Flashing recovery thru terminal app - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can flash a recovery.img with no problem on 2.3, "flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img". But when using 2.2 I get "flash_image: not found". What has to be in the build to make that function work?

Update Fails

Why is it that everytime I try and run this system update ,when it reboots it just sits there at the black and white Samsung screen? And if I try and run it from CWM it says installation aborted,file update.zip not found. Any ideas? My phone is rooted but I'm not running any mod.

You can't install an OTA with clockworkmod. You're going to either have to ODIN EC05 or run the unrooting script.

Should I uninstall Clockwork? Or how do I get into the stock recovery?
You're better off ODINing EC05.

Where can I download it from and can I just install it in recovery because that will be the only way I can update it and thank you
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using XDA
you can go to koushs clockworkmod site and find it, its 5.0.2.0 currently unless youve want to use the touch recovery which is 5.8.1.6 then you can just toss it into a PG06IMG.zip file from another recovery like the twrp recovery and flash it through bootloader like you would a radio
Thank you so much I'm about to do it now

1.) you renamed the zip to PG06IMG.zip ?
2.) youre trying to flash through bootloader and not recovery?
I renamed the file that's showing but the cwm doesn't show and I'm using recovery

it has to be flashed through the bootloader, thats your problem.
reboot the phone hold power and volume down and go into the bootloader and let it install itself
So the cwm has to go through the bootloader

yes, you have to boot into the bootloader and select yes when it asks to install

Your card may need to be formatted to fat32 in order for the zip to be recognized. Do you have sdk set up on your pc? You could just flash through fastboot..

ok i have no idea what youre doing wrong because i just did it to my phone and it works fine.
go back into the bootloader, select bootloader, let it recognize the zip, select yes to install, push power to reboot when its finished

If your boot loader is already unlocked (which I guess it is unless you ran an RUU), skip to the step of flashing recovery through fastboot.

You are sure that you are eng s-off
Boot.img is your kernel not recovery
For flash recovery download https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=5&ved=0CDUQFjAE&url=https%3A%2F%2Fplay.google.com%2Fstore%2Fapps%2Fdetails%3Fid%3Dext.recovery.control%26hl%3Dnl%26referrer%3Dutm_source%253Dgoogle%2526utm_medium%253Dorganic%2526utm_term%253D4ext%2Brecovery&ei=sBZJUOShDKnS0QW8mIDICA&usg=AFQjCNGWV0EVMJGOfdmMccHpghgoHX4QoQ
Or adb command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
For enter recovery "adb reboot recovery"
Or take out the battery whait 20 sec.
Push the volume down button and the power button. You wil see a white screen thats your bootloader.
Than select recovery using volume button power button is enter.
Hey thx for ur reply iam not Soff but i was able to instaL clockword mode.
I want to instal custom rom
Do i need to be soff and rooted
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda app-developers app
I believe you can install a custom rom in this state. You will need to flash the rom in clockworkmod and then flash the boot.img from fastboot. Do a full system wipe incl dalvik cache from clockworkmod first. If you can't find boot.img in the root directory of the zip file it will be in the kernel folder.
Why not just s-off with AAHK first? If you are s-off it makes it a lot easier.
I need to make a downgrade. But ur right its better to root. Thxx

Can't update TWRP

I can't update twrp past 2.3 to flash KitKat if I flash via terminal I get error 1 and goomanager is just being weird.
Here's the catch though. I cant plug it into a PC as it won't read it. So I can't do fastboot or adb.

Well the best way to flash a recovery is with fastboot so I highly recommend to figure out your issue with PC not recognizing phone. Are you using windows or Linux?

Try Flashify. Download the recovery.img and flash it to the recovery partition.

Maybe this will help load the proper drivers for windows or rules for Linux, sorry I stay away from apple so can't help there.
Unless its a hardware issue it should be easy to fix.
Otherwise you will need to add the flash binary to your ROM to use terminal emulator, supposing the command you enter are correct

Its hardware related. I was told it was stuck in otg mode. Whatever that means.

Pushing twrp through adb?

Can someone give me a tut on pushing twrp to an d800 through adb?

Anybody? Not trying to be pushy but I can't get my phone to boot past recovery and if I had twrp I can get a terminal open and try a method someone pointed me to on how to fix my issue.
