Angry [RecoveryMenu] CWM based Recovery menu to enter stock or CWM recovery

CWM based Recovery menu for Huawei U9000 Ideos X6 phone

[which is also known as CherryMobile Magnum, Wellcomm A99, Spice CSL Mi 410]





[Features Working]

  • Boot into Clockworkmod recovery [stably ]
  • Boot into stock recovery [stably ]
  • ADB recovery support

[Requirements]
  • One of these mobiles: CherryMobile Magnum, Wellcomm A99, Spice CSL Mi 410etc. (with any ROM installed, rooted / un-rooted)
  • USB data cable / Working CWM recovery


[Installation Instructions]
[Using CWM recovery]
  • Copy recovery_menu_v2.0.0.1_signed.zip in sdcard
  • Boot into recovery (Steps are given below for how-to-boot-into-recovery)
  • Use "install zip from sdcard" option
  • Locate and choose recovery_menu_v2.0.0.1_signed.zip from sdcard for instllation
  • After installation reboot into recovery (advanced > Reboot recovery)

[Using
USB cable]
  • Extract recovery.img from recovery_menu_v2.0.0.1_signed.zip
  • Power off your phone. Now press Volume UP + Power button to enter in Download mode (Please keep Volume UP button pressed for a second before pressing Power button)
  • Connect your phone to PC via USB and wait until USB-Storage device appears on your PC (In Linux, you might see loads of new devices being mounted. But we are concerned about the device with name as 'FIH')
  • Replace file recovery.img inside the folder image (In windows, X:\image\, where X is drive letter for new USB device)
  • Safely remove USB device to ensure complete file copy
  • Disconnect phone from PC
  • Remove battery of your phone to power off and then start it again.

[Instructions to boot into recovery]
[Using ADB]
  • If your phone is up and running then connect it to PC
  • Issue following command through terminal / Command prompt
Code:
adb reboot  recovery
[Without PC - Using your phones hardware keys]
  • Power off your phone
  • Now press Volume UP + Volume DOWN + Power (As said before, please press Volume keys for a second before pressing Power button)
  • The phone will take few seconds (5 - 10 secs) to boot into recovery mode (It will show splash screen before booting into recovery)

[Navigation]

(Same as CWM recovery)
  • Select = Power & Search
  • Move Up = Home & Vol-Up
  • Move Down = Menu & Vol-Down
  • Back = Back

[Releases]
  • recovery_menu_v1.0.0.1 (Options for Android System recovery <3e> and CWM based recovery 4.0.1.4) [Download Link1] [Download link2 for MIUI/CM]
  • recovery_menu_v1.0.0.2 (Fixed support for ext4 filesystem - problems related to MIUI and CM ROM releases) [Download link]
  • recovery_menu_v2.0.0.1 (Options for Android System recovery <3e> and CWM based recovery 5.0.2.3) [Download link]

[Problems]
  • Not that I know of.


[Disclaimer]


I am not to be held liable/responsible if you damage your phone by following/not following this thread.



[Acknowledgement]

  • DooMLoRD for patiently helping me out with all my doubts
  • koush for his CWM bootable recovery sources.

[For developers]
I will push my sources on github soon.

[Complete zip file for CWM based installation]
I guess here everyone must have working CWM recovery on their device. In that case just place the downloaded recovery_menu_v1.0.0.1_signed.zip file in your sdcard and install it using CWM recovery's "install zip from sdcard" option.

[Only recovery.img file for USB based instalation]
Otherwise just extract recovery.img from the zip file and replace it from /image folder that you will find in USB device that gets loaded when you conect your phone to PC in download mode.

Do you mean flashing using CWM recovery. In that case, I have not flashed recovery.img like we do for boot.img
I have just extracted it to FIH partition. You can check my updater script in META-INF/google/android/updater-script file from zip
