Root CWM touch recovery questions

I'm having issues as well, I've tried 3 times, I'm using terminal emulator, commands as followed, ( su, dd if=/sdcard/TouchRecovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recover, reboot recovery ) it came up with the file in and out but when reboots the recovery is the same not sure what I'm doing wrong the img is on root of sd, I've copied the name of the img file checked several times this isn't my first time flashing.

I got it guys lol can't have capital letters. Very simple, and using terminal emulator from the market would probably be easiest, jenny wish you luck
 
Jenny, download tolth's touch recovery img using your phone and be sure it's on the root of your sdcard. Also your device must be rooted so you can download a 'terminal emulator' from Google Play. So if you meet the criteria of having your device rooted then.

1. Download CWM Touch recovery.img to your sdcard
2. Download a Terminal Emulator from Google Play
3. Open Terminal Emulator and type su for root privilages.
4. in terminal emulator after su "dd if=/sdcard/6031-touch-recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery" Be sure to use the dd command without the quotes and be sure the '6031-touch-recovery.img ' is the exact same name as the one placed in your sdcard root.

That should be pretty much all you need to do. The touch-recovery img I used in the example was the name of tolth's touch recovery.

So how that dd command it wasn't working in my end and when I try this one dd if=/sdcard/6031-touch-recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 bs=4094 and it work good no problem now
