I just installed this ROM on my Alltel hero. It works great! However, I'm still trying to get mms to work. Before I upgraded clockwork recovery to 3, I could use this file. But now it won't let me use it as it says the scripting needs to be changed.
I can't get this to work. My MMS has been an issue with the CM ROMS, but I had a patched file that allowed it to work on the old Clockwork recovery. Like 2.5.5. But when I put CM7 on, I had to update clockwork to 3.x.x. Now I cannot flash this zip.
It says this "Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported. Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5. It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recover. Please switch to Edify Scripting (update-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages. Installation aborted"
Can anyone help me with this?

same problem when i try flashing stuff
I flashed with the old clockwork just fine for me.
Is your zip file just apn settings? There is an app called apnbackup you could use but need to nandroid back to backup
Sent from my HTC Hero CDMA using XDA App
I'm not sure...I didn't make the file?! haha any thoughts?
ClockworkMod 3 and ClockworkMod 2.5 can't flash the same zips.
To flash the one you want to flash, you need to either go back to ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1, or make your current zip flashable with ClockworkMod 3. To do that you can just get any zip that is flashable with 3.0 and put in your .apk and flash. There is a guide somewhere in the forums...do a search and you'll find it...in fact there was some talk in the GB thread on this idea.
*Edit* Just saw that it's not an .apk file...however, the same idea still applies. Just find a zip that is flashable in 3.0, and add the apns-conf.xml into the /etc folder in that zip.
You could also push the file to your phone using ADB or Root Explorer on your phone.

Go back to ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1. Use ROM Manager
If you do that, that will also take care of your issue of flashing your zip

Well, file flashed, but would not get passed the HTC logo screen. I just did a nandroid, but didn't try booting into it after restoring. I am again restoring, and will try booting into it, to see if it was the backup or the .zip.
ClockworkMod 3.0.0.5 will auto format everything for you.
ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1 you have to go to "Partitions menu" and select the following:
format boot
format system
format data
format system
Essentially, other than causing flash issues with almost every .zip out there, ClockworkMod 3.0.0.5 just saves a few key presses I would go back to 2.5.0.1 and you will have far less issues.

First things first, if you flashed a previous version of Clockwork Recovery using Odin, FLASH BACK TO A STOCK KERNEL using this Odin package:
http://koush.tandtgaming.com//test/kernel-vibrant-stock.tar.md5
This recovery is *very* safe to use. It does NOT flash your kernel; it is a completely uninvasive recovery method.
How it works: The recovery is packaged as an update.zip that you run from STOCK recovery. The update.zip unpacks Clockwork Recovery onto the ramdisk and restarts recovery. When you reboot, it reverts back to the original, unmodified, stock recovery. So, you will need to keep the recovery on the root of your SD card as an update.zip, and apply the zip every time you want to start Clockwork.
HOWEVER, if you use ROM Manager, all of the recovery installation and management instructions are done for you!
Installation instructions:
Download ROM Manager from the Market.
Flash Recovery.
Choose Vibrant as your phone.
Accept the Superuser prompt.
On the very FIRST boot of Clockwork, you may need to manually select "reinstall packages" if Clockwork does not start. You should only ever have to do this once. It will be automatic from then on.
Watch the backup go!
That's it! This is completely painless and safe! There is no need for Odin anymore to replace the recovery or flash updates!
If you appreciate my work, please buy the Premium version of ROM Manager!
Failed the first time. Left me in the stock recovery menu and gave a recovery error when clockwork first started. Flashed again and tried to backup a second time. Looks like it worked perfect! Now we need some froyo!

Yes! That is expected! The very first boot WILL FAIL, the recovery needs a kick start to complete installation.
little tip
after I downloaded Rom Manager and had it download the recovery for my Vibrant.
After the success message I waited nothing happened so you may have to select to manually reboot into the recovery, then select "reinstall packages" to finish the installation.

when i flash the recovery.. and reboot it goes to the stock recovery i hit reinstall packages then it goes to clockwork.. but after that if i reboot it goes back to stock... hmm thats odd..

That's how it is supposed to work. Recovery is not replaced permanently. It's safer that way. Just reinstall packages to get into clockwork. Or use ROM Manager to have it handle everything automatically.

If flashing manually, yes. Just flash using ROM Manager though, and it will handle that all for you automatically.
I can't permanently replace the recovery until the kernel source and whatnot is released for the Vibrant.

If you did a master clear it deleted everything on your /sdcard volume... so of course it isn't finding an update.zip package there =P
if your recovery is black screen w blue letters, That is samsung recovery.

I can get to samsung recovery, but when I click reinstall packages it fails if there isn't an update.zip file in the /sdcard directory.
I poked around the clockworkmod update.zip and found out it deletes the /cache/recovery/update.zip and installs a modified /sbin/recovery; among other things, but I think those are the files that are most important to me right now, are those files not restored by Odin?
btw I'm new to android but I'm a linux admin and programmer so I have a basic understanding of how this works, now to just dig deeper and find out where it's going wrong.
Odin will wipe everything on your NAND clean, this does not include the /sdcard area (internal Sdcard)
Doing a master clear wipes everything including your internal sd (so if you had already had a clockwork backup it would have gotten wiped as well)
Rom Manager/Clockwork creates a folder on your /sdcard called /sdcard/clockwork, and within that folder all of your images are stored. Clockwork uses and update.zip file to install itself on boot up (through stock recovery)
I'm not entirely sure what answer you're looking for though, so I figured I'd just lay out a few facts in hopes that one of them might help
Thanks for the reply, I know the basics of how clockworkmod/nand work. What I'm trying to do is restore my phone to factory condition, Odin restores everything except the recovery manager, for some reason I'm stuck with the modified recovery that needs an update.zip. Before I made any changes, when my phone was new, if I booted into recovery and selected reinstall packages it would run the default att/samsung recovery program and reinstall default packages(as far as I can remember, please tell me if I'm just imagining this, ive been flashing and reflashing my phone countless times so I could be really confused), thats what I wan't to happen, now it just gives me the error:
e: can't open /sdcard/update.zip.

Just so I understand. You go to recovery and it tries to install an update.zip without you doing anything? This isn't normal.
I'd do another odin and a master clear. That really should do it.

No, he is saying that when he first got the phone it used to reinstall the stock packages when he selected reinstall packages. Now it doesn't and instead just says it can't find update.zip. He just wants to make sure that on a stock recovery it's not supposed to install anything when he selects reinstall packages.
If you did a master clear and have not manually put an update.zip file back into the root of the sdcard, then you will always get that message because the file does not exist. If you ran the 1 click odin and restored the phone, then you are back to stock. No further actions necessary.

I have thoroughly restored and master cleared my phone twice now. I root it, install Rom Manager and then attempt to install Clockworkmod Recovery and every time I get "Error while downloading from server". Are they down or something?
same story here, I even gave them the $5 and now it cannot even install the clockwork mod What is going on here?!
I believe the server is down for the clockwork mod file that rom manager downloads from. I attached the file that I downloaded from another post.

Ok so I'm new to flashing a ROM, and Im having a little problem with ROM Manager. Ive been trying to make a backup of my current ROM prior to flashing to a new ROM. However when I choose the option to backup current ROM it shows me the name of the backup and then reboots my device (Samsung Captivate) into recovery mode. Not really sure what it wants me to do there so I choose to reboot the device, I then check to see if it made the backup and nothing??? Im not sure what it is that Im doing wrong but Im sure I must be missing a step. The phone is rooted, running 2.2 other than that nothing else has been moded. If any of you can help me I would appreciate it, I just dont want to move forward with flashing a ROM before Ive backed up the current ROM. I have made a backup of all apps and data using Titanium.

When it goes into recovery, is it the ClockWorkMod recovery menu? Green text? If it isn't getting there you need to install it from ROM manager first or just install it off an update.zip file that is floating around XDA and other sites. Once that is setup, you can run the backup through ROM Manager. It should boot into a recovery mode and then start doing a lot of writing of files to your new backup directory.
Post back if you are still having problems.
I did select the option for flashing ClockWorkMod recovery and chose the Captivate as my device. It did say that it sucessfully downloaded the file and Im assuming that it meant it installed it. And to answer your question I think I can safely say that no its not clockwork recovery when it reboots as it does say at the top of the screen "Android Recovery" so Im pretty sure that ClockWork is not installed. But I will look for that update.zip file and try to install it that way...

I'm sorry, you are looking for recovery-update.zip. I would try to run the ROM Manager install again and see what happens. I haven't had to play with the Android Recovery in quite some time but if the recovery-update.zip file is in the root of your sd card, you should be able to install it through the Android recovery. I'll keep looking. If I can find the file on my phone, i'll post it. Good luck.
If this is your first time booting into CWM recovery it will go to the base recovery first. Then you need to "reinstall packages". That will replace the recovery file with the CWM recovery file and return to the main menu. Then choose reintall packages one more time and it should bring you to CWM recovery instead of the base one. From then on it should bring you directly to the CWM recovery.
As for the backup it's done from CWM recovery. So once you get thru the steps above you will see backup and restore options on the recovery menu and you can go thru that process.

That update.zip should have been placed there by ROM Manager. Possibly try uninstalling & reinstalling ROM manager. Else, that update.zip should be somewhere.

I missed it too. The above post regarding 3e recovery is what you need to do, one of the phones I have I need to do the same process after flashing back to stock. Sorry for the confusion.
Been having a similar issue when it takes you to stock recovery, I hold down both volume buttons and power until I see AT&T let go of power it usually takes me to clockwork recovery menu, I then select whatever I want to do backup, recover, or install from sd.
I don't know why it started doing that but that's what I found works. Hope it helps.

Well... I'm not sure but at least Paul's version works right now ^^

EDIT
I think the best would be to use the "Manual Flash Override" Setting in the advanced MENU in ROM Manager (the popup one, by pressing the "Menu" button in the main screen of ROM Manager) and choose a ClockWorkMod version 3.x.x.x since Paul's CWM is 3.0.1.4 r1
CWM Recovery 3.0.2.7
I have no problems (any) with CWM recovery flashed from ROM Manager. Current vertion of CWM rec is 3.0.2.7. Just have sucsessfully backed up all ROM from inside of ROM Manager.

Are you maybe running an ext3/stock rom? Cuz I can't get it to backup on my device. Guessing it doesn't support ext4 yet, or something?
can't backup, can't mount /system!
