Clockwork Not working

[Guest mitchgixer6]

Hi all,

Newbie alert, only had the phone for a week. Thanks to ALL on here for helping me make my decision to buy as well as providing the usual wealth of knowledge.

I have rooted using Universal Androot, and have installed ROM manager from the market. Through ROM Manager I installed the Clockwork mod. However when I try and boot into recovery mode I just get the green guy on a loop unitl I let go if the volume down. Also will not work when rebotting through the ROM manager. I'm trying to install the Desire theme to give me the black notification bar, nothing too taxing? Not confident enough for a ROM yet.

Any (further) help greatly appreciated.

I don't think you can install the Blade Clockworkmod with ROM Manager - see the pinned topic on how to flash Clockworkmod with fastboot - that should sort you out.

Hi mitchgixer6,

The clockwork recovery you should use is Paul's modded one [you will be able to find it in one of the pinned topics] koush doesn't support the zte blade

Find and download the recovery http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad...rkmod-recovery/ save the .img file to the root of your sd card name it recoverCW.img

If you haven't got it already got to the market and download terminal emulator enter the following code:

su

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recoveryCW.img

reboot recovery

your phone should then boot into recovery and you can flash your rom form there

Cheers for the help guys, will give that a bash.

OK, got Clockwork working. Cheers for the help.

I'm planning on installing the Expresso Framework posted on here by Rem1x in order to gain the black notification bar. I was about to do this from the Clockwork Mod, but then got the message "This cannot be undone" and chickened out! Don't want to flash this if there is a risk I can't revert to the stock theme.

Is this the case? I have backed up through Clockwork already. Can I restore if I don't like the new theme? Also, is it possible to update the notification bar only?

Cheers
