[Q] Problem rooting my HTC Google Nexus One with CWM - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone! I have a HTC Google Nexus One with 2.3.6 and last night I decided to root it to install a custom ROM. I unlocked the Reboot with the adb command window and I installed the Clockwork recovery 5.0.2.0 with the same method (with fastboor flash recovery...) and the program said it was done and OK.
Now,when I try to get into recovery,it doesn't work. It appears a warning signal with a little android next to it,any ideas to fix that? Thanks!

Can't boot into recovery with Clockwork

Hello everyone.
I have a rather strange problem with my hero.
I'm using Amon_Ra 1.7.0.1, but I was curious about ROM manager and it's clockwork recovery.
I used included flash option to put clockwork into my phone. everything looked ok, until I tried to boot into recovery itself.
Phone froze showing Android.
I ripped the battery, ROM loaded correctly, ROM manager still saying that I have correct recovery flashed.
I flashed Amon_Ra again, using Android Commander, and it works as it should.
I don't know if Clockwork is worth attention, if Amon_ra works flawlessly, but I'm curious if someone had similar experience.
(oh, I tried to download apropriate ZIP from http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image.html, but also no luck booting into recovery after flashing).
with regards

Same here, I used UnrEVOked 3.2.1, rooted perfectly, tried to boot into recovery and nothing, just a black screen with white borders, after several attempts, I bricked my phone, long story, so after a trip to Verizon, I got a brand new Incredible, rooted again with UnrEVOked, and again not able to boot into recovery. So I installed ROM Manager, and loaded an experimental version of CLockwork, I think 2.5.1.1, nearly the same thing happens, except now I got the weird red/green/blue/white boot screen flashing all at once. but the alternate recovery included with ROM Manager works just fineā€¦ I don't what's going on.
hi i got the solution of your and mine problem there is an option in ROM manager to switch the recovery to RA connect your phone through wifi then switch recovery to RA then it will download the original HTC recovery back and the problem solved after that uninstall the ROM Manager i got this solution today and my problem is solved i hope so that u are also suffering from the same problem

[Q] recovery mod

Hey guys,
I am doing this rom flash for a mate of mine.
I am trying to flash the tastyginger rom, but i am having some real difficulties while flashing the rom.
He has a dutch htc hero from hi. He has the latest rom according to the update utility thingy. it is the 2.1-update1 version. i believe i've read something about nand locks, and i think his phone has exactly that. the first step to flash a new rom is to root the phone. Rooting the phone works, gives no errors.
But when i try to flash the recovery image, it says it cant find the flash_image file.
it is should be located in the system folder on the phone but it isn't. i've tried to install it with android sdk, but the thing just is really acting weird. htc sync isn't working with the phone. it says there isn't a phone in the usb.
Now to make it clear, can somebody give me a clear tutorial on how to flash the thing correctly? I've done this before on my hd2. i've flashed the cyanogen 2.6 rom to my phone.
have you tried rom manager to flash rom its the easiest way i know. the way i rooted was with universal androot apk then installed rom manager clicked on flash clockworkmod recovery then went to install rom from sd card in rom manager scrolled down to the rom i wanted to flash choice it and pressed ok i then select backup existing rom and wipe data and cache and pressed ok then it will ask reboot and install and press ok and let it do its thing then wait untill it reboots and it should of installed rom which you wait to boot should have a custom splash screen that comes up and wait until your prompted to input details and such. hope this helps.
hey, thanks for the advice.
i let him try this method, but when he chose the htc hero gsm to install the cwm, the app refused to install it and gave this error message:An error occured while attempting to run privileged commands.
I forget to mention that the method you posted, that we already tried it.
But thanks for the effort!
pretty certain this is the tut. i used, i also had to use the gold card method -.-;

rom manager has been down lately everyone has had trouble flashing clockwork recovery, but ra recovery second from bottom is a secondary choice however other features of rom manager might not work if you use this you will have to boot into recovery manually.you also need super user to use this as well.

Use this apk, i have always used this method!
Download clockwork or ra recovery rename it to recovery.img and copy to sdcard
Backup recovery with flashrec
then type sdcard/recovery.img
flash recovery and done!
I've done the recovery succesfully at the guys phone. It works bloody well. Thanks dudes! You can lock it up if you want to.

[Q] Clockwork Recovery Mod

Hi guys, I have an Htc Legend and im getting really frustrated with trying to get into the clockwork recovery mode.
I rooted my phone using the visionary+ software and it successfully rooted and downloaded superuser and lucky patcher. I then tried to flash a rom to replace my HTC sense so i downloaded rom manager and successfully got a clockwork recovery mod. I found a rom I liked but when i said to download it, it took me to the system recovery mode. I tried several different roms and they still led me to the system. I even tried the "unlockr's" instructions to flash a recovery mode off the computer and it still didn't work.
If someone has any idea what might be wrong and how to make it work could they please let me know.
Thanks in advance
Look here and take the S-OFF-method.
