Sweet! Thanks for this. I'm going to unlock my shield next week, and I'm going to be making several tutorial videos on it.

I just got 3 years of SquareTrade warranty, with Accidental Drop Protection. So if I root it and I break it, I can still get it replaced.

I'm curious... Never seen this recovery before. What does it offer that CWM doesn't? Or is it just a different recovery?

OUDHS Recovery is based on CWMR sources and the full source code can be found here. It has some mortification for user interface and also it has a unique way of handling it's touch driven interface that's designed to make it compatible across a wide range of devices.

Ok, cool. Just trying to decide if I should switch from my current CWM recovery over to this. Doesn't sounds like there's much of a difference.

I haven't fully analyzed the OUDHS source code for all the changes that were made (It's on my to do list :good the main difference between your CWMR (Nice job on that by the way) and this is the touch interface that's really the main difference between them.

None of the touch is working on my device. And navigation is a real pain with only one of the two buttons working (home acts as up). Have you tested this at all?

For the touch issue I think I have ran into the same issue you were having with getting touch working on TWRP for the Shield. The unit I was going to test this on (Which is actually my friends who is still on vacation) I don't unfortunately have access to currently.

Issues found while using it:
No touch support
No controller navigation
Screen is rotated 90 degrees

I didn't try anything else, since I'm not really willing to risk my device to test backup/restore.

Thanks for letting me know about these issues I will see what I can do about these and hopefully issue more test builds shortly :good:.

Neither the touch nor the D-Pad on the controller is functional.
Only 2 buttons, Home to scroll up & Shield button : functioning as OK.
The said gestures are not working.

As Agraben said.

Always glad to have multiple people confirm what is and isn't working I intend to get more test builds out as soon as I can .

 

[chaind]

Will be glad to help you with the testing!...

Install from SD didn't work.. I did not have SD card in the shield but it did not let me access internal memory of shield either.

This is meant for the Nvidia Shield only. However if you can provide me with your devices stock recovery.img or a link to where I can find it I can try and compile recovery for your device.

Thanks for the quick response I will try to find the recovery ima before the day ends... Thanks for taking the time to help... I should be able to find the recov.IMG... I have the Evga note do you think the recovery.IMG for the superfly one tegra note would suffice??

 

[Ksehwail]

Sorry for the noob question but is there a way to pull the recovery.IMG from my device?? Thanks in advance

Is the superfly one just a re-branded regular Tegra Note 7? What you can do is fastboot boot (NOT FLASH) the superfly image to see if it works. I saw your other question thread if you can get root access on your Evga Tegra Note 7 then you can pull it's recovery.img.

Sorry for the noob question but is there a way to pull the recovery.IMG from my device?? Thanks in advance

Yes there is a way to pull your devices recovery.img, but it requires root access (Make sure you have root access on your device first. First reboot your device into recovery mode and wipe your devices cache then reboot the device into the Android OS. Then from terminal emulator or ADB shell please run the following command and upload the result of the following command:

su
cat /cache/recovery/log

This will allow me to determine which partition on your device is the recovery partition that you need to dump. As always if you have any questions let me know I'll be happy to help you out .
