Just FYI, you can also use the capacitive touch buttons in CWM (this is for the Nexus S): Return button returns to prev menu, Menu button marches down the list (like Vol), Search button executes (like Power), Home button goes to Main menu... Anyway, I like TWRP touch buttons interface too. One thing is selecting through the directory tree with small fonts and my fat fingers is kinda hard :).
[Nexus S Android Development] ZiggSVO:
I second the small font issue...lol
[Nexus S Android Development] Petarsson:
so, just to be sure: this is working for nexus s (especially i9023 in my case :D) and not only for 4G? i dunno if this concerns the recovery in any way...:rolleyes:
[Nexus S Android Development] jojje_2009:
Tried the touchversion last night, but couldn´t get it to work.

Installs fine and I can press the buttons, but somehow when I try to flash a file nothing happens.

If I minimize the "buttons" so that I can see the log I can see an error stating that the SD-Card can´t be mounted or somthing like that... I can, however, browse the folders on the SD-Card, but can´t see the files inside. If the zip file is in the root of the SD card, I can select it, but then the errormessage is shown in the log.

Is this recovery compatible with an backup made with CWR? Can I "cross" between the recoverys?
[Nexus S Android Development] ruud:
also working fine for nexus i9020T, realy nice but indeed small fonts
[Nexus S Android Development] Borky_16:

[Nexus S Android Development] mixtapes08:
This is awesome i really like the efs back up option. A life saver..

[Nexus S Android Development] Greenthy:
Any thing you need to be aware of when using this instead of Clockwork ?
[Nexus S Android Development] shockem:
nothing. Just go ahead and use it you'll love it:)
[Nexus S Android Development] Ibn Saeed:
Is it possible to go back to Clockwork after trying out TWRP ?
[Nexus S Android Development] krarvind:
yes, i just tried. you need to fastboot CWM recovery image or have a zip file which can be flashed in TWRP recovery.
[Nexus S Android Development] BigD18t:
So will this flash rom made for cwm ? and can it use cwm backups ?
[TouchPad General] cu_shane:
I setup my touchpad to dual boot webOS or CynogenMod7. Now I've replaced CM7 with MIUI. And regardless, 'cynogenmod' and 'miui' are Greek to my wife. Is there a way that I can change the 'cynogenmod' menu option in moboot so that it says 'Android' instead?
[TouchPad General] quarlow:
I don't know about changing the labels, but I know the package called cyboot in preware will let you change the default and timeout.
[TouchPad General] darkassain:
using either webos (xecutah) or android (term emulator) mount (boot partition is partition 13 in dev/block/ in android) or remount ( webos using xterm the command is mount -o remount,rw /boot)

once you mounted boot with rw privs just rename uImage extension (uImage.cyanogenmod to uImage.Android) then unmount (using umount) or remount ro (mount -o remount,ro /boot)

moboot will the show the differences,just remember to change your moboot.default to whatever name you chose)
[TouchPad General] klownin816:
Thanks!!! This helped me out a ton!
[TouchPad General] ViciousXUSMC:
Tagging this one for later, I will be doing the same.

In my case just for myself as I like to customize the device a bit more than most people probably care about.
[TouchPad General] quarlow:
Know this is an old thread, but I thought I could mention you can change the labels easily in webOS, instead of with terminal commands in android. Using Internalz Pro (preware package) with master mode enabled you can just rename them. Navigate to /boot/ and rename the file extension. Wit TWRP and a solid CM9 build I went to revisit this, and thought I would share.
[TouchPad General] ZedZardoz:
Be Advised: if you use CyBoot Preware to set the next boot option to Andriod, CM9 a0 and a0.5 doesn't clear the /Boot/moboot.next file on sucsessful launch. The result is you cannot get MoBoot options back as it keeps going straight to CM9.

In one case, reinstall of MoBoot from ACMEinstaller2 couldn't clear the file either.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcm8:
Hey all:

While I consider myself quite technologically inclined, it appears that what I think and what reality is are quite different things. Thus, I look for advice from this wonderfully adept community (I've surfed around quite a bit, but I've never had to ask anything).

Here are my phone's specs:

Model: i9020A

Carrier: Koodo

The short story:

because, currently, there's only ICS for the GSM version of the phone, I thought I'd try flashing the GSM version of ICS onto my phone, then load the radio settings for my phone type so that it would work. It didn't. I was able to load ICS, and it worked great; the radio settings for the i9020A, however, didn't load up. As a result, I tried to reload the stock 2.3.6 onto the phone, and I seemed to have failed miserably.

I'm now at the following point:

Normal boot: only loads to the Google screen (with the padlock)

Fastboot Mode: here's the information.

Product Name - HERRING

HW Version - REV 16

Bootloader Version: I9020XXKL1

Baseband Version: I9020XXKI1

Carrier Info: ATT

Serial Number: 3935CEB394BE00EC

Lock State: Unlocked

When I select "Recovery," it briefly goes to the Google screen (with the unlocked padlock at the bottom), then loads into ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.0.0

Here are the below options:

- reboot system now

- apply update from sdcard

- wipe data/factory reset

- wipe cache partition

- install zip from sd card

- backup and restore

- mounts and storage

- advanced

- GO BACK

Below these options is the following information:

ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.0.0

E: Can't find misc

E: failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E: Can't find misc

E: failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"

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

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

E: failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"

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

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

E: Can't find misc

E: failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"

Essentially, what I am asking is if there is anyway to load the original 2.3.6 for the i9020A on here. If I'm able, then I'll patiently wait for the ICS OTA.

Any help that anyone can provide would be immensely appreciated. If there's any other information I can provide, such as pictures, I'd be more than happy to provide that.

Thanks so much.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehgeekguy:
Do you have a backup that you can restore? If not, grab the 2.3.6 update from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1063664 and try a flesh install.

You should also flash a new radio, I didn't have any luck with the KI1 radio on my i9020a.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeCH-Guruz:
Not saying this will help at all but have you tried the latest version of clockwork mod your version seems to be very old. Try this one and see if it helps Clockwork 5.0.2.3
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcm8:
Thanks a ton for this. I'm a bit of a noob with this, so any other information, i.e., how to flash it properly, would be super helpful.

Again, thanks a bunch for the reply!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeCH-Guruz:
Download this LINK put it on your internal sd card boot up into recovery then do a full wipe in clockwork mod and flash the ROM it contains recovery, radio and bootloader. So you will be back to stock and can follow one of the guides on here to get back onto which every rom you choose.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcm8:
Will do.

Thanks again!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcm8:
Okay, so I've downloaded the file, then put it onto the sd card.

I then boot into Fastboot Mode, then go to Recovery. I do the following here:

- wipe data/factory reset, then "Yes - delete all user data". It says the following:

-- Wiping data. . .

Formatting /data. . .

Formatting /cache. . .

E: format_volume: no MTD partition "cache"

Formatting /sd-ext. . .

Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure. . .

Data wipe complete.

E: failed to find "cache" partition mount at "/cache"

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

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

E: failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"

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

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

E: can't find misc

E: failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"

I then went into "advance" and "Wipe Dalvik Cache" (which works)

I also did "wipe cache partition," and it says the following:

-- Wiping cache

Formatting /cache

E: format_volume: no MTD partition "cache"

Cache wipe complete.

E: failed to find "cache" partition mount at "/cache"

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

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

E: failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"

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

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

E: can't find misc

E: failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"

I then went to "install zip from sd card," then "choose zip from sd card," then chose the file that you LINKED to (0b9c8148de0d.signed-sojua-ota-189904.0b9c814)

It says:

-- installing <the above file name>

E: can't find misc

Finding update package

Opening update package

Installing update. . .

then there's a bar, which never fills; it then goes to the following text:

assert failed: write_raw_image ("/tmp/boot.img","boot")

E: Error in /sdcard/<the file name from above>

(Status 7)

Installation aborted.

I'm pretty stuck. Anything else you might have would be fantastic!

Thanks again.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcm8:
Yeah, I tried flashing the original 2.3.6 from that page, but there's no luck . . . :S

Thanks for the reply, though! Do you recommend anything else?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehgeekguy:
What do you mean "no luck"? What error did you get? Did you get the right version?

If you're on a i9020A you should be using this one - http://goo.gl/nN0Zp (Official, signed, can flash with ClockworkMod or stock recovery. Contains recovery, radio and bootloader.)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeCH-Guruz:
Could be wrong but that looks like your partition tables got messed up at some point.

EDIT you could also try looking on here might be helpful LINK

EDIT X2 Other people have screwed up their partition tables and have fixed it using this guide LINK
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d.chatten:
tehgeekguy is right, if your model number is I9020A then it should work using the rom he linked, did you install Clockwork 5.0.2.3 before trying to install the stock 2.3.6 rom, if not then please try.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcm8:
Yeah, that's the one I tried, but I received the same error message as before:

-- installing <the above file name>

E: can't find misc

Finding update package

Opening update package

Installing update. . .

then there's a bar, which never fills; it then goes to the following text:

assert failed: write_raw_image ("/tmp/boot.img","boot")

E: Error in /sdcard/<the file name from above>

(Status 7)

Installation aborted.

I'm going to try it one more time to see if I can't get it working. I have a feeling my partitions may have been messed up . . .

Thanks for the reply.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcm8:
Yeah, I'll be sure to try this right away.

Thanks a ton.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcm8:
I'll definitely take a look at this. Thank a bunch!:)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d.chatten:
The partitions is probably right, have you tried with the stock recovery instead of clockwork, worth a try.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcm8:
So, I went to the page and downloaded the following file:

"Option for no confirmation at all. Just flash in recovery.

signed-noconfirm.zip"

I put this onto the sd card, then attempted to install. This is what I received:

"-- Installing: /sdcard/signed-noconfirm.zip

E: Can't find misc

Finding update package . . .

Opening update package . . .

Installing update . . .

Installing .no_confirm

use at your own risk!!

reboot recovery and enjoy!

Install from sdcard complete"

Thus, it seemed to work pretty well. I thus rebooted recovery, but ClockworkMod is still showing that it's version V3.0.0.0.

Should I be flashing one of the other options on that page? If so, which one? And would you, by chance, have a detailed explanation as to how to go about doing that?

Thanks so much. I'm starting to feel like I won't be getting anywhere . . . :(. The responses have been awesome, though, everyone. I really appreciate it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d.chatten:
You have been trying to install a switch to turn off confirmations, to get Clockwork 5.0.2.3 installed you will need to use the same method as when you installed Clockwork 3.0.0.0 but use this image > 5023-cyan.img.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcm8:
Makes a lot of sense. I'll try that.

Thanks.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcm8:
Okay, so I flashed Clockwork 5.0.2.3, then I flashed the correct i9020A package. It worked beautifully.

Thanks a ton, everyone, for all your help. This is great! :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d.chatten:
Clad it worked for you.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tehgeekguy:
Yeah, glad you finally got it all working :)

Can the Fascinate be rooted by loading a single executable file in the phone that roots the phone? Sorry if this is an old question, I appreciate all the hard work developers put into, hacks, roms, kernels, etc. Not easy for me to follow.

Hi Guys,

I have been looking for some permanent space to upload ROM / Kernels / Zip files / Themes etc

After a long look for free space, i finally found a place which has an Android APP and web access to upload and share files, and it is actually FREE not a trial or anything.

For those who are interested, here is a link:

http://www.idrive.com/?uid=L8J9K6I6M1

The Android application is quite good:

IDrive Lite

IDrive Lite is an application that lets you backup all contacts on your phone to an online account and retrieve the same at the click of a button; so you always have your contacts backed up online. Use the Locate feature, to view the location of your contacts and have other contacts view your current location.

&

IDrive (Online Backup)

IDrive (Online Backup) app lets you access your IDrive account on your Android Phone.

Log in with your existing IDrive credentials to:

- View data backed up to your IDrive account

- Share files/folders with your friends and contacts

- Search for files/folders

- View backed up files such as images, documents etc on your Android Phone

I am not affiliated with this app or company in anyway. I just thought i would share it for those who are looking for some FREE internet storage space, so that the flow of apps/roms/kernels/zips/themes etc etc can flow freely and space is accessible by more people.

Cheers and Enjoy !!!

Hi all,

I notice when I change my DPI to 240, Google Music switches to its tablet interface. It's obviously awful on a phone. Is there any way to manually switch which interface Google Music is using?

Either that or somehow spoof a specific app into thinking the DPI setting is 320?

Thanks,

I have noticed the same thing on my gs2 though I am switching from 240 to 182. Your post is the only I've found about the issue and it's driving me crazy. If anyone has ideas where to even look in the apk to adjust this it would be extremely appreciated.

I've noticed a few problems from it. Music Playerpro has some display issues, and the Youtube app crashes as soon as I open it. Both work fine with the native DPI.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveRichardson:
Always hesitant to start a thread (especially one that could come off to imply impatience), but I did want to kind of take the temperature on this.

Also, I'm using an unactivated CDMA Desire (an old US Cellular phone I bought off a friend) as an 'Android iPod-touch.'

Since I don't connect to cell towers at all, can I be agnostic when choosing CDMA vs. GSM specific ROMS? Or will my phone actually notice and choke if I try to run a rom built for a GSM device?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thezombiehunter:
hopefully

The biggest issue right now is the kernel, since htc does not have the cdma desire source code available that i know of... So until someone who knows what they are doing makes one or i can find out how to compile one myself it looks like we are stuck.

Im not an expert but the gsm rom on a cdma phone sounds like a bad idea and i would expect it to work as well as the "cdma rom" in the gsm desire ics thread (meaning booting to the white htc screen and no farther)

Is there anyway to change the group of file types that are listed in the native Library app?

I decrypted Library.apk and went through all the XML code but couldn't find anything useful.. Any ideas?
