Info:
Kernel compiled from sources update3
No sensors flashing: fast boot in recovery
Root allowed
Selinux enforced mode preserved
Built in NTFS/Exfat kernel module support for fast backups

Recovery: based on cm-11.0 kitkat branch

More info:
At worst, it would bootloop and you have to know how to get out of a bootloop, that's it
But you're still warned: Read Post 1

Can you build a version for SM-N9005 hlte?

[jetbruceli]

Great your here! Best recovery option! Now can you get some of your buddies to push us an aosp rom??

First, someone has to flash it so that we debug it
The risks are a boot hand so you need odin to flash another recovery
Either selinux missing permissions I will add later or needed graphics.c

Waiting for feedback

 

[FireWall123]

Yay \(^o^)/
I've been waiting for you Phil

Are you kidding?
It works?
LoL
Never thought on first release. This has no device tree. I built near from scratch, based on twrp broken device tree for cwm

Big thanks. I am removing noob warnings in op so that we start debugging where needed

I have to thank you...I don't like TWRP, so I used CWM so far...but as I use Sammy Flip Cover, it is really hard to handle volume buttons....now I don't need them any more

EDIT: Thx for mentioning me in OP...but please correct my nick ...its a funny kind of my initials (A.B.) and the number behind is quite clear I guess

Nice to see this ramping-up :good:

Obvious warning that should be added to the top post - like every single custom (non-Samsung) recovery so far, this is also tripping the Knox flag.

Fixed with your correct nick

- is backup to exfat extrnal sd ok?
- mount usb storage and OTG USB?
- format usb otg in exfst/ntfs/ext4/ext2?
- boot into recovery is fast?
- time/date?

If all ok I will clean it and release other variants

- will test backup...right now not enough free space on external sd
- usb storage mounting does not work
- won't test format
- boot in recovery is fast enough - same as before on regular CWM
- time/date not showing up correctly...for me it is 10.05 am now and it shows up 20.12 pm though I set the correct timezone

Backup to extsdcard (fat) OK : Time 20min
Backup usb otg OK : Time 10 min
don't try format
boot in recovery speed time seem to be the same as normal cwm
time/date : in cwm I had 23h29 instead of 14h32 (I'm in france), in backup name the date is false (01_01_1970)

aromafm feature not working.

i have /aromafm/aromafm.zip in the clockworkmod folder on internal storage and sdcard...

Philz touch can´t found this folder...
"now clockworkmod/aromafm/aromafm.zip in storage paths"


i started aromafm.zip via install zip -> Choose zip from /sdcard -> clockworkmod -> aromafm -> aromafm.zip and this work it...

go in the sdcard folder ... -> empty! no data found on internal storage...

external storage is this problem too.

I can't check, I'm on mac. Try with virtual machine without success but it's not a good test.

Find an old flashdrive to try some format :

vfat : OK
extfat : OK on windows (VM), not on mac (ask to initialise the disc)
ntfs : OK

Don't have the driver to test the other.
