Supposedly Clockwork recovery works on the milestone according to the developer

I was wondering if it is true or did he just assume that it does because the milestone is essentially a droid

Interesting. Regardless, it's only a matter of time before the exploit for the Droid X gets ported over to our Milestones!
I just tried the Clockwork Recovery, but the Milestone doesn't accept it because the signature was not correct.

I can confirm it starts up now, you have to move it to /sdcard/OpenRecovery/updates, then in your OpenRecovery menu, launch it from Miscellaneous-->Apply update
It's the same as OpenRecovery almost, I don't know what else to do..
Well that's interesting that it actually works! Got further than me
But could we not flash this as the default recovery rather than having to apply the update.zip and then updating via the recovery?
Sorry to resurrect, but can you confirm that Clockwork works on Milestone, and subsequently ROM Manager as well (since it only works with Clockwork).
Also, what are the differences btwn G.O.T. (which I'm using now) and Clockwork, and which do you prefer?
Thx

essentially its only the same concept , afaik clockwork uses sprecovery we use 'adb recovery' so what we call nandroid backup is not compatible form one another .
essentially they are no benefits of using either ..except for the fact that Openrecovery was built for the milestone . ie there is no reason at allto try and use anthing else .
Got ' OR is not the only one around , they are a few , its only a question of taste witch one you prefer , although the recovery loader built in GOT's allows you to load any recovery you want from within GOT's witch makes it my favorite choice ..
i've done a lot of searching and haven't been able to figure out why i cannot flash the latest roms. example, i can flash the nightly build 283 but not the most recent 295. the latest miui rom and the GB ones. everytime i try to flash i get E:Can't open /sdcard/xxx (bad). it is really starting to irritate the crap out of me. my boot loader is unlocked, hboot v.0.33.0012, and amon ra 2.0 recovery. i tried partitioning my sd card with 128mb swap, 1024mb ext3, and it hasn't helped any. if anyone has any ideas i would appreciate any help i can get.

switched to rom manager, still no luck, same message...
still don't know why, but i decided to swap my 32gb card for the 4gb that came with the phone, first rom i tried i got an error 7 message, the second finally flashed, so it has something to do with the sd card apparently... i just flashed gingerpassion, i'm going to keep on playing and see if i can figure out what my problem is

I wish I could say "Nice try, you're getting the hang of this forum thing," but unfortunately you still don't have a clue. This is not an issue that has anything at all to do with ROM Manager (which is really only a frontend to Clockwork Recovery, anyway). PLEASE "lurk more". That is, read posts rather than just making pointless posts. Then you will know a few things and be able to help people out.
(apologies to the OP)

That does certainly sound like an SD issue. I would recommend doing a full format of the 4GB (without doing any partitioning to remove any extra variables), and then trying to flash one of the ROMs that were giving you trouble. If it fails, there is an option under the Other menu in Amon_RA's recovery that will allow you to export the recovery log to your SD card. Do that, and post that log (or even just review it on your own) and we should be able to better determine where the issue lies.
Good luck!
So for the past two days I've been trying to flash the new AOSP Gingerbread ROM, but although I follow everything straight from the wiki it always seems to get stuck on the HTC screen after the last reboot. Help me please!
EDIT: So I somehow got the rom to boot last night using RA recovery but after loading up a notice says Setup Wizard not being able to respond...etc, etc. Also after booting my home, call, and search buttons don't work at all. not even for other roms. PLEASE HELP!
020211 So after following instructions from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11078749&postcount=4860 i was finally able to boot CM7 fully and without problems. If you're having problems with booting aosp's gingerbread rom just use this guy's instructions (at the bottom) and you should be good to go.
Make sure u install manually through clockworkmod mod first format boot system data and cache then install the rom let it boot then reboot and install gapps without wiping and reboot then you should be good I'm using the normal clockworkmod 2.5.2 and it works great
Sent from my HTC Hero CDMA using XDA App
okay thanks! ill try that and get back to you.
so no luck at booting. i'm still stuck at the HTC Boot screen.
i tried also and still no luck .. i hate this
to anybody having problems flashing GB, try these steps EXACTLY:
1) use clockwork 2.5.0.1 and follow the wipe/format process in the wiki
2) flash the rom then gapps
3) FLASH A CAPPED 691 KERNEL
This seems to be a continued issue, and I think it is because some phones can't handle high clock speeds like 768. The recovery currently posted by aosp (cwm 3.0.0.5) is overclocked and therefore will not boot, same with the kernel in the rom. Report back here if it works, I have already updated the wiki to advise people of this. Good Luck.
So i tried it again with the capped kernel and it still didn't work. also tried it without firerat's MOD but still a no go.
I'm upgrading aosp 2.3.2 rom from nightly build #188. Before flashing aosp rom plesae try to wipe everything like data, dalvik-cache, battery and rotate status. BTW, I'm using RA-Recovery not ClockworkMod.
i installed it after the standard wipes and thats it and its working just fine at 768 on my hero200. didnt have any issues and im loving the rom, but i am having one issue. this link is to my issue in q and a. if you can help feel free to hop on my thread and reply. other than that, i juast wanted to say this rom is great!

Well, I hate to say it but you must be missing a step somewhere. FYI in the OP for gingerbread the cwm3.0.0.5 is now capped at 691, so try that one again. Wipe both wipe options, go to mounts and format boot,system,data,cache, then gn into advanced wipe dalvik twice. Flash the rom,gapps,deca #43 capped 691 kernel, reboot. The first boot should take a while so be patient. Report back here if you can't get it, and I would recommend going into the live help room (aospbot IRC) which in the OP for GB. Good luck.
So still no luck. But I'm determined to somehow fix this no matter how many times I try!

I think you should back up your sd card and then format it in your pc. Then start all over. From the recovery on down. Skip any mods till you get booted up. Like keyboards and boot screens etc. And try the capped cwm recovery. Hope it helps good luck

Still no luck on booting aospCMod. Like they say no two heroes are the same. But that doesn't mean I'm still not going to try again and again and again (xinfinity).
got it to boot but...
so i somehow got it to boot using ra-recovery but right as i loads it says the setup wizard has unexpetedly stopped processing. any help?

Glad I could help man! Glad to see you got it worked out!
There's a readme in the Aosp 2.3.2 OP. It's right under the files, labeled README. I think it would help if anyone having trouble actually reads through this. skipping steps causes problems.
also, Factory reset skips over the /system partition. I recommend wiping /system partition if you're coming from another rom, or if you are decided to start fresh. You have to go into the partitions menu to actually format the /system partition.

This is true if you use CWM (which I do not ) but if you fastboot wipe all the partitions you will have no issues w/ RA as the OP discovered once he used the instructions that I posted.
touble with vvm
uh not quite sure if this is rite place to post this but looked better than the rest, so i got the rom running fine and it is wonderful improvement to my what use to be my wifes stock hero. Only problem is with the visual voice mail, i copied it from the stock hero before flashing, than after flashing copied it back, it works in the sense that i can see the voicemail in the app and even the voicemail to text works, but 2 things are wrong, 1 is i cant clear voicemail notification in the status bar without rebooting phone, and now she gets a text from a 9069 that tells her phone has recieved a voicemail, found a work around for the second one i blocked the number using blacklist so the text dont come thru nomore, but how i can i fix the fact that the only way to clear the voicemail notification is to reboot the phone? Any help, comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Or is there somewhere i can dl the latest sprint vvm app?? or are they device specific. Thank you in advance for any help
Hello everyone!
I know this issue has been discussed many times in many forums, but no-one can find a final solution to this problem.
I have a LG P990 bought in Portugal, and I installed CWM 5.0.2.8 with internal and external SD support.
My problem is everytime I want to flash something on my phone, I reboot into recovery mode, and when I enter CWM, my phone vibrates like a dildo. I tried several versions of CWM, and the problem persists.
You might say "you can always use Paul's version from Modaco"... yeah, I could. But since I use an external SD card, that is not a viable solution to my problem.
The strange thing is, this doesn't happen on all P990 devices...
I'm not sure about the vibration issue you're having...
but other CWMs should be able to access external SD as well. AFAIK, older versions of CWM couldn't access internal SD, but all could access external SD.
And for what it's worth, I use 5.0.2.7 and it can access both internal and external.

Right, Paul's @Modaco version (4.0.0.5) can only access one of them... If you don't have an external SD, CWM will mount the internal one, but if you have an external SD, CWM wouldn't recognize the internal.
That's the version I use, and the only one that won't make my phone vibrate like a dildo.
No matter how I install CWM, either using ROM Manager, or NVflash or whatever, the result is always the same... The phone vibrates...
I may be wrong, but it seems that temasek is the one who compiled the first p990-compatible CWM 5.0.2.8 back in January.

Is that the same one you are using? If not, try his. If yes, maybe you can ask him?
Or maybe Rusty
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27176594&postcount=695
I'll try temasek's version. I had the vibration problems with Rusty's compilation. I'll take a look and get back to you.

Tried temasek's version of CWM. Has the same vibrating issue... reverting back to Paul's version.

Sorry to hear that. This is real strange.
You do have a p990 o2x and not a su660 o2x, right? The only thing else I can think of is the slight difference in hardware between phones...
Or one other thing we could try is looking at the command lines for Paul's cwm and compare to temasek/rusty's. Can you send me a link for paul's?
EDIT: Never mind. I found it. I'll let you know if I see anything....
I'm pretty sure it's a O2x, which goes by the name LG Maximo 2x.
Here's Paul's version of CWM:
http://www.modaco.com/topic/335479-29-jun-4005-clockworkmod-recovery-for-the-lg-optimus-2x/
sorry korgndm, but I dont' have any good news.
I had trouble unpacking the .img files. I tried to use bsdiff to see what might be different between the two cwms (apart from the internal/external support) but was not successful.
Logically, if it worked without vibration with paul's, then it's not hardware issue. it's just a matter of coding/compiling the recovery img properly. but now, it's beyond my abilities...
I also considered that it could be a baseband issue. I'm using V20Q with stock rom, and never used anything else.
I'm planning on flashing my phone today with another BB, maybe 20s or 21y, then installing CWM again using the bat files, not using ROM Manager, and see what happens.
ok. kindly report back with how it goes when you get a chance, because i remember reading somewhere that changing BB/RIL didn't help with this. But wish you better luck with your phone!

All hope is lost
No luck flashing with another BB, or another version of CWM. The "dildo sindrome" persists... S**T!
EDIT: Found a solution to the problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508824
Congrats on finding the solution! So your o2x is su660 after all?
Do you have four or three buttons in the bottom?
If it is three, you have a su660 and that's what I was asking before.
Sent from my LG-SU660 using xda premium
I definitely have four buttons on the bottom. I double checked the label under the battery and it says "LG P990 Made in Korea".
I DO have a small problem with this CWM version, though... It won't mount the internal storage, neither will it mount USB. In another words, it will only recognize my external SD (which, BTW, is a piece of crap!), and if I want to copy a file to it, I have to either boot the phone normally and use a file manager, or remove the SD card and pop it in my laptop.
Any suggestions?
Have you tried adb while in Recovery mode?
If you can connect that way, maybe you can manually mount through shell.

I must confess I'm new to this "world", and I really don't have many computing or programming skills, but I suppose you're talking about using a terminal / terminal emulator... If you could kindly explain the procedure, I would appreciate it.
Yes I was talking about using the terminal. I will have to look for the instructions, written by much smarter and more knowledgeable people than me.
In the mean time, this excellent post with guides may be helpful.

And if usb connection doesnt work for whatever reason and all you want to do is copy files to the phone, perhaps this tip from xda TV might help too :

The example in the video is with a Ubuntu machine, but you can follow the same steps for using PC with Putty and WinSCP.

Hi.
Firstly, i should start by apologizing for my stupidity and complete failure to be less... useless, when it comes to my phone.
I am selling my Galaxy note, which is rooted and has ICS Stunner 2 on it, with 'cwm-based recovery v6.0.2.7 (if that helps)
My issue is, Before selling my phone I took out my 'external SD' card and decided to reformat/nuke my internal SD, thinking that the firmware would remain intact and the thing would still be useable if i repartitioned it or whatever.. Again, a bit new to this..
Anyhow, half way through formatting the internal SD the process was interrupted. I can boot the phone, but when I do anything that requires use of the internal SD (saving photos, downloading apps... and in cwm recovery, even factory reset) it wont work
In fact, when I try a factory reset it says 'Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure
I would love to know what I am meant to do to fix this, and of course am willing to provide any info you may need to help me out here..
As i was typing this the phone got sold and I am now running against the clock to make this work...
please, help!
Thank you so much and I again apologize.
