Unable to flash after GEN2 conversion

[Guest JayGB1982]

I could do with a little help, I flashed / converted to GEN2 yesterday but now cannot access clockwork.

I understand this is due to clockwork not being supported by GEN2 CM7

I was recommended to install sebs Recovery Manager but this just force closes on me.

I'm quite concerned at not having a working recovery option.

Any idea's how I can re-gain access to a recovery mode and re-gain the ability to flash?

Thanks in advance

Ive not used ADB before... Could i do this via terminal instead?

[Guest JayGB1982]

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-g2.img

If you want to do this on the phone, download this first, put it on your sdcard, then on your phone open up a terminal and type:

su

reboot bootloader

Then connect the phone to your computer and type

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-blade-g2.img

A CSS it's you again :)

OK I'm fine with the first part already have that img file in the root of the SD card.

Trouble is I've not used ABD before? I l just connect to phone pc then type that at command prompt?

you dont need to use ADB, use the terminal emulator

Ok if you don't have even fastboot, Rename the recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-blade-g2.img to just recovery.img and place it at the root of your sdcard. Then, Download a terminal app such as this on to your phone. Open the app and type:

su

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

[Guest dibbles]

If Jay has the Android SDK installed the ADB is now stored within the platform-tools folder. However the fastboot.exe still remains in the tool folder. Can you not just copy over the fastboot.exe to the platform-tools folder where ADB now is for it to work..?

su

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

Wahoo!!!

Sorted thanks CSS / hecatae - People like you are a credit to the community!

I now have clockwork recovery 3.0.2.4 on the phone... Can rest a bit easier knowing that now :)

So I can just flash zips as normal now? This version of clockwork works on GEN2?

Yup it's gen2 clockwork.

[Guest JayGB1982]

Yeah I thought it was a stupid question after I typed it.

Many thanks for all your help

[Guest skull_fcuk]

I've followed the steps detailed here, using the phones terminal emulator, and i'm still stuck at the Android. Is there anything else i can try>?

I used the method written above with the terminal and it works just fine....

Make sure you've written correctly, eg. recovery.img instead of recovery.image, I made that mistake first...

[Guest skull_fcuk]

What should the terminal say once you've successfully flashed?

EDIT: Nevermind! I was making the mistake of missing the space after recovery, and before the first / ie, i was typing flash_image recovery/sdcard, when i should have been typing 'flash_image recovery /sdcard'

What a nugget :) Much relief indeed. Thanks again guys. Forum saves Phone, once again!

[Guest ukmobileman]

Yep thanks guys it restored my blade to being clockworkable agian!
