Introduction

IHO Recovery is based on Koush’s ClockworkMod Recovery. You can download the latest version, 4.0.1.4.3, here:

Note: IHO Recovery, while essentially a stock CWM recovery, is still highly untested and is not intended for use on anything other than an Optimus V (VM670).

How to Install

1. Place the IHO recovery .img file in your SD card’s root folder.
2. Run a terminal emulator. If you don’t have one, download Terminal Emulator from the Market.
3. Enter the following commands:

  • su
  • cd sdcard
  • flash_image recovery iho-vm670-recovery-4.0.1.4.3.img

Chrome to Phone can simplify entering terminal commands if you’d rather not type them out. Highlight a command with your mouse, click your browser’s Chrome to Phone button to send it to your phone, press and hold in the terminal emulator to bring up its Edit menu, and choose Paste.

4. If you’d like to reboot your phone into IHO Recovery, enter “reboot recovery”.

You can also access IHO Recovery by holding Power, Volume Down, and Home with your phone turned off.

Unrooted Phones
Addtional steps are required for unrooted phones. See Installing flash_image for more information.

Alternatives

The following recoveries have also been tested and should work fine with an IHO-based ROM:
