New Clockwork Recovery (5.0) released!

New clockwork recovery for D2/DX is coming soon...if you want to help test, join irc.feenode.net, #koush.

EDIT:

Clockwork Recovery 5.0.0.8 is released...however...flashed it in ROM Manager, but it just said "downloaded successfully" and didn't show flash progress, and boot into recovery from ROM Manager and from power button still takes me to 2.5.0.8 recovery.

In the past, selecting the "Flash Clockwork Mod Recovery" would download and flash the recovery - might be a two step (download/flash like a ROM) process now...need some more information.

OK...here's what you do:

1. Open ROM Manager and select "Flash Clockwork Recovery" to download the new recovery. OR Go to My Brain Hurts: ROM Manager and Clockwork Recovery Image and download it and place it on your SD card

2. Boot into Recovery

3. Select Install zip from SD card and select the file "recovery-clockwork-5.0.0.8-droid2.zip" from Clockwork>Downloads>Recoveries if you downloaded using ROM Manager (or from wherever you put it if you downloaded from the web site)

4. Flash completes and everything turns blue...you're on 5.0.0.8

I'd like to know what's new with this too. Any insight on that information?

Haven't seen an entire change list, but the backup file format is going to Tar, and the backup process is supposed to be much faster.

I just backed up on the new version and the process took just as long as it did before. I've seen no improvements in that area.

What is the changelog for this update? The only new thing I see is a power off option. What am I missing?
