[Q] How to uninstall Clockwork Recovery 3.0.0.5 for HTC Dream/G1

Hello
I installed Clockwork Recovery 3.0.0.5 on my HTC Dream/G1, and I can not revert nor to radream 1.7 nor to clockwork-2.5.0.9-modaco-r2-blade.img...
Could someone help me to restore my system please?
Best regards,
Emmanuel

Firstly this is the wrong section, the fact you put [Q] in the title should have lead you to think maybe this belongs in the Q&A Section?
That said looks to me like you haven't got an S-Off hboot. I'm gonna presume you are running the new 2708 hboot and spl as most are now and that hboot doesn't allow fastboot flashing of recovery. Go to THIS thread and read the first post. Your answer awaits you there, even if you're on another hboot then you'll still find what you need there. Or you could of course use adb to install the new recovery or even terminal emulator, you can find all details in each respective recovery's threads.

if you can still use it, then reboot in recovery
adb shell mount /sdcard
adb push newrec.img /sdcard/newrec.img
adb shell
flash_image recovery /sdcard/newrec.img
reboot to the new recovery

Hello guys !!!
many thanks for your help !!!
I get back to a stable status, that's wonderfull (it is my professional mobile phone )
Have a good evening

Not sure, your bootloader is unlock when you're trying?
and the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery [COLOR="Red"]recovery.img[/COLOR]
recovery.img has to be spell exactly as the recovery image file you have.

Siret to intercept,
I have an HTC VILLEC2 ( now i know this) few days ago I have tryed to install an custom rom. Because I didn't know that my device is an S3 processor i proceed with unlocking my boot loader. That went well. I have tryed to install CWM. That went also well, but I can't start it.
For te moment the phone runns în stock firmware pretty good but do not allowed me to make any Up Date frm HTC Updat server.
The question is, it is possibe to reinstall the original CWM. Also where can I download it?
THX FOR ALL SUPPORT IN ADVANCE.

[Q] TWRP Install Fail

I have an unlocked, rooted 300T with JB which I flashed to 10.4.2.13 using the existing installation of TWRP which has now disappeared when booting+Vol Down. I do not seem to be able to re-install TWRP using fast boot as I get this message.

I have searched extensively and cannot find a similar issue, but without TWRP I cannot then flash a custom ROM...:crying:

Are you installing the jb compatible twrp? what happens when you try and boot recovery?

I have downloaded the 2.2.2 jb blob from here. When I boot into recovery & select RCK I get an android on his back with an exclamation mark in his stomach.

When you used twrp to flash stock it includes recovery which overwrites twrp. Go back to the instructions to fastboot twrp, do so and you should be good.
Good Luck!
Try a new download of twrp!
Reboot your pc, only plugin your asus and no other device, retry fastboot.
Forgot, if on dock remove from dock reboot pc and asus and try again.

Clearing cache maybe? Just a shot in the dark, never seen this one. I can tell you I flashed ota v13 and it blew away my recovery but I was able to get it back easily.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app

After following numerous google links - too many links fastboot, I found one resolution. Another device used on pc and usb drivers installed since last use of unit giving links error. Resolution was remove offending drivers, reboot pc and profit.
Good Luck!

I'm having a bit of a different problem. I have flashed twrp 2.2.2 several times and each time it says okay but it isn't updating it. I still have 2.2.1.5 installed.
Code I'm using...
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery tf300t-jb.blob
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It goes through the install and says OKAY at the end yet it doesn't actually update the recovery blob.

Blew away cache, used fastboot again on twrp.blob and got same install fail error message. However, on power on + vol down RCK now works with TWRP, which is kind of odd, but there you go. Thanks for all the suggestions...

glad you got it fixed

Three things come to mind.
1. Try to flash as twrp directions show; without adb reboot bootloader.
2. Verify you are trying to flash the proper version for your bootloader; ics or jb.
3. If the above two items fail redownload proper version for your boot loader and try again.
Note: The twrp page also shows how to flash with adb!
Good Luck!

Terminal Emulator is an easier way to flash TWRP imo. But hey.

I noticed that after I hit reply. I was using all of the correct TF700t TWRP and whatnot. I found this in a google search because it was similar to my issue. It turned out that even though I thought I had unlocked my device, it did not unlock. I fixed that and now I am all set.

The warning invalid state normally applies to the bootloader being locked make sure your bootloader is unlocked.

Try miktouch or another stock based ROM so you don't need to flash kernel
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Is there a particular miktouch I should try? Would the below link be good to try?(for some reason having hard time finding)
"cx.com/mycx/share/jzvMU-erEeGfjBICOBql1A/MikTouch-0.7-signed.zip"
And just follow the steps and flash it vs cm9, correct?

Any stock based ROM is easier to flash as you don't need to flash the kernel afterwards through fastboot. Also cm9 is one of the few Roms I have seen issues for people when trying to flash, granted it is one of the better Roms out there, but right now you are just trying to get this working again, so stick with easy.
And I would think that's a good link, but didn't check

installed miktouch 07...i installed the zip from sdcard and it installed and then it rebooted the phone. Stuck at mytouch4g logo screen, left it on this screen 20+ minutes. I took battery out and turned on with the same result.

any suggestions on trying something else?

On some of my Linux distros I would have to use fastboot flash with a ./ before it would work.
./fasboot flash boot boot.Img
I have no idea why it was like this but it helped me a fee times on the DS. If its anything else I'd have no idea, I haven't messed with this since I sent mine off to a XDA user here.

You said you are able to get into recovery? Try factory resetting there

Download this 1.44.1107 S-Off PG59IMG Hboot. Rename it to PG59IMG.zip. Send it to the sdcard, and reboot into the bootloader. It will then be installed automatically. This may or may not solve the problem. Try flashing a ROM now.

dont you need to be locked to do this? i've tried "fastboot oem lock" but it has an error about too many links and the phone shuts off and it shows that it is still unlocked. I tried the PG59IMG.zip anyway and it said parsing and went right back to hboot within a second.. Flashed miktouch rom. Restarted phone, still just stuck on logo screen.

What do you see in the bootloader? Has something changed? Try flashing a recovery this time. The latest Clockworkmod should be fine. Then see what happens.

I don't see any differences in the bootloader. Is there something specific you think may have changed.
Do you want me to try to reflash the cwm 5.0.2.7 version(currently loaded) or a different version(I didn't see a newer version for 4g slide)?

I think when you flash a recovery and you boot into android, android overwrites the custom recovery with the stock one. Try to boot to recovery without booting in android.
