This is my guess:
Did you flash other recovery (e.g CWM) before applying the update.zip?
It happens to me before, the update.zip not working.
To do this, need the original recovery.
So if you can:
1) Flash back original 2.3.6 ROM
2) Apply the update.zip using the ORIGINAL recovery.
Then, you flash CWM.

Cannot root?!?

Rooting my GT-I8150 on GB 2.3.6 fails with recovery method (sdcard), because I do not get to the recovery menu - instead it updates something straight away and then (without me giving a chance to read the few lines it writes on the screen) the phone reboots
(update.zip is in mnt/sdcard/update.zip)

If you don't want to keep using your Android 2.3.6 and if your goal is to flash KK on your phone, then you might try this method:
Optional step: make a backup of your contacts, sms, calendar entries and whatnot using Go Backup Pro (you can get it from Google Play store). Or, if you're planning on going back to Samsung stock 2.3.6, after flashing CWM Recovery (see below), make a nandroid backup of the stock ROM (you can find the option under "backup and restore" in CWM Recovery).
Also, if you've got documents, pictures etc, you might want to make a backup of those as well somewhere on your computer, or the External SD card.
1. Flash this CWM Recovery using ODIN (+ Samsung USB driver, of course), or Flashify (you can get it from Google Play Store) or via ADB
2. Get the KK ROM and the Gapps from here and save them on your External SD card.
3. Enter CWM (long press Menu button + Volume Up + Power button until you see the CWM logo, then release the power button) and:
select "wipe data / factory reset"
go to "mounts & storage" and format /system. This is extremely important!
under the same menu, format /sdcard0 (be careful NOT to format /sdcard1 by mistake)
install CM11 (from the external sd)
install Gapps for KK (from the external sd)
reboot your phone
Same procedure can be applied when flashing any custom ROM (minus the first step which you will only need to do once).

i refer to this thread. its good

Re-flash the Stock Gingerbread and use its Stock Recovery for flashing the "update.zip" file from internal SD card. No fail.

[HOWTO] If you flashed the original RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.* and got the new hboot

You will have noticed you can't 'fastboot boot' the recovery image again for rooting or using the new recovery image.
However:
You can use flashrec to flash the patched recovery, from where you can do all the usual stuff (and even put the old hboot back on if you want!)
Notice:
flashrec is using an exploit that isn't patched yet in the current kernel used by HTC, however if/when HTC patches this, flashrec will stop working.
So for now it's ok but a next version might have patched this, so keep this in mind !
Thanks for the original headsup by Magnus and Modaco, adapted from here
Quick Howto:
1. On your phone, goto Settings, Applications, and make sure Unknown source is checked ON.
2. On your phone, goto Settings, SD card and phone storage, and click Unmount SD card.
3. Then click Format SD card (it should automatically remount after this).
4. Plug the phone into the compuer via USB, then pull down the notification bar and click on the SD card notification. Then click mount.
5. Download this APK and recovery image and save it to your computer:
flashrec-20090815.apk
Cyanogen’s / Modaco Hero Recovery Image
Update: updated flashrec here
6. Extract the cm-hero-recovery.img out of the MoDaCoPatchedRecovery-1.0.zip and put it somewhere on your computer.
7. Save both the cm-hero-recovery.img and the flashrec-20090815.apk to your computer, then copy them both to your SD card
(do NOT put them inside any folders on the SD card, just put them in the root of the SD card itself).
8. Unplug the phone from the computer once they are downloaded to the SD card.
9. Goto the Market and download Linda File Manager or any file manager program if you do not already have one.
10. Open the file manager and goto SDCard and then find the flashrec-20090815.apk file and click on it.
If asked, tell it to use Package Installer to open it. It should automatically install the apk.
11. Open the FlashRec program and click on Backup Recovery Image and wait for it to finish.
12. Once done, click on the empty text box in the FlashRec program and type:
sdcard/cm-hero-recovery.img
Then click on the Flash Custom Recovery Image button and wait for it to finish.
13. Turn off the phone and turn it on into Recovery mode by holding down Home and Power to turn it on
(keep holding until the recovery screen comes up has a bunch of text on a black background).
As long as that screen comes up, you have done it correctly and can now go and load other ROM/hboot/whatever.
Excellent, worked perfectly! Thanks!
I flashed the new official update from HTC, but i do got a nandroid from before when my phone was rooted, do you know if restoring that will make any changes to the hboot? And will i get root again? Or is this method that you posted over, the only way so far?
Root
I did all this with the orginal 2.73 update and booted in to the recovery mode (worked fine..) but i still dont hav root
I tried the other method from theunlockr.com to but still no root..
I followed this excellent tutorial, then I just ran the root tutorial again. Worked flawlessly.
Worked fine - thx m8
Is it possible to make this without a sd card?
Because my phone doesn't detect my sd card. Now i have the problem that i can't do anything on my phone because i can't get into recovery mode...
Anyone who knowes a solution???
Thanks in advance.
works perfectly, many thanks !
I get this "downloading 'boot.img'... FAILED (remote: not allow)" when i type "fastboot boot cm-hero-recovery.img" any one know what is wrong ?
you have uploaded the recovery image by that apk, be sure to boot your phone holding POWER+HOME NOT power+back, then you can continue to root your phone, hope i could help you
Ok, But what to do when i boot up with power+home ?
then you have to root your phone again like it is described in
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4257045&postcount=38
i would recommend you to make a backup with nandroid (just select it and push the track ball) and then continiue with

do you have a branded phone?
When I followed the instructions, everything worked, until I have to restart with Home button pressed.
I see the HERO word on my screen, but nothing else happens.
Has someone some suggestions?
I followed the instructions already twice.

SOLVED:
In the first page there is a link to flashrec-20090815.apk. That did not work for me.
I used http://code.google.com/p/flashrec/ to download the file.
Thank you for your interest in reading my post.

Can you backup your stock Recovery before flashing CWM Recovery?

for me its working well. just made backup and using SU after etc. no issue at all
but i installed cwm from ROM manager instead
How does CWM save/store its ROMS, and where does it load from? With the Xoom, without a working SD, it was not possible to use CWM.
If the onboard storage is all one volume with the OS, is the storage included in the backup, and how is the images written if the storage is needed to hold the ROMS to be flashed?

I'd like to know this too. I found something that would back it up, but you need root first. I'd like to be able to back it up before rooting if possible.

Rooting shouldn't affect the Recovery partition so you should be able to safely root then backup your stock recovery before installing ClockworkMod Recovery?
Or if someone backs up theirs you could download it and keep a copy of it?
Anyone can post here recovery.fstab ?
I have just installed Rom Manager and I get a FC but it seems to have installed the CWM OK. It successfully rebooted to CWM and I could navigate around but I didn't try flashing anything yet.
The issue may be more with Rom Manager than the recovery
Installed CWM just fine, however when i try to do a nandroid backup it says "Can't mount backup path" or when i try to browse for a zip to install "Can't mount /sdcard/".
My first guess is that it is because i encrypted my phone, but i believe it works on my Xoom, which is encrypted as well... (I will check this later when i have my Xoom nearby)
FYI, this recovery also is confirmed working on my VZW LTE version.
Backups are approximately 6-700MB and are ext4.tar files for system, data and cache.

Dude !!!
Dont post this type of posts in this thread
others will think that you flashed the recovery and got bricked your phone
please edit the above thread and tell your actual problem like you flashed using kdz updater and the bricked.I have already PMed.
After clicking on the .bat file, it does put gscript app on my phone, but it can't find the script.sh file on the sd card (there's no gscript folder as well).
Should I try the installer again? Create the folder and copy the file?
Nevermind, it's working now. I just don't know how to keep going from there. How do I install a new ROM?
After I click on the script, it does blue screen and then reboots, but not into recovery mode it just starts up like normal.
Thanks .

I had this problem too (tho i flashed manually) but when i reflashed it worked fine.But before you try reflashing it try to boot the phone into recovery using ADB
Here is how:
Plug your phone in and enable debugging.
Then open ADB and type in su and hit enter after that type reboot recovery and again enter.If you flashed the recovery correctly your phone should boot into recovery. Hope that helps
Hello!
Your tutorial is quite good and very helpful.
Everything worked as you described.
But, after the blue screen, I had an issue: my phone stops at Fastboot mode. Then I get the message "udc_start()" and it stops there, nothing happens. It doesn't start android. Can you tell how to proceed from there?
Thank in advance!
Best,

If ripping out the battery didn't help then you need to flash the recovery via fastboot.Since your phone automatically boots into bootloader ( the udc_start () state) you need to download fastboot flasher ( you can find it via google or xda search) and flash recovery from there.Just make sure you are flashing the right recovery.And then from the recovery you can flash a custom rom.

You boot into recovery and navigate to backup (in order to make nandroid backup-you can skipp this step but you won't have a stock android backup in case you dont like the new rom or it doesn't work) than navigate to flash zip from sdcard(obviously you need the rom on the sdcard) and then select the rom and then confirm flash.After that you should see a yellow progress bar after the flash is complete you reboot your device.Oh and just in case you didn't know you navigate using up and down volume buttons you confirm with menu button and you cancel/go back with back button

I did it differently because there is no working link of the recovery.zip
after rooting the phone with gingerbreak, simply download ROM Manager from play store and flash recovery from there.
hi i need original rom 2.2.2 for my phone in zip form so i can put on my sd card and flash dose anybody have this and if so could they upload it for me thanks
Works nicely! However, I had to follow the following procedure:
- Disconnect the USB cable
- Start in fastboot mode
- Type the command in the PC (it should says something like "Waiting for device")
- Connect the USB cable
Without using this procedure, I would get stuck in "Waiting for device". Hope it helps someone.

[TUTORIAL (UPDATED!!!][Unofficial CWM Recovery 5.0.2.6][ROM Manager]Work together

WARNING!
THIS NO LONGER WORKS FOR VERSIONS 4.8.184 and up.
It will continue to work as long as you don't mess with it or reflash your recovery if it's already working for you but for newer versions or ROM Manager it's even easier!
Alquez now has Unofficial Official Support!!!
For newer versions simply do the following to allow full functionality in ROM Manager and ROM Manager Premium:
1/ Flash Alquez's Unoffical 5.0.2.6 ClockworkMod recovery
2/ Install ROM Manage from the marketplace
3/ Click on Option 1 to flash CWM recovery in ROM Manager
4/ Choose "Upsupported Device"
5/ Choose "3.x"
6/ You're done!
Video Tutorial And Proof it works here.
First off. Some warnings!
*This generally works but you COULD possibly have to do a nandroid restore of your system so BACK up before you attempt!
*This DOES NOT allow you to flash downloadable ROM's from within Rom Manager!!! There are no downloadable roms for the Wildfire S. The one's you see will be for the HTC Aria!!!
*This does not allow you to use the experimental and other CWM Recoveries available from within Rom Manager!!!
What this does do:
*Allows you to make PROPER format Nandroid backups that will work in programs like Titanium Backup, etc (Although TBP now has support for "exotic" CWM files like CWMU 5.0.2.6.
*Allows the following features in Rom Manager:
-Reboot Into Recovery (Will boot into 5.0.2.7 though)
-Install ROM from SD Card
-Manage And Restore Backups
-Backup Current ROM (The most important as this method creates a by the book Nandroid backup unlike creating one from inside Unofficial 5.0.2.6)
-Fix Permissions
-Partition SD Card
How to achieve this trick and where it came from:
*Credit for the this trick goes to Insink72 and myself. Insink72 played around in Rom Manager and it started working for him. He managed to remember at one point he flashed the HTC Aria image so I figured out what he did and made it a confirmed process that can be replicated if instructions are followed.
What you are going to do is to install Unofficial CWM Recovery via hboot, install ROM Manager, then through ROM Manager leave some HTC Aria ghost code in place that enables some functions lost in the ported Unofficial version while keeping the majority of your recovery as Alquez's Unofficial 5.0.2.6
ROM Manager is going to think, and in a way it's right, that you actually have 5.0.2.7 installed.
Ready?
1/ Download Alquez's Unofficial ClockWorkMod Recovery 5.0.2.6
2/ Place the PG76IMG.zip file on your SD card's root folder
3/ Power down.
4/ Remove and replace battery
5/ Press Volume Down and Power at the same time to boot into hboot
6/ When it finds the PG76IMG.zip press volume up to flash it and reboot the phone.
7/ Boot to the OS and download Rom Manager from the Android Market and install it.
8/ Run ROM Manager
9/ Choose the first option "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"

11/ When done power down again
12/ Remove and replace battery
13/ Press Volume Down and Power to boot into Hboot
14/ Press Volume Up to AGAIN flash Unofficial 5.0.2.6 recovery
15/ Reboot phone and go into operating system (At this point look at troubleshooting below if it doesn't boot)
16/ Rename or remove the PG76IMG.zip from your SD card's root folder (I rename mine to CWMPG76IMG.zip and leave it there)
17/ Go to Rom Manager. It should say you now have 5.0.2.7 installed
That's it! You inserted the remaining code required to backup your rom from ROM Manager!
To verify it choose "Backup Current ROM then click ok. it should reboot to the ghosted bit of 5.0.2.7 code in ugly green and pink and start making a NANDROID backup followed by an auto reboot.
If you reboot into recovery it should boot to the nicely coloured 5.0.2.6
Troubleshooting:
If your OS gets stuck on the boot splash screen (not very likely but can happen):
1/ Power Down
2/ Remove the PG76IMG.zip from your SD card using a card reader and and computer or via fastboot USB in the phone
3/ Replace SD card and replace battery
4/ Volume down and Power to get to Hboot then enter recovery 5.0.2.6
5/ Wipe Data/Factory Reset
6/ Mounts and Storage/Format System
7/ Advanced/Wipe Dalvik Cache
8/ Backup and restore/Restore your last backup made before the freeze.
9/ Reinstall ClockworkMod Rom Manager from Android Market
Good to go!
PLEASE CLICK THANKS IF THIS HELPED YOU!

Thanks, worked like a charm
Nice tut. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you have the unofficial installed, can't you just hit settings in ROM manager and manually override as an aria?

Uh, s-on is still there after unlocking. Bootloader unlock does NOT give S-OFF.

Sorry for my misunderstanding.
I'm really confused, and maybe this reply is OT, but i don't have understand if
i can use Clockwork on WFS ( in the market version i don't see the WildFire S phone)
and,
the real problem, i don't know how i can FULL DUMP the actual original rom present in my phone.
If i have understand well, i can't install the recovery because my phone have S-ON, but i can install other rom.
In this case i can install a new rom, but i can't make a full dump.
It's correct?
Sorry again for OT reply, and thank you very much for your patience

You can use clockworkmod with htcdev unlock, you only need to download the one from alquez and flash it in bootloader or with fastboot.
If you got it you can backup yours and flash new roms with it.
This tut here is just a little hack to get rommanager and clockworkmod work together even if it's not officially supported.

This is definitely cool.

Extract the recovery from the zip file ans flash it via fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
I have the ROM Manager with CM7, but I don't really get why it's here... Sounds like the recovery mode? Will I keep my settings/apps/etc if I install a new update or a new ROM?

[Q] Stuck with a Softbrick device during installing custom rom CM11

Hi there,
I've been working on rooting my htc one X bought in Australia locked to vodafone and now unlocked and used for a while.
I had been planning on rooting the phone for a while and after reading up multiple posts I chose to use the XDA developers video to root the phone. As the video is not very clear towards the end on the processes. But I completed the process somehow with reference to other videos and processes. However, after reading up on the best available ROMs I chose the CM11 with a basic process explained here (unable to post link)- however, that didnt help me much as there's just a basic description of what's to be done (helpful for advanced users).
But as this is my first attempt to rooting my device, I had to look up youtube on videos describing the rooting process for HTC one X. And found another video by the same author -
The author uses another ROM for the process but said this was a universal process. And I ended up copying only the CM11 zip folder of the ROM and not the Gapps zip file. Then his process didn't allow me to boot into recovery as my phone would get to the 'HTC - quietly brilliant' screen and get hang. Then I figured that the recovery image he had in the onexroot folder was an old one so I replace it with the latest image of recovery - recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.8-endeavoru. And tried again, but with no luck.
Then I went in to the HBOOT menu and selected recovery and followed the process of installing from zip file and completed the entire installation process but the phone would go in to a boot loop when I rebooted. I followed some other processes to resolve this and ended up messing up the rom image on the phone. So now i'm unable to do anything with the phone as the stock rom is wiped out and so is the custom rom. I've tried the process of sideloading the zip files but I keep getting an error message of 'device not found'. I tried using the TWRP recovery as well for pushing files, but the the phone is non responsive on the main menu screen of TWRP itself. So I've flashed back to CWM recovery but am out of ideas on how to recover the phone.
Current status of the phone:
Bootloader - Unlocked
CMW - recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.8-endeavoru
Sorry for the long description, but any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Philz recovery has an updated version available however, in its download screen it is not clear which version corresponds to the One X. There are versions of the software for One V and One S. Could you suggest which one would be the right one?
Thanks.

Hi Thant,
I was able to mount the sd card in Philz, but not sure how to copy the data. Unable to find information on that online.
Any suggestions?

Hi Thant,
Thank you so much for your help. You were completely right. I downloaded the 5.15.9 version and that let me connect the phone as a usb device and I mounted the device as usb in recovery and copied the gapps. however, there was an issue with the latest CWM that didnt let me install the ROM but philz recovery did the trick. Then again I installed the latest cwm and installed the gapps..wiped the factory data and went back to the fastboot menu, flashed the boot.img from the Rom's folder and rebooted. And now I have the android 4.4.4 working just fine!
Thank you once again for all your help! really appreciate it.
