Guest ZeppeMan Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) I did it like this. (Offcource if you have the AndroidSDK map in C: with all the necessary files in it like recovery-RA-Hero-v1.5.3.1.img,...) (with the phone in normal mode) 1) Connect your Hero via usb to your pc/mac/... 2) Open Command Prompt -> Put in the following text -> C:\Users\Username> cd\ C:\>cd android\tools\ C:\>android\tools>adb push recovery-RA-Hero-v1.5.3.1.img /sdcard/recovery-RA-Hero-v1.5.3.1.img C:\>android\tools>adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-Hero-v1.5.3.1.img 3) JOB DONE! ;) I know there are other ways to do it, but this is how I did it.

You can do this on the move too by using one of the many Terminal Emulator apps in the Market (or by SSH'ing in via PuTTY):Download the image to the SD Card (/sdcard/recovery-RA-Hero-v1.5.3.1.img)Fire up a shell window (or use PuTTY to connect to the phone)Type 'SU' at the promptType 'flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-Hero-v1.5.3.1.img' at the promptWait about 30 secondsDone!

I got this when I tried to flash the recovery image and I cancelled it and was able to get into the recovery. Try these instructions from Amon_RA adb shell reboot bootloader fastboot boot recovery_RA_hero_v1.5.3.1.img adb shell mount /sdcard adb push recovery-RA-hero-v1.5.3.1.img /sdcard/recovery_RA_hero_v1.5.3.1.img adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery_RA_hero_v1.5.3.1.img adb shell reboot Note that the instructions at the start of this thread are slightly wrong and the filename has _s and not -s in it. I think this might have caused the problems for me the first time. Check the filename of the file you downloaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest venturerider Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 (edited) Hmmmm... I did a nand backup, played with a different rom for a bit, then did a wipe (data and dalvik) and restore. After my restore, all of the homescreen shortcuts for my installed apps did not work any more. The app would start, close and the icon would vanish. I had to redo all of the shortcuts and now I'm back in business. I also lost the settings for a couple of widgets I installed. Only the downloaded apps/widgets were affected. I am not using apps2sd. Did I miss something? Edited February 11, 2010 by venturerider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
