Hey I was wandering I decided to flash ras recovery 1.62 instead of clockworkmods and I must say ras layout is much better however when I went to choose zip from SD none of my roms were there it was just the rootme.zip file I used to root and the original 2.1 Sprint ruu do I have to download everything again to this recovery or what

Do you have them saved in a folder on your SD card?
Amon Ra will only see the root of your SD card. If they are in a folder just move them to the root of your SD card where the rootme.zip and 2.1 RUU are.

Correct, and I would use the 1.7 RA from Darch, much faster
Alright thank you I'm ditching Rom manager since they don't support the hero at all anymore other than the standard clockworkmod stuff I mean it is nice to be able to install without having to turn of your phone but ras recovery is much better than clockworkmod

EDIT: Do you know how to flash a recovery?

No problem, did you get it ok?
I'm currently using 1.62. I have never updated recovery before, do I just flash over using "flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img" via ADB? No need to uninstall or other preparations?

That is correct
FYI, I am new to the game
Been doing a lot of research and decided to root with Z4 and to use Rom Manager (rooting isn't the issue). Flash ClockworkMod Recovery works fine. My problem - When attempting to Reboot into Recovery my hero attempts to reboot but stays at the opening HTC image.
Any ideas?
Try to make it go into recovery through ADB. I think that's the command program. Not sure. I'm very forgetful today.
Open up Rom Manager and flash alternate recovery then re-flash Clockwork Recovery. Hope that helps

I installed this ROM and rebooted and my screen doesnt advance pass the blue android splash screen
now i tried gingerbread and it made it through the splash but i got a message saying something about setup not working and forcing closed. then i went back to recovery and installed the gapps and it gets stuck on the splash screen
Are you using firerat mod? Also make sure to do a full data/ system, cache, and dalvik cache wipe. I usually do all three at least twice as I've had roms hang from leftover data. Also check to make sure files are downloading completely.

What recovery are you using??
Yea it's me again. With the
Modified Hero
im using clockwork recovery 3.0.0.5
i finally got gingerbread to work. i think my problem was with doing a complete wipe of the cache.
i want to try the froyo mod but dont want to end up back where i was of hanging on the splash screen.
do i need to delete the one click root file? heroroot010.apk?
Yes you should and just do a nand back up of your working rom and you should be good to try any different rom. Then if you want to go back just nand restore back to your old rom. And if you were able to get gb to work froyo shouldn't be a problem for you.
Yea it's me again. With the

You also wanna ditch that customized recovery image. Use the recovery that comes with rom manager. That new one is missing some capabilities.

I second that! Hated that recovery both days I had it. lol
That's not the new one. The heroroot apk. installs the old darchstar recovery img. The newest one is RA1.7 and it has all the features. Good luck
Yea it's me again. With the

thanks guys
where can i find R.A. 1.7
Clockwork recovery 2.5.0.7 works great. And that's what rom manager will flash for you. Since you likely have rom manager already, you should go with that. Most people post instructions with clockwork in mind, so it will be easier in the long term.

Like what? Besides doing away with amend scripts (which is due to CWM 3.x being based on the official GB recovery), it's the same.
That's basically it. But it causes extra work. And the original clockwork recovery works fine.
So if the OP wants stuff to work every time...

Hey,
I want (well not want, it's necessary) to change from CWM to 4ext recovery touch. i donwloaded the 4ext recovery updater, flashed the recovery from the app and rebooted to recovery. still there is cwm. i tried again with the classic version of 4ext recovery but the result remains the same.
i'd be glad if anyone can help me.
regards
If I'm not mistaken they are integrated..... Synergy!!!!!
i don't know what you're trying to say. my point is that 4ext recovery does not start when it should start. instead cwm is starting.
I'm trying to say that 4ext recovery is integrated into your cwm recovery to allow for 4ext partitions and backwards compatibility to 3ext. If the recovery isn't working you haven't told me that your original h-boot is 2.0000.
yeah right, i didn't told you that.
thanks for your help anyway. i managed to get it working by myself through flashing it via fastboot.
Good to hear no problem.
I am having the same problem. May I know what you mean by flashing using fastboot?

I asume you somewhat know how to use fastboot or read up on it. Havent flashed through fastboot for some time now but I think the line would be "fastboot flash recovery recoveryfile.img"

Yup. Will Give that method a try when I get home.

Just my 2 cents,but you can't install core Droid with 4ext, so I have to wonder at it's advantage over cwm.?

Hi,
I don't know how you solved this, but I had exactly the the same problem with an HTC Desire, can't upgrade to 4ext from CWM v2.5.0.7.
In my case, I solved it by running unrevoked again, but specifying the 4Ext recovery image. (I used the 4Ext app on the phone to download the appropriate .zip to the SDCard, then transferred it to the PC and extracted it there.)

Just came along this thread by accident.
Just for reference:
This is nonesense
4ext recovery has nothing to do with cwmr and they are not integrated.
You need to be s-off to be able to flash a recovery from inside your rom.
In the case you are not s-off, just download (or install) the recovery via recovery control/updater.
It will prepare your recovery config, but it cannot effectively update the recovery partition when you are not s-off.
So after you did that, you need to flash it manually.
You will find the recovery.img you tried to install or downloaded via recovery control in your sdcard's download folder.
Im having a bit of trouble flashing WXC recovery. WXC was my original recovery but in order for me to use ROM Manager i needed to flash CM Recovery so i did. After i flashed it i learned that i actually cannot even get to recovery due to that fact that it just stays on the HTC logo. How can i fix this?
