I think this needs to be addressed, this would realy prevent burn in, I already experienced this on my old GNEX luckily I purchased a new one and know how to prevent it. But still, sometimes when I flash and I just got from work, I can't help and fall asleep.

Please TS, if there is something to address this, please include it on the next build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Someone with G+ should drop koush a line regarding that screen off feature idea and the bug in the default format menu, as he rarely if ever checks these threads.

The screen off would make the most sense as a menu option since that way we have to highlight it and if we press power to turn it back on the only risk is triggering screen off again. This will be so helpful when I'm adb pulling my sdcard down for a backup. :good:

New release if you want :o

recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.1.5-maguro.img
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gianton:
Is this official or unofficial nightly?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slukk:
This is official :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gianton:
Great was running 6.0.1.5 nightly with no bugs, will be fastbooting it asap.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
No. That's not official. It's hosted on blogspot, the newest on http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager is still 6.0.1.0, and there are no new commits on the GitHub. So that's exactly the same as the one I posted a page back.

Please note that once you have it there is no point in building a new one unless there has been a new commit on GitHub, so don't get neurotic about higher "build" numbers. They're meaningless without a code change.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gianton:
OK thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slukk:
Are you old man?

Check this: http://builder.clockworkmod.com/

The newest official version is 6.0.1.5 :cowboy:

Edit:

Github: Change the branch to jellybean
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Are you blind? I used builder to make the nightlies and follow the github to make the changelog. These are unofficial. They are not official until they come from http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager/ since those are builds koush has made and vetted himself.

Please read the thread next time.

I thought this recovery was supposed to decrease the time of backups. I made another backup today and it took me over ten minutes. Can anyone shed some light?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
How long is your backup?

Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3rdstring:
If you use the default (blob) backup subsequent backups (of the same ROM) should be noticeably quicker. If you use the TAR backup it might be a little quicker than previous versions, but not a lot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tommy_FIN:
Is it okay to delete the blobs folder if I'm using the tar backup?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3rdstring:
Yes, there is no need for the blobs folder if you are using the TAR format.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrasquinho:
Yes, for sure. I did it myself
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
It's been like clockwork for me since 6.0.1.2, roughly 50% of the time I boot to SOD when I select boot to recovery, requiring a battery pull. No such issue with TWRP. Have tried every new version since, but get the same behaviour.

Nothing out of the ordinary, Jellybro +/- Trinity kernel.

Can't get a kmesg under that scenario, so maybe next time I try the newest version of CWM I'll logcat the process.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] harrytorta:
Thanks for this...tried the fastboot way but some how it didn't stick after reboot but this one did.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] obsanity:
Actually not necessarily. From what I understand the backup storage acts like a database system and anything which is the same does not get duplicated. So between aokp or sense ROMs there may be differences but there is still a lot of same android files between different ROMs no matter what kind.

So you see nothing Koush makes is useless. Besides if it was wasn't for him you wouldn't be doing a lot of things you're doing to your phone right now :)

Hi, guyz.

thanks for the new CWM :) does it support full device encryption?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] provolinoo:
Same here, consindering both recovieries do same stuff, the main reason I switched to TWRP is the interface.

Since we are talking about a new major release 6.x I do hope it will come with a fresh new layout more touch-friendly :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] motu90:
From what I understand (also from other backup solutions in the IT):

There's a base where several file patterns are stored, like the database in an archive (i. e. zip, rar). When a new backup is created, a bunch of pointers into the database are put together. The backups are much smaller, because they only consists of pointers and a few additional files. The base is much bigger and neccesary for backup and restore.

Think of Android and it's code, there are many common "patterns", also between MIUI and AOKP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] decalex:
Thx for posting this.

wow. 2nd backup listed is with Cwm 6.0, just to see side-by-side.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChanceOfChange:
i made backup to my JB and the restore is succes, but stacks on boot...wtf?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] obtained:
I made a backup then flashed a nav bar mod. Booted up to nav bar not working for my rom, oh well. So then I restored, booted up to the same thing. I had to reflash the rom to fix it. Decided to go back to an earlier version of cwmr. I'll try again when it's not a test build anymore.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
Based on the picture alone I would assume the backup doesn't work. 533M down to 390K for data... :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tayutama:
That or it's because of the incremental backup it does so it only backup what has changed since last backup.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Hmm very odd CMNein.. Definitely not seeing that here with my setup. Have you tried fully wiping and starting from scratch? I don't know how that would interfere with recovery but just taking a shot in the dark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
That's one thing I haven't done, it's worth a shot however.

Truth be told I'm loathe to fully wipe unless I absolutely have to since I don't jump ROMs and when I do I can usually determine if I feel like going through a fresh set up process all over again fairly quickly, maybe this is one of those times :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EliasKir:
Hi everyone. Can someone tell me how to copy the "clockwork" folder from the phone to my pc? I get a "not responding" message. If i just wait would it be done eventually?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gianton:
Instead of .dup you have to choose .tar as backup format.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EliasKir:
How can i choose that option? Through Rom Manager? I didn't find it in the free version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gianton:
You have to enter in recovery mode manually, it's under backup and restore settings/backup format.

Try 6.0.1.1+ if you want to switch back to tars (like in CWM 5.x), makes it so you're only pulling 6 files instead of 13000. :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bartolinio:
"Sideload started"

What's this? how come out of this?

possible without removing the battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
You must have tapped the sideload option. It's new so currently there's no simple way out without a battery pull, or there may never be, kind of like Download Mode in ODIN. Your options are to plug in to a computer and make a failed adb sideload command or battery pull.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bartolinio:
These are located in the wrong place, because you can easily go wrong when choosing a standard flash option, it should be in the advanced ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Yeah, you're probably right. Fire koush a G+ msg or a tweet if you use either. Also mention we'd like an option to turn off the screen, and that the default format submenu is cosmetically broken. The more people that pass these on to him the more likely they are to get done. :):good:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Yup. 6.0.1.0 is still the latest for the GN on the official site, and there are no new commits since 6.0.1.5 so the one from the toolkit is exactly the same as the build I posted 2 weeks back.

I took it a step further than a wipe and flashed the stock images and starting completely from scratch. Biggest pain was sitting there and adb pulling my recovery folders, TiBU folder, and all my sdcard data that I wanted to keep.

Fully up and running again, so hopefully this cures it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] k3vink3vin:
I personally prefer 6.0.1.4 over 6.0.1.5 because I don't need the new sideload function.

I once accidentally tapped on it (I have the touch version) and it seems to me that the only way to go back requires a battery pull.

For anyone else that's looking to update their CWM I just zipped this up real quick:

I went with this one because of members reporting 6.0.1.5 was giving them issues. I would rather not take that chance.

Just tested and made sure 6.0.1.4 worked as it should. Everything works without a hitch.

Hey guys. Thanks for the post. I wanted to ask a question though and I don't know if you guys can help. I've been trying ton figure out where my y memory went last night because u knew I couldn't have used 16 gug do I used disk manager and found out that my blobs folder alone is running at 3.53 gigs. I'm in the cm10 nightly but I can figure out why so much information is stored. Reading through the thread alot of users said to just wipe the directory... But I'm unsure how to. I really don't want to render my backups moot. I've got my original tochwiz plus 4-5 cm10 back ups. Can you guys help?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
That's why it's so big. You've got backups from completely different OSs. Completely expected. 5 backups would normally be over 5gb and you've got them in 3.5gb. If you have removed a backup manually and want to purge unnecessary files from blobs then you can go and free unused space or whatever the option's called. It will also do that automatically the next time you make a new backup, so you don't have to worry about it if you don't want.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rage913:
So basically if I go into my cmw folder just copy all my nandroids to say my usb and just keep my latest nightly nandroid that'll clear up all that space? I do appreciate it. I was trying to figure out what was jacking my memory. Lol.

I still feel like there is more still taking it though. Could you check these out for me and see what else might be taking data? Sorry that this might be a little irrelevant I'm just trying to figure out how I can have around 8 gigs vanish :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
copying your dup based nandroids (20mb each) is useless without the blobs folder. if you want to keep/move backups off your device then you should just switch back to tar format.

by those pics it looks like it's all cwm (3.5gb), tibu (1gb) and saved app data (likely from large games to make 800mb).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rage913:
Yeah. I have a few large games like bombshells and dead trigger. Well ****. Lol. I guess I'll just have to make a copy of the whole folder and just stick it on my personal usb.

1st question. You said that the nandroid is pointless without the blobs. How do I know which file/folders I need to keep for a specific rom?

2nd question. After I've made the copy to my usb. What do I do from there . Sorry. Just trying to get my bases covered and not brick the **** out of my phone. :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
1) you don't. all or nothing. which is why I suggest switching back to tar from now on since it's easier if you don't plan to just leave them on your phone.

2) once you've got it all copied that's it, remove the backup directories you don't want and use the free unused space option in cwm. again I recommend switching to tar from now on, so that when you move stuff back it just overwrites and you don't run into any problems with newer backups changing your blob folder.

blobs were made for those who want to keep all their backups on their phone to save space. if that's not what you want then the old tar format is what you should be using.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rage913:
Sorry. You lost me a bit. I would like to keep my backups on my phone but probably on my external. I run into the issue that my external is only a 4 gig scan drive so I need to get a larger one. (should have done that a while ago) but that's irrelevant. So now I suppose I'll have to keep them on my usb.

Now when you say to use the old tar I get lost. Should I compress the whole clockworkmod directory to a tar file? Then after that should I need to do a restore would I have to Odin the rar? Or what. Sorry I keep asking questions. Just trying to learn. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
You need to read the OP for info on the new (6.x) dup nandroid format (short for duplicate) which is the default. Go to Backup/Restore in CWM and you'll see you can change it to tar, which was the default pre-6.x.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rage913:
Like this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
No. not at all. it's an option in CWM like I said. Go read the OP. I'm reaching my reexplanation limits...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rage913:
Lol sorry posted that before your post showed up. Like I said I appreciate it. I shall read once again!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mugey:
Wrong thread. Haha
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dirtygoldfish:
Read the OP. tar was the old format, dup is the new one, everything else should be explained in the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rage913:
Well I got a new larger micro sim. Moved the files over from my internal to my external. It actually grew to about 7 gigs but it's fine for now. Now when I make a back up of a rom I should go through cwm instead of rom manager. I belive that rom manager will make the back up get stored onto the internal and if I use cwm I can designate the back up to my external instead correct?

The part that throws me is "simply delete the backup directory, then the next time you run a back up it will show freeing space" I don't know which part of the directory I should delete if at all?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
From that same paragraph in the OP:

"First, never delete the blobs directory."

So that leaves the dated subdirectories. Delete whichever ones of those you don't want on your device.
