[02 Nov][RECOVERY][NAND|SD][cLK|MAGLDR] ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.6 "YES/NO" STABLE

[arif-ali]

Hi, folks

ClockworkMod Recovery (<- source).
"Changelog of ClockworkMod Recovery"

changes are here for some of the work we have done for support in RM

• https://github.com/arif-ali/cLK
• https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_leo

changes for the yes/no patch, and anything provided in this thread are here

• https://github.com/arif-ali/android_bootable_recovery
• https://github.com/arif-ali/android_device_htc_leo

If you cannot wait for new builds, then Arifs nightly builds are available here.

Features:

• Based on 5.0.2.6 sources
• Re-coded recovery and leo gits in few places to have the same CWR working for both MAGLDR and cLK
• Fixed cLK with versioning in cLK to add clk=1.4.0.1 to /proc/cmdline
• Now require cLK 1.4.0.1, rather than the 1.4 from cedesmith
• Compiled using official Offmode-Charging Fix by Koush
• Edited confirmation menu to show one "no" only
• Re-arranged YES / NO: YES now is on first place
• ReiserFS and NILFS Support
• Offmode-Charging with cLK ONLY
• SD-EXT backup / restore (no matter if Reiser, NILFS, ext 2/3/4)

You can flash this image easily from within Android; simply copy the file onto your sdcard and run following commands:

$ su
# flash_image recovery /sdcard/name_of_recovery_file.img

Maybe the flash_image command is not available on your build; you can find it attached. Copy it into /system/bin folder and run following in terminal emulator:

$ su
# chmod 777 /system/bin/flash_image

For cLK:

• You need android sdk installed and path variable set in windoze to "*androidsdk*/platform-tools" and "*androidsdk*/tools" (alternatively you can copy the .img into the tools folder of android sdk and operate from there)
• Flash appropiate cLK 1.4.0.1 layout from second post
• Download the file attached
• Boot your phone into fastboot mode (hold back key (left arrow) whilst powering on)
• Open a command line by pressing "windoze key+r" and typing "cmd", followed by enter
• Navigate to folder, which contains the recovery image
• Type "fastboot erase recovery" (<- not really necessary; just to make sure), followed by enter
• Type "fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery_file.img", followed by enter
• Type "fastboot reboot" for rebooting your phone
• Access recovery as described in cedesmiths thread (hold home key whilst powering on)
• You're done

For MAGLDR 1.13, booting from NAND:

• Download the file attached
• Download a partition layout incl. recovery from this thread which fits your ROM you want to use best and unzip it into "C:\recovery" for example
• Copy over the recovery image file from inside the zip archive into this folder "C:\recovery", delete existing "recovery-raw.img" and rename copied image file to "recovery-raw.img"
• Flash the recovery and partition layout using "DAF.exe" as usual and described in the thread of raiderx or the ROM provider
• Boot Recovery with menu point "8. AD Recovery"
• You're done

Note: For future updates of CWR it's best to set up a fixed boot partition size of 5M and not use the filesize flag in flash.cfg.
[/list]

For MAGLDR up to 1.13, booting from SDCard (SD-files version):

• Download the file attached
• Extract the files to the root directory of your sdcard
• Start recovery within MAGLDR with menu point "AD SD"
• Recovery should start
• You're done

For both via CWR:

• Download the *_CWR.zip file onto sdcard
• Go into recovery by either holding home key in cLK or using the 8. AD to recovery in MAGLDR
• Note: recovery-partition size of minimum 5MB needed
• Select Install zip from sdcard
• Select Choose zip from sdcard
• Navigate/Select the recovery from the sdcard
• Select yes to install the recovery
• reboot into recovery, and hooray, you are in the new recovery

  2. cache 44MB
  3. recovery 5MB
  4. misc 1MB
  5. system 80-160MB in 10MB steps, 180-400 in 20MB steps
  6. userdata = rest of available NAND
• Small Cache-size Version (requires initrd.gz which links /cache to userdata partition):

  2. cache 5MB
  3. recovery 5MB
  4. misc 1MB
  5. system 80-160MB in 10MB steps, 180-400 in 20MB steps
  6. userdata = rest of available NAND

stirkac made an exe installer with these layouts; it installs cLK and the desired layout automatically. You can find it here. Thank him

March 25, 2011

• Updated to 3.0.2.4 sources

March 17, 2011

March 15, 2011

• Backup'n Restore does what it is intended to
• cLK is running well and was updated to latest patches from cedesmith
• MAGLDR is running well if restored backups are from same version

March 14, 2011

• Second run, needs testing by MAGLDR users regarding full restore (mainly: Boot partition!)
• cLK is running well

March 10, 2011

• Initial release, 3.0.1.4, English only
• Bug with MAGLDR; removed

Notes:
- Backups from a previous version can't be restored with this one. However, backups from this version are fully working.
- Offmode charging is only possible with cLK; MAGLDR up to 1.13 isn't capable about that at this time, maybe in future releases.
- MAGLDR Versions are untested by me, here i'll need your feedback, especially regarding restorings from earlier versions (e.g 3.0.1.4 backup restored in 3.0.1.9 = working or not).

CWM "ChangeLog", but w/o Version No.

 

[dharvey4651]

Awesome. Only thing we really need now is a change log between different CWM versions as they come out.

PS>> Gave you an extra post in case you need it later.

 

[seadersn]

hmm, i'll look around if an official changelog already exists, otherwise i have to figure this out and write for myself, yes.

and thx for extra post

 

[karendar]

Hard to find an actual version history... All I found was ROM Manager's version history:

[seadersn]

xD hab ich's mir doch gedacht jap, wird's voraussichtlich in den nächsten drei stunden.

jep, it will

 

[-Spyros-]

Freu mich schon

Könntest du die ganze Recovery übersetzen [E-D]?
Oder ist das unmöglich?

Could you translate the whole recovery?
Or is that impossible?

 

[seadersn]

nope, this isn't impossible; but this is really too much for me atm maybe in about a week, german only.

 

[-Spyros-]

We can wait
You have so much time

BEAUTIFUL!

Can this be used with MAGLDR 1.11!?!?
If yes can you please provide me with the kernel and initrd to replace the existing ones on SDcard!?

Thx

Any chance you can add reiserfs and btrfs support when making a Nandroid Backup and Restore?

 

[karendar]

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_bootable_recovery#

Here's the original Github for the Gingerbread Clockwork recovery... I haven't programmed in so long I don't think I'm of any help with this.

Pongster, I'm digging through gits to see if anyone had this implemented already in a modded version.

 

[seadersn]

hi,

thx for the github link; anyway i've already added it to the first post unfortunately a changelog or sth similar isn't arising from the sources but thx, again.

regarding reiser+btr: i don't know this much of programming, what i did was an (easy) change of existing code, but if it's already present in the source code and one only needs the mount points, this is no problem, i believe
i can have a further, deeper look into that, but it would take a while if it's not present and i have to change the code and i will definitively need help. no assurance about that
regarding magldr 1.11: life engineer, i will pm you a version for testing. maybe tomorrow morning, GMT+1?
@ spyros, from where do you know that i have plenty of time, he?

hey seadersn,

I have been looking at the compilation of recovery as well, and a thought about drivers came about. Which kernel are you using are using the same one in device/htc/leo, or the one compiled by cedesmith. I think in order to get the reiserfs or btrfs, then all we need to do is compile our own kernel with the mods, and put it in the right place and it should work.

I will give it a test with my kernel this evening

with respect to the initrd and zImage, that's easy to get, You need the following 2 files

out/target/product/leo/kernel
out/target/product/leo/ramdisk-recovery.img

but again this needs testing, unless someone else can confirm this

seadersn, check this out: Post from the desire forums... Looks like ReiserFS might be supported in Clockwork directly. Just need to edit .config:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10488102&postcount=432

Alot of the kernels already have ReiserFS and btrfs, I believe...
