I recently rooted my phone using the all in one revo package i got from this site. My phone rooted easily and I now have superuser on my applications list. However, I also installed CWM from the package and the installation process says that it was installed successfully, but it isn't actually on my phone.
Or if it is I can't find it anywhere. Anyone have a solution? I'm not really sure how it can be installed, but not installed. lol

excellent it worked! Thank you very much. I guess I just thought it would be an app called Clockworkmod instead of Quick Boot lol

Hello. I just got the VZW tab yesterday and followed all the forums to root with oneclick. Worked. Used rom manager to flash CWM 3 and it will boot into it, however, the option to flash a file isnt there. Only wipe cache, factory reset, and flash update.zip and reboot. I've looked everywhere for two days.
Any ideas? Thank you for your help

Today, Koush added support for the Droid 3 to ClockworkMod.
This includes releasing a Droid 3 Bootstrap which I believe he'll have some download links for or be placing on the market.
BEWARE: If you plan on using the new bootstrap from Koush, PLEASE use the "Remove Recovery" button and uninstall my Bootstrap APK before installing his.
Don't use 2 Bootstrap APKs together. Universe Explode. Or, maybe it could be unpredictable if you decide to remove mine later.
Thank you for listening to this public service announcement.
i see it in the market
Whats the difference with this one and yours Hashcode? Are you still updating yours?
-smc
Its the newest version. It works with rom manager. Probably flashes all partitions, but not sure.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
So you don't need to install bootstrap before installing this?
So quick question, if we were to flash something and it ended up boot looping, like flashing a theme, how do we get back into cwm if we can't get back into android to access the app? Need to be able to restore in case something like this happens.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
No. You have to uninstall the previously released bootstrap/recovery. After which you install this new one.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
Yep uninstall Hashcodes version from his app, then install the "Droid 3 bootstrap" on the market or from here http://t.co/IM110WZ3 then use clockwork mod to install the recovery for Droid 3 in the flashable list.

Yeah i'm also curious how your supposed to get back into recovery in case of a boot loop?
Are either you or Koush going to be continuing work on your alternate-system-partition scheme for making 2nd-init not an accident waiting to happen?

This. It is nice having official support, but the idea of keeping a 99% pure system and almost no risk of fubaring 2nd-init is extremely attractive.
Hmm not sure how to access the recovery from device power down using this, going to bptools just initiates a normal start up.
-smc
I too hope we see the 2nd init partition I Don't plan on installing the official at this point.
I used Hashcode's app to uninstall his recovery.. rebooted... downloaded Koush's Rom Manager from the market.. installed... started the app and flashed clockworkmod recovery... gave su permissions.... clicked Reboot into Recovery and it just reboots normally... no CWM... am i missing a step? is there a keyboard combo that will boot into CWM... vol-down+power only takes you to fastboot..
Thanks to all for continuing to develop this phone!

Thanks! worked perfectly! I couldn't see the forest for the trees
I seem to be having some issues getting this to work.
I uninstalled the Hashcode recovery, then removed his app. After that I downloaded the Droid3 recovery from the market and installed that. Going into Rom Manager, after a reboot, I was it did not list any Clockwork as being installed. I clicked on the list and Droid 3 was now one of the options so I applied that and went to test by having Rom manager reboot into recovery.
It sat there for a good 5 minutes on the red Motorola logo. Pulled the battery to reboot and it booted fine but I cannot figure out how to access the recovery.

Using the bootstrap app make sure you click bootstrap recovery then reboot recovery using the app. See if that helps.

Well I have had the Revolution for about a week now. I have rooted it and downloaded the CWM. Also have read that CWM for revo will soon work with ROM Manager. Any new news on this. I want to change ROMS and Im not sure how else to do so.

To flash a ROM in CWM:
1. Download ROM and move to your SD card
2. Reboot into by either downloading an app or by powering down the phone and then pressing Power and Volume down until you are prompted to wipe phone data. Press power button twice and you will boot into CWM.
3. In CWM make a backup (inside backup and restore menu)
4. After the back up wipe user data, cache, and dalvik (dalvik located in advanced menu)
5. Go to flash a zip --> choose zip --> choose the zip --> Select yes
6. After it flashes go back and wip data, cache, and dalvik again
7. Reboot
8. profit

Full instructions, from receiving the phone for the first time to Gingervolt:
1. BEFORE ROOTING, install any OTA updates. (Settings> About phone> Software Update)
2. Root. I used the latest SuperOneClick, with psneuter. (Zergrush doesn't seem to work after updating) Ignore the warning that says psneuter doesn't usually work on devices on 2.3.3+.
3. Use RevoToolkit to install CWM. DO NOT use ROM Manager, as it will leave you unable to leave recovery.
4. Get everything ready for flashing:
4a. Get Gingervolt and put it in your SD card.
4b. Make sure that the device has 4G enabled. (Settings> Wireless & Networks> Mobile networks> System select> Network mode: LTE/CDMA)
5. Reboot into recovery. RevoToolkit has a button for it. You can also hold Power and Volume Down buttons while the device starts up.
6. In CWM recovery, make a backup. (backup and restore> Backup)
7. Wipe user data. (Wipe data/Factory reset)
8. Install Gingervolt. (Install zip from sdcard)
9. Reboot
10. Complete initial setup.
11. ???
12. PROFIT
Enjoy!
When I try to create a backup, it says "cant mount /sdcard"
anyone can tell me how to work around this? im getting into cwm recovery through revotoolkit

Is there an sd card in your phone? Dumb question I know but I have to ask.
lol yea there is an sd card. don't think there's anything wrong with it and it's not an issue of not enough space on the card cause i still have like 14gb of room left on it.
What are you doing with that anyways I have never heard of anyone using it?
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium
just trying to back up my current ROM but it won't let me. CWM just says "can't mount /sdcard"
i used the All In One method pkg to root, then installed the ROM Manager and went into recovery mode to install Gingervolt 2.0. Afterwards i went into recovery mode and did a factory reset to delete all the crap that for some reason was left over from before rooting. now it won't leave recovery mode
Did you install cwm recovery from ROM manager?

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?
