Just wanted to let everyone know that Rom Manager now has clockworkmod 3.0.0.5 for CM7 to be flashed thru rom manager now along with the older versions for android 2.2. So no more flashing via fastboot or terminal, all our flashing and rom jumping can be done much easier all thru Rom Manager. Thanks ClockWork!
If I flashed 3 awhile back do I still press update now? Or do i select delete recovery then update?

I did re flash thru manager so it would stop telling me there was an update

So basically just.press flash recovery?

No. Scroll down to all clockworkmod recoveries and choose your version.

No i haven't. Our phone are down at my shop so i have to do everything via my cell phone. and i cannot risk my phone being down that long. and with having 28+ phones lines coming in my building it's ringing off the hook.

Forgive my n00bness, but I am on 2.5.1.2 and can do all these things. I'm excited there's a new version out and I am very, very grateful for the hard work of those responsible. just wondering if I'm missing something...What all does 3.0.0.5 bring to the Glacier?

3.0.0.5 allows you to flash gingerbread based ROMs, basically CM7. According to @cmsrc on twitter today however, there may not be a need to switch through 2.5.1.2 and 3.0.0.5 soon. No time frame on that though yet I don't believe.
Anyone know if they fixed the charging while off issue that cwm has?

I would also like to know this. Is there a way to flash the stock recovery from it using 2.5.1.3 or is there another way we need to do this through fastboot or flash it through recovery?

This is big in two ways
first of all
Previously we were not able to create a Nandroid backup. A nandroid backup is a snap shot of our OS in it's current state. So if we flash something new, a font, a boot image, what have you we are putting 100% of our faith in that flash that it will not screw anything else up. Because if it does we have to start at ground 0 again.
second of all
the developer of CWRM said that he would make the 3.x flash-able via the ROM manager when the CM7 build approached an RC status. So that isn't to far off.
So now am I gonna be able to update my rom(cm7) with rom manager automatically.

No the charging while off issue hasnt been fixed but you can use THIS METHOD now to flash the stock recovery and charge with phone off if you wish.

We have always been able to make nandroid backups from CwM recovery, just not using Rom Manager.
Here is the completely stock ROM image for the GSM Galaxy Nexus, version ITL41F. It is not rooted, if you wish to root after installing use my Superboot. System and boot images are included, recovery and baseband are not. The baseband version for ITL41F is the same (XXKK1) as ITL41D, which is posted in this topic if required.
I know this will be useful to anyone wishing to revert their phone to get a future OTA, to chefs wanting to base a ROM on it etc. etc., so here it is.
To install, flash this update zip via ClockworkMod.
Enjoy!

It's official Samsung firmware.
Thanks for the ROM - this will be useful for many I'm sure
Can I just ask - is there a reason the recovery image isn't included? It seems from recent threads that this is often requested in order to flash completely back to stock, but no-one seems to have one available. I was just wondering if it there was a specific reason why people haven't been posting it?

Sorry for cross posting on this thread. Hopefully they will release the new updated version soon.
Although it probably worth a look as it has an autoscript to restore your phone to stock by flashing multiple files.
If your phone is rooted and have CWM, Superuser and Adfree installed and you flash this what exactly happens?
Does it uninstall CWM? if not how do you access it?

As far as i know this not touching your recovery.You must lock the bootloader in order to have stock recovery.You must root it again and install rom manager to access it through UI enviroment.I dont know for sure how you can access it with button combination (i think middle volume and power button)

I think your problem is cwm recovery and not the root.You must lock the bootloader in order to have stock recovery.After that the update can installed succesfully

you have a nexus, theres only one way to do it correctly.. fastboot oem unlock, fastboot a custom recovery(cwm or i recommend twrp recovery), flash a custom rom(and kernel if you want) in your recovery, then reboot. thats all you need to do. no need for apps or hacks. thats why we buy nexus devices, for the ease. since youre already unlocked, just fastboot a recovery and flash a rom

Just download cwm and put it with your adb/fastboot files.
download the su.zip and put it onto your "sd card".
Pull up cmd prompt and access adb files
adb reboot bootloader
*make sure bootloader unlocked*
Fastboot flash recovery cwm.img
Fastboot reboot bootloader
Fastboot boot cwm.img
Then flash the su.zip

Suggestion:
At this time cwm should no longer be preached as defacto standard.
It would be better to refer to "a recovery" linking to both cwr and twrp2.
CWR is extremely antiquated and the ease of use of twrp2 is MUCH better.

I only used CWM as an example. I do see your point though.
Personally, I haven't even bothered rooting my nexus or felt the need to do so. Due to the fact that I have not rooted my nexus, I don't have a preferred recovery. I was under the impression that CWM was the preferred recovery (of the majority of nexus users) based on comments I've read in the nexus forum.
I did have my EVO & Evo 3D rooted and used both CWM and TWRP at different times. I preferred TWRP. I believe it was TWRP 1.1.1 vs CWM 4.0.1.4 iirc. I tried TWRP 2.0 but didn't like the touch interface.
I just figured I would jump in to give an easy root method to the OP. That is one of the only benefits to the HTC unlock method. The fact that it forces you to learn some things that many other people would never bother to learn, ie fastboot/adb commands. once you get those down you are pretty golden.
At any rate, you are right though. TWRP could be a better option for the OP. And based on my EVO 3D experience, I would say it probably will be the better option.

Install GNex Toolkit from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1392310. First do option 1 (drivers) and than option 7 (one-click for all). You have root and cwm, works like a charm and is the easiest way to do it.

Welcome to samsung. No s off here.No bootloader unlock. Also, current version doesnt matter. CWM is probably more widely used but twrp is better in terms of features. And for a (samsung) noob like urself, follow above advice, QBKING77 has the best tutorials

Exactly, Samsungs bootloaders aren't locked. And theres no fastboot on these. So everything is done in recovery or odin. And s off is an htc thing. And if youve never used it, definitely try twrp its worth checkin out. And since you sound like your new to this I would check out mskips toolkit. Simplifies the steps youll see in qb's vids
To sum it up tho,

I'm planning to replace CWR with TWRP and ROM Manager with GooManager. After I install GooManager and TWRP, will I need to manually delete the backups made by CWR (blobs etc.)?
Yes, if you want space on your internal storage (or wherever you're storing them). Better off deleting them because they're not compatible anyways.
Just delete the clockwork folder in your internal storage or SD card.
So is Twrp actually the better recovery to use as apposed to cwm?
I've personally found TWRP to be more consistent than CWM's touch interface... (use it on ~ 3 devices a this point... T989, T999, and hp touchpad..)
Works pretty well...

It's all up to preference honestly. I haven't had any issues with all the available recoveries but I prefer CWM 5.0.2.7 because of the Darkside scripts. (They were made specifically for CWM 5.0.2.7, but also work with TWRP last time I checked.) Never had an issue with the recovery and all the ROMs I've flashed have all worked perfectly well.

Good advice re: deleting CWM
I tried to flash a CWM recovery (not realizing it was a CWM recovery) with TWRP, and it was a mess.
I agree re: figuring it out for yourself. (I de-bricked my KF2 yesterday, thanks to a Xubuntu - Adb tutorial.)
You guys are lifesavers for Noobs like me.
