Hey guys i did everything correctly, i backed up my apps using titanium backup, and flashed clockworkmod recovery, and then downloaded SlashDW Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 unofficial rom, and it asked me if i wanted to boot into recovery, so i clicked yes, after wiping everything, but it just shows a yellow triangle with a exclamation mark in it, and then my phone at the side.
What am i meant to do? Please help.EDIT: Posted in general section.
Somehow you still have the stock recovery.. flash again?
Hey thanks for the quick reply. Yes when i press home + power, i can go into clockwork mod recovery, but i'm new to this so i want to do it through rom manager. Everytime, i try to do it, it comes up with the same thing, the yellow triangle with exlamation mark.
I'll flash recovery again, to see what happens. Thanks for your help again.

So home + power gets you in cwm recovery? Then use that.
But i'm downloading a rom through rom manager, but that just dosen't work. & i accidently deleted the CW recovery image, so i had to install the clockwork rom manager again to get the folders on the sd card back. Oh and i re-installed everything so i'll give it a try again and see what happens.
It won't even let me press home + Pwr to go into CW recovery anymore now as well, shows yellow triangle, what shall i do?
Just reflash the recovery image, make sure superuser gives permissions to clockwork, then try, its a hassle but it happened to me too

Thanks, i re-flashed and then tried installing the recovery image, and it keeps coming up with a error like this, when it starts doing it:
assert failed: write_raw_image("
/tmp/boot.img" , "boot")
E:Error in /sdcard/clockworkmod/
download/romshare.deployfu.com.com
Basically it's a status 7 error. (that's what it says)

Is it possible to flash roms directly from Rom Manager without having to start via recovery?
My question is because I cant start my phone in fastboot, recovery, bootloader etc. The screen turns all black if I try anything.
So in Rom Manager there is an option "Flash Rom from SD-card"...pretty much the same that you can see in recovery from clockworkmod. And if I click on it, then I can wipe data and cache also.
Is this a way to flash roms for me if I cant make it to recovery or start the phone in fastboot?
Yes you can flash roms directly from ROM Manager, that is how I do it atleast
nice, will test this! if it doesnt automaticly boots in recovery for the flashingprocess? Or does the rom manager creates a own recovery maybe?
It boots into Clockworkmod recovery I think

Yes it did! and cant boot into that!! Really this is a annoying thing for me!
And I cant run unrevoked again either because I cant boot into HBOOT, so cant install the android bootloader interface. AAAAHH!
Try installing a recovery from rom manager. If there is some problem with the original recovery, it might help. This works by placing the recovery image as 'update.zip' under your sdcard and rebooting. That will her flashed and HOPEFULLY you will have a working recovery.

Ensure you have the update.zip directly under your sdcard and go for a normal reboot. It should flash it and take you to recovery mode.

Have that, and have tryed different versions on the recovery, still only black screen for me when trying this!
Have you tried pressing the power button when in the black screen? I was caught unawares when the recovery mod boot and stays in the cloclworkmod image and not go to the options. I have to press the power button to reach the recovery mod options. I have run out of ideas, sorry.

Thanks for the effort! Have tryed it like 100 times, but cant make it into recovery! Have to take the battery out and restart the phone in normal mode. Thats all I can do, and have tryed all different ways to make it into recovery.
(from rom manager, voldown+power), restart-->recovery, restart-->bootloader)
same results every time...maybe works if I get a new battery or new sdcard or something!
hey guys so today I finally rooted my HTC Legend, installed rom manager, made my backup using clockwork i believe? well i installed clock work, then i made a backup of my rom, now I tried to install CyanogenMod from rommanager and also installed google apps...
The problem is now..
When i turn the phone on it keeps looping on the blue logo with the elctricity going around...cant turn it off cant do anything, have to manually take the battery out and start it up again..
Im not sure how to get my original rom back on, but i tried to get into the recovery menu atleast..I can get to the fastboot, but when i go into bootloader, then click recovery it does everything normally, it shows the red triangle, I run recovery-windows.bat ( provides in Paul's tutorial at modaco ) and it says device not found..
EDIT: before I installed cyanogen, i disabled debugging mode for something, and I dont think i turned it back on :S I think it may have something to do with me not getting into recovery...what do i do! :'(
Put the Clockwork Mod Fake flash update.zip from the Development Forum on your SDCard and then go again in Recovery, until you see the red triangle. Then hit Volume up + Power and select flash update.zip. You should boot in Clockwork Mod Recovery then.
I dont even think you need to put fake flash on your card. If you choose to install clockwork recovery through rom manager its there. The reason your in a loop is that you didnt clear enough before installing CM 6. Enter clockwork recovery by volume up and power, it can take some trys. There factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache. Reinstall CM 6 + google apps and reboot. You should be good to go!

OMG! Thank you so much! I booted into clockwork, and am currently "restoring" to my default one when i first rooted..hopefully it works!
EDIT: YESS IT WORKS! I FCKING LOVE U!
Hey there, i did the oem unlock and flashed clockwork recovery and super user. Everytime i reboot my phone the clockwork recovery is just gone., Im coming from an evo so im used to holding the volume down button down at boot with the power button..can i do that to get into clockwork on my Nexus S?
Thanks, alright now how do i boot into recovery without using rom manager? like on my evo i would hold volume button down and hold the power button.... doesnt seem to work on the NS4G
hold volume up while powering up. will take you to bootloader screen, then select recovery option.
Okay after installing clockwork recovery using rom manager when i go to the recovery in fast boot and select it i get the little triangle with ! in the middle of it and a little android\
Edit: It seems like each time i flash it, i can only go to it once, the next time I go to it i get the triangle with the ! in it.
this happened to me too. take out the battery to power off, then power back on and boot, then reflash clockwork via rom manager, make sure you go to all clockworkmod recoveries, make sure you flash version 3.1.0.0...then launch bootloader again.
took me flashing recovery via rom manager 2 or 3 times for it to stick.

No i didnt. Every time i reboot it just disappears D:
also, did you try booting into recovery from the rom manager app after flashing? i was able to boot into recovery via app and fastboot.
update: i'm now getting the exclamation mark while trying to get to recovery. when i reflashed it one more time, i'm able to boot into via app and fastboot again. there's obviously something wrong with cwm recover as its not sticking all the time.
I have it working now.
Using this
BE SURE TO FLASH CLOCKWORK MOD FROM ROM MANAGER AND DO THIS IMMEDIATELY AFTER WITHOUT REBOOTING
At this point you have root, but your phone will continue to replace ClockworkMod Recovery on reboot. To prevent this, do the following:
1) Reboot your phone, and download the app "Root Explorer" from the Market
2) Open Root Explorer and navigate to the "etc" directory.
3) Tap on the gray box that says "Mount R/W"
4) Tap and hold on the file "install-recovery.sh" and rename this file to "install-recovery.sh.old"
5) Download the app "ROM Manager"
6) Open ROM Manager and choose "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery". At this point you are all set .
I was just going to post that for you xD
Glad to see it working!
cool, glad you found it. idk why my recovery was sticking most of the time w/o that hack

Hey guys
I'm having an issue booting into clockwork recovery. and i'm having even more of an issue finding the answer, I'm pretty sure that someone is gonna come up with a thread which already answers my Q, I just don't know enough of the terms to search sorry
I've followed instructions here in Kursks walk through to unlock my loader, install super user and install clockwork mod etc.
Clockwork mod and super user are now fully upto date.
I've managed to do a backup of my current rom using clockwork mod.
I have also managed to get the phone to boot in to clockwork recovery from within the android app. But only once.
when ever i now try to do a backup, reboot into recovery, or boot to loader menu and select recovery it always fails.
I get the image of a box with the arrow next to android, then after a few seconds the box and arrow turn into a triangle with "!" inside it.
I'm probably making a rookie error here, but I'm having trouble finding the answer.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Reflash clockworkmod recovery via fastboot.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Hi and thanks for your reply
well i reflashed clockwork mod and selected to reboot into recovery, and that worked fine
I then booted back to android, selected a rom to DL and install, and got the same issue again
re-flashed again, selected a rom to install and that appears to be working
Do you have to re-flash clockwork recovery everytime? or is mine doing something weird?
Thanks again for your reply

I'll ask aswell.
Clockwork recovery won't stick for me either. I9023.
I don't have the /etc/install-recovery.sh anywhere. Looked and searched via root explorer. No files whatsoever called install-recovery.sh. On CM7.
Can anyone give me any tips?
Downgrade to older clockwork via Rom manager . I've had that problem it makes no different and it works fine
Thanks guys I think you've managed to sort me out
Recently having a problem using Rom Manager. Have downloaded clockwork recovery.
When using "Reboot into Recovery" or "Backup Current ROM" from ROM Manager it takes me to the green recovery and stops.
If I then go to "Advanced" followed by "Reboot Recovery" I then get the red ClockworkMod Recovery.
If I use the power button (Bionix 1.3.1) and chose "Recovery" it then goes to the proper "Red" recovery.
I have been using ROM Manager for approximately a year to do backups and restores, but not it seems not to be "associated or connected" with the clockworkmod recovery.
Any advice? I recently wiped cache and dalvik. Was this a mistake?
I have uninstalled and re-installed ROM Manager but had the same results afterwards.
Thanks,
rblancrt
No ideas?
No one else had this problem before?
If I select backup current rom from ROM Manger it goes to the green recovery. If I then reboot recovery it goes to the red recovery.
Worked fine for probably a year.
If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.
ROM Manager still not working properly
Thought I would try again.
When I select "Backup current ROM" from ROM Manager my phone goes to the green recovery where I have to scroll through and select backup.
Part of the purpose of ROM manager is that it is a front-end application for CWM, but it is not working as such.
Anyone know anything more about the details of how ROM manager works? I have uninstalled and reinstalled it several times but it doesn't change anything.
Have been using it for almost a year with no problems until recently.
Thanks for any info.
And after the backup is complete it goes back to the green recovery and I have to select reboot system. ROM Manager used to and should do these things automatically.
Problem solved?
Well, I guess I will never know what happened but through a "magical" combination of updates and reboots, and who knows, it began working properly again today.
Anyone has a problem with the free version?
I couldn't install it after ODIN.

You can pull a copy of it from my signature. It is an update.zip and in my dropbox so it will always be there when you need it.

Thanks, Woodrube. Actually, I went to get the newest Rom Manager v4.8.3 from 4shared.com. Everything is OK now.
