# flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-GNM-thunderc-vzw-1.1.0.img
Yea I put in the mount command and it said that I used the mount command wrong, then I tried the command you're talking about and it gives me a read-only error.
I am following the instructions word for word, and it's not working. I even copy-pasted the exact code, and it won't work right. Yes, I went into shell and issued su, showing the "#" then entering the commands. I'll try again real quick, maybe it just didn't like me at that time.
Edit: Ok it's working now. Not sure why it wasn't earlier. However, now when I issue the command #6 to flash the recovery, it says my image file doesn't exist, even though it's on the root of sdcard with flash_image. It was successful finding flash_image, but can't find amon ra's? I believe this is the same problem steele was having.

html: not found
flash_image: cannot open html: no such file
I'm new to the scene here. What does this posted guide do to your phone?
I don't recommend using clockworkmod. It still isn't compatible with it. I tried fooling around with it and it bricked my phone. Anyway, not sure about this but I don't think this phone has a recovery.sh file on the phone. I would think this would be consistent with all vortex, seeing as there's only the one model. I could be wrong, if so please correct me.
