Clockworkmod recovery - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, so today I tried to update my cwmr from version 3 to 5. In rom manager it says 5.0.2.1 but when I boot into cwmr it still says 3. Is it supposed to be like that?
Thanks.

Stay with tenfars recovery.
The ROM Manager version is still not recognized an external sd card and can't data/factory reset. (from what written here).

No, you will get errors with backup and restore.
Is Tenfars recovery the whole package or are some parts borked like rom manager? And if so, what parts?

all of tenfars options in the recovery menu work correctly, it does not have an app once the phone is fully booted though

getting clockworks mod to work

I've flashed djp952's geewiz 1.1.1 and I'm VERY happy with the performance of it so far.
few things, its got clockworks on it....supposedly.... downloaded rom manager and flashed clockworks through there and when i reboot, its just the standard 3e recovery mode. Along with that comes all the "signature verification..blh blah blah"
so how exactly then am i supposed to get clockworksmod working on this girl?

i found similar advice somewhere else....and when I tried the custom recovery that they gave, it was a voodoo that locked my phone into the voodoo recovery...and i had to start this damn process all over again....
any suggestions for a good custom recovery?

Installing recovery issues

I tried installing cwm with rom manager and when I attempt to boot into recovery I am at the android screen with a triangle. I then used rom manager to flash rom racers cwm and I thought it was successful but I got the same screen when booting into recovery. So I used goo manager to flash TWRP. Same issue when booting into recovery. I am unlocked and rooted. Any ideas on what I could be doing wrong?

Here's an idea - stop using ROM manager!
How about you try flashing recovery using more traditional methods, like fastboot? That hardly ever fails.

I'm was just following the directions in the thread for installing cwm. The directions are dated since this is an older device. That's why I asked the question. TWRP is the recovery of choice for me on my GS II.

Did you delete (or backup) install-recovery.sh from /system/etc? If not, then that is most likely causing your problem. See the "Miscellaneous" section of this 2nd post from romracer's thread.

CWM

Hey so I'm a converted apple user and I'm having problems with cwm. So I'm rooted and every time I install cwm it gives me the notification that it was successful but when I boot into recovery it is still the stock recovery.
