent, like the above poster said, just run unrevoked again
Yes add image to SD, see this thread
Thank you very much. Will run unrevoked after work.
Have a nice day.
Sorry. One more question.
Is it possible to flash AmonRA recovery instead of Clockmod onw when I run unrevoked again?
Just an update. I flash AmonRA recovery with 1 click Andorid Flasher V1.5 and it's done is a second. Glad that have my recovery back finally.
Thank you for pedaah & Andorid Hero.
hi
id like to update my clockwork recovery to 2.5.1.8 but its an .img
im coming from a galaxy s where it was an update.zip you flashed
im s-on
regards
For update that, you need to have S-OFF!
Or root it again via unrevoked and select a custom file (in your case 2.5.1.8.img)

Thanks!

How are you flashing?
Off thou flash it through recovery your just fake flashing it. You need to actually flash it through fastboot but you need S-Off. There is a way to do it without fastboot. Just Google it. You use the terminals emulator instead. No idea if it works though
Sent from CM7
as meaple has said, its only a fake flash, so it doesnt actually flash it.
i couldnt get it to work through the terminal method either due to protections (s-on) but i have now s-off, so it let me flash via fastboot first time
Can I do it with unrevoked or do I have to s-off? (assuming i won't make it with the terminal)

I've never been s-off and I flashed it successfully during rooting with unrevoked.

yes you can do it with unrevoked, but you would have to unroot first, and then go unrevoked with custom recovery
hi, i have the same problem, but i am s-off
i tryed to flash via android flasher, fastboot, an via recovery with the .zip file.
everytime the same Oo
Are you sure your S-OFF?
Because then it should work!

Zip is not what you need. You need to get an img file of the recovery you want to flash. You can then do that via Fastboot or Android Flasher etc. Flashing the zip from wherever is still just fake flashing.

No. you don't have to un root. You can flash unrevoked on a rooted device
If you are s on, use unrevoked. Else use the following from fast boot:
fastboot flash recovery cwm_.img

Hi.
While back I ran Revolutionary tool to S-off and root + CWM recovery.
Recently I ran official 2.3 RUU and used stock ROM. Now I want to try ICS, but I don't have CWM anymore. Revolutionary hboot and S-off is still ok. Tried running Revolutionary tool again, but it says I'm already S-off and tries to install CWM, but fails. Tried to install CWM manually through fastboot, but it hangs on sending file. I can still see the device with "fastboot devices".
Since I used a RUU, I don't have root access anymore.
Any idea on how to flash CWM?
IF u are still s-off u can flash a new recovery, click 4ext recovery on my sig, download and install the 4ext recovery updater app then flash recovery. to get root just flash superuser zip file

The 4EXT recovery updater app says it requres root access to function. But it don't have root
install superuser

How can that help me, when I don't have root access? The superuser apk itself does no good without root access. The 4EXT app need busybox, and busybox needs root.
This is the situation:
I want a custom recovery. But for that, I need root. And to get root, I need a custom recovery. It is an evil circle! But since I have Revolutionary hboot and S-OFF, there must be some way I can get a custom recovery.

The first step:
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager/
Download recovery image and flash it via fastboot, or using some flasher.
Then like you did before flash Superuser .zip:
http://androidsu.com/superuser/
After that you'll have root access and you can flash 4ext recovery as well.

I quote myself from my initial post:
"Tried to install CWM manually through fastboot, but it hangs on sending file. I can still see the device with "fastboot devices"."
So that don't work for me, sorry. Seems I can't write to recovery partition. Didn't work with the Revolutionary tool either. The only thing I can think of, that could work, is if the Revolutionary tool could see the device as untouched by the tool, and start the process from the beginning.
Did you try with erase recovery command, and then flash recovery?
If that doesn't work, 2.3 RUU and start from scratch.

Seems to hang on erase command too. Screenshot:
I'll try to do another RUU.
I managed to flash CWM! Just had to change computers. Weird, since my Windows is fairly fresh and had all the right drivers.
