Hello everyone :D

Warning
Only install this recovery only if you have to or want to use it, I'm not responsible for bricked phones if you try to install it on a different device or by using an obscure method.
(Even if bricking a SGS4 device is more complicated than installing a recovery ^^)

So, this is my very first build for CWM. It is 100% CyanogenMod sources without any changes except those which make it compatible with this phone (config, partitions, codename, ...)


Sources
The CM configuration files can be downloaded from my github :
https://github.com/dridri/android_device_samsung_ks01lte


Known Bugs
Until now I have not had any bugs with this recovery, but feel free to report any bugs or improvements that can be done.
- no external sdcard

Download
I provide you the three file types :

Is this recovery good for backing up android 4.3?I know that with Philz Recovery due the fact that i didn`t select the option (Proces SE content) whed i restored the backup the IMEI/Baseband of the phone was lost.That happened to me when i was using a I9505.Now i`m on I9506 and i really need to backup my ROM.So....for short...is it safe to backup android 4.3 and restore it later without any problems,using this recovery?Thank you for your hard work.

recovery.img it should work.I don't know if the flashable zip will work because before flashing it will read your build.prop and check for the product name wich is different.Take a flashable zip made for your model and replace the image inside it and try.

You can backup android 4.3 with this recovery but you cannot restore with it because it does not "process selinux context"
so....if you try to restore 4.3 with it you will end in a bootloop and no efs partiton!

Hey!

Then we cant use it if its not recognise exsd card. I installed it, backed up but I CANT recover from backup, because after restarting and looking for backup files from device or from sd, I CANT see them. Because its not useful. Just for wiping system and cache we can do it from STOCK RECOVERY.

Peace for all!!!
:cool:

Hi,
ty for the recovery, but after flash with odin (and pass) when i try to initialize the recovery, it start the Android recovery with the next messages in the bottom of the screen:

E:missing bitmap icon_att_fota_installing
(Code -1)
E:missing bitmap icon_att_fota_updating
(Code -1)
E:missing bitmap icon_att_fota_complete
(Code -1)
E:missing bitmap icon_att_fota_error
(Code -1)

# MANUAL MODE #
-- Appling Multi-CSC...
Applied the CSC-code : ATL
Successfully applied multi-CSC.

Any solution?

PD: The device is not bricked, but the CWM Recovery doesn't start :(
(The device is the i9506)

Ty!
