How to flash stock recovery.

Hi guys,
I have to send me N1 to htc for fix some problem.
I have RA recovery with lock bootloader, and I want to flash the original, but "fastboot" way doesen't work (signature fail ).
How can i flash it in other way?
Ty
(sry for my eng )

Just flash the stock rom with the recovery image like frf92 original.

How? Through recovery? Because "fastboot" hates me, and won't work.

I'd suggest using a passimg for frf85b and then maybe updating to 91 (or just leave it at 85), you can always re-root when you get it back.

N1 w/ XDA App

got it, thk to cyanogen wiki
Plug the phone into the computer
Reboot into fastboot by holding TrackBall + Power (you should see three Androids on skateboards and the words 'fastboot USB' in red)
On the computer, open a command prompt cd to the sdk/tools directory (we will assume the SDK is located in C:\android-sdk and the recovery file is in the root of the sdk/tools directory for the following steps)
With the phone connect via USB, open up a cmd prompt
Code:
adb reboot recovery"
Code:
adb devices
​A device name and 'recovery' should be returned
Code:
adb push recovery.img /sdcard/recovery.img
​recovery.img is located on android-sdk/tools dir
Code:
adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
​This permanently flashes the recovery.img to your phone, you can now boot into it by holding Vol- while powering on the device
Reboot

[TUT] HTC Unlock/Recovery/Rooting *Noobs*

​
The Ultimate guide on how to do everything for noobs
Anyone taking these steps please be aware, you do this as your own choice/Risk....If you have anything important on your phone, back it up right now before you proceed....as everything will be wiped by the bootloader unlock!
Bootloader unlock.
Download this >http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?uma19r3pysr93dr
Unzip into a new folder on your c: called Android (C:/Android)
Plug your Phone into Computer/PC and select charge only.
Follow the guide precisely on HTC
1. Go to HTCDEV website: http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/
2. Click on "Begin Unlock Bootloader" (create a user if you don't have one)
3. follow the instructions step 1 through step 10 on htcdev.com
4. In step 10, when posting your token, make sure you remove the blanks preceding each line
5. After you receive your Unlock_code.bin in email, follow step 11.
6. Now your rezound should reboot and you have your bootloader unlocked.
so you have updated the HBOOT and unlock bootloader....
Good now for the next bit.
If by chance you cannot unlock via HTC Dev please tell me as i maybe able to help you on that.
I require knowing which RUU you have installed, this u will find out by using HTC Dev.
Using HBOOT 1.0.7 and updating should be easy and fast.
Installing CWM 5 (Recovery Menu)
Please also read my orther thread on recoverys...it hold same details with extras >http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1791707
This is a program installed into the phone itself.
This allows you to do pretty much anything you want.
Main things are Backup and restore of your device.
Flashing of custom Roms
Here is the recovery file >http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=852074&d=1326296914
Save the recovery.img and flash_image in the root of your adb folder.(this means C:/Android)
Now using DOS CMD window
goto C:/Android
*hint, copy the txt in these windows into your DOS window and press enter....it saves time and spelling errors*
DOS txt
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
it should now reboot and show Fastboot USB mode
DOS txt
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
from the hboot menu, go to recovery.
now if above doesn't work and you cannot get into bootloader to flash the cwm. follow this
pull out battery
insert battery
hold volume down key and press power at same time
Hboot will appear
scroll down and select bootloader option, press power.
and your ready now in fastboot usb mode
Rooting
Please note, this method is old, current methods are simply just flash a new rom!
All roms come Pre Rooted with all apps required to run with root (Superuser)
For details in these check out the Android Development forum in our salsa section.
or go here>http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1043
Download this file >http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?pypn6v69o0vnvl9
(This is outdated somewhat and requires updating via Google Play)
place this file on the base of your sd card.
Now goto your new recovery menu.
use this cmd from DOS Windows
Code:
adb reboot recovery
it will reboot automatically
1-Select Install Zip from SDcard
2-Choose Zip from SDcard
3-Find Root.Zip on the SD card
4-Scroll upto Yes-Install Root.zip
it will now flash the root.zip
5-Go back
6-Reboot System Now
Now from here you will have done the following
Unlocked your bootloader
Flashed recovery system
Rooted your stock device.
if by any chance you make a mistake which is not very likely, but odd chance u do...redo the steps per section till you get it right.

thanks
thank you sir, you are a genius. i was stuck in 'adb'. and dont know what does it mean. got it cleared from geek.com . would like to suggest that please also add things like 'installing utilities from android sdk platform, root means the root directory of system(usually c:\ )for amateurs like me.
nevertheless it's really a useful post.... hats off to you and developers of this site!!!!!!

now follow cmds to install recovery
again all this is explained in main thread

SuperUser?
Hi BBE,
Followed your tutorial and was successful at every step. But one thing that is bothering me (or maybe I messed up at some step) is that I still do not have the Superuser (Su) rights. I used "Root Check Basic" and it says I have Root access. But when I try to run "Link2sd" or "Titanium Backup" it says I do not have Superuser rights. Is this method supposed to give us Superuser rights? If yes then what should I do now? If no then how can I get Superuser rights for my HTC Salsa?
Thanks.
Zaeem

Look in the apps list and you should see a pirate like app icon. If you do open app up and update it. This should rectify the su problem. If not.gimme a shout

Yea I did update it myself and now I have Su on my Salsa . However the binary is out dated and when I try to update it, it gives me 'failure' status. Downloaded the SuperUser binary installer fix from Market but still getting the error. Any help with that? (I think I am good even with the out dated binary though)

ok goto market, download, SuperSU looks like a large blue hashtag lol.
install that, update it etc, see if that runs, if you get successful updated binary, reboot the phone. u can run with both SU apps, but you would be better removing the old Su in favour of the new one...im gonna look around for a root.zip with new Super Su in there

tried to install JB, used Blackrose = can't get into recovery

Hello Folks,
I'm still stuck with my nexus one since I don't care that much about phones.
I've seen that jelly bean roms have made a significant progress. Thus I decided to give it a shot.
I started with installing adb and fastboot. :good: After that I rooted the nexus one :good: I've used this how to:
c2med blog, can't post links...
Next, I ran blackrose. :good: I saved the rom on the micro sd. Having done all the preperations I wanted to flash the JB rom.
I started the phone in bootloader mode but - unfortunately - couldn't access the recovery mode (ext4). I only get the Android figure and an exclamation mark.
In the how-to it sais i should use fastboot to flash the recovery made by ext 4.
Problem # 1: Ext4 generated a .zip, not a .img file
Problem # 2: I connect the device in fastboot mode, navigate to the adb/fastboot folder and use ./fastboot devices. The phone is recognized and I see the serial number. Next I try "flash recovery...." but I only get "command not found". Now, I basically have no idea what to do.
Which recovery should I flash? And how?
I'm so looking forward to your answers.

What you get is the stock recovery.
Flash 4Ext recovery or Amon RA recovery ( fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1.img)
Among the several guides to install JB, I suggest you to look at the following post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804571
I just finished this morning the following process:
install RA recovery,
install Blackrose and resize partition,
install from SD card Evervolv-Perdo-3.2.0-Nightly-2013.01.13-passion.zip
install from SD card gapps-ev-jb-20120816.zip
I spent a lot of times reading and trying. I had an issue after installing Evervolv-perdo-3.1.0final-passion zip. That's why I switched to the Nightly (JB 4.2).
Once you are set install a2sd from within the terminal emulator on your N1.
In my opinion this is so far the best ROM I ever have had on my Nexus 1.:good:
I am impressed to the extend that I offer to my wife to do the same on her N1. She said no. No to unlock, no to root and of course no to custom ROM.
Good luck

Hi,
thanks for your reply. Thats basically what i did as well. But after using Blackrose i can't go into the recovery mode.
I used the same tutorial. The problem lies here:
"Note: some people have reported having problems getting into recovery at this point (if not move on to step 5). If that happens, luckily for you, 4ext put a recovery image in the downloads folder of your SD card and if you did what I said in step 2 you saved it. Try reflashing that recovery image using fastboot (remember the one that was in SD/Download/4EXT_Recovery_Touch/ and was named "recovery.img"). Put your phone into the bootloader by turning off your phone, turning it on again while holding the trackball down. To reflash the recovery open command prompt and cd to the location of the Android SDK tools. Then type in the following command (replacing "path" with the path to where the recovery image is located on your computer):
Code:
fastboot flash recovery /path/recovery.img
If that does not solve your problems (inability to get into recovery) then I would recommend going back to the cyanogenmod wiki and installing Amon_Ra's recovery. Then you can use it to flash your installation zip."
It seems like I am unable to understand what I am supposed to do. Could somebody give me a step by step advice? I would prefer using some other recovery.img than mine...

In other words open your folder android-sdk-windows installed on the root of your C: hd. Click on the folder platform-tools and download Amon RA recovery in this folder. Left click anywhere on a blank area of this folder then press the key Shift (keyboard) and right click your mouse. In the drop down menu select Open command window. In the CMD, to be sure that the N1 is recognized by the pc (meaning the right drivers are installed) type ADB devices and press enter. You should see a string of numbers like HT9C......
Type adb reboot bootloader and press enter. You are in the fastboot mode ( and mood if I may say so) and the phone shows that it is in the bootloader. You can check again that N1 is recognized by the pc by typing fastboot devices. Same string appears.
Type fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1.img.
After the installation is completed boot in recovery, select Flash zip from sdcard, select the ROM you have dropped on the card. When the installation is completed go back to Flash zip from sdcard ( you are still in recovery mode) and select the gapps you have dropped on the sdcard.
Go back to Reboot system now. You are then out of the recovery and it takes some times for the N1 to boot to this beautiful JB

As c2med posted in his guide, sometimes, people lose their recovery when they repartition using Black Rose. Hence, its always best to have Amon-RA or 4EXT flashable .img file in your PC so that incase you lose recovery, you can always flash it back.
Once you are in bootloader ( also called FASTBOOT mode) you can flash your recovery.
Then reboot into recovery from FASTBOOT (Shutdown and then restart using the recovery combination)
Once you are in recovery, follow the steps in c2med's guide (wipe cache/dalvik/etc - except sd-card ofcourse) and flash your ROM from sd card.
Then reboot into JayBee

In the screenshot you type:
$ ./fastboot devices
then you type:
$ flash recovery ......../recovery.img
Command not found.... Sure, flash it's not a command...
You need to type fastboot command first!
$ ./fastboot flash recovery ......../recovery.img

Thank You! That's what I figuered out last night. Of course I also tried "fastboot flash" but forgot the "./". That was the key. Now the JB ROM works like a charm.
New Problem:
I can't install google apps. In fact I don't really need them. I only use a few apps and found the .apk files with google. Unfortunately the "official" Google apps like chrome don't work.
Plus, I wanted to install the camera (laggy in the evervolv - rom) and keyboard from here.

When you're in recovery, select "Flash zip from SD card" and then select "Toggle signature verification" to disable signature verification, and then "Choose zip from SD card" and navigate to the zip file that you want to flash.

[Q] Uninstall Clockworkmod

Guys any suggestion on how to uninstall CWM, want to give a try on roms using 4ext.

Lol. Its funny cuz i was thinking the exact same thing this morning.
However, its really simple. just go here. Go down to Download section and download 4ext Revocery Updater. Put that on your phone. install the application thru a file browser. Then open the application and press Online install | upgrade and it will ask for u to connect to 4ext servers. Click Do not display again and then press yes. Install the latest version. This will come in the form of a zip file and put that back on your computer.
Extract the recovery.img (dont rename it for simplicity sake) from the zip folder into ur sdk/platform-tools. Then open the Command Prompt and navigate to the platform-tools folder or alternatively just click shift right click and "open command window here" from within the platform-tools folder. Now power into bootloader and clock fastboot. It shoulds say fastboot USB. Now type into the cmd from your computer
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
and hit enter. Then ure recovery should be flashed. Boot into recovery and u should have 4ext touch reovery

Download 4EXT Updater. Download latest version of 4ext and the phone flashes it for you. Keep in mind that 4ext does not replace cwm, it just copies over it. You backups are still in the cwm folder.

Yes i did flash 4ext recovery and works like a charm. However, its just copied over cwm. I also dont think its possible to uninstall something once its flashed to your phone. its like when u flash something in the ROMs or other things like Mods from the recovery. U cannot remove it (at least from my basic understanding lol). Cuz whenever u wanna flash something in cwm it always says

Once its flashed "over the top", CWM is removed and 4EXT takes its place. Basically anything you flash on top of something else removes what was there before in that exact place. For example if you were sitting on a chair and I came and replaced you, you wouldn't be on that chair anymore, would you?
That is just a precaution because you can go wrong with flashing the wrong thing, and you can't un flash

Lol very nice metaphor!
I did this the other day and it worked fine. Just install the 4EXT app and install from there.

I installed the app and installed the recovery from there, everything working fine.

Downloaded the 4ext recovery, installed it on phone, did the online install, upgraded and installed 4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.5_RC9, extracted recovery image from this file put it in the android folder with the following files adb (application file), AdbWinApi.dll, boot (image file), Fastboot (application file), Unlock_code file. Connected the phone to the computer in bootloader, went to fastboot and connected it to the computer which than showed fastboot usb, went into cmd and typed fastboot flash recovery recvoery.img in the android folder with the above mentioned files with the recovery image file. Now for the past 20 minutes it is stuck at sending recovery <5466 kd>.....
Please help??? dont know what I am doing wrong???

there is other way to Flash recovery by avoiding overwriting files...I used this many time to switch between 4EXT Touch >> CWM >> TWRP...
Right click on command prompt and select 'RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR'...
Give a path of fastboot drivers... (mine is C:/android/adb) depend on ua adb driver location...
type command...
fastboot erase recovery
it will erase ua recovery (It will erase ua recovery only and only if u run command prompt as administrator)
put ua desired recovery in adb folder where u installed adb and fastboot drivers (rename it to recovery for more connivance )
type this command now...
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
it will send ua recovery to system and ua done...

Thanks but right now I am stuck at sending recovery, so if I remove cwm and than flash 4ext as you have suggested and I again get stuck on sending than I won't have any recovery...

So you are saying that after flashing 4ext, you cant boot into recovery???
Cuz i find that kinda funny considering the fact that 'flashing' means you overwrite and replace. Since 4ext is built from CWM I dont see how it wudnt be compatible. Plus our device is fully supported.

It's not that I can not boot into recovery...I cannot flash the 4ext recovery, it gets stuck at sending recovery for ages and than I have to unplug the USB and reboot the phone...

Help needed, device wiped

I was changing rom according to instructions and accidentally I have deleted my rom.zip. Now I'm stuck in recovery with nothing to flash and no idea how to push rom.zip to phone memory. I have otg cable. Can anyone come up with a solution or direction to relevant topic ?

Easiest thing would be to put your ROM.zip on your usb and plug it into your phone before entering recovery. I'm not sure if Cwm classic supports otg but Cwm touch and twrp do

I think it's called external_sd in recovery. Just flash it from there.

Apologies, I've just tried it myself in CWM Touch 6.0.3.1...
Go to Bootloader screen and plug in your cable
enter recovery
install zip from sdcard
choose zip from external sdcard
Works for me...
Sometimes if it doesn't mount I go to 'backup and restore' -> restore from external sdcard -> Go Back -> Go Back -> try it flashing from 'install zip from sdcard' again. (Although I have a nandroid backup on my usb so that may not work for you)

yeah...
put your rom.zip in your mini-sdk folder
put your phone to the bootloader screen -> select fastboot -> it should now say 'fastboot usb'
hold shift and right-click on your mini-sdk folder -> Open Command Window Here
command: fastboot devices
if your device shows, enter recovery
command: adb devices
if your device shows,
adb push name_of_your_rom.zip /sdcard be sure to put a space before /sdcard. be sure the 'name_of_your_rom' is named exactly the same as your rom.zip
After a while your rom should be on your sdcard, just flash it as normal.

Just did as you said. The tricky part is with opening command line in the specified folder, I would never have guess that you have to hold shift.
Now waiting for the file being moved to sdcard, after push command the _ is blinking as the file is being send right. File is sent XXX bytes in 222.sec
I tried to instal from the sdcard the recovery reboots itself when I press instal from sdcard

'fastboot usb' should be on the screen
again, open cmd from your mini-sdk folder
do 'fastboot devices' just to be sure your device is seen

ok, can you select install zip from sideload or does it crash?
if you can, select it and command in cmd (from your mini-sdk folder)
adb sideload name_of_your_rom.zip
once its finished sideloading it should begin install on your phone automatically
If you can't do that, try re-flashing your recovery and try everything again.
fastboot flash recovery name_of_your_recovery.img
(in 'fastboot usb') (name_of_your_recovery.img should be in mini-sdk folder)

Just hold down volume down + power button until it reboots. You may have to do it under a bright light. Keep holding them until your fastboot/hboot screen appears.
Try re-flashing your recovery as I said above and try again - if that doesn't work then I'm afraid I'm out of ideas
What ROM are you trying to install??

I don't know anything about RUUs but this is what I would do just to get a working phone:
Flash custom recovery again
Flash Android Revolution 10.2 from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38939202
Using adb push or sideload
It's 4.2.2 and close to stock
