I flashed clockworkmod 3.0.2.4 and for some reason it doesn't back up my sd-ext partition. It says no sd-ext found and skips it. I'm using FUSIONideos v1.9.6b1 ROM.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Smtih:
I had this problem too. Possibly a problem if your using EXT4?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] marcnvidic:
Your sd-ext needs to be labeled "sd-ext". If you partitioned with ClockworkMod that should been set.

Reason why? Its because sd-ext can be either be (ext?) ext2, ext3 or ext4.

For sd-ext to be mounted, you have to specify a filesystem. Hard decision to make - it'd be unfair if only ext3 was allowed. (ext2 & ext4 users would lose out)

Another option is to have it auto detect the filesystem and mount. Problem is, you may have partitioned your sdcard into two (with no intention of having sd-ext) but since its set to auto detect, it will treat any second partition (ext, fat, or whatever) as sd-ext. Not a good move.

Or you can set it to mount by partition label. It will only mount the partition labeled "sd-ext", avoiding conflicts with different ext versions. Thats what its currently set on.

HINT: Label it with the e2label command on linux.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
It is labelled correctly. I used it with clockworkmod by udk with no issues so I assumed it should work with this version as well. Anyway, I'll try what you've suggested. Thanx for the help.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
Tried again, even repartitioned it with this clockworkmod (3.0.2.4) but it still gives me the same errors. Can't format sd-ext from the recovery or restore a backup to it. Its not being recognized at all. Really doesn't make sense especially considering that i used the recovery to partition the sd card.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] marcnvidic:
Will look into it, should be fixed by next release (ROM Manager)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
Thanx a lot man. Tried for hours yesterday and nothing I did worked. I formatted, repartitioned and relabelled it with ubuntu, windows amd two other recoveries. Anyway, tried cm6. Its totally awesome! Blazing fast! Great work. One question though, where are most of the system apps stored? I have a lot more free internal memory with it than other roms (about 155mb free). Or was the rest just bloatware?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] marcnvidic:
System apps have been streamlined for the U8150 - you can say they're optimized, thus take up less space.

The CM6 port is compiled from source, while other ROMs just reuse files from stock. They are in reality all similar. So they usually take up the same space.

All system apps are found in '/system/apps'
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Trekker56:
I installed ROM Mnager, and flashed the clockwork recovery. Rom Manager gave the msg "Clockwork recovery has been successfully flashed".

But now when I try to boot into recovery, the phone gets stuck on boot logo. Ihave to pull the battery out to restart.

Any ideas what I should do?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Trekker56:
Help plz, I really want to try CM6 which exclusivley needs clockworkmod to flash :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
Try flashing a different recovery then reflash cwm.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] maury1234:
Reflash clockwork again
[Miscellaneous Android Development] thangphysk48:
I got problem. In recovery mode, I cannot mount SD card to copy rom/backup from computer. Maybe it's bug/error in recovery image. I'm using Huawei u8150
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Trekker56:
I have tried to install Clockworkmod numerous times. I am using the latest version of Rom Manager (4.0.0.5), I install and get the message "Clockworkmod has been successfully flashed" and then when I reboot into recovery, the phone gets stuck on boot logo (not the boot animation, but the boot logo).

What could I do?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
Which recovery are you trying to flash?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Trekker56:
I am trying to flash Clockworkmod Recovery via Rom Manager.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
Are you selecting the correct phone model?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Trekker56:
Yes I am.

What is happening is that instead of going into recovery, the phone is going into bootlaoder. I have tried to go to recovery via Rom Manager, and also via pressing the green button and vol up + power on, but the phone is going to bootloader.

:(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
That's odd. You could try install another recovery like ultrajack the old way. Then retry rom manager.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Trekker56:
I already did. Ultrajack flashes and works. But when I flash Clockworkmod, the phone doesn't go into recovery, instead goes into bootloader.

I really want to try CM6.

Any one knows what could be the cause of this?

Is there anyway to flash Clockworkmod via PC like Ultrajack?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Trekker56:
I have finally solved the problem.

The first time I tried to install the Clockworkmod, there was a hic up in my wifi and I guess it corrupted the recovery. When the next time I tried to install it, Rom Manager isnstalled the same corrupted version from the cache. I deleted the cache via settings in Rom Manager, and once again installed the Clockworkmod. This time it downloaded a fresh copy and flashed it successfuly.

Hope this will be helpful to others with the same problem.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Pasquale91fg:
Trakker ho il tuo stesso e identico problema!!!!!! mi dici come lo hai risolto per favore?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bertans:
Next time in english

... :p

Delete, from "ClockworkMod" directory form your SD card, everything except the backup folder... ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Slyon92:
Last Clockworkmod, on the ideos of my gf won't work at all! The phone reboot and get stuck on ideos logo. I've tried to download, and re-download after a cache clean up of Clockwork and nothing!

So, i've tried with that one, and everithing goes well!

multiupload.com/8I69E0PB9M

1. Shutdown the phone

2. Turn on with red button + volume down pressed, until it stuck on the ideos logo

3. Now plug it into computer, and execute "install-recovery-*" for your operating system

4. Once completed, it should reboot and now you have a working recovery!

Boot it up with the green button + volume up key pressed!

Enjoy!:P

In italiano:

L'ultima clockwork non funziona nemmeno sul telefono della mia ragazza! Neanche cancellando la cache e tutto il resto!..

Scarica questa:

multiupload.com/8I69E0PB9M

1. Spegni il telelefono

2. Accendilo tenendo premuto il tasto rosso + volume basso fino a che non si blocca sul logo della ideos

3. Collega il telefono al computer, ed avvia il file "install-recovery-*" a seconda del tuo sistema operativo! (nel mio caso: install-recovery-windows.bat).. ti comparirà una schermata dos per qualche secondo, e poi si riavvierà da solo il telefono

4. Spegnilo e riaccendilo tenendo premuti il tasto verde e il volume su, ed entrerai magicamente in recovery!!:)

Buona fortuna!

[Miscellaneous Android Development] kevinching:
Great work!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] IamMason:
I'm fairly new to this so please bear with me.

I'm using ROM Manager v.4.0.0.8 and trying to flash the Clockworkmod recovery from there but when the phone model menu comes up I'm not seeing Ideos U8150 on there. Is there a different model I should go with or am I going to need to do this another way?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xenonism:
Had the same problem, your fix worked just fine. Maybe there should be some integrity checks on the downloaded files.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xenonism:
I just used the same version and the U8150 is definitely there. It's called "Huawei U8150 Ideos" and it's in the first half of the list, maybe 30% down.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] IamMason:
That's weird. I checked and rechecked it and didn't see it. Regardless, I got it installed another way and am now enjoying this awesome rom.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] veer1238:
Iam getting cant find cust partition! So i wont do a nandroid backup as it deosnt generate md5 sum!! I dont know why its happening.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
what rom are you trying to backup?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] veer1238:
It happens with all the roms...cynoman.fusionideos etc
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
Try using the older cwm by udk.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] spideyngo:
Just a heads up everyone. I have a T-Mobile Comet Prepaid from the US.

Here is my experience.

With the following T-Mobile ROM installed with Z4root and clockworkMOd installed, Huawei Ideos U8150 recovery install is NOT listed on my device, only Huawai Pulse Mini (flashed to this from US stock T-Mobile)

U8150V100R001C85B823SP01-T-MO.zip

Firmware listing http://webftp.myppc.it/index.php?dir=Ideos/ROM/

When I flashed the Kenya firmware, installed Z4root, install ClockworkMod, then Huawei Ideos U8150 recovery install IS listed.

U8150 V100R001C18B842(Kenya Safaricom).zip

firmware listing http://webftp.myppc.it/index.php?dir=Ideos/ROM/

All in all, the Kenya firmware is the way to go anyway with multitouch support in browser and google maps. Also, it's a much cleaner and easier clockworkmod recovery install.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Trekker56:
I am unable to create partition via clckworkmod. I have the latest installed via rom manager. I create a partition via clockworkmod, the allocated space disappears, but the ext partition is not there. I have a kingston class 4 card, and the same card works flawlessly with partition created with ultrajack recovery.

I want to keep cyanogenmod as my rom, but witout ext support, am unable to move aps, and am running out of space.

Any ideas what i should do?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] marcnvidic:
A recovery with your issues fixed will be available soon
[Miscellaneous Android Development] veer1238:
That would be cool!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Trekker56:
Can't wait! Am dieing to use CM6 and CM7, which only install with Clockworkmod :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] grifovunque:
when i try to backup my cm7 i receive error with /cust...

"it's not possible to mount /datadata"

how can i solve?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
It has problems backing up roms that don't use a cust partition. You need to switch to another recovery to make a backup.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] omernaeem17:
marc can how tell me how to install cm7 i hav tried from all methods nt workings

from clockwordmod

and nt from rom manager

it is not show recovery mode nw 1st stuck to ideos screen then it reboot simply in simple regulare mode
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nba1341:
How do I install this within rom manager I don't see the model u8150 listed...

EDIT: Figured out why thanks to spideyngo's post
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nba1341:
How do you flash the Kenya firmware?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
To flash that firmware follow this guide.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nba1341:
Thank you so much to spideyngo and wachw! Got the Kenya firmware installed now ready to install the correct clockworkmod and then on to gingerman :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nba1341:
When I try to backup current rom or boot manually to recovery I get stuck on ideos screen. Any ideas? Clockworkmod from rom finder for ideos u8150 installed...

Edit: cleared download cache and reflashed clockworkmod and it works. Thanks for the suggestion person on page 4/5
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xaueious:
ran into the cust issue with this recovery as well.

did not experience this issue with udx

Was on the 2.2 HK SmartTone ROM from stock before flashing other stuff
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gilbertchege:
My ideos u8150 is not starting..

i have a huawei ideos u8150. i formatted the small files while in recovery mode and when i rebooted the phone it does not start up.. as in it only shows the initialization screen (the android logo) and doesnt do anything else... it wont power off either unless i remove the battery.. i have tried power+volume up+call buttons n still nothing.. and also power+volume down+end button... please help
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
What files did you format exactly?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gilbertchege:
..i formatted all the files that are visible when you are in clockwork recovery mode... i dont remember the file/folder names... but there was one called boot etc... i wanted to install a new mod afresh but i guess i did it the wrong way..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wachw:
You formatted boot! And then left recovery without installing a new rom?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gilbertchege:
uuuummm... yeah, thats more like it :O ..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] f1ng3r:
Hmmm...maybe the only choice is to flash a new recovery via adb. But you have to install all the SDK stuff etc.. on the Pc.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gilbertchege:
hey thanks alot.. i did't know how to go about it but my friend did it for me and it's now ok.. thanks alot :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] p22446633:
There is no option for U8150 on ROM Manager on my U8150

but i can see U8220...

is there no Recovery Package for download?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gilbertchege:
there is... i use u8150 and when i want to flash clockwork recovery mode i can find the huawei ideos u8150 in the list...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pwoita:
After Rom Manager is installed and you click Download Rom, a dialogue box comes up saying

"You must have ClockworkMod Recovery installed before continuing! Install the recovery through Rom Manager first."

with a button to install.

When that button is pressed, you get a confirm phone model dialogue with a list of phones and the U8150 is not there.

That is with Rom Manager 4.4.0.7 (just got it from the market)

How do I get ClockworkMod Recovery installed?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gilbertchege:
uuumm sorry it has been a while since i logged in my account, ok, try flashing clockwork recovery.. it is in the options when u open rom manager.. if u need more help, contact me on gilbertchege@yahoo.com
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Anilikos:
This was reeeeealy helpfull thanks!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] s14sh3r:
It's not listed on mine, either. It may be because mine is a T-Mobile Comet. I saw in an earlier post about flashing Kenya firmware, but all the links to the firmware are down.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] s14sh3r:
Bump for help. All the official firmware links from Huawei have been taken down and Rom Manager does not list my device so I can flash clockworkmod recovery. I'd really like to try cyanogenmod but I can't without flashing clockworkmod recovery. Help anyone?

Thanks

[Miscellaneous Android Development] stncldtex:
need some help

My wife has a u8150 and I am trying to get CWM on it so I can load a custom ROM. Here is my problem 3.0.2.4 is the correct version according to CWM web site but I cant install it via rom manager its not listed . Any suggestions-:confused:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Kernel ranger:
I downloaded Rom manager 4.4.0.7 and flashed the latest clockworkmod recovery 3.2.0.4 on my u8150-D and all my backup roms never complete successfully,I even lost my stock rom backup. In all of them I get "E: cant find "cust" partition to mount /datadata."

At some point someone suggested I flash to an older clockworkmod recovery.I used rom manger to do everything for me . My question is which one and how?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] GJSmith3rd:
Try to locate and install RM 5.0.2.7 for U8150 from Ideos Dev Team on XDA. RM will report older version but a boot into recovery will reveal correct version. You will have to install it via Fastboot or other ADB method which requires that ADB is functional on your PC and device first.

You can find it in post one of CM9 alpha topic.

I can get fastboot from "http://dottech .org /tipsntricks /21534/how-to-install-adb-and-fastboot-on-your-windows-computer-for-use-with-your-android-phone/"

I downloaded clockworkmod_5.0.2.7_u8150.img last year coz I really wanted to try out CynogenMod 7.2 since I ran into some issues with FusionIdeos 2.7.10 but run into "flash_image command not found" by terminal. Downloaded Root explorer, renamed the img to recovery.img moved it with R/W mode to /system/bin, enabled rw on the file img for all thats user, other, group, literally all of them, then returned to R/O, then ran flash_image recovery /system/bin/recovery.img but still the command wasnt recognized. Brought back the image to the root SDcard. Since I was in Clockworkmod 3.0.2.4, I tried to go into bootloader mode but failed since all it did was just load a blue 2 at the bottom right corner of the phone. So I couldnt type (flash_boot ......) Also tried where one creates folders in the clockworkmod folder in the sdcard then moved the image there but ROM manager failed to see anything by that folder. So with all those tries I gave up and just flashed CynogenMod 7.2 with Clockworkmod 3.0.2.4,intrestingly it works perfectly but non of my backups I ever made by this Clockworkmod 3.0.2.4 restore or backup successfully. It flashes successfully though. I can switch to any ROM at will with it. but backup/restore is a disaster.

I would really appreciate clear instructions on how to use Fastboot to flash clockworkmod_5.0.2.7_u8150.img
[Miscellaneous Android Development] GJSmith3rd:
Take a look at post two of this topic for example instructions on how to flash CWM 5. Keep in mind that you will be using the file for the u8150 instead. You might be using incorrect syntax.

adb shell inand_flash_image recovery recovery.cpio.img

Where recovery.cpio.img is the name of your CWM img file. Be sure you have RW access.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1394308

Fastboot method from Bootloader mode

fastboot recovery recovery.img

or

fastboot_windows recovery recovery.img

~~ VM Micro Cruz PT701/T105 Tapatalk ~~
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Kernel ranger:
Say for instance I go with this assuming that I was using the wrong commands, where is the img? SDcard root? or bin folder?

Why doesnt your command have folder indication denoted by (/)?

I would like to try this before I go to the more brain wrenching methods
[Miscellaneous Android Development] GJSmith3rd:
That's why you use 'ADB shell' instead of actually entering the device shell command prompt.

If you go the Fastboot / Bootloader method you can have the recovery img file in the same PC folder as the fastboot commands for your OS platform. Then you don't have to point to another location on the PC with a detailed path.

So just move the img file to the same folder as fastboot. Change directory to where the files are located and execute fastboot. You may want to rename your old recovery.img or recovery.cpio.img located in /system on the device which is automatically flashed to recovery partition on each boot or else it will wipe out CWM on boot.

Right now it will be a month and a half before I have access to a pc, I would really like to try the correct terminal commands since "flash_image recovery" isnt and I have just come from installing a custom dronix Mms.apk into my fusionideos system and has worked perfectly using terminal, no hiccups no clashes.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] Kernel ranger:
This is to confirm that there is a genuine issue with ClockworkMod 3.0.2.4 by marcnvidic because clockworkmod 3.0.1.9 by udk backsup and restores all roms appropriately so there is no need to exclaim "for the love of God" its just a small anomaly which is fixable by you or by him (marcnvidic)

sorry i didn't got recovery mod even i hadn't removed battery and followed your instructions,please suggest any thnq
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Kernel ranger:
Your recovery image could have been damaged.

Go to your rom manager once again after choosing a period( day or night ) when you know there won't be any internet interruptions.

Enable your data (3G or EDGE) whichever.

Click on flash clockworkrecovery in the menu (a progression bar should appear giving the status of your recovery image download)

After its done, scroll down and look for reboot into recovery mode and click on it,it should take you to recovery mode.

Same here. And I'm wary of choosing a 'close enough' model to try since I've read that it can cause some problems that I wouldn't even know how to start fixing.
