Great!

You are using ARHD at the moment? Just to keep track :D

It might not identify all of them correctly.. hope so though..

Did you succeed in changing menu colors?
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
yup am on ARHD 1.1.0

i was able to change the menu colors, hehe kinda trial by error until i get the best color that i want hehe

great work again
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Nice work max ... it works just as it should ... it displays my roms name too ... miui 1.7.1 :)
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Great!!

Thanks for reporting!

BTW: How do you like MIUI?

Should I try it out? Never saw nor used any MIUI rom..
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
I love it ... its everything i wished the ios was ...you should really try it ... its my primary rom now ... its a very nice experience ... the theme engine rocks ... and the entire ui has been revamped ... please give it a try :)
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Wow.. judging from your reaction this must be something extremely awesome :D

I'll install it right away..

Already 3:20am here though :(

Will only take a glance and then go to sleep :)

Good night and see you and thanks for testing!

"The best!"

ps : you can't resist the customizability of theming(lockscreen sense 3? mehhhh). simply awesome and will blow you out of this world.
[HTC Incredible S] jonata:

tks again
[HTC Incredible S] Raithmir:
Just used this to repartition my SDCARD, used 1GB SD-EXT, No SD-EXT2, and 128MB Swap. All worked fine, just get a warning that SD-EXT2 is not formatted afterwards when you do a file system check.
[HTC Incredible S] Raithmir:
From the first post...
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Hi

Don't do that!

This is not supposed to use swap if you don't use sd-ext at all.

And this is useless for the incredible s :)

Update: I failed to read your post correctly. I'm sorry. So you made an sd-ext partition + a swap.. then this is a bug.

But anyway this is not for the IS :)

You can partition your sdcard to get a properly aligned fat32 partition.. this makes sense (if the alignment check fails).. but for a swap partition to make any sense at all, the current rom you use must support this.

And there is no rom for the incredible s which does that.

Simply because we really have much memory and the sdcard is really really slow...
[HTC Incredible S] jonata:
I see on my sd card and have setting menu color with 4 lines :

....

I don't know how to put green color ...

need to delete the other ?

can you help me ?

tks mate
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Just set the value for green to something big (for example 200 or 255 which is max.). and then set red and blue to something really low like something between 1-20..

Don't delete any value as it will default to red then and print a message that the color config is malformed..
[HTC Incredible S] jonata:
do it,

tks mate, give you reputation !

;)
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Im testing colour now :)
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Just tested colour and itbworks great :cool:
[HTC Incredible S] Raithmir:
Oh I realise that, I was just testing it out :)
[HTC Incredible S] :
So far, no bug has been discovered in 4EXTRecovery 2.0.0 beta.

Plus changing color of the recovery is some sort of fun...for me.:p
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Thank you :)

But there are bugs..

1st: md5sum check could fail if the zip you check is located in certain directories

2nd: romname detection isn't "perfect"

Will have these issues sorted soon I hope :)
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Updated :)

New md5sum check menu item sometimes failed, fixed

Really much improved detection of rom names / backupname gen.

Some minor bugs fixed.
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
And once more updated ;)

Take a look a little bit higher above the downloads section.. otherwise you might be a little bit surprised :D
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
i'll give it a try right now hehe
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Yipee :)
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
just got it installed, in the first post you said to remove 4ext? how will we be able to change the colors?

just installed, i'm going to try the backups right now
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Is everything pink? :D
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
the text aside from the menu is pink hehehe, the menu color is the same color i made from v 2.0.0 ( i didn't delete the file yet for the color scheme) hehe
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Hehehe its pink when the config is corrupted or not up to date.

If you don't like the pink text then you must delete the file.. upon reboot it will be recreated with the new version..
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
do i delete the entire folder or just the file?

EDIT: does it mean my file is out of date or corrupted? i just made a back up and it worked fine, i'm thinking that its out of date. what should i do?

thanks,
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
i just renamed the folder, and now text is white and menu is red =) is that good?
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
yes :D

But you could have deleted it too..

Now the file is recreated with the new format so you can change all colours..

Good night :)

nearly 6am :(

See you!
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
oh thanks Max!!! have a good rest
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Its goin good .. no bugs so far .. nice work bro ... ill snoop around and see if i find anything hehe :D
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Hehehe ... pink text works :D
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
you didn't delete the 4ext folder did you hehe that's why it's pink
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Anyone there to test a new version?

Some bugfixes + a new feature ;)
[HTC Incredible S] ehsan76:
I am on 2.0.1 right now.

I can test the new version if you want :)
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Would be great ;)

After installing and upgrading config, take a look at 4ext.prop ;)
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
i can test too. downloading hehe =)
[HTC Incredible S] ehsan76:
Downloading :)
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Great ;)

Did you get the info about a new config version when starting the recovery?
[HTC Incredible S] ali3nfr3ak:
hi, the last couple of versions you have released, have given me

E: unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/log]

E: can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E: can't open /cache/recovery/log

E: unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/last_log]

E: can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E: can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

E: unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/command]

when i try to wipe cach..

Formating /cache..

E: unknown volume "/cache"

cache wipe complete

Im on virtuous unity 1.27

i tried to do a backup, and it failed whne it got to...

Backing up cache

E: unknown volume for[/cache]

Can't mount /cache!
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Regarding those errors...

That usually happens when you change the file system on /cache

For example if cache is ext3 when you boot recovery and then you wipe ext4..

However, those errors aren't critical as they only appear because recovery's trying to mount cache as it wants to save its log there et.c.

But this:

Formating /cache..

E: unknown volume "/cache"

cache wipe complete

might be interesting.

Can you please boot recovery, print partition info, see what filesystem cache has (tell me), do a wipe (where do you wipe? do you select a specific filesystem or do you use the wipe menu?) and send me your recovery.log pls
[HTC Incredible S] ehsan76:
hmmm Custom Icons ;)

What is the recommended size for icons in pixels??

Can you send some custom icons for testing as I am feeling too clumsy right now to connect my pc and create icons :p
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Sent you a pm ;)

Just tried it.. some of the icons can definitely be much bigger..

Just try it out :)
[HTC Incredible S] ali3nfr3ak:
I will do that, but for now i have to go work , ill be back in a couple of hrs.

my icon size on version 2.0.0 was 400 x 375 212kb, i tested alot of different sizes...

i was deompiling the recovery with android kitchen, if you were wondering how i got the new icon
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Good to know about the sizing, not the themeing freak myself never tried that.

Hope to still be awake when you return..
[HTC Incredible S] ehsan76:
Custom Icons Working :D

Yuppy :D

I used your supplied image for the Clockwork background and its working :D

Will try more later tomorrow as its almost 1:30AM here and I want to sleep now :D

Thanks again for providing some fun and of-course for the great recovery ;)

Keep up the good work :)
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Thnx :)

I'll maybe implement something where you can make your own flashable themes..
[HTC Incredible S] ali3nfr3ak:
data ext4 1232mb

system ext4 585mb

sdcard ext4 14.7gb

sd-ext ext4 1024mb

ummm no cache... that doesnt seem quite right..lol

doing a full format, fresh install
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
I sent you a pm hours ago, already told you about a rare bug that you might have stumbled about..

Should be fixed in new version. Can you try it out please?
[HTC Incredible S] ali3nfr3ak:
Im blind...lol

EDIT: i dont se a new version for IncS only bravo..
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Updated first post
[HTC Incredible S] ali3nfr3ak:
ok. i have a cache back..

but still getting mount and opening errors

/cache/recovery/log

/cache/recovery/command

/cache/recovery/last_log
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Format it!

There must be some kind of corruption on the file system.

I have NEVER had a bug report for that! Never!

Edit: that's also the reason cache didn't show up anymore (and that was a bug! Glad it is resolved.. )
[HTC Incredible S] ali3nfr3ak:
roger that

ok had a misalinged fat32 partition, redid sdcard plus full wipe. thanks for help.
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Is your problem resolved?

Already rebooted recovery? No errors about /cache anymore?
[HTC Incredible S] ali3nfr3ak:
nope, no errors, all is good thanks :D
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Great, np and thanks for this bugreport with the missing /cache partition :)

This was really rare :D And completely my fault. This should never happen anyway, also if fs is corrupted..

Edit "Sorry, you are limited to five thanks per day".. will do that tomorrow then ;)
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Ill test and report soon ...
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Hey ;)

You still there..

Great :)
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
hey max can you also send me sample icons?
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Yes,

Sent ;)
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Send me some too ...
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Srry I'm late :) ... Custom icons work great .. nice work bro ...
[HTC Incredible S] :
Bug report from other users:

Some ROMs and icon mods are unflashable.
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Can you please send me a link of such a rom or mod which is not flashable?

Glad it is marked as RC ;)
[HTC Incredible S] :
I have to ask him.

I will give you the answer tmr. Note that the ROM and MOD might be Chinese.

I will help you to translate if necessary. :)

Btw, your recovery is a masterpiece! :D
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Thank you very much :)

Ok so those mods that don't flash are all chinese?

Please send me a direct download link where I can download it to see what might be wrong..
[HTC Incredible S] f0xrolder:
noob question slowly getting used to adb and fastboot commands, to flash 2.0.2 RC,2 id have to type adb reboot bootloader, then fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and reboot into recovery?

Was going to do it that way but chickened out and installed it via CWM 1.1.1 zip method
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Yes that are the right commands ;)

So you would prefer flashing the recovery with fastboot rather than inside recovery?
[HTC Incredible S] f0xrolder:
just like to learn the basics make life easier, not that using the recovery gui isnt an easy way to do it. makes it nice and fast if i just copy the recovery.img to adb directory and type the commands rather than mounting the sdcard copying the .zip restarting the device and doing it that way.

Just couldnt remember if those were the correct commands to do so. So i used recovery and did it that way.
[HTC Incredible S] :
I dunno

I will ask him anyway, just wait tmr's reply
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
vs fastboot... id use Recovery instead. hassel free
[HTC Incredible S] :
He said that after he re-flashed RC2, problem solved.

It seems this is just a extremely rare issue...
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Good to hear ...
[HTC Incredible S] bahaddin:
4EXTRecovery v2.0.2 RC2 I installed version. ARHD 1.1.1 after the recovery, returned to the screen before you install (4EXTRecovery v1.1.1) Why?
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
that's because the recovery on 1.1.1 is not 2.0.2,

just flash it again if you want to have that
[HTC Incredible S] kaufmanj67:
So this sounds like the beginnings of something BIG. Any chance for glacier support? If not you mind if I try to port it. Downloading now going straight to kitchen with it. Have asked koush for something like this a few times since the first ext4 roms started showing up in glaciervile......

Brought to you by my thumbs and a phone
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Hi!

Thanx very much for the positive feedback ;)

I would like to make a stop now in supporting more devices, because I'm planning to include some more features for the current v2.

Once v2 is complete I'll add the remaining devices and also might make the source public :)

Have to think about it.. maybe include glacier as last device for now.

I'll send you a pm.

BTW: porting should work!
[HTC Incredible S] kaufmanj67:
Awesome I'll just do a port no need to make more work for you. That way you can keep on the important stuff. Your doing great with this keep up the hard work. I'll keep you posted on bugs and stuff.

While I got this in my kitchen if any other devices are wanting to give it a try let me know...HTC devices only have no time to learn new stuff right now LOL

Brought to you by my thumbs and a phone
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
The main reason is the lack of completeness ;)

Please don't port it to any more devices than the glacier..
[HTC Incredible S] kaufmanj67:
You got it and since it beta I'll keep to myself until you say It's ok. Again thank you for your work and the opportunity to give it a try.

Brought to you by my thumbs and a phone
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Did you have success in porting it?
[HTC Incredible S] kaufmanj67:
Been busy with family today. On my way home to give it a shot. Not to worried have had success with roms and themes. With all the updates to disaxda's kitchen he has made building painless.

Brought to you by my thumbs and a phone
[HTC Incredible S] John Anderton:
I like the new CWM. Had a question though.. the last version was 1.1.0. Why the big jump to 2.0.2 for RC1->RC2?

One silly and honestly rather pointless thing to point out is the battery text when the charge is 100%. Sounds weird. It was something like "Your battery is to 100% charge"

Like the new menus. A lot quicker and easier to use especially the choose file to install from being above update.zip :)

If I want to run a script to flash some files into some root folders before I clean install a new ROM, how would I write that script?

If I want to do multiple such installations (I have 3 batch files to flash these things in using ADB.. was thinking it would be easier if I had a couple of zips to do it from CWM).. can I have one main zip with a menu asking what things I want to install and it picking up the other things to install from zips? Something like a menu driven program.

How'd I go about achieving this? I did search but I couldn't find anything on how to create a CWM script. I'm pretty sure my keywords were wrong :( Help? :)
[HTC Incredible S] kaufmanj67:
Hey madmax got it ported last night......I think haven't tried it yet will try it as soon as I get home tonight. Nice work by the way took a look inside. Amazing what you coders can do.

Brought to you by my thumbs and a phone
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Updated :)
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Have you tried it already?
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
just installed the latest version Max. great work as usual
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
thnx for the feedback!
[HTC Incredible S] kaufmanj67:
Just about too. Finishing up a build prop for another project noticed you just updated might have to redo the port

Brought to you by my thumbs and a phone
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Just try if the 1st port works ;)
[HTC Incredible S] kaufmanj67:
K got it to boot up getn tired long day at work play with it tmrw

Brought to you by my thumbs and a phone
[HTC Incredible S] John Anderton:
Anyone? Max? :(
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Yay ... testing time :)
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
"Critical" fix.. but not necessarily needed to upgrade if used with some common sense :D see changelog
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
If someone would test the next version :)

md5sum: 1de276ae2b73002c3cad8e8d14333df5
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Im on it :)
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Changlelog?
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
:)

I haven't included your changes yet.. planning to include those when I upload it ;)
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
later ;)

Too much work right now.
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Then what do i need to test xD
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
nothing special :D

Just use it..
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Ahh yes.. if you toggle usb storage and copy some files .. they should be immediately available when you select install zip..

There was a big in the previous version where you would have needed to either unmount /sdcard manually via the menu or reboot recovery (after adding files over usb)

Also all known issues should be fixed.
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Well ... i did notice you labeled the info on the main page now :)

As fr the sdcard thing ... nt near a pc ... so ill test it later ... its working fine as of now :)
[HTC Incredible S] hussainmushahid:
I was wondering, by using your own graphics do you mean one can have a background of his choice in the recovery? or is it about the icons ?
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Right!

Custom backgrounds, custom colours, custom progressbar (it consists of icons), other custom icons.. et.c.

Just take a look into 4ext.prop on your sdcard to get an idea of what you can customize at the moment (probably more to come).

With next version it will also be possible to pack your customizations into a flashable zip to "flash" for others.. so you can basically create themes for others to use..
[HTC Incredible S] Cardiiiii:
How do I change the menu colour?
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Look into /sdcard/4ext/4ext.prop
[HTC Incredible S] Cardiiiii:
And what next?
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
You see that?

############ MENU COLOR SETTINGS ############
## ##
## min value for a color is 0 ##
## max value for a color is 255 ##

color.custom.sdcard.force = no
menu.color.red = 184
menu.color.green = 1
menu.color.blue = 26
menu.color.selection = 200

############ TEXT COLOR SETTINGS ############
## ##
## min value for a color is 0 ##
## max value for a color is 255 ##

Change the rgb values to get different colors
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
New beta :)
[HTC Incredible S] baste07:
downloading it right now.

hopefully change log will come next soon
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Downloaded already ... but will test later ... school now :-(
[HTC Incredible S] Cardiiiii:
Sorry to be an ass, but I'm not very good with all this, think you can give me a step by step instruction to change my menus to cyan (to match with CM7)?
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Hi,

Get something where you can mix rgb values and see the result.

I think you can use paint on windows, or gimp.

Mix your colour and then insert the values for green, blue and red ;)

Try it! You will see it's easy ;)

For a start cyan: try to use high green and blue values, like:

red:0

green: 255

blue: 255

Different tones:

0

183

235

I'd leave "selection" colour as is. But you can experiment with it what you think looks best..
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Update: probably last opne for that version

Will post the changelog later.

Fixes, flashable settings/pics (themes), displaying of free space, customizable mkfs/tune2fs parameters for sd-ext
[HTC Incredible S] Cardiiiii:
Thanks, got it!
[HTC Incredible S] hussainmushahid:
and how to change the background ?
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Please take a look at 4ext.prop on your sdcard.

You basically only need to add images to your icons folder with the same name as the original ones..
[HTC Incredible S] hussainmushahid:
sorry if this has already been asked but what is the size in pixels supposed to be of icon_clockwork ?
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
The icon sizes are extremely different..

The size of icon_clockwork is also extremely small.. it's a small icon anyway..

Here a quote of a user who set a full screen image:
[HTC Incredible S] hussainmushahid:
tried a image at 480x800 resolution and it works full screen yey :D
[HTC Incredible S] Nvidia32:
it's just perfect, thanks ;)
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Thank you very much! And your image is really something special! Looks very good!

Please help me.

ClockworkMod recovery wont boot up AT ALL

It wont let me in my recovery settings.

Pressing the down volume button and the power button gives me the recovery option, but will do the same exact thing.

In fact the second I go to it from ROM manager the screen goes black and then takes me to my HTC screen and just stays there.

I cant even go back to factory settings.

I would like to just restore my origional phone/settings and just forget about this whole flashing rom idea.

PLEASE help me. How do I get to my restore so I can go back to my old settings???
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
How did you flash the recovery? Which recovery did you flash? And what rom did you flash?
[HTC Incredible S] cgorki:
Same here, my phone get stuck at the white screen with the HTC logo, I reflashed the last build, when phone was up and running, since I can't use the other method!!

EDIT: DAMN :D I took the image from this thread for my Desire HD :D LOL now I see what I messed up, I'm in the wrong thread! :D

Nee help here as well

data

I got problem restoring backup (RHD 1.1.2) with 2.1.0.RC1 because data keeps unchanged.

I needed to format data before restore to solve the problem, never got this problem with previous versions, never need to format any partition for restoring backup's. :confused::confused::confused:
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Thanks for the bugreport! So with previous versions of 4ext this never happened?

Which rom had you installed before you restored the backup? Was it also ARHD? You definately know that only data didn't get restored? Was there an error during restore, or did you just notice when you booted? Trying to track that down. You are the 2nd one reporting that... Very difficult to reproduce though. If it was possible for you to reproduce this problem, it would be great if you could send me your recovery.log...
[HTC Incredible S] bippo:
data

I have used all of 4ext versions as updated (but few days later), I use only ARHD as updated , I did restore also backup with 2.0.2 RC2 without problems. No error report, two times same restore with same result (No Sense 3.0 components only SPB 3D); I have formatted all partition with Mike's tool, went back to 4ext 1.1.1 and restored without problems the same backup made few ours ago using 4ext 2.1.0 RC1. It is first time the backup don't get back entirely. :):)
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Thnx, but need more info :)

I will send you a pm!
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
I cannot reproduce this :(

Please try if you can reproduce this and if you could, then please send me the recovery.log of that recovery session where this failed.

Thank you!
