@Phil3759, we have some early results. Our n-size is low, so I would recommend using this only on a directional basis.

At the moment, it looks like your recovery tool is 10x f'n greater than just f'n great. Again, these are preliminary, but they look quite good.

Others using this tool, please take the survey, as I wish to provide this awesome dev that for which he impatiently awaits, so we need a higher sample size.

Remember, we wish to magnitude of f'ng in relation to awesomeness.

[As previously noted, please refrain from negative comments about tools that others have worked hard to provide this community.]

I appreciate your words
However, I think starting comparison between recoveries in a dev thread is not a good idea and not allowed. It should go in General section.
Each recovery has its up and downs. Some are better for specific devices, others for specific roms/needs, some are faster for specific hardware, others slower... A comparison should include those elements not some subjective statements that depend on user tastes.

Also, I prefer that people report bugs, provide logs on issues, missing features...
You can also report about a working feature you tested if you think it is important and interesting (nandroid under specific roms...)

Take a look at this example:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49102572&postcount=2910

That's something useful for users and the dev

I ask ALL to stop comparing and report their tastes

Keep it a dev thread

No problem. It was all in good fun. I'll edit my previous posts accordingly.

Thanks for the input!
@Phil3759, I think I got the one that had some negative info. Let me know and I'll update accordingly.

That is the device's code name (device's board name). Every device has one, the Note 3 is the general name for our device. But as there are multiple variants of the note 3 (Verizon, at&t, developer editions, etc...) and most other devices, this "code name" is a more precise means of identifying which actual device it is.

Pardon my simplistic question but I will ask it anyway:

Is there any FUNCTIONAL difference between using this recovery and TWRP? I'm usually of the mindset that if it ain't broke don't try to fix it. Just want to know if there are any features that this has that may entice a content TWRP user.

Also, is it safe to say that backups made using TWRP cannot be used by Phil's and vice versa

I have a question:
If you use the jfltexx version, all is fine (except flashing some files giving device assert error obviously)?
Also, do you need an updated recovery to Kitkat new bootloader or you do not have a stock kitkat samsung rom yet?

Hey Phil,

Just wanted to say thanks for your hard work on this!

It really shows!

Started on a recovery that ended up making all NANDroid backups have a date at the beginning of the unix epoch - so glad that your recovery supports talking to the Qualcomm chipset for time sync!

It does??

I've been trying to convince a twrp guy to add at least some kind of hack similar to openrecoveryscript, or a slight enhancement to open recovery script, so I can insert my own script that twrp will run. Open recovery script is no good for this because it's a single static file name that too many other things overwrite. On top of that the date command does not actually work on twrp 2.6.3.7 for setting the system time. Forget writing rtc that is blocked in kernel code for apoarently good reason, I mean it can't even set the regular transient system time. If the date command worked, and if I could get a script of my own executed, I had several simple ideas for setting the system time to at least the shutdown time. That would be good enough for backup and log filenames. But this would be great!

    I came from twrp. The first twrp was garbage, the 2.3.6.7 fixed alot but still not that great imho. this I give a 10. And also on a side note i flash phones on the side for money, and probably do about 10 - 15 phones a week and everyone wants the same thing kit kat, and if you are flashing cm or kit kat roms philz recovery is a must bottom line. this really is an incredible recovery guys I cant say enough really.

    I haven't seen any references to Knox. Does this trip the Knox counter like TWRP does? I am stock rooted but have been waiting for a Knox-proof recovery before installing one.

    Any recovery for our devices trips Knox. I couldn't imagine this being any different.
