[RECOVERY] Cannibal Open Touch v2.1 (latest update: 12/1/2012)

---

Project Open Cannibal presents...
Cannibal Open Touch v2.1 for Samsung Nexus S 4G

About Cannibal Open Touch:
Cannibal Open Touch is the next generation of custom recoveries. Jam-packed with cool and useful features, it can handle just about anything you can throw at it.

Main Features:
1. Support for both Edify and Amend scripting (flash all ROMS!)
2. Theme support
3. Touch screen button controls!
4. GooManager support!
5. Internal e2fsprogs for size
6. Backported “retouch binaries” patch for ICS/JB compatibility
7. Advanced Backup
8. Delete old backups!
9. Persistent settings
10. User-defined backup locations!
11. ADB Sideload
12. Touchscreen calibration

Why the name Cannibal Open Touch?
Because we can. The name also embodies everything that Cannibal Open Touch is. It is no longer just a variant of ClockworkMod Recovery, it is it's own recovery by itself. Combining features from ClockworkMod 5, Team UtterChaos' Sony Xperia recovery, AmonRa 3.0.6, Xionia CWMA and a heaping helping of our own special enhancements it is truly revolutionary.

What to do when an error occurs:
DO NOT simply say "xxxx doesn't work" as that is highly unhelpful and will probably be ignored. Instead, post the recovery log! To grab a log when an error occurs, simply open a terminal (or command prompt if on Windows), "cd" to an easily accessible directory and execute:

adb pull /tmp/recovery.log

Paste the log as an attachment (don't paste the text inside, as it can be quite lengthy), or paste it on pastebin.com.

WARNING!
If you are upgrading from a previous version of Cannibal Open Touch you must delete the settings.ini file located in the cotrecovery folder on your sdcard!

Flashing instructions:
1. Download the Cannibal Open Touch recovery image.
2. Reboot your device to bootloader mode (adb reboot bootloader)
3. Flash the image with fastboot (fastboot flash recovery /path/to/recovery.img)
4. Reboot to recovery mode
5. PROFIT!

WARNING!
This has only been tested on the NS4G models (crespo4g); while it is hightly probable this will work on the Nexus S (crespo) we cannot confirm this at this time (at best I would expect assert errors with rom zips).

Awesome, the Blood Red theme looks 3D kinda, or maybe... . Have gone through some of the basic's, dalvik cache, flashing zips (kernels), fixing permissions, mounting USB mass storage, mounting/un-mounting other partitions, haven't played around with any of the features you'd use to flash a new ROM (at least flashing them the right way) or the NANDROID features, although there is a settings menu for the actual Cannibal Recovery which include some things you might want to change depending on which recovery you were using before switching and for the prompts (no no no yes no no). It also includes calibrate touchscreen which you want to do first thing, use the volume rockers to get to the the calibration then you can use the software buttons on the bottom with precision. For some reason when you go to partition management though, you click on it, then the screen flashes and your back where you just were, then when you click on partition management again it actually goes into the menu. Another thing is that the settings are not persistent, hopefully I'm just missing something. It's really not that big of a deal, just remembering to do it....I really like this recovery

Seems interesting, might try it later tonight...

Will this work for the GSM Nexus S?

I've never seen a recovery that worked for both gsm & cdma nexus s. So, my bet is no.

Make sure you have a recovery img file to flash back. Their website specifically states this is ONLY for ns4g

Try booting to android and then back to recovery. I had that the first time I flashed it in too.
