How do I restore SPRecovery?

[JeffDenver]

I am trying to unroot a Droid 1.

I have clockwork recovery installed currently.

I need to restore SPRecovery in order to apply the stock image.

I know that ROM Manager is supposed to do it...but it gives me an error when I try.

Anyone know how I can get SPRecovery back?

Easiest way to get SPR back is just just flash it through ROM Manager or flash it through CWM. You can find a zip here: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/ra...-based-update-zips-battery-charging-more.html

Though if you're trying to go back to complete stock (recovery & all) I would SBF.

What is an SBF file and how do you apply it? Is it the same as doing an update.zip?

It is a stock image of the phone in a factory state you force from the pc. You can find the SBF's here http://www.peteralfonso.com/p/downloads.html?m=1
Follow this guide but use the most up-to-date SBF from Pete's site:

How do you apply SBFs?

That page has a link to "RSD-Lite" but it goes to a blank page.

Ok...your link was kinda helpful.

An easier way was to simply put the SPRecovery IMG file in my SDCard directory, and then user a terminal emulator app to apply (type within the terminal emulator app) the following:

su

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-0.99.3b.img

The "recovery-0.99.3b.img" file was what it was named. It did apply it correctly, and I rebooted and can see SPRecovery now. It got rid of Clockwork.
