What am I doing wrong? Loading baconbits.

So I perm rooted and it says S-Off in fastboot and I have superuser access I believe.
I got rom manager and downloaded clockwork through rm. I try to install rom from SD card, select the baconbits rom, it asks to backup or clear, I have tried both.
The phone boots to htc screen, then shows a black screen with a phone and a red symbol over it. I waited 20 minutes on that screen and nothing happened.
I was able to push vol up and power to get a console but I can't load anything there. It will reboot just fine after that but I have no changes and still cannot overclock.
Does this have something to do with the user keys or whatever?
Thanks in advance for reading this and any help that gets offered. I hate to have my first post on a forum being a "help me" post.

Go into Rom Manager and try to flash Clockwork recovery again. This has happened to a lot of people... Flash it a second time, and it should be good.

Did you download the "g2-recovery-test-keys.img" from the 3rd post quoted below?
Place that file in the C:/android/tools or whatever your cd line is, which should in the tools folder. Now go the 6th step. FYI the sixth step I tried from fastboot and recovery, none worked until I reinstalled the drivers my computer kept prompting me for and immedatly got the OKAY's from the 7th step.
Edit: The code "fastboot flash recovery g2-recovery-test-keys.img" should be copied pasted onto your cmd.

Noob walkthrough:
1.Setup Android SDK and install drivers/udev rules as needed
2. S-Off your g2 http://goo.gl/Sc134
4. Copy vision-baconbits-0.3.zip to your sdcard, rename it update.zip (you can do this via adb using: adb push vision-baconbits-0.3.zip /sdcard/update.zip)
5. Reboot to fastboot mode (adb reboot bootloader)
6. Flash the recovery http://n0rp.chemlab.org/android/vision/g2-recovery-test-keys.img : fastboot flash recovery g2-recovery-test-keys.img (if you get 'waiting for device' your phone either isnt in fastboot mode, or you will need to fix your sdk drivers)
7. You should get two 'OKAY's once recovery flash is complete
8. Press the power button once; then the vol down button to highlight 'recovery'; then the power button again to select the 'recovery' option
9. The phone will reboot to recovery
10. Press volume up+power to show the recovery menu
11. Select the 'Apply:update.zip' option, using volume keys to navigate, and power button as [enter]
12. Once the zip applies, reboot
If you get signature verification errors on the zip, it means your fastboot flash of recovery failed to apply, redo it

Bingo, That worked. Glad it was that simple. I actually had to flash clockwork a third time to get it to go all the way.

How to install update 1.84 if you have clockworkmod recovery

I received a notification of the new updates. unfortunately when I tried to update I get the triangle with the android and an exclamation mark. When I press the home button clockworkmod recovery will show up with a text about not being able to find /sdcard/download/FOTA.......
anyway what I did was...
1. download this stock recovery3
2. unzip the recovery.img
3. connect my DHD to the computer
4. copied recovery.img to sdcard
5. open terminal emulator on my phone
6. typed the following commands
$ su
# dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21
WARNING! dd is a linux command that copies source to destination literally.
"if" is the input file and
"of" is the output file.
/dev/block/mmcblk0p21 is the recovery partition. don't attempt to write to other partitions unless you know what you are doing. and that is not a letter "O" but rather a "0" (zero)
that's about it...
I restarted my phone and hold the volume down checked that recovery was restored to stock.
then I proceeded with the update

Can't flash Clockworkmod Recovery

Just rooted my phone for the first time, and it went pretty smoothly until I tried to flash ClockworkMod. Nothing happens whenever I try to flash it from ROM Manager. I get a progress bar at the top for a second, then it disappears, and nothing. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app, and can't think of anything else to do.

how did you root? if you used the wiki method you should already have cwm-recovery...
push power & volume - to enter bootloader and then choose the recovery option
if this doesn´t work, post your hboot number... you have s-off? (reason: if you flashed the eng hboot while rooting you can flash the cwm-recovery through fastboot)
command: "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

Go into Terminal Emulator and type "su." If it asks you if you want it to have root permissions, you have root.

I rooted following the wiki.
I'm trying to install roms through rom manager and when I hit download roms it says, "You must have ClockworkMod Recovery installed before continuing! Install the recovery through ROM Manager First"
Sorry, all of this still confuses me, this is my first time doing this. I don't know what Terminal Emulator is.

ok, i will try to help...
1. download a rom of your choice to pc
2. put it on your sdcard
3. enter recovery (turn the phone off, then press power & volume down - the bootloader will appear, choose the option recovery (volume up and down for moving and tp-wake to choose)
4. in recovery first wipe data & cache & dalvik cache
5. again in recovery choose install from sdcard and select your downloaded rom
6. reboot and have fun...
pls hit the thanks button

The ROM manager and ClockwordMod you have after rooting following the wiki is a VERY old version. It will say you do not have Clockword even if you do have it.
Things to try:
1. Install ROM manager from the market.
2. Reboot into recovery (turn off the phone, then hold down volume and power until you see the HBOOT, choose recovery). If you're in ClockwordMod (which you should) then you're fine.
3. Flash a new recovery through ADB (which what you should definitely learn how to do)
3a. download the newest version of ClockwordMod, copy the img file to the same folder as adb
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
3b. go to settings, make sure that you're in USB Debugging Mode
3c. now, just to make sure you won't brick your phone, turn off the phone, hold down volume and power. If you see the FASTBOOT USB, you're good to go.
3d. open cmd in your computer
3e. type in "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
in which recovery.img is the recovery image you just downloaded. If you download it from the website I pointed, the command will be
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.7-vision.img
Now you have the latest recovery. Go to recovery in the HBOOT menu to see the result, enjoy!
Terminal emulator: It will be one of the apps in your apps drawer, named "Terminal Emulator". May or may not be there depends on what ROM you're running.
Check for root using cmd: using command "adb shell", you should see
adb server us out of date, killing...
*daemon started successfully*

Installing ROM: please try not to use ROM Manager, learn how to do it in Recovery at least. Because if you cannot boot to your ROM, runs ROM manager then you're stuck when something wrong happens (which is quite usual if you're flashing). Best way is to copy the ROM to your SD card, reboot to recovery, choose "Install from zip" then pick the zip file of the ROM. (remember to wipe data/cache and dalvik cache in the advanced menu)
Hope that helps!
Edited: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager is down for the moment. I attached the newest G2 recovery img for you. Use either of them. Touch is more advance (and more confusing).

Disregard. Kyra was faster.

Help booting into CWM recovery

Hello all,
My phone's got a wonky vol down button that works about 5% of the time. I've tried the regular power + vol down boot method about 20 times now, but it isn't happening for me.
Battery pull, factory reset, power + home button all failed (suggestions on Google). I've further tried typing su followed by reboot recovery in terminal emulator, nothing at all happens.
There's got to be some other way of forcing the phone to reboot into recovery, right? I think you can also install the Android SDK and force reboot recovery from that, but I'd rather leave that as the very last measure.
I'm running Android Revolution 7.0.3.
Many thanks!

You can use either cwm or 4ext to boot into recovery. There are also a few mods that let you have the 4way boot using the power button (long pressing). Don't know if android R has that mod.
Sent from a dream.

just install clockworkmod or 4ext touch recovery.
In the app you need to install the recovery itself and then you can boot into recovery right from the app.
I don't even use the Power + Volume buttons anymore for it. with 4ext even your touchscreen works in recovery!

Or Quick Boot - free app on play store.
And you can do it if you have adb on your PC from when you rooted, you don't need the full SDK. Depends which tool you used to root, but chances are it has adb.exe and the necessary dll files in that folder.
Just plug the phone in, open a command prompt and cd to the folder with adb.exe. Then type "adb reboot recovery" in the command window.

Quick Boot worked like a charm. Thanks a lot guys!

thanks a lot..

Push your old recovery back. You tried to push recovery with ICS installed which has a locked boot loader. The only way to get a third party recovery you have to go through the unbricking process first to downgrade to GB whose bootloader is unlocked and then push recovery from there. Once you have your CWM or TWRP recovery installed you can go to any GB, ICS or JB ROM of your choice.

follow this guide if you want to remove the secure bootloader and install a custom rom
note: you will lose all data and end up with at&t stock rom without the secure bootloader (edit), from which you can boot into cwm backup, and install custom roms.
note: modifications are always done at your own risk if you have an problems you can ask here
