Just use the wipe all partitions except sdcard option in 4EXT recovery, does the very same thing.

Thanks bro, kinda figured that part might still be the same as when I used CWM on my Incredible S 2yrs ago also I looked at 2 different kernel posts and for ICS he says right in his post "ONLY S-OFF" phones so I keep getting confused cuz I trust u but those comments throw people off ya know?

Reason why they put that is because a bunch of noobs who don't know what the hell they're doing flash things randomly without knowing what they're dealing with, since s-off requires some researching and adb skills, they push for s-off just to get more advanced users and avoid the noobish bs complaints/issues.
Hey bro yeah if you're using cwm, switch to 4ext it's worth it, use wipe all partitions, faster, easier than Superwipe, trust me I used Superwipe every time before flashing roms

Ok cool. Sorry Sheathunderboilt wasn't trying to be a jerk. I was just starting to wonder if the confusing wording of the questions was intentional.

Have you tried turning the phone off then holding volume down + power untill the bootloader screen appears and then manually selecting recovery? ROM Manager tends to have issues.

reinstall rom manager and flash one ot the older cwm like the 4.0.1.5 not the 5.x.x.x
Try reflashing Clockwork recovery by following the instructions in [url="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179386]this[/url] thread. It sounds like your recovery got screwed up or wiped out somehow. Use version 5.0.2.1. I think the version 5 issues are fixed in that one. If you still have issues try using one of the version 4.x ones.

Thanks guys I did it and got my phone and just FYI version five don't work on my tb so I will stay away from ROM manager!!!!! I still couldn't do a back up in recovery cuz it says error on restoring boot image ,once!again o beloved my SD card corrupt

Thread title explains it. I've only ever used CWM and I'm not familiar with AmonRa. What's different about it, and does it work more or less the same as CWM?
Thanks!

I think its pretty much the same from my exp...i rly wish my data would stop droppin so i can reply lol

They are pretty much the same. Amonra has a couple cool features. For example, it can root a stock rom from recovery
Didn't know about it being able to root a stock Rom. Thank you sir

Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
I didn't know either until I was looking through it. It worked great and took 5 seconds. It is in the development section of recovery under mounts and stuff
Cool. Thanks for the info.
So are Rom images formatted for one or the other, or can you use them interchangeably? I'm sure we'll end up seeing CWM soon so I'm curious.
Thanks!

Ok I am almost at the point of trying a Rom. My questions are..
1) being htvdev unlocked ota upgraded are there roms I cannot install? If so how can I tell.
2)again with the ota restriction can I use goo manager to install or do I need to use fastboot flash boot to do it.
3)looking for advice on a good Rom to install. Not sure about going senseless not that I am against it just I realize it is more than just the pretty face. Although the only widget I use is fancy widgets do not think that requires sence but I could be wrong. I would like the rom with the best multitask capabilities. Super user of course and buttons renapped for sure. The fastest most stable Rom woukd be best.
4) I have reset google wallet so will I be safe from bricking my chip?
Thanks for any and all help

Yes it is. Hopefully someone eill dev a version that will work on our phones. I was useing smelkus 4.3 when I had my supersonic, man what a wicked badass piece of work that was. And thats why I was asking. I like TWRP. But AmonRa is the way to go.

Amen to that TWRP would mess uo my flashes on my OG EVO and CWM would sometimes cause my captive Buttons to fail in Recovery. Smelkus Mason Recovery had unbelievable features and would never fail
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
TWRP isnt a bad recovery, I ve had no issues with it, But as you said, SmelkusMod has so many cool features and is extremely reliable. Only thing is, Smelkus is pretty picky about which device he developes for. As far as the original dev for AmonRa (damnit I always forget that dudes name,No disrespect intended) opefully he might be coming up with something for us. As I said, I dont have any issues with TWRP its just Im more accustomed to AmonRa and its nice to have alternatives.
Have y'all tried 4ext recovery? It's not on the lte yet but it was on the 3d and it was by far the best
Man i hope someone ports over some form of Amon RA, having options are always better

Lol, his name is AmonRa
Trying to remember what was so great about AmonRa. From what I remember it was just a prettier CWM. Somehow I must've missed these other variations of it but from my memory it was pretty basic when compared to TWRP. Maybe I didn't stick around with the OG EVO long enough. Hopped ship soon as 3D was released then left that for E4GT.

Yeah, same here why was AmonRa so awesome? I remember everyone said that, but I had nothing to compare it to. TWRP seems way more advanced to me in terms of being "pretty", plus the touch interface with the sliding to confirm is awesome. What are these awesome features of AmonRa?

Ra just worked. CWM was buggy as hell on the OG.
I've had to reinstall TWRP a few times already on this device because it would just reboot itself when trying to restore a nandroid or flash a ROM

Smelkus has combo wipes built into it like superwipe and dalvik cache & cache wipes.
The ability to auto reboot after a nandroid backup/restore is nice too

True, But a dude name Smelkus(Smelkus Mod) Took the AmonRa to a whole other level. SmelkusMod 4.3 was an awesome piece. And for those who stated That AmonRa JUST WORKED. +1 that was exactly it It just works, no issues on bugs no fussin around with ****. it just works.
Just got on rootswiki and left Smelkus a message asking if he might consider deving a recovery for our device,,,Keep your fingers crossed...

People taking this unbranded thing too seriously. the only difference in unbranded version is the different cid it's like a access code since we don't have a ics ruu for that cid we had to s off our phones (breaking the access code so it accept any brand) that's the difference, other than that all Amaze 4G's are the very same so yea, I did the same way chevy did

Back to the point,
Now for the 2nd time I'm telling you, you have to do the s off process again. At the end of the process if it asks you if you want the jbear hboot choose yes.
This isn't rocket science, you aren't programming a satellite, nor are you short circuiting your phone, so calm down people. If you are that worried and paranoid about it you need to leave xda and get an iPhone or something that doesn't challenge your mind and isn't technologically advanced. So if anyone else is reading this that's clueless about this process just keep that it mind.
