[Q] Can't use the Recovery Mode

[sikas]

Hello Guys,

I've followed the steps from Here and currently installed the Clockwork Mod Recovery v5.0.2.7

When I go to the Recovery (Power+Vol Down) I get the ClockworkMod Recovery Menu, but nothing works!!

When I choose, for example, "power off" or "reboot system now", the menu disappears and only keeps the Hat Icon only. When I press the power button, the menu comes back .. Don't know what is wrong.

Another thing, I want to flash the device with either ICS or JB, don't know which works better on the Desire Z. Can someone guide me from where to get the ROM and how to successfully install it?

Thanks, that worked.

Now my other question, which is better with the Desire Z?

Unfortunately you won't get an answer from me on this as its against xda rules, if you look through the thread I linked you there is just about every ROM ever made for the vision there, try one out, make a nandroid, try another. This will be the best advice I can give you

We have to stick to the rules

Ok, last thing, how can I install it to the device?? I'm pretty noob here :silly:

The thread I linked you has all that information and more, but for the most part
Download ROM (+anything else required)
Put on root of SD
Boot to recovery
Make a nandroid backup
Wipe ALL
Flash ROM (etc)
Reboot
But I really recommend to read through that link
