That did not work. error recovery.img doesnt exist. when using adb. and flash_image not found when using emu.

You're missing a space between the "recovery" and "/sdcard...."

That is a CW 3 Recovery for Gingerbread. ROM Manager hasn't been updated so even if you have the correct recovery, ROM manager will still say 2.5.x.x
Reboot into recovery to see if it actually worked. The text will be yellow in 3.x.x.x or blue in 2.5.x.x
If you use terminal emulator it will give you a blank line after you flash_image.
