Rom Manager/Clockwork Recovery - Desire General

As most of you already know I have no trackpad and due to this I can't use custom recoverys. I've been campaigning for an option to use power to select so I can use recovery again.
Now I have a problem that I can't flash any froyo roms but can flash others fine. I've narrowed down the problem I think. It's definitely not SD card related or ext related. I think the rom manager does not wipe every necessary thing that it needs to. When I could use recovery before I could flash froyo roms. Now I have rom manager as my only option and it only seems to wipe data cache and ext.

ROM Manager didn't wipe SD-EXT for me.
If you use linux then format your card in it and try again. Maybe this helps.
Will post again when something crosses my mind
EDiT: Just read your post again. Are you shure it's not SD?
OK. Then try using... damn you and your trackball

Yeah i have tried reformat of sd card. Tried a new sd card with only fat32 on it. Tried a version of froyo without a2sd.
Really stuck haha.

So what's stopping you going stock and taking it back for exchange? The T-Mobile ROM is available so I'd just do that!!

Warranty void. It's only the trackpad it would be fine if I wasn't such a rom whore lol

The warranty isn't void if you go back to stock...they won't even know you flashed a Rom

Repaired via disassembly and using Contact Cleaner. Thanks user abc27.
A FIVER GOES TO THE FIRST PERSON TO MAKE A RECOVERY FOR THE DESIRE THAT ACCEPTS ANY OTHER THAN TRACKPAD PRESS TO CONFIRM. I HAVE NO TRACKPAD SO CAN USE NOBODYS RECOVERY!

Ha thank you. Yeah water damage equals instantly void. I opened it up and fixed it but 2 months later the trackpad is totally gone. I just really want the ability to use recovery fully again.

What if you test your luck and bring it back like this?
With stock rom ofc
If they say no... you could just pay for the trackpad!

that makes sense....(htc sense ) nah, but really.....if it costs even 50 bucks id still say thats worth it....a 400quid phone with limited usability....?

The phones fine. I only need trackpad for recovery. Or alternate button.

I wouldn't hope too much on someone developing another recovery...
What if you edit the rom you are using and remap you trackpad press to another button?
Like the search button which i personally never use
EDiT: I'm not 100% shure this would work in recovery... but it's worth a try!

I'm pretty sure it needs to be edited within the recovery its not rom specific.

Hmm... your point seems right since all the modules are loaded in the rom and none of them is used for recovery...
I will check the AMDesireRecovery and look where they have all those button settings

Thanks. I have no idea where to start. All i know is that it is possible. Clockwork 2.0.0.3 had it but it couldn't mount the sd card or anything but the power button did select! I don't know how to edit a recovery or what file controls what. I mean there is a "keys" file but is that keys as in buttons or something else?

I think that the keys file is the verification if the zip is signed... I may be wrong...
What if we somehow merge the files of a recovery which uses power to select with a newer recovery?
Can you provide 2.0.0.3 of ClockWorkMod?

Ok just tried straight swapping the keys file and that did nothing. No response.
EDIT: Give me 2 mins.
EDIT2: Uploading very slowly. It would be great to have 2.0.0.3 merged with 2.0.1.4 (latest) as that would give me all the functionality i need.

Oh damn... the recoveries need to be signed so the stock recovery can eat them...
Do we need a special sign for that?

Yeah. There is a thread on here somewhere that has the tools for signing them...it's on the first page i'll have a quick look.
Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709141 bottom of the post.

I know how to sign files but I was wondering if we need some HTC cert for signing.
I will try to do it with the normal one if needed.
We have a problem... if I edit the files and put it back together I can't test it coz I have flashed the permanent version. :S

Stuck At HTC White Screen :/ Bricked?

So I think i have officially bricked my Evo. Apologies if this is the wrong sections. Didnt know where to put it.
Well I had rooted with Simpleroot and everything was just fine. But when i tried to install a copy of the Fresh root suddenly i was stuck at the white screen. So i went into recovery and and wiped everything. I also partitioned the sd card... Dont know if i should have done that but i figured it would wipe everything.. It did and now my zip files are gone. I Dont know what to do.. Yikes
Help much appreciated .
Lol because lol

Probably shoulda gone into Q&A....but u erased all.the data on ur card when u formatted it. You should probably follow the root instructions again from the start including copying the files to your sd card and u should be fine.
You could have done a simple search and fixed ur issue.

Sorry I thought this my be the wrong forum section. I cant access my Sd card though?
Your Evo isn't bricked.
Select the USB-MASS toggle feature in recovery mode, that'll mount your SD card to your computer, then drop a ROM or two onto the root of your SD card, wipe, then flash one.
Or pull the SD card out and put it in an adapter and plug into computer, then drop a couple roms on it

Youre definitely not bricked. Pull the battery out, boot into fast boot, wait a sec while it does its thing, then select wipe/restore factory defaults. Then it should be fine. This happened to me 2 days ago. When bricked, the phone won't even turn on. It does nothing, thus the term.

Which ROM's are giving you theses problems?
Ive tried the fresh 1.0.1 thats when it all started then i tried the EVO-NonSense.
I had been flashing roms before the Fresh one now im just stuck at the white screen.
Are you using Koush's Clockwork recovery? Try flashing Yay 4 Juggs ROM.
Im using the RA recovery that came with SimpleRoot
Yeah, just try flashing a different ROM.
Hmm i'll try. Is there anyway to earse my root and start over? Because for now im just get the htc Evo 4g white logo everytime i try and flash a new ROM
Did you update the radios and all that too? Did you make sure and use the right version of simple root for your software?
Yeah Yesterday I was flashing ROMS normally. Something may have happened when i tried to flash a radio and wimax

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBu6GsRZMdI Some random video I looked up on YouTube that shows you how to unroot. It's a hassle, to unroot, then root again, I'd give flashing a different another shot before I did that.
Stupid question: Are you wiping data and dalvik cache before flashing a ROM?

Clockwork recovery after UnrEVOked. Help!

I rooted my Evo last night with no problem and then decided to risk taking chances modding. I ended up replacing the HTC lockscreen with the vanilla one! However, I ended up trying to do a clockwork mod (the one that has the battery number on the top) and now my phone is in bootloop. I can't get my computer to recognize the phone now to download something on it. Anyone know of a way around this?
You should be able to pull the battery and be able to boot right back to recovery. Did you try that? Loops are POST recovery override so I would guess you haven't tried this yet?

Thanks for taking the time to help me btw
Have you tried a different USB port? Strangely, sometimes Windows gets picky with a particular port / phone combo... and then choosing a different port often fixes connection failures.
Also, did you try factory resetting the phone as well? Like... clear storage... followed by full wipe?

Yeah I tried to reset factory but it resets it right into "Clockwork recovery." Trying to change ports now.
Yeah my main problem is I downloaded that mod and I need to get the phone back to how it was when I first used the Unrevoked 3.2
try booting to fastboot... then reboot your PC... then use a previously unused USB port... switch things around if you have to.
Actually... I have another idea...
IF you have unrevoked forever on there, I am guessing this should work...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=764062&highlight=amon_RA
that thread shows how to easily get switched to amon_RA from clockwork essentially in one easy step... but it requires that you push the img file.. which you are mentioning you cannot do... BUT... if you have a card reader/writer, you can pop your micro SD card out of the phone and into a reader/writer and put the img file in its root... along with a ROM of choice. then boot to the phone and it will automatically ask you if you want to restore the image file. say yes and you will be loaded up with amon!! amon is better. once you have that on there, pull the pcimg36 file off and flash the ROM that you picked from your amon recovery.
does this make sense? if not i can try to give better detail.

Cyanogenmod6 is simply the best, but it is VERY buggy at best and needs and unlock, which you don't have. I like Ava v7 because of it's simplicity and stability. A lot of people like evio and baked snack though. I don't know why. I don't personally.

[Q] Need Help!! First time EVO Root/CM6 gone bad...

OK....long story short...finally decided to delve into rooting and custom roms. Flashed CM6 yesterday and everything was going great. Then suddenly yesterday evening as I was swiping between home screens on my device everything froze, and I have been trying to recover ever since.
Anything I flash now just freezes, and i have a touch panel-fail so even when i do get a rom to boot i cant actually get into set it to usb mode or anything.
using bootloader i can not get it to connect using the adb driver so that I can push via adb.
about an hour ago I was successfully able to run the latest RUU and it ran successfully, but device is still way laggy (takes 15 minutes to boot) and no touch screen.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! don't know where to go from here. From what I have read its not bricked because I can get into Bootloader and Recovery???
Just a shot in the dark here, but it sounds like since you're stock now it's an actual hardware failure.

It seen like you have a HARDWARE issues, Re-Boot the Stock Rom. Call Sprint and explain what's going on with your phone, please *DO NO'T MENTION YOU ROOTED YOUR PHONE* Tell them you try to wipe your phone and it was really laggy before you wipe, since you gonna Re-Boot the stock rom the phone is going to get UNROOTED, I know this cause I work at Sprint... So good luck...

I definitely wont rule out hardware issues...this is a refurb device i just swapped my original EVO for on Monday. I guess I just want to rule out any software issues for sure.
You mention that re-booting the stock rom will UNROOT the phone...however I hav no way to currently re-boot the rom??
Also looks like i can not get into recovery now, when I select the option in the bootloader it just takes me to the screen with a picture of a device and a red triangle

Request for Virgin Mobile Stock

Hello all,
So I bought my HTC Wildfire S Virgin Mobile on black friday like everybody else. I waited a few days and then rooted. And then I had the brilliant idea to try installing the CM 7.1 Mod for it. And well, I didn't do a Clockwork Backup, and well, it didnt work very well. The phone got stuck on the HTC screen. So finally I installed a different ROM, JikantaruROM, and I managed to get past the bootscreen but I can't use my carrier anymore. So I was wondering if anybody could either tell me how to flash CM 7.1 Unoffical release to my phone, or if anybody knew a way I could get back to the original Virgin Mobile software. It seems that you have all the other stock roms, so I would REALLY appreciate if someone could share the Virgin Mobile rom too.
Thanks in advance,
Wieland959
Seconded. Although I think mine is in a slightly worse case; I kept flashing roms and ended up in a state where it turns on, screen remains black, then the phone vibrates three times and evidently does nothing. So Wieland959, I'd advise you to stop flashing until someone posts the ROM.
And if someone could let me know how to recover from my current state, I'd very much appreciate it.

Your in the same boat I was just in. My solution was to go back to radioshack with the receipt and tell them it just turned off and wouldnt turn back on. Just doing the 3 vibrations. I did spend hours trying to search about how to fix it, but I dont think theres a way unless you use a jtag hookup and some sort of fancy programmer.
@Wieland959, If you want. I just tried to do the OTA update through the settings on the phone itself. It would let me download the file(I believe it should be flashable through the cwm recovery), but when I tried to let the phone install the file, I would get the android with the exclamation mark after the reboot. Ill try to post here, if it will upload. But......
DISCLAIMER!!!!
I take no responsibility for anyone damaging their phone using the file here. This file, as far as I know, should only work with the Wildfire S Virgin Mobile USA CDMA model A510C as this is the phone the file was downloaded from.
Thank you for the file, but I couldn't flash it. What might work though, if you are willing is, if you have rooted your phone, to make a cwm backup and upload that here. From there I should be able to recover and then factory wipe my phone. But thank you anyways for the file. I will keep kicking until the phone doesn't boot.
How are you planning on restoring from backup if the phone doesn't even boot?
Sorry, I'm new to this...

Thanks for the backup! It worked perfect for me!
would you mind if i posted the link on another forum? i know of a couple people looking for a backup aswell.
You should be able to switch back with the recovery no problem. Correct me if I'm wrong, but to install boot into recovery, install from SD, select specific, and select the zip of the rom. Also, I don't have my phone on me so the wording might be a little different.
MMS is a known issue with the rom from what I've read. I don't have it installed personally.
@brandonhun, Thank you so much. You're a life saver. As far as the rom goes, it still have sense on it and there are tons of MMS errors. So just wait and eventually something will pop up.

I haven't done this ROM change but if its the stock HTC Sense go to personalize and get HTC widgets (perhaps its get more HTC widgets) and you should find an update to the clock widget. That should give you the original clock plus a bunch more new ones.

Clockword Mod / Rom Manager Observation

I noticed something weird here, I backup up my system with rom manager, and flashed cyanogen 7. Cyanogen decided to loop its boot animation constantly. So I think ok restore, go into restore choose menu options and press power button. All I got was a logo from rom manager on screen and nothing else. So after panicing a little I realised something, it would seem in the current version of clockwork recovery that the button assignments have changed, the power button no longer selects menu options but the circular button in the centre of the bottom row of buttons does!
Just thought I'd mention this in case anyone else has similar worries as it doesn't seem to be documented anywhere I have looked.

rom manager is known for f*****g up phones and CWM recovery has problems to when it comes to partitioning sdcards, ditch them both and go for 4ext recovery its better in everyway.
Oh and bout asking erklat about whats the best rom to use..... well... good luck with that lol

I think advising him to send me a pm asking that would have probably been a good joke

Erklat is right, there is no reason to use ROM Manager (i said it before countless times), and do yourself a favor and switch recovery to 4ext.
just looked at 4Ext recovery control, it ain't exactly user friendly is it. Damn thing says it needs updating then refuses to do so, and also insists on busybox which wants to take what little internal memory I have left. Thank god I kept a restore image!
