recovery-CW3028-OP-thunderc_002.zip

Port to Optimus V

This version is using a beta kernel I am working on. (driver updates from new Optimus-S source, NOOP set default)

Backup and restore tested.

Camera button == Action

In an ADB shell:
> mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
> cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image
> chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
> mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak
> mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
> flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
> exit
reboot into recovery (I use QuickBoot, but "adb reboot" works fine as well)

Enjoy!

Cant say 100% as I only used the recovery-thunderc-v-1.2.0-GNM.img recovery (Amon_RA based) once since I've had the OptV.

This is based on CWM source and the stock recovery kernel (for now)
which allows advanced restores etc.

The only other Recovery I see is CWMA which looks like a Xionia kernel and a Amon_Ra/ClockWorkMod hybrid recovery. I know nothing about that recovery, so be sure to try it out and see which you like best.

I've tried xionia I like it to a point that almost all roms will only work with it. I'm currently using 3.0.2.8 from rom repo for the v and like it better. Just wish everyone would use one recovery to develop their roms with.

I'm sorry, but I am having some trouble using the ADB. Where does the .zip file need to be when I type in all of these commands?

Whenever I try to type in the first command (mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system) in the ADB shell it says Operation not permitted. Anyone know how to get around it?

 

[vegetajin8]

When in adb type su then the command see if that works.

Why not just add terminal directions? much simpler
$ su
# cat /proc/mtd

identify recovery -mines mtd2 - & backup...

# cat /dev/mtd/mtd2 > /sdcard/recovery.img

place the recovery to be flashed on sdcard root (example.img)

# flash_image recovery /sdcard/example.img

Depending on how new the OV is.

The newer OVs have a different screen and that recovery is not compatible
