ROM Manager and Clockwork Recovery Image v1.6 3/8/2010

Koush · Feb 26, 2010

Hi everyone, I've written a brand spanking new recovery with a Android application front end!

To install my ROM Manager and recovery, simply download ROM Manager from the Market!

ROM Manager:

ClockworkMod Recovery:

ClockworkMod Recovery is based off the eclair recovery image. Features include Nandroid backup, adb shell, advanced update.zip options (ignore asserts and signature checks), and file browser for choosing update.zips (you can now organize your stuff by directory).

1.6.0
Bug fixes.
File list now scrolls in recovery.
Added hooks for ROM Manager.

1.4.2
Initial public release.

For a manual installation of the recovery, you can download it from my website:

Kids, don't be a fool, stay in school.

TRANSLATION -

"Ok, I'm flashing it now... Flashed it... Booting into recovery... Pressed ALT+L to show the menu (I really think you should mention that the user needs to do this in your OP).

Also it would be nice if I had to press a button to confirm an operation before it actually executes, like how on most recovery images you have to press HOME to confirm a wipe, etc.
Other than that, I'm impressed and I was able to go into console. That's major for some people."

Is it really too difficult to completely spell words?
Your typing comes across as being that of an illiterate, honestly I found it a little difficult to understand, did you mean dialogue?

Ace42 · Feb 26, 2010

I thought this was based off of Cyan 1.4, will it get updated or is this like a final version?

I'm typing from a phone, and didn't realize I misspelled a single word, I'm so sorry that my typing was at least readable, an not spelld lik dis er dattt, nn just addnn xtruh lettrzz 2 ma wurdz.

Edit: sorry for flooding your post, Koush. Great work!

Firerat · Feb 26, 2010

on a serious note,
I have been thinking of making a minor tweak to ra-1.5.2 recovery
I noticed that . files don't get wiped from ext{2,3,4} but do get backed up
so my tweak would be to exclude files with the leading .

this way you could sym link /system/etc/hosts to /system/sd/.hosts and not clobber it when doing a nand restore.

no big deal but handy

PS , I was using /system/sd/.ubuntu as a chroot dir , but backups were taking longer and I was just tar -deteting .ubuntu from them after to 1/ save space 2/ not clobber

Keep the arguing to a minimum and keep the thread on topic.

Cal-El · Feb 26, 2010

Thanks ivan, remember our dashes and wings? Good times. Anyway, would it be better to have this recovery if you are running a 2.1 eclair ROM? What would be the pros over say AR 1.5.2? And would it work for a MT3G or just the G1? Just wondering. Thanks all you devs for making our phones awesome.

used to hate it myself, but these days I don't mind it all that much, its kinda like an accent in type.

btw I didn't want to be taken to seriously or offend, just my twisted sense of humour

It's all gravy, it's just hard to make a note of sarcasm on the internet, where there is a lacking of proper punctuation at times, or a lack of "lol"'s and smiley faces.

Anyways it's all cool, brother.

Koush, however, I would like to make a suggestion. Something that has always bothered me about recovery images, is that the file list when you flash an update isn't in alphabetical order, nor is the file browser (which I absolutely love by the way, this is something I've been dieing to see in a recovery image). Anyways it's hard to browse around when everything is out of order. In my case, I've got 20-30 folders on my SD card, and with them placed in no specific order, it's just a pain maneuvering throughout it.

@ Koush
It's good to see your still working hard on android.
As always, top notch!
You should post more of your work on here...

To bad I downloaded it yesterday. LOL...

Can I flash unsigned roms now?

jaaronmoody · Feb 27, 2010

Thanks!! The root dude is back!

TeeJay3800 · Feb 27, 2010

Is this now the latest and greatest recovery? Will it unseat Amon_RA's as the most popular? How does it compare feature-wise? (hmm lots of questions there, sorry)

I hope so that would be pretty cool. It would make it a lot easier to edit roms and just flash them instead of having to sign them. I still dont understand why the only drag and drop signing program that someone made is for Mac.

I wouldnt go that far considering RA's still has ALOT more options than this recovery does at the moment.
