Cmw v 5.0.2.7 - T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide

It won't let me back up or anything. Should I go back to v 4.4.0.9 and if I need to how. Please talk in English or explain the technical words.

You have. When you rooted your phone. Remember....just put your
"android-sdk-4windows" in your windows path to make this easier to remember from now on. Then you can take your "recovery.img" & place it in your windows root directory. [ C:\ ] (easier to find & delete once you've used it).
Plug in your phone, bring up a command window (cmd in the start command for windows) & type 'cd\' at the cmd line to take you back to the 'path'. There you type...
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery 'filename'.img
fastboot reboot
It'll tell you what it's doing and you'll see when you're done. NOOO problems.

Easy way. Download ROM manager via Play. Open it. It might ask you on 1st boot to flash CWM recovery. If it does let it flash it for you. Otherwise use the flash CWM option in the app. It does it all for you.

Then again......like Agent said....there IS the easy way. LOL

Are you backing up from ROM manager or from Recovery? If you are working from ROM Manager make sure that any spaces beteween the letters of named files are filled in with underscores. Such as CM9_Taco_Salad_on_a_Stick_Edition. If you can't get it to work from recovery you got problems and definitely need to reflash from ROM Manager.

Rom Manager & Mytouch 4G Slide

Okay, is anyone else having a hard time using Rom Manager using it's features due to the fact that the MT4GS is NOT listed as one of the models. I mean, how am I supposed to enter manual flash override if I can't even select MY phone model. What are WE supposed to do???
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda premium
we don't have an official recovery yet, so we have to use Modaco 4.0.0.9 for the time being..
WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT FLASH THE RECOVERY FOR ANOTHER PHONE..
That's a lil late however, I think I already did that, now I can't even enter recovery mode anymore, and when I power on while holding the volume button down. I get same message about trying to load and then it says no image. Even then if I try to press recovery I get stuck on the white t-mobile/HTC screen. Mt only option if to reboot. I'm st my wits end. Should I just Unroot and then just Root back again?
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda premium
YES flash the PD15IMG file and start over from scratch with revolutionary and then upgrade to modaco's 4.0.0.9 recovery. There is no support for the MT4GS in ROM Manager and it's not safe at all to flash anything that's designed for another phone unless you want problems! Good luck!

There's probably an easier way. Download the modaco recovery zip, unzip it and grab the img file and rename it to recovery.img. Then reboot into the bootloader and use fastboot to flash the img. That should do the trick.

Just want to say thank you and I'm going to donate some coffee cash to you later. I followed your method of copying/transferring recovery image through terminal emulator on my phone and now it works PERFECTLY again. I think I accidentally flashed a different version of recovery for a different phone model through Rom Manager. So I learned my lesson. I also spoke with Koush yesterday and he assured me that a fix is on the way for the MT4GS, which is great to hear, otherwise, it's pretty much useless to us.

Where on my SD card am I supposed to stick the "recovery.img" file so that FASTBOOT will see it? I am having no luck finding/loading the IMG file....
I got it figured out. NEVERMIND =)
1) Download MoDaCo's recovery to your computer.
2) Download the Fastboot binary for your computer.
3) I'm assuming you have ADB set up on your computer, so type in "adb shell reboot bootloader".
4) When your phone is in the bootloader, type in "fastboot flash recovery */path/to/recovery.img*" and then "fastboot reboot".
5) You should be able to boot into recovery now.
Thank You Sir. I had already figured it out. I felt so stupid when I did too... It happens though... I guess I should have read more.
Yea I did this by accident once, flashed the MT4G recovery through Rom Manager. I suggest just go ahead and dont install that app at all, you cant really do anything with it anyway since most of the options are unavailable unless you flash CWM recovery through the app. Also, if you are using Unity Rom, CWM reads your device as a HTC Sensation, so dont be fooled. Once you flash the 4009 originally you should be good, if you accidentally flash another phones recovery, none of your nandroids will work

HELP!!! Clockworkmod not flashing properly Brainmasters ICS and Linux Ubuntu 11.10

I flashed latest clockwork mod after installing brainmasters ics tweaked. When i noticed my mms wasnt working i decided to re flash another rom but when i booted into recovery it got back into fastboot mode and tells me "no boot or recovery img"
I have re flashed all versions through rom manager but they wont stick. I tried to push it with fastboot and my computer but my Ubuntu 11.10 wont recognize my Ns4g. I installed all the android sdk, adb, and fastboot files but when I type ./adb devices its doesn't come up with my device. ./fastboot flash boot recovery3101.img doesnt work either.

1st. post in the correct section. This way you can get your answer quicker and you're not annoying everyone.
2nd. Find yourself a WINDOWS PC and install android SDK and all drivers for your phone to be recognizable. Then follow one of the posts in here to flash recovery.
You could also install ROM manager from the market and use it to flash recovery through it but its always good to have a proper SDK setup for this type of emergency.
This has happened to me before and I have fixed it by flashing the latest cwmr multiple times.
Try using a different USB cable if your com still doesn't recongize it.
PS now I use twrp and i like it a lot better
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
I didnt see any other NS4g section. Sorry bud.
Would flash image gui work well to flash twrp?
When i use rom manager it says successfully flashes rom but then i reboot and get the sane no boot or recovery img. I dont have access to a windows pc...
Can a mod please move this to the nexus help section?
As stated, reboot from and get rom Manager from market. Try reinstalling recovery or scroll down and there is an option to use older versions and flash an older version.

Im okay with starting over but I cant even get my computer to recognize my NS4G. I'm using Ubuntu 11.10 and I have Android sdk and fastboot on my computer but when I boot my phone into fastboot it isn't recognized by my computer. All "./adb devices" or "./fastboot devices" brings up is nothing!
If I can get my Linux machine to recognize my phone I would gladly return to stock unrooted and start over.
Flash twice in rom manager. See if that changes anything. Don't reboot between just one after another. Also, in rom manager hit menu and clear download cache before you try flashing.

I've had this happen to me several times. The problem happens any time I use an app (i.e. Rom Manager or Flash Image GUI) to flash a new recovery.
The only way I've been able to resolve it is to
1. Flash cwm 3.1.0.1 with fastboot
2. Go into recovery and flash cwm 5.0.2.0.
3. DO NOT update CWM when relaunching Rom Manager or like app.

Please read before posting... this is posted all over.
Put the boot.img in the same PC folder that u have the fastboot.exe program in. Turn on USB debugging on your phone. Make sure drivers are installed and reboot phone into bootloader. Plug phone into PC and push the power button to go into fastboot. Open cmd window on PC. Navigate to the folder containing fastboot and the boot.img (ex: cd C:\Android\platform-tools)
Then type the following command in cmd window
Fastboot flash boot boot.img

First I recommend you install TWRP recovery. This will take away the need to fast boot flash boot.img separately. You can install TWRP by getting Beta Goo Manager app from play store and using it to install twrp.
Next you download Axiom S 1.5 and flash it. Go to Goo Manager find compatible roms, choose "itsmikeramsey" and you will see Axiom S 1.5 download and also "add ons" downloads.
Download rom zip and choose add on. I suggest an eqs battery % ics.zip. It will give you ICS blue theme. Then flash using Goo manager. Make sure rom zip gets flashed first.
They mention Zydroid base because the Axiom S 1.5 Mdj overclocked kernel has some bugs so just find Axiom stock kernel(same as Zydroid) and flash it also.
I hope this is clear enough. One thing you must do when learning to flash roms is to research as much as you can and follow steps. GL

if you want to go thru exact steps for cwm we can, but you need adb/fastboot working on your pc, and knowing how to use them. I won't have time tonite for a tutorial on that, but plenty of info out there.
also on phone make sure under settings/power fastboot is unchecked. if you are going to use fastboot to flash cwm you need usb debugging check under settings/dev options
easier way is to flash twrp recovery
their thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677670
mainly just download goo mananger from play store
open it
tap on menu, mine is the 3 dots
tap on Install OpenRecoveryScript
follow directions
with twrp you can flash radios and most roms without flashing kernel thru fastboot
always have a nandroid and sdcard bu before doing these things
Yes, I've done that already uh sing hassoons tool kit. Probably just stick with reg cwm. Not on recovery much anyways. Have used cwm for a couple years. I tried the twrp rec. For a few minutes.

Hi I have used the tool kit, but some of the recoveries there don't work. I found this file online after searching and it does work with my HTC One S. This is touch recovery, pretty good, actually.
You can just flash the .img file through:
a) adb command(fastboot), might be faster for you.
or
b) you can put this file(extract it first) into the "data" folder of the tool kit, but you will have to edit bat file to be able to integrate your new .img file with the UI. I did this way.
This is the link where I got the above recovery. http://www.modaco.com/topic/353006-...ch-recovery-for-the-htc-one-s-stock-download/
This link also have stock .img you might need in the future. I tried both the recovery and stock files, they both worked well.
See if this will help you out.

You really won't have any problems. I promise. It flashes just like any other version of CWM thru adb. Just download it from my "Tools" thread, place it where you normally flash a file from, rename the file to boot.img. Then from your command window on your computer you just do the following string of commands:
reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
Remember? :good:
flash boot?

Hang on, isn't he trying to flash his recovery? I've never done it through fastboot, but I can't help but think that flashing a recovery image to the boot partition won't turn out well... There is an option in fastboot to flash recovery, but again, I've never used it.
The way I've always flash recovery images is (in terminal emulator or ADB)
flash_image recovery /sdcard/name-of-recovery.img
As I was looking up this command, I saw someone (well, not just anyone, kornyone) suggest using ROM Manager... Although you would, of course, have to flash an older version of CWM.

It's an Android command, you need to either run it through ADB Shell or through the Terminal Emulator (You ran it directly in the Windows command line)
Do you have ADB and fastboot setup? If not, go download Android SDK from Google and get it installed. (Be sure to install Platform Tools as well as Tools)
If you haven't setup the Android SDK before, you'll need to install the Java SDK too.
The second two commands he provided are not ADB commands, they should be run directly from the directory where fastboot is installed, which is the Android SDK Install location\platform-tools.
The default Android SDK install location (as of the new version I downloaded yesterday) is C:\Users\(Your Name)\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk . The old default location was C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk . I like that one better. You can use whichever you wish, just be sure you remember where it is.
I can't post links, otherwise I'd link you to a guide. Sorry :/

Before you can run that string I told you about you have to tell your system it is an ADB command. ACTUALLY it's like this:

After that it tells you "writing image" then the time and then something to the effect of "transfer complete"? If it does then somehow you've gotten the images confused and renamed the 5.0.2.7 image and put that one in your flashing folder and not the 4.0.0.9 image.
It's always your choice what you run on your phone but I still don't understand your opposition to the official CWM release. ANYway....Good Luck in your attempt.

What I'm trying to find out is how in the crap you got 5.0.2.7 on your phone to start with. If you flashed it thru terminal emulator you can put 4.0.0.9 on there the very same way. If you flashed it thru ADB you can put 4.0.0.9 on there the very same way. See what I'm saying? Have you ever flashed anything or did you get it on there thru maybe Rom Manager. I'm just looking for a clue. SEE? I know you're having a problem but we need to more than "it's not working".

I am running 5.5.0.4 and ROM manager reports the version as 5.0.2.7. Seems to work fine here.
