[RECOVERY - UNTESTED] ClockworkMod Touch for the occam (LG Nexus 4)

[jellybellys]

I just decided to cook up some clockworkmod recovery for the nexus 4. Build it using the stock kernel that came in the JOP40C factory image.

Here's the linky:

Also, I don't have my nexus 4 yet to test on, so if you are lucky enough to have yours already, flash at your own risk. I would reccomend using "fastboot boot recovery.img" first to test. And if you screw up anyhow, here's the stock recovery: (I didn't make this one)

adb reboot recovery

Thanks. Is this CWM 6.0.1.5?

I would reccomend using "fastboot boot recovery.img"

Shouldn't it be "fastboot flash boot recovery.img" to send recovery to the phone?

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img to send recovery to the phone.

He's recommending using that command to just run the image first without flashing it to see if it works right..

Yeah, but that was to test boot to it, not flash it.

fastboot boot recovery.img to test it, fastboot flash recovery recovery.img to install it.

I usually package recovery.img's as boot.imgs for testing that way you just reboot recovery to recovery - get it? Makes testing simple for the inevitable broken button mapping bad lun path and derpdy derps that are bound to happen

Anyone tested this yet?

No that would flash the recovery image to the boot partition

Test is fine but flashing is not working...

Try mounting /system through the menu. See if that errors out.

Also, did you try making a nandroid and restoring? I'd do data only for starters, just to be safe.

 

[smirkis]

no offense, but why does everyone wanna be the first every time a device comes out. wait til you get it, test it, then release it.. but thanks anyway

 

[Egooktamuck]

I think the problem is, that this Version is based on JB 4.1.2!

Now i wait until Koushik is finished with his work and CWM is ready for 4.2
