You need the android SDK..
then you goto the tools folder within the download and use adb shell.

Android SDK is - if explained by simple means - a tool on the computer that gives it's user the ability to "customise" , "code" , "1337ise" his Android ( 1337 in videogaming usually refers to elite players ) and it is used in the making of All ROMs ( Operating system would give a close meaning ) that you see on the internet like the Cyanogen one , etc... If you are looking for Android SDK you will find it on

Does anyone have a new flash image?
The official CWM has problems in mounting SD-EXT, thus, Jaggyrom and other custom roms (except stock) won't work properly and your phone will reboot everytime you install apps. You'll also get a lot of app crashes because Dalvik cache can't move properly. Now here's how to flash back to Yannou90's recovery using only Android Terminal Emulator.
__________
THINGS YOU NEED:
1. Your HTC Explorer must be rooted
2. Flash_image and Recovery (You can download it here on this thread)
3. Root File Explorers (Like Root Explorer and ES File Manager, at play store)
STEPS:
1. Download the zip file, read the readme inside the zip, and extract flash_image and recovery.img to the root of your SD Card
2. Download Root Explorer from play store, you can use ES file explorer if you want a root file explorer for free
3. Using your root explorer, copy flash_image to /system/bin/ but before you do that, make sure you mount /system/bin/ as R/W.
4. After copying flash_image, set flash_image permissions to rwxrwxrwx
5.Download Android Terminal Emulator on Play store
6. Run Terminal Emulator and open up preferences.
7. at the initial command, put this:
export PATH=/system/bin:$path
7. Go back to Terminal and Type su
8. Superuser should prompt. Accept it.
9. If you saw # it means you are running it as root, which is that we really needed. If you saw $ , it's not running as root and do type su again.
10. now type this:
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
11. Wait for it and if it's done, boot your phone to recovery.
12. CONGRATULATIONS AND YOU ARE BACK TO YANNOU90's RECOVERY

Superuser worked fine on terminal. But also got permission denied on last command in terminal.. should I push it via ADB?
You can simply flash the recovery using fastboot. Download this ZIP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=913094&d=1329843100 (courtesy of jaggyjags), start your phone in fastboot mode (ROM Manager might be able to reboot your phone into this mode, otherwise just turn it off, pull out the battery and replace it, then turn on while holding volume down and choose "FASTBOOT" from the menu that appears), then run "recovery.bat" from inside the ZIP. It's simpler than having to mess with adding files to /system/bin.
FYI, you need to set permissions on flash_image to allow it to be executed. I think typing this in the terminal emulator should work:
Code:
chmod 777 /system/bin/flash_image
(otherwise use your file manager to change the permissions to give read, write and execute permissions to all users i.e. tick all the boxes). This is the missing step from your guide to make it work from terminal emulator.
Also, you don't need multiple apps, you can just use terminal emulator for it all by using the "cp" command e.g. if flash_image is on the root of your SD card, use the following commands:
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin/flash_image
then use the chmod command above and then the original command from the first post.
[BTW, if you're wondering, the first command identifies as root, the second remounts /system as RW, the last copies the file]
So the full process for terminal emulator ONLY, would be this:
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin/flash_image
chmod 777 /system/bin/flash_image
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
{rm /sdcard/flash_image
rm /sdcard/recovery.img}
The commands in the {} are optional and just delete the two files from your SD card. The 2nd and 3rd commands can be excluded if you copy flash_image with a root capable file manager, as can the 4th if you change permissions with the file manager.
(This post ended up being much longer than I originally intended. I was just going to post the first paragraph, but figured I may as well post how to make it work the way the OP described as well - or at least what I think should make it work, I haven't actually tested the full process [I have tested the exact same process with other binaries {viewmem, tcpdump} and it works perfectly. Provided the usage of flash_image as in the OP is correct and works, this method will work])
EDIT: You also shouldn't have to change the initial command, /system/bin is already specified in $PATH. If it wasn't, pretty much nothing on the phone will work.

Thank You. U completed this thread. Decided to use fastboot (faster) instead of terminal emulator way.

My initial response to such a situation would be start the phone in fastboot mode and then flash the recovery from there. Download the ZIP here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=913094&d=1329843100, extract it and double click "recovery.bat" once the phone is in fastboot mode (start phone holding volume down, select fastboot from menu instead of recovery).
This assumes you're on Windows. If you're on Mac/Linux, find the fastboot binary for your platform and run the following command in a terminal:
Code:
./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
where recovery.img is taken from the ZIP I linked above.
Alternatively, you could install a more up-to-date recovery such as TWRP or a newer build of CWM (not sure of links for the latest versions of either, but have a look around the forum and you should find them. Also some older builds of CWM had bugs [hence this thread exists], but I think the newer builds work fine on the Explorer; not 100% sure as I still use yannou90's build)

Whoa! You don't delete a recovery Just install TWRP and it will overwrite CWM.
Follow the instructions in the TWRP thread using goomanager or download the CORRECT version for your device form the teamwin web site and use the following from a PC
rename the downloaded file to twrp.blob and reboot to the bootloader / fastboot screen
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob
fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot
or from a terminal emulator on the device:
Save it to the root of your /sdcard directly (internal memory only) and rename it to twrp.blob
Launch terminal emulator or connect to your computer and open an adb shell, then type the following:
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.blob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
Then reboot to complete installation.

You can just flash the update file from TWRP. You will loose your custom recovery and root if you flash the stock rom. So you would have to re-install TWRP and root again.
If you come from any kind of custom rom it's highly recommended to do a clean install of the stock rom. Wipe everything, don't restore apps from a backup (their data should be ok to restore), install all your apps from the Play Store.

may be its 'flash_image flash recovery recovery.img' or you can install via recovery installer app. It's much easier.
