Re: Couple questions about Clockwork Mod Recovery

Now here is the rub, rom manager won't work with AmanRA but you definitely want AmanRA. Here is the problem, when you use clockworkmod to do a nandroid backup it doesn't back up everything, and an important item that it doesn't back up is the RSA keys. What are the RSA keys you ask, I don't know the technical but you must have them for 4g to work so if you lose them your 4g will be busted and you can't get them back. So, how do I lose them you ask? If you install a new radio or a custom rom that installs a new radio and the install fails and you have to revert back to your nandroid backup your screwed because clockworkmod didn't back up your RSA keys and there is no way to get them back, if you want 4g you need a new phone. SO the solution, is to install AmanRA 1.8 recovery which does back up you RSA keys and if you need to do a nandroid backup you will be good to go and your 4g will still work. Sorry you paid for rom manager because it is pretty much useless except for switching recoveries and booting into recovery.

I keep hearing 4G doesnt work on 90% of custom roms. Which is why I'm still running stock. I want to try other ROMS but if 4G is not gonna work, its not worth switching
