[Q] Clockwork Mod to 4EXT recovery

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!
I am on windows, mind to lay down all the things I need and the steps to follow?
I will read it tomorrow morning, needs to sleep now, it's past midnight here already lol
thanks again!

of course it is if you have already installed custom rom...how stupid of me

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?

Did the 4EXT app automatically detect the device properly? Is the recovery compatible with your device?

Yes it detected my phone and yes its compatible cuz the custom Rom I'm running supposedly had it built in but it's still cwm...... Android revolution hd 7.3
Sent from my HTC Inspire 4G using Tapatalk 2

Thanks for the reply again lol,
and yeah I've flashed it to a custom rom lol.
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,
Will update once I try it!
Thanks alot!

I'll bookmark this for my future usage tooo, this is good thread on switching CWM to 4EXT:good:

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.

I forgot to put a ROM on my sdcard before wiping/flashing kernel and my phone won't boot now. How do I get a ROM on there?
If you have a nandroid backup on the phone, resore it. If you don't have a backup, copy the ROM you wanted to install to the phone via 'adb push rom-name.zip /data/media/rom-name.zip' Then flash as described above.
Or easier go to TWRP recovery ---advanced ----- and adb sideload

Send from my awesome 1080p

you have to make sure it is the exact ruu for your device or you will get an error

Try to get into boot loader or recovery. Make sure the phone is under light and try resetting it by pressing power and volume down. The phone can not be in a dark room or this will not work. Then connect your phone to the computer. Navigate on your PC to where you have the Android platform tools. Now hold down SHIFT and right click in this folder where the platform tools are, and select open command prompt here. Type in "ADB devices" with no quotation marks. You should see your phone come up, it will probably be something like "HT something something" this is the serial number of your phone. If you see this continue. Make sure the ROM that you are trying to put on your phone is in the same folder when you held shift and right clicked. Now you need to type "ADB push" followed by the exact name of the ROM that you placed in the same folder as the platform tools. So it should be "ADB push ROM_NAME /sdcard" without the quotation marks. The /sdcard part tells the computer where to place the ROM on your phone. If you are able to do this, reboot into recovery and you should be able to flash the ROM from there. A side note, it could take anywhere from 1 to 5 or 6 minutes to push this ROM to your phone, roms for this phone are big files and they take a while to push in this way.

You should also uninstall HTC Sync manager, this will not allow you to use the ADB commands

Hope you get this sorted out. If not, we need more info like where and when you bought the device what carrier your on, what firmware you had and what rom you were flashing. Also if your running windows and what version or mac/Linux.

Ok, that worked it's relocked now.
Now what?

Hmm I get a different error now "signature verify fail"

Since I can't flash from fastboot I tried taking the rom.zip out of a RUU (RUU_GOLF_U_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_1.35.401.1_Radio_10.08.98.09H_1.05.98.08M2_release_260338_signed)

Apparently I can flash the rom from fastboot, but it fails:
Do I just need the right one?

After locking the boot loader unlock it again and try telling cwm or twrp

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.
16. Thank me if it worked

works like a charm:laugh:

How to install OTA
If s off and super cid don't lock your boot loader again leave it unlocked
Make sure your device is unrooted and matching cid.
Make sure all missing apps that was lost when unlocking bootloader is there in /data/preload/apps.
Make sure u have stock recovery and reboot to it and if u r doing it manually all u have to do is rename ota to update.zip and go to stock recovery then hold power and double press vol up for options then go to install from ext sd card and navigate to the file and make sure u put it on the root of the ext sd card.
How to install firmware
Extract firmware file from Ota and put it to the root of the ext sd card and rename it to P068IMG.zip then reboot to boot loader when ur there use power key to select bootloader and the file will load just follow instructions and u will be updated.
Option two is that u can use a pc using fastboot type fastboot oem rebootRUU then when it's loaded type fastboot flash zip firmware.zip it will install if it says flush again repeat the fastboot flash zip firmware.zip. when ur done type fastboot reboot-bootloader to check if your firmware is updated
S-ON Details on how to flash a rom
Download the rom and copy to your phone
Download fastboot tools if you don't have them
Extract the adb folder in the fastboot zip to somewhere (E.g. C:\adb)
Open the rom zip and extract the boot.img file to the adb folder
Connect your phone to your pc
Hold shift and right-click somewhere in the adb folder, select "Open command window here"
Restart your phone to bootloader, then select fastboot.
Type "adb devices" (don't type the " " for this or the others)
It should show your phone's serial number, if not download HTC Sync Manager and install
Type "fastboot erase cache"
Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Type "fastboot erase cache" again
Type "fastboot reboot recovery" to get to CWM or TWRP, whichever you have installed
Backup your system, data, and cache
Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system
Install the rom.

Good lookin out for this...Will be needed once Kit Kat is released for our phone.

How to install OTA
If s off and super cid don't lock your boot loader again leave it unlocked
Make sure your device is unrooted and matching cid.
Make sure all missing apps that was lost when unlocking bootloader is there in /data/preload/apps.
Make sure u have stock recovery and reboot to it and if u r doing it manually all u have to do is rename ota to update.zip and go to stock recovery then hold power and double press vol up for options then go to install from ext sd card and navigate to the file and make sure u put it on the root of the ext sd card.

Hi, i have three questions, i am 901s, not supercid, s-off, unlocked bootloader, twrp recovery and rooted...if i am correct the steps are:
1. I´have already downloaded the update in the phone that prompted when i search for updates in the system.
2. I have to flash first the recovery from 901s...that says 4.4.2 or do i need other recovery for 4.3?
3. I should go to the recovery and it just updated?
4. flash twrp recovery and root again.
version 2:
1. Flash stock recovery.
2. Put the update in the external sd card and rename update
3. Update trough recoveryvand select the file in the sd?
4. flash twrp recovery and root again.
with the firmware version, i don´t understand the difference between instal only the firmware instead of the ota. what are the differences? and last. how can i do this with twrp and flash a zip?
Thanks in advance :good:

Query
Hi, I am still on Stock ROM but I have made following changes
current state
- Rooted (So shows Tampered)
- Flashed TWRP
- Removed some APK files from the build after rooting because I wanted to remove apps.
- Downloaded the new OTA update from the link.
Clarity on:
a) Can I use TWRP manager app to install the OTA update?
OR
b) Do I simply flash stock recovery to install update?
OR
c) Clean STOCK ROM Flash. Clean Stock Recovery Flash. Then flash OTA new Android 4.4.2 KK update?
Also, wanted to check if I can go ahead with - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50923456&postcount=12 directly using TWRP Recovery? :S
Never mind - figured that I need to be on complete stock to apply the OTA successfully. -_-

Thanks man. Appreciate it. I was just a little impatient. Flashed Zarboz's .zip and the phone is working. Cheers! :good:

Need some help guys. I think I screwed up the process .. now my phone will not start.
When I power on my phone, the HTC logo will appear. After that it will slowly dim and stretch to the entire screen. Then the phone will restart again with the HTC logo appearing and the same process repeats.
I tried to load the bootloader and now there are 2 lines.
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
:cyclops::cyclops:
Tried factory reset but the same process as above repeats itself. No way I can reset the phone.
Any advise is greatly appreciated.

Thanks daorderdillon. Forgive me as I am no expert on this. How can I reflash the ROM as I cannot even start the phone?
Appreciate if there are some simple guidance.

Thanks. Before that, I would like to share some info on my current situation.
On my phone, when I go into bootloader I can see the following:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
DLXP_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.55.0000
RADIO-4A.21.3263.14
OpenDSP-v32.120.274.0909
OS-2.18.707.2
eMMC-boot 2048MB
Nov 25 2013,14:00:10.0
I have downloaded this ROM -> OTA_DLXPLUS_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_hTC_Asia_HK_3.06.708.3-2.21.708.1_release_3558176bskc6u7eupsku7d on my SD card.
Since my phone is S-ON, I'm following the instructions on how to flash a rom.
At this step: Open the rom zip and extract the boot.img file to the adb folder, I am stuck. I opened the rom zip and I can't find any boot.img.
Did I missed something?
---------- Post added at 09:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 AM ----------
Also .. at this step I'm stuck.
Type "adb devices" (don't type the " " for this or the others)
It should show your phone's serial number, if not download HTC Sync Manager and install
When I typed adb devices, it shows "List of devices attached" but it's empty (nothing), even though my phone is on FASTBOOT USB and I have installed HTC Sync Manager.

I downloaded this file -> dlxpul_signed_stock_1.11.708.1_CL215607_release-keys and put the entire zip file into the ext SD card of my phone.
Went to recovery, and chose Apply from SD card. Then the following message appeared.
Device_CW_Install: No CW files. Skip cw installation.
Write host_mode: 0 done
Check cid failed!
-- Invalid operation. --
Write host_mode: 0 done
And the phone will reboot, HTC logo appears and dims stretching vertically from top to bottom and reboots again.
Perhaps my boot.img was corrupted. Where should I copy the boot.img from to replace it?

Damn u have to flash a custom Rom and try to get s off and super cid
