New page

Download the latest recovery image (or not) for your phone model. You can get them from the [http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager CWM site]. Note, for my nexus for, the Mako recovery image (6.0.2.0) worked, while the Manta recovery image (6.0.2.3) did not. To flash the recovery image,
$ fastboot flash recovery /path/to/yourrecoveryimage.img
It should only take a few seconds to do this. Once completed, you should see a message similar to
sending 'recovery' (XXXX KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... OKAY
If you see a message saying FAILED, it's probably because you haven't unlocked the bootloader.

You should now have an unlocked phone with a custom CMW recovery image that you can use to perform nandriod backups. This only gets us halfway to our goal, however, which is [[achieving root access]] to the device.
