CWM internal SD to external SD

Hello everyone,

I am new to g2x. I have already rooted and flashed the clockworkMod which was all successful. However, flashed the CWM to internal SD. If i want to get it to external SD, how do i do that? I will be flashing the eaglesblood ROM but might flash CM7 after! :)

Thanks for all the effort put into this. I appreciate it! :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] reisaru:
You didn't flash it to the internal SD, you flashed it to the recovery partition, which is where recovery always goes. That's why it's called the recovery partition.

What you did was flash CWM with support for the internal eMMC memory (rather than the external SD card slot) at /sdcard. How to get CWM to use the external SD card slot instead is self explanatory once you have this flasher application up in front of you, so I won't bother going into it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gsallen97:
Red text sfter I flash CWM

I have flashed step by step and everytime the results are the same. At the end when I am to boot into recovery after flashing I dont get the little green android symbol and CWM does pop up but in all red txt and as soon as I let go of the power button it disappears? I have formatted my external sd card as that was the fix for another member.....any help would be greatly appreciated!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] reisaru:
Pressing the power button, in some circumstances, can turn the menu on and off. You're still in Recovery. Hit the power button again and it should come back. You may see that it says "Back button disabled". I had that happen a couple times, and then someone here pointed out that, while in CWM recovery, pressing vol-down and vol-up at the same time turns this mode on and off. Once the back button has been "reenabled", you should be able to use the recovery menu as normal, and power moves back to "Select" rather than "menu on/off".

So make sure to turn the menu back on before re-enabling the back button. CWM having red text is normal for this flash utility.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gsallen97:
Tried as directed powered off held down volume and power button CWM shows up. Now if keep the power button held I can scroll up and down but as soon as I release the power CWM is gone?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] halybobo:
Please help me, i waiting a reply :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TGA_Gunnman:
what is the make and exact model of your phone. and who is your carrier
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gsallen97:
CWM disappears as I release power button

does anyone have a clue as to why CWM disappears after I release the power button when I boot into recovery? I have done this over and over with the same results. please help.

Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] reisaru:
No, what I'd said to do was press vol-up and vol-down at the same time while in recovery, which should re-enable your power button as select rather than menu on/off. Did you try that?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
easy fix. When you see the Android Splash Screen. LET GO OF THE BUTTONS. Dont keep Power held. Not sure who or where you saw those instructions.

Op, are you updating to the newest cwm?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Juca:
Noob Doubt..

I bought my G2x from one friend that was used for 3 weeks,,,How I know if I have fake recovery or right recovery???

Thanks for all..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
shut off the phone (make sure it's not plugged in). Then hold down the volume down + the power button. Keep holding it down after the LG screen. It should then boot into recovery. If not, you probably have the fake.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] risho:
I recently "fakeflashed" my G2x and was playing with the install of an OC kernel from morfic and it froze on me while booting I saw the new boot animatons it installed saying "PREPARE" and showed a globe with green lightening, my question is why was I still allowed to boot into recovery by holding the power button and volume down button

Has ClockworkMod been updated to allow this? since the NVFLASH was recommended months ago...?

I just want to know if I am in any danger or if im safe with current ROM install of CM7/Nightly 51
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jerrycycle:
You can do it the same you did it on the 19 by swapping the files in the appropriate folders until it is updated.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] reisaru:
Hold vol-down while turning on the phone. If you can use recovery to flash a ROM, you have a good recovery.

Best way to make sure, though, is just to nvflash a recovery yourself.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Juca:
Thanks.

I flashed cm7...but I have one big problem...G2x doesn't permit me to make calls...shows my operator's name with NO SERVICE...I restored my previous default t-mobile rom with android 2.3.3 and service returned OK...

What I making wrong???

Files To Switch

Can someone let me know which files to switch in Gunman's Nvidia Flasher to be able to flash 4.0.0.2 I tried searching thru the forums with no luck any help would be appreciated
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
Switch out the .img files with the new ones. Then either edit the .cmd files to reflect the new file names or just rename the new .img's with the old file names. The buttons of course will not reflect the change, however.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JeffR714:
Thanks Man I appreciate the help
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tgerbracht:

Which files to switch

I've seen it posted serveral times and I'm interested to in which files you switch and which to rename to allow Chris's NV flash to flash 4.0.0.2 Recovery Image onto my G2x. I know is a noob question but I'm lost, I've gone through all that threads and can't find the upgraded version if there is one; just one person who knows how to change the files around. Not into Linux but I'm trying to learn. For know however I could use some help. Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jerrycycle:
Inside the NV Flasher folder you will see a file named something like this

CWM-3101-ExternalSD-EXT4.img or CWM-3101-InternalSD-EXT4.img

Choose the location for recovery of your chose internal or external file. Replace the file with the one for the 4.0.X.X. Just rename the current file with the old file name and follow the same installation process.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] halybobo:

whats the procedure to update clock work on internal or external ?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TGA_Gunnman:
ClockworkMod Version 4.0.0.2 is now apart of One-Click-App. I had to do a quick piecemeal on my laptop since i am out of town looking for a house, buying a house and moving. Don't worry about the file versions in the dir. It is 4.0.0.2, I tested it.

Feel free to flash right on top of existing versions.

Sry for the delay.

Have fun!

Hi, im trying to install recovery on my friends phone with this tool.

I downloaded it. did the first steps and now the phone isnt turning back on.

here are my steps:

took out battery.

hold volume up and down

plug in USB

the driver couldn't be recognized, idk why.

but now when i put the battery back in, the phone wont turn on!

please help!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Enraged21:
alright, so i got it to turn in back on. but im still stuck at the part with the device manager. cant seen to know where that is.

after i hold both volume keys and plug the USB in, harderware found pops up.

but it still doesn't recognize it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] reisaru:
Device Manager: A Windows application used to view the devices currently in use by your computer. On Vista and 7, this is at Start : Control Panel : Device Manager. For XP (I don't know if the driver is compatible with XP), it's Start : right-click on "Computer" : Properties : Advanced : Hardware tab : Device Manager. Point the unknown ADX device to the ADX drivers that you downloaded in one of the earlier steps.

Seriously, the One-Click post has step-by-step instructions that work flawlessly if you follow them letter-for-letter.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Enraged21:
im following them. just hitting a couple speed bumps.

now the laptop wont let me run the program as administrator. so i can't open it whatsoever.

anyone know the solution to this?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] reisaru:
From the Control Panel, right-click Device Manager and select "Run as Administrator". If you don't have the password, you're SOL. Talk to your network administrator.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Enraged21:
(I'm on XP)

Control Panel>System>Device Manager(Can't right click it)>right click the driver and it's not an option. i tried going through properties and it isn't either.

already tried uninstalling and doing it again.

thanks for helping though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] reisaru:
I don't think XP supported running programs as another user. You actually have to log in as a user who has administrator privileges.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Enraged21:
Im on an account thats an admin.. thats what i dont get.

what would the password be?

to the xp account??

Im having trouble installing the necessary driver on my pc so I can flash clockwork on my phone. Every time I click on browse and select the folder with the driver, I keep getting an error that says "found the necessary driver but encountered a problem, either device not connected or service isn't running" or something along those lines. I know I need to flash recovery through NV flash but with out the driver for my phone I can't do squat. Is there a work around for this, or is this the only way to do it? Thx. By the by, I'm on vista.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] clninja:
ok ... so im working my way through this whole guide and im stuck at the flashing CWM with nvflash part

i got the APX driver done .. that all looks correct and it shows up in my device manager as shown in the guide

when i hold my volume up and down buttons and plug in my phone to usb ( with battery removed obviously ) and then click on the button to flash CWM ( external SD ) it says failed ... have tried a few times with the same results

what am i doing wrong? what can i do to fix this?

if you want me to paste the failed message here let me know

thank you
[T-Mobile LG G2x] reisaru:
Error messages are quite necessary in these cases. "failed" doesn't really help.

Make sure you are following the instructions in the first post TO THE LETTER.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] clninja:
im following them exactly

pulled the battery from the phone, opened the nvflash window , hold down volume buttons and keep them held , plug into USB , click the flash external button

then a window pops up with the failed message

i am at work right now so i cannot paste the failed message but when i get home i will definately try it again and if i get the failed message i will copy/paste it here

thank you for the help
[T-Mobile LG G2x] caseykelly:
Did you install the NVIDIA driver before attempting to flash the external Recovery?

EDIT: Nvm I need my eyes checked.

That's the APX driver mentioned in his first post.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] clninja:
ok here is the most recent failed message i got

EDIT : PROBLEM SOLVED

i uninstalled the APX driver and reinstalled ( i had already previously tried this but this time i tried plugging my USB cable into a different USB slot on my computer..not sure if that mattered _ and then tried flashing again and it worked

No, but there's a CWM image file inside the zipfile you downloaded from this thread. The problem isn't with nvflash or with the image file. I'm pretty sure you didn't follow the instructions to the letter. Did you install the APX driver properly? Did you hold down the vol-up and vol-dn buttons until you hit Flash in this program?
