when i go to 'restore', it doesn't find my nandroids. does anyone know why?

edit: heh probably because they're cwm backups...whoops lol
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
TWRP stores it's backups in a different folder and is incompatible with CWM backups (and the other way around) last time I checked.
[Defy Android Development] Dirk64:
Can confirm, works well for me with Maniacs Nightly 2nd April but do not try with Miui GB Rom, it won't work. Have to flash my other Defy next morning.

Sent from my Defy...
[Defy Android Development] Anhell:
something i should know before flashing ?? like multiboot compatibily ??

thanks

EDIT: why don´t you people read a little more before asking, lol. Already know the last multiboot works for TrWP :)

EDIT2: well i get the following error, installed on stable recovery, then reboot and freezw in MIUI logo (because i have pikachu as main rom), if i enter in recovery and try to enter in 2nd boot or 2ndinit, it says the following:

E:Error in /system/bootmenu/script/recovery_stable.sh

(result: no such file or directory)
[Defy Android Development] chachoi:
it worked alright

I guess this doesn't have the option to install roms in custom or stable recovery like the old fashioned normal recovery yet?
[Defy Android Development] Co5min:
Works just fine on my CM9 froyo kernel. All the options are there. Great work, Eppy ! Thanks.

I think it would be great if we can have both CWM and TWRP on defy.

How to revert to ordinary recovery for CM 9?

Wysłane z mojego MB525 za pomocą Tapatalk
[Defy Android Development] Co5min:
The only drawback here is that I still have to go manually into recovery-stable recovery to access TWRP, therefore volume button is not entirely avoided.
[Defy Android Development] djc151084:
From inside cm9 hold power to turn off, then reeboot into recovery and it goes straight there ;-)

hey guys how to unistall this? I can't access latest recovery. I would like to flash another rom to my sd card. Im using multi boot

edit:solved, works like multi-boot, if you update the system where you installed it (in my case stable recovery) it will not work and you have to flash the twrp zip file again. I can access the old fashioned recovery again
[Defy Android Development] Co5min:
That was the first thing I tried after I flashed TWRP and didn`t work. On the second attempt worked, so it`s all fine now. Thanks.

That is what I meant.

Why you getting so worked up? I found this at night when I was sleepy, got excited, downloaded it used it, got stuck at the boot logo and went to sleep. Is it such a huge problem to post it here?

besides, WIUI ics does contain most of CM9 stuff in it.

[Defy Android Development] bharaththeunique:
I can still use my cwm made backups thru twrp rt??????
[Defy Android Development] Co5min:
Silly question maybe, but: is there any way to have TWRP as default CWM regardless how many ROMs a install/change ? I`ve flashed this morning the latest Eppy`s release and had to flash again TWRP, as well. Just figured that volume button is still to be abused when upgrading a ROM. Thanks.
[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
I'm sure TWRP will eventually be added by default... in the mean time, when you flash a new rom, just include the TWRP zip as one of the zips to be flashed. That way, when you reboot, TWRP will still be there and your power and volume buttons will be spared.

For those who like to rename the backup, it is found in sdcard\TWRP\BACKUPS\0000000000000000\ and is in a different format to the CWM backup (not sure if this has been said yet?)
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
yes, the 0000000000000000 is our serial (shown in /proc/cpuinfo) moto booloader/kernel missing feature %) but look like common to most omap kernels

There is a new system for addons backups... but i just fixed it in our ics roms... (its not implemented yet in cm7)

you can see example in the latest gapps.zip or in /system/addon.d

these files are used during system upgrades to keep system files
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
Yes, it's quite common. When I had TWRP installed on my Kindle Fire (before switching to CWM) all backups were also stored under TWRP\BACKUPS\0000000000000000
[Defy Android Development] baxtandroid:
what replacement ?

Does it replace the CWM recovery, or the stock Motorola one ? :)
[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
It replaces CWM Stable Recovery, you can still access CWM Custom Recovery and Stock Recovery.
[Defy Android Development] UncleDan:
Great! Backup is even too fast... are we sure it works? :D
[Defy Android Development] joydeep1985:
I'm yet not sure the backup works properly yet . i tried to restore data but none of my contacts got restored . Its likely that contacts are stored in data.img only on Nand partition AFAIK . I might be wrong
[Defy Android Development] UncleDan:
Backup seems to behave strangely... same options different times and results.

For debug: here what I got trying to backup: always all partitions, compression enabled, md5 enabled.

If someone has an idea or if it can be useful... I will stick to nandroid on CWM for backup at the moment.

[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
Thanks... I really should have done this... ended up flashing, rooting and installing 2ndinit on froyo twice the restoring WIUI which was the only cwm backup I had. I have 2 ICS backups made with TWRP.

I must admit I'm a bit nervous to install TWRP again on the WIUI recovery, as the last time it just deleted the cwm recovery completely.

I guess I should do a wipe and install an ICS zip, the install TWRP, then restore my ICS backup...

...or I could just push the files with adb

2. Issues in backups are knows . CWM backups arent compatiable yet with TWRP backups . I couldnt restore it .

3. It was said that i can access custom recovery although it rewrites stable recovery . But i got an error while i tried flash through Custom recovery . Gave an error : /system cannot be mounted . however the same thing which being curious I tried to flash throug TWRP it flashed alright .

[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
Compressed Backups on 2.1.1

There's something a little odd going on with the backups.

I checked the "compress backup" box and performed a full backup, it was done in a few seconds... too fast.

Then I unchecked the "compress backup" box and it took the correct time to make the backup, but it appeared to be making two of each backups.

When I looked at the files created with a file manager, there were indeed 2 backup folders, but the files in the first one (compressed) were created after the 2nd one. The folder size of the compressed backup is marginally smaller as only the system file was compressed.

So, it appears as if TWRP gave the "success" indication a bit prematurely while doing the first compressed backup.

EDIT1: I checked out the new baseband selector in CM7 then came back to CM9, restoring the uncompressed backup, worked perfectly.

EDIT2: Performed another compressed backup, took much longer this time (233 sec for system) and all 7 files were created properly and the sizes were significantly reduced.

Conclusion: the first dodgy compressed backup was a glitch - not easily repeatable.
[Defy Android Development] joydeep1985:
what r u supposed 2 mean by not easy repeat ????:confused:
[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
It doesn't happen repeatedly, in other words, sometimes it glitches, sometimes its OK. As long as it takes a while, the backup will be OK. A full compressed backup took 10 minutes.

hi mate i'd tried to install TWRP on my defy but it does'nt work.

When i try to boot my phone into recovery it says something like its not available, then i try to reboot the phone and it stuck in red"M" logo.. I try to flash full sbf to fix this but it stuck in android logo...

Please help me find another way to fix my device;)
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
Is it the android with the exclamation mark? Then press both volume buttons (if you are on Gingerbread) or the power button (if you are on Froyo) for the menu to appear, then do a data wipe and cache wipe and reboot, that should fix it :)
[Defy Android Development] trixhammerbord:
it is'nt the android logo with exclamation, its the "android" logo itself, the original boot logo after the red"M" ... Im stuck with it

Anyway i did'nt try your steps yet... Gonna try it after work

Any other way?:confused:
[Defy Android Development] adamo3957:
Hop over the the general thread and check the beginners guides, your stuck in a boot loop

Press and hold volume - when you turn the phone on and keep it held, you will see an android with an exclaimtion mark in a triangle the let go of volume -

Now press volume down and you will get the menu, navigate to factory reset and select with power button, once its done reboot and it will take time but it will boot

teamwork makes the dream work

Same problem on cm9.
[Defy Android Development] dabl8:
I'm in trouble here: same as other people, I can't boot any recovery nor cyanogenmod, nor get adb to work. Should I boot into stock recovery? I am not too familiar with the Defy: would I have to go into stock recovery to use adb? I used 2.1.1 from the twrp website which has a different md5 to the one posted on this thread.

Sorry, but factory reset in stock recovery does not work. I'm waiting 10 minutes and all I can see is the Google logo with Andy and a Motorola logo in the "o's"
[Defy Android Development] notes1:
Custom and Stock recovery were not working so I installed above package.

it didn't help.

when I go to factory reset as per your instructions

"E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command

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

hit YES anyway, then:

E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log

So I then I cant even get into bootmenu anymore,

so I get into basic bootloader, flash an SBF via RSDlite.

It said "PASS" but didnt boot.

Now I can't even get into bootloader, to flash another SBF, and the only response from my phone is the charging led.

Whats my next step?

I know I almost certainly messed up something. Could I push a new 2ndinit onto it somehow? I'm out of my depth.

EDIT: Possibly fully flat battery now, as charging light isnt on- maybe it wasn't charging from USB? Will I have to Macguyver it?
[Defy Android Development] Anhell:
i don't know if it was asked before, i've been reading these post from time to time,i have a little question.
