Ok so awhile back I downloaded and installed a leaked 2.2 version for the epic and its been ok just tired of it, but now when trying to go to a different rom nothing works, clockwork has always givin me some issues on this phone an on m old one that got replaced for bad proximity sensors.
What am I doing wrong? I tried the rom manager method of getting clockwork's mod to work but nothing, tried re flashing the recovory image and that failed for some read only issue now that I've never seen before and is clockworks mod supposed to stick cause the one time I got it to work so I could install this rom (which sucks) after I was it never worked again? This is just really annoying for me since I never have had issues in the past with rom installed htc was easier the g1 and hero where do damn easy what is with this epic crap not doing what I want it to do?

Have you tried the one click method for root and clockwork? You need to have the samsung drivers installed and you have to get another usb cable. The one that comes with the epic is only good for charging.

Yea I've tried that and sometimes it works andsometimes it fails, last night I was failing saying "read-only file system" and would not finish the img flash.

It is very easy to install ROM's on the Epic... So i'm thinking you're doing something wrong.
Are you sure you have clockwork installed and NOT stock? Back when I first started working with the Epic (Rooting & Flashing) I had problems figuring out what clockwork really was.. Clockwork is GREEN & Stock is BLUE.
Also another thing I did was unrooted and then rooted using the latest One Click Root W/ Clockwork, after that everything seemed to work fine. IF I am correct, the ROM Manager Clockwork does not work for the Epic? Well at least it never worked for mine.

Try going to adb and type this: adb shell. Once the shell pops up enter "su" and then this command: mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
If you get an error, you aren't rooted.
Or alternatively, adb shell mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system

Lol kk so this should work then ill try when I get home.
Is clockwork suppsed to stick though? So that ny time I boot into recovery it should be there, that's wat I thought should happen with changing the recovery image but it never stuck and won't load.
If that command doesn't change anything ill take a video and show what happpens when trying to chage the rom's, I can't be the only person having the problem.....
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
tried that command say's premissions denied?? I have super users permissions and have a custom rom wtf is going on here? this just does not make sense to me any more at all, tried to run the root file again on the phone and that failed saying its a read only file system?
also tried to run a "unroot.batch" file and same issue says that its a read only file system??

Does the su command work? If not then agan, you aren't rooted. You will know because the $ sign will change to #. Try running the one click root method again, specifically the 2.5 version that contains root and cwm. I don't understand how you can't be rooted though with a custom ROM. Somehow something isn't working, maybe the mount script is corrupt but who knows. I suggest odin back to stock DK28 and root and cwm from there with the newest one-click. Let me know if that helps, also feel free to pm me if you need specifics

yes that command works
i just took a bunch of screen shots ill upload them in a second!

Try re-downloading the 2.5.5 one click root. May have modified a file accidentally or something. Also; if you're on a desktop.. plug the cord into the back not the front panel of the pc.
The stock cables do work for data.. unless it got damaged somehow.

No the stock cable should work for data but usually doesn't. 99% of people who have been having issues rooting, their problem has been the stock cable. It is crap.

It gives you temp root on the Legend, doubt it will give permaroot, but I'll try that in a bit and report back. (r11 wasn't recognised by my phone as a valid APK).
Just tried it on mine,gives only temporary root.
Yeah it won't permaroot because of the NAND lock, I was just being optimistic
Temproot on reboot is enough for me as I like Sense.
I hope this will work with official Froyo! I don't need root all the time, just for some modification like editing wpa_supplicant.conf. Awesome!!
I just tried it yesterday and permaroot worked just fine for me. I rebooted the phone several times to make sure and superuser is still there and I have root access with my file manager.
But I used VISIONary r13, maybe that made the difference? r11 didn't work on my phone either.

I only ask as your sig says you are using a Desire.
I've used r13 (available on page 7) and don't get permaroot.

Nope on my legend, I have both phones. I'm using the desire right now because I'm still looking for a way to flash a custom recovery on the legend now that its rooted.
I used r13 and did a temproot first then used permaroot while still in temproot. Maybe that did the trick? Also my legend is unbranded and unlocked. I can post the HBOOT and Radio versions too if you want.

I shut it down and put my watch next to it while was booting so you can see I didn't have time to re-root.

Jay , i'm just as far as you are at the moment. The question u asked is exactly the same question you asked at paul's thread. I was just refering to what i did after following the post previously to your question on paul's thread.
And the "what do you mean perform clockwork recovery in rom manager" question i mainly flashed clockwork recovery onto the legend.
Lets wait for Falcon to post his vids im really curious if he really got perm.
or just clicked the temp root on boot option etc.
ah right, got ya! I might flash the unbranded ROM (also so when the OEM FroYo is released I get it sooner than the Vodafone bastardised version) and try again... just going to be a PITA installing all my apps and setting my phone up as I like it lol
gah you guys jinxed my phone :[
i don't have market on my Legend so it took a while to get terminal emulator and Rom manager and have them installed. neither of them worked. i guess its back to square one for me.
and yes i was using the stock shipped Rom that came with the phone, software number 1.27.466.5
i'm gonna uninstall VISIONary and Superuser and try again
Any update guys? is the permanent One click root on Legend available by any methods?

could we possibly share clockworkmod backup images if we used same system and same clockworkmod serial? maybe a image database with all workable clockworkmod recoveries? is this just incompatible or could it be done if both had same system ie cyanmod 7 2.2.3 and clockwork mod say for eg 3.0.0.5? noob dream?....!!!

Hi the ROM has nothing to do about it maybe i think could be a problem with the clockwork mode version but everybody should have it updated.
There is a file with .Md5 extension that is in charge of the only 1 validation of the original file(.img files), if any of these files has been corrupted then the validation will fail.
MD5 data is created by a algorithm that examines the original file and creates a short(-ish) checksum data string out of the original file's characteristics​
And the validation of what im saying is that we can go back to past ROMS with any problem
Greetings!

I dunno. It might work. But as I said before, I have found that you need to use Tenfar's ClockWork Mod Recovery to flash this. I tried it with the one that comes with ROM Manager, and it didn't work. If you are going to try to wipe with fastboot, also try putting tenfar's CWM on, and then re-flash.

I've been waiting for this new recovery to come out ever since I got my Kindle Fire(we're a bit limited with only 1 physical button). This was just released a few minutes ago, but it's been in development for a year or so.
I have no affiliation with the team, but I thought others would be interested in trying this out. Luckily, the Atrix was included in the initial wave of supported devices. More pics below.
Video of it in action on a tablet. It really shows the potential for an XML-based recovery. Could mean some very nice ROM installs among other things.
TWRP 2.0 for Motorola Atrix 4G
TWRP 2.0 General Info
Themers, keep your eye on this page. Atrix is not listed, yet.
Install instructions with fastboot:
1. Place twrp-olympus-2.0.0RC0.img in fastboot folder.
2. Open command prompt and cd to directory from step 1
3. Put phone in fastboot mode and connect to computer.
4. fastboot devices
5. fastboot erase recovery
6. fastboot flash recovery twrp-olympus-2.0.0RC0.img
7. fastboot reboot
Note to CM7 users: It doesn't look like the internal storage naming (/emmc) used by CM7 is supported yet, so you will be limited to just using /sdcard.
*Edit*
Looks like there's an official thread over in development now.

Sorry, I wasn't sure if I should post it there since I wasn't the one to develop it. Mods, please feel free to move. Thanks.
Just flashed to my CM7 atrix, and tried flashing a .zip (radio update) and seemed to work just fine! Touchscreen recovery, the way it should be!
Just flashed it to mine, and I have to say its quite impressive. Methinks my volume buttons are going to see a lot less wear on them now.
Only issue is that it doesnt look like you can backup/restore your PDS partition, but thats not something you need to mess with often so you could probably just flash another recovery temporarily if needed.

I'm jealous! I can't flash it yet cuz I'm not at home.
The development has been pretty quick on this. I'm sure if it's not in there currently, it will be at some point.
I flashed it but couldn't install anything it gave me errors saying it couldn't read the SD cards and I couldn't see any of my files.

What ROM are you on currently? I'm on CM7 so I'm wondering if sdcard naming might be an issue for non-blur roms. I just wanted to prepare myself for possible issues once I get it flashed.

I'm on cm7 as well. I'm thinking the problem lies in the previous recovery image I had, I was using cwm prior to flashing this. Wonder if I wiped recovery in fastboot prior to flashing the new recovery if that'd fix it.

I am using CM7 Weekly 3, and i switched from RomRacers recovery. I used the fastboot erase recovery prior to flashing this, and it doesnt seem to have any problems in the limited testing I have done with it. In the log at the bottom of the screen it says error mounting sd-ext but it is able to flash .zip files from it, so...
Will try again tomorrow. I gotta hit the sack. Amazing job tho by the devs on this. Truly revolutionary work. Night all.

Is it at all possible to make it into a flashable zip? I won't be at a PC that can fast boot for some time.

Ok, this is the first CWM zip I've ever tried putting together so please let me know if you have any problems. I took an existing .zip and edited the updater script. I just tried it coming from romracer's CWM, and it worked for me.
If it works for others I will add it to the OP. Happy flashing!
*Edit*
Btw, when using TWRP I tried to reboot into bootloader but it seemed to put me in fastboot mode. Just wanted to put that out there in case others get stuck on "Unlocked" screen.
I can't get this to work so frustrating. I flash with fastboot, it boots into recovery. Its a great touch screen interface. But there are no files populating. I can click the bottom middle button and see a bunch or errors about being able to mount my SD card and such. What step am I missing here.

So when you tap on "Install" it doesn't take you to the root of your external sdcard? For me, that is the only directory I have access to at the moment since I'm on CM7. All of the actions are defaulting to /sdcard.
What boxes are checked for you when you go into "Mount"? I was unable to check sdcard-ext from there, but everything else was selectable.

no it should not
Only boxes checked for mount are cache. I can't mount sd card or anything else. When I click install it takes me to the main / root folder. I can go to whatever folder I want but nothing shows up.

Hi all, as far as the ROM threads are clearly marked for a u8800-51 the threads are OK in this section. Now back on topic please.
Looks great! I'm about to try. Thank you!

How is it?

I've tried to install this ROM many times and failed it seems. I've backed everything up (just in case it didn't work), ran a factory reset, wiped battery stats dalvik cache and formatted /system, then proceeded to install this. I used the CWM you stated in the post and tried a few other versions. Phone is just stuck on the boot screen, and keeps resetting. =/

Sent from my U8800-51 using xda premium
The AT&T Impulse 4G (u8800-51). I did however, get the CM7 mod to work after installing on top of this rom. Only issue is I cannot seem to add my google account to it, and the cyanogenmod settings in the settings menu does not work (force close).
I never tested cm. Go back to 2.2 and flash this one

I'll try it again, but how long should I wait during the boot screen resetting? I waited almost an hour the last few times I tried to install.

Try the original workaround. This is an older version than this ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1698308
When I try to restore my IMEI, 5irom says there's no backup. Imeibackup folder is there and there are two files, 10 and 11.
