I get the same problem as root in terminal:
flash_image recovery /mnt/sdcard/recovery.img
error scanning partitions: no such file or directory
- ROM Manager won't work; the "flash touch recovery" says "not supported" on this phone. The recovery download also doesn't work; the Galaxy Note is not listed, despite it being on the clockworkmod website!
- ODIN won't work as it needs a tar file or md5, or similar.
- There is no tar file in this thread or anywhere else I can find. If anyone knows exactly where this can be found, that would be helpful!
Basically, if I could find an easy way to "tar" up the recovery.img, it might work with ODIN. This might work, as past tars had only the one file within, but I need a UNIX OS to use the tar command. Drat!
UPDATE: I tarred it in the terminal and will now try ODIN. I hope it works....
UPDATE #2 - yep, it works!
How to install
Odin (this will increase the flash counter)
- put your phone into download mode
- in odin choose pda, and select the .tar.md5 file and flash

[Recovery] ClockworkMod Based Touch Recovery - 04/14/12
works without any issue.....
Here's how I installed/upgraded CWM to 5.8.4.3 this is an A in Q&A
I was on the April version of CWM and was fat and happy, then I thought I'd try ICS, and didn't much care for what I was finding, then I read about another one I thought I'd try, but it (apparently) required a newer version of CWM, 5.8.4.3 i think.
So ROM Manager from the play store wouldn't do the upgrade for me, kept giving errors.
I'd used odin to install the april .tar, but this new version comes in an .img file.
I downloaded the .img file and placed it on my phone in sdcard (/mnt/sdcard)
searched high and low for a few hours, found a semi-cogent post about how to install it using adb from your PC, i guess.
adb is in the SDK which you can get from here:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
I installed this and I located adb here: C:\androidsdk\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
on my PC from the command line (start, run, cmd, ENTER) I changed directories to that directory.
I executed, still on the command line: adb shell
:
This presented me the the octothorpe (hashtag if you must) prompt:#
at the # prompt I entered WITHOUT the double quote, ditto marks (")
"dd if=/sdcard/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.3-quincyatt.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22"
so it looked like this:
#dd if=/sdcard/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.3-quincyatt.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
I pressed enter and it ran pretty quickly and returned to the (apparent) adb prompt # then I typed exit and it dumped me to the C: prompt and I exited that too (so there!), Then I rebooted the phone into recovery mode using one of many nifty reboot apps in the play store, so I don't have to have my fingers holding this slick and slippery buttons.
I verified I was in the new version of CWM, and rebooted to make sure my phone was still breathing... it was so I bailed back into recovery and am now running a backup... then I'll try to install the new ICS ROM, although it looks way too small to me.
I've gathered that the # prompt is the root prompt in adb, so either I'm very lucky and it does this by default, or adb detected my rooted phone... if you've read this far your guess is as good as mine.
I hope this helped someone from having to google for hours and hours into the night, and then not oversleep, not be late to work, not get fired, not go on unemployment, etc.
or not.
if you are running an unsecured kernel, adb should start with root rights of I'm not mistaken...also when you were done moving the recovery file instead of exiting the adb session and the c prompt altogether
You could have simply used the command:
Adb reboot recovery
And in fact..That's all those apps do.
Also of you copy the files in your android sdk platform-tools folder:
Aapt.exe
Adb.exe
Adbwinapi.dll
Adbwinusbapi.dll
Into your main Windows folder, you no longer have to cd to the platform-tools folder, you can use adb as a global command.

CWM Touch [Solved, again]
I got it working very easily...
Heres how.
Got my .img file from http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager. Scroll to find Samsung Galaxy Note(ATT)
Changed the name of the file from "recovery.whatever.whatever.quincyatt.img" to "recovery.img"(minus quotes) using es file explorer(root needed)
Moved the file to root of /sdcard = /sdcard/recovery.img
Opened terminal emulator
typed
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
quit
then backed out to home screen and rebooted into my newest CWM Touch recovery.
Hope this helps anyone who needs it
EDIT: Just performed backup and succeeded. saved backup to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/
Moving prior braway recovery backups there to see if they are manageable within ROMmanager
This worked for me, thanks!

I did this, but instead of quit, I wrote "reboot recovery". I'm not sure if that did it, or if it was something else I did wrong, but the phone won't come back up. I checksummed the img I downloaded with another copy of "recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.3-quincyatt.img" that I downloaded, and they matched:
e70ee18c0d63ee18d325c94e2af7a683
Shrug.
Edit: I just flashed it through odin and it worked. To build the tar.md5 I did the following in cygwin:
Code:
mv recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.3-quincyatt.img recovery.img
tar -H gnu -c recovery.img > recovery.tar
md5sum -t recovery.tar >> recovery.tar
mv recovery.tar recovery.tar.md5
Hi
I've got a HUAWEI u8815 phone stuck in boot loop - I can use Fastboot to flash BOOT.IMG and RECOVERY.IMG to it fine.
Thing is I need to flash a SYSTEM.IMG but the only backup of the System is a CWM backup that is not in *.IMG format.
It has
- system.ext4.dup
- blobs (folder - containing loads of folders and files)
Question is can I make a SYSTEM.IMG from these files... or flash the blobs - but if so how?
I'm very stuck so any help appreciated.
Thanks
giblet
Fixed - by using Fastboot to update to latest ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.2.7 that allowed me to access the file system by mounting the SD cards... I was sweating for a bit.
Hello guys,
so i have messed up my ZenFone 5's booting configuration. good thing is, i know where i have messed up, unlike other noobs like myself. i have been modifying the adbon.sh file, where i added a conditional to check if a file(/dev/keycheck) exists and if it exists(will always return 'true'), to extract the contents of a recovery.tar(custom recovery). problem is, now i cannot boot normally into my device. if anyone can help me with three things, i'd be grateful.
1. How to modify the adbon.sh file using:
(a) preferred choice: using adb sideload <filename> ( i need to update THAT SPECIFIC FILE ONLY) ->(the file is in /system/bin/)
(b) secondary choice: using fastboot flash command. is it possible to update a single file using fastboot flash? (probably not, i think) should i have to flash the entire system partition with a stock/custom ROM? (i already know most about this, but a clear good guide can help me)(i know it will overwrite the total /system partition)
2. Give me a link to the original(stock) adbon.sh file if method 1(a) is possible.
3. Give me a compatible link to a CWM recovery for my device, ASUS_T00J (the recovery in my recovery.tar is a stock recovery, i got f**** fooled into downloading a stock one where i thought it was a custom CWM recovery)
Hey,
is there a simple way to flash a new kernel / boot.img using TWRP by script / openrecoveryscript? I can select "Install Image" in the UI and flash the boot.img just fine, but I want to script that so I can flash devices easily or even remotely just by uploading the openrecoveryscript and the image to flash.
The documentation at https://twrp.me/faq/openrecoveryscript.html is pretty useless, it doesn't even mention that '/cache/recovery/openrecoveryscript' will be executed by TWRP.
The install command expects a zip file, the restore command a TWRP backup.
Any ideas? Thx
TWRP's OpenRecoveryScript ( read: command line ) support is great.
It's source code here:
Team-Win-Recovery-Project/openrecoveryscript.cpp at android-5.0 ยท TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project
Core recovery files for the Team Win Recovery Project (T.W.R.P) - this is not up to date, please see https://github.com/TeamWin/android_bootable_recovery/ - Team-Win-Recovery-Project/openrecoverysc...
github.com
IMO the mentioned TWRP recovery command line guide isn't useless as you claim.
Using a simple text file, saved in the /cache/recovery/ directory with the name openrecoveryscript, the TWRP recovery can be instructed to execute the described set of commands during the startup, e.g. the installation of a ZIP archive such as a ROM, or the deletion of a partition.
@jwoegerbauer I think you want to refer to https://github.com/TeamWin/android_bootable_recovery/blob/android-10.0/openrecoveryscript.cpp instead, as https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project ist not maintained if I understand it correctly.
However, I don't want to read the source to find out how to (not) flash a boot.img using TWRP without the UI.
If I understand the docs correctly, TWRP does not support flashing images. It supports restoring backups and installing zips.
I've also tried to find out if there is an easy way to convert the boot.img to an installable zip or TWRP recovery, but so far I've not succeeded.
Do you know an answer to this?
Use Fastboot to flash boot.img
I can't use fastboot as the device (Samsung) does not support it and it would also require physical access.
So far my workflow is to flash the image to a device I have by hand (manually), create a backup of the boot partition with TWRP (manually), download it and then deploy the backup to remote devices via adb and restore them on reboot via the openrecoveryscript.
My workflow would be simplified if could remove the need for the manual process that creates an image/backup that can be flashed remotely.
Well, I found a simpler way to flash the kernel / boot.img directly within the os. I can simply overwrite the partition:
adb push boot.img /sdcard/boot.img
adb shell su -c "dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14"
Don't even have to reboot the device...
For those wondering from where to get the block-device... See ls -l /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/ ("msm_sdcc.1" part may be different)
