I have the same issue.

Orange San Franscisco Build OUK_P729BV1.0.0B08

- Installed UniversalAndroot_1.6.1

- Rooted phone successfully

- Installed Recovery Manager v0.23b

- Opened Recovery Manager v0.23b, recovery tab, install recovery, select "recovery-clockwork-blade-2.5.1.8" from SD" ,OK.

Bottom reads:

currently installed recovery:

unrecognised

Files are all OK (I've checked the MD5 sum with Astro File Manager). Same problem with Recovery Manager v0.26b.

Any help is appreciated.

Solved: There seems to be a problem if the folder name (the folder were recovery-clockwork-blade-2.5.1.8 is in) contains spaces. Without spaces all works fine.

IMHO the most straightforward way to install Clockwork is to run the installation on the phone, using a (text) Terminal app.

You need to get Clockwork onto your sdcard, install a Terminal app, install a root app,, run Terminal and type a couple of commands very carefully without typos.

It ain't hard.

And it doesn't depend on programs that are still being debugged, sorting the right usb drivers, etc, etc

I spelled out how to do it in excruciating detail here -> http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad...c/#entry1499715

The detail should leave little to 'interpretation' or 'common sense', though those so blessed may not need all the explanation --- but that doesn't mean you can skip doing stuff 'because you are clever'. You do really need to check the MD5, for example.

Thank you for reply, I `m sure this site is very helpfull to those who understand the techi stuff, but not a numpty like me.

It is hard, been reading it for a few days no and not any wiser.

I have a lots of thing downloaded by now , which I have no clue what they are.

Is there an easy way to delete or uninstall what ever I`ve pu on it - I fallowed the orange guid to letter. Taht would be really helpfull, thank you.

Just a quick post to say that mine did exactly that.. but I rebooted it holding Vol - and it came up into the recovery just fine.

Seemed to just be a display glitch for me!
