[Recovery]Clockwork Mod 6.0.1.2

Do you have the mac version of fastboot?

I dont provide it because I dont have a fresh copy to give out, goog never handed out pre compiled version with the sdk.

 

[Gravityrat]

I have r15 for MacOSX. Driving me crazy. Had this same problem when I first rooted my streak. Can't remember what I did to remedy it. Once I figure it out I will let you know.

I could never get my streak to show in fastboot on my Mac. So I use vmware fusion. On windows 7 I was able to flash thru fastboot.

If you're trying to fastboot to an undetected device (that you're sure is connected) use it's device id.

so "fastboot -i 0x413c <rest of the commands>"

I believe the s7 is also 0x413c just like the s5.

Not tested:
Update zip flashing

Work? you can flash .zip with custom ROM without problems?

Thanks in Advanced.

Help with Nand Backup needed.

Just flashed Honeycomb 3.2 with no problems. (Thanks guys!)

Tried to do a nand backup (CWM 5.0) and I get the following error....

Attempting nand backup
E:unknown volume for path [/sdcard]
Can't mount /sdcard

I've searched the forums but have had no luck finding a resolution.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: We're good. Option to backup to internal SDcard worked.

Sorry guys, but while I have rooted and flashed every other Android device I've owned (Nexus One, Viewsonic G-Tab, LG Optimus V, and Motorola Xoom), I can't seem to get past square one with my Streak 7 4G.

It came with HC already installed, but I would like to root (at least). I have downloaded the Fastboot+ADB file, have extracted it on my computer, have gotten the Streak into fastboot mode, but I can not convince Windows 7 (64-bit pro in case that is the issue) to install the drivers, and so no luck doing anything else. Help?

Yeah, I also use 64 bit but Ultimate and at first it was a nightmare. Have you installed the Dell Sync software to make sure you have the correct drivers, because that's your issue, it's a simple one, but in the beginning I pulled my hair out for several days until I got my laptop to play nice with either of my Streaks, the 5 and the 7. I installed the Dell Nero PC Sync software, got the drivers installed, uninstalled the useless software suite and haven't had any problems since. Hope this helps

CWM 5.5.0.4 is out, but I cant build it as it's on the ICS branch. 5.0.2.7 was the last version on the GB branch and hence the last I can sucessfully compile.

The ICS branch changed something up so that when I switch branches it produces many errors, but switching back works fine. 5.5 simply wont compile on the GB branch as it likely uses support files that depend on the ICS branch.

I dont believe it include any changes relevent to the S7, I might be able to get usb mounting working on the next version but it's not directly related to 5.5.

At that time I will also port/attempt to port CWM5.5 to the venue and S10, at least the venue depends on changes included in 5.5.

Rooting the DS7 has been streamlined so well by you guys that I was able to get through the process faster than rooting any of my other devices. Thanks so much!

 

[TheManii]

Currently researching usb mounting in cwm 5.0, attempting to get usb mounting to work on the S5/CWM5.0. If that works out I will release a new version of 5.0.2.7 with usb mounting working and some sd card fixes

Edit: got it working on the s5, it might simply not be possible for 5xx/HC compatable ones as it might not export the flags CWM needs (because it uses MTP mode and does not support USB-MSD anymore)

 

[TheManii]

Managed to get CWM 5.5.0.4 to compile now, will port it in a couple days to the S7.

Unfortunately it still will not contain USB mounting due to the stock kernels not supporting USB-Mass Storage mode. It's a limitation of the kernel I may not be able to get around without a modded kernel

 

[exebreez]

@Op What are the benifits of 5.5?

 

[TheManii]

For the s7, not much really. I'm porting CWM5.5 to all devices and the S7 is just recieving it to be kept up to date.

 

[EwanG]

Even if it is just to keep the 7 up to date, those of us with 7's appreciate the effort!

Any chance you could port the new Touch Based CWR?

 

[TheManii]

What's the source repo for it?

I can attempt to in my free time, but thing is I dont have that much to sit down to do a single big project.

Same reason I havnt had a chance to port CWM 5.5 (though it's giving compile issues).

If anyone is interested in attempting it themselves I can post a copy of the makefiles I used to compile 5.0 if they dont wanna wait however long it takes for me to find time to do so.

But I dont' see it, so he must not be ready to make it open source.

 

[TheManii]

Is it even official CWM or a fork?

I figured it was a fork of it, the touch enabled one I mean

 

[giveen]

No, Koush is making the official touch with his own code.
