I just started rooting my phone, and in one of the tutorials, it says to find ROM Manager from the Market.
I search it up, and don't find it at all.
I looked up ways to install it, such as AppBrain (says it could not be found when I tried installing).
Any other way to find and install this app?
You can probably get it on
www.4shared.com
You don't need it though, there is an update.zip you can flash in stock recovery to get cwm recovery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9375927

I can't get ANYthing to install via clockwork, everything says can't open <insert file name>.zip, (bad), installation aborted. Uninstalled ROM Manager and reinstalled, etc... can't get anything to install. I apologize if this is a dumb question or if I'm overlooking something but any help would be appreciated, thanks.

How are you getting into clockwork? Try rom manager of you're not. Also try downloading the roms again

It is ROM Manager, as stated in the OP, and it's not ROMs I'm trying to install, it's various .zips like the new Swype, original i900 Boot Animations, etc...
Oh I see, what rom are you currently running?
As for the swype, try and use a file manager to open the .zip and manually install it.

Stock ROM, rooted and lag fixed. The swype isn't an APK.

In rom manager, did you click "flash clockworkmod recovery"? If not thats what you need to do, select the vibrant option and your phone will reboot into clockwork. Search the forums here there is a good walk through of clockwork installation and usage

It sounds like you're trying to flash from the stock recovery, not Clockwork. Make sure you click "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" in ROM Manager and possibly "Reinstall Packages" if it still takes you to the stock recovery.
It was definitely from clockwork, but I got it. Apparently by coincidence, all four separate files I had tried to install had been corrupted somehow. Re-downloaded through Skyfire, re-flashed and all is well.

Thanks for the help anyway guys. Even if it did imply I was clueless

Was not intending to make you sound clueless friend, have seen others miss that step, and you didn't list it so thought it might help. At any rate, glad you got it resolved.

Hello all, I'm hoping I can get some help. I cannot get passed stock recovery to Clockwork recovery. I am rooted and have done this many times so I know that you have to reinstall packages to get there, sometimes twice, but I have done it repeatedly and it keeps going back to stock recovery. Any ideas?

Maybe install ROM Manager and reflash the ClockworkMod Recovery?
You may need to check if you are indeed rooted check by manually going into Download mode, if that works you may need to reflash CWM, if not then you may need to reroot the phone
I've tried going though rom manager and it takes me to the same stock recovery. Reinstalling packages isn't working. I used Odin, went back to stock, used samsung kies mini to update to Froyo, Super one click root, and then 3e recovery. I'm not sure if I'm musing something but I've fine all of this before and had no issues until now.

I'm also having a problem with this, but it didn't start until after I flashed CM7 for Vibrant. Now the i9000 boot up goes before the Vibrant one, as well as not being able to get into CMW.
I finally got into recovery, had to reinstall packages about 45 times. Thanks for the help anyway

I tried using all the steps about copying the Update.zip file to sdcard, it didnt work. Error message came when reinstalling packages is (Invalid Signature) in the recovery menu.
I tried z4root, didn's work either.
I am helpless.

I can help you
superoneclick. that is all
Careful!
SuperoneClick does it!
Careful with rooting my friend. I got a Galaxy S bricked within 1 week, hard bricked.
Do you have android 2.2 or 2.1 and do you have usb debugging enabled?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Have you tried using the toolbox?
root
Just find z4 root app install and it will root you.
I installed super one click. Its done!
But, I installed ROM Manager and cant flash it.
Did you open rom manager and hit the top tab and pick vibrant?
Its probably because you have 3e recovery! The easiest way is to flash back to 2.1 eclar, use z4root then flash CWM with rom manager thats how I did it

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.
Sent from my XT720 using xda premium
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.
Sent from my XT720 using xda premium
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.

Hi, i have a Motorola Photon i Already Root the cellphone Works good then i download RomManager and then download miui rom and using rommanager I flash the cellphone by the option the rommanager have and try to boot into Recovery to install another Rom(miui) and every time i reboot into recovery it gave me and error or reboot into the normal Recovery the System Recovery 3e
is there is anyway i could install the Rom without the SDK.
Thank you
Google "root Motorola photon without a computer". You'll need to find photon-torpedo in the travels, but it's not hard. The files needed for computer root and Shabby's AIO root did nothing for me. I can look up the info if you need. It's pretty easy, just takes a few minutes.

Actually the phone is already rooted problem is when I'm trying to reset into recovery the options are pretty small to choose... So I'm thinking I need to unlock the bootloader because I can't work with the option listed in the recovery mod o3 something that came with the mot–photon, I'll try to upload a pic so you could have an idea
