Nice going there! You used 2.35 kernel for this?
Also touchscreen not working anyway in recovery so that's not really a problem.
You are able to create/restore backups? Tried flashing any custom rom?
Also have a look at /tmp/recovery.log

Yeah, I extracted it from boot.img. I saw stockwell had this working, maybe he had a custom recovery kernel for that. The rebooting issue is making thing hard, I almost backed it up, but it rebooted, so that's the main problem. If I get that fixed, I'll try flashing/backup.

Also, in 2.2, I was able to just start the phone with volume down + power, to get to recovery, but in 2.3, this doesn't work for me. I can only get there when I use "adb reboot recovery".

-EDIT-
Got it working, thanks genti7. It starts with vol up + power.

I don't have time today, will continue tomorrow. I realized that the /boot partition is wrong, can someone help me with this? Maybe the data one is wrong too, the logs say something about that. I'll post correct details tomorrow.

The reboot is probably because you aren't running the rmt_storage server. The modem needs this to run and so reboots the phone without it. The HW recovery mounts /system to run it which is a stupid idea because /system may not always be there. rmt_server needs some shared libs so you will have to copy them to the recovery image too.

Attached is a recovery that I made, it's v4 but should work. I just modified the hw recovery so it needs a working /system. Obviously there's nothing to flash yet (and you won't be able to flash the old ROMs because amss has changed). I don't intend to support this but feel free to try it out.

Thanks. Will do today.

Dzo did you upgrade AMSS to 2.3.5 beta or did you stay on B138SP04?

well, about the CWM recovery,you can try the recovery Genokolar has released for the u8800+(or pro), it can work fine. I have tried it, and i have flashed a zip successfully!
PS: i am using u8800 (not u8800+), the official 2.3.5(u8800) has the same partition as u8800+.

    It happens because the 3.4 kernel is still very unstable.

    The problem has been fixed, as said on the ROM thread. I will update the recovery once I do some more changes to the kernel (rebasing to a newer branch).

    I just uploaded experimental touch recovery build 1. Check the first page for details.

    Added v6.0.4.6 recovery, which will be required to install cm-11.0 (to come). If you have any issues, please report here or at GitHub.
