Clockwork Recovery update

**igotsanevo4g** · 12-29-2010, 09:21 PM

Thats right, fire up rom manager and it should prompt you to update to v2.5.1.2
So far i notice a few subtle differences in the menus, and its a little faster wiping/navigating.
Im not sure, but hopefully this adds support for the newer Hboots, and newer hardware versions.

Enjoy!

Edit-another update has been pushed, v3.0.0.0
Its orange.

Hey I gots, I actually just put this in a PC36IMG.zip in another thread for someone who had trouble updating. May be helpful here:

clockwork recovery v2.5.0.1 *Compatible with early hboots
clockwork recovery v3.0.0.0 *Newest version for hboot 2.10

--
To install, copy the PC36IMG.zip file to your sd card. Power down your phone, press the volume down button and power button at the same time, release your fingers only when the white screen turns on. If your phone is in bootloader it will pause for a second, read the file and ask if you want to update, press yes. If your phone boots to fastboot, select bootloader and hit yes to update after it scans the file.

You can also install any version of clockworkmod recovery through Rom Manager (I put these here because some folks here - me included - and over at XDA had some problems restoring with the new version of clockwork on old hboots).

I also tweeted @koush and asked about the partition updates, I'll update this post when/if he replies.

Mine came up and didnt do anything. Now wont let me even switch to clockwork from Amon Ra.

**PreGk** · 12-30-2010, 07:22 AM

Clockwork never works on my phone, doesn't clear dalvik, flashing roms causes bootloops... I have to use AR

I installed that PCIMG file listed and same deal. Clockwork wont flash still.
Ideas?

**VDub2174** · 12-30-2010, 08:02 AM

I used to live by ClockWork but everyone over at XDA said to use AmonRa Recovery. I check ROM manager and it was already updated for me. I think I set it for auto update.

**japclev** · 12-30-2010, 08:28 AM

Updated through Rom Manager and reboots got stuck in bootloader. Thanks to the PC.zip by thefredelement, flashed that and all is updated and working.

Still green.

**PM-Performance** · 12-30-2010, 08:33 AM

I use Clockwork for my backups because I can name them. I use Amon for everything else.
When I do NAND from Amon though I cant seem to name my recoveries so I dont use it.

Do you run that zip through recovery like a normal rom? Or do you install in some other fashion and neeed to rename?

EDIT: I ran through fastboot and didnt fix it. (unless I need to rename the file or something)

**japclev** · 12-30-2010, 09:01 AM

Just stuck the PC.zip file on SD card and rebooted into recovery and let it update on its own. Didn't rename. Sucks it's not working for some.

**PM-Performance** · 12-30-2010, 09:14 AM

weird because that is the first way I tried it and still erring on flashing clockword.
Obviously going back and doing a restore from my last restore will not put it back to prior working order will it?

**japclev** · 12-30-2010, 09:21 AM

When mine wasn't working, I was contemplating a restore and retrying to reflash...doubt if nandroid covers the actual recovery method though..I even tried flashing alternate clockword from ROM Mgr. and that didn't work for me either..maybe Rom related, could install alternate Rom, then try to update...then go back to good Rom...if it's possible...

EDIT: see 3.0.0.0 in Rom Manager...maybe fixed.

EDITEDIT: Flashed 3.0.0.0 from Rom Manager and it worked right away...and it's orange...version number definitely issue there.

**VDub2174** · 12-30-2010, 09:39 AM

Mine shows as version 3.0.0.2

Oops, Clockwork shows as 3.0.0.0 my bad

**PM-Performance** · 12-30-2010, 09:40 AM

see I can do alternate recovery fine. its just getting any of the CW versions to flash now that is giving me the error.

**PM-Performance** · 12-30-2010, 09:58 AM

interesting enuff. . . . .
When I boot to recovery it allows me to boot to clockwork recovery instead of Amon now. However when I try to flash recovery in Rom manager it gives me the error.

Maybe a Rom Manager problem?

Agree.

**guruffl** · 12-30-2010, 01:02 PM

I uninstalled rom manager and reinstalled rom manager and now from rom manager I can initiate a back up or a restore. Before this I was getting a bott loader loop. Also if I initiated a "reboot into recovery" from rom manager it would get to recovery, but on the way there I would see an awful screen of color looking like an original Nintendo game that froze up.

**japclev** · 12-30-2010, 03:14 PM

Arghhh! I uninstalled ROM MGR and reinstalled. Saw the new 3.0.0.1 and flashed through Rom Mgr. Stuck in bootloader again. So went back and flashed PC.zip file back to good 2.? version, updated to 3.0.0.0, which works in Rom Mgr. When I reboot from the Orange recovery in 3.0.0.0 I get the crazy color screen as well, but it does reboot.

**truslide** · 12-30-2010, 03:24 PM

guess i'll stick to the current version for now...

**gojira5150** · 12-30-2010, 03:55 PM

I am having an issue as well. I used Unrevoked 3 to Root (which installed Clockwork. I updated Clockwork thru ROM Manager today to 3.0.0.1. When I boot into Recovery thru ROM Manager it still says 2.5.0.1. I have rebooted the EVO an few times and that does not help. In ROM Manager it says the version is 3.0.0.1. I uninstalled and reinstalled and still the same issue. Does anyone know what the issue could be. My recovery screen is still green. Thnaks

**igotsanevo4g** · 12-30-2010, 04:30 PM

Don't use freds p36 zip anymore, its been updated after that, I have the 3.0 version and it works fine. Update through rom manager.

Clockworkmod DOES wipe dalvik.

The only thing amon does that clockworkmod can't is it backs up your wimax partition, so I always keep 1 nandroid from among ra just in case I mess up my 4g.

Clockworkmod works fine.
