[m8spr][CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch

[metalfan78]

Nevermind, touch gui got disabled somehow, lol

There was a problem reported with CWM back on the OG EVO, so I used AmonRa. Then with the Jewel, I used TWRP, so honestly, I'm unfamiliar with this recovery.

However, I made a backup of Steal's stock ROM on my external sd card, and the recovery said it was successful.

But, after I couldn't get past the splash screen on their new build, I tried to restore from my external sd card, and it claimed there were no files found. So, I tried internal, just to see if I'm senile, and no files found.

I did click the option for TWRP style or whatever, but shouldn't it still find it?

Anyway, I'm glad I kept those files handy so I could do a fresh install of the original release.

Try unchecking twrp mode, I have it unchecked and it sees my backup files

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind. I was trying to hold out until the new TWRP dropped last night, but obviously there is a delay.

Files do not disappear by their own
Read the FAQ to understand why when using some cm/aokp based work you don't see your files, and how you can see them !

I used flashify from the play store and got philz flashed. Does anyone know how to fix the error I had? I searched around but didn't see the exact same one

I get this error as well. I am dev unlocked only so far. With adb, my laptop does see my device. How did you solve this? You can PM me to keep the thread cleaner if you like. Thanks for any help.

See on mine how there is no .img on the end? That's why it errors.

 

[henderjr]

You have to make you have the full filename including .IMG or whatever the extension is. Also your command prompt has to be pointing to the same directory the file you are flashing. I was getting the same error at first when I unlocked on Tuesday

Does this has twrp restores working

No, you can't restore a backup made with a different recovery.

 

[Captain_Throwback]

No, you can't restore a backup made with a different recovery.

But it's listed as one of the features of this recovery

TWRP backup and restore support, include full md5 sum support (single and multivolume, compressed and non compressed formats)

That's what I get for not reading the OP

You know that's one of my pet peeves

I've recently been having an issue with both this and twrp. Both recoveries work fine but when I reboot I always have to do a 'battery pull' button combo because my phone freezes on the HTC one screen. Then it boots fine. Any ideas?

That sounds like it has absolutely nothing to do with recovery, honestly.

 

[metalfan78]

Maybe I'm not giving it enough time to boot fully.

There seems to be no option to backup to the external sd card. Options are sdcard or storage/sdcard1 which are both the internal storage.

storage/sdcard1 should be the external sd.

 

[KennyG123]

storage/sdcard1 should be the external sd.

Hmmm...it appears you are correct...thanks Captain. I saw the backup and Blobs folders on internal and figured it sent the backup there...seeing one on the external card now as well...weird is both Windows and Root Explorer show the Blobs folder as having 0 bytes but when I open some of the inner folders there is definitely data in there.

Edit: Let Windows sit on it for a couple of seconds and it started loading the correct amount of 3GB for the folder.
