I have provided the stock recovery for Jelly Bean, Ice Cream Sandwich and Gingerbread for a simple reason, that some users might want to go stock without using the fastboot method of flashing factory images. I am still looking for more recoveries, if you can name them or provide a download link for the recovery image files for the same, It would be great.
Apart from this, I went through RZRecovery available here at Rootzwiki forum. But since the server has been suspended, I was not able to download. Does anyone of you have recovery image file for RZRecovery? If yes, then please bother to share ;)

NOTE: I do not take any credit for this, all I did was picked up the image files for the recoveries and made the flash able zips for them. Credits go to the author/ developers of the respective recoveries.

Downloads:

The zips are tested and confirmed to work with CWM, TWRP & TSM.

Woot, I thought you build 6.0.2.0 from source:(

Sorry to disappoint, I would love to compile 6.0.1.9 from source but I am afraid my time doesn't allow me.

Subscribed. Might be needing this in the future. Thanks for making the zips. :)

Here's CWM Touch 5.8.0.2 for crespo and crespo4g flashable zips.
Last version before CWM changed backup method to the crappy incremental one.

Why still post 5.8.0.2? What's the difference between this and the latest, 6.0.1.0?

don't be rude:)
the new back-up method from cwm recovery split the image in two parts first is the common for each back-up the second is the variable files which developers change in update, this method is maybe good if you flash rom"X.v1" then "X.v2" and so on, the common part is the same and only the modified part are backed-up, you got an huge first nandroid (in my case more than 1Gb) and then smaller one
previous method backed up everything, about same size for each back-up, this is convenient if you switch between roms
but, AFAIK, and having issue with 6.0 recovery I switched back to 5 non touch, the new one never run good on my NS and I find really odd the new method

Oh OK. Thanks for explaining. I guess I just might go back to bm's Carebear version then. I don't really like the light gray background too much. I still like the dark background and the cute bear. :)

The biggest problem to me with the new v6 CWM is definitely the incremental backup. It's good for the casual person that makes a nandroid every rom update for some reason, but it sucks major for anyone trying different roms with different base. The blobs folder will become huge, actually bigger than what the full nandroid of the rom would be, and you have to keep it on your phone at all cost because modifying it or deleting it will explode your backup.

It becomes a hassle to manage several different configurations and it just doesn't seem worth it to me.

Is it possible Brainmaster 5.0.8.2 is simply a mislabelled 5.8.0.2? Can anyone check that? From the time it was posted by BM it seems to line up a little time after the release of official 5.8.0.2...

Today, I extracted Stock ICS IMM76D recovery and also discovered TSM CWM and TSM TWRP recovery images. Apart from this, I did made a zip for 5.8.0.2 too.
So, 4 new flash able recovery zips coming tomorrow.

Credits to slukk for TSM recovery, polobunny for sharing the 5.8.0.2 CWM edition & stremax for the explanation :cool:

Yes I have it installed and it does say 5.8.0.2 in recovery. All those numbers are quite confusing, I guess. :)

    To flash android 4.4 we need a cwm 6.0.4.3 based recovery, unfortunately Philz has not yet released his recovery so...

    new cwm flashable zips:

    6.0.4.3 Touch

    6.0.4.3 non Touch

    Could you explain what you mean by re-assigning the driver?

    Probably not the correct terminology to use, I apologize.

    Please ensure your device is connected to your machine and CWM is loaded.


    On a Windows Machine do the following:

    Navigate to Device Manager (Win + Pause|Break Key > Select 'Device Manager')

    Locate device within the list that has an exclamation mark beside it (remove USB cable and reinsert to see if actions correspond with item visibility)

    Ensuring that your USB cable is connected, right click on the device you located in Device Manager...

    select 'Update Driver Software' > Browse my computer for driver software > Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer > Highlight 'USB Composite Device' (ensure 'Show compatatible hardware' was ticked before proceeding) > Finally Select Next.

    The driver will now install. Once it has simply remove the USB Cable from your device and reinsert. This will initiate the re-assigned driver. You can proceed with mounting your Storage via CWM.


    You should now see your device, Nexus S, is listed within Device Manager. You can proceed with installing the ADB driver's if you wish, or simply skip this step as it is not essential for USB Mass Storage operation.
