Thank you very much for your kind words

But I really can't take any credits, as this is still 99,99% Koush's extremely great work. To take credits wouldn't be fair at all to say the least. Also the few additions I added are ridiculous!

Updated

Features | Fixes v1.0.3

  • Now dynamically detects if you have an sd-ext partition or not at startup
    This hides sd-ext from the menus and prevents a (cosmetic) error message from appearing (couldn't format sd-ext et.c.)
  • Added menu items in the "ext3 <-> ext4" menu to explicitly format / wipe data EXT3 or EXT4 regardless of the filesystem currently on your partitions
    (comes in handy if you install your first EXT4 rom, because your partitions are formatted EXT3 at that time.)
  • Prints information on startup about which filesystem was detected on your partitions ( EXT3 or EXT4)
  • ..Together with a help text telling that because your current partitions are EXT3/EXT4, the wiping/formatting functions will use that filesystem and
    that you could change that in the ext3 <-> ext4 menu
  • If it detects EXT3 partitions it will tell you that you might want to convert them to EXT4 if you are already using an EXT4 rom and that
    if you are going to install an EXT4 rom you might want to explicitly wipe EXT4 through the same menu
  • If you restore a backup you didn't create with 4EXTRecovery, so without any additional filesystem info, it will print a warning,
    that the backup will be restored using the filesystem currently on your partitions and that you might
    want to explicitly set the correct filesystem for this backup in the ext3<->ext4 menu if this should be wrong.

    (for example if your current filesystem is EXT4 and you are restoring an EXT3 backup not created by 4EXT)

(non critical) Bugfix Release v1.0.4



There was bug if you used the new feature introduced with v1.0.3 yesterday
to wipe data regardless of the filesystem you currently have:


The feature to explicitly wipe EXT4, regardless of which filesystem you currently have on your partitions,
which was introduced in 1.0.0.3 worked the opposite: it formatted ext3 instead of ext4

The usual 4EXTRecovery feature (since 1.0.0) to always format/wipe with the same filesystem currently found on your partitions:
-> So that you don't lose EXT4, once you have EXT4, worked as usual.
It was just the new feature where you can wipe data using a different filesystem (not currently on your partitions) that was wrong.
I'm sorry for that!

If you used that feature, there was no big harm, as your rom would still work as usual, but you should use the function in the ext3 <-> ext4 menu to convert to ext4 again!

The recovery will tell you when you boot it, that it detected ext3 partitions!
