[RECOVERY] ClockworkMod Recovery for G2

My power button's broken it helped me to reboot my phone. will the next update will fix the CWR?? i hope not
After upgrading to a new version of ROM Manager you mean ? What did you upgrade exactly ? Or did you flash a new ROM ?
Are you saying it will boot ok, just not into recovery ? Or it won't boot at all ? If it just won't boot into recovery then try flashing Clockwork again.
When do recovery .img's get updated, such as v3? In other words, I am really struggling with manual efforts and would rather wait, for safety purposes... Thanks
Had the same problem I think.
I uppdated to cm7 with cw3, and did a nandroid backup with cw3 bevor. When I tried to restore my backup, cw3 said finished. But on booting it stayed on the HTC logo.
So I went into bootloader (volume down and power) and flashed via fastboot the `old` cw2.4.1 image or something like that (the actual cw recovery of v2). After that, I could restore the backup and it bootet fine.

For Reference
If you use adb install of terminal:
Use adb shell in command box instead of su
Assuming you dont have flash_image installed, the instructions are:
1-Download flash_image and copy to root of SD card.
2-*rename file to recovery* and copy recovery.img to the root of the SD card.
or
Placing the files in root of your C:\
adb push C:\flash_image /system/bin/flash_image
adb push C:\recovery.img /sdcard/recovery.img

Too perform a change of your recovery image you MUST HAVE ROOT AND BE S-OFF

If you already have Flash_image installed these are the steps I used and worked:

You might get errors when you perform the rm commands, that's ok.

So I wanna setup a script to push my rom the the sdcard, reboot recovery, flash the rom, and reboot.
I'm wondering how to pass the command to flash the rom to recovery from adb/terminal.
From what I've seen, I'd be working with /cache/recovery/command, right?

ROM Manager is free on the market and does exactly that - even asks if you want to wipe/nandroid before flashing the ROM. Once you choose, it reboots into recovery, wipes/nandroid/flashes (whatever you chose), and then automatically reboots when it's done.
Thanks for the quick reply, I already know about Rom Manager though.
The thing is that I'd love to do it all from a single script from my computer, because I always download roms on it. I'm most likely just a short command passed to recovery, which would solve my lazyness.
Basically I'm a lazy ass and would like to make things happen in less steps.
Aha, you didn't mention you wanted to do that from your computer in the first post. You're correct, ROM Manager won't help there, lol.
I flashed Clockwork Recovery via Rom Manager then flashed the Persian Font zip and have lost the boot animation. I've never used Clockwork on my Desire before so I don't know what the expected behavior is.
Has anyone else lost their boot animation after flashing Clockwork? Tried pushing bootanimation.zip to /data/local but had no change.

If I wan't to try CM7 i need to install CWR 3.x .
I've found online CWR 3.0.0.0 , 3.0.0.2 , 3.0.0.5 . Which is the more stable?
I've tried 3.0.0.0 and it' can't restore a backuo made with 2.5.1.3. Is that normal?

From what I have heard, if your on a 3.x recovery, you can't restore backups made on a 2.x recovery, you would have to flash back the 2.x recovery before you could use your old backup again.
whenever i try to backup my current rom it keeps sending me an error message that it is unable to mount system. any thoughts?
I have read that you need to mount the /system partition first from within the recovery. Or something like that, I don't remember who said it or what for but I just remembered it and thought that it might help.
Cannot turn off my vision/G2 after clockwork recovery flash
I recently rooted and flashed the clockwork recovery (version 2.5.1.3) and now when I turn off the phone (with quick boot app or by holding power button down and selecting "power off") the phone appears to shut down for about 2 seconds then automatically is booted into recovery mode! Has anyone else seen this? Is this known with my version? Has anyone erased the recovery and re flashed with negative consequences in my situation?
EDIT:erased and re flashed cw: this has not changed/resolved the issue....
EDIT #2: OK, so all this happens ONLY when plugged into the HTC wall charger. If I unplug the phone and turn it off it will stay off...until I plug it into the wall again. Once plugged in it will automatically boot up into recovery mode without ANY buttons being pressed! Peculiar bug I must say; any ideas?

18Installation instructions:
- YOUR PHONE MUST ALREADY BE S-OFF. SEE THE OTHER THREADS IN THIS FORUM ON HOW TO DO THAT.
- I recommend getting on Wi-Fi.
- Download ROM Manager from the Market. You MUST have at least 2.5.0.6.
- Flash Recovery.
- Choose G2 as your phone.
- Accept the Superuser prompt.
- Use ROM Manager to create a Backup.
- Watch the backup go!
That's it! This is completely painless and safe!
If you appreciate my work, please buy the Premium version of ROM Manager!
If you can't seem to get ROM Manager off the market, you can get it from my homepage:
http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image.html
http://koush.tandtgaming.com//recoveries/RomManager.apk
Or to manually install the recovery via fastboot, use this:
http://koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.2-vision.img3Sorry for the wait.
sorry for the slow response... busy with the dayjob... I'm sure you understand. If you can mirror it, be my guest... hopefully megaupload allows more downloads.

So I decided to play around with the clockworkmod recovery image for version 2.5.1.3 to try to mimic the charging state that the OTA recovery does when it displays the battery icon... and got it to behave properly sans the battery image by just adding /sbin/offmode_charging (and some other ones form OTA) and the service line associated with starting the binaries to init.rc (all taken from OTA recovery)... my G2 still has CM 2.5.1.3 but now I can leave the phone off and it will continue to charge without the screen being on, when you unplug it it will turn off (confirmed through an "uptime" through abd), and when you press the power button with it plugged in it will boot up to normal mode.... if anyone is interested in the recovery.img with these mods, here's a link:
http://rapidshare.com/files/442828224/recovery-clockworkmod-vision-offmode_charging.img
NOTE: your phone IS still on when you plug it in after turning it off (meaning you can ADB into it, and check uptime and such)... however... if the power goes out or you unplug it... it will turn OFF and stay off.2Everytime I have my charger plugged and turn the phone off, it goes straight to recovery mode and I can turn it off fully
Anyone else have a similar problem?
Simple answer:
From the developer:
New development posted just 15 posts prior to your question:
Or alternatively, you can go back to the stock recovery or the stock engineering recovery (if you search, there are already tons of threads on this).2OffMode Charging
Actually this is easily fixable. (if only i knew c and had the exact source for the vision version of clockwork recovery)
The device boots with the kernel parameter "androidboot.mode=offmode_charging"
as can be seen via "cat /proc/cmdline"
Its also in /cache/recovery/log" as "ro.bootmode=offmode_charging"
Someone needs to implement a charging program into clockwork recovery that checks for this variable on bootup and launches a charging gui with true charging led control and a progressbar.
When the charger/usb is unplugged it simply exits recovery and turns off the phone.
