I must be in stupid mode today !!

Have been running Galaxy S3 with PhilZ Touch for some time now .... superb :good:

Got a new Nexus 10 last week and want it on there as well ..... stupid bit coming now :confused:

Downloaded latest version from this thread - but it shows as "philz_touch_5.00.7-manta.img"

Not a zip or a tar file for Odin ..... what am I missing from under my nose?

Sounds like you need to flash using fastboot, or wait until he posts a zip to flash.

Houston, Renfrewshire - not bleedin' Texas
I'm back again!!

[I've put the image file into the "put_img_files_to_flash_here" Folder]

Took Option 11 in the Toolkit - Boot or Flash .IMG Files to Device,

Then option 2 to Flash to Device Permanently

Now I've got the option of which partition to flash to:

1. Boot
2. Bootloader
3. Cache
4. Recovery
5. System
6. UserData

Don't want to mess that up, so ........ what's the correct choice?

I would assume "Recovery", since that's what this is...

I've got it downloaded, and was getting ready to try it out also on my N10. I'd love to see this for the Galaxy Nexus (toro / CDMA) as well -- not on the list of supported devices.

Yes, it was fixed in this version
It is related to the /data/media toggle I added. Sadly, it could affect you even if you do not toggle/use the option

It is related to the fact that CWM was effectively mounting it (that is removing and recreating the link) on each mount try
Could cause issues under really rare circumstances like copying data through adb shell while playing with CWM options

Yup -- I installed it yesterday,and this morning used it to flash the latest mrRobinson build of AOKP PUB (unofficial). Worked just fine, and offers a few nice features beyond those in the official CWM recovery. Wiped and flashed perfectly as far as I can tell.

Same here. Installed. Then proceeded to flash mrRob newest today. Saw no issues that I can tell. Looks nice and send to me much quicker than the standard cwm. It did backup cache and recovery image. That is something I usually don't do, buy I don't guess it could hurt. +1 for me, thanks

    This variant of CWM really fcked up my NEXUS 10. I downloaded the latest 5.15.0 "philz touch" according to the OP now my device won't boot into recovery or bootloader. AND I HAVE NO OS INSTALLED. The ORIGINAL CWM should be more easy to find, rather than these sketchy "better editions". Wtf do I do now ORIGINAL POSTER.?

    I understand the frustration -- but you get a lot more help in a forum like this if you can avoid trashing other people's work, and blaming them for something you chose to do of your own free will. If you took a close look at all the threads where Phil3759 participates, the people that make use of his recovery are generally thrilled with it, and recognize it as a solid, feature rich tool with a lot of attention paid to performance, compatibility and user interface. Take a look at his profile -- you won't see many posters here with over 19,000 "thanks". That's a pretty solid testimony to the value he brings to the forum.

    Every single piece of custom code on this forum comes along with warnings, and a reasonable expectation that people will read them. If you're not prepared to undo whatever a utility like this does, you should think twice about flashing it. If you need help, instead of denigrating a fine piece of code that's been made available, free of charge, to us, and blaming the developer, you might try explaining what you did, clearly and in detail, and asking for help -- nicely, and with the respect that the developer deserves.

    BTW: Philz Touch has worked splendidly on my GNex (toro) and Nexus 10. Never an issue. It is, in short, the best recovery I've used over the past few years. The only reason I've temporarily replaced it with CWM Touch is to be able to flash 4.4 ROMs. If and when Phil has time to incorporate the latest core CWM code (from 6.0.4.3 or later), then I'll switch back to Philz Touch in a heartbeat.

    In the meantime -- you should read up on Fastboot, and tools like the Wugfresh Nexus Root Toolkit. If you can learn Fastboot and ADB directly, that's best, as you'll know exactly what's going on and have total control of the commands being issued to your device. Wug's toolkit is excellent, and if you search a bit, you'll find one or two others with similar functionality. In short - using Fastboot, you'll be able to replace the recovery on your N10, and start fresh.
