my hd2 is rooted and has rom manager and super user and all that good stuff. but when i go to ad recovery it doesn't load up into recovery.
is that possible that somehow i don't have CWM recovery installed?
im trying to update to an ICS rom and im guessing thats the easiest way

Which ROM are you running? You DID flash whatever it was via CWM right? And it's not the easiest way to update to CWM, it's the ONLY way.

Backup your apps in Titanium Backup then flash CWM. Chances are you would have needed to change the partition size anyway. After that, just flash ICS and you should be fine. Oh, also note that ROM Manager is not compatible with MAGLDR, so trying to use it could corrupt the recovery (from what I've heard) which may be where you went wrong

(Didn't mean to hit thanks BTW, but you get a free thanks ) If I'm not mistaken the latest version is 5.0.2.6 although I'm using 3.0.2.5 and I really can't see the difference. 3.0.2.5 is also supposed to be the stablest version from what I've heard, but I haven't tried any others.
EDIT: Well clearly I'm wrong but I could've sworn I've seen 5.0.2.6 somewhere (it isn't something you just make up) but yeah here's the thread.
EDIT 2: Actually adil and I are both correct, 5.0.2.6 is the actual recovery version and 1.3 is the release version for the HD2 (in the same way NexusHD2 is on v2.2 whilst the actual ROM is ICS 4.0.4)

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

Can't do either.
UPDATE: To fix 3.0.2.4 from not formatting /system
Open rom manager and select settings, and check erase recovery. hit menu again and select clear cache, then flash 3.0.2.4 again.
now if your in recovery and you cant boot back up to use rom manager, use the file below. It will allow you to restore your backup then once booted back up use the method above to fix 3.0.2.4.
The reason im leaving custom over 3.0.2.4 is bc i know fastboot flash with this one will allow you to restore without wiping recovery or clear cache or anything else.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/b8ejhqbf3tgnsoe/recovery.img - this is CMW 3.0.1.4 just altered for installing zips. linking for people needing a recover img to boot up
To install:
1. If in recovery, open ur terminal on ur pc and type adb reboot boatloader
2. Once in bootloader it will load fast boot and say fastboot usb in red
3. cd to the folder with fastboot.exe and also place recover.img in that folder
4. then enter fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
5. adb reboot recovery
6. restore your backup and boot up
RafficaX said:
Little FYI for all, cwm recovery wont format system on a restore. made a backup, tried a flash and went to restore and it fails formatting system.
So be careful with flashing and all bc yo may not be able to restore currently with cwm.
UPDATE: format system in menu also fails! be careful bc you pretty much cant restore or flash atm!

I ran into the same problem. I tried to do a restore and got stuck. I used an sd card reader and put the 3rd file from the root thread PG05IMG.zip on the root of my sd card. I then put the card back in. Rebooted into recovery holding the volume down and the power button. It reflashed the file automatically and I followed the steps from 7 on to regain root. Worked for me, but now I have to start over. Hopefully they will get CWM working again. I will be much more careful about what I delete from now on. I think I will freeze it in TiBackup first to make sure everything is still working correctly. Hope this helps.

What exact Clockwork Mod Recovery did you flash to you're HD2? As there is two was of installing it and two ways of booting it.

It updated to 3.0.2.5,then I restored a previous backup.
Everything back to normal.

Hi,
No memory left means the last version of recovery you installed was smaller than the current one. You need to completely repartition MAGLDR in order to install new version in that case.
Is there an average partition size and cache size? I need to choose?

I think you should start the process again from the beginning.
Task 29
Install magldr
Install CWM by using the partition you want for your new ROM.So look at the [OP] of your new ROM, get the CWM partition and flash that.
Then you can go straight to installing the ROM.
I have flashed several roms using CLW already and it always worked fine, but now I'm really stuck.
The problem is that I installed the Hyperdroid CM7 rom. It worked fine. But when I wanted to install the Google Apps I just couldn't get into the recovery mode from the MAGLDR menue anymore. It just says "ERROR ERROR: Cannot read ramdisk image". I tried to update the CLW using the Rom Manager but it didn't solve my problem. Unfortunatelly I also can't boot the rom anymore now (I can't since I formated the SD card).
Can I now just install CLW again (over the existing version) with the "USB Flasher" option from the boot menue? Or can I repair the installed version somehow?
Is there a way of installing CLW under Linux? I've tried using WINE to run the daf.exe but it didn't work since it couldn't find the the usb connection.
Which would be the preffered method of installing roms NAND roms with Linux?
Thanks for any help in advance!

ROM Manager isn't compatible with MAGLDR, which is probably why your phone was messed up when you tried to use it. It only works if you use the cLK bootloader. As for your problem, I really can't see much else you can do other than fresh installing CWM through USB Flasher. I don't use Linux so I can't help you there, sorry.
Oh, I wasn't aware that MAGDLR isn't compatible with the ROM manager because it came with the MAGDRL/CWM rom i flashed. But thanks for that information!
Can I just install CWM "over" the allready installed but not existing version? Or will that cause even mor eproblems?

I think that would be fine, there isn't much point in Task29ing unless you are having major issues.
Ok,so since I couldn't get hold of a windows PC yet I couldn't re-install clockwork flashing with USB cabel.
But I couldn't load CWM recovery from SD card as described in this post #4 of this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1352395
I was not able install the CWM then in the second step form zip file on the SD card. Some error message appeared, but I was able to flash a ROM. So my CWM is still broken, but the ROM is working fine which is ok for me now. When I get access to a Windows PC I'll re-flash CWM too.
So the "Linux problem" isn't solved but anyone experiencing problems to get into recovery from MAGDRLR menu should try the way in the above mentioned post.

Glad to hear it You aren't putting CWM 5.0.2.6 SD as a zip on your SD card by any chance are you? Because you need to extract it to your SD, I misread it first time around and was quite confused as to how that worked as a .zip file.
