I'm sorry but i couldnt find anything about it.
So, basically my question is: Is it actually compatible with the XT720 and, if so, what model should i pick when i try to install clockworkmod recovery?
(The XT720 option is absent.)
I'm currently using dexter's froyo and planning on trying out a few other ROMs so ROM manager would be quite nice to have.
Thanks in advance.
It can run this but its dangerous to use it advice stick to open recovery.

OK, thanks.
Is it normal to be stuck on system dumping for more than an hour while making a backup? The media LED is blinking the whole time.
I'm doing it with open recovery, as adviced
Soo I tried again after an hour and a half of waiting and another half hour after that, the result - two 3.5MB files... I gave up and decided to go ahead and install CronosX-RC1-br301-g but openrecovery just sais there's nothing in the cronosx folder, i try to restore all, and basically nothing happens. After rebooting dexter's froyo is intact so i'm going to bed and hoping somebody will help
What Open recovery are you using.

1.46, if i understand right. it's system recovery in app drawer, which kinda puts me off
Install open recovery apk then open install open recovery system and boot in to recovery.

If you have purchased a PC in the last few years, it has a portion of your harddrive partitioned off, and in that partition is software to restore your computer. It includes a menu of options, plus the windows software to allow you to rebuild your computer. Amon Ra is the same basic thing for your phone.
To see if you have it, hold the volume-up button while your phone powers up. You should get a menu (green print) with a list of options to flash an update, backup & restore, reboot, wipe, and install a zip. This is the recovery menu. You can & should make a full system backup first thing, in case you mess something up later. Then you can use this menu to install new ROMs, or restore from an old backup.
Instead of Amon Ra, you might have Clockwork recovery instead. They both pretty much do the same thing. I personally like Amon.
Oh Aright. Well that happens but I don't know which one I have ha. Thanks.

I just looked but I can't remember it all (old age setting in).
Anyway, amon's at the bottom says something like "Build: RA v1.6.2"

It doesn't have the google apps as part of the rom.
Quoting Conap: "Please flash the googleapps for froyo after flashing rom. This google apps will fix the google goggles issue...
Google Apps Make sure you get the mdpi file."
I try from rom manager and the side button, takes me to stock recovery. I hit reinstall packages and still doesn't get me in. It says e: can't mount and sd can't find update.zip? This is first time this has ever happened.

go to rom manager and flash clockwork recovery..
once it tells you "successfully flashed CWM" go to Files and check if there's an update.zip if it's there you are good to go..
then go to recovery.. re-install package ( may have to re-install twice until you see green text) flash away!!
****, I went to reinstall packages and it installed update.zip even though my phone was already rooted now my super user is a ninja looking thing instead of skull and when I try to use anything requiring root it says force close super user not responding

So I had nero 4.1
Went to flash ginger clone 2
Installed. But phone is stuck on bootloop
So I uzed odin to flash bak to stock
Everything went fine.
Bu not when I go to install the update.zip.... It doesnt seem to install it all the way.
Progression bar moves like a half an inch. Then says it installed.
I do have superuser w.e that **** is installed.
But when I go to flash a rom. It takes me to the "reinstall package screen" which tells me the update.zip did not install.
What can be wrong?
Ive gone bak to stock before. A d rooted again. No problem.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
it SOUNDS like you are trying to flash the ROM useing the stock recovery.....this is a no-no. heres what you do:
1. ODIN back to stock, just to start fresh
2. Root your device, i like to use OCLF app from the market
3. download/install "ROM Manager" from the market
4. Select "Flash Clockwork recovery" (select vibrant as your device)
5. You now have Clockwork setup to be your recovery menu. to access it, just boot into recovery like you usually do, select "reinstall packages"....this will boot you into clockwork everytime.
6. Clockwork is pretty user friendly, to flash your ROM just select "choose zip to install", find your ROM, and flash away! (DO NOT rename your ROM to "update.zip", this name must be reserved exclusively for clockwork recovery...so never rename anything to update.zip, and never delete your existing update.zip)
Now, if you are using Clockwork, it sounds like it may be a corrupt .zip. Redownload the ROM and try again (I would suggest downloading from a PC).
Ty for the quick reply.
Im on the road now so ill try it when I get home

do you mean it has it, but you arent able to use it? it should be the first or second option
------
if its there, but its not available to you, these means you are already rooted.....which is not possible if you ODINed back to stock...........if you need, i can give you the root update.zip to flash through recovery....basically all OCLF does is install the update.zip to your sdcard for you to flash through the stock recovery. then you flash it and it installs busybox and superuser, and youre rooted.
now once you download ROM manager and select "flash clockwork" it will install the clockwork update.zip to your sdcard (which obviously replaces the previous root update.zip, but you dont lose root).
so do you see how this works now?
Need help please... fellow vm670 users. (Clockworkmod) not working (rom manager)

Don't use rom manager manually flash recoveries
Sent from my Optimus V
belive me i wont.. I have locked up 2 other optimus v's... I dont under stand i have used rom manager on 2 different. phone models in the past and put custom
roms with no problems... obviously that is not the case with the vm670!!! Well than
Do you have the optimus vm670.... if so
I need some advise .. How do you manualy flash a recovery .... And witch version to use for the Optimus VM670
If you have terminal emulator type
Su
Flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img (your recovery file might be called something else, mine is called vrecovery.img, so I typed that in) then turn off phone, hold the home button, volume down and power until your phone gets past the first LG screen. And I hope you have a backup to load. And don't forget to type su first.
Or you can hook it up to your computer and use adb to type in commands. I haven't tried that yet, so I don't know if the commands are the same.

ok thanks.. so that is what the terminal emulator is for... Well have you ever tried to do something in the past and ended up with a blue screen (fastboot)?
this had happened to me twice already, and had to replace. both devices almost afraid to try anything ... are you currently using
a custom rom? Also what would be the best way to backup with out. using Rom Manager ? or would it be ok to use RM
just for a backup

Go to the link above and follow step by step, you could have saved your last two phones with this. Once you do this, you should be safe using rom manager on future flashes. I use it all the time... don't skip any steps
And the blue screen is the boot screen, that's about as much as I know a out it, I'm pretty new to all of this, I think it comes up if no recovery is installed
And I am using the most recent aosp cm7 if you follow the link uptop it will walk you through everything, even backing up. Its almost impossible to fully brick these things, and one more thing, leave all files zipped, ce recovery unzips them, they aren't normal .Zip files

Ok thanks...well the only problem is that I really don't have pc access to flash a custom recovery ...sucks..
Also tried to use terminal emulator
No luck.." flash.img not found"
Tons of people blogging same results .. well I guess I will have to wait, for computer access Or an easier way ...What really sucks is that I have a older 2.1 disconnected android with CyanogenMod 7 running android
2.3 Awesome ....
Wish could I could get on my optimus v ! Or something like it

Ok so I tried to install the simply stock 2.3.5 yesterday and when it was going through I got some ladies voice who kept repeating the same line over and over. 'converting cache partition. Not enough space on partition' and kept boot looping that over and over. Could not do anything with it after that except DL mode and odin back to stock. Could some one please take a look at this rom and give me some instructions for it because the ones that were in the thread weren't all that specific. Also could someone give me the best root for this phone because the one I used may have been the cause.
Also there is a fixer file for this rom that apparently addresses some problems it has... How would I go about installing that zip?
