[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GrkEngineer:
I don't think so. it has more to do with who controls the partition. Devices with SD cards could unmount the card to allow USB storage mode. That's why you had to enable/disable it. With devices with a single drive (Xoom was my first device like this), you're stuck with MTP because the OS can't give up the entire mount.

There is an alternative if MTP really is going slow. Using CWM Recovery, you can mount as USB storage. Because you're in recovery and not running the OS, you can transfer your larger files in this mode. It might be faster.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
Thanks for the reply. Is the author of cwm aware of the problem? Anyone knows?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
When you shut your phone down then charge, your phone will not boot up but only show a lightning icon. You will get no charging indicator.

I can't get to recovery, after I hold vol down and power, it then says "start" below it says "downloading... do not turn off target" (download mode), I can only click start..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sphinxy:
I believe its vol up and down with power.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cred05:
If it keeps going back to stock recovery after reboot, delete /system/recovery-from-boot.p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] idan_mo:

+1 Is this CWM related?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
I am sure it is.

If you can't get to ClockworkMod 5.5.0.2 (like me) do this,

fastboot-windows flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.2-maguro.img then DON'T reboot, click to recovery with volume buttons, it will take you to ClockworkMod 5.5.0.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brian6685:
I keep getting all these errors in recovery when i go into it and/or backup/restore/flash/wipe, etc.. It says cant find /cache/recovery/log or something like that. It still works, it just seems to not be able to find the logfile to log anything its doing... anyone else see this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stickjohnonaah:
Guys here is the solution for having to reinstall cwm every time, open root explorer and navigate to system and delete or move a file named "recovery-from-boot.p" and your issue will be fixed. It is a confirmed cwm issue
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Yeah I had this, enter recovery and wipe cache partion then go to advanced options and reboot recovery and your errors will be gone

To be sure, is stock recovery the android with chest plate open and the exclamation symbol next to it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrvirginia:
yes.

this CWM has screwed my device up. i can't get past the bootanimation now :eek:

edit: i'm okay now. loaded the insecure boot.img, went into recovery, wiped cache partition, rebooted recovery, wiped data, wiped cache partition, wiped dalvik cache, rebooted :)

---------- Post added at 09:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:25 AM ----------

this did not work for me.

no offense, but this version of CWM is total crap.

edit: and i'm okay again. after loading a ROM, CWM now sticks. never had so much trouble with a phone since jumping to Android over a year and a half ago. 3rd rooted devices for me, 2nd samsung one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Knolly:
What exactly does Fix Permissions in CWM do? Whenever I run it as part of installing the Google Wallet hack, it stops a good chunk of my programs from working without uninstalling and then reinstalling them from the market.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siedkins:
I think this is more ROM related as I have not had this issue with MCR and CWM. When I tried to flash franco's kernel my phone wasn't too happy as the boot image was different to the one for MCR. When I tried to get back into recovery was when I first had this freeze and had to pull the battery. I am back to all MoDaCo ROM & Kernel and all working fine and no freeze's.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrvirginia:
i believe this gent is correct. i was coming back to the threads to ask about this very issue and i was going to go to the developers ROM thread because this wasn't the case until i flashed said ROM. i'll now stop turning my phone off and charging it at the same time until i load another one :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
Sorry for the previous reply. Now I think it is a kernel related issue. I flashed the MCR rom and everything works great now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrvirginia:
i don't. i'm running the stock kernel with a modified ROM. normally i would think the same, and try a new kernel first before making such an assumption, but not with a stock kernel.

edit: it's CWM. same issue now and i'm running stock deodexed ROM and stock kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mvpeterson:
Hi Guys,

Hope you can help me out here. I've flash CWM but how do I actually get into it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrvirginia:
there's 2 ways i go about it currently. shut down the device, then you can hold down volume+/- and then power, then use volume+/- until you see recovery on the screen, then hit power button to select. or, the way i like to do it, is via an app called Quick Boot that's free in the market. you'll also start to see APM (advanced power menu) mods floating around where you can have the device on and just hold the power button and select it. VillainROM's first release has this already :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
It pretty much does what the name implies. It goes through the phone and sets the correct permissions for apps, and I guess other files as well (read write execute). If they aren't set correctly they won't work right.

If you look in /system/app/ you'll see all the files have the same permissions. rw-r--r--. Each set of permissions is really 3 different users (owner, group, and others). so owner has read and write permission, group and other only have read access. none of them get execute access.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevinniven:
CWM

I have installed and see some others having same problems. When i hit boot into recovery i get the little android guy with red tri. Also when I hold vol up and down and select recovery, same thing. I have also tried downloading quick boot with no luck. I havent been able to go into recovery at all! Any news on a fix for this? Am I doing something wrong?? Thx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
That's cause u have the stock Android recovery back. There is a script that runs at boot up that checks ur recovery. If it doest see the stock one it replaces recovery back to stock. Rename or delete the script.

The script name and location are in the thread somewhere. I forget offhand. Do some reading.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevinniven:
Just reading thru again and cant find script. If anyone has a link plz post. thx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
There you go. Kinda odd my phone doesn't even have the script... I don't have CWR installed either. But that should be your problem why CWR disappears after reboots.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Manafa:
Maybe a stupid question, but should I have CWM icon and app after flash it? Because I did it like is said in the first post, but I can't find nothing new, except Su app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mike1986.:
Nope, you wont have recovery icon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elemenopee:
Where exactly can I find this script?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kevinniven:
plus one. thx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nakadm:
Is it possible to have a CWM version that can leave the Internal SD card intact when using Wipe/Factory reset option? Sort of like Mike's SuperWipe Lite script?

Sorry if this is a silly question
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:

grab a file manager of your choice, check options/preferences, find the option to remount /system as read/write (rw), check it.

go to /system/, delete file named recovery-from-boot.p

reboot.

done.

this should be like, common knowledge.

Infact, I tried flashing CWM with fastboot and then pulling the battery...and then booting with vol down+power and I still get the 'Downloading... Do not turn off target!!' screen... maybe I'm doing something else wrong but I don't know what.

---------- Post added at 01:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 PM ----------

Err, going to recovery from the fastboot screen (both vol buttons pressed when powering on) works..but just pressing vol down doesn't. I must have misunderstood something else.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
Vol Down + Power is odin download mode, not recovery. Either use both vol buttons + power to get into fastboot and select recovery, or try Vol Up + power to get into recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frontalot:
Clockworkmod isn't working for me. I can install it fine, make backups and restore, and basically do anything but successfully flash a ROM. When I try to install any image, custom or stock, my phone gets stuck at the Google logo on reboot.

I can install the stock image using fastboot without any problem. Thoughts?

My phone's information on the fastboot screen:

Product name - tuna

i have been trying to crack this for 2 days but cant

please help
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
you have to type fastboot from either the folder fastboot is in, or set that folder to your path (they you can type if from anywhere).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hussainally:
thanks for your reply,but please bare with me

1.where is the right folder recommended to put fastboot and the .img file?

2.Should the the fastboot file read like this(fastboot-windows.exe)?

3.do i run this commands when i am in bootloader mode or recovery mode?

4.If i still cant install,can i install this via rom manager?is the version the same?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
If your having problems get rom manager and it do it for you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hussainally:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mohitrocks:
Hey everyone,

I really need help and a complete amateur at flashing at best.

So, I have root and an unlocked bootloader, but I don't know how to get clockwork recovery running. I want to be able to run custom roms (namely Android HD 1.3.2) and in order to do so, I'm fairly certain I need Clockwork recovery. The only other device I have worked with was the motorola milestone (international version of the OG droid) and that couldn't even get an unlocked bootloader (stupid motorola...) so I am here asking you guys how do I do it?

Note: I have seen this:

"2. Flash CWM (fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.2-maguro.img)"

But I have no idea how to execute that command. I have followed the post in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1362957 and so do I have to put the img file in the C/root folder where the superboot files are? Please help guys!

Thanks so much, and any help is appreciated

Mosh
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ratcom:
Your best bet would be to use rom manager to flash the cwm recovery onto your phone as the only work you really need to do is root your phone first.

To root follow one of the guilds on here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
bootloader mode, select recovery with volume rocker, press power to start (which will lead you to recovery).

or just connect phone to adb and 'adb reboot recovery'.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
Cause vol down + power is download mode.

Vol up + power = recovery

both vol + power = fastboot (where you can also select recovery).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mohitrocks:
I have already rooted the phone, I just don't know where to put the file and how to execute the command :/

and also I don't know what to press or do on the phone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
place recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.2-maguro.img in the same folder the superboot files are.

open up cmd, change dir to superboot files are. enter:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.2-maguro.img

done.

Idk how to fastboot on windows.. not sure if it is a executable, *.bat, whatever. But you get the idea.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mohitrocks:
thanks for the reply, but the script isn't working... when I type it in it says 'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command... I think the command doesn't work for windows :/ Do I have to do anything to the device other than put it in bootloader mode?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
no, nothing else.

first hit on google: link
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mohitrocks:
Seems a little difficult for a guy like me :(

I saw a post earlier about someone doing it through rom manager or something? Is this possible? If it is, I would really appreciate someone telling me exactly how to go about installing it.

On a side note, I really want a battery concious rom, so I guess I'll go ahead and also try it out. Do i put the files in the fastboot folder or the folder with the superboot files? Thanks again.

EDIT: THANKS FOR YOUR EXTENSIVE HELP! IT WORKED :D

it says:

finished. total time: 2.060s

Now, can I just power off? the device (it is in bootloader mode and says start)

EDIT2: I think it worked! :D I rebooted to the OS, and everything is working fine :)

Now, how can I confirm that the clockwork recovery is actually installed?

And more importantly, how can I go about installing custom roms!

Can't wait! And eager for any replies :)

EDIT3: nvm, I downloaded rom manager, and installed clockwork recovery and I'm about to install Android Revolution HD 1.3.2! :D Thanks guys!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrvirginia:
woops nvm
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jpalo:
First tried with fastboot and command line, but only got Android guy laying on it's back with red ! mark when trying to go to recovery. Then downloaded ROM Manager, and installed CWM using it and CWM now works.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cardiiiii:
Yes but when you reboot I'm sure you get a message saying 'Android is updating', that means it's flashing the stock recovery over your CWM recovery again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anheuer:
ok i have searched but havent found my answer.

how do i flash the img?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
Did you read the first post?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anheuer:
Yes,... but that doesn't bring me all the way.

I believe you are referring to the command, but i dont know where i need to be to enter the command.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
In which case you need to Google the adb/fastboot commands and how to set them up
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anheuer:
all i need to know if the few steps.

i know i'm supposed to do this via CMD, but i dont know what the commands are again to connect to the device and how to flash..

if you happen to know a link to a post who explains this i wil be very happy,

i seared but the results i found are not for the similar situation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrvirginia:
oh wow. so this is why i was seeing this and why i don't any longer. good to know. thank you :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kgill7:
so installing the recovery throught rom manager is basically the same thing is, correct?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cardiiiii:
Yes that's what I did, but for some reason if you install CWM on stock ROM even after rooting, every time you reboot, it writes stock recovery over CWM. It seems this issue is sorted only when you install a custom ROM which changes the file that checks your recovery on boot up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kgill7:
so once i flash the new rom it wont rewrite to stock recovery then??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
so is this cwm stable and bug free or close to bug free? and also, i haven't found a definitive answer but if i relock the bootloader does it unroot the nexus or is it left alone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
I wouldn't lock the bootloader back if I were you. Especially with CWR in it's current state. But it won't unroot you or anything like that. It will just make it so when you want to do anything, like flash a new revision of CWR, you'll need to unlock again (which will wipe your whole phone).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cardiiiii:
It most probably won't, but please double check with the Dev.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3des:
Sorry if this question has been answered already, searched around the boards but was unable to find a clear answer.

After transferring files via phone from pc (MTP) and mounting CWM, I get an error everytime i navigate through the CWM menu...

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

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

once i navigate to the menu to discover my recent transferred file, it does not show...thus it feels as though CWM is not reading my recently transferred files...

A bit about my device

Running AR 1.3.1 rom;

stock kernel

mods feel free to move this to the Q/A section if needed...figured since i installed cwm via fastboot, maybe there might be a method to get around this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luffyp:
Does it make any difference between flashing CWM via Rom Manager and via fastboot?
