Re: need help with recovery

They both backup the same elements in Nandroid, they both work with the new partitions and Hboots, they both flash custom roms, they both allow you to change directories on the sd card to search for the .zip file you want to flash. In other words, they are both good recoveries and either will work.

Now, if you look at the top of rom manager and it lists one of the ClockworkMod Recoveries that start with a 3.0 then you want to flash a new recovery. You can do this by scrolling down in Rom Manager and look for the heading more recoveries. There you will see an option to flash RA recovery 2.1.1 or flash older and experimental versions of ClockworkMod. There you will find the 2.6.0.1 version of clockworkmod.
Thanks. I really appreciate the help. I had no numbers listed there, so I hit All ClockworkMod Recoveries. It told me I had to install a recovery, so I did. Then I was able to select 2.6.0.1 and apply it. Not sure if that means I had no recovery or what, but it sounds squared away now.

Are CW 2.6.0.1 and RA 2.1.1 pretty much equal? I downloaded RA from the prior post and can apply it if that will makes things smoother should I decide to flash a rom.

Thanks again. Wish I could hit Thanks more times for you.
