Latest 4eXT Recovery Touch v1.0.0.6_RC1 as PG88IMG

jmcclue · May 12, 2013

Latest 4eXT Recovery Touch as PG88IMG incase anyone wants/needs to use it For s-off devices. Download the PG88IMG.zip file, put it on the root of your sdcard (Not in a folder) then boot in to bootloader, bootloader will find the zip and ask to update recovery, press volume UP for yes and your done. Just reboot.

Edit: has been confirmed to work with s-on with unlocked bootloader (htcdev)

I don't think it would work for S-On users. It's like when u trying to update your radio with an image.

Updated to latest recovery

I'm S-on and it works. I needed a recovery capable of flashing CM11, and this version works!

Nope, I flashe the .img file via fastboot

Ok thanks. Was hoping someone with s-on would try the PG88IMG method to see if it works.

I didn't try with this file, but when I was on CM10.1 I tried the method you described, but it didn't work. The only way to install a custom rec if you're S-ON is via fastboot. This is my experience.

Cheers

On S-OFF the method with the file on sd-card and the bootloader to find it - it works.

Hi there,
I'm new to HTC DS. Tonight i unlocked trough htcdev.com, but still have S-ON with HBOOT 2.00.0002
After unlocking i installed 4ext.
But for cm11.0 i needed an newer 4ext.

So i installed it with your guidance. And it worked flawlessly!
Only thing is, that after a reboot it again finds the p88 file and it wants to update again.
I don't know how I overcame this, but after three times i got into touch recovery.
Flashed cm11 and all went fine.

@jmcclue

I would urgently need 4ext in the newest Version for my HTC Sensation.
Sadly your zip isn`t working.
Also not if I rename the File that my Sensation Bootloader detects this as Update.

Can you help me?

I wiped the ROM - so right now I don`t have a chance to install 4ext via a File .apk

@eriche

Sorry for late reply, it doesnt detect or work coz this file is for the Desire S

Anyway download the one below, PG58IMG.zip, i just made it for you, its for the sensation and is latest 4ext recovery v1.0.0.6 RC2

Everyone else, file attached (PG58IMG) is for the sensation only!!!

eriche · Jun 11, 2014

Thank you very much jmcclue!

Maybe it would help if you could write a short Tutorial how you can generate this zip file for a specific Mobile Phone

I am very interested in it.

It depends really, u need to be s-off to use it and each htc phone has different file name,

htc desire - PB99IMG
htc desire s - PG88IMG
htc sensation\XE - PG58IMG

so if u extract that file ul see "android-info.txt + "recovery.img" and thats all u need. Take the recovery.img from the device u want to use it on and then get the android-info.txt file and use 7zip to zip the 2 files together and name it, for example PG58IMG and ur done. Simple really. Just make sure that the recovery is named recovery.img for it to work.

sounds great - thank you for your help

There is a newer recovery out RC3, so once u flash the rom, download the 4ext recovery updater app then update ur recovery. Il update my thread later sometime.
