[RECOVERY] ClockworkMod Recovery *CDMA Edition* (Final Version)

[bmkdroid]

Ok, seems to be working great, only bad thing is it seems I do not have an easy way to return to stock recovery as I can't just rename that file back to its original name?

You know, that's a good question. I don't recall seeing anything about that. I can only assume that flashing back to stock would overwrite any changes associated with rooting.

what happens is if you flash a rom, it clears out /system, so you would have had to backup the file locally before doing any flashing.

I unlocked , then rooted did a backup via clockwork then flashed ? i was supposed to back that file up ? wow i had no idea soooo now how to i make it clockwork permanent if there is no file?

You can use adb via your PC, or terminal emulator on your phone to do it.

adb shell
su
mv /system/recovery-from-boot.p /system/recovery-from-boot.bak

^that is for adb. If you want to use a terminal emulator ( https://market.android.com/details?id=jackpal.androidterm ) you will skip the adb shell line.
