[Nexus One Android Development] :
Okay first have to say thanks for the text resizing in the Recovery Console, it is so much easier to read now and looks so so so much better, really appreciate that and a little thank you will be winging its way to your donate pot. One 'glitch' as mentioned in the review below is that after theming the recovery I very rarely get to see it as when you use the console to do anything it reverts to original theme for the task. The theme is still intact and if I manually boot to recovery I have my theme, nothing major just wondering if it was possible to use my theme even through console commands? Kinda makes theming seem useless if you have the console.

Also I've noticed it can be very hit and miss with Superuser permissions, I find I have to delete and reinstate them at least twice a week, this is especially so when restoring a backup! Only app that does this on my phone.

Also I agree with you on the not clearing the screen after each task as I've found this useful myself, my only request would be a possible blank line adding after each task to separate them for easier reading? (Meh I know its so minor it's off the scale but can never hurt to ask!)

Now on to my review of the recovery and the Recovery Console (paid version) and I'm so utterly impressed by it all, honestly Love the fact I don't even need to go into recovery anymore really, I let the console do it's thing be it flashing a zip or backing up and it will boot to recovery, do what it needs and reboot my phone all whilst I'm making a cuppa! My only minor irritation is that the theming doesn't stick whilst using Recovery Console meaning theming is a little pointless if you use the console.

The feature rich Recovery Console is just a delight to use, it's fantastic being able to have full recovery control all whilst having my phone on and functional as such. From wiping to back-ups, installing zips or just taking a peek into the 'other side' (you will find out what I mean ;)) or even theme it to your tastes this is the greatest recovery bar none in my eyes!

I have even got into the habit of backing up more regularly as its so simple to do it has turned from a chore into a delight because of the ease of control over the recovery using the console.

In the recovery itself it's just simple and easy to use with advanced options for such things as sd-card partition alignment tools, checking file system on Ext & Fat32! MD5 check sum checks and output for checking no corruption (can also be done in the Recovery Console) and the usual suspects we all know and love plus a few extras. This does use edify scripting meaning older flashable zips made for Amon Ra's recovery won't work but I found a very simple solution to this, please note you need adb/Fastboot setup for this. Copy Ra's recovery to your sdk/tools folder and open a command prompt and boot phone to bootloader (can also be done from Recovery Console!) plug in usb if not already attached and in the command prompt type - fastboot boot c:\sdk\tools\recovery221.img (rename as appropriate) and I have a working copy of Amon Ra's recovery v2.2.1 running from my PC that allows me to flash the older files without all the converting nonsense and keeps 4EXT intact as my phones recovery ;)

I could go on for hours regarding each function and why I love it but that would take the fun out of your own voyage of discovery so to speak, all I have to say is you have to try this! With the Recovery Console as it's partner you will never change again, trust me!
