lost recovery - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I lost my clockwork recovery. I checked to see if there was a UImage file in /boot and there is not one there.
I don't have a computer so doing anything through adb cannot happen.
Thoughts?

This should be in Q&A, but install goo manager than you can install trwp (install OpenRecoveryScript) either use that or if you want CWM flash it through TWRP

Stuck booting into recovery

SO i was running nook color version 1.1.0 and i used the autonooter to get clockwork installed. I then tried to use the monster rootpack to install phiremod but after it says install is complete i rebooted but now every time i reboot it goes directly to clockwork and i cant get it to boot up normally. is there anything i can do besides a restore to stock to install phiremod/cm7 or exit recovery? BTW i did remove the monster sd card so thats not the reason its booting that way....
When booted to CWR, use adb:
adb shell
Check that rom is mounted with:
mount
You should see /rom somewhere in the returned result.
If it's mounted, do:
echo -n -e "\x08\x00\x00\x00" > /rom/devconf/BootCnt
If not:
mkdir /rom
mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /rom
Then use previous command.
If that doesn't help, you can always flash my cwr remover .zip, found on my nook color restore to stock thread.

thanks im going to try that right now.
So i am trying to run adb but it says device not found and i cant figure out how to get the device to mount
I had the same thing happen. In recovery, install the zip file in this post to remove recovery and keep it rooted. You will then be able to reboot normally.

I read that it does that with autonooter 3.0. What you need to do is reboot normally after flashing recovery (don't reboot into recovery immediately after flashing). Afterwards you can reboot into recovery.
Hello guys,
I had the same problem, but with Team Win Recovery
I tried to remove TWR folder in sdcard, wipe Cache, Dalvik cache and even factory reset.
I installed a new rom, and as last attempt i tried to wipe all system tree, but nothing happen.
I tried to fix following the list showed in this post, but I'm not able to mount "mmcblk0p2".
Any ideas? There is a TWR remover ?
Advance thank for helps.

Not really sure what you are saying was your problem. But I have a lot of solutions to booting problems in my nook color tips thread linked in my signature. See items A8 and A12. And there is my partition repair thread.

Clockwork mod missing

Hi everybody I had a question, I tried installing TWRP from goomanager for the touchpad the other day. When it installed I went in to moboot and tried opening it it gave me the error invalid size. Also, after installing TWRP to option for clockwork mod disappeared on my moboot. So through intrernalz pro on web os I was able to remove the uimage of twrp from the boot folder, but that left me with only the option to boot into cyanogenmod and no type of recovery option available. I tried using acmeinstaller2, to just install CWM but after restarting there was nothing added to my moboot. I am sort of at a stand still since with out a recovery i cant update, nor can i recover from a back up. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys.

Do you still have "ulmage.ClockworkMod" in the boot folder, it sounds like it must be gone or it should show up as an option in moboot? With mine when I installed TWRP it didn't change the options in moboot, moboot still says ClockworkMod but when that is selected it goes into TWRP and there is no "ulmage.TWRP" in my boot folder. I thought that was how TWRP was meant to install on the TP. I'm not sure if there is another way to install CWM other than with the ACME2installer, might be worth a search.
Did you make sure "update-cwm_tenderloin-1012" was in the "cminstall" folder when you ran ACME2?
You could move your backup to comp, run ACMEuninstaller and webos doctor and start from scratch and install CM9. Then just restore from your backup. I've done that a few times for other reasons.
Good Luck
Thanks for the help man, the CWM i was using was called recovery_cwm and i just had to change the name to update_cwm and let acmeinstaller do the rest. Saved me alot of time by avoiding uninstalling everything and restoring.

CWM gone while installing TWRP through gooMan
Hi Zero,
Sorry but I am totally new to android and on how to install it in my TP. But, I was successfully running Cyanogenmod for sometime now until I thought of installing TWRP in my TP instead of CWM as installing nightly updates was becoming difficult for me.
I tried to install twrp through gooManager so that I would have both the option of Clockworkmod and twrp. SInce twrp is a better ui, I thought of using it instead of ClockworkMod.
So, I went to their site: teamw.in/project/twrp2/75
and followed the following:
Install the app and open it. Tap menu then hit Install OpenRecoveryScript. Tap Yes. Verify that the filename displays your device's code name and hit Yes. The file will download and your device will reboot and install the recovery automatically.
By doing so, it did not reboot but while I tried to reboot myself, I saw that the ClockWorkMod menu is gone from moboot and I have no recovery option left. The menu has 'Boot TWRP' but when selecting that, it says corrupt data and my TP hangs.
Please guide me in getting CWM back or get the TWRP.
Please help!!! Thanks in anticipation.

If you have the install zip from sd card option, then flash jcsullins' recovery. Use the 12/15 version.
You can also install the same recovery using acmeinstaller 3.
There's a moboot cleaning utility, on the classic nerds' site (use it if you need to get rid of 'ghost' uimages).
Edit : here's the link to jcsullins' recovery : http://goo.im/devs/jcsullins/cmtouchpad/recovery

TWRP Install renames to CWM - I want both

I downloaded the new 2.1 TWRP and installed it using CWM I discovered that on the moboot menu it still reads CWM but boots TWRP. I would like to keep both on the tablet for now. Any ideas on how to install CWM and have both TWRP and CWM show up on the mobbot menu? Thanks.

Fastboot CWM again.
I did it last night and now I am stuck with both. I wanted only CWM but I can't get rid of TWRP. When I hit reboot to recovery, I go to TWRP but I can choose CWM from Moboot.

Solved with another method
SOLVED: I since have learned that TWRP replaces CWM and as a convenience to the user and renames TWRP so it appears as CWM for purposes of going into recovery. There were a number of solutions to add back CWM. The one I used requires a file manager with root access. I extracted the CWM image from the zip file and copied it into the boot directory and renamed it uimage.CWM2. I reset the permissions to match the the other moboot images found in boot. Once the tablet is restarted moboot inventories the images found in boot and adds them to the menu. For the time being I now have both TWRP and CWM. The only caution is to make sure you have enough room in the boot directory. You can also remove entries from the moboot menu by deleting image files. Proceed with caution and always backup before proceeding.

[Q] Cannot root my One

I have unlocked my bootloader via htcdev.
I have flashed CWM, CWMT and TWRP. I could never get TWRP to boot, but I can get CWM and CWMT to boot.
Once in recovery, I go to choose zip to install and I can only browse a few locations such as /0, /audio /Android /video. There are maybe like 6 folders in total. I cannot browse to sdcard or mount sdcard. How can I get my SuperSU zip into one of these folders?
Or....why is it only mounting /system?
I even tried fastboot flash boot recovery.img (DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME FOLKS) so I would boot st8 into recovery and it still mounts the same folders.

I had to flash TWRP twice before it took. Don't know why. I also had some issues with rooting so I let TWRP do it for. Figured since they released their new version first for the ONE it should work and it did. All you have to do is go to reset once you get into TWRP and it will ask if you want to root. Pretty nifty if you ask me
LOL guess what I just realized?! I have the Sprint version, which has a different TWRP version and forum LOLZ!

How do I send SuperSU to the /sdcard/ folder?

So I'm trying to root my Sprint M7. I've succeeded in doing the following.
1. Unlocked the boot loader
2. Installed CW Touch recovery
Now I think the next step is to go into Fastboot/Recovery and install the SuperSU zip from /sd_card/
That's the step I'm having problems with. How do I get the SuperSU zip onto the /sd_card/ folder? When I plug in my phone I just get HTC Sync manager popping up and I can't browse the phone's directory because Sync Manager says the phone is not connected.
Running Win 7 64.
Thanks

uninstall htc sync (but don't touch the drivers)
boot your phone in CWM
Code:
adb push supersu.zip /sdcard
then flash supersu.zip using CWM
or easy way
flash latest twrp recovery for sprint version instead of CWM
boot in recovery and exit, you'll be prompted to root the phone before leaving twrp, select yes.
