[ZIP][ADV] Convert your CWR 3.0.0.5 SD to 3.0.1.0 and Vice-versa

---

Add these two zips I quickly put together to swap between 3.0.0.5 and 3.0.1.0 recovery on the same SD Card. This way if you want to test images for 2.2 Froyo you can quickly turn your SD into 3.0.0.5 and if you want to test for CM7 you can flash to 3.0.1.0 on the fly!!!

If you have any questions just ask. Please limit your questions to ONLY this topic.

I would think once you have 3.0.1.0 then you should be all set for 2.2 (ext3 FS) or CM7 (ext4 FS) as 3.0.1.0 supports both while 3.0.0.5 only supports ext3 thus why it won't work with CM7 as has ext4 FS...

Perhaps I'm mistaken when you say CWR 3.0.1.0 recovery for SDcard... I'm thinking you want this to write to SDcard??? If so then this seems wrong... your uRamdisk has /etc/recovery.fstab

# mount point fstype device [device2] [fstype2]

/boot vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
/system ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 NULL ext3
/data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p6 NULL ext3
/cache ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 NULL ext3
/emmc vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p8

/sdcard vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /dev/block/mmcblk1
/sd-ext ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 NULL ext3


This will write to EMMC Not SDcard... to have recovery write to SDcard you need this file to be;

# CWR 3.0.1.0 SDcard uRecRam: /etc/recovery.fstab
# mount point fstype device [device2] [fstype2]

/boot vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1
/system ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 NULL ext3
/data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p3 NULL ext3
/cache ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 NULL ext3
/emmc vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p4

/sdcard vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p4 /dev/block/mmcblk1
/sd-ext ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p4 NULL ext3

If you are just making an Sdcard that can be used to install to EMMC then sorry for commenting... but this is available in a number of different places while CWR 3.0.1.0 for Sdcard installs still doesn't exist thus why I was looking for someone to replace that file a couple days ago...

If you put these files on a SD card and boot to lets say 3.0.0.5 and flash the 3.0.1.0 it will write the files to the SDCARD and your sdcard will now boot into 3.0.1.0 recovery and you will have a 3.0.1.0 sdcard. Let me know if you understand. I think i'm explaining it correctly.

So just to be clear and state the obvious - these zip files update the recovery version on the bootable SD card and do not write anything to the eMMC recovery area. Is that correct?

Yes I believe you are correct. Place both files on the recovery SD and when you want to flash with 3.0.0.5 for like he said "FROYO" , just flash the 3.0.5.0.zip and it will replace the recovery kernel and ramdisk. And when you feel like flashing CM7, just flash the zip for 3.0.1.0 and "vice versa" as xboxexpert said.

Okay... so you are putting standard CWR 3.0.1.0 on the sdcard that can then be used to flash updates to EMMC as defined by your recovery.fstab... I guess the point being for folks who don't want flash CWR directly on EMMC so as to retain stock recovery...
