How to install a custom recovery image in stock 2.1 Update 6 HERO ?

[srinatar]

Hi
I have a Sprint HTC Hero 2.1 Update 6. Today, I installed universal one-click root app onto my phone from this link :
[APP] [ROOT] 1-click root for N1 (Latest ver: 1.6.2 beta 5) - xda-developers

and I believe I got my phone rooted.

Now, I am hoping to get custom recovery image installed on my phone so that I can nandroid back up my current stock 2.1 based image before installing CM6.

I was hoping to try clockworkmod through ROM Manager app. Does this image work in HTC Hero ? If not, is there any other recovery image that I should try for my 2.1 hero ?

thanks for your advice

Future reference, there is a Sprint Hero Root section

Yes, CM works with rom manager. You can also flash RA through rom manager
