Hey guys, I am trying to help a friend of mine flash a custom ROM on his AT&T Galaxy S
I rooted it without a problem and am now trying to flash CWM in order to flash a ROM
The problem is when I search Market for Rom Manager only the paid version comes up and there is no way to find the free version
Is there a way I can flash CWM thru terminal emulator or stock recovery?
so you cannot get into recovery?I wish it were that easy, nothing comes up with either searches. I can find it on the PC Market and try to beam it to the phone with no luck. I think this is something AT&T did to the Market
so you cannot get into recovery?
Sent from my phone, not yours.
I can get into stock recovery, but I am not sure how I can flash clockworkmod recovery, is there an alternate way such as update.zip or terminal emulator?
how can i find out, i assume its 2e, this phone was never rooted or updated, been on 2.1 eclair all this time, and all i did was root it, now i need to install a custom recovery, or possibly install a custom ROM that will allow me to install rom manager to install a custom recovery, but that is more risky if it doesnt flash smoothly
There is an update.zip of cwr somewhere out there, give me a second and I will try to hunt it down for you, though technically you could just take the rom you want (assume that it is Touchwiz based or cm7, NO ICS) and name it update.zip.

rename it update.zip and flash

Awesome, much appreciated, I tried some ADB guides, etc and had no luck at all

Failed the first time. Left me in the stock recovery menu and gave a recovery error when clockwork first started. Flashed again and tried to backup a second time. Looks like it worked perfect! Now we need some froyo!

OK, I'm posting here as a last resort. I searched through forum threads and searched google for half the day yesterday. Perhaps I'm missing something simple and you guys can help me out.
I rooted the stock 2.1 vibrant using z4root, purchased and installed ROM manager premium and flashed clockwork recovery (with the understanding that the update.zip stays on the SD card and I must reinstall package each time to enter it). All this seems to work fine.
The issue is that I cannot flash a new ROM (nero 5). i have tried installing through ROM manager and booting into Clockwork recovery and choosing to install .zip from SD card. The backup and data wipe process works but when it begins to install the ROM the process is aborted saying it cannot find the file. The .zip is in the root of the SD card and is not named "update".
I am able to create and install the blackhole 1.1 ROM using ROM manager which works fine. If I try to install any other update, I'm unable to restore a nandroid because I cannot load Clockwork recovery, even after selecting reinstall package. At this point I have to restore using Odin.
If anyone could help me out I would appreciate it. If you need a screen shot of the error I can recreate it and post it.
