Hi,

I installed CWM and and made a backup of the stock-rom. Then I wanted to copy the backup-file to my pc, but i cant find the clockworkmod/backup folder. There is only a clockworkmod folder and that one is empty. Its the same on the pc and in android. The weird thing is, that i can see the folder and the backup-file in CWM. So I can restore in cwm, but I want to make a backup of the backup to my pc.

Who can help?

the backup should be in /sdcard/external_sd/clockworkmod/backup/

Salu2,
Siwy ;-)

I see the clockworkmod folder in sdcard/external_sd only in CWM, but not in android or on the PC.

I've got the same error when flashed superuser over new 2.3.5 today. Surprisingly all still worked perfectly - su is installed and superuser app works.
Maybe because I didn't hard reset and I already had my previous firmware rooted.

same here... I've got this error, but when I rebooted, superuser had installed, and works perfect

Can i unroot the device by Uninstalling Superuser????

ishafiq · Jan 8, 2012

You can flash back the stock kernel..and ur back to mint state..unrooted
If you wanna go for warranty don't forget to reset the binary counter using USB jig.

Thanks. This worked perfectly. For some reason Heimdall (v 1.1) didn't detect the phone on Ubuntu 10.10. Can anyone shed some light on the matter?

Hi, congratulations on your post, I have little doubt, I flashed the CWM and now that's the recovery that I have on the phone, but if you need to restore the previous recovery in the subject of the warranty of the phone, as you might do, because would first have to restore the backup of my original rom without root, and that I should do with the CWM, but to make it like the factory would have to restore the original recovery and remove the CWM after having restored the original rom.

You can restore only the original recovery of a stock rom without having to flash the stock rom odin completely through? can be replaced by a recovery of CWM extracted from a stock rom.tar and added this recovery to CWM.tar you posted? or needs to be re-signed in some way to work through ODIN.?

Greetings.

Hi,

I'm rooted my phone with this guide but when I try to overclock it to 1.2GHz with

cpu master free it is still locked to 1.0 Ghz. What I need to do to see more

overclocking options regarding to 1 GHz and above?

I have stock 2.3.4 GB I don't want to update this untill ICS is out.

U need to flash 2.3.6 rom and also flash one of the 2 available overclock kernals to be able to overclock ur SGR.

Cheers !

Installing CWM with Odin does not increase the counter.
Making a backup with CWM does not increase the counter.
Installing superuser with CWM does not increase the counter.
Installing the "ardatdat custom kernel with root+overclock" with CWM does not increase the counter.
Installing a stock rom does not increase the counter.

So it's just when installing an custom rom the counter increases?

Custom roms, custom kernels... but ONLY if you install them via Odin...dvs. files with .tar / .tar.md5 extensions

Flashing files (.zip) via clockworkmod (recovery) never increases the counter!

Always good to know! However, I did install CWM with Odin, did that count or...?

m.kochan10 · Feb 2, 2012

Nope it didn't

mrsaccess · Feb 4, 2012

Is there a CWM Touch version compatible with our device?

Clauds · Feb 9, 2012

Hello,
As far as I understand: if I want to make a full backup of my software I must install CWM - on my phone (like in the firs post of this thread).
If I install this CWM on my phone - this doesn't void my warranty ?

Sorry for noob question ... i'm at the beginning.

Try download from the mirror link. It worked for me after the file from first link ending up same error as yours.

muqtarbaig · Mar 19, 2012

I have this issue in video recording.Will it be resolved if I install this custom firmware or custom ROMs?

Thanks

m.kochan10 · Mar 19, 2012

All custom roms are based on stock now, so I really don't think it's gonna make any difference. Maybe in a close future.
