yes i no i have to remove it, my question is how do it do it via terminal. i no how to do with fastboot like it mentions in the first post, but like i said, i cannot get usb working. my only option is via terminal. =\

Download the Better terminal app from market,
mount, put the file on the root of your SD card, unmount
Open better terminal and enter:

$su ((if prompt opens say allow))
#flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-magic-v1.3.2G.img

Worked for me, hope it does for you as well

NguyenHuu · Nov 16, 2009

thanks, but please everyone read my question. i am asking how to REMOVE/ERASE the recovery via terminal. I know how to flash already. I need to erase because I am getting the no space error.

EDIT: ok now i just try flashing it again and it works now. whew. testing it now hope all the commands work.

Why can't I type numbers into my terminal? I press the number, but nothing shows up! :'(

the file looks like this - recovery-RA-magic-v1.3.2G.img

rename it to this - recovery-RA-magic.img

then use the terminal to flash, i had the same problem not being able to type the numbers but it works now

with it renamed.

Amon RA Apps to SD Card

Hello everybody. I do apologize if i am writting this on the wrong thread. I just registered today.

I have a problem with the Amon RA 1.2.2 not being able to install apps to my
SD Card. On system recovery i select the option to install apps on sd card but apps are still being sent to the phone memory. I dont know if i have type in a command in the terminal or not because all i did was to select that option. I am running KINGcKx latest HERO ROM which is working fine does anybody have any ideas? My card has been partition. Any help will be appriciated. Thank You.

That problem was solved in v1.3.2, you are still using v1.3.1..
Also make sure that you don't restore an old nandroid backup which restores an older recovery (like v1.3.1).
When you boot in recovery mode it should read v1.3.2!

That option in v1.2.2 only moves the apps to ext, it doesn't do anything more.
If you want to use apps2sd (so actually use the apps you moved) you'll need to have a rom that supports it. Check with your rom dev how to do this.

Oops my bad. ill make sure ill update it asap.
but i can restore an older backup then reflash the recovery and taking another backup?

Also is it possible to simply rename the backupfolders ??
as it is now it just says date and time and im pretty bad at remembering what backup containts what rom.

- Restoring an older backup and reflashing the recovery will work

- The name of the backupfolders are set by the Nandroid script, I didn't update the script, I just provided and interface for it. The problem is that the Magic doesn't have a keyboard so it's not easy to give a rom a name...

i can always toggle masstorage and plug it in via usb to my computer and renaming it like that.

this happened to me because i had the phone plugged into the power, pc usb, etc... what i did is i unplugged it then the phone recognized the file because it says setting up sdcard etc.. that's probly your problem.

hikki2000 · Nov 17, 2009

Amon_RA, suggest you change the wording 'wipe data partition' back to 'wipe data/factory reset', wipe data partition is a bit confusing to noob...?

Fstab is a file, not a folder. This file has the info of what is going to be mounted and where.

Probably the same problem as Burnomatic describes.
The sdcard cant be reached by the phone if its mounted by the computer.

I understand that but my problem is that when I run the "mount -a" I get back this error:
mount: cannot read /etc/fstab: no such file or director

just to clarify my phone is not pluged into usb/power/anything and I did switch user to root...
also the rom is Her

ver's vMT3G.2 "Slick Willy"
....any other suggestions?

I was having trouble flashing roms so I used a vodafone uk nandroid image and now I have lost root access.

Checking on my fastboot, it has changed from:
PVT 32B ship s-on G
to:
PVT 32B eng s-off H

Presumably because I have flashed crios eng spl.

So my question is, "s-off H" is found on 32A HTC branded devices, and my phone is a 32B Google branded. So what amon ra recovery should I use?

im assuming because its a 32B board i should use G and not H.
Am I correct.

Well if you look here at amon's instructions to root the mt3g...
he has you switch your phone from "G" to "H" and when you do that he has you load his "H" recovery even though the mt3g is "G"
then he has you go back to "G" and after you do that he has you using his "G" version

Thats just what I got from it heres the original so you can check it out
