Stable Clockwork Mod Recovery for Desire C

[mmmcfc]

Here is the first custom recovery for the HTC Desire C. You need to have adb configured for this to work.

#include 
/*
 * Your warranty is now void.
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
 * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
 */

Connect your phone to your PC using a USB Cable, then open up a command prompt. Type the following command:

adb reboot bootloader

This should have rebooted your device into the bootloader, if it didn't then you may not have the right drivers

Then to flash the recovery type:

fastboot flash recovery [B]recovery-name[/B].img

Bugs
Reboots after 10 minutes

Will upload a fix for mount issues later... Don't know about the keys, could be because it can't mount /system

 

[mmmcfc]

Update is now up, hopefully it fixes the mount issues .. can't test as I don't have device. Please give feedback ..

Installs, and boots into recovery alright, you can move up and down the options using the volume buttons but cannot actually select an option, pressing any of the three buttons on the bottom does nothing as does pressing the power, but great start.

Hope you manage to get hold of one to aid in your development.

Same here

EDIT.
power button now seems to select.
When moving up and down with vol + - it popped up saying "back menu button enabled" and now can select with power button.

Can someone post a Nandroid backup or flashable zip of the North American version of the phones OS. I deleted a few too many apks and there are no roms yet to flash to fix the issues ive created.

Ahhh yes.. if you move up or down using the volume buttons around 8 to 10 times it'll come up with the notice "back menu button enabled" at the bottom of the screen and you can then use the power to select.

Not quite what you were after, but I've just tried this rom that might fix things for you, it is chinese but you can select english as a language on install, it's pre-rooted and streamlined and I would say it is feeling a touch smoother moving through the screens and selecting stuff don't seem as laggy as when I first had the phone, might be worth a try.

Excellent stuff mmmcfc, Thanks for all your hard work with the Desire C so far.

 

[brnt]

Awesome work, really glad to have you working on the device. Thank you a lot! I'm looking forward to future development for this phone. :good:

Cudos

Cudos to the developer. Just bought one and was dissapointed to see CMR not readily available. Cant help much as I am ultra noob when it comes to android and this is my main professional set so I wont/cant tamper with it to death or beta test (cant afford a whipeout atm), yet if you still need a file or something (and provide thorough instructions as to how-to), buzz. Hope you nail it soon.
