Root Trying to root and custom flash

[Drackie]

I managed to S-OFF my phone but I got stuck with the recovery. I'm not bothered what product I use, just want to sort it out before I reflash.

I'm completely new to this world and spent half the night reading up before I started.

Been following this guide:

Here's the bit I got stuck at:

ADDING CUSTOM RECOVERY

6) it's time to install your recovery file.

a) Boot into fastboot mode (from off, volume-up and power or volume-down and power then cycle to fastboot option)
b) Connect phone to PC through USB. You should see "FASTBOOT USB" on your phones screen.
c) Open CMD (Start > Run > type "cmd" and press enter)
d) Type "fastboot flash recovery c:\your recovery file name" where c:\your recovery file name is the exact location and name of the recovery file you downloaded.

When I run it, I get the following error:

C:\>"fastboot flash recovery c:\recovery_CWM_2.5.0.7"
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect

I've tried various combinations of .img .IMG on the end but no luck and as I say I'm not really sure what I'm doing.

Anyone got any thoughts?

Cheers,
Drackie

Hi

When you enter the line

C:\>"fastboot flash recovery c:\recovery_CWM_2.5.0.7"

leave out the quotation marks!

and also, make sure you type it exactly. It is also case sensitive.

I copied and pasted so I know the caps are right. I'll give it another shot.

Copied from where?

I know what you're thinking, I copied the name from the file itself.
