Touch version is a test. Not sure if it will work properly but the classic version should be fully working. Let me know of any problems.

At least on my device, the touch recovery does *not* work, but the classic recovery *does*. Cheers!

One more thing to note: mounting the internal storage/sdcard does not seem to work either.

I'll take down the Touch and get a test build out....Will never work mounting the storage The internal sdcard is actually located in /data/media. It can not be mounted as storage. The only way is to use ADB commands.

That's quite a shame then. Flashing from /sdcard is by far easier to manage than using adb sideload.... :'(

Adb sideload or adb push to the sdcard.

I tried adb pushing to /sdcard while running the recovery image, but it still refused to flash from there because it would fail trying to mount /sdcard. adb sideload was the only method that actually worked. Unless I'm missing something...

Not sure. Newer HTC phones are strange in the recovery. You mind testing TWRP?

Sure, I'll test it shortly.

So, were you able to successfully root the First as well? Or was that back-and-forth about adb loading/side-loading about root? I tried re-reading the posts, but my newb-translator is on the fritz.

Yes, I have successfully rooted my First with the recovery and Superuser zip from the first post. Flash the recovery and reboot into it, then choose install zip from sideload, and then have your phone connected to the PC with the superuser zip, and run `adb sideload path/to/Superuser.zip`. Once that completes, reboot the phone, and you should have full root access.

Thanks for spelling that out. Beers headed for you and flyhalf. Can't wait to get home and root my First!

Thanks Glad everything is working out. Uploading a new TWRP build if anyone likes that better.

I've added a few extra features into the classic version of CWM. Power off option in the menu and reboot to bootloader in advance menu. Regular CWM doesn't have those

Is it not possible to just put zip on sdcard and choose install zip from sdcard?

Since the recovery currently can't mount the sdcard partition, any attempt to flash from sdcard fails. The only method that works afaik is the option to flash via sideload, which requires the phone to be attached to a PC running adb. I'm not certain, but it sounds like this would also prevent the CyanogenMod built-in update mechanism to fail as well...

Can you see the folders on the sdcard when you go to install zip from sdcard?

No.

Okay. I'll need to look over my configs again. New build of twrp graphics should be fixed. See if you can see sdcard on that.

EDIT: I think I see what I did wrong in my config file. Building a new build.

New build of CWM classic is up. Internal storage should work.

Internal storage worked like a charm! Thanks again FlyHalf!
