Custom CWM-Based Recovery TouchEdition by Team UtterChaos [ALPHA-test6]

Custom CWM-Based Recovery TouchEdition by Team UtterChaos [ALPHA-test6]

[ info ]

this is standard CWM recovery with some changes and ability to navigate using touch screen (on-screen buttons)

i dont have this device with me so cant do testing myself... smirkis was helping out with testing it but i need more users/testers...

THIS RECOVERY IS STILL IN

ALPHA TESTING

STAGE!

once all testing has been completed the final version will be released in separate thread....

[ WARNING ]

as of now this is only for advanced users to test out

DO NOT TEST THIS UNLESS U KNOW HOW TO REVERT BACK TO STOCK

[ features ]

based on standard CWM5.0.2.7 recovery sources

has on-screen buttons for navigation thru menus

revamped layout for recovery menu (to improve navigation) [renamed few options and changed their order]

changed "wipe data/factory reset" option to just "factory reset", and detailed the partitions which will be wiped

added reboot options

reboot into system

reboot into recovery

reboot into fastboot mode

"Partition SDCard" is disabled for this device

add confirmation to "backup" option in Nandroid menu... it used to keep getting pressed by mistake and start making backups immediately... now it will ask u before starting backup ;)

removed tons of "NO"s from some menus...

[ how to test ]

if u have flashboot working then try if u can hotboot the recovery:

fastboot boot filename.img

device should immediately start booting into recovery

AS FAR AS POSSIBLE DO NOT directly flash it...

if u want to flash this recovery on ur main recovery partition reboot into fastboot mode and enter the command:

fastboot flash recovery filename.img

this will flash this test recovery directly on ur device instead of hotbooting it

[ how to use recovery ]

use onscreen buttons to navigate in recovery menus

[ what all to test ]

flashing UPDATE.zip (test update.zip provided below which has standard mounting commands & will copy a file "blankplaceholder" to /system, /data & /cache partitions)

backup/restore of current ROM

mounting USB storage in recovery menu

access to device via adb

fix permissions (Advanced Menu)

reboot options (check if device can reboot into system, recovery & fastboot mode)

[ how to report issues ]

while reporting issues (if any) kindly provided detailed info as to what all steps lead to that error/issue... also while in this recovery mode (before rebooting) pull the recovery log files using ADB and upload them with ur post

adb pull /cache/recovery .

[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
I highly suggest anyone willing to test this, have a fastboot cable on hand and fff1.2 incase anything happens. drivers must be working properly!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] animefun135:
Touch navigation buttons work very badly, not easy to use recovery.

I think they do not coincide with the coordinates they images on the screen.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DooMLoRD:
yes the buttons are not aligned correctly with the hotspots...

we will fix it next release...

actually the hotspots are not just at that button, they span the entire row in which the button lies...

its difficult to develop this since we dont have device with us... we are fixing the issues as per the user reports...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] teookie:
Up, down, back buttons work great. The mapping for the select button seems high. Have to press bottom of button to get it to work. I like how the buttons flash red when you press them. :-)

adb works.

Backup works.

Reboot system works GREAT! It appears to automatically change the bootmode back to 4000.

Reboot recovery works!

Reboot fastboot works!

USB mounting works.

When scrolling down long lists, the highlighting overlaps the touch buttons...

Test update didn't work.

Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
E:Error in /sdcard/download/test_emmc_update.zip
(Status 0)
Installation aborted.

Factory reset works. I like how you listed the effected partitions.

The format options in "mounts and storage" appear to work. THANK YOU for listing at the top what partition you are about to format. CW recovery on my INC does not do this and I wish it did!

Flashing ROM's works. I flashed ICS. :cool:

Restore works. I'm back on CM7 again. :)

mount system works

mount data works... but unable to unmount it. -never mind, it took a few tries then it finally did unmount.

mount cache works

fix permissions appears to work.

Looks like everything works! I can't think of a good reason not to flash this as is. :D

Nice work!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
I think when ur ready doomlord, start ur own tread to maintain a release post!

I'm off work in 20 mins and I'm diving in to reconfirm everything teookie has posted.

the touch was very sensitive when I was testing on build4. but I was getting used to it quickly playing around with it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] androidcues:
wow... i will test tomorrow.

offtopic...... now I'm just wondering.... isn't it possible to have a functional bash terminal so we can do additional work using terminal? in recovery? kind of like amon re did with his dream recovery with #utils.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
Sweet. It's a major bummer that you didn't get enuf pledge's to open up the donation links to get a fire for development. Maby it was a bad time of the year. I got 50 bucks heading your way if/when you decide to entertain the idea again. And it's awesome to see you tiptoeing in the kindle fire development section :p your a major benefit to the community!

Anyway, back on topic :D I made a few font.zip's to try out and they all worked. I was not able to flash anything with ROM manager's install from sdcard option tho. It looked like it was going to but just sits at the screen with the ! And Android, tapping the screen brought up the on screen buttons but i was unable to exit that screen without doing a hard reset. There also was no text on the screen. I did pull the log and last log when it was sitting there (I'll attach those when i get back to my computer) ROM manager was nagging me about flashing clockwork, not sure how to get around that.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DooMLoRD:
thanks for the exhaustive testing!

that test_emmc_update.zip uses update-binary which worked on my HTC Flyer (eMMC device)... i was hoping that the same would work on KF...

basically it all depends on correct updater-script (commands) and update-binary

anyways seeing that u have a update.zip that works is great!

i want the following two files from that ICS update.zip (these are in the META-INF\com\google\android\ folder of that zip):

update-binary

updater-script

just extract the above two files from a working update.zip and just compress them and upload it with ur post...

i will create another test_update.zip using those... so we can do further testing (like flashing kernels via recovery ;) )

as i said before i did some changes to improve the user interface ;)

so other than the misaligned buttons-hotspot i think mostly everything is working correctly... we will fix this issue soon...

hope a few more users can test out!

dont really know what "additional work" u want to do... can u kindly elaborate?

btw i can always add the bash binary to /sbin/ so u can access bash while in recovery...

thanks for the support mate! ya may be u are right, it was a bad time of year holidays and stuff... anyways lets see...

in ROM Manager there is a "Manual Override" option... on ARC we used to select "Desire HD" as device and then ROM Manager would continue to work normally... may be u can try this trick...

BTW if u want to use it with ROM Manager u will have to flash the recovery onto the recovery partition of the device (and not hotboot it)...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] theholyfork:
Agreed, I'll be sending at least $30 if it happens again.

Looking forward to trying this out when I get to a computer later!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] teookie:
Here you go doomlord...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
I did try the manual override but didn't realize i needed to choose a phone model anyway. I pressed the back button in fear of it flashing something incompatible. I wonder which one we should choose...Maby the nook color? Anyway, i am unable to upload via Tapatalk so here is a link to my log files http://db.tt/n3LGlc8v

As for the updater scripts and whatnot, i used zipthemer to package up my fonts.zip. It has an option to configure the edify scripts by choosing a zip from the sdcard where i choose the official 6.2.1 zip
[Kindle Fire Android Development] androidcues:
I am usually TERRIFIED when I have to flash a recovery from android system... much less through an apk...

Nothing gives me more confidence than flashing through fastboot. It is the purest most solid way and that is the way it should be done IMHO. Everytime CWM updates its recovery I have to hunt and hung and hunt for the recovery image because Koush hides it and wants people to just do it from his app.

---------- Post added at 11:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 AM ----------

well..... i do not have a pacifier for the Fire -- so now wondering what it saves me from OTHER than switching in/out of idme bootmode 4002 and 5001.

I was all set to flash this puppy, so now I am back to the threads wondering exactly what other situations the factory cable will save me from. I see there is no Wiki for the Fire yet. (I think thats my next project)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
what does a factory cable do other than change bootmodes? everything u mention above. the guarantee of getting iinto fastboot no matter what (bricked somehow) and u can fastboot flash anything. it was needed a few times when twrp was being made as well cuz they bricked testers devices. the cables not necessary but its good to have.

I'm off today, so breakfast than I'm flashing this puppy directly for more testing.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DooMLoRD:
hey guys i think we have fixed the hotspots issue...

new test version should be available soon...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DooMLoRD:
thanks!

based on this i have created another test update.zip

test update.zip provided below will copy a file "blankplaceholder" to /system, /data & /cache partitions

after flashing the update.zip just reboot into OS to check if the files were created on those partitions

[Kindle Fire Android Development] northmendo:
Well wipe data works well. I was quickly scrolling just to see how well the recovery navigation worked and while hitting the down arrow it selected wipe data. I tried to reporduce it to see if it was me or the navigation and could reproduce it several times. It seem when you go to fast it selects rather than navigates on occasion.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
I think its the lag from debug being on. we turned it on to do some testing and he left it in there.

when u scroll too fast it actually selects whatever its highlighting when u hit down/up. with debug off it shouldn't be an issue.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
Everything I've tried is working fine on my end... Can we get a version with the debugging off please? :p

I am wondering how to get it to work with ROM manager... Specifically, the manual override... Is there a specific device i should choose? Will it download and try to install something on my device or Maby have some other side effects?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] androidcues:
man.. ****ty last 3 hours but if it wasnt for Dev Fox I would still be spinning circles

1.i play with v6 more in CWM

make backup

tinker around some more in CWM

reboot into OS get ready for V13

find I can only ls to 128MB of **** out of 5GB,..figuring I made sdcard ro somehow... i go back to cwm unmount remount fix permissions, and relearn linux all at once.. all on slow internet...

2. I say f-it and figure its corrupted... but Its NOT corrupted.

I backup ALL of 5GB to computer.

so... 128MB only visible in linux... in android... terminal.. but 5GB visible in Windoze...HOWEVER I cannot see the files in windows I cant see the back end of 4GB -- so

1. I must know why this happened and 2. why did this occur?> Was it CWM? I doubt it... it may just be a freaky thing... My file is now "DCF" in Windows.. I dont know enough about that right now...

so https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GBT-7k7nc1IpzMk7KdxKnD9BElp-UN12w75et-_H4WU/edit

hopefully the answer is in there somewhere...

Hopefully someone has a suggestion it is 11:30 now I am going outside for a smoke and beer and when I get back I will either

1. Fix file system siomehow or

2. Repartition using CWM and then flash V13 and feel like Ive done something with my evening.

I am on gtalk as joshcues -- i will be miserable if I do not find out exactly why this happened, i am not upset about the sdcard, I just dont like not knowing why something went poof... mistakes lead to answers and glory.

This scard was first partitioned using gfree...

then I let TWRP do it after a few days

Now I either am going to use CWM for this just because someones gotta do it and I dont really want to go back to TWRP

edit - an hour later I am restored and got restocked the sdcard and running v13 and I feel real good about this.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
Were you able to get it to flash a zip? I was getting errors earlier.

Not sure what went wrong above me, doubt it was cwm I've flashed it directly and didn't have any issues. As long as u have fff1.2 u can Always rebuild the partition tables using fastboot.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DooMLoRD:
manual override doesnt flash a recovery... its ment to be used when u already have CWM on ur device...

just select Manual Override and then select Desire HD as device and CWM3.x as recovery...

then u should be able to use most recovery functions from ROM Manager
[Kindle Fire Android Development] androidcues:
http://db.tt/QJ7AVThTI couldt flash emmc or the zip with v13

I did flash a gapps and titanium zip and just reflashed the cm7 zip.

Will look for output zip Today

Edit.. was able to flash emmc3

Heres link to logs

Can we disable md5 chex? Cant restore twrp backup with cwm
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
Success! Although, it kinda worries me a little having access to a different devices downloads lol and after the install, bootmode is still set to recovery so it just reboots back to recovery. Is it based on clockwork that uses the edify scripting or older method?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DooMLoRD:
em so flashing update.zip worked?

NO MD5HASH CHECK IS VERY IMPORTANT... if its not checked the system partitions can get damaged if the backup files were corrupt (which causes MD5HASH fail)...

sorry i dont follow waht u mean...

while in recovery u rebooted into system using "reboot options" -> "reboot into system" right? that should set correct bootmode...

please test out that full menu... "reboot options"
[Kindle Fire Android Development] androidcues:
Ok on Md5hash - will just extract old nandroids and manually restore somehow.

Yes I was able to flash the update.zip I believe the logs are in that dropbox link I sent - if you want new logs let me know.

I tested out the full reboot menu and its awesome --- last one I tested was reboot recovery - I expected that to return me into fastboot loop so I was ready with adb - however it returned me to recovery in idme 4000 so your fix works --

will check back in a couple hours for a new test if any.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] foxdog66:
Ummm... Sorry if I'm not so clear... with ROM manager i did the manual override and choose the one you said to (desire HD i think it was) under the "download ROM" section is where all the downloads for that device that I was referring to. The option "install ROM from sdcard" i was able to browse my sdcard and choose a zip. It rebooted and successfully installed the zip in clockwork and then rebooted again. At this point i was hoping it was just going to load up the OS but the bootmode was still set to recovery so it loaded clockwork. The option to reboot to system in clockwork rebooted to the OS like it should.

It's not a problem with the recovery. The recovery is working great for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DooMLoRD:
ah ok...

so u faced this issue when u specifically selected an option via ROM Manager...

wait i will need to check in recovery sources if i can trigger the special reboot command which is required for this device (bootmode/idme)...

btw i dont see many ppl testing this recovery...

keep testing and reporting guys... else i cant finalize this recovery...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
when I had it flashed directly as my recovery, I couldnt flash my cm7.zip. it gave error 7. other people say there not having that issue tho. ill play mmore later today. but I had to put back twrp to get back up as I deleted that backup I made thru cwm and couldn't flash a os.zip
[Kindle Fire Android Development] northmendo:
@ DooMLoRD

I'm thinking you need your own thread at this point. It would be much easier to keep track if you could just update the first post.

Also are you accepting donations yet to buy yourself a KF?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] DooMLoRD:
ok i will start a new thread....

new test version is ready which hopefully should address the "reboot into system after install from ROM manager" issue...

well we wont be accepting donations unless we see lot of user interest and that users are willing pledging (and hopefully later donating) donations to reach the target amount (300USD)...
[Kindle Fire Android Development] theholyfork:
So far I think I've seen 3 people (including myself) willing to donate $100 total. I think you'd be able to get enough. Its worth a shot! :P

THIS particular recovery is deprecated; the CWM that everyone is using is a either the DooMLoRDs or my derivative of his. As for the 3.0 boot.img issues that is being looked into. This has been mentioned in the 3.0 thread and there is an issue open on my github profile for the offending repo.

sounds like you have flashed a rom that is not compatable with your kernel. You may have to flash the correct kernel.

Also, the rom you flashed may be for unlocked bootloaders and you havent unlocked yours yet (Just a guess, but I bet you havent).

Flash this to get back to stock
