I have noticed though if you press the home and menu button the Selection bar goes up and down and search button now enters.
Feel free to mirror.

Place on the root of your SDCard boot in to Hboot mode and it will want to flash say yes and reboot.
If your like me and are fastboot fans you can type.

if it won't work through the .zip file - try this:
Extract the zip, and rename to recovery.img to make it simple in ADB.
move the recovery.img to the same folder as your fastboot is in so it will be in ANDROID-SDK / TOOLS / recovery.img
as fastboot is located in ANDROID-SDK / TOOLS / fastboot.exe
then follow these commands EXACTLY as I tell you.
reboot phone in to bootloader - Power off, then HOLD volume down and press power, use volume keys for up and down and select fastboot.
now, open command line and start ADB - This part I expect you to know if you have a rooted phone, but humour me - the commands are " adb start-server"
remount, and open a shell - the commands are "adb remount", then enter "adb shell"
then enter the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
FINALLY, enter "fastboot reboot"
Recovery update complete... try rebooting into recovery to confirm this.
PLEASE NOTE - Some people have had issues with running fastboot through shell, if the above steps do not work try this: -
reboot phone in to bootloader - Power off, then HOLD volume down and press power, use volume keys for up and down and select fastboot.
now, open command line and start ADB - This part I expect you to know if you have a rooted phone, but humour me - the commands are " adb start-server"
Remount, "adb remount"
now we are ready to get started to flash this recovery, firstly you must navigate to your fastboot folder - fastboot is located in ANDROID-SDK / TOOLS / fastboot.exe - and launch cmd from the tools folder.
to do this you must first erase your current recovery and then flash the new recovery.img
So to wipe the recovery, when in terminal enter " fastboot erase recovery "
then enter the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
FINALLY, enter "fastboot reboot"
Recovery update complete... try rebooting into recovery to confirm this.
PLEASE NOTE please ensure you have entered these commands carefully or you will NOT have a recovery on your phone.

guys i have clockworkmod V4xxxx something... and thinking to upgrade to this 1... so can u tell me how to do it?? should i just enter recovery by pressing vol. down n power button and then flash this zip from my current clockworkmod??
You need to flash it via fastboot.
Flashing in recovery will give you temperory recovery. After reboot you will be reverted to your previous recovery.

First make a nandroid backup
Download the PC49IMG.zip file from the OP put on root of sdcard then power off , power on with volume down pressed and when it asks to update say yes wait to finish then power off
Remove sdcard use pc to delete PC49IMG.zip reinsert sdcard then power on
If you use custom partitions you need to boot in to cwm and restore your partitions and your backup that you made earlier then reboot
Nice, i'm using it now. Thx bro
using it now!
Worked like a charm, thanx!
It seems that after I flashed the recovery my phone gets stuck on the htc logo screen. And as mentioned above i deleted the update file after flashing

i lost recovery while flashing gingerbread asop rom,now my phone wont boot past the x screen it stays stuck at the triangle with an ! point in it and the android icon on the bottom .Can some one please help me bring my n1 back to life?
Can you get to the bootloader screen?
How can u back your device
I hope u have usb mode enable under system settings.Anyway it may work agün ı use it so much for recovery.
So there is yourstep
1-First Download Htc Orginal non edited Htc N1 image.
2-Download Android SDK
3-Then bootyour device with trackball push with the same time man.
4-İts open a console mode which is recovery and etc.
5.Then open your commoand center(windows icon thne type cmd and change ypur directory to andorid sdk install folder=C:\android-sdk-windows\tools)
6-Orginal Steps But u can use my way:
7-When the commoand promt: Confirm fastboot connection fastboot devices
fastboot erase userdata--This step may not work but dont be panic man ok--
fastboot erase cache--This step may not work but dont be panic man ok--
8. Go to the directory that you stored your unzipped files.U need open and cmd and chnge diretory whre the file is okk--
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
9.Skip to step 13 if you want to keep recovery (assuming you have a modified recovery such as Amon_RA's recovery). If not fastboot flash recovery recovery.img--U use orginal one.You must need for frg83d update--
Step 10. fastboot reboot
After that u can update
Google are pushing out a 1.3MB FRG83 -> FRG83D patch OTA.
The file can be downloaded here - http://android.clients.google.com/pa...3.ecb21b75.zip
Just change your file name update.zipput sd card and install over recovery mod ok
I've had a quick look at the zip, in summary:
* Updates to the core and framework JARs
* Updates to the Dalvik VM and Webcore libraries
* Updates to the Email, Google Services Framework and and Market packages.
* A couple of other very minor patches
AFTER THAT U CAN ROOT YOUR DEVİCE
So u can install amonra after that ok.
Ps:Make some noise if its work okkk
yes but thats as far as it goes , when i press recovery it goes to the triangle screen
exactly what do i type cuz my fastboot isnt picking up my device
If you flashed Chris' AOSP build then you can use the recovery to flash a CM ROM and then use adb to flash a custom recovery.

But he doesnt have a custom working recovery and it seems his fast boot doesnt work. This is some predicament.
how would i get fastboot to work?
Isn't the triangle the recovery? Just rename a Cm ROM to update.zip on the root of your SD card and then go into recovery. It takes a bit but it should start loading the ROM. I did the same thing when I loaded the ROM.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Still stuck !
You stuck at the triangle of error screen when go into recovery?
That mean you can go into fastboot/bootloader?
Seems that you flash HBOOT 35.0017
I believe you need to be fully booted, or in recovery, and have usb debugging enabled to use adb.
To get fastboot to work, install the latest sdk drivers...

Hi there,
I've just installed CM 6.1.1 via Amon Ra's recovery. CyanogenMod is pretty damn good I must say. At any rate, I got interested in the ClockWork ROM manager app and decided to give it a try. Seemed to install OK from the first menu item but (foolishly foolish now it seems) I didn't do anything to remove Amon Ra's original recovery before installing via the menu.
At any rate, any of the options I choose from the Flash ClockworkMod Recovery to require a reboot into the recovery don't work. "Reboot into recovery" and "backup current ROM" reboot and intitally give me the regular Nexus One splash (with unlock icon) then go to a black screen. I can still get to the regular bootloader screen by holding the trackball and pressing power but going to HBOOT gives me a blackscreen on reboot too.
I've given the forums a pretty good trawl but haven't found any answers so far. I wondered about flashing back to a stock bootloader but haven't found any instructions that don't also require flashing back to the stock ROM also.
Can anyone tell me how to flash the bootloader properly/fully (with ClockWork) given the fact that I appear to have broken it. Any help would be greatly appreciated - I really like the idea of being able to use the ClockWork ROM manager!
Use fastboot to flash an SLCD compatible recovery.
Blackscreen means that the SLCD driver is missing and cannot correctly display the recovery.
The compatible recoveries are Amon_ra 1.9 alpha and above and only the latest clockworkmod recovery (which is only available through a certain menu in the ROM Manager app)
Wrong forum bud but here you go:
1) Download this
2) Reboot to bootloader (Open up a cmd window in your sdk/tools/ folder and type 'adb reboot bootloader')
3) Copy recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.0-passion.img to the tools folder.
4) Verify fastboot recognises your device: 'fastboot devices'
5) Issue command 'fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.0-passion.img'
6) Finally reboot using 'fastboot reboot'
You should then be able to use ROM manager just fine
Edit: Or follow the above post using the Rom manager gui.
Wrong forum! Doh! Apologies. Just noticed I'm now listed below this thread: "Thread DELETED/Locked??? >>>> This is DEVELOPMENT section not Q&A/General!!!! <<<<" Hope I don't get whacked with the ban hammer.
Thanks for the amazingly fast replies guys. Tried flashing the clockwork .img file (not using adb but linux-fastboot seems to work OK on my Ubuntu install) and rebooted from the bootloader with the HBOOT - recovery option and tried fasboot-linux reboot from terminal. Still getting a black screen. Same with reinstalling Clockwork recovery from the GUI. Hmmmm.
Incidentally, is there anyway to tell from the bootloader screen what recovery flashes are installed?

Oh wait, your HBOOT is black or your recovery? Try a direct "reboot recovery" command from your terminal to see if the recovery now works...
If it's only the hboot, you should be able to flash the 0.35 hboot which supports SLCD
or fastboot oem rebootRUU - if your device's bootloader is unlocked, else be aware that any fastboot command will unlock it, even if you don't apply the oem unlock.
Only clockwork 2.5.1.1 and above, our Amon 1.9 and above is compatible.
Open ROM Manager, and flash a newer version. The option is under All Clockwork Recoveries, at the bottom of the initial page...

Utter crap.
Righto so I've already flashed to the latest version of clockwork (from the GUI) which is where things started getting funky. When I get back to my laptop ill try rebooting into recovery instead of using hboot. And perhaps try flashing to hboot 3.5 if you guys think this might help. I do still get a blackscreen from using the reboot into recovery option from theROM manager GUI.
EDIT: Oh cool. Just read your post more carefully danger-rat. Went to 2.5.1.1 of clockwork and I'm all sorted when booting into recovery from the GUI. Not sure about hboot but I guess if its working from the GUI its all good. ') Thanks for the help people.
EDIT EDIT: I really should try things before posting, anyways hboot works good too now! Niiiiice.
Hey guys,
Before I get flame at, let me point out a few things
1.) I've been searching throughout the forum in and out to find the answer to my question but I have failed so.
2.) I'm using a custom firmware by nikhil007mmus Jelly Bean 4.1 on my HTC Incredible S
3.) Recently I was curious about new firmware from PACman. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2105869
Hence my question is,
I'm using the original ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0, and I found out PACman firmware need to be flash using 4EXT recovery.
I've tried to install 4EXT Recovery, followed ALL the steps provided by alot of people, but everytime after finished installing all the settings and configuration, when I boot up my recovery it is still on ClockworkMod
Why is this so? What did I do wrong? D:
In need of serious guidance or help here

You need to have adb and fastboot installed in your computer.. if you are using windows you need the htc usb drivers as well
are you on windows?
Just install the 4EXT recovery app from the play store. Follow the steps and it will flash it for you.
Is your device unlocked?
Wow, this is some crazy in-depth **** goin' on!

Download the recovery zip file.
extract the recovery.img file and place it in C:\android-sdk\platform-tools\recovery.img
Open up command prompt and type:
cd \android-sdk\platform-tools
Now, make sure it detects your android:
fastboot devices
You'll see a line with a serial number, you're good to go (remember you need to be in fastboot mode while you do all of this, Vol. Up + Power while off)
Now, just flash the recovery.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Would this work on the inspire 4g. IV tried flashing it from the app didn't work so now I'm here using the search button. Any suggestions?

By downloading recovery zip file you mean going into 4EXT website and download it down?
Once I extract it out, I need to put inside my phone's SD card right? I'm pretty lost at this part now.
I got how you mean by doing all this in the fastboot mode (The white screen with lines of words and THREE androids below the screen, correct?)
And I'm not sure about flashing the recovery.img, oh god..

In the bootloader go fastboot USB, I think you need debugging on but not certain. Then your ready to type command.
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium
Connect your phone to your computer via usb (Make sure usb debugging is checked on the phone)
Open a command prompt window
type the following
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
Oh okay sweet, so I still need to go to 4EXT to download the file first before proceeding right?
No need am attaching the latest 4EXT TOUCH Recovery Zip file
Extract and follow instructions above.
Also dont forget to check the md5 of the .img file. You brick your device if you flash a corrupt recovery
If it works click "Thanks"
Please report if it works and if it does..please edit the title of your thread and added a '[Solved]' to it in the begining
Okay thanks alot! I will try it along the week, I'm kinda busy with daily work schedule recently,

These steps are manual steps on how to do them and if u just want 4EXT Recovery, then you can download the 4EXT Recovery App. The app will download the proper files as well as flash the recovery once the download is finished.

If you still need help, I wrote this guide for you and anyone else who is confused.
Now that you have unlocked the bootloader follow these steps.
1. Boot into the bootloader by pressing volume down + power.
2. Press the power button to enter fastboot.
3. Make sure that beneath the first few lines on the top of the screen it says fastboot usb highlighted in red.
4. Find a version of TWRP, WCX, or whatever recovery image you are going to use and then extract it into the folder on your computer.
5. In CMD, type this:
fastboot flash recovery "name of the file.img"
6. Press [bootloader] to go back to the main menu (without the brackets).
7. Scroll down with the volume button to recovery.
8. Boot into recovery.
If your recovery works, do this to use a custom rom.
9. Go back into the bootloader by turning your phone off and then using power + volume down.
10. Download a custom rom and open up the .zip file. Then, extract the file named boot.img and extract it into the folder on your computer.
11. Enter fastboot and type this into CMD:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
12. Go back into your recovery (following the steps above from 6-8). Mount your internal SD card and put on the file of the custom rom you wish to use onto your storage. Be sure to copy the file in .zip format, not after it has been extracted.
If your custom rom needs Google Apps, then download the correct file which should be specified in the download area of your rom's post.
13. Go back into the main menu of your recovery and then choose the option to flash the file.
14. Choose the file that you have just loaded onto your storage.
15. Flash Google Apps if you need it.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416836 Is this basically explaining the same thing?
Yes... But since vivid users are notoriously bad at using the search feature on the website... Or in tapatalk...
We have to have 10000 of the same goddamn thread...

Nah, used the search function to find this thread and others. Thats how I wound up here. But anyways thanks for the info.
I rooted and romed my phone pretty much right out of the box roughly 8 months ago. I used clockwork mod to Flash an AOKP rom .
I decided it was time for a change, Unfortunately it seems the game has changed LOL
Im rooted, S-Off etc but im running ClockworkMod and most Rom's seem to require TWRP.
I did a little research which led me to Goomanager to flash TWRP.
My Question is how can i go from Clockwork mod to TWRP?
What is the safest way to do this? Id like to try HD Revolution or Venom.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Step 1 Download Recovery
Step 2 Download Fastboot Files http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390135922294522457 and extract on desktop
Step 3 Put downloaded recovery into fastboot folder

Step 1 Download Recovery <- check MD5 of TWRP, the site does NOT like download managers
....
Step 7 Now write following fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img and press ENTER
Step 8 Now write following fastboot erase cache and press ENTER <- never hurts
Now it should be flashed. Now reboot into recovery
DONE!

a small addition, above in blue
and also 2.6.3.4 is out too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173870
Sorry, I have another question. How do I check the Md5 of twrp? I downloaded the TWRP ISO from the link you provided ( thnks BTW)
and I downloaded the Android fastboot kit V1.4.
I think i understand the rest of the steps, this is just a very different method than I'm used to .
Some research showed that a few people ended up in bootloop after screwing this up, I want to avoid that at all cost, Thanks again for the advice
