I was wondering which version of CWM recovery is everyone using? The threads don't really answer the question and it seems people arnt sure which version to use. So if anyone has the answer, please post and give a link. Almost all CWM recoveries I have used are broken. Either in part or totally.

I just flashed 3.0.2.8 V2 from navenrobs ext4 formatter thread. Seems to work welk with OTB 1.5 kernel. Backup, restore and wiping all work. I havnt tried adb yet.

So I'm really new to custom ROMs and recoveries, and I have a few questions. I already flashed ClockworkMod, but if I want to get rid of it, is deleting the update.zip all I have to do? And if I were to make a backup and then flash a custom ROM, but decided to go back to my recovery, it would be exactly like it was before flashing the custom ROM, correct? I think that's about it, thanks for taking the time to read and answer.
First flash the correct kernel (2.1 or 2.2 ) of the one used for your backup. Then restore. Then delete update.zip
After that it will be how you had it

I think in this case doing you would also need to reset the phone and do a cache wipe as well then reboot and it would see as stock
So how would I get my hands on the stock kernel and flash it?

So I haven't had access to a computer the past few days, but how would I flash the stock kernel from the Bible thread? Is it just in an update.zip?

From your phones browser download the kernel. Once in recovery locate the kernal on your INTERNAL sd card and flash it like you would a rom. Hope that helps

My Photon is rooted, unlocked, CWM 5.0.2.8, Running CM 7 NIGHTLY 7/22. I wanted to switch to MIUI 2.7.27 Official Port for the Photon. Downloaded the Zip and GAPPS for the ROM, Nandroid Backup, Cleared Data/Factory Reset, Formated /Data, /System, /Cache, Cleared Delvik Cache and The Flashed The MIUI zip TWICE... went REALLY fast only showed MIUI Logo froze and then said rom completed. Flashed The Gapps and Rebooted... it stayed on the Motorola logo with Unlocked on the top for a whole day... i really want to switch to the MIUI Rom.... what am i doing wrong?
miui uses an installer that requires a rom to be installed on the phone. you wiped the system. don't wipe anything before installing. you can do that in the installer.
there are three files to flash. base, options then themes. it's a great rom. you'll enjoy it.

Bump... Anyone?
Sent from my MB855 using xda app-developers app
The zip on miui.us is only the ROM. You should be able to flash it but you have the wrong version of cwm. You need to have either jokers recovery v3, twrp, or cwm 5.0.2.7. 5.0.2.8 is from ROMmanager and doesn't work for any ics roms

Why don't you flash a rom that you can flash from CWM and then flash MIUI?
You could reinstall CM7 or AOKP.
Once installed run the MIUI installer (without wiping anything before starting the installer), and then install Gapps. You should then be good to go.
Also, I think you should spend some more time reading about what you're doing. It seems that you may be on the edge of not knowing what you're doing. I'd suggest (at a minimum) the first 3 posts in the MIUI thread should be understood in detail before doing this again.
In the stated version of cwm or do I need the old one

I'm not sure. I run AOKP. I think if you've got jokers revision 3 of CWM that you're fine.
I'm on 5.0.2.7-photon3. I think you're one release newer, but make sure it's joker's version and you should be alright.
Check out qbking77 on YouTube. He has install vids for most of our roms.

I wouldn't use that. Watch QBKing77's video. He'll walk you through it. I'd put CM7 back on and go from there.
His directions are awesome. That was a good idea!

Get jokers recovery from Jokersax.com it "should" solve your issues

OK, I'm hoping a late night and blindness are just setting in or that I'm just being dumb but...
I don't see a thread for CWM or any info on where/how to get CWM and get it installed on the Player 5.0.
Searching CWM was mostly useless, as it's in every other post. Searching recovery was similarly fruitless.
Any help?
Install a custom kernal, and you'll get cwm.

You have already asked this question in the sudden death thread and got an in depth answer.
Here, I've copied and pasted it again for you

Reply:
CWM is a recovery. PhilZ is a recovery that's based on CWM. So it's capable of pretty much everything CWM is, and more. Hence your backups should be restored without any trouble, as long as the CWM version PhilZ is based on can do it. You have one /recovery partition. You either install CWM or PhilZ or TWRP or whatevertheeff else (this is in response to "Do I still need CWM?").
PS: Please clean up your posts, you're almost polluting the thread!
Why are you asking it again? And not only that but making a new thread for it!
Surely the best place to ask is actually in the PhilZ recovery thread.........once.

I've read of some issues with TWRP 2.5 flashing new mods when using ViperLTE. How can I revert back to an earlier version if this should become an issue for me? Does anybody have a link for an earlier version that is still trouble free? I can only find 2.5...Thanks.

When you move between different recovery versions, you aren't "upgrading" or "downgrading". You simply replace the old with the new. There is a link in the main TWRP thread to the fireball page at teamw.in. Older versions can be found there.
What's the easiest way to replace it? I downloaded the .img file for 2.3. Do I have to use my computer or is there a method using just my phone?

There are multiple ways to install a recovery, all of them are are in TWRP original post under development. If you have any questions just pm me. I'll help as much as possible
The issue is NOT the recovery build.
I flashed Venom with TWRP 2.5.0.0 just fine.
