[RECOVERY] ClockworkMod (use Rom Manager now)

[paganwinter]

ClockworkMod recovery for LG P500.

Avalaible via Rom manager now.

How to flash:
1. Install ROM Manager from market
2. Get root in some way.
3. Flash recovery via ROM Manager

Zip package with amonra recovery attached (if anyone want to back to amonra).

Why ClockworkMod?
+ it is nicer
+ it is clockworkmod
+ format partitions
+ normal support for backup/restore
- don't support for Amend scripts
- don't support Link2SD

Ext partition fs: ext4.

Don't compatible with backups created in AmonRa.

About Amend scripts:
To give you back history, there are currently two ways to create "update.zip" scripts. The first one is "update-script", also known as Amend. It was the first version of the scripting language created by Google, and was used in Android 1.0 and Cupcake (1.5). However, Amend has two serious design flaws:
Function arguments can not span more than 1 word.
The scripting language is compiled into the recovery causing image bloat and inflexibility.

Because of this reason Google REMOVED Amend support in Donut (Android 1.6) and beyond, and instead switched to update-binary and updater-script, which is also known as Edify.
This means that you can't falsh some zips. If you like this recovery ask zip authors to update his packages.

Modders: Please switch to using Edify.

Screenshot is from google because I have no idea how to take screen from framebuffer

Silly doubt.
Why does the attached file in the original post say Amonra?

Amonra

If you read the post carefully, that file is intended for those who want to use Amonra recovery instead of CWM.

does not appear on my zte blade that "E: Bad boot message" and that same message interrupts rom manager when backing up my roms on my p500.

I ported the V20g boot.img and recovery.img to clockwork and got same bug, I updated the recoveryimage using the cm repo and got same bug, so something is causing it.

I hope in a version without the silly "no no no..." sequence that get me crazy and wear out the volume buttons. A big plus can be also the amend scripts compatibility...

The silly no no no option is a way to confirm what you are doing.

help

how can i delete the clockworkmod recovery coz i want to use the normal reacovery....(the black backgroud with blue words)....

 

[orsonbear]

To confirm my choice a single yes or no is enough.

I want some coffee. Are you sure? No no no no no YES...
I like your car. Really? No no no no no no YES...
I like good software. Confirm please. No no no no no no YES... BANG!

Will you marry me? NO!

In the past I liked Amonra for the simple yes/no prompt and amend/edify compatibility. Now I like CWM for the reliability, but I HATE the "no no no no..." sequence!

I think this has been added so that the users don't accidentally select an option. That would be catastrophic in the case of a factory reset. It is useful, just a bit annoying pressing the small volume rocker button.

Every build of my CM7 contain latest CWM recovery. To install it run:

sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh

But WARNING: This is nightly recovery builds. It might be unstable (and seems you lose adb in recovery).
