It's on his website and apparently in RM now?

You still use a non touch recovery? Shame on you
Is there any good reason not to use the ROM Manager app on my phone to install it? Coming from 5.5.0.4, I mean?
haha, i like making my life difficult... i remember seeing some ppl having issues flashing with CWRT, especially the early JB ports... so i never got around to it
so yeah, im still confused - when i reboot system out of recovery now it asks if ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. fix? as mentioned before.... but when i hit "Go Back" it reboots.... weird
link to the CWRT fastboot file?
Fastboot is how the pro's do it, you want to be a pro dontcha?
Weird, as I've said I much prefer TWRP. Their new version from last week or so, 2.2.0 I believe, is great. I can't go back to CWR.

What's fastboot?
Sent From My Brain To Yours
Fastboot is how your computer talks to your phone when it's in bootloader mode. You can use fastboot to push and write recoveries, kernels, and do an entire system restore using the factory images, among other things. It's the same way we use adb to talk to the phone when it's booted up so can enter commands from the computer. Adb is to android as fastboot is to bootloader.
Or were you asking just to see how much it would irritate me? (answer: a little) jk

Lol I would have to know you better to irritate you. Thank you for that explanation though Now I gotta ask why use fastboot when it's quicker to use your phone all ready to flash it?

just flashed CWRtouch... why didnt i do this before!!
question... when i go into Rom Manager, it still says that Current Recovery is ClockworkMod 6.0.0.5, ClockworkMod Touch is available... but i already have touch..
Make sure in ROM manager that you hit flash touch cwm at the bottom. Once you do, it will update accordingly and will be installed. ROM manager will say cwm, because it still is cwm, but as long as you don't hit flash CWM at the top of the page, it will stay in touch.

See... that's more confusing than just fastbooting it.
Listen to 2def peeps, he's an advisor... allow the advice, lol
Fastbooting is definitely easier. You can even just ctrl+shft+right click to open a command window from platform tools where your fastboot.exe is, and as long as you have your recovery you want to flash in there too, you just type fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.0.5-toro.img
The end. Reboot into your new recovery.
You don't have to setup path variables or anything. Try it, you'll like it. I'd rather donate the $1.99 than pay RM to flash it for me.
Not directed at you 7, just took the opportunity for a general comment because I'm slightly drunk

No worries, Oxy. I've used both methods and was simply guiding using a typically consistent and mobile way. If one isn't near a computer, ROM manager works 99% of the time.
I agree, though; fastboot is good to know for general and safe practice!
