[Hero CDMA Android Development] cooolone2:
Ok... I'm running this ROM and I attempted to update the recovery to the new 1.6.2 and am experiencing difficulty.

I have shell & root access still but for some ungodly reason, I could not, no matter how I tried, could I push or flash the update image. Subsequently, in my maddening attempts, I lost my recovery console too, so now I'm in a bit of a hiccup!

It's very similar to the reports in other threads but with different rom's/handsets, with the exception that I have root.

I would appreciate any ideas or help in the form of:

How to restore the recovery image... I tried even to push the recovery.img from the nandroid backup to no avail. Freshkitchen, FlashRec, nothing writes. I even went in through command prompt and changed permissions in the directory to no avail... Here's some of what I tried.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts and help!

:)

So... I tried a few things I saw here on various threads, tried all the recovery images, etc., etc. I'm lost... lol

I'd like to get back to recovery if at all possible, even a master reset and try over again (last resort). Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
