In ROM Manager it doesnt give me an option to flash aternate recovery, its not highlighted. What do I do now? How do I flash the new RA you gave me without using ROM Manager or whatever?
 
By the way, I ended up reflashing the pc3img again because it was stuck. So right now I am running a new install of sprint lovers with no backup!
 
Ok, what is your current recovery version, then? What does it say for the version of RA it would flash under "flash alternate recovery"? If it's not 2.1.1, and you don't already have 2.1.1 (I assume you wouldn't be asking if you did), try uninstalling, then reinstalling CW OR select the option to flash CW again, which should allow you to flash alternate recovery. Of course, don't do any of that if the version isn't listed as 2.1.1 for RA. Uninstall, then reininstall ROM manager if that's the case.

Mods, please merge this with this thread:

You mean you have the img file on your sdcard? That has no effect on ROM manager's ability to flash it. Or are you saying you actually flashed the file from your sd card? Assuming you do not yet have 2.1.1, did you try what I suggested?
 
Well I uninstalled ROM Manager in reinstalled it. Selected flash clockworkmod recovery, selected HTV Evo (CDMA) and it says
"An error occured while flashing your recovery"
 
well even though it wouldnt flash colockworkmad, I just scrolled down and see where I can flash RA Recovery v2.1.1
I am flashing RA now.
