I've been trying to back up my Prime since yesterday and when I get to CWM and click on back up it says boot image could not be found. Not sure what I could do to fix it. Have any of you ran into this?

Yeah just go into ROM manager, and at the bottom, where there are previous clockworks, just flast 5.8.2.0. This one works, backs up, and best of all, won't brick your prime if you flash ROMs.

It is not necessarily a recovery but a way to recover from most software bricks meaning that almost anything not hardware related can be fixed with it..... read up and decide for yourself... after you do that then install twrp

If you are on honeycomb you are free to flash recovery via Rom manager.
If you are on gb I am working on a compatible recovery right now. Once I get it done you will be able to use the features in Rom manager but not flash recovery via Rom manager
confirmed working with Honeycomb htcdev unlocked hboot 1.14.

any hope on porting a touch based recovery? I think all tabs should have a touch based recovery since the lack of HW buttons
Guessing this still does not allow to use the internal memory for anything?

Updated OP
I just rooted my view last night.. I flashed recovery once, enough to put the SU file on SD card to root. But since then, I've tried to do a backup (through ROM manager) and the white HTC screen pops up and doesn't go away. So then I tried to do it manually through hboot and when I choose recovery it does the same thing .. what do you think might be the problem? I'm very new to this so I'm hoping it is something simple that I missed... Please help
Everything seems to be working good except the small bug listed below. It is stock CWM and I haven't changed anything, just built it for our phones. Not sure what's up with the background as I haven't added anything?
Will flash CM9 without issues! I haven't had any flashing issues at all actually...
The .zip is CWM flashable, no fastboot needed. Enjoy!
Bugs-
Internal SD won't mount in usb storage mode.
(can still flash from internal)
Dropbox(Go easy)- http://db.tt/GvNBGK29
Mediafire- http://www.mediafire.com/?qzemoy3t86v761i
MD5- b819dcb34b48e97b3f9e2a7e6d665d0a
so im assuming this is the touch enabled version?
Flashed, its not the touch version. but everything looks to be in working order.
Only for cm7 and cm9?
or custom roms too?

Flashed jokercomplete, booted then flashed back to Initiative with no issues. The background image is nice. The menu disappears during flashing and the progress bar is hard to see (very thin and low contrast) which may make some people nervous.
I'll add it to the compendium and update the root-unlock-relock zip in the next day or so. Thanks yepitsme19.
Found a possible bug.Internal storage doesn't show up on windows computer when mounting "usb storage". Could somebody verify.
flashed on photon, works fine. I'll write if something is wrong.

I agree with all that you have said.
Hi there, I just started flashing a couple months ago and all is great. When I first started flashing I used cwm to flash a ROM. I would clear data then clear cache then afterwards flash the ROM and would work flawlessly.
Now as I try to do that (trying to flash a brand new ROM), Everytime I try to cleardata or cache on cwm my phone would freeze there, therefore I couldn't properly set up my phone for a new ROM.
Any ideas or solution I can do to fix this? Greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

You will not lose anything. Unless you fubar the phone some how.
Yea I had the same issue about a month ago. The only thing that worked for me was using Odin to put me back to stock gingerbread, re flash cwm and root. Since then I've been able to flash and it fixed the cache hang up in cwm.

Also go back and use the thanks button for those who assisted/advised you.
I have a noob question. I unlocked/rooted my phone using the CASUAL method and it put twrp recovery on there. Is it possible to switch that to clockwork mod that I am more familiar with and if so, how do I do it?
Thanks in advance.

Yes it is. Just use goomanager to update it TWRP to the latest. Also I guess you could just use ROM manager to install CWM, but as stated TWRP seems to be the best for the note

Good news is if you can get into download mode then your not bricked. You may have to just Odin the factory image back to stock and you should be fine. Don't panic!

Also i notice RLS9 on the thread for hyperdrive is downloadable @ 1.7gb. could i just flash this in download mode?

Nope no roms at the moment. Next time do a little bit of reading, it goes a long way. Its been beaten to death literally theres no custom recovery for me7, its been posted atleast a hundred times and its posted in the me7 image thread as well. Check out the safestrap thread in the general section. Hashcode is working on a method for roms/recovery as we speak. After you get your phone fixed and rooted if you choose to do, look into xposed framework and the wanam module.from the play store. You will atleast be able to get some customization out of the stock me7 rom.

Hes not screwed he just has to odin the stock me7 image. The phone is still bootable in fact but everytime he tries to go into recovery its going to throw him into download mode. Back onto topic I would odin one of the stock me7 images so you will atleast have a stock recovery.
