Rom manager doesn't list 3.0, only 2.5.1.4 as being the latest

ROMmanager is 3.0.0.2 the recovery has not changed since november 10.
There's nothing wrong with cwm. Maybe one will come with GB.

Support for ext4 file systems, that GB uses. If you're using any Android 2.2 based ROM, stay with CWM 2.5.1.3.

Yes it did --- I kinda jumped into it and did not really heed Cyanogen's big fat warnings... (reckless flashing) and I couldnt get gapps to flash -- the stuff from rhcp's CM7 thread -- but I got gingerbread going -- then I got distracted all night...woke up this morning trying to make the phone shape up for work -- that was a #fail and the battery seems horrible (then again by no means was it a proper battery test) -- so I decided to restore and that involved new drivers..(for some reason my SDK at work couldnt find the phone so I had to reinstall a fresh SDK (which i named gbSDK)... then found the current recovery at mybrainhurts.com and erased 3.0.0 and fastbooted the froyo recovery back in and restored. easy pie --
gingerbread is a whole 'nother game -- i just hope theres a way to go back and forth between froyo and GB (and eclair/cupcake/donut) without having to fastboot erase and fastboot flash relevant recoveries.
I am sure folks want to know if the new one fixes the "off" mode...and the answer is - i dont know. I didnt check. i kind of hope not because its a feature rather than a bug. theres no quick way to get to recovery when the phone is off. (on to fboot then to hboot then to recovery is too much work)

Is it even worth it to upgrade at this point in time? I'm a bit worried as it seems to be working pretty damn good with what I'm doing now. No partitions on my SD card because I don't care to put apps on it (it's not the fastest class card anyway).

what exactly happened when you flashed the gapps?
at least it didn't fry your g2. i think i might give it a go once i hear a few more success stories. my main worry atm is the ext4 issue. i guess i could just wait until rc1 i guess.
by 'off mode', are you referring to s-off?

I read the rhcp cm7 thread and i needed to unmount system before flashing the gapps. Thats why gapps failed because i didnt read!
By Off i meant how cw doesnt let the phone turn off when charging... i hope cw 3.0 lets us keep that feature.
Ill probably give it another go this weekend...it works its just if you wanna go back to froyo you need to replace recoveries manually..not a big deal but frankly gingerbread isnt all that more exciting than froyo. I feel i have what i need.in Froyo..the gb keyboard...the gb market... and thats fine with me.

Erase Recovery option
Call me naïve, but if people are making full-blown builds with an image recovery and everything from the CM gingerbread source (which includes the Clockwork Mod recovery 3.0.0 image if I'm reading the source properly), could you just go into ROM Manager, go into Settings, and check the "Erase Recovery" option to allow it to erase the recovery between flashes?
I would test this myself, but I need to go home and make myself fresh builds of CM7 and CM6.2 to try swapping/flashing back and forth between. I can report back once I get around to it later this afternoon.
If I understand that option correctly, applying a full flash of these alpha builds of CM7 should write the new recovery image (v3.0.0.0), and if you need to switch back to CM6, you should be able to just reflash a full build of 6.1.1/6.2 back and it will restore the older recovery image (v2.5.1.8 according to the latest froyo version).
EDIT: Negate that thought. Not sure how you would go about forcing the recovery image flash while in recovery. I got to research this a little more...

CWM Cache error [STRIKES AGAIN!]

[Solved!!]
When I open CWM I always get this error (see attached image) I have tried flashing an older version of CWM and I still get it... I have searched a TON to find the answer to this and it seems really common on Nexus S owners but I haven't found a solution... But because of this I can no longer flash anything.
Any ideas? I have fastboot erased EVERYTHING even tried fastboot flashing a Nandroid that I KNOW is a good backup... it seems to work but when I go to boot the device I get stuck that the bootscreen :/
[Solved!!!]
Anyone ever runs into this issue, flash CWM 2.X.X.X go to mounts, mount cache then format it. I couldn't mount cache in 3.X.X.X but it worked in 2.X.X.X. Not sure why this worked but whatever! lol
UPDATE!!!
SO the CWM Ghost is back, once again. Still nothing out of the ordanary done on my part, just started getting random FC's and boom there it's ugly mug is when I go to CWM to fix permissions...
BUT, here is the problem, I'm trying to fix it how I did last time and when I go to flash the new recovery in Fastboot via ADB I get this error:
sending 'recovery' <4000 KB>... OKAY [15.390s]
writing 'recovery' ...FAILED <remote: image update error>
I have tried a few different CWM recovery downloads... any ideas?

glad you fixed it, as many ppl have had this issue and have yet to recover from it!!! also, since you had fastboot set up i am assuming you have the 85.2007 engineering bootloader, correct?
i saw this preview post and all i could say is the cwm ghost got another one but it seems you got lucky!!!

I would say "lucky" as well. but i'm wondering if the 2.x recovery image might be the fix for this problem. If one could "brick" their phone with the same symptoms as this phone. Then flash the 2.x recovery and see if it fixes the problems.

Yeah I have 85. Bootloader, because I read to flash CM7 it was best to have that installed. As for me fitting lucky yeah I guess I did, I didn't realize this was one of those "end all" errors lol. Specially since I really have no clue what possessed me to flash the old clock work. Basically I felt there had been known issues with 3.X. so I thought "what would it hurt?" Turns out it helped!!! I'm using the phone now and everything is 100%

I think I found what you are talking about HERE but from what I gather that needs your phone able to boot cuz it changes the recovery via Rom Manager. Sadly my phone doesn't boot, all I have is hboot and the 3.1.2.4 recovery available to use, both of which are basically broken. Thanks for the help and the idea though I really hope we come up with a way to fix this somehow. Any dev who needs a phone to experiment on, hit me up.

Download zip from thread. Extract it to desktop or location of your choice. Go into the folders and find the recovery img that has 2.5.1.4 in the name. That is actually the 2.5.1.2 recovery. You can then re-name it to what ever you need to and push it to your device.
Hope this helps.

Download this navigate to this (C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Recovery_2.5.1.2_to_RomManager.zip\sdcard\clockworkmod\download\mirrorbrain.cyanogenmod.com\cm\recoveries\) extract the recovery 2.5.1.2. Rename it recovery.img and try to flash it via adb in hboot (fastboot flash recovery recovery I BELIEVE that is the command I can't honestly remember but a quick google search will yield you a adb guide no problem

I can't push to my device which is the COMMAND problem. Now when I try to push via ADB I get an error saying write---FAILED. I have tried a few other tricks I have been told as well about like repartitionion the cache via ADB and that doesn't work either. So I hope this works for the OP

New Atrix's

Me n the wife are getting rid of the HTC Aria's and just ordered 2 motorola atrix's. So far the reviews from most people are they are a good phone. i like the internal memory, ram, dual core. I dont like the HUGE screens, and dont like em small. so these are pretty good. So far from what ive seen, im gonna go with the alien Rom.
I dont like CM7. tried it a few times on the aria to get used to it. but just couldnt.
been trying to see what the difference in retail roms are, gingerbread, etc.
Wondering tho, are you able to backup the original rom before ya flash a custom to it, for the first time?

After install clockworkmod recovery you can nand backup your stock rom.

yeah you're able to backup the roms. you have to root it first so download this:
http://mophoforum.com/the2dcour/RSDLite5.5.rar
then use that program to flash this:
http://diamantephoto.com/IHOP_Bell.rar
then download fastboot and type in devices then take that special code and type in fastboot oem unlock "device code"
then download this http://server1.underpants-gnomes.biz/~romracer/atrix_recovery/recovery-atrix5.img and put it in the same directory as fast. I just renamed it to 1.img lol so i don't have to type out the whole filename
but anyways you type in
fastboot erase recovery then fasboot flash recovery 1.img then after that you'll have and unlocked bl and a custom recovery. then you download the alien rom place it in the main part of the directory you hold down the lower volume button and the power button then go down to android recovery (use the volume up button to pick) and go to backup/restore and backup (use the power button to click)
then you go to wipe/factory reset and then advanced wipe delvik cache, click yes to everything. then go to install zip files from sd card then if you put it in an sd card click that and if you installed it from internal then click that. and after it's done you go to wipe cache partition and advanced then wipe delvik partition. i don't know if you knew how to do any of that but i was just putting it out there. i got the links from the bl unlocker forum btw

lol just about got all that...
so what does flasing that first file actually do.. i cant just flash it, and not know what it does, or how i know it worked etc.
Im pretty sure i can figure it all out, just dont want to brick the thing.
p.s. the first link is dead...
website is gone.

Yeah if you brick your phone then what?

ive never bricked my phone from flashing, and it'll say the status of it and stuff. There's a possibility but i've flashed my phone at least 20 times with defferent roms cause im super picky about all that. but the instructions i posted are a simpler version of what it says in another tutorial. you can find it in developement and its called how to unlock bl.

guyz i need some advice as im currently using optimus 2x but i wanted to switch moto atrix is this a good decision or not and i wanted to know that weather atrix will get ICS update or not plz reply my question

Ok so the phone is rooted. its been a while since i did my aria, I think i need to get Hboot, or fastboot on it, so i can backup the rom..?

If its unlocked and rooted you can download Rom manager and just use the official CWM recovery to nand backup and then flash or after flashing CWM you can download RomRacers modded recovery from the development section, it's what I use just for the little modifications it has, and after Dow loading the CWM flashable zip of RomRacers recovery just reboot into recovery and flash RomRacers recovery. This method will give you RomRacers recovery and it will make Rom Manager think you have CWM installed so you can utilize all it's features. Hope this helps and if you need anything cleared up just let me know.
Link to RomRacer's recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500
On each color for the recovery, the first link is the .img only flashable with fastboot like you mentioned and the second one is obviously the .zip CWM flashable update.

Question about CWM vs TWRP

I am real new to the KindleFire community but so far loving my Kfire. I see in slot of posts they say to use TWRP to install or update a ROM. Since I have CWM installed can I use it instead are they interchangeable for installing files?
Hope that make sense.
Thanks
Rod

most people are taking about twrp because it was the first recovery for the kf
cwm is quite new for the kf
you can use both to install roms ...

Cwm is able to be updated by current developers. Twrp looks cool, but just needs to be updated. If someone updates the reboot wrappers it'd be a winner. But I do like and prefer cwm

Is there or link or how-to to swtich from TWRP to CWM? Does CWM have all the features as TWRP? I have been using TWRP since I rooted the KF, have used it to back up, flash new roms to try out, flash back to my backup. CWM does all this, just dosn't have the nice CWM interface?

The easiest way is to use THIS method, just be sure to unzip the file on your Kindle rather than on a computer or it may not work correctly. The only difference I've noticed between CWM and TWRP is that CWM does not compress the backup so the file is a lot bigger, my backups used to be in the low 500mb range and now they are in the low 800's.

Any particular reason to migrate to CWM? I have TWRP from the first day ant it doing a job very well. So, did CWM have any new features?

Development should be the main reason imo I think the interface looks way better. I got annoyed by the flickering backlight with twrp. It does all the same things, but cwm looks better. Plus before I switched, twrp wouldn't flash roms or gapps all the time, it would get stuck and I would have to reboot

For me there was not a reason to use TWRP as I have been using CWM for the last several years on smartphones and was more comfortable with it. I also read several articles where people had issues with TWRP so with as much problems as I was having trying to root my kindle because of USB driver I wanted to stick with something I know. So I thought it best to stick with and old friend I was used too. Not saying one is better than the other I just like CWM better for me and think it gives me more options to perform operations on my phone and kindle.

How have the pros and cons changed with the intro of TWRP 2.1? I am currently using CWM touch but prefer the TWRP interface, but don't want to sacrifice any features.

different versions of CWM touch?
I just switched from CWM touch (DooMLorD) v1.0 Final to v5.0.2.7-kf1.5 I was wondering what the differences are? I tried the Change UI color feature, but it doesn't seem to work, just stays red. is there something I'm missing? and what else was changed?

its just cleaned up. not sure why it wont change colors, works fine on my device I tested all the colors when I posted the screen shots.

I left the Eris long ago but keep it around as a pmp, since my trackball doesnt scroll and the mic is busted.. when I started using it again I couldn't flash anything new because I was on amonRA.. so I took the plunge and used cwm and I haven't ran into a single issue.. there, that's my Eris history xP right now I have it on cm7.2 stable

the only thing I have to say since I barely use the thing is that I have installed is a 32gb sdcard and before on 7.1 it sometimes didn't finish the boot cycle because every so often it gets stuck at checking sdcard.. now its more likely to boot completely.. don't get me wrong, it still sometimes gets stuck on boot... again fault is because of the 32gb sdcard.. and me having to have lots of music...

Don't boot into recovery using rom manager, as is it will boot u into older version.. but if u delete the recovery-update.zip in the clockworkmod folder it will boot into the new recovery but with an error
The background images for the recovery are huge x_X
Recovery: recovery-clockwork-5.8.4.3-desirec.img
md5sum: db3e9d93c7f1f52a427b7f6ca427cabf

what u do is u go to the site and insert a recovery ( even stock ) for ur device and it builds it for ur based on cwm.. fortunately ( or unforunately, if u wanted to do it urself ) there was already one done for the hero =] .... yes that means i looked through a good amount of them just to see what people were building x.x

There are lots of posts on this site (and on others), many relatively recent, from people with Erises that cannot boot that almost all started with a person who was running with ClockworkMod as their recovery image; none that I know of from people who started with Amon_RA. Scary Alien made a trackball-optional version of Amon_RA (with Amon_RA's permission) for the Eris which works with the hardware keys as well as the trackball. See http://androidforums.com/eris-all-t...2-custom-recovery-trackball-not-required.html
So, be careful with Clockwork Recovery.

I seriously think the issues have been resolved.. the way koush works on them brings what he did before to the next recovery he makes.. if that issue was still around there would be a lot of phones not booting..

There was just an issue a week or two ago. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1702130
That's pretty typical - for some reason, these phones end up with bad blocks in some partitions (usually system.img, cache.img) that are difficult to resolve.
Note that you can install ROM Manager on a CM ROM and hit "install recovery". This installs an update.zip file in the root of the SD card. From Amon_RA you can flash the update.zip and it will start Clockwork. That method seems to be safe and is the way that I flash, Nandroid, etc., on the Eris.
Again, this seems to be an Eris issue with Clockwork as the default recovery. If it works for you, that's fine, but I would try to get on the 1.49.2000 S-OFF bootloader so that you can use fastboot as a recovery tool if you are not on that bootloader already.

Yeah, that's how I always thought was the safest way to do it--running CWM from ROM Manager.

Yep, been using ROM Manager, and CWM through update.zip via Amon RA for a year and a half now without any issues. I don't think I'd ever be tempted to flash CWM over Amon RA; I'd rather have the best of both worlds without wondering if I'm taking any additional risk.

well.. I understand everyone's opinion and its cool.. I tried working on making a recovery.zip that just restarted the recovery not overwrite it, but it just wouldn't do it =/
