Developers info

You can fetch source from this link (cm-10.1 branch):
https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/philz_touch_cwm6

I no longer maintain the jellybean branch
Before you start, make sure you can build stock cwm from cm-10.1 source
I have no more time to maintain cm10 (Jellybean) tree sadly
Just replace your bootable/recovery folder with this one and lunch for your device

It could be you need to edit these files for your device:
- device_config.h
- Android.mk

If it doesn't build or errors, post log/error here and I will help if I can

What you get:
- all CWM Advanced Edition features I added, as listed in post 1, include all custom backup and restore, ors support, nandroid compression, multi zip flashing...

Missing Features from github source:
- all gui options, include touch code
- name the backup folder with current ROM name
- custom zip install menu (Free Browse Mode + custom startup folder)
- Create Update.zip from current ROM or from pre-existing backups
- misc nandroid settings menu (but /preload is included by default and I added option to toggle compression under backup format menu)

Please, do not ask for touch source, I will never share it, release it public or make it commercial...
Why?
Answer: in this post

Adding full PhilZ Touch version support for your device

Quote:

If it builds for your device, you can ask me here to release full Touch GUI version for your device
Please attach a recent recovery.img and boot.img stock files
Post a link to source for any changes you eventually had to make
Also, if lun path is different, post it with your request
If you need a specific feature for your custom kernel, just let me know by PM

Please, do not remove credits headers and give proper credit if you use this code to your proper needs
Also, think at pushing fixes to my github if you find bugs that you fix or if you add new features

PhilZ Touch 5 Quick Guide
It is based on Koush clockworkmod 6.x to which I added many features and a full reliable touch interface
Version 5 brings mainly a true touch and scroll interface with a much more optimized and portable touch source

How to select your .android_secure path

In Custom Backup and Restore operations, you can select the target/source for android.secure or disable it

In stock backup/restore operations, include those started with ROM Manager, you can also force a target/source for .android_secure

basically, recovery will check first external storage for a .android_secure folder. If it doesn't find it, it will look in internal storage

If you want for example .android_secure to be in internal sd, just delete .android_secure folder from external sd and ensure there is a .android_secure folder in internal sd

for external sd, just ensure there is a .android_secure folder in it. It will be chosen what ever is the internal sd state

Custom Backup and Restore menu

This is one of the most powerful features of this recovery.
It is made completely open source code, built from sratch. Just keep credits headers and give proper credit if you use them

You can select which partitions you want to backup or restore

You can choose your .android_secure source and target or even disable it

You can set it to reboot directly after job is done

backups will go under the folder clockworkmod/backup (please move all contents of custom_backup folder used in previous versions to the default backup folder in cwm)

TWRP backups go under stock TWRP/BACKUPS/device_id folder and will be automatically recognized by TWRP

Custom Restore Menu allows you to restore from any of the stock clockworkmod backups, the custom backups or the TWRP backups

If your backup folder was moved to /sdcard/0/clockworkmod after installing Android 4.2, you can go through the Custom Restore process. When it prompts you to browse sdcards, it should show an additional menu to offer you to browse Android 4.2 folder (/sdcard/0). The additional menu is shown only if recovery detects a /sdcard/0/clockworkmod folder on /data/media devices

efs is backed up under clockworkmod/backup/.efs_backup

modem.bin files can be named any_thing.bin and must go under clockworkmod/backup/.modem_bin

if you enable compression and disable md5, your backups will no more be recognized by stock cwm builds. Otherwise, all stock and custom backups are backward compatible with stock cwm (except special partitions like preload, recovery, modem and efs which stock cwm doesn't support)

you can now recreate md5 sum for any backup you want. Use with caution!

Open Recovery Script Support (ORS): revised and adapted from original sk8erwitskil source

On start, recovery looks automatically for /cache/recovery/openrecoveryscript installed by goomanager or any tasker. If it finds it, it is run and phone will reboot

You can also add custom ors scripts you edit your self:
When pressing the ors menu, it will look at default locations for your custom scripts:
clockworkmod/ors first in external_sd, then in internal sd. Put your custom scripts there with file extension .ors
That way you can access your jobs (flash, wipe, backup, restore...) instantly
If no scripts are found in default folder, you get option to browse both sdcards for a custom location

To learn how to write ors scripts to automate your backup/restore/wipe/flash tasks, read here, it is very easy: http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/OpenRecoveryScript

Give Goomanager a try

All backup and restore options are supported except special partitions 1, 2 and 3 (could add modem, efs and preload linked to them later)

/preload will be included with /system if you enabled the /preload option in Misc Nandroid Settings

you have an extra here: you can set the target volume for ors backups under Misc Nandroid Settings menu

Aroma File Manager Support *Adapted from amarullz and sk8erwitskil
You get here the possibility to browse your phone with root access in a friendly GUI file browser, while being in recovery
You even now get a terminal emulator to run in recovery

Download Aroma File Manager from its Home Page

Get the 1.80 version and name the file aromafm.zip

Put the aromafm.zip in clockworkmod/aromafm/aromafm.zip in external or internal sdcards

In recovery, tap the Aroma File Manager menu or double tap any part of the screen outside menus

It will launch the file manager automatically

Double tap gesture linked to Aroma File Manager can be altered in the GUI Settings menu

Touch GUI Preferences:
This is another unique feature of this recovery and is built from scratch

You can toggle through 4 touch modes:
Full Touch: menus are validated by touching them. I added extra checks to make it robust to validation by error while scrolling. After scrolling, your first touch will only highlight touched menu instead of validate it. If a delay of 1 sec passed, it will validate immeadiately on touch
Double Tap: menus are highlighted on first touch. To validate action, you need to double tap the same menu
Semi Touch: the classic semi-touch interface I enhanced. Menus are selected/highlighted on first touch. You can scroll by swiping up/down, but no validation on touch.
Disable Touch: touch code completely disabled. You have all gui options left, but only hardware keys

When Full Touch mode is selected, it will automatically set recommended menu height, touch accuracy and scroll sensitivity. You can alter them later if you want

Scroll sensitivity controls scrolling on swipe up/down. Lower values are the most sensitive. Adjust this based on selected menu height

Touch accuracy: increase it if your touch gestures are not well accounted for

Config files are saved in /data/philz-touch/philz-touch_5.ini file.

You can do a backup of your settings file, it will go under /sdcard/clockworkmod/philz-touch.ini.bak

You can choose to be prompted to restore your settings whenever they are wiped while you have a backup. You can also set recovery to auto-restore them when needed. This check is done when you reboot to main system from within recovery

There are many gesture actions that you can setup at your wish (some default actions are setup by default)

Long press/move is the bad equivalent to a long press gesture action: just that after one sec of touch, slightly move your finger or change the pressure surface without actually lifting it

Your screen should auto-dim automatically after one minute and turn off after 3 mn. You can change those time settings. Just touch the screen to reset brightness and turn it on

All GUI parts can be customized: menu hight, text colors, menu colors, selection colors, background color and icon, menu seprators, battery and clock, header text...

To setup a custom background image: put a png image with your device resolution in a folder clockworkmod/custom_res

You can take screen shots from recovery display by the slide left gesture (change it at your wish). Pics captures will go under clockworkmod/screen_shots folder. External storage will be always used first. If no external storage is found, internal storage is used. You can take up to 999 pics before it resets to 1

Setup Free Browse Mode and Multi-zip Installer:

Free Browse Mode:
You can setup a default folder from where the Install Zip menu will start

From within your set default folder, you can now browse backward up to the root file system to install a zip file

Multi-zip Installer menu:
Lets you select multiple zip files to flash at the same time

The zip files must go into a subfolder under: "clockworkmod/multi_flash"

At least one subfolder with your zip files must be created. You can create as many subfolders as you want

exp: clockworkmod/multi_flash/NEAT_ROM_files

Easy Log View and Pause on Logs:

In Easy Log View mode, your logs will have a smaller size to better fit the screen. This will be completely revised in upcoming v5 though

Pause on Logs: when enabled, after flashing a zip file or doing a nandroid job, you will be prompted for a key to return to menu display. That way, logs are kept in full screen. Obviously, no pause will be performed on boot scripts and multi-zip operations

How to Install

This will depend on your device. Please look first for help in your device specific thread.
Provided instructions here ARE NOT VALID for all phone

Recovery (.zip) packages instructions
They come in the form of .zip files that can be flashed in cwm recovery

Download philz_touch_xxx.zip file

Put the previously downloaded philz_touch_xxx.zip file on your sd card

Boot into recovery (volume up+home+power)

Select "Install zip" and browser to your downloaded zip file.

Now select the philz_touch_xxx.zip fileyou copied in previous step

You will have PhilZ Touch Recovery flashed

Odin packages instructions: Samsung Only
They come in the form of .tar.md5 file

boot into download mode

start odin3 and configure it as in picture below

connect phone in download mode to PC via USB

press start to flash the tar.md5 package

normally, phone should auto-reboot into recovery.
If it reboots into main system and your recovery remains stock, repeat above steps and untick "autoreboot" in odin. Once flash is done, keep pressing the 3 buttons combo to for a reboot into recovery.You should see the new CWM

when in recovery, if you choose option "reboot system now" and you get "yes - disable flash recovery", select that option to avoid stock recovery overwriting cwm

to remove yellow triangle, use TriangleAway

Root your phone and reset Yellow Triangle
coming....
