Please help! Broken recovery!!! - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have rooted my htc desire with Unrevoked, and installed clockworkmod 2.5.0.7 recovery. The thing is that the recovery doesn't. It gives me the following errors:
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't find MISC:
The recovery doesn't work at all. ANYTHING I try to do ends up with the errors above. And that's why I can't flash a new recovery image.
Could anyone help me?
Phone spects:
Htc desire
Android 2.2 stock rom
Clockworkmod 2.5.0.7
Hboot 0.93
S-on
How can I fix my recovery?
P.S. If you would like, I could post the whole error log exported from the recovery.

Wipe cache from recovery.

Do you have a PVT 4 device? If that is the case, you need AmonRA or never CWM.

Yeah I had this when I was starting out. PVT-4 device. I just flashed a custom recovery (AmonRA) when I did unrevoked instead of the default one.

LOL, WHY DO YOU OPEN TWO THREADS????

[solved] Clockwork recovery unable to do nandroid backup

Hi,
I got myself an unbranded HTC Desire GSM which I have rooted using the latest unrevoked (3.21) and after that I have applied alpharev's S-OFF patch using the boot-cd supplied.
Now I wanted to do a nandroid backup but ClockworkMod Recovery presents the following output:
ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.7
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't find MISC:
If I try to do the nandroid backup ignoring the above, backup fails with:
Backing up boot...
Error while dumping boot imgae!
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't find MISC:
Any ideas?
Cheers,
toskala
Okay, got it solved myself.
Seems Amon-RA recovery works as expected and is actually creating nandroid backups.
I pushed it using unrevoked again but had to uninstall zysploit first from the phone as it was causing unrevoked to interrupt the after the first reboot.

[Q] Error in Recovery and Flashing! Help!

Ok, I'm a new Desire user and rooted the phone using unrevoked 3.32, I went into ClorkworkMod 2.5.0.7 and this is the error:
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log

I followed the steps, and I don't know what I did wrong. I can't flash a new ROM (Oxygen 2.1.2). Here's the error:
Installing update...
assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img"."boot")
E:error in /sdcard/update-oxygen-2.1.2-signed.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
Can anyone guide me?
Fake flash CWM again using Rom Manager! Or does Rom manager say you have latest installed ?
Use AmonRa recovery. I had the same error with CWM.

Your phone is PVT4 Model I think.
You must use AmonRa 2.0+ or the latest CWM 3.x.x.x. to get it fully working.

follow the wiki!
if recovery didnt flash right see if you have fastboot in bootloader and reflash it. also double check that hboot flashed correctly by verifying the version with the wiki.
always always follow the wiki. ive never had to downgrade yet so i dont know what it consists of other than getting you back to stock 1.34 or lower. pm me if you need more advice.

[Q] Wrestling with CWM errors

I'm sure a lot of you have heard this story before, but I'd love to know if there is some solution to this problem buried in the internet that I haven't found yet. Basically, every time I flash Clockworkmod Revocery, it's only a matter of time before I start getting errors along the lines of:
Code:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
These errors basically render the recovery useless, meaning I have to reflash it to get rid of the errors. This only works for a little while before the errors return. I've been jumping from flashing CWM 3.0.0.8 and 5.0.2.0 through hboot for the past few weeks and I'm getting sick of it. Does anyone have any suggestions for this problem? Thanks.
Phone Info
HTC Droid Incredible (ADR6300)
Cyanogenmod 7.1.0
Android 2.3.7
Clockworkmod Recovery 3.0.0.8 (Constantly jumping between this and 5.0.2.0)
Incredikernel 2.6.38.8 (10/08/11)
HBOOT 0.92.0000
Radio 2.15.10.07.07
S-OFF
Have you checked "Erase Recovery" in Rom Manager prior to installing different CWM's?
I can never flash through ROM Manager. Every time I do I get stuck at the htc Incredible screen. Hboot is the only way that works for me. I just tried your suggestion with the same results I just mentioned.

[Q] E:Can't open CACHE:recovery/log

In recovery i get this error message: E:Can't open CACHE:recovery/log
Also,
I tried to install a zip from the sdcard and i get this: E:Can't mount SDCARD:update.zip
Anyone have any ideas.
I am running WinVista Ultimate x64
tried different recovery?
I don't know any other recovery method.
err what? lol
go to my guide and look at flashing custom recovery. See if problem persists.
move recovery log to sd and manually flash zip.

How are these relevant?
Do you have a PVT4 Desire? What is your recovery etc.
Try giving us USEFUL info

I have updated my signature, hopefully the rest of the info you need is there, if not let us know. Thanks
Use fastboot to flash new recovery. If you want to know how to this, check bortak's guide. He did not wrote because he was bored.
I managed to find a recovery.img from somewhere and i'm back in recovery mode. But I still have these errors i'm faced with.
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't find MISC:
As soon as this is sorted i can then find out why i can't format or mount the system, i won't be able to re-install my rom otherwise.
Was it really necessary to create another thread with same problem?
Which recovery did you flash?
Please post information from your Hboot! You get there if you turn your phone off, and press and hold first volume down and then power button for a few seconds. It's a white screen with three androids at the bottom and the import information is top left.
