[Q] install-recovery.sh removal for CWM to Work

[C0rr0ded]

OK... I have my Atrix Unlocked, Rooted and up on 2.3.4(4.5.91) Life is Good, however...

I am attempting to get the CWM (ROMRacers) onto my system so I can do the backups again and mess with the other ROM's. However, I am getting the same issue as a few others are, I go into Clockwork and tell it to load a ROM or just to backup and it puts me into the Android Recovery and not CWM. It seems that the install-recovery.sh file is the issue. I cannot remove/move/rename it with the SuperUser enabled ES File Explorer or other apps. Is there an adb shell command string I can use to do this? I am not familiar enough with it to want to just start slashing it without having the safety net of CWM in place.


I searched and came up with this nexus thread about deleting the file

I was working from this Atrix thread that referred to deleting the file if CWM is not acting correct:

Thnx! This is the first time I could not find a direct answer to the issue I was having.

What Ilkinansr92 said....

But if you are too cheap to buy root explorer like myself, es file explorer from the market does the same thing but it's free..

Settings> Mount /system as writable" and you are good to go.

OK.. was able to delete the file. Now to get it to play nice with CWM's low level.

Got it and was successful with a backup. Next (not right now) is to test the restore before I get stupid with a different ROM. I like where I am and will revert if the others are not to my liking...

Why? because it is not Steve's toy I am renting and I can!
