Go to my signature and click on the CWM link. Then unzip a version and place the recovery.img on the root of your SD card. Now download Busybox installer, and terminal emulator. Install busybox and after installing open terminal emulator and then enter these commands:
Code:
$ su
# flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

i did all that installed busybox and all that stuff and i always get flash_image not found or something like that
EDIT:
Got it to work jsut need to go to 2.27.651.5 instead of 2.27.651.6
I seem to be having nearly this exact same problem. Maybe If I can flash a recovery to my hero I wont need to create a thread of my own asking for help.
What did you mean by "need to go to 2.27.651.5 instead of 2.27.651.6"?
I have root... or at least the "su" command in terminal gives me a #. I have placed the recovery image on the root directory of my sd just as dastin said and run the command but I am getting the flash_image not found error.
That's the RUU version.

Okay. Maybe my issue is not so similar after all.
I have stock that has been rooted. That is as far as I got. There were countless problems during the rooting process but I have achieved the # in the terminal. This means it's rooted right?
At this point I think I just need to flash a recovery and for some reason I can't install "ROM manager" as I get a "Parse error" when running the .apk. So I thought this manual method would solve my issues.
Maybe I should start my own thread. This might get complicated.

Why not just flash the recovery ??? From terminal,hooot, or adb.

If I use the command prompt and enter:
cd ...\android-sdk\platform-tools
adb shell
# flash_image
I still get "flash_image: not found" it's as if it's missing the command. It's the same error if I tell it where to get the .img from

Were did you place the recovery img at ??
#Root-Hack\Mod*Always_
""Shooter on Deck""
The image file is on the root directory of my sd card.
I'm not sure but it seems like the "flash_image" command just doesn't work. If I type "flash_image" and hit enter, it gives the same error as if I type "dead_bears".
dead_bears: not found
I don't think this has anything to do with my image file. I think something is wrong with the command.

Let me ask you this are you trying to flash this from terminal or from adb ?? If there isn't a copy of the recovery img in your adb tools folder then trying to flash it threw adb wouldn't take because the image isn't there. Since the img is on your SD card then you should flash it threw terminal if your not trying it already. If you want to flash it threw adb then place a copy of the recovery img in your adb tools folder and then run the commands from cmd terminal VIA pc/laptop. Also have you made sure that the recovery img is named correctly ?? Also will you post your setup, as in rom,kernel,baseband/radio, and hboot. Also how did you obtain root ??? Thanks
#Root_Hack-Mod*Always\
I am using the terminal and I have tried ADB as well. Both do the exact same thing. I obtained root manually but I had so many problems that don't remember where the guide that I followed is. I named the recovery image "r.img" for ease of typing.
I don't know about rom,kernel,baseband/radio, and hboot. I flashed stock to the phone after purchasing it so that I could get it activated, so these things are likely at defaults.
I still don't think that the "flash_image: not found" error has anything to do with the image file itself.

I think you should ruu back to stock and reroot again. Reason why I suggest this is because of how you gained root. If something wasn't done correctly we could be at this for hours and days trying to figure this out. But before you take that route I'll send you a pm with something I would like you to try that might work.

Quick??? Are you able to boot up into your Rom ???
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\
I'm not sure what you mean by that, but I decided to flash stock the other night so now I'm going to try and re-root and flash a custom ROM.
I am considering this method for re-rooting: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909258&highlight=root
Any suggestions before I get started?
What I meant by have to be on the 2.27.651.5 RUU instead of 2.27.651.6 RUU as the flash_image is not in thr 2.27.651.6 RUU so you need to be on the 5 version of stock in order to use flash_image

Hi,
I have a T-Mobile G1.
It was in Android 1.5 when I received it.
I rooted it woth the "one click" method (flashrec 1.1.2) using recovery-RA-dream-v1.2.2.img.
It worked fine, and I was able to test some ROMS.
But the last one I installed, Android 1.6 User debug from HTC, doesn't allow to get root access again.
The one click method doesn't work anymore. I get "Could not run command".
The Fastboot method doens't work anymore too.
I'm stuck with the 1.6 "Android dev phone 1".
Anyone has an idea ?
Thanks,
Yves

if i remember right the 1 click root only works with 1.5 and wont work with 1.6 . if you made a nandroid back up before you flash the 1.6 i think you can restore from there to get root .read threw the thread on 1.6 i think there was some mention of this !

I think you have still root. Do you have adb installed?
Try this one:
Code:
adb root
adb shell
Now you should get the root-prompt ("#").
The reason why you can't flash any other rom anymore is because the recovery-img operates with wrong keys (that's what I think).
What you could do now is to reflash the recovery by using the flash_image command (you have to copy the flash-image-binary on your phone first - extract it from any other rom - it's located in /system/bin).
So, copy the flash_image binary to your phone:
Code:
adb remount
adb push flash_image /system/bin/.
adb shell chmod 0755 /system/bin/flash_image
Now copy the recovery-image you want on your phone:
Code:
adb push recovery.img /sdcard/.
Flash the recovery:
Code:
adb root
adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
Now ... boot into recovery-mode ([power]+[home]) and reflash your phone with whatever you like. Since fastboot doesn't work for you I guess you have never replaced the original SPL.
And ... what I've heard ... the ADP1.6-firmware will check the recovery on boot and will reflash it every time!

Again, thank you for your help.

would this have to do with the SPL? similar to not being able to flash a EUR ROM on a USA phone .. you have to flash the HardSPL etc in order to switch ROMs
Or you could just gain root access manually the way those of us who had RC30 did...
You are may be right about the HardSPL.
When I try to flash it, (with Camera + Power), I get "not allow".
After getting into adb shell and following the commands it says:
"Cannot find recover partition"
What do I need to do?

Download the fresh kitchen and use it...
I originally rooted with the command line but corrupted my recovery image upgrading to RA1.6.2 via adb.
The fresh kitchen was the only way out of 4 i tried that was able write a new recovery image.
I am using Fresh 2.0d
Booted into RA
Hit the MS/DOS usb command
then did the commands straight from the amon_RA recovery single post thread, i.e.:
Copy recovery-RA-heroc-v1.6.2.img to the root of your sdcard
Boot into your current custom recovery (boot while holding HOME)
Connect your Hero via usb to your pc/mac/...
adb shell
$su (not required if you have root already)
#mount -a
#flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-heroc-v1.6.2.img
make sure you dont have any spelling errors...
flash_image recovery /sdcard/whatever_your_image_name_is.img

I thought kitchen (even newest version) wouldn't work with Fresh 2.0d because it is based on 2.1 sprint.

Try and download the pre-kitchen here
It still works for non-sprint phones.
I have a Sprint Hero thus the reason for posting on this particular forum.
I installed the new zen2.2 rom today and had a working clockwork recovery. Here is where I went stupid, I downloaded the kernel update but rather than running it via update.zip I flashed it using flash_image recovery via adb shell.
Now my phone comes up to fastboot usb and never goes any further, been waiting hours! I have tried booting into fastboot/hboot and it does nothing. I have booted to hboot before successfully but now nothing.
If I run adb devices it shows no devices. If I run fastboot devices it does show my device.
Whats next?
If you cant get into fastboot and you cant get into recovery then you m ight have bricked your phone. Did you try a hard reset?
How do you do a hard reset?
Here is a little more info. I believe it does actually get to fastboot usb as it says so on the top left of the screen and I can run fastboot commands but most commands say error. If I do fastboot devices it shows the device connected.
Little more info - when I try doing a back to basics RUU update it connects, shows the rom version, starts the update and then at about 88% every time, it goes right to a error [171] usb connection error. So its communicating but never finishes. Tried with the sprint RUU stock rom, another that was built by one of the devs in the Hero community and still both do the same.
I'm pretty sure you can flash a custom recovery from fastboot. Using something like fastboot flash xxx dont quote me on this but it sounds like you have a soft brick and you just need to get a recovery back on the phone. From there you can then flash and rom back on the phone. Do some research on flash a recovery from fastboot.

Right, I also believe that if I could get a recovery back on the phone I would be good as gold! Here is the problem though. I have tried running "fastboot flash recovery [recovery.img]" but it gives me the below error. I have tried multiple key combination's to get into hboot but nothing works. If anyone has any other key combination's I could try please let me know!
Code:
D:\android-sdk-windows\tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (3720 KB)... FAILED (remote: not allow)
finished. total time: 0.001s
1st:The ONLY time you use flash_image recovery is when you are installing a recovery console, NOT a kernel
If you notice the kernel is in a signed .zip folder. When you use flash_image command it needs to be .img file
2nd: Put the recovery image on your sdcard
Put it in the tools folder of AndroidSDK and do
Code:
adb push recovery.img /sdcard
Now type in
Code:
$ adb shell

I am fully aware of how the how-to's and what not to do's. Like I said, it was a mistake, call it a bit of anxiety due to the new 2.2 rom that I was trying to get installed. I did it too quick and without much common sense .

For the second part, I am unable to do anything with adb as my computer does not see the phone. When running adb devices it is not listed. Only command that sees my phone is fastboot devices, but again I am unable to run anything aside from that due to previous error.

First do you have the eng spl, does your hoot say s (on)
Have you tried that command but point it to the sdcard? Also do you have any files on your sdcard like say a recovery.img or an update zip. If you don't you might need to manually move the file to it and try some of these commands
fastboot update /sdcard/<imagepackage>.zip [-w] -w will wipe the cache and the user/data
or your previous flash recovery but with the file pointing to the file on the sdcard
edit: sorry i dont think fastboot will see the sdcard but try anyways.

I will try the fastboot command right now. I am unable to get to hboot with any of the key combination I have tried, before I was able to. Only thing that always comes up is the HTC white screen with fastboot usb at the top left. Can't see what hboot version or anything else I have due to that limitation.

After reading a bit you should be able to do something like i described
- copy amon_ra image to yor sd
- flash_image recovery /sdcard/name-of-recovery.img
hopefully you have a way to copy the files to your sd card like say a microsd card converter and stick it in your comp. Or I have had to use a freaking camera once for my g1 after being in a similar situation.
edit: ok so maybe you wont be able to if you spl is in s-off mode.
if you can access your card and see if you have nadroids you could also try this
fastboot flash system /path/to/nandroid/system.img
fastboot flash boot /path/to/nandroid/boot.img
fastboot flash userdata /path/to/nandroid/userdata.img
fastboot reboot
hopefully you have these backed up on your puter to.

Negative on the fastboot commands. Also did have a nandroid but on old sdcard which died. I read that I could use anothers nandroid backup but I am currently trying to find one to test.
Tried doing the RUU method with stock/custom roms and it gets as far as seeing the image but when I click on "ok" to start the recovery, it goes to "waiting on bootloader" and then at 88% it errors to a 171 error stating usb connection error.
I would do some research its my understanding that you can't be bricked since you can get into spl. You should be able to put an .img file on your sd card and flash it. Sorry I can give you any more input.

Ya I have been researching non stop all yesterday evening and today so far all day. I just cant get it to do anything. I will keep researching though. Thanks
Did you fix this yet?
Anyone figure this out yet...I have the same issue and haven't been able to resolve it yet. Still with a brick at this point!
Hey guys,if your stuck at fastboot(As I just was tonight), try in your CMD(if running Windows) fastboot reboot-bootloader or fastboot reboot to reboot as normal,I'll try to keep you updated to get through all this. I am at a loss right now but searching for answers first before i go about asking.
Answer to MY problem(maybe not yours): OK,I have come to the conclusion here tonight that I had a soft brick. What I did was remove the battery,put the battery back in,restarted the phone normally,then I ran the HTC Sprint Hero MR 2.27.651.6 on my computer(essentially restoring back to unrooted factory settings). This worked for me. I am totally refreshed and happy that my phone is ok and all. Yes I may have to go back and re-root but this only take me bout 20 minutes most to root and re-flash a CyanMod7 Nightly Rom. Hope my info can help out somebody!
i have two recovery images on my sdcard, and neither of them are flashing, i rooted using z4root. that was the only method i could find to root my phone after the weeklong search. ive recently had to re root because i got a refurb. either way they stuck me with .7 i updated to .2 because i could not root .7 got it rooted , yay, but now i am having the hardest time flasing a recovery image. i tried using rom manager to get clockworks but the download from the market would not download, so i put it on my sdcard and did it myself. so i have rom manager now, but it keeps telling me i need reliable connection, im on wifi and i have five bars. ive had no luck.
i pushed both the recovery images i have on my sd card, and i tried to flash them but it keeps telling me they cant find them.

If you haven't already checked it. Try making sure the recovery is named .img & not. img.img on your sd card
Edit also make sure the recovery img is not in any folder. As in just on your sd/card
Yea its me again. With the
Modified Hero
Just get rom manager from the market and install clockwork recovery from the app. It sounds like you dont have the binary for flash_image.

Hey there - hope somebody can help me!
* I've got a G1, which was ROOT and on Cynogenmod6.1
* I followed a guide to unroot my device and bring it back to 1.6 with normal SPL ..
Today, I wanted to root my phone again and update it again to Cyanogenmod6.1.
Installed RomManager and ClockwordMod-Recovery. Bootet to the Recovery and chosed "Update Zip". I wanted to flash the DangerSPL. That's the point everything crashed....
I can't start CWM-Recovery again, pressing HOME+POWER just brings me to the (original?) Recovery, which doens't accept any update.zip.
Hope I could fix it with Terminal or with TelnetD, but i can't.
What can i do? Help me please

Would be interesting to know, what SPL is installed.
If you had an engineering SPL, fastboot is you friend, you can flash a new recovery image directly.
Otherewise, if you do not have root access, I would suggest to boot the phone, install AndRoot / OneClickRoot or something like that and gain root access again. Then, having root access, you should be able to flash a new recovery using flash_image.
Hey there. It's the normal SPL. The one with the coloured background >.>
And, i've got root - but the flash_image thing isn't working. With no programm..
(Terminal/Flashrec/..)
):
Did you follow the instructions from here? There you can find a link to the flash_image binary, too.
You need to extract the zip, copy the flash_image binary on sdcard and probably you need to change the attributes to executeable (i am not sure). Then you need to copy the recovery.img to sdcard, too. After that, open the terminal application on your phone, go to super user mode and execute
/sdcard/flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

Is sdcard mounted? If yes, do a
chmod +x /sdcard/flash_image

and try it again.
