hate to point out the obvious ACMobiusOne , but the post before yours by Willis states that he is useing a 35 rom and kernel. granted i believe that he is on OBB. but all Thrive users should still be on OBB. now im not sure about OC.
@Willis. CWM version should be 5.0.2.0, i think you are seeing the Rom Manager version. yet this dont make sence, cuz rom manager version should be 4.0.2.0 or higher maybe 5.0.0.4.
when i boot into recovery my version is 5.0.2.0
i see no need to have rom manager as most of the options can soft brick the phone, so i dont have a valid version to type.
other possibilities are you dont have CWM, but a diff recovery, maybe TWRP, or Aman-ra?
I do not have a rom manager.
I am using the custom CWM from this thread : xda-developers - View Single Post - [Source] LGP506 (AT&T LG Thrive GoPhone)
In the past when I had first downloaded the recovery from the market (when I was at stock p506 froyo), I would try to boot into recovery and only get a black screen. I believe that version at the time was 5.1.0.0 (about 3 week ago). When I flashed this custom p506 CWM through adb, I was then able to boot into recovery. When I think about it, now that I am running the p505 kernel, I would think I would be able to flash a newer compatible clockwork mod for the phone but that may be dangerous territory.
EDIT : I haven't found any more custom roms specific to the thrive anywhere else on the internet. The one (CWM) available from the market may only be for the p500 phone as well as the phoenix. There were a few threads on xda that stated some where having the same problem booting into CWM on the thrive (until they created this custom version).
ex. http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1120671.html
Just wondering if anyone knows anything about this, or is using a newer one successfully here.
