    5. Confirm phone model as "LT26i"
    6. Confirm version as "ClockworkMod 3.x+"
    7. Click OK at the next prompt

    thats it ROM Manager is now configured to use this recovery :)

    [ credits / special thanks ]

      • its like a toggle
      • once u have finished choosing which partitions u want just click on "perform backup" and only those partitions will be backed up!!!

    34. changed "wipe data/factory reset" option to just "factory reset", and detailed the partitions which will be wiped
