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 read a similar post to what I'm about to say, but no one answered their question so I'm posting mine. I have a rooted Captivate with Froyo. I installed ROM Manager, attempted to flash Clockwork Recovery and it now says that Clockwork is my current recovery. I tried to backup my current ROM and it went into recovery and then rebooted. Nothing is listed under Manage and Restore Backups. When I went to CyanogenMod.com to download their ROM, it said you can't flash Clockwork to Froyo. Is this true and if so, is there an easier way to flash Cyanogen other than flashing back to Eclair, flashing Clockwork, reflashing Froyo, and then installing Cyanogen?
Im having the same problem so i will bump this.
Same here...
I'm seeing same behavior. Did anyone solve this yet?

what does the error say?
most likely it was a bad backup and slim chance of restoration
did u do a full wipe before restoring?
Yes I did a full wipe before flashing and also before I tried to restore my black-up thru rom manager.I have flashed plenty of roms and this phone am not a total noob when it comes to this phone. I have never encountered this problem before. Before i tried going into recovery thru rom manager to restore back up thru CWm 4.0 etc, and it says I need CWM 5.0. I updated the rom manager to 5.0 etc and when I reboot and go into recovery (not thru rom Manager) and it says that it is the 4.0 etc version.Also is the 5.0 etc version blue? it jumps from 4.0 to 5.0 back to 4.0. This is a lil weird I went into recovery and did a restore from there and when I try in RM it comes up with error message Cannot restore cuz my CWm is 4.0 etc. thats when it jumps back from 5.0 to 4.0. I know this is confusing and by the way all the etcs you see are because I don't know the exact version. Any helps and thnx to whomever does.

You need to update thru NVFlash. Here is the link and everything should be fine after that. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054492
Thanks guys u rock. I got the new CWM on there for nvflash. Now I am moving my saved back up zipped file from downloads to CWM on sd card after I zip it, so well see how this goes right now. THanks again
With the G2X don't use rom manager for your backup/restore. Boot directly into the clockworkmod that you installed with nvflash and do the backup/restore from there.
Hey guys,
I searched around and only found some old posts for this topic.
I just bought this phone, I rooted it, simunlocked it, and added two day old CWM recovery. Its a S4 Canadian (Bell) version in case that helps..
Is there a way to apply the OTA update WITHOUT having to wipe my data and settings and reflashing a rom?
Hlep will be greatly appreciated!
THANKS :good:
I got the same thing going on. I have a TMOUS HTC One S stock with CWM Rooted and such. I just changed it back to the Stock recovery, but doesn't seem to help. Is there something else I need to do? Maybe I need to flash a newer recovery version?
I have the stock recovery from a MoDaCo topic I can't list because I don't have 10 posts yet.
its topic/353006-interim-clockworkmod-touch-recovery-for-the-htc-one-s-stock-download/ though.
Are you sure your Rom is absolutely stock. For example if the rom is tweaked in any way or if bloatware has been deleted then you won't recieve the update
Ok so I got the update to work. This is what I did: in CWM I backed up a nandroid. I flashed a stock BACKUP for the HTC One S (I moved the zip to the clockwork > backups folder on the sd card). Rebooted into bootloader, flashed a stock recovery from modaco, rebooted, ran the update (I had to update twice, from 1.53 to 1.84 to 2.35). Then I restored my original nandroid. Problem is, the update didn't stick. And now I'm getting an error when I try to turn on wifi. Any ideas? I feel like I got so close...
Tough to see what went wrong.
I had a brand new stock rom with no modifications.
Then I flashed stock recovery,
Did a root keeper (play store app)
Then did the update
And restored root.
Worked out fine for me!
I think you should flash a stock rom and not a backup..
i have a rooted Xoom MZ600 4G LTE, android 4.1.1, EOS nightly 139, the other day I mistakenly flashed my CWM to latest... now my CWM recovery wont read my SD card.... I'm reading a lot about reflashing my current CWM to older version, i'm very new in this hobby, can someone point to me the link to get the appropriate version of ClockworkMod verion and the step by step tutorial to reflash it back to older version... I tried doing it via GooManager , it's a no go, I get an error...thanks god, i did not brick my device... do I have to re-root my device again... I originally had it rooted by a friend who's in the Service (military) and not avaiable.... thanks in advance..... smilyize
problem solved !!!
nevermind....... I decided just to use TWRP .............. for me the interface is much better.......... smilyize
Yeah it is better in my opinion as well.
Motorola Xoom, CM10 Nightly
Hello, i previously recovered using xsball gingerbread guide, i thought id brave roms again and was using touch recovery that came with the guide. To help things a long i took backups and restored then when roms failed etc. this all went fine.
I thin thought, maybe its because im using touch that roms were failing so i installed non touch 5.0.2.0, took my backup and flashed my rom (CM10). This failed (bootloop) so i tried to restore my backup. CM repotred that the backup was successfull but now when i reboot im stuck at LG logo with all of the lights on and nothing happening.
I can get back into CWM can anyone suggest ANYTHING?
Maybe if someone could upload the same version of CWM touch that came with the GB guide i could flash that via CWM non-touch somehow?
can someone suggest ANYTHING to get my phoen to work again
Thanks (Desperate)
