Ok i would like to kno if there's a method on the lg p500 for updating the custom recovery clockworkmod from the phone for example passing to 5.0.2 to 5.0.2.7 without using LGMD or a software like ROM Manager...so a way through the actual recovery for updating itself or through the emulator terminal.

Well, most people update their recoveries through normal flashable zips.
You just flash it using the old recovery, reboot it and you will see the new one.
There is a list of flashable recovery zips here, but it's a bit outdated:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065197
Here you can also find the new Amonra 3.06 (the best IMO): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19885521&postcount=292
If you want I can make you a flashable zip of the new CWM 5.0.2.7 as well. Just let me know.

Or just flash using the Flash Image GUI App... its in my signature...
its an app that flashes kernels and recoveries without booting to the recovery... you dont even need a flashable zip... just choose your recovery.img file and select Flash... n u have a new recovery...
WRONG SECTION BTW...!
Found something ..... at download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/ there was a cwm 5.0.2.7 zip ( for p500) downloaded it and it had META-INF so is it a flashable zip...

How did you flash the CWM recovery?
with rooting guide. After this i tried to rflash it with ROM manager. From rom manager i can reboot into recovery (CWM) fine. But not from hboot.. (it will be loaded system android recovery)
i read smth in threade for some another phone, that there is two files, which need to be removed via adb.
So... if it's right - what files exactly ?
Uhm, are you S-OFF?
How do you mean stock recovery?
You can't flash any recovery if your not S-OFF most recovery's are fake flash recovery's which is just almost the same except you need adb or a zip file on your SD.
(if you don't know what S-OFF is, search the development section(explaining wouldn't be as good and as complete)
i'm s-on
so without s-off i can't use full functional ?)
Use fake flash as stated before. There's not much profit from S-OFF unless you're a dev, or you need to write files to /system on-the-fly.

Ya, search for the CWM 3 Update.zip in dev-section, push it on the root of your SD and start into stock recovery. Now push vol-up+power and navigate with the volume keys to flash update.zip now you are in CWM without starting the app.
Ps: you have to rename the downloaded recovery file to update.zip

Download the attached file, name it update.zip, place it in the root of your sdcard and like stated above, u're ready to go.
Just run the "apply sdcard:update.zip" and u'll boot right into CWM!

Taken from the guide I posted in my OP of the Flash Image GUI EVO 3D thread:
HTC Unlock - Hboot 1.5 Users Guide for ROMs with a Kernel (boot.img file):
1) Unlock using HTC method for Hboot 1.5 users
2) Load this application, Flash Image GUI, onto the device, either through the Market or the link provided in this OP.
3) Download ROM .zip file to the sdcard on the device.
4) Open up Flash Image GUI, select Browse and select the ROM .zip file, downloaded to /sdcard in the previous step.
5) Flash Image GUI will provide a warning, reminding that the ROM .zip file will *need* to be flashed in the custom recovery afterward.
6) Flash Image GUI will index the full ROM .zip file searching for the kernel and kernel modules. Once located, the Flash Image button should be enabled.
7) Select the Flash Image button and Flash Image GUI will load the kernel modules and kernel from inside the ROM zip file.
8) Select reboot recovery.
9) Inside the custom recovery, load/flash the ROM zip file.
10) Reboot to normal Android mode and all should work including Wifi!

If you boot into the recovery, use the same method as used for the su-2.3.6.3.zip for the ROM .zip file and it will load.
The confusion occurs if the ROM contains a kernel. If so, Flash Image GUI can be used with the guide I posted above.
Alternative methods involve using fastboot to load the recovery, such as: fastboot boot c:\recovery.img
If that doesn't answer your question, feel free to post back! Thanks for the support!
This is what happens:
1.- Go to open flash GUI and starts.
2.- now kernel is preselected and chache and dalvik too.
3.- i press browse button select meanromv2.17.651.5.zip
4.- it says is a too large file for recovery or kernel image.
5.- it asks if it is a valid ROM zip file and it can locate kernel modules etc.
6.- i press yes and it says extracting zip file: meanrom.zip locating for kernel modules, peleas be patient, etc.
7.- extracted zip file in Application data.
8.- kernel continues preselected and cache too.
9.- what is the next? Press flash? And then? Reboot lnto recovery and navigate to zip file and press power button to install? Wipe data?
PD: As far as i know the kernel from the Stock and this ROM is the same. Thanks.

Steps 7 and 8 are where more detail is needed.
Although, all this confusion might be avoided by answering one question: Does this ROM contain a kernel? If not, you can skip using Flash Image GUI and directly load the ROM from the custom recovery, since you mentioned it is compatible with stock kernel you're currently using.
If this ROM does contain a kernel then answer to all questions in number 9 should be Yes. You'll know more about the kernel included in the ROM as Flash Image GUI adds three lines of text above the Flash button detailing where the kernel was located inside the ROM .zip file and what type of kernel setup the ROM is using.
Hope that helps!

So instead of using rsd to go back to stock, we can flash this as we would a custom ROM?

no, these zips update your cwm/twrp recovery to the latest version. if you want to avoid using rsd, make a nandroid of your stock unmodified system.

heh, well you got the image straight from the source, shouldn't have any problems with it. the ones in the zip files are unmodified except for being renamed to generic "recovery.img" (so i don't have to modify the updater-scripts for each one).
actually, just realized that twrp for the x still shows as 2.6.3.0, i was thinking of the new razr m twrp which does show 2.6.3.2. you can tell it's updated by the haptic feedback though.

Thank you. I figured it was updated because of the new vibration under settings.
Been driving myself nuts. I fastbooted it through fastboot, mfastboot, and mxfastboot.
Went back to hashcodes 2.6.3.1 then back.
Thank you for confirming.
Edit: DHacker just confirmed on twitter that he forgot to update a script so it will show 2.6.3 but all is well.

I've never flashed a recovery through a recovery. I've only ever used ADB. You can do two things.
1) Extract the zip file to remove the recovery img
2) If the OP doesn't mind me posting this you can go to DHacker's files and get the CWM recovery img he has there.

Hi All,
I've been a ClockworkMod Recovery user since I started with Android devices and never had a problem so I'm still happily using it today. The issue is that I can never seem to find a flashable version of the latest version so I'm making this post to provide that if anyone is interested. I'm using the loki-patch tool from djrbliss to patch the recovery image and then I create a flashable zip to install it. I wrote a little script that I run under Ubuntu to patch the recovery as well as create the zip package so keeping up with the latest recoveries should be simple. I've modified the way this flashes so that both the loki patch and loki flash tools are used which perform additional checks to make sure a valid bootloader base is being used. I re-used the loki-doki script from attn1 and modified it a little to do recoveries instead of bootloaders.
The flash process performs the following:
1. Extracts a boot image directly from the device, therefore much safer and more generic.
2. Using loki-patch, applies the loki patch to the CWM recovery image using the extracted boot image.
3. Using loki-flash, flashes the patched recovery image to the device. As per djrbliss, there are checks in the tool to avoid unsupported bootloaders so it's obviously much safer.
About the images:
- This is the latest touch and non-touch versions of ClockworkMod v6.0.4.7
- This is for the Samsung Galaxy S4 (Verizon) only!
- This is for bootloader version I545VRUAMDK only!
- As with any other downloads here, flash at your own risk!
Installation:
- This is meant to install via recovery so just copy to your device, boot into recovery, and install from zip.
All thanks go to:
- djrbliss for his loki tools found here: https://github.com/djrbliss/loki
- The ClockworkMod Team who provides the recoveries here: https://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
- attn1 for his loki-doki install script found here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/41841-lo...tom-boot-image-on-att-and-verizon-galaxy-s-4/
.
I had been looking for the same thing for a few days. Made my own zip to get on 6.0.4.7
Thanks for doing this... Rom manager hasn't been working for me flashing, but I did just get pointed to flashify in another thread and that worked well.
Good to have options!

there are three modes of installation in Xposed
1. Classic (write to /system directly)
2. manually zip flash by recovery
3. automatically zip flash by recovery
what does 2 and 3 do? and how does 2 and 3 work?
i have installed xposed version 2.1.4 via flashing zip file in twrp i got from this some website (i m not allowed to post the outside link for some reason), i have attached the zip file i got from that website.
Now i want to update it to latest version but after installing lastest version (2.5 or 2.4.1), app_process doesnt get install (app_process number shows 34 in red)

Hard bricking can happen with installing busybox too, same chance as installing kernel. You can also install busybox from recovery, you only need to find a flashable zip
