Hey,
I would like to use the ROM manager, but he always wants to install clockwork.
I've already installed Clockwork but using a different method.
What can happen if I install it now again or how do I solve the problem?
Yet another question:
How do I find out which ROM I need? >Click<
Thanks.
I have another Question:
Whats the difference between the following ROMs:
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.45.401.2_Radio_10.56.9035 .00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_208857_signed

RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_10.42.9007 .00P_10.11.9007.15_M_release_192608_signed
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.27.401.3_Radio_10.42.9007 .00P_10.11.9007.15_M_release_192183_signed

As I know, the latest ClockWork Mod has issues with charging when the battery is dead. The fixed one has Blue writing, others have Purple and Orange I think.
I never used ROM Manager, so I don't know. You should wait for someone else to answer this

This is the link I used, as my RUU isn't listed in the other thread.
So, I'll give you an example of how I found out my ROM.
Basically, the file name says everything.
Open (Settings -> About Phone -> Software Information)
This is the RUU I used.
Code:
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_ARA_1.34.415.1_Radio_10.43a.9007.0 0U_10.51.9007.27_M3_release_197242_signed.exe
I'll split the file name into parts to make things clearer.
- RUU: (Rom Upgrade Utility)
- Pyramid: It is the model of the HBOOT I think.
- HTC:
- ARA: I bought the phone from Saudi Arabia, which is an Arabic country.
- 1.34.415.1: Software Number, can be found in (Settings -> About Phone -> Software Information)
- 10.43a.9007.0 0U_10.51.9007.27_M3: Radio/Baseband version, can be found in (Settings -> About Phone -> Software Information -> More)
- 197242: The build number of the ROM I suppose.
I believe you should take note of those before flashing Custom ROMs, as if you ever want to get back to Stock ROM.
I hope I cleared it up a bit for you
Thanks! I have a nandroid Backup of my Stock ROM, so I can check this.

I was going to ask the same thing. I had already installed Clockwork recovery using the fastboot.exe method after unlocking the bootloader. When I selected Check for ROM Updates from ROM Manager it said that Clockwork needed to be installed. Is there any harm in installing it again with this method? I did make a backup of my ROM using Clockwork.

I think it was just talking about flashing to the newest version (there are a lot of different versions of CWM linked on these threads and guides, but mostly they go to 4.0.14, and the latest is 5.0.20). The newest version has faster backups, but it looks like there are sporadic reports that the recovery won't charge when at low battery, which if true is a regression as this bug was specifically fixed in 4.0.14. At least that's my impression from reading the forums.
i'm just wondering, what recovery do you use and which one is the best?
4ext touch is the best

You're lucky to have an HTC device which allows you to use something as good as 4EXT Recovery.
There is no doubt that it is visually and functionally way better than the classic CWM Recovery. Add to it the new TOUCHRECOVERY, and you have the best recovery available FOR ANY DEVICE out there today!!
currently i'm using revolutionary recovery. if i want to change to 4EXT, all i have to do is download and install recovery updater? or can i just flash the attached files from here and then use the recovery updater to find the latest one?

All you need to do is to download and install 4EXT Recovery Updater, and launch it. It will ask for root access, after which you can use it to flash 4EXT Recovery. It will download 4EXT Recovery and flash it on your device, replacing the older CWM Recovery you have currently, it's that simple. No complicated steps... just like running an app.
And did i mention...? It's FREE!!
Done!! thank you very much for the reply
4EXT Recovery Classic/Touch hands down

You're most welcome brother. All new things are confusing and daunting at first to anyone.
(Unless, of course, you're Chuck Norris or Rajnikanth!!)
thanks for the help. installed 4ext touch, really liking it
good choice
Even going to the moon without a space suit is easy for Chuck Norris, He eats phones for breakfast
4ext touch,can touch,not use volume,very good
I currently have Endymion V3.3 rom installed. I went through the revolutionary process to get root. I currently have the revolutionary cwm recovery installed. I tried installing 4EXT updater but when I went to recovery I still got revolutionary cwm recovery. Also I did a backup with this recovery, would I be able to use it when I install 4EXT. Thanks

All you need to do is to

No complicated steps... just like running an app.
As for using backups made with 4EXT, yes you will be able to use them. 4EXT is 100% backward compatible with CWM Recovery. Even the location of your backups remains unchanged (in the folder sdcard/clockworkmod/backups)
Go ahead, try the steps i outlined above. Then let us know if you hit any problem (very unlikely though!)

Hey, i have a bit of trouble...
Just followed your guide to install 4ext recovery but the **** wont work...
I have downloaded the updater apk and installed it, i granted superuser access, then i pressed (in the application) "Online install | upgrade" then chose the latest recovery package and pressed install.
After that has been done it says: "Successfully flashed new recovery. Recovery.img was saved to sdcard/..." but later when i reboot to mine recovery i still have the freakin CWM 2.5.0.3 or something installed... WHAT am i doing wrong..?

See the above posts.... this method works flawlessly. But if for some reason you're unable to update from CWM, just download the attached file, boot into CWM recovery, and flash this zip from within recovery.
Alternately, you can also download the attached Android Flasher and flash the recovery (extract the recovery.img from the zip file) using it. It's a fast and simple method to do it.
I'm feeling extra helpful today, so i'll type out another method... Use fastboot (i assume you know how to set it up, otherwise look at my signature for link) to flash the recovery using the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
DOWNLOADS:
Android Flasher
4EXTRecovery_v2.2.7_RC5_Flashable.zip
The recovery attached is not the touch version, its the most stable non-touch version. Once you are on it, you can later use the Recovery Control app to upgrade to the touch version.
Hope this will solve your problem.
If your phone has the latest HBOOT and unlocked with htcdev.com then you must use the fastboot flash method as exlained above.
But for Revolutionary the regular app method should work just fine.

acutally i dont know if i have made a mistake now or if t doesnt matter...
i sit on a HTC Desire GSM and not a HTC Desire S... does it matter???
and i have tried the option when you are booting into the CWM recovery 2.7.0.5 and try to flash the zip file from there but nothing works... it just says when im opening the 4ext updater apk that "Im up to date"...
i have rom manager installed and 4ext recovery updater, maybe there is some complications with them both installed???
really need to get the 4ext recovery... since i dont like the CWM and since i need the 4ext to install sebastiaaans rom....
and one more thing: you said that i lately can upgrade to the touch version, am i able to do this with my phone? PVT-1 Ship S-ON BRAVO

so why do you post it right here? I think in desire forums your chance too get a satisfying answer it's really higher. Btw I don't think that there is a really big difference, but who could tell you better than a desire (without s) owner?

Word of friendly advice : You shouldn't go around asking for help in forums for other devices as you may end up flashing something that could bugger up your phone... There is a HUGE difference between the Desire S and the Desire. Don't go by the similarity in their names... We're a very helpful bunch over here at the DS forums, but i would kindly request you to take this query to your own community which i'm sure will help you sort it out. (Or grab a Desire S and start roaming these lands!! ) - just kidding.
Better still, why not PM madmaxx82 and ask the creator himself regarding 4EXT issues.

Hi,
When I try to backup my current ROM using Clockwork Mod (which I installed before trying) I get a red triangle and I can't do anything. I am looking to flash a new ROM to my phone but I can't backup my current one which makes me think it is going to be difficult to flash a new one. Any help greatly appreciated
if i remember correctly, the red triangle is the stock recovery, which means you probably didn't successfully install clockworkmod
try flash recovery again, see what happens. also would recommend 4ext over clockworkmod
Ok thanks I will give this a go
I installed 4ext recovery and I still get the same issue. What do I do now?
Tried going through the bootloader but that still doesn't help

ClockworkMod Recovery! Well whenever the phone gets released. I attempted to build a test version of CWM at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863
Fingers crossed that it works.
But I will probably need someone to give me these two items once they get a phone to correct the configs.
Post the file /proc/partitions
Post the file /proc/mounts
For the adb commands. "adb shell" then "cat /proc/partitions" and "cat /proc/mounts" Should work.
EDIT: Thank you to he_stheone64 for giving me what I need above. Now I can make a fully working recovery.

just curious, to get updates
My device has T-Mobile UK firmware (1.28.61.7) and I will be looking to go back to stock soon to hopefully receive official 1.29 firmware update.
I need the appropriate recovery for my device but am not quite sure what that is. I have a nandroid but this was done in CWM after rooting.
Is the recovery of 1.29 different to 1.28 and do I need a T-Mobile specific recovery or is the generic recovery just the same?
If somebody could point me in the direction of the recovery I require it would be much appreciated.

I am trying to return my 1.28.61.7 device to stock using a rooted nandroid which I made without any other modifications. After many trials and tribulations, I managed to unroot by removing SuperSU and binaries but, after installing 'stock' recovery my device still says relocked and tampered and will not boot into recovery.
I am, however, able to perform a full wipe from within android though.
I would really like complete clarity on this if anyone can help me as I need to get back to stock to get an official update when it appears as there are no stock nandroids available or any RUU's for my device.

no problem, here is the US dev edition stock recovery-signed

Tampered showed @ hboot is because you have "unlocked" before
So If I have clockwork mod touch recovery installed and I want to go back to stock recovery without loosing my app and data I can just flash this in cwm?
