How to upgrade recovery image?

Hi guys, my phone currently running Amon_RA 1.6.2 and CyanogenMOD 5.0.5. Now I want to upgrade to Amon RA 1.7.0 and CyanogenMod 5.0.5.1. I know how to upgrade the ROM and I can use the updater to do that, but do I upgrade the recovery image first? and how do I upgrade the recovery image?
Thanks
No you do not have to update the recovery image first and
fastboot flash recovery [path leading up to recovery image]/[name of recovery image].img
i.e.
fastboot flash recovery C:/recovery.img
Thanks I just figured it out, and realized it was a dump question to ask...

[Solved]G1 stuck on recovery

My G1 is stuck on Amon RA recovery....I tried to use firerat's method and after i flashed foroyo rom its stuck in the recovery...but it doesnt show any options...
Just
Build : RA-dream-v1.7.0
thats it i cant do anything....
i know i didnt brick my phone...please help...
[Solved]
solution : install fastboot and you can erase the system...
C:\\ .......android-sdk-windows\tools\fastboot devices
C:\\ .......android-sdk-windows\tools\fastboot -w
C:\\ .......android-sdk-windows\tools\fastboot flash recovery [recovery path with ".img"]
walla your recovery is overridden by the new one...
Most likely you did not completely follow the instructions how to install mtd, but nevertheless what SPL do you have installed? If you have 1.33.2003 I suggest to flash recovery again using fastboot and you are rescued.
Otherwise ... I don't know. Even if you are able to connect via adb I do not expect you can flash a new recovery while beeing in recovery. For sure you are able to go into bootloader install dreamimg.nbh, etc. but this would mean to do the hole rooting process again.

(Q) Recovery - Not booting into

Hi XDA, as title says, i cant get boot into recovery...
I have an HTC Dream (Spanish version of G1), and Im having problems with the recovery boot.
I have root done on the phone and i've tried to install a new recovery via Clockwork app, adb shell, also via Fastboot and via "RECOVERY FLASHER"...
All of them look to finish succesfully, but I still cant boot onto recovery.
Every time I try to boot on recovery, the phone gets hang on the company logo... until I get out the battery to turn it off.
I dont know what can I try more...
Any idea ?
Thanks
If you cannot boot into recovery by holding down Home and Power, then you're bricked, I believe. What were you trying to do?

I can boot normally, and I run apps that need root correctly, but I want to boot into recovery to flash a custom ROM...
Clockwork mod needs to reboot into recovery to reflash a Custom ROM, so I cant get another rom that way neither.
Any idea (again)?
Do you have terminal on your phone? Download amon RA recovery 1.7.0 for HTC Dream and use that instead Clockwork because it is most recommended. Rename it to recovery.img and move it to the root of your SD card.
Go to terminal on your phone and type:
cd sdcard
flash_image recovery recovery.img
Now try to boot into recovery mode.

If you have root access, then you can try to (re-)install your recovery image using adb.
Open a shell using the command
adb shell
and then from there you can try to flash the recovery image by entering
flash_image recovery recovery.img
where recovery.img is the name of the recovery image you want to install and it should be located in the current directory.
Edit: two people same ideas ... ;-)
Both things re-done...
Nuthin'
Anything else ?
Thanks for the answers anyway
Bump...
Any help ?
Fastboot is working for me, but I have the default SPL and I cant use "fastboot flash new_recovery.img" ---> Not allowed.
Theres a way to flash another SPL using phone terminal, or using fastboot ?
Thanks
I'm not sure, but if I was in the same boots as you, I would download the DREAIMG.nhb and flash that in fastboot. Once done, you'll be on Stock RC29. Yep, you're going to have to root again and re-install a custom recovery.
This is also safe to do since you're on HBOOT-0.95.000.

Thanks for everything guys...
But now im looking for a "Howto unbrick G1"...
I dont have fastboot, recovery boot or normal boot...

Nexus One stuck on boot screen w/ no recovery

I have a Nexus One phone which was on Vodafone 2.2. I changed it to 2.1 stock, 2.2 and then google updated it to 2.3.4. Next I unlocked the bootloader and flashed it with Amon Ra 2.2.1 cm passion recovery. Then I installed CM7 stable version, and flashed radio to 5.08.00.04. Everything was working fine until the phone started to reboot after 5 minutes of running any app. I pulled out the battery and now it's stuck on colored X. I can access the pwr/trackball but then if go to recovery it goes back to the X.
What should I do?
fastboot flash recovery name-of-recovery.img
fastboot boot name-of-recovery.img

What recovery image should I use?
I used Amon RA
And it still is stuck on X.
Anything else I could do?
Since you've tried Amon, why not give Clockwork a shot (2.5.1.4)?
I've also found that when you're struggling to get a custom recovery to stick, it sometimes helps to flash a stock recovery and then try again...

Flash a ROM via Fastboot

Hello,
I've got a HTC One which is having trouble. When I flash teh latest TWRP or CWM recovery it says ''Entering Recovery'' goes black screen then goes back to Entering Recovery''. But when I install the old version of TWRP it works??
Anyway... I've deleted everything via TRWP by mistake so I've no ROM installed. I'm trying to push the zip but no luck, so I'm wondering If I can flash a ROM via ''Fastboot'' instead of installing through ''Recovery''

You can't flash a rom from fastboot, only in recovery mode. The only thing you can flash in fastboot mode are RUU, Firmware and recovery.
What os the recovery version that was booting fine? What version of TWRP are you trying to install now? What rom do you want to flash? Do you have erased cache and rebooted the bootloaded after flashing the recovery?
