move to sdcard/
go to recovery
make backup
flash rom (install zip from sd)
reboot
First install his rom then connect your phone to your computer and mount. Then put the rom in the internel SD card the one without avatar. Don't rename the file. Then boot into recovery and reinstall packages twice. Then you will be in clockwork wipe factory reset and cache. Then go to install zip from SD card, then choose zip from SD card and find the rom. Don't forget to backup your apparently.

What is the point of making a backup? I mean, you can always go to stock using odin and the JFD tar and pit.
Is backup just to save all your personal files, pics, music, etc?

I have heard this over and over. I only have one question that I could not find anywhere. Do you need to rename the "Ginger_Clone_Final_R2.zip" to update.zip? Everytime I reboot into recovery and try and get ti to install, I get the same message over and over; something to the effect of package not found. Thanks

you don't rename it. maybe your choosing the update zip from sd. it should be choose zip file from sd card then you choose the custom rom you're flashing.

Yea, thanks. I thought that was what I am supposed to do. I don't have that option though. When I reboot into recovery (through ROM Manager or on my own) I only have the STOCK recovery options. For some reason, the Clockworkmod options are not showing up. I noticed this about a month ago. I will have to try and figure that out first. Thanks again.

Have you flashed clockwork recovery from rom manager? If so, when you get into stock recovery just hit reinstall packages to get to cwm. You may have to do that twice to get it to work. If it still doesnt work try reflashing cwm from rom manager.

I had been doing everything right. I had to roll back to CWM version 2.5 (I think it is about 3 or 4 versions earlier than the current one). No wonder they have been making so many updates over the past few days. Well at any rate, I wanted to ensure I wasn't doing anything wrong. i have done it before, but for whatever reason (now known to be CWM) it just wasn't working. I got it fixed and now have 2.3. I will install my apps including Titanium Backup and report any problems. I hope there are none; from what it sounds like, I will probably not have any, but only time will tell. Thanks for posting and confirming that I was not losing my mind.

Reboot into Download Mode, utilize Odin to flash back to JFD (directions in the Vibrant Bible sticky thread in the Dev forum), root, install ROM Manager, and then reinstall Bionix.

Find a copy of the update.zip from clockwork. Put this on your sd card (the internal one) and try the reinstall packages option.
If this doesn't work. Research odin and do a restore using it.

There is a file called update.zip that's created by ClockworkMod. There should be a few links on the net to help you out on where to download the most current version.

Did you put it on your internal sd card? If you can't boot you would have had to use ADB to push it there....
EDIT: Also, did you have a lag fix enabled, namely voodoo, before you tried to "restore"?
I have attached a copy of the update.zip for cwm vibrant and a copy of the files needed for adb. Let me know if you need help setting it up.
I can get into rcovery but I don't have the option to install from sd or make a backup. The options that I have are reboot, install packages, clear cache and there is on more I can't remember I don't have the phone with me. Install packages dies nothing but show that it can't find any update zip files. I think its not recognizeing my sd card. I have pics and music on my sd card and it works fine so I don't know what's going on.

Sounds like stock recovery. Did you download rom manager? Did you flash cwm recovery. If so reboot into recovery through rom manager
download ROM Manager, and click the first option, its like flash clockwork recovery, choose your device, and then it'll finish, then try going back there, and it should be in GREEN or something

I've done all of that. That's how I get in recovery. And its green writing. The weird thing is that I've been able to flash some roms before then I end up wanting to do something else so I use my backup and go back to stock. I did have some problems with the backup that I did and had to use odin to fix it. I then relized that I did not odin the update j16 file so I then did that. I've got the nero rom ready to go just can't get to the right recovery. I do have the clockwork recovery that I got with the rom manager.

Is there an "advanced" option?? If so go to that then you should see reboot recovery. Then you should see the install from SD card option. Also, try mounting your SD card to the computer. And try pulling out your battery while phone is still powered on.

If you are going into stock recovery after flashing CW Recovery from ROM Manager, you need to select "reinstall packages" in stock recovery (it may need to be selected twice). Then you'll go into CWM.
Also, don't delete the "update.zip" file on the root of your sd card...that's the CWM file, which is what is installing when you select reinstall packages.

How do I get the update zip back
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I think my problem is with the update zip. I downloaded the new nero b4 and when I look in my files I see it but I can't open or do anything with it. But if I look in astro I see it and I can do something with it. So its something to do with the file app. Its changing it to something that I can't do anything with. I go into recovery and reianstall packages and it looks like its working but then says aborted.

Download titanium backup free/pro, menu, more, create update.zip
Remove the old one before doing this.
Then flash clockwork recovery through rom manager, then try it

Go into ROM Manager and select "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery." That will put the update.zip file back on your sdcard.
It worked thank you guys.

So every time I wanna try out a new rom I always go back to stock just because it makes me feel better to start from scratch. But every time I do I have to do a complete wipe on my sd card before I can root. The update.zip file will still be there but I can't root unless I completely wipe the sd then reinstall the update.zip file. Any one know why that is necessary? It gets annoying having to either lose all my data or transfer it to my computer.

You dont have to wipe your SD card to root. Heck if you have the update.zip for clockwork you dont even have to root your phone again just reinstall packages twice and you will be in clockwork. Once you flash the ROM from there you'll have root (considering ofc that the ROM you flash is rooted).
You do NOT have to go back to stock everytime... read my guides. You really only need to do that if you have issues with the new rom. It takes me 30 minutes max to go from one rom to another and be set back up like normal (this includes downloading the rom).

So are you saying that even if I don't see the superuser app im still rooted if I can get into recovery from the stock rom? Id feel like an idiot if this whole time I was deleting and transferring files for no reason this whole time lol
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
You don't need root to load clockwork recovery, I often leave the update.zip for clockwork on my sd card and when I odin back to jfd I then reinstall packages from recovery, get into clockwork recovery and choose the zip I want to flash
I usually use z4 root when I need to root my phone on Eclair.
Im an idiot. I was only looking for the superuser app to know if im rooted or not

So i keep on getting this error when i'm trying to flash clockwork recovery. I'm on stock btw.
"Error while download from server. Please make sure that you have a stable internet connection, and that your SD card is inserted and has free space!"
I have a stable connection and my SD card is fine. So can anyone lend me the update.zip of the clockwork recovery?
found this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893824
geez. Thanks man!
I had the same problem and installed the update.zip as per the instructions, but ROM manager will not detect that Clockwork recovery is installed and will not let me install a ROM. What can be done in this case? Clockwork recovery is correctly installed and works when I go into recovery mode. I am on stock Eclair 2.1.29 JFD.
If you can get to recovery by normal means you can flash any rom you want aslong as that update has been installed. Thats what I did. btw rom mananger was down thats why it was acting funny.
I see. So I can just boot into Clockwork Recovery and select "Install from zip" and that will start the ROM installation?
Thanks.
Once that update.zip has been installed It should take you to the green clockwork mod recovery.
You can then find the option that says install zip from sd. It will let you pick any zip file
For instance I Have bionix v.zip on my sd card in a folder called zip. I will navigate to that folder and select that zip file then confirm the flash.
Awesome! Thanks man, got it to work too! Was freaking out last night haha.
I was also. Just a quick note If you keep that zip file on the root of your internal sd card You can always flash that and it will give you access to the green recovery menu. I do that Now instead of installing the root update. Then I can automatically flash any rom I want.
Yeah, problem is I got wiped so my files and I didn't backed up that .zip. I thought there was something wrong with my phone.

Thanks, this helped me recently.
Esp since Clockwork Recovery Mod doesn't seem to download anything no more...
Using XtreSoLite ROM on a Galaxy S5. When I do a TWRP backup (default settings) and I target my external SD card (64GB SanDisk microSD), the backup succeeds and I can go back to the main TWRP menu and verify that the backup was created in a new folder called 'TWRP' on the SD card. However, once I boot into the system and get past the unlock screen, that TWRP folder is deleted from the SD card along with the backup.
All of the other files on the SD card are untouched, just anything to do with TWRP is removed.
Any idea what could cause this? I searched the thread for my specific ROM with no luck regarding this issue.
I have this issue as well running the stock rom. I also have the 64 gb card. Near as I can tell something about the way TWRP is writing the files to the file system (exfat) android doesnt like and corrects which removes the files. If I pull the card out of the phone before booting android I can see the files on the PC. The work around I'm currently using is to mount an external USB storage to do my backup, then copying the backup to the SD card in android.
..
Hey there guys...its happening to me as well and its annoying because you cant rely in your backups!
Any solution or just that SD take out workaround? Its kinda dangerous because you can corrupt the SD by doing this often!

I would say odins main use is for flashing stock tars after you get your phone stuck in brickloop after flashing something you shouldn't have :laugh:.......very useful tool I must say.

TWRP Backups being deleted at boot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
My solution for this error:
--Device S5 mini G800F
--TWRP 2.8.1
--MicroSD 64Gb
--TotalCommander for android instaled.
Step by Step:
1. Boot in recovery mode.
2. Create and save your backup into extSDCard (TWRP/backups folder).
* Example: extSDCard\TWRP\BACKUPS\14001308b6ffd4cc\2016-01-01--01-01-01 XXXXX.YYYYYYYYYYYYY
-- 2016-01-01--01-01-01 XXXXX.YYYYYYYYYYYYY = my last backup folder name created automatically by TWRP.
-- 2016-01-01--01-01-01 = backup date and time
-- XXXXX.YYYYYYYYYYYYY = phone and rom model/version
3. Open File Manager in TWRP and copy your backup folder (2016-01-01--01-01-01 XXXXX.YYYYYYYYYYYYY) from extSDCard to internal memory.
4. Restart your phone (system restart in twrp).
5. Open TotalCommander and navigate to extSDCard/backup folder (extSDCard\TWRP\BACKUPS\14001308b6ffd4cc)
6. Create new folder and rename it with your backup name folder. *Example: extSDCard\TWRP\BACKUPS\14001308b6ffd4cc\2016-01-01--01-01-01 XXXXX.YYYYYYYYYYYYY
7. Go to internal memory (copied backup folder) and copy all files to created folder in step 6.
8. Restart in recovery mode, run file manager in TWRP and delete backup folder from internal memory.
9. Restart your phone (system restart in twrp).
10. Finish.
