Very exciting. Tester right here if and when needed. I assume this is being developed for our streaks running ics ?

That is correct.
As soon as I get it to mount one of the storages (internal or external) than it will be out for testing.

Reverting some settings result in a successful backup to internal storage, need to work on getting both internal and external to work.

 

[giveen]

Done. Link and instructions on how to install in OP

Just fastbooted it! Very nice work.

Backup worked but didn't try to restore. Minor cosmetic issue on mount screen, check mark circle for "internal sd" covers the last two characters of the "external sd" text or "sd".

Yeah, those things are probably from the fact the 800x480 are from a Gtab, I might try to clean that up later.

Doing a restore from internal and external storage now to see if it works.

@giveen...

So when you say adb shell you meant I have access to the file system once mounted but not in an USB mass storage way? I have to use adb push, pull commands?

I did "Mount USB" from inside the TWRP
It showed up in my Device Manager as "Ventana", installed ADB driver for Dell Streak 7

From command line I ran "adb shell", so I am assuming "adb push/pull" will work as well right now.


Also, the cosmetic issue of "mount internal / external " will be fixed hopefully tomorrow. I've moved the button over 200px and now just need to move the text.

Giveen,

Thanks for the recovery.img. Did a backup and it appeared to work fine. Haven't done a restore yet.
For those who are as backwards as I am, this might help getting you into TWRP menu.

Power off your Streak

1) press and hold Vol + and power buttons until you get a menu
2) When the menu comes up, select option 2 (Software upgrade via update package on SD card)

That will take you into the cool TWRP menu.

Again, thanks Giveen for all of your hard work.

awesome!

This is the most groundbreaking development for our streaks since the ICSbeta builds.


Giveen, you should feel amazing about the progress you are making. Am I wrong to assume you used the TWRP porting guide to create this recovery? I'm just curious to know your resources so I can look into having my windows pc recognize the streak7 similar to the way it does when powered on (mtd?) ADB is fine and all, it would just be perfect to be able to drag n drop through Windows... I was able to do that on my HTC Evo using twrp.

I have begun to search for generic ics flashable zip mods to test out

Yes, I used this guide
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/23903-how-to-compile-twrp-from-source/

And talked it over with one of the main dev's Dees_Troy

I did talk to him about MTP, but he said he wasn't sure yet about how to implement it.

Can I assume that the restore worked?

Yes.

Does this mean that my device is read only?

No that just means youre Streak isn't being recognized as a fastboot device I think

I replied to the OP on twitter, but if you look really carefully at the command line picture he posted, you shall see the problem.

I've always used: "fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img" which works.
