I rooted my vzw tab and installed rom manager and used that to flash CWM. well I then use rom manager to try and create a backup but nothing happens. it reboots to recovery in CWM but thats it. Did i do something wrong?
PLEASE USE THE CWM UPDATE BY KOUSH ONLY.. ALSO, PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT CWM VERSION 5.5.0.4 has been reported to have some freeze issues, contact Koush and forward a logcat or provide information so he can resolve. Until then, use an earlier version until all the bugs are gone..... thank you--- oka1 moderator
Today I noticed That Koush Has released CWM 5.5.04 for Our device. So simply You can Download Rom manager from Market and then just install the CWM.
AllCredits go to KOUSH.
Here IS the .img file.

Installed fine. Reboot to recovery still doesn't work for me. Still works fine when using the app from the market though. Thanks for the heads up.
Reboot to recovery messed up my tab, so it would only boot into recovery (booting to Android was done manually).
works either manually or via market app reboot to recovery, via ClockworkMod restart the system, is not in recovery
"reboot system now" does not work, reboot into recovery again.
Same to me on my tab. Don't install it yet.
Unable to install either through rom manager
or
Terminal method
Rom manger says it installed it but when I reboot to revocery (via another app)
it's still the old one
Terminal emulator says image not found no matter where I store it or what directory I point to
Seems like I'm missing something.
The linked .img file is a blob file with the SOS partition. It can be flashed through the staging partition. If you extract it or strip out the header, it will be a regular .img file that can be flashed through cwm (with a little work).
I haven't flashed it yet.
Same here, unable to boot android again (recovery loop), is there any way to flash the old one from adb?
Thanks
bug
since i have instal it i can't go out of the recovery when i do restart and it reboot in recovery again
go out by pressing power button + volume down , wait a moment and you can select recovery or boot android os
If you go into advanced there's no option to return.
Wasn't there a bug about installing recovery with Rom Manager that causes constant boots into recovery?
let me look...

Official, yes, see here the 5.5.0.4 for tf101, the .img and .zip:
http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/
I should have read more of this thread before flashing. Because now mine does what everyone else is doing. Goes back into the recovery in a loop..
If You have problems return to the older:

=================
mine flashed fine from rom manager pro on Eos-tf101-5 All menu's seem to work fine, but there is no external SD access only internal. Still can't access recovery from rom manager but that's the same standard issue with the rom.
it support tf101g or not ?
Cant flash a new recovery either.
Tried reflashing rogue and still boot loops into cwm.
Downloaded current cwm from web link above and flashed. Still boot loops into recovery.

I would love to go back to the older one...But my Tab doesnt show the sdcard at all. Only internal memory...weird
Flashing the IMG via NVFLASH broke recovery for me. Installing it through ROM Managers works fine.
OK, so I flashed one of the new leaked ICS stock ROMs and it appears that everything is ok. I'm digging all of the features including the panoramic camera. I decide that I want to put on Taboonay for a little flavor. I try to boot into recovery and this is what I get:
Erasing cache before SD update
SD update cmd: recovery
--update_Package=SDCARD:update.zip
Booting recovery kernel image
(IN RED) Recovery verified failed
Yes, I tried to flash a recovery image through the ACER recovery install and the ROM Manager. Both of them flashed an image with no problem, until I actually tried to flash an image.
My question is this: How do I flash a recovery image if my bootloader is busted?
I do have ADB access , so it there a way I can copy a recovery image file directly onto the A500?
I appreciate the help!

Well, not sure if I can get you up and running. This is going to depend on if you followed traditional installation instructions that are posted on every thread that contains a Rom.
But first, let's cover where you went wrong. And that would probably be when you went back to Recovery. It seems, you didn't hit Vol - and PWR, but instead selected Vol + and PWR. And as such, it tried to run an update.zip file, which is a no-no. This resulted in a corrupted image.
Secondly, Rom Manager is a phone app. This will in most cases, bork your tab.
First, I would try Acer Installer (newest version) and try to install RA Recovery. If you were using CWM before, you probably can't flash it again.
If that doesn't work, then you will have to roll back from ICS, and you will need your original UID number. Hopefully you wrote this down somewhere. If you were using RA Recovery, you will find the UID number in the UID.txt on your SD Card in the Recovery folder (if you made a system backup before flashing ICS roms). If you were using CWM, well, it might be buried in one of the .img files in the clockwork folder (again, if you made a backup before flashing ICS). You will have to de-compile the image files to find it (hopefully).
If your ADB seems to be working, you may want to push the RA Recovery;

If you have your original UID number, then you may want to try this;

Hope you get it going. From what I have seen, mostly when the people lose their recovery, they were using CWM. Haven't heard of any losing it when using RA Recovery. But anyhow, use Acer Recovery first, and try the RA Recovery.
Before i go doing some thing stupid i just want to make sure im doing the correct thing.
If i use the update.zip to install the ICS update do i need to use acer recovery.apk to replace my custom recovery back the the original recovery?saved before i flashed RA.
Just wondering if you can help me guys.
So, after i've rooted my device and placed CMW version 5.0.2.6 into it. suddenly after clicked reboot system in recovery mode, it just returns to recovery mode. Its like a reboot loop, but its in the recovery mode. PLEASE help me.
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck

How did you install cwm?
There's only two ways to get cwm on 5360
Temp cwm
Flash this in stock recovery every time you need cwm
Perminant cwm
This is built into a custom kernel & replaces stock kernel & recovery
If you chose the later it's most likely the kernel you
flashed is not compatible with the rom/file system you are using
More information about what you are using & what you did is required
If all else fails flash stock rom via odin and start again
