Thank you for clearing that up, I just wanted to be sure before I changed my CWM.

No problem. I may not be able to dev like these guys but I try to help when I can. Before Android I thought a brick was cheap and hard to make..lol

@braway...it's so much easier to use one hand in cwm now. Thanks again.

Clockwork Based Recovery - with a touch of magic

Good luck, and happy flashing.
Please report bugs with as much detail as possible, and preferably in a separate paragraph ;)

Wow! So much easier to navigate through menus now than pressing the volume up/down buttons. Great job!!! Thank you so much!:D

You do know that with cwm b4, you could actually use left most button and home to scroll down and up and search button to enter..... right?

No, I didn't know that, but this touch interface makes it so much easier, being able to scroll up/down even faster though. :)

Works great. Way better, especially when you have a case on the note that makes it harder to push the buttons.

looks like your zip file is bad...try to redownload it

Thanks again braway. Great job. You gave me something that I didn't even know I needed, the touch really helps keep me from wearing out my volume buttons. Any chance of sd card mounting coming in the near future?

Congrats on getting your note. Bet it makes it alot easier to dev. :)

    I'm not responsible for any damages to your phone. Neither am I responsible, if the phone becomes alive, runs away, dominates or kills you ;P
    Also, if you don't know how to flash this, then you probably shouldn't... just saying...

    NOTE: I'm not maintaining this anymore, please use the official cwr (if there is one), or twrp


    Latest release: 2012-04-14

    Changelog

    2012-04-14 (Odin) (CWM)

    - colors are now customizable

    2012-04-09 (Odin) (CWM)
    - bugfix: "dragging" now limited to the visible row area

    2012-04-08 (Odin) (CWM)
    - rewrote ui a bit, to be more touch friendly
    - no more swiping to navigate
    - short click on an entry selects it
    - double short click on the same entry executes it

    - use back key to go back
    - disabled "back mode"

    2012-04-05 (CWM)
    - based on my cwm 2012-03-05

    Known Bugs
    - see my cwm thread for known bugs

    How to install/update
    - read here

    Thanks to
    everyone i mentioned in my cwm thread
    and possibly lots of other people who did important android work, but are sadly forgotten :(

    Good luck, and happy flashing.

    Features

    Touch
    - click on an entry to select it
    - double click on an entry do "execute" it
    - the back key works as back
    - dragging the menu will move it, if possible
    - keys still work


    Custom Colors
    create a file named ".config" in the clockworkmod-folder on your internal sdcard (in android that would be /sdcard/clockworkmod/.config)
    the syntax per line is:
    Code:
    TYPE=R,G,B,A

    Valid types are:
    Code:
    MENU_TEXT_COLOR
    NORMAL_TEXT_COLOR
    HEADER_TEXT_COLOR

    Example:
    Code:
    MENU_TEXT_COLOR=255,0,0,200
    NORMAL_TEXT_COLOR=0,255,0,200
    HEADER_TEXT_COLOR=0,0,255,200
    That would display your header in blue, your menu in red and the log in green.

    If you don't know how to use it, then you probably shouldn't, just saying :p

    Uploaded beta 1

    see post 1 for details

    big differences:
    - no more swiping
    - direct selection of items in the list
    - double click an item for execution
    - long(er) click does not select/execute
    - "dragging" of an entry will move the list (in file selection for example)
    - back key is the only way to go back now

    - keys still work (vol up/down, home/menu, search/power)

    Is there a flashable zip for the latest touch recovery?

    No, not yet. I was hoping someone was going to post one. I've trying to do it through terminal emulator but still no luck. I would try adb but my computer is out of commission

    Sent From My Hybrid AOKP Note


    There is no flashable .zip file for the latest version of cwm touch recovery, but you can make your own.

    1- Take the .zip from the 1st page of this thread.

    2- Then go to the ROM Manager website, scroll down to Samsung Galaxy Note, and download the cwm 5.8.4.3 touch recovery .img.
    http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager/

    3- Take the cwm 5.8.4.3 touch recovery .img and rename it to "recovery".

    4- Drag it into the .zip from the first page of this thread and replace the original recovery image in the .zip with the cwm 5.8.4.3 touch recovery that you renamed "recovery".

    5- Then flash the .zip with the new renamed recovery .img in cwm or twrp and you're done.

    Another thing you could do, is what I did.

    • Download cwm touch recovery from: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager/
      (first column is normal cwm, second is touch)
    • Copy the recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.3-quincyatt.img file to your sdcard.
    • adb shell as root.
    • Code:
      dd if=/sdcard/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.3-quincyatt.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
      (this is the same from recovery or from android)
    • Reboot to recovery
    • Enjoy!
