Its nothing to worry about just ignore it

It's just the cwm app saying that, boot into cwm with three button combo and all is still there, you can find an updated recovery but they use a new method of backing up that I don't personally like so I stay with the old,I never use the app to boot into recovery anyway, so in summary, nothing to worry about

since u already have recovery installed just download the clockowrk mod 3.1.0.0 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065197 |transfer the file to ur sd card and flash the zip from recovery reboot |Done! u have the latest recovery installed
as far as rom is concerned cm7 is all time favorite for most
here is the installatin procedure http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038338 using clockwork whch wrk the best njoy just avoid the sd partition step if u dont want a2sd stuff or read the specific rom installation instruction which requires parttioning sd card, cm7 can be installed without partitioning ur sd

No need to wipe anything.
Backups are always handy. But be aware that backup done by amonra or cwm are not compatible to each other. That means backup taken by any recovery will only be restored with same recovery.

You have to toggle signature verification off from recovery. I hope u have that on thunderg. The zip is not signed.

That zip file is for amonra recovery which doesn't have an option for formatting system. In cwm recovery, you have the format system option.
Flashing doesn't lead to bricking normally.
And all custom roms are always rooted.

I'm sorry if I'm wrong, because I've never used cm7. But from some screenshots I've seen it seems that you can change what icons appear in the notification area. I'm not sure though.

go to cyanogenmod settings and there is something like interface (i don't know exactly, because i don't have it in phone right now), but you can certainly change icons in the notification area.
Settings>CM Settings>Interface>Notification Power Widget>Many options>Enjoy.
thanks solved the network issue.. but as i tried to open the market it just popup for a second and close .. so unable to download anything from market...btw is it ok to flash franco.kernel v14 with cm7 .. do i need to wipe anything before flashing?
no. I just flashed. you can wipe cache+dalvik if you want. check for two files mentioned in franco's thread. if you have them, You HAVE to delete them before flashing. if you dont, just flash. you need setCPU to change the CPU freq coz CM OC screen does not display at the moment. battery and smoothness is great.

I flashed Franco kernel too, half an hour before. But I didn't check for those two files. But the phone is functioning fine.
Are those two files to be deleted are meant for everyone or for those who have previously flashed Franco kernel?

[Q] Rom Manager Premium

I purchased Rom Manager Premium so I can install Enyo's latest MIUI rom. The problem is, no ROMs are showing up under the "premium roms" tab. Do I need to add locations to ROM manager somehow? I thought they should just show up after I upgraded....
While donating to the developers is never a bad idea, Enyos Miui rom is free to download? 10.14 is working great for me, but I believe he is getting ready to upload another version that has.a few minor fixes in it. (Although I haven't noticed any problems here.)
Thanks for the response. The link to his rom is not working on his developer page. He said it's available in ROM manager, but I only see 4-5 ROMs in there and none of them are Enyo roms...

My guess is that you don't have your phone setup properly in rom mananger. Your phone is probably being recognized as I9000.
You could fix this, or better yet, just install your roms directly through recovery. Be sure to use the correct recovery for the rom you are installing.

Yes this is almost exactly what I did to get it to work. You have to touch flash clockworkrecovery and set up your phone to use your version of clockwork ...once I set it up.it.immediately shows the Roms

This was the first time I have ever used Rom Manager to do anything with a ROM. Could not find the last MIUI build anywhere but there. I prefer to boot into recovery and install that way. Maybe cause there is less chance for error. I just used Rom Manager to download the Rom and still installed the old way after I changed out the ringtones and the mms.apk.

[Q] CWM not working on my Ace

Hello guys, i don't know what i'm doing wrong here but i just cannot get it work.
I would like to install custom ROM's but i believe i need the CWM first.
I have tried to flash it through the original recovery and with odin using the "One packet" method but neither of these methods doesn't work. The flashing goes without any problems but when i try to enter the CWM(Home+Pwr) it freeses right at the "Samsung GT" logo and there appears to be green triangle at the top left corner..
Any advices?

Make sure that you go to recovery by holding the power and middle(home) button down. Make sure that your CWM is the correct version , v5.0.2.6. If this does not work, flash your phone using Odin to reset the firmware. It should work after that. The words in CWM v 5.0.2.6 should appear in blue. Please share more of your experiences here.
i've tried version 5.0.2.6 but it still wont work. I know i might be doing something wrong, i'm quite new with this stuff.
I downloaded the latest firmware from samfirmware.com and flashed it, and after that i tried the CWM. Should i try some other firmware?

Yes.. it could be because you did not install CWM 4.0.0.3. Try it, like kelvinkiller said.
Try this. I used it (the mrs. has ace) and it works. I had stock 2.3.6 before flashing. = no odin, no cwm 4.x needed..

- Flash the CWM 4 with odin
- Flash the "recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix"
i've tried several versions now and none of them works. So the problem is somewhere else than in the CWM versions i quess.
I think i'm gonna try the stock Firmware next and then flash the cwm 4.
Any ideas where can i get the stock? Don't have any backups lol.

To install cm10 you need root access, go check cfroot by chain fire. Gapps is basically your Google now etc. With a custom recovery, just flash the cm10 and Gapps and you'll be good to go.
Stock kernel is subjective with very little difference. All kernels work for me so it's not so much of an issue deciding which is better.
The best rom is the one you try for yourself. Rom comparisons are not allowed on xda
Latest stock will be depending on whether you want android version 4. 1.1 or 4.0.4

You can safely ignore that error.
CWM in the apps drawer is the UI interface of the CWM recovery (accessed by pressing the Vol Up+Home+Power when booting up). CWM recovery works without a hitch.

All options are there when you boot into recovery, it is just the app that is incompatible, meaning a couple of the options won't work directly from the app....you need to boot into recovery to do those things.....don't worry, it's all there.
I personally prefer the older recovery as it doesn't use the blob method of backing up. And I'm used to the old way!
