So the current iterations of cwm seem to have trouble working reliably with the newer froyo ROMs, and koush's recovery (although seeming to work correctly) is quite broken. So......
please find below a new recovery package that should work for any ROM for the fascinate, mesmerize, or showcase.
This is a "red" cwm recovery, and it will work with both voodoo and non-voodoo installations.
cwm-recovery-ALL.zip can be flashed via any cwm recovery.
if you are using odin, then use the cwm-recovery-ALL odin (.tar) package.
updated 3/29 - thanks to GizmoDroid for help with fixing fix_permissions script and root permissions typo that screwed up nandroid restores
updated 3/30 - fixed 'umount' typo - actually *fixed* fix_permissions this time - fixed odin/heimdall recovery attachment
Thanks, I just installed it. I'd rather not have a broken clockwork mod.
thanks, will give this a try!
ok, so I flashed this in the old cwm and it does come up red, but also says CwM Voodoo Lagfix Recovery, is that right?
In what ways is the old cm broken with froyo? I haven't noticed any problems.
Thanks! Good to have a fully working recovery again.

Yeah, I'd like to 2nd this question. I have DL30 and CW worked for me in setting that up. Granted, I haven't tried anything else after that, but I'd like to know too.
Well I've had weird things happen when flashing stuff (I was using the "new-cwm.zip") , seemed like data being written where it shouldn't be? Just flashing theme files or own stuff I want to add, and I've had the following stuff happen:
Nuked my radio, had an unknown baseband and calls would never work, fortunately Radio Odin fixed it.
Had some /data apps disappear. Had some /data/data disappear. On reboot had Setup Wizard pop-up, even though I still had my Google account registered.
Hoping this new clockwork is completely safe. I suspected that clockwork was responsible for my weird happenings, so data-wiped and haven't flashed anything, so far fine functioning.
Using this is it easy to flash back to a prior set up, for me it would be back to dj05 w superdark and voodoo5?
Ive been holding off on froyo bc I need wireless tether, preferably unreported tether. But I really want to play around and see what the fuss is about. Ive downloaded every dl30 rom, havent installed one fearing I cant go back easily

/data on the fascinate is on /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
koush's recovery mounts /data as mmcblk0p2 (THIS IS OUR /DATA/FOTA. THAT'S BAAADDD)
under most circumstances this does not matter , because recovery.rc mounts data CORRECTLY before cwm gets to it, but there are circumstances where /data can be unmounted and then remounted, in which case cwm is gonna mount mmcblk0p2. If things get written there, at best you've got a **** load of FC's to deal with. At worst, a dead radio.
I've pointed this out to koush before, but was met with a "half-response", and to date it not been addressed (except for the recoveries that I've posted)
installed. When I go to do a backup, it gives the messages below. Backup seems to run fine though
E: missing bitmap progress_empty (code -1)
E: missing bitmap progress_fill (code -1)

Thanks, jt.
Copied to sdcard, booted into recovery, ran the program, keep coming back to green, no red.
ETA: Interesting. If I go to recovery from ROM mgr and try to load from sdcard, it does nothing, but if (while in ROM Mgr) I load from SDcard, it works. Got the blue screen, ran update, red appeared.
I likewise get the error message mentioned previously, but got it at install. Backup seemed to ahve run fine.
Installed like a charm, thanks jt!

Thanks very much for addressing this issue.
For a while, I felt like a fresh n00blet, wondering what I was doing wrong. I tried flashing versions of supposedly compatible cwm's in different ways, always coming to the mounting errors.
Other than the errors from the missing graphics, this one works error free.
Scared to mess with this since i haven't experienced any problems with my current cwm stuff from pre dl09... Might just go ahead and do this tomorrow. For some reason I feel more comfortable using the odin method, so I can do all this over my Super Clean 1.0 with Neon GT theme and not have to do any data wiping or anything first?
So this makes no sense and I think its a weird coincident but as soon as I flashed this my beta version of swype started the force close loop..
EDIT: so weird, I had to uninstall the installer and swype itself using titanium backup and then download the installer and install again (had to do it all twice). Seems to be working again now tho..
Superclean 0.7.. aka Froyo.. Thanks devs!
it wont load past the HTC screen..
flashed WARM-3.5-evo3d-unofficial-r100.zip
from sdcard.
had down a factory wipe initially.. tried clearing dalvik cache again but still cannot get past htc screen. ugh
correction i flashed to r119.zip
Did you wipe system as well? How long are you giving it at the HTC Splash screen before you decide it's frozen? I haven't been keeping up to date with the Warm train lately, so I'm not sure if there have been any issues with the builds. I know back in the day, sometimes the build bot that myn used would bork a build from time to time and it wouldn't flash. Have you tried flashing any other builds, or just r119?
yes i did a complete wipe initially.. flashed.. got stuck at screen.. i left it there for 2-3 mins with no response.. just hovering at the HTC screen. I have not tried flashing any other roms as I wasnt sure what if any adverse affect this may have on the current problem

Before you go any further in trying to figure it out, I would let it sit at the HTC screen a bit longer than a couple minutes. I've had it hang there for 5 or 6 minutes on certain sense roms that I flash, especially on the first boot. Give it a solid 7 minutes or so, and if it's still hanging there..then yea it's stuck. After that, I would simply try flashing something else and see if it works. Perhaps you got a bad download as well, maybe try re downloading it.
suggestions on how to move rom to sdcard if phone isnt booting hence PC isnt seeing the drive?
is it possible to go back to stock rom if this doesnt work?

Transfer it to the SD card from recovery. I'm not sure what recovery you're on, but every recovery has the feature to mount the sd card from within recovery. It's like USB MS Toggle or something to that nature. In TWRP 2, I think it's under the 'mount' tab.
Did you just try turning it on again yet, and seeing if it will eventually get past the HTC Screen? Again, it could take a bit more than 2 or 3 minutes on the first boot.
EDIT: And yea, you should be able to get back to a stock ROM no problem, or at least get back to a functioning phone, lol. Did you make a nandroid of your stock setup right after you rooted, before you tried flashing warm?
no i didnt make a nandroid backup sadly. im letting it sit for 10 mins before i give up on tyhis version
I don't think that ROM will boot as I'm pretty sure it has no boot image in it. Joelz was doing some stuff on the later builds and removed the bootimage.
Go into the thread and look for Vin's post. He is on the front page or on post 2. He has been the one updating the ROM for Joelz. the last version I knew of was around 01/12 or so?

Ok, now you may have to call them ask to have your data reset. There is a specific thing to ask for. It's in the threads on how to root the Evo 3D.
So my phone is hanging at the "HTC" screen after a forced push today.

Then I went into (TWRP) recovery and when I tried to wipe cache I saw this:
E:Unable to mount '/emmc'

E:Unable to mount internal storage.
Formatting Cache using make_ext4fs...
Done.
Updating partition details...
E:Unable to mount '/emmc'

E:Unable to mount internal storage.
So it might have worked, but it's still hanging. Similar errors for Dalvik-Cache. Is this maybe related to whatever push they did that is hanging my phone?
If I need to load a new image I'd like a stock one for now but keeping TWRP. But when I try to use TWRP to mount the data I can only get to my SD card and not the internal storage and I don't want to lose the photos and whatnot that are on there. Help please?!

Thank you so much; I put AmonRa back on and was able to mount the USB drive and get my pictures off.
I also did a format data / factory reset (from AmonRa not HBOOT) and it's still stuck at "HTC". Does that mean I need to relock and run the RRU?

Verizon pushed an update this morning and my device is now stuck on the HTC screen. My nandroid backup didn't actually work because it run from TWRP which didn't work with the file system (as you pointed out). I just want to get my phone working again with an HTC stock ROM.
Download the 3.14.605.12 ruu and double check md5 and go from there.

TBH, I would flash a custom recovery and flash a rom just so you don't get the peskies for the OTA.
Got unlocked, s-off, and rooted...cant mount /cache
So I got my replacement rezound yesterday.
Today I have gotten the bootloader unlocked, rooted, s-off... I screwed it up last night and had to run an RUU so now my phone is running:
4.03
sense 3.6
3.14.605.12 71ord
1.22.10.0421r, 1.22.10.10.042r
When I go to recovery and attempt to install Tron 2.0 I get an error at the end that says "cannot mount '/cache'". It appears to install properly except for that error. When I reboot it bootloops, and have to go back to recovery and restore.
I don't know what to do next to fix this any help would be great! I think I will try to update twrp next because i flashed the one that comes with hasoons tool kit.
hi
i have a problem like this
my rezound hang on htc logo only
phone is S-off , i tried install 3 Ruu Roms , 100% finish , but stock on logo yet
so i unlocked bootloader , installed TWRP Recovery , in wipe data i seen this error :
unable to mount emmc
then i changed recovery to CWM , then wipe and installed a custom rom
my phone is up now !! but in setting it show me :
internal storage : 2 gb
phone storage : unavalaible
and when i want dial any number phone restarts

This is your issue... "emmc" is the internal storage where all your partitions are (/system, /data, /cache, etc)... Your internal 16GB storage chip has reached the end of it's life, a common Rezound issue of late. Sorry, there is nothing you can do, you might be able to get it working in the short term, but the chances this will fix itself or not just continue to get worse are slim to none. Time for a new device unfortunately.

I don't believe this is true. I recall issue with newer ROMs such a CM causing this. @alishadlou Try going back to an older ROM like ecliptic sense before you throw it in the trash.

Except if you read the post I was referring to, the user in question is S-Off, had tried three different RUU's, and different ROMs and recoveries without success... I stand by my initial evaluation, bad emmc, it is quite common in Rezounds recently for some reason.

Yes I read and had pretty much the same issues which were resolved by an even older ROM. I had to flash twice for it to stick. Just throwing it out there so not everyone thinks their phone is dead before it really is.

Gotcha... It is always possible, I just know this seems to be common among Rezounds over the last 6 months or so, even bone stock ones, I don't know if it's a hardware version, or a specific internal storage chipset, or what... but there has been a much higher than "normal" failure rate among Rezounds recently... And yet my 5 year old Aria is still going strong, minus the occasional random reboot.
I have searched and I've found no answers for this. I picked up my phone today and it was unresponsive. I pulled the battery to restart it, would get to the white HTC screen then nothing. Went to recovery TWRP 2.3.2.3 and was greeted with a long list of "E: unable to..." everything. Can't mount system, emmc, data etc. Cannot restore, cannot install, cannot wipe. PH98IMG.zip does not load from sd card. I am pretty sure it's not a formatting issue.
Am I the proud owner of a brick? Any help is appreciated.
I had this problem, I could only fix it by formatting the SD card in the stock rom. If everything is not working and you can't flash the ruu or get in your ROM, you can try factory reset in the bootloader and try a SD card wipe in the ROM after reset to fix the partition. I have only tested fixing the SD mounting issues with stock ROM SD card wiping
That's my idea. Hope I helped :thumbup:

I was running Wildstang's CM10.1. Had just updated to the 030513 update about 4 hours before the levy broke. It appeared to operate fine after reboot. Even used the phone to make an audio recording.
Also, for full information, I am on the most recent firmware (HBOOT 2.27 and most recent radios) and full S-Off.

Easier said than done for me, but I will try it out when I get home tonight. Thanks.
It concerns me, though, that the Image CRC in HBOOT comes up as all zeros for Boot, System and Data, and they are not mountable under any circumstances apparently. Any idea why that would happen?
I am pretty sure that I have a borked radio. I was running a "pre-flicker fix" Avatar ROM and upgraded to the 10-22 CM nightly. It worked great for about 4 hours and then lost the ability to send texts or make calls. I am trying to work my way through the steps to fix a messed up radio. I downgraded TWRP to 2.3.3 so I could apply the stock ROM, but the stock ROM hangs on the boot screen. I did apply the correct boot.img.
What am I missing?

Ok, so I am getting close to having a fully functional phone. I got it working, but it was all luck. (note: I tried each of these steps before, just not in this exact order)
a. I installed a TWRP backup of my Avatar ROM
b. flashed the appropriate boot.img
c. then flashed the Avatar ROM and gapps over the top of the backup.
It is functioning, but I am unable to access the internal storage. In ES Explorer, I can get to "/external_sd/"(which contains files) and "/mnt/sdcard"(which is empty) but if I try to click on the sd card icon it says "SD Card empty, unmounted or not present. I am unable to save screenshots and pictures because of this. This could stem from the SD swap I did.
Now that I have the radio working, I think I want to just start over with the device, without the sd storage, some of the apps are not working correctly. The factory reset I did blasted a lot of stuff. Also my download speeds are VERY slow... it says 4G but I don't believe it. Does anyone have a link to a good walk through on completely starting from scratch on a phone? What is the most stable CM ROM that does not have screen flicker?
thanks for the help guys
I had this exact same issue with 10/22. The radio died, and in the process of trying to fix it, the internal sd disappeared.
I ended up doing a full RUU following the steps at unlimited.io (ignoring the chmod step and the sudo parts of the commands since I'm in Windows). Then, HTCDev unlocking again, installing TWRP and Viper. Now, it seems to be working okay.
I'm having bad luck flashing the CM nightlies lately, not sure if it's just my phone, but I had the same issue even with the 10/18 experimental build.
I did end up getting it going. I built off of what I did in my previous post. I have to format the phone's data partition (mounded via TWRP) to get it to go.
