Now, is there a way to uninstall CWM?
CWM Port success
- Thread starter rprr
- Start date
To remove CWM you would follow all of the OP instructions with the following exception!!
dd if=/sdcard/recovery-cwm-vtab1008.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=512
This line would read:
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=512
Hopefully we all did a backup of our stock recovery prior to overwriting it with the CWM recovery, I know I didnt!!
If you dont have the stock recovery backed up on your SDCard, like I dont! I can probably provide one from the update.zip file of the 1.5 update that someone kindly uploaded.

I do not have stock recovery backup.
Will appreciate very much the upload.
Actually I found the original recovery here:

I have been following these threads for some time now. I was able to root my VTAB1008 and freeze updates so I am still on build 56 I have set up adb and willing to make a nandroid backup. My question is when I download this zip to I download to computer or vtab and run adb that way. Please let me know as I am willing to give it a shot

You will need to download the zip file to your PC, unzip it, and then put it into your adb directory. Then follow the OP instructions.

I finally got it to work but I did it differently than OP I will share my expereince. First I downladed to my directly to my tablet, then I used root explorer Mount R/W and extracted it from there it put that into a extracted folder which i then moved to root of sd card and then ran the code in adb. I then ran backup in Rom Manger and worked like a charm. This might have been a little more work but I finally got it
