Not exactly a development thread but thought it could be nice for people who need such thing.


You need to place the widget on the home screen and the device needs to be rooted.

Screenshot attached. Not very pretty but it should do the job.

Hope 1 or 2 people like it :D

-widget updated

-reboot to recovery
-reboot
-poweroff

Added automatic installation of reboot for some devices(some roms don't have the reboot command so I've added checking and auto installation)

Nice work @bender_007, have it on my wife's new AT&T D800 G2 which I received and rooted yesterday and also tried it on my Samsung GS4A, works great! A few observations, on the G2 Recovery goes to TWRP (AutoRec), but on my S4A it goes to stock recovery, probably due to the root implementation along with Safestrap. A final question, is it possible to add a "Download" mode? Thanks again for this app :highfive:

Yeah, actually I can add the download mode but then it would be a seperate app for sgs. Couldn't force the g2 to the download mode. I'll look into what safestrap is.

Hm..how do you reboot to recovery or BOOT to recovery? PM please :)

Thanks for the response, on my SGS4A, if you are referring to getting to stock recovery, we press VOL(+)/Home/Power simultaneously until the splash screen just appears and then let go.

I know that. Owned the s3. How do you enter the custom recovery if the stock recovery is still there? :)

Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Gotcha, well with the root on the SGS4, Safestrap has a boot screen upon reboot to either enter recovery or bypass and boot to system, though due to the root the app itself is broke.
