Hello guys,
I have a little question. Is it possible to install a custom rom with terminal commands, maybe with adb or fastboot, via fastboot or in recovery?

Thanks for your help :)

Try
fastboot update whatever.zip

I'm not responsible if you brick your phone or anything like that

Is there a way to retrieve the past few terminal commands? Then we can try replicate what rom manager did.

In the sdcard/clockworkmod folder there is a report.log file. Check it out.

run this
Code:
 adb shell recovery --update_package=/sdcard/name_of_downloaded_zip.zip
where /sdcard/name_of_downloaded_zip.zip is the location and name of the rom you wish to use

ADB or Fastboot will never work. I can't explain why ATM. Technical stuff. Maybe there is a file that has its part in booting into recovery.
