[RECOVERY] ClockworkMod TOUCH 5.5.0.4 v4.3 - (7/9/12)

---

This is gweedo767's touch recovery ported to the skyrocket/hercules. Because many people have been asking me what the difference between this one and the version that koush put out here is the difference:

1. This one is open source.
2. This one has swipe gestures (up,down,left,right)
3. This one has different UI settings
4. This one has soft keys on the bottom of the screen
5. This one has 2 different options of font

Here is a youtube video I made of how it works: ------> VIDEO

4 ways to use recovery:

1. volume rockers
2. soft keys on bottom of screen
3. capacitive buttons
4. swipe gestures (up/down = scroll && left = back && right = select)

HOW TO INSTALL:

CWMR5504_INSTALL-4.3.zip (NEW ICS BACKGROUND): ---------> BLUE-FONT
CWMR5504_INSTALL-4.3.zip (NEW ICS BACKGROUND): ---------> ROBOTO-FONT
- Just flash in CWM

TERMINAL INSTALL:

recovery.img: (NEW ICS BACKGROUND) ----------------> BLUE-FONT
recovery.img: (NEW ICS BACKGROUND) ----------------> ROBOTO-FONT
- download to sdcard
- open terminal emulator (or adb) type:

$ su 
# dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22 bs=4096

Odin Install

recovery.tar.md5 (NEW ICS BACKGROUND): ---------> BLUE-FONT
recovery.tar.md5 (NEW ICS BACKGROUND): ---------> ROBOTO-FONT

Test Drive:

CWMRT5504_TEST-4.3.zip(NEW ICS BACKGROUND): -------------------> BLUE-FONT
CWMRT5504_TEST-4.3.zip(NEW ICS BACKGROUND): -------------------> ROBOTO-FONT
(This will not alter ANY files on your phone. It is just a test drive basically. You flash it through ClockworkMod that you have already installed and it runs over it showing you how it would be if you did install it. Once you reboot you will still have the same recovery that you had.)

v1:

- Initial release

v2:

- fixed "back button disabled/enabled" when scrolling past top to bottom
- 2 different font versions (roboto and normal)
    -- roboto font is a little bigger
- complete fix of adb and usb mounting

v2.5:

- added a cool new ICS background! (thanks CyanmodICS for the idea)
- added green/red font versions
- cleaned up the code a bit

v3:

- in process of fixing hanging backup issue (need extensive list of apps people have installed when having issue)
- fixed ALOT of bugs
- added many more options for internal/external sdcard
- more....(i cant remember)
- i will add the other color options back in a few days

v3.5

- fixed recovery.fstab to mount internal sdcard as /sdcard to recognize .hidenandroidprogress file
- ascii art???

v4.0

- fixed the fix_permissions not working (thanks minotauri)
- fixed sd-ext and .android_secure errors in backup

v4.1

- re-arranged order of "install from internal/external sdcard" to put internal first
- added "Reboot Recovery" option to the bottom of the advanced menu
- a few code cleanups

v4.2

- fixed bug where background would reset to blank black after installing a zip/backing up/restoring
- added option to reboot into download mode in advanced>>reboot download mode

v4.3

- hopefully fixed the hanging backup bug once and for all
- merged all of CWM's latest code changes

what is the difference between this one and the one that was posted a few weeks ago? I see this is 5.5.0.4 and the other is 5.8.1.3 so does that mean that this is older or is the other older? I am just a little confused sorry for the noob questions.

np. are you talking about the one from koush? from rom manager? so that one is all 'tap' to select. and it seems all cluttered and hard to use for me. this one has swipe gestures and soft keys on the bottom and this one is actually open source (heaven forbid koush make his open source....) which means that if there are aspects that people want changed we can go in and change them freely, which has been done already. yes, this one is a lower version but there are no real changes in the 2 builds. try this one out and see for yourself the difference and let me know if you do or do not like it (hopefully you do ) and if you dont you can easily go back to the one you had before.

have backups/restores been tested to work pretty solidly? I only read that the interface navigation had been tested.

Just a little confused...did you use the original CWM Touch from Koush's or is this (yours?) a brand new development? Nonetheless I'll try it out and see which is better for me

Thanks for posting (and developing?)

so i used the source gweedo767 made but he made it for the galaxy nexus so i ported it to work with the skyrocket/hercules. it was alot of work.

anyone who does not want to install please try out the fakeflash zip file in the OP. there is absolutely no chance of anything happening to your phone by flashing this as it is just a test flash. it will let you experience how the real install is but will not change ANY files on your phone.

This recovery does indeed charge the phone's battery. Updates to the % are driven by updates to the screen it seems - scroll a bit to refresh the battery charge reading.

Nice... looks nice...

Works well, great job. Again the battery percentage is a great touch!
