Orange is cwm mtd and you won't ever use that on the infuse, it oases a different type of scripting, it I'd typically used to flash CM7 but our CM7 uses a themed version that it's blue I believe (haven't flashed it so I dunno)
You would want cmw for the i9000 non mtd (green) for initial flashing ( get it through ROM manager) but if you flash a custom ROM or kernel you will likely have red cwm which is modded and themed cwm for use with voodoo lagfix. It will be baked into the kernel and totally replaces 3e recovery (blue)

I did the reg i9000 thru rom manager. I didnt go mtd. After i did it i didnt have recovery. So one user said to reinstall packages so i did and got orange. Im on stock rooted rom. Not a custom rom yet. The guys in miui said blue or orange is ok to flash miui. Idk

Maybe they changers the color, idk?? I never use cwm through ROM manager. I skip right to the voodoo kernel through heimdall. (no need to root or change recovery)

I've never had orange... I typically go straight to green from stock after replacing the recovery using root explorer, using rom manager to flash i9000, rebooting to cwm, and wiping the caches.

Personally I haven't. I always flash from red voodoo. But I have heard its fine.

ive never been very successful flashing with green or blue, Ive always uses red and works great every time (for me at least) from sock i just root, install community kernal with shs kernal flasher from market and let the purty voiced lady do her stuff, after words you will have red recovery and flash away

Heres the link I use to flash from green to red in case you need it;

Where it says "CWM Installation Instructions." It's never failed me.

[Q] Red Voodoo CWM?

I keep reading in different places about a red voodoo cwm...? And yes, I know the rules, I have searched and searched the forum and threads... how do I install this version of CWM? I've used Krylon360's CWM to no avail. (Can't backup roms, flashing = softbricks, Odin back to KD1).
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App
the Red CWM is only included in the Bali kernel, as it is used for Voodoo tweaks.
In the future this should go in the general forum, as it's a question.
So how do you get this? I'm having the same problem. With cwm4 it doesn't wipe... with 3.x.x I get soft brick everytime even when I change the mounts. Going on the fifth time I have to odin...
You have to look in. The dev section that says in the thread title bali/voodoo (CWM)
The orange CWM was **** and didn't work at all but voodoo does

How to install CWM on stock kj6?

Does anyone know how to install CWM on stock kj6? I don't want to use the custom kernel. Tried copying the recovery and update.zip but no go. Getting the signature error. Not sure what to try next.

Don't think you can have clockwork mod without a modded kernel on gingerbread.

Krylons method was for froyo. Your gonna have to go with the modded kernel to get cwm.

It's not kj6.
Also, my last attempt to use one of these kernels wasn't very successful. Had a couple of little glitches here and there and it drove me nuts.
Now the phone works perfectly on a rooted stock kj6 with junk removed, so I don't feel like risking it, especially not having CWM to backup the stock config.
+1
I am also on stock Gingerbread, rooted, and happy with it. I'd like to install CWM *before* I start mucking about with my ROMs. ROM Manager claims to support it, but it didn't list my phone in its detected devices and then I saw here that one shouldn't use it anyway so I uninstalled it.
So what's the easiest/noobiest way to install CWM on my T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4g 2.3.6 rooted?
Heindall.... With the the kj6 kernel in the development forum.

How about you develop a new kernel? All we got is drhonks kj1 and bhundven kj6, both customs... Wait... How you plan to get cwm if you dont "custom" a kernel? Interesting, huh?
You don't need cwm to have an easy way of fixing roms if anything goes wrong, theres always odin and heimdall.

Man you're an arrogant dude. People ask for some help and you tell them to dev a new kernel! Put you're money where your mouth is.
As for the OP I think you get the idea. It's either custom or no go.

Flashing CMW

I have a rooted sga4g that I just cant get cwm to flash on it I used the one click method and in cwm this is what i get
Do not use rom manger it doesn't work with our phone. Look for one of the guides or download a kernel that has cwm and flash it with sgs kernel flasher that you download from the play store

I was wondering if that would actually work I'm glad to hear it does would it work if I use sgs kernel flash on 2.2.1?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA
It'll flash, and then your phone won't boot. .
If you want find one of the froyo kernels. Look in the bible thread.

No it wont work he needs to update to antonx's kernel first. Read his op he has CWM 3.xxx and that will not let you upgrade to cm7.

The wiki says to use 5.0.2.x because 3.x.x.x versions DO NOT work. You're giving the wrong advice again.

But the first time you flash it,doesn't it update it to blue, and then you can use that to flash cm7, right?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
It flashes directly into the ROM and boots you CM7. Maybe you should try what you're recommending to do before you try giving people advice, you're relaying it by the way you understood it which isn't necessarily the way it actually works.
Go back to stock, try to flash CM7 from CWM 3.
Go back to stock, try to flash CM7 from CWM 5.0.2.X
Come back when you know what happens and you'll see why the instructions in the wiki are the way they are.
When you're in doubt about giving advice, read the official instructions. We try to make it as easy as possible for everyone to do this.
mierkat, to make things simple there are 2 different version of "RED" CWM. The old version was back on Froyo and the early gingerbread leak custom kernels. We have moved on from then, and there is a NEW version of the 5.0.x.x CWMs. This is because bhundven's sms kernel's and fb's sms kernels used them. On all the current-ish GB roms like vb fb and other new ones, you have 5.0.x.x. So you are safe if you flash CM7-CM9-AOKP-AOSP by erikmm-other TKA-other TNo0b-etc... from these newer Touchwiz GB roms. The best way to check is by booting to recovery. If you have 3.x, then I recommend downloading Valhalla-Black by FBis251 which can be found in the general section. After flash, without rebooting, go to the main CWM home menu, then go to advanced, then choose reboot recovery. You should now be in a 5.0.x.x CWM. Here you can have fun!
EDIT: FB beat me to it
I see, sorry about that. Was confused because i thought the red was always 3.x and blue was 5.0.x.x. When i flashed cm7,i just followed the instructions in the wiki

Coming from Nexus s, new to G2X

Hi All,
just got a second line for work and i bought a g2x. got it rooted but haven't flashed a recovery yet.
is it true i can't just flash it via clockmod? on cyanogenmod's website it specifically says its the way to flash recovery but ive noticed in a few posts here that it will not flash recovery. i can really use some lights on this guys.
Thanks in advance.

To flash recovery the correct way, head on over to here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847
If by clock mod you mean ROM manager, you can. But you will get your phone bricked if something goes south.
This phone is unbrickable, almost. Nvflash cwm on it and flash roms via it.
Search is your diaper friend.

So yes, and no...but yes. Confused yet?
You CAN use Rom Manager to flash a recovery and do backups / flash roms. The only issue comes up when you bork something up, and by you I mean rom manager of course, and you get a boot loop and have to pull the battery to get into recovery....you can't. It's got to do with the partitions RM uses I think. If you read enough you'll see that RM "fake flashes" CWM to your phone and you can't access it if it gets borked. Soooo you use Nvidia's NVFlash utility to flash CWM to your phones recovery partition. Then you're good to go. If you dig up the old CM7 thread, Cyanogen basically said that NVFlash replaces Fastboot for the G2x, but he uses RM from then on out.
Sooo use TGA_Gunnman's tool linked in the post above to install CWM the first time, then use RM is you so choose too. FWIW I've never used RM.

Thank you! got it now
i've been reading and trying the ICS roms, none seem to be as stable as a gingerbread rom.
what are you guys using?

I don't understand why people tell you to use ROM manager.
Only use nvflash to flash clockwork, and ONLY use ROM manager to rename your backups and to boot into recovery. Never use ROM manager to flash ANYTHING.
ICS ROMs are all pretty much betas for this phone. If you want stable stay with stock or cm7.

No, you can find the v6 super charger script instructions in Android hacking and general section I think.
