[RELEASE] TWRP 2.1.1 for Motorola Defy [2012-04-23]

[guidosl]

i'm flash the zip twice and the bootMenu erro when I enter to recovery:

in /system/bootmenu/script/recovery_stable.sh

(result: No such file or directory)

and the OS not boot anymore!!! motorola logo permanent...

Can someone tell me where exactly in GooManager I can find this. Can't find in recoveries or recovery. I would expect that's where it should be. Is it listed under a different name? Would like to try this.

Here it is in Goomanager:

I wonder if this will be added to cm7 nightlies... cause with each update the cwmr comes back...

no, cm is a whole system... but this new recovery could be included some day, now its fully opensource...

actually required libs are built from an old aosp gingerbread, and use an old patched busybox for tar/gz archives... that should be fixed before it can be in cm repo...

hey, do you know how to make fonts by myself since the Chinese characters are not supported yet?
Thanks

version updated... wonder what the changes are?

EDIT: V2.1.1 looks super slick... very ICSy Thanks Epsylon3!

I am using MB526 running white rabbit 1.5. When I try to install via goomanager app it says "No recoveries were found for this device". Is there no support for defy+ or my specific ROM which is CM7 based anyway

 

[Epsylon3]

yep, i need to see this problem with goo manager guy...

its also compatible with kobe... the motorola bravo MB520

 

[shrek8421]

Thanks. Will wait for your update.
Also keep up the great work you are doing here and with CM9. I am very grateful.

Compressed Backups on 2.1.1

There's something a little odd going on with the backups.

I checked the "compress backup" box and performed a full backup, it was done in a few seconds... too fast.

Then I unchecked the "compress backup" box and it took the correct time to make the backup, but it appeared to be making two of each backups.

When I looked at the files created with a file manager, there were indeed 2 backup folders, but the files in the first one (compressed) were created after the 2nd one. The folder size of the compressed backup is marginally smaller as only the system file was compressed.

So, it appears as if TWRP gave the "success" indication a bit prematurely while doing the first compressed backup.

EDIT1: I checked out the new baseband selector in CM7 then came back to CM9, restoring the uncompressed backup, worked perfectly.

EDIT2: Performed another compressed backup, took much longer this time (233 sec for system) and all 7 files were created properly and the sizes were significantly reduced.

Conclusion: the first dodgy compressed backup was a glitch - not easily repeatable.

what r u supposed 2 mean by not easy repeat ????

It doesn't happen repeatedly, in other words, sometimes it glitches, sometimes its OK. As long as it takes a while, the backup will be OK. A full compressed backup took 10 minutes.

Is it the android with the exclamation mark? Then press both volume buttons (if you are on Gingerbread) or the power button (if you are on Froyo) for the menu to appear, then do a data wipe and cache wipe and reboot, that should fix it

 

[trixhammerbord]

it is'nt the android logo with exclamation, its the "android" logo itself, the original boot logo after the red"M" ... Im stuck with it

Anyway i did'nt try your steps yet... Gonna try it after work

Any other way?

Hop over the the general thread and check the beginners guides, your stuck in a boot loop

Press and hold volume - when you turn the phone on and keep it held, you will see an android with an exclaimtion mark in a triangle the let go of volume -

Now press volume down and you will get the menu, navigate to factory reset and select with power button, once its done reboot and it will take time but it will boot

teamwork makes the dream work

 

[trixhammerbord]

thanks mates it works!

Same here on CM7.2 RC. I proceeded to install it manually, GooManager doesn't work as intended.
