I have been exploring different Rom on my HTC Evo and on my Nookcolor tablet, and I have been confronted with this issue:
My Rom manager on both devices is 3.0.1.4: My understanding is that this is the latest verison (as of Mar 31 2011).
My Evo's clockworkmod recovery is 3.0.0.5
My Nookcolor's clockworkmod recovery is 3.0.1.0
Is the clockworkmod recovery dependent on the device it is installed on (ie some android tablets never get updated), or does cockworkmod get updated over time (I manually updated the nookcolor from 3.0.0.5 to 3.0.1.0 when I started messing with C7 Rom for the nook)
Do I need to update my evo or does the above principle apply (each device's appropriate revision level for clockworkmod recovery is unique).
Thanks
Robyn
None have the answer for me or can you point me in the right direction to educate myself. I have searched diligently both here on xda and openly on the web.
I really do want to understand.

I recently changed the recovery to the clockworkmod recovery but to my understanding with the version I have (3.0.0 something like that) only supports edify roms. Well the problem is almost none have that coding. I like clockworkmod because I can backup the roms ive used but if I cant get a rom to work im going to go back to the original recovery. Can I downgrade the clockworkmod or do I just have to wait for the devs to start using edify?
If there are any roms that are known that will work with the optimus t I would appreciate it very much. Thanks
(My first post on these forums)
Megatron V1-AmonRa Recovery-not CWM 3.1.0.0
Devoid Froyo Final-AmonRa Recovery but I hear it works for the CWM 3.1.0.0 (try it, let me know)
Mik_os CM7 (unofficial)-only CWM 3.1.0.0
There are tons of Froyo Roms but not many Gingerbread, I believe the sources arent around yet
Hi guys I really hope someone can help me with this. I was running CM7 Nightly rom and decided to try and flash eaglesblood 2.3.5 and it flashed ok but the problem is that when I tried restoring my back-up on it I get an clockworkmod recovery error. Any Ideas?
I don't know what phone you have or which version of clockwork you are using, but for some phones clockwork recently got an upgrade to 5.x.x. If you upgraded your clockwork after you made your backup, the previous backups will not work with the new version. You may have to downgrade. Like I said, I don't know your issue, but that is a possible solution.
I used the Advance Ace Hack Kit (version 13012012) to root my HTC Inspire. I noticed that the version of ClockworkMod that it installed was 5.0.2.7.
I then thought I might flash a new rom so I downloaded Rom Manager. One of the options of Rom Manger is to install ClockworkMod. However I would like to verify that flashing whatever version of ClockworkMod from Rom Manager over the current version installed by AAHK won't cause any problems.
Does anybody know?
I looked at the ClockworkMod site and it had version 5.0.2.7 as the current version, but it didn't list the HTC Inspire as compatible.
Rom manager doesn't seem to want to do anything until I flash its version of ClockworkMod. I assumed that it might know that ClockworkMod was already on it, but apparently not.
So, will I mess things up if I just let Rom Manger flash whatever version of ClockworkMod over the AAHK version (which seems to be the newest version)? If I decide to flash a rom I might just do it from the console rather than Rom Manager.
Thanks for any insight.
I'm still learning but I'm pretty sure it'll be ok. And I think the reason it doesn't show inspire 4g is cause the inspire is just paired with desire hd

Thanks @Boss man. I had thought the same thing about clockworkmod not showing Inspire 4g, however, for the Desire HD it shows that 5.0.2.0 as the current version (not 5.0.2.7).
I've only had this phone a week, so it's all a bit new...and I certainly don't want to brick the thing if I don't have to Hoping that someone has used Rom Manager to flash over a different version (even if newer version) of ClockworkMod.

Hi, CWM recovery is a must before you flash a new rom. That won´t conflict with the Hack Kit as the Hack Kit only roots your phone. Once that is finished then there's nothing more. The CWM recovery is a new image that is flashed to your cell and that allows you among other things to backup your current rom and flash new ones.
Before you move towards flashing anything you have to install CWM or you will get stuck in the HBoot menu. Inspire 4G is fully compatible with Rom Manager and CWM and will install the last version available. When you choose to flash CWM recovery it will prompt you what device is yours...choose Desire HD and that will do. The desire HD is the European version of Inspire, but NEVER try to flash software that is for the Desire HD as that some aspects are not the same (Radio, kernel) and might jam you up. Hope it helps....
Thanks. Yea that helps. However, I already have CWM recovery on my phone. I did not put it there. However, I bought the phone used. All I did was use the AAHK and after rooting was done version 5.0.2.7 of CDW recovery was on the phone.
I don't know what version of CDW recovery ROM Manger flashes. Just want to make sure that _if_ it flashes a new _or_ older version of CDW recovery it doesn't jam anything up for me.

As far as you Flash the CWM recovery from the Rom Manager, it won´t jam you up as it flashes the last version that is compatible with your device. If you are in doubt you just can flash it again to make sure.
If you are thinking about installing a custom rom then don´t forget to make a nandroid backup (copy current rom) and enjoy!!...
Help!

take out the battery and insert it again, press power and press volume down, and so keep trying ... enters hboot and from there comes the recovery and makes all wipes.. I was in your same situation and that was my solution

Hi guys,
I'm having trouble with this. I'm rooted and unlocked with CWM, and after flashing CM9 I can't mount the SD card through CWM. I flashed the latest CWM (5.8.4.0) but it doesn't seem to have helped. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can solve this?
Flash TWRP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677447
Our device is not officially supported by CWM. TWRP is the way to go, as the post above suggests.
Its a known issue with CWM and our device. As others suggested, best to use TWRP. Everything works, and it officially supports our device (CWM does not).
Also that version of CWM isn't meant for an EVITA HTC One X. Damned AT&T demanding the name of this device be the same as a completely different phone. causes all kinds of problems.
Thank you all! I came from the galaxy family so I assumed CWM was the best, but apparently not here.
