that didnt help..
you obviously didnt search hard enough as its listed under EVERY release thread for amons ra recovery
but ill post here for you anyways since im a nice guy
via terminal on phone (must have root)
Code:
Copy name_of_recovery.img to the root of your sdcard
start the terminal app
$su (not required if you have root already)
#mount -a
#flash_image recovery /sdcard/name_of_recovery.img
also you can partition your sd card via your pc, mac or linux box.. you do not need ra recovery to do that..

ok.. i've tried that with about 4 diff recovery images.. when i type su and hit enter, it should ask for superuser permissions, right? well, it opens a new window that says superuser request in the corner (where the name of the app is), but it's a blanks screen.. i cant allow the superuser permissions if it wont give me the option to do so..
update: i tried it without the su.. i did the
#mount -a
#flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-dream-v1.5.2.img
but all i got was a dollar sign.. i rebooted into recovery, and i'm still stuck on cyanogen 1.4 recovery..
You need SU. It gives you Root Access. You need Root Access.
ok.. when i open the superuser permissions app, i get nothing.. just the app name right under the notification bar..
update: now i have SU (the problem was with the ROM i was running..), but when i try to flash the recovery image, i get:
error reading /sdcard/recovery-RA-dream-v1.6.2.img header: I/O error
help!!
update 2: SUCCESS!! the problem was that i had other files on my sd card.. i'm such a nOOb.. thanks to everyone that helped..

hi all. I already Unlock the Bootloader, I flash the Amon Ra 1.5.3, it works. I made the Nandroid backup, then after reboot it doesn't work. is going to original recovery (see triangle with exclamation mark in the middle). what can I do? I was trying several times but same results. Amon Ra recovery is working only until reboot... What I have done wrong? thanks in advance
You have to flash a ROM after flashing the Recovery for the Recovery to stick, if the same principle from the G1 transfers over to the N1... ie, flash Recovery, boot into it, flash a ROM, you are good to go.
I mean. it will not remain if I will not flash a custom rom?
Are you flashing from sd or fastboot?
from fast boot. i was following the steps from http://androidcommunity.com/forums/...ing-amon-ras-recovery-on-the-nexus-one-30499/.
A nandroid backup does not have the proper permissions/formatting for your system to boot.
You need to nandroid
then fastboot flash boot boot.img, etc
DELETE......
wow way for them to steal my outdated tutorial..... bastards

Have you already flashed (through OTA or manually) the last update released by google? If yes you need to delete (you must be root for this) the install-recovery.sh you find in /system/etc:
Code:
adb shell
cd system
cd etc
rm install-recovery.sh
By deleting this file I solved this problem of having to reflash the recovery after each rom reboot
ok. so, finally, someone can post one link or a explicit tutorial about how to install this recovery? at least one link would be good enough.. ... thanks

easist recovery can be tricky
do u have SDK?
Yes, I have.... usualy I go in recoveryy mode from "ADB reboot booloader recovery"..
Think i should write a recovery flashing tutorial?
So as many of you are now finding out is that clockwork is borked and so is root with the new update. The root method on cyanogenmod wont work. The rootboot.img breaks wifi and you still cannot get into clockwork recovery ... well at least I can't. Anyone else seeing this and possibly have a solution?

ya the OTA breaks root and CWM,,,thats why in roms the ability to OTA is removed
Reflash koush's clockwork recovery via fastboot.
After the successful flash, you can get into CWM recovery by selecting Recovery while still in fastboot.
Once in CWM, go to mount options menu and mount /system.
Then use adb shell to navigate to /system/bin.
Once in /system/bin type chmod 6775 su
Root functionality should now be restored when you're in normal boot mode.
Getting permanent CWM recovery back is proving more problematic for me. Once you reboot the phone after that first install, selecting Recovery gives you the Android and "!" screen. Battery pull required.
You can however, get back into CWM recovery by either fastboot flashing the image again as above, or from the ROM Manager app where you flash the recovery and then select boot into recovery.
Pain in the butt, but not totally lost.
Just a minor issue that comes from running custom recoveries and roms. Koush already is working on a flashable update that will work with CWR. Just gotta be patient. Chances are that if you have been keeping up with the tweaks and new apk's in the dev forum, this update won't really mean that much anyway. I am a sucker for wanting the latest version number in my "about phone" though

Hello,
I am currently running Rom Manager 3.0.1.0 with ClockworkMod Recovery version 3.0.0.6. I'm trying to install GorillaSense DHD-MT4G Revolution theme on my phone but, I can't seem to install the update due to the ClockworkMod version. I need to downgrade to 2.5.1.2. When I do this through the Rom Manager it states that I have successfully flashed ClockworkMod Recovery but when I reboot into recovery, it doesn't load.
The versions available to me is 3.0.0.6 and 2.5.1.4. Is there any way I can get access to 2.5.1.2 again?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Well if you have Rom Manager 3.0.1.0 then yes you can flash Recovery 2.5.1.2 by going to Rom Manager and go down to the last option "All clockworkmod recoveries". Find 2.5.1.2 from the list and it will flash it for you.
Thank you for your quick reply. My problem lies in the fact that Rom Manager states that I have successfully flashed 2.5.1.2 but when I try load boot into recovery the recovery does not load.

Well in that case manually flash it via terminal. Just put the 2.5.1.2 recovery.img in SDCard and flash it.

You will need flash_recovery file which you can find by using search function along with 2.5.1.2.img this meth works as I did it always.
EDIT: Sorry if you can't find it but here is the atth as I keep backup of almost everything on mSD.BkP so download it and unzip them in root of your /sdcard so you will have standalone flash_recovery and recovery.img in it.
Thanks for all your help. That worked perfectly.

Had a similar issue and followed your directions above in terminal. After I enter in the last line and hit enter, is it supposed to show something going on because it just goes to the next line. I downloaded your attached clockwork file and put it on the root of my SD card. Thanks for any help.

I don't quite remember what happens after you enter the last command on the terminal but, the only command I entered when I downloaded the files and extracted it to the root was "su[enter]
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img[enter]"
After that I was able to boot into recovery.
Another option is deleting the copy of the recovery in your SD card and redownloading it with ROM Manager. Just go to: /sdcard/clockworkmod/download/mirror1.kanged.net/recoveries. Delete recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.2-glacier.img, redownload and try loading it with Rom Manager again.
Hopes this helps.
So about 2 months ago I rooted my phone. I followed the method here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928160
Everything was ok, until my super user permissions program stopped working. The program opened but its a solid black screen and I cannot give any new program SU permission. At first the programs that already had permission could still have SU permission, but, in an attempt to fix the issue I cleared the program cache and those programs lost their SU permission(like TT and terminal).
Their is a new SU permissions program on the market that I paid for from the same company but I assume because the old one is still installed that it is not showing up for that reason and cannot be opened.
I cannot figure out how to get rid of the original Superuser Permissions program. I have tried every program I could find by surfing forums, I have factory reset the phone... but that SU permissiosn program is still there upon a clean factory reset!
I have the ADB installed on my PC, but when I try to run a remount I get an error that I am not allowed to do that. After my factory reset I tried running back through the walkthrough I listed. Visionary says its temp rooted, but in terminal the SU command says "access denied." I think this all has to do with that bad SU program being in stalled and if I can get that off and install the replacement one I paid for, then the SU could grant access to terminal and I could re-root the phone.
My theory is only speculation. Can anyone tell me how to remove this SU program. Its located in directories that are read only and all the commands I have found to remove it so far have required a rooted terminal command, or ADB remount commands that I cannot use. Please help. Thanks
Couple of things to try. First can you boot into recovery? What Rom are you using if any? Since you already did a factory reset I assume you don't have any data you want to save so I would just reflash a Rom from recovery. I don't remember off the top of my head but I think you hold vol - plus power when booting to get to recovery? Or if your current Rom has the permissions still to boot to recovery from the power menu?
Another thing to try is the "rage" method to gain root. I know there are issues with using visionary after you already have root. So give rage a search and try that. Come to think of it you might just try the rage method first. Let me know how its goin I might be able to help more

Thanks for the reply!!
Nothing has worked. The original superuser permissions is still installed. I get errors when trying to push files to those read only directories even though ADB.
Any ideas on how I can get everything back to factory settings?
What do you mean "a new SU permissions program that I paid for"?
There's only one SU program that I know of. The only paid one that I know of is just a license file for an upcoming, yet to be released, program. You'll need to be specific in order for this to get resolved but it sounds like you may need to reinstall the SU binaries and the SU program.
To uninstall the current one you just need to go to applications>manage, click on the program and then click uninstall. Then use ROM manager to download and install SU for you.
Thanks for the reply but I am way past that. The OS will not let me uninstall the current SU program. The "paid" SU program is a separate program because it asked me to install the file rather than "update" like the free one says when I open it from the market.
I am very specific in my original post.
Somehow the SU program stopped working. New programs that require SU access were not givign the pop up that allowed me to grant SU access. When I open SU its just a black screen with no options. I cleared the cache to try to fix and this removed SU permissions from all the programs that I had already granted SU permissions to(like terminal). I cannot uninstall the program from the built in manager or any of the several file managers I have tried. I also cannot overwrite the current file by "updating" the existing installed version. I paid the 1$ for the paid version because its a different program all together. My thought process was if android sees it as a separate program, it will install it as a separate program and I can use it independantly of the original non-functioning version. That did not work. It says its installed but the icon is no where to be found and I cannot run it, even from a file manager. The old SU icon(of a ninja) still stays in the program list even after I wiped the phone and dida factory reset.
The point is its going to take some advanced procedure to remove the SU program. Its in adirectory that is read only. It takes SU permissions to make that directory read/write and I cant get SU permissions, even temporarily with visionary or Z7. I have tried ADB and it also says permission denied.
So this is NOT resolved yet.
At this point:
-I have reset the phone several times, each time SUpermissions is still installed when the phone comes back up.
-USB debugging is enabled.
-I have googled possible solutions that all have not worked(using ADB failed, updating the SU program failed, clearing the cahce failed, disabling usb debugging then hooking to cpu and reenabling it and using adb to try and use SU command failed...etc
-using 3rd party apps to uninstall failed
-using other SU apps failed
A rough rundown of my problem is:
Phone is rooted. At some point when I opened a NEW app that would require SU access, the pop up generalted by SUpermissions stopped popping up allowing me to give access. Programs I had already granted SU access to would still work(like terminal and titanium backup). Per someones request I tried to clear the cache. When I did this all the programs that DID have SU access lost SU access and I still could not add new programs to the SU list. I have tried ADB commands, file managers, factor resetting the phone. Nothing works. The SUpermissions program is there when I factory reset the phone as if it is one of the preinstalled apps. Apps tell me that I DO have my phone rooted, but that I still need to allow it SU access. I have not been able to uninstall the SU program and if I could get that program updated/re-installed then I believe that I could get the root access back.
Any real suggestions?(not the "is usb debugging enabled" Tier I troubleshooting steps that I am WAY past)
Thank in advance
Kk do you have s-off and the eng-bootloader? Do you have a custom recovery?
If you have s-off and custome recovery you can back up your rom using nandroid, then do a wipe and install a freshly new rom
Also you can boot into clockwork and try to run fix permissons
If you don't have custome recovery (clock work) you will need to have eng-bootloader to do fastboot commands to flash recovery
Also have for adb make sure debuggin is on and boot into bootloader from there try to do adb commands there
If your able to do so and get access
You can go into adb shell and remount to rw then push a new SU.apk in and reboot and su should work as well
This if you don't remember commands
Adb shell
Su
#mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
#
Then exit out of shell then do adb push
Adb push (where ever su user location on pc) /system/app
I installed rom manager by clockworkmod, which I believe is the program you were refering too.
I tried to "fix permissions" and it failed there.
How would I reload the stock ROM?
If I backup the current ROM, and reload it, then it will reload it as it is with SUpermissions already installed.
Where can I find a copy of the stock rom that came on the G2?
BTW
I do have S-off, but I did not install the engineering hboot.
Let me know the best way to go about getting a stock rom put back on.
Do you have clockwork recovery, not rom manager, turn off phone hold vol dwn and power.. you should boot in custome recovery all letters should be orange,
If you have that good! Jus go to dev section and download a stock rom that is rooted put in sdcard and boot in cwm recovery go to back up and restore, do a back up after back up is down do a wip/factory reset, when down click install zip from sdcard, then choose zip from sdcard and look for rom that is in sdcard and flash that.. or you want you could also get cyanogenrom too but also get gapps too
You never answered if you could get to recovery. If you really have soff then your fine. So when your phone boots it says s off correct? And what happens with you hold vol down while booting? Even if you dont have clockwork recovery you can still install the original rom which you can find in the forums.

I assume that its s-off. The link that I posted the the root method that I used said that it would root with S-off. The only thing I did not do is install the eng hboot. I assume that the root is done with S-off.
I have not had time to sit and try this yet. I will try soon and get back with my results.

I know at one point I had it, but as I said I factory reset my phone. I want to make sure that I install the correct app, so who manufacturers clockwork?
If you had the cwm recovery b4 and all you did was a factory reset then you should still have it, only time you lose recovery if you update to official rom or you flashed another recovery, clockwork recovery is made my koush, and rom manager is also made by koush

Try flashing another ROM or a kernel. this could be an error or corruption in the folder located in the root folder of your phone. Flash a new ROM and try it again but set a backup and see if this error continued to another ROM. Hope I helped

Ok... maybe I was mistaken. When I boot into recovery, it says S-off, and the options I have to choose from are orange, but ALL the text is not orange.
When I go through ROM manager to flash a ROM(which is the stock rom i downloaded that I want to flash) it says I need to have CWR installed and to use the option at the top to install it. When I click that it says its asking for permissions to install, which means I need SU permissions, which is my problem in the first place.
I have the rom loaded on my SD. As I said, the 4 options I have in the initial recovery mode are orange(though the rest of the text is now orange) but I do not know which one to choose. Any advice? Do I have clockwork recovery installed? If not, is their any way to flash a ROM?

Sounds like a bad download. Hard to say without more info though.

If your recovery image is corrupt, you don't have to un-root an re-root again. Just download a new copy from here and flash it via terminal emulator.
I'll post instructions for anyone wondering how to flash via terminal.
First rename the downloaded file to "recovery.img", then follow this:
Code:
Copy recovery.img to the root of your sdcard
start the terminal app
su(press enter)
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img(press enter)
reboot recovery(press enter)

that could work if the phone booted up, but as of right now it doesn't boot and it won't since I had just wiped the phone when clockwork started acting up with the "can't mount /cache" errors. thanks for the suggestion though.
I was pretty desperate to get my phone working again so I jus dl PD15IMG.zip put it on the root of my SD card n went into hboot n let the phone do the rest. Back to stock byt hey I'm phone is working again

you lucky dog.... Mine does not want to restore with PD15IMG.zip, it fails on items 1-6, skips one more and freezes at updating the radio. Even tried with a freshly formatted sdcard.
