***update***
Works great as a daily driver now. Everything works fine and very quick.

Everyone should definitely check this out, a combo of AOSP and Cyanogen (GB2.3).
There are many workarounds to get up and running, so the good folks at XDA have written in their posts.

I tried it and loved it. but I need the camera so back to aospmods froyo. Try downloading it again, flash the new clockwork and wipe every thing.

It's definitely a good ROM. Using it daily right now. Just like Flipfone said, make sure you wipe everything before flash (boot, system, dalvik, factory reset).

My question is how do I flash the new clockmod 3.0 with the img file? My Clockwork is 2.5.

Download the file and place it on the SD Card. You will need to download Terminal Emulator from the market to use commands and push the recovery to the phone from the SD Card. Assuming the name of the recovery file is the same as the link posted in the first post:

su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-clockwork-3.0.0.5-heroc-20110122-192636.img
reboot recovery

You should see the SU Permissions when you enter the SU command, accept it. The phone will reboot into recovery and you'll be good to go.

**Edit**
Camera now works in the latest release, you should update the thread title so others know

The Terminal is saying flash_image: not found. Tried numerous other workarounds only to get endless bootlooping.

 

[srkmagnus]

When you downloaded the file did it download as a .img or .txt? Because I just tried to download it twice and it came up as a ~3mb .txt file.

Make sure the name of the recovery is the same as the input path in terminal.

 

[chefkeyser]

.img

 

[srkmagnus]

Must be a Mac thing lol

Double check that the file is on the root of the sdcard and double that the file name is the same as the input in terminal. sometimes a "." or "-" may be missing and it won't flash.

If you can't get it into recovery, boot back up and download the old recovery from ROM Manager to get back up an running.

It looks like other people are having a problem flashing the new recovery. Someone got it to flash via fastboot - xda-developers - View Single Post - [ROM][GPL][SEXY][WIP] aospCMod | AOSP 2.3.2 (Gingerbread) [01/23/2011]

I'm not familiar with that method. So read up on it if you decide to give it a try

First thing run this command

ls /system/bin

if "flash_image " is there try running this command

chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image

Then run

su

cd /sdcard

flash_image recovery recovery-clockwork-3.0.0.5-heroc-20110122-192636.img

reboot recovery

If it fails when you do the chmod on the /system/bin/flash_image post back,Ill post a new flash_image file and everything needed to get things going.It's either the file isn't there or the permissions are not set right.

Do I need to hit enter after every line?

Flash image isn't in the system bin list.

if you use ROM manager you can flash it that way too. method 2 here ==>> Flash the ClockworkMod Recovery - ROMRepo

 

[chefkeyser]

That way initially caused a few boot loops. So both images should be in the same folder and one should just have a xxx placeholder?

Ok, here is what I did, as it seems my only option.
1. Downloaded 3.0.0.5 to sdcard.
2. Renamed old 2.5.0.1 image to xxx.img
3. Renamed 3.0.0.5 image to 2.5.0.1-heroc.img
4. Flashed Latest Clockwork from ROM Manager
5. Rebooted into recovery
6. Phone rebooted, no recovery

 

[flipfone]

Flash again, then power off the phone. Then try restarting into recovery?

 

[chefkeyser]

Ok, a couple of restarts, I got the orange lettering. Sweet.

 

[chefkeyser]

Now the HTC screen again. Hmm...
It worked once, so I tried rebooting again, and it's the HTC screen once more. It seems like it works sometimes.

 

[flipfone]

are you using the firerat mod?
