For some reason Safari, but I think FF or Camino as well possibly downloads imgs from this site as text. Mac native dmgs from other sites download just fine.

Maybe there's a MIME type setting I can fiddle with somewhere.

I hate messing with my apache conf but I'll double check to see if theres something up with it

'fastboot reboot'

does not work in the same command window after ive pushed the new cwm to the device

lmao what am i doing wrong now!

EDIT: nevermind, i worked it out, every command must start with 'fastboot - windows (THEN command)'

fastboot-windows is the .exe you are using so of course you have to call it properly.

If you dont want to use fastboot-windows then just rename your fastboot-windows.exe to whatever you want to use as command (it basically runs any executable file without the need of file extension so you dont have to input it that means you could also run it as fastboot-windows.exe reboot), for example i named mine fastboot.exe so i do what you wrote: fastboot reboot

Hey Seb, what about adding a little screenshot of the recovery to the first post? (for RA as well pls)

I just wanted to see how the recovery looks like (especially for comparing RA and CWM)...

For RA there is already one posted, though im sure you can find for both of them videos on youtube or screenshots in google images?

Yeah sure, but where's the problem in just adding one to the first post, so that you have a picture directly related to the version offered?

I think it would be good to have some more information about what one is installing... A picture might help! (I missed one and needed to search for it)

Its not really that hard to flash them and see how they look. You could have flashed it by the time you made the post till the time i replied about 100 times :D

yeah you're right :P

But in fact I just like to know what I am installing, before installing it... I don't like surprises in this relation, I want to know what I do!

But let's end this discussion B)

€: oh btw, I just installed 2.5.1.8 and it works well! Nice to have the display the right way round finally.

Hey Seb, is it possible to contact Koush and get your build of CWM in Rom Manager?

I have a problem when I try to do a full backup. The error message is "Error while making a yaffs2 image of /data/!". Any solution for that? I had the same error with 2.5.1.3. and I hoped it would be gone with this newer version. Unfortunately no success...

Found a solution: I just repartioned the sd-card with ClockworkMod (no formatting), then a reboot into recovery and I was able to do the backup. So I guess something went wrong with my old partioning using ClockworkMod 2.5.1.3

unless im being completely stupid i dont know what im doing wrong.

need a proper noob guide ;)

TBH i find that copying the cmd.exe out of windows system 32/64 folder into the fastboot folder the easiest way then it there for good.

A Couple of people have asked me why the latest version of ClockWorkMod Recovery takes longer to boot up/reboot...

Well its because the Kernel now has EXT4 support.. so during a reboot its closing down gracefully, flushing the file system journal and all that......

I am trying to install 2.2 on my ZTE.

I followed the steps as per link below.

http://orangesanfrancisco.co.uk/android/ho...isco-zte-blade/

I am on 3rd step. " Choose and Install ROM".

After this step.

Turn on the phone whilst holding the Volume Down button on the side of your phone. Continue to hold the Volume Down button for 5 seconds.

I am getting a screen with lable as "FTM" and then nothing is going on. I cannot go ahead as well phone is not going off after pressing the off button.

Any idea what is happenign and how to proceed further.

I retried doing step 2 as i was not sure if i done that correctly.

When I try to run "Recovery Manager" getting following message.

Sorry!

The application Recovery Manager (process com.podtwo.RecoveryManager) has stopped unexpectedly. Please Try again.

The option I have is Force Close.

Thanks in advance for help.

************************

I am able to do this by doing all teh steps again... Still putting this as it could help someone else.

I got this once - If Recovery Manager does not start properly on the first RUN (superuser gives a blank screen), it seems that it force closes.

What you need to do is simply re-install Recovery Manager from the APK - kill all processes and re-launch it.

I have "recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.9-modaco-r2-blade" installed.

Could you please kindly confirm how to update? Put the update file into the phone SD Card, turn off the phone and then proceed as to "Turn on the phone whilst holding the Volume Down button on the side of your phone."

Or something else?

Thank you in advance!

Hi!

How can I backup my original recovery, before flashing this ClockworkMod?

How much more....? I installed using the update zip, made a backup and tried to restore. But after rebooting the phone got stuck in booting animation for about 15 min (android logo - Seb2.2 rom). I pull out battery repeated, tried a previous backup several times, flashed a rom, wipe data, ...and always stuck there. Maybe I am not patient enough or "Houston, houston ..I've got a problem :lol: "

SOLVED: installed old clockwork a everything OK, even installed backup created with seb lates clockwork.

You can install the zip update as any other update file entering into recovery. If you are not sure please read the pinned guides at the beginning of the tread.

You can install old clockwork by fastboot.

3.0.0.5 is the most current... its been mentioned before...

they dropped support for the old update-script format.... and you know how much bitching there was over that

Somewhy koush forgot to update the commit log then :lol:

I don't care about the update-script, most of the ROMs are in the new format any way (Jelly, MoDaCo Froyo, etc). But a new build would be nice (of course, with big red letters telling people that it does not support the old way).

Well, Ive got a working build of 3.0.0.5 but I'm going to think about splitting it out a bit

since I've had so many complaints about the 'slowness' of 2.5.1.8 since adding EXT4 support, I might revert back for EXT3 only for 2.5.1.8 and keep EXT4 for 3.0.0.5

I need to change the file name since apparently I've formatted that wrong too...

expect something to happen tomorrow..
