The touch version downloads as an .NDIF file, but I renamed it and it flashed flawlessly.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jpradley:
Even after flashing CWM's touch recovery 6.0.0.0 for vivow and putting it through its paces, ROM Manager still claims that 5.0.2.0 is the latest and allegedly the installed version.

I'd imagine that an update for ROM Manager is surely in the cards. Patience.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] natemup:
Though my install was successful, when I ran a NANDROID backup, it appeared to freeze on "backing up data...", so I battery-pulled and afterwards it acted like it completed and can be restored. I probably won't test that option...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] beepFTW:
I tried this. And the fastest Nandroid backups for me was from the latest TWRP. 153 sec! this took like ~400. Although I dont remember the exact number.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dirtsky:
Got this installed. Not bad but not to crazy about the huge a$$ font. But, I know its for the touch interface. I might try the non touch later.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jellybellys:
The huge buttons if for the touch interface so your fat finger hits the right button. It's like that in all the CWM touch recoveries. As for the non touch recovery, I heard from another user at RootzWiki that the power button ma not work. If it doesn't work for you, let me know and I will look into the problem.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jellybellys:
Yes, open a terminal emulator on your phone then get root access:

su

After that, cd to the location of the .img file: (i.e. if it was on the root of the sd card then...)

cd /sdcard/

Finally, flash the image to the recovery partition:

dd if=recovery-clockwork-6.0.0.0-touch-vivow-jellybellys.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21

Then exit the terminal emulator and reboot.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] T3CH9ICIAN:
Thanks for this it worked perfect through the terminal emulator. I have a laptop in front of me but wanted to try it and like a charm running 6.0.0.0.

Is this recommended? I currently have the 5.0.2 CWR and everything is fine with it. Should I upgrade? Will my old backups work with the new CWR? And will I experience any bugs or glitches, cause the current one is bug/glitch free for me.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
I have the same question.

Is this a meant-for-devs RC, or a full-on version publication?

If so, when will it be available via standard channels (such as ROM Manager)?

Sounds great!

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RRF12:
Does the file need renamed , I tried threw adb an ternimal to flash an no luck.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jpradley:
I find the easiest installation is using Droid Explorer (a free Windows program), one of whose options is flashing a Recoveryi image..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jellybellys:
You should be upgrading from 5.0.2.0 if you have not yet. Koush has not updated CWM for the Incredible 2 for a long time and the latest "official" version is 5.0.2.0. 6.0.0.0 should be bug-free, but let me know if it isn't, as I did not get much of a chance to test my builds. (I used to have an Inc 2, but I sold it and bought a gnex. I just quickly borrowed a friend's inc 2 to test these)

This is made for everyone! I don't think it'll ever make the "official" ROM manager channel. Koush hasn't updated the Inc 2 builds since 5.0.2.0.

I don't quite understand your question, but you don't need to use adb to flash this or rename it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
I'm a noob when it comes to flashing the phone from a pc, so this info made the process 'monkey-see-monkey-do' easy for me! Thanks!

Well, it's made for everyone who understands how to get it on their phone... which I find a bit unfamiliar.

But, Huzzah! It is done (on my test phone, at least).

I tried first flashing the non-touch version, but that would only give me the main UI index and any selection from that would blank the screen (except for the CW icon in the center). Pressing the power button returned me to the UI index, but I couldn't navigate any further than that. Had to pull the battery in order to get back to the OS. Not sure why the phone got so finicky with it- perhaps low space on the SD card. I cleaned up the card a bit, reverted to a backup from a couple days ago, then flashed the touch version from the terminal emulator, which then worked.

As stated above, ROM Manager still reports the installed recovery is 5.0.2.0.

Since I've got two of the same phones on hand (well, one is the evil red color...) I figured I'd do a drag race between 5.0.2.0 and 6.0.0.0 on a backup.

Results- 1:30 vs. 4:00

Very sexy touchy stuff and speedy, too!

Thanks very much for these efforts! They make having this phone a lot of fun!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RRF12:
Installed an made backup very nice thanks.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] catnapped:
Sadly, the same for me as well. No real improvement in speed (then again, maybe too much installed being the reason?)

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
Tried downloading the non-touch and reflashing it.

Same story- text UI gives first main menu, but selecting any item does nothing but give a screen with the CWM icon.

No other actions. Pwr button again reverts to main menu, but you can't do anything from there...

Actually not precisely true... it did reboot for me after a few tries.

Anyone else have issues or good luck with the standard version?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jellybellys:
Someone told me about that issue on RootzWiki earlier. Looking into it right now.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jellybellys:
Updated to 6.0.0.1. Still can't get the non-touch version to work.

If you are debating updating or not from 6.0.0.0, it's not super crucial. From all I can tell, it's just a new background that looks really sexy. Nandroids might also be a bit faster.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
Forgive my simple-tude-

I'd like to not have to type that in each time I flash. Is it possible to run the flash from a script?

I've written *very* simple scripts (1 line commands, basically) but this is a bit more than I've dealt with.

I assume I can't use the same code as goes into the terminal emulator prompt, such as 'cd /sdcard/', so even telling the script where to look for the new file is a mystery to me.

In my imagination, I would edit the script to point at any further update files, thus limiting the keyboarding (and braining) required to get the new file installed.

Sorry for putting up a noob-and-slightly-off-topic question! I'd like to learn a bit more than I know. I hope it's not offensive to ask here.

I really appreciate the work you've put into getting these recoveries together!

edit:

lol

it's really a lot simpler than I thought it would be-

I wrote out a script same as I would have entered in terminal, gave it su powers, and it worked fine.

Nevermind me, move along, nothing to see here...

Make sure ROM manager or any other apps aren't changing your recovery. If there is a recovery.img file located at /system, then replace that with my recovery.

The way cwm 6 works is that if two backups share some of the same files, they aren't backed up again. So new backups should take less time.

When you first get into recovery:

Installing a .zip from the SD Card:

Selecting a .zip:

Mounts and Storage:

Also:

You can use the 'Home' softkey (if you memorized where it is) to snap to the bottom.

You can use the 'Menu' softkey (if you memorized where it is) to scroll down one option at a time.

You can use the 'Back' softkey (if you memorized where it is) to go back.

You can use the 'Search' softkey (if you memorized where it is) to select an option.

You can also use the volume rockers to go up and down.

And use the screen lock/power button to select.

Touch Version:

http://goo.im/devs/jellybellys/vivow...ellybellys.img

Non-Touch Version:

http://goo.im/devs/jellybellys/vivow...ellybellys.img

How to install:

1. Reboot into bootloader

2. Install with the following command:

Touch Version:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.0.0-touch-vivow-jellybellys.img

Non-Touch Version:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.0.0-vivow-jellybellys.img

-------------

if you want to try first how this recovery run on your phone just try this command...

1. Reboot into bootloader

2. fastboot boot recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.0.0-touch-vivow-jellybellys.img

replace the red color with the name of the recovery.img file that you want to try,

this will force your phone to boot using the specified recovery image file... after you play with it and see that work for you you can safely installed with the previous command

Well i wanted to try out the new touch recovery so i switched from twrp to this and backed up ukb with a lot of apps. It took forever! Twrp finishes backups real fast so out of curiosity i installed 4 ext and backed up the same Rom.it was much faster but still not as fast as twrp. After i rebooted i went into ES to see the difference in file types and that's when i noticed, my twrp backup folder is about 900mb my 4 ext backup was 1gb and the clockwork backup is 13mb.I'm home switch rom's and make sure it's complete, but it makes sense that that much compression would take a while and if it's right it's legen-

Wait for it

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jab0321:
So I am a little confused. I flashed the touch version and also checked the file size of the backup that I made and it is 13mb. Is this really a full nandroid back up of all apps and settings etc? I would like to flash a new ROM but want to make sure that this is creating a full backup before I do. Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RRF12:
Yes most are 13mb.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jekern77:
? My nandroids are MUCH larger than that. Usually 350-400 for aosp/aokp, 500+ for anything sense based.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jab0321:
So is there some other setting that I need to check to enable a full backup? I thought this seemed much too small as well. Before I installed the new touch recovery, my nandroids were 600+mb.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RRF12:
On the new cwm touch mine are 13mb on older recovery they are much larger.And they work fine that's the advantage of the new recovery.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jekern77:
Crazy...90% compression doesn't seem possible...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] phonetool:
I've asked before and haven't gotten any info,.

As I understand it, the "new" backup style skips files that already exist in other backups, thereby saving time.

But does this mean that the new backup is incomplete if the old backup is removed?

Or is it completed by a quick copy/paste action? Is that the time saver?

I can't imagine saving time or space at the expense of getting an absolutely complete backup.

-CM7 on DInc2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jab0321:
I agree. I did look at the clockworkmod folder, however, and noticed that in addition to the backup folder, there is a folder named "blobs" and is about 1GB. I wonder if the backup folders that are created access the blob folder for additional info etc. in order to complete the back up. Would like to hear from someone who knows for sure though.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] RRF12:
I use this backup an its works very well it doesnt back up duplicate files from my understanding which makes it more efficient an I just keep one backup an never had a problem with it failing to restore correctly.

I'll shorten it.

So ten or so years ago, I was pretty into the N64 game “Jet Force Gemini," and those stupid little elf things you had to save would get in the way of everything... so I decided it would just be easier to kill them and collect their heads instead lol.

Anyway, I was playing with my buddy once and those elf things were everywhere in this one part, so needless to say it was pretty much a bloodbath. He made the comment that we were “elf haters" in jest.

That same day I decided I would finally make the leap AIM, and I couldn't think of a name. My friend helped me make the account, and he suggested “elfhater." The name's stuck ever since.

That, plus I'm Jewish, and when one of my other friends pointed out that connection to me a few years ago, I couldn't get rid of the name because it made me laugh too much.

Don't expect me to ever write that on XDA again lol :)

Inside, this screen looks great. For the price, it can't be beat. But I think having this amazing SLCD2 on my One XL has spoiled me because as soon as I walked out of the house with my N7, I was immediately disappointed with the screen. It's not even that sunny out and this thing is dim as hell. Can barely see it. Oh well.
