i used true blues method for getting cmr 3.0.0.6. it worked wonderfully. when i would boot into recovery using volume down and power it would say 3.0.0.6 at the top. i switched to 2.5.1.2 to flash icons. when i went back to 3.0.0.5 in rom manager, it now says 3.0.0.5 when i boot up with volume down and power. i tried reflashing the zip for 3.0.0.6, but it still shows 3.0.0.5. any idea what went wrong? any help is greatly appreciated.

As long as recovery says 3.0.0.6, then you are good to go. I get 3.0.0.5 in rom manager too but the proper version in recovery. I think it was mentioned in the thread that it would read 3.0.0.5 in Rom Manager.
thanks for the quick response. i understand that, but what i'm saying is that when use volume down and power now, it still says 3.0.0.5.

Flash it via the ADB commands.
download this file and store just the image on the SDcard of your phone....
adb shell
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

Can i ask why you downgraded to flash icons, and not use the 3.0.0.6 that you were on?

sorry cveez, i need to learn how to read.
i tried to flash with 3.0.0.6 and it failed. flash with 2.5.1.2 and it worked perfectly. then when i tried to go back to 3.0.0.6 i find myself stuck on 3.0.0.5. BTW i tried to flash with adb and it says flash image not found. i am very new to adb. used true blues method for adb and it finds my device. not really sure what to do now.

and see if sees your device.
If you serial number shows up turn on USB storage, download the file i attached then extract just the image to the root of the SDcard, not in a folder, just on the SD card. Then un-mount the SDcard from the computer....
Then type
adb shell

that will begin the commands for you to flash the image.
the c:\______ line will disappear and just show a "#"

I recently did a back up if my stock mt4g using clockwork. When I went to do a restore of that rom and rebooted it stayed stuck on the mt4g load screen. Anyone else have this problem? Did I do something wrong?

The reason your phone appears to be bricked is it (CWRM 3.0.0.5) is a ext4 recovery image, and 2.2 is a ext3 ROM....
. If you find a 2.x version of CWRM you can flash it via the ADB commands and restore the phone.
OR
boot into recovery and flash the CM7 w/ gapps then download CWRM ( the free one ) and flash 2.x that way. You'll have to scroll to the bottom and select one of the 2.x recovery images.
If you can get into Recovery or into fastboot your phone is not truly bricked.
I have CM7 installed and Rom Manager, but when i try to flash an older recovery it says it cannot be flashed. How exactly would you flash the 2.X version via ADB? Thanks.

If you can get into CwM recovery then just flash my zip and use the 3.0.0.6 recovery that is included. Then make sure that you make/restore all backups from recovery and not rom manager. Rom manager is not compatable with CwM 3.0.0.X when it comes to making nandroids.
Thanks a lot, but i keep running into and issue at the recovery. I followed the instructions from your thread, and i got into the blue recovery screen, but it says
"E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
E:Can't mount DATA:data/recovery/log"
And the only option to restore is the Applysdcard:update.zip and that fails

So, that is the stock recovery. You need to choose the 3.0.0.5 version from "All ClockworkMod recoveries" if using my zip. If that wont work, try sending a new recovery via fastboot or terminal emulator.
You can set up adb/fastboot by checking out the link in my sig and using the command (make sure you rename the recovery to recovery.img for ease of use)
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
or you can try terminal method by placing the recovery on your sd card and renaming it recovery.img Then open up TE and type "su" then the flollowing
Code:
flash_image recovery recovery.img
If that doesnt work, then let me know and we will find some other things to try.
Whoops haha. Thanks for all the help it's working great now

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.
How do you Flash this because I was thinking of flashing Royalginger
Flash it the way you flash any recovery, via fastboot or in the terminal emulator.

Store just the .img on your SDcard, then from ADB commands.
Code:
adb shell
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

And if that doesn't work (it didn't for me...I got a flash_image error possibly because my ROM doesn't contain the proper binary), the fastboot command is

According to option94 who made version 3.0.0.6, he says here that that is normal. What's really weird is that ROM Manager still says I have 2.5.1.2 installed!

from within the Clockwork ROM manager it will only pick up officially supported recoveries. You must boot into recovery to see what version [actual] it is .

Because it is more "fool proof" to flash it manually. The flashing method do work but flashing manually is always recommended.

Ok I have no idea what happened but I can not get into recovery mode. Rom manager takes me straight to bootloader and selecting recovery in bootloader takes me back to bootloader...! I've tried reflashing recovery via clockwork but no go, and flashing old 2.X.X versions gives me an error...
Help?
ROM Manager seems to be the least reliable way to flash the recovery. Try flashing it through terminal emulator or better yet, if you have the engineering SPL, do it through fastboot.
If you don't know how though you could try a reinstall of rom manager and if your running a custom rom boot straight into recovery from there to see what happens

The thing is that is how I have always done it and how I did it with this phone originally but something got messed up somehow. Anyhow how do I flash that with Terminal? I have never done that before. Do you have a link to a totorial and a download for clock work that can be flashed that way?

Im kind of a noob but did you reflashing cwm via adb? Do some research first though.
Also I think there is a trick to flash an older cwm via adb and then flash an older romm that needs cwm 2.xxx but I could be wrong

See my post in your other thread. It sounds like your recovery is fine, so all you need to do is wipe and re-flash.
