Their discontinues cause tdj isnt gonna be updating his stuff nomore thats why it says that but the scripts still works
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
Yeah I read up on that. Seemed interesting. But I was wondering why I would need to go into root explorer while in recovery. It's late so ill read more tomorrow lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] krazeecracker:
Maybe if you put a file somewhere and forgot where its at or it needs to be moved or deleted etc while bin recovery? Lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] casonswag:
Cause maybe u dont want to boot all the way up into the rom that takes a lil time or maybe u did a factory reset and wiped system so u cant boot into a rom at the moment and you need to mess around with files u can do it right in the recovery

If this has an explorer built in, can it move files around?? I needed something like this couple days ago when my laptop crashed and wouldnt boot up and i have a messed up cable that needs to be held while transfering and thats not good for large files. And for some reason, i couldnt flash the koodos rom from my external card, i had to move it to internal partition.. i was using v11

And does that mean a new update is on its way tonight or something??

DMolina
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
i just updated to v12 a few hours ago.

yes it has a built in explorer. i will be putting instruction in the 2nd post on how to configure it properly.

since i just updated to v12 idk if i want to make an update tonight or wait til i have more than just one feature added. idk. ill see.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] casonswag:
I see the official recovery came out i know u probably got all the codes already but maybe it could help u with anything on this just a headsup

Hey sk8erwitskil idk what it is but I ran your implemented DS cache wipe and it through me into another never ending bootloop. I had to boot into your recovery and manually cache, dalvik wipes and fix permissions and I booted up. Am I the only one having the issue? Also what is sk8erwitskil cache wipe?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
did you run the super wipe? that would erase everything. and ive never used the darkside scripts. i just put them in there because people seem to love them. i didnt alter the scripts at all. i just bundled them in. so if you have an issue with them there must be a problem with the scripts. if other people are having the same issue and it seems to be more trouble than benefit then ill just take them out.

sk8erwitskil cache wipe?? idk what you mean. there is a sk8's fix_permissions. its a more in depth fix_permissions. the information is in the 2nd post.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
No I did the Darkside cache wipe not Superwipe. And yes my bad I meant sk8s fix permissions lol! I'll read up on it. My bad.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] manekineko:
I'm on 6.0.1.2 Touch 12.5, the current latest.

Doing an advanced restore of only the data partition of a backup seemed to have a bug where it is corrupting the cache partition.

After it is restored, the phone won't boot anymore, and both on start and exit of recovery, it'll complain that it can't access the cache partition.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
this is the same issue that others were having with official CWM. (it only makes sense that it would eventually happen with this recovery since theyre the same base). i think the way they solved it was to re-install recovery and wipe cache.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] manekineko:
I've reinstalled recovery and then used the built in darkside super wipe, which does fix the corruption.

However, if I try and use the advanced restore of data again, then it corrupts again.

For now, I'm just using regular restore, and restoring everything, even though I'd like to wipe /system.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
If you want system wiped you can just go to mounts and storage and format /system

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
I had a question... I remember reading a while back thats the darkside scripts were developed for nontouch cwm. Is that why I have had issues with it since this is touch? Im going to flash another rom later today and will try the scripts again and will report back. But i tried flashing a rom yesterday without scripts and ended up with bad audio while others flashed with scripts and had good audio. Even one person tried without scripts initially with muffled sounds and then ran scripts and phone was fine.

My nandroid backups are about 20 megabytes; I feel like this is wrong. They used to be over 1gb in size. Can anyone advise whether or not their backups are so small/if I'm doing something wrong? I'm using 6.0.1.2 v12.5.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RikkKeith:
Read the OP, there is a section that talks about the new depupe format. It will have the answers your looking for.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
first of all, theres no way that anything could be "developed for non touch" only. the touch recovery i made is based off of non touch recovery. they ALL have the exact same base code. all i did was take the non touch stock base cwm and add the code to recognize the touch events. and all the darkside scripts are is a script that manually erases and aligns the partitions. theres no reason why it would only work in a certain recovery as all the needed binaries are included in the script. whoever told you they were made for only a certain recovery is completely wrong and i urge them to explain why they said that.

second, theres also no reason why not running the scripts would cause audio to be muffled as they do absolutely nothing with the speakers. they just erase a partition. the only thing i could think of that would cause that is because you didnt do a wipe before you installed that rom and had old not compatible audio drivers still left on your /system partition. and running the darkside scripts would erase those drivers therefore you would only have the new working audio drivers.

i hope i explained that well. if it doesnt make sense or you have more questions feel free to ask. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
yupp the answers are in the OP. your individual backup folders will never be more than ~20mb. all the important stuff is in the blobs folder. if you dont like that format you can switch back to the old way by going into "backup & restore>>choose backup format" and set it to "tar"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
Well after flashing an old recovery and did a clean install again I still got a muffled or water mic sound. So yes its not your recovery. But for some reason I still have an issue running darkside cache wipe script.. I would end up in a bootloop. Is anyone else having this issue if you have tried the scripts yet? And yes you explained well. :beer:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
try this and see if it works:

- boot into recovery

- mounts&storage>>format /system

- factory reset/ format /data

- mounts&storage>>format /cache

- run darkside super wipe

- install rom

- reboot

see if you still have a bootloop after that. that will basically erase everything (not your sdcard though) and you will have a clean slate to work from and hopefully will fix the bootloop issue. i have heard of others with the bootloop issue and me and erickwill are in the middle of trying to narrow down the problem but for now i think those steps above will work.

Just don't use the scripts anymore. 6.0.x.x wipes proper. The scripts are no longer needed.

Sent from JMT Goodness :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
what do you mean "it wipes properly"? did cwm5x not wipe properly? and what changes were made that make it wipe properly now?

cwm has always wiped properly. thats not the issue. the way that cwm works is that it creates a blank ext4 .img file and writes that img file to the corresponding block, overwriting anything that was on there. thats all fine and dandy but the thing that the darkside scripts do is manually erase those partitions using mkfs.ext4 and align them correctly using tune2fs and then manually create a filesystem on that partition, so its just a more thorough way of doing it. they both work. one is just more thorough.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
I know you are right. I've flashed without scripts and it works great. I'm just so used to if something goes wrong with the phone to boot into recovery and darkside cache. But now I just cache wipe dalvik wipe then fix permissions. Not a big deal. Just letting him know the scripts he has in doesn't work for me doing it the normal way. But I'm honestly having no real issues with this recovery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LoopDoGG79:
I stand corrected. This info should be spread more out more, cause many in the T989 forum think the scripts "fixed" the wiping function of CWM 5.0.x.x. I'll like to say though, many,including myself, have testified that they wiped manually and got a boot loop, then reflashed and wiped with the scripts and booted up afterwards.

Sent from JMT Goodness :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
yah thats the issue me and erickwill are working on at the moment. i "think" its because of the alignment part that the darkside scripts do. have you noticed if its happened for you on ICS AND JB? or just when you flash JB roms or the other way around? i think jellybean roms have something to do with messing up the alignment of the partitions or maybe they require something different that ICS roms. but i need more data to confirm that assumption.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LoopDoGG79:

DMolina
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
im adding a feature to my recovery that will let you create a custom rom based off the files you have installed on your phone. so basically you can set up your phone how you want it and then make a rom out of it. i have it working for AOSP roms but i need someone with a stock rom to test if the rom that it makes will install. would you be willing to do that? i just need to know if it will create the rom and then if you can go and install it.

edit: if you feel adventurous then install this one: http://d-h.st/tYp

and do this:

- extras>>create custom rom

- let that finish

- make a backup just in case (not necessary but recommended...always recommended)

- install a zip from internal sdcard >> /emmc/clockworkmod/zips/{DATE}/yourcustomROM.zip

- see if it finishes installing

edit (again): you say you created a backup and it wouldnt restore? never heard of a backup just not restoring. did it finish backing up correctly?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gatorstew:

Yes that's the method I used. Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
i added in the ability to use openrecoveryscript. (http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/OpenRecoveryScript). this way you can use goo-manager to create a script that will backup/wipe/install roms all in one swoop. you open goo-manager and select the files you want to install, select the order, select the other options you would like, then itll reboot into recovery and you select the option 'run openrecoveryscript' and itll do all the stuff you told it to do in the order you told it.

my question is this: should i create an option to be able to select a custom location of your own openrecoveryscript? that way you can create one for different situations. for example: lets say you have a process you use when you update your rom which includes wiping system, wiping data, wiping cache and installing a rom and then gapps. you could write a custom script and put it somewhere on your sdcard and then instead of having to go through all those options you just select that openrecoveryscript file and itll do all those things for you. how does an option like that sound? would anyone use that?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
Or even a way to dirty flash??? How about naming our nandroids like in twrp?? I'm fd up so I haven't read if you can. Lord forgive me for my drinking oil!

I'm running v12 is this stable for daily flashes? Lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
v12 is stable except the darkside wipes dont work in that version. i fixed it in v12.5. so unless you want to use the darkside wipes you can stay on v12. all versions are stable for flashes/backups/restores. the only difference between the versions are the extras that i put it. i have never changed any of the stock options. so basically, to the person that uses recovery only for the normal flashing/wiping/backups/restores then all of them will do the same thing :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] suaverc118:
What about being able to name our nandroids??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sk8erwitskil:
that would require adding a virtual keyboard to recovery. something i have no idea how to do and no idea where i would even start. the easiest way to do that in recovery would be to mount /emmc, and run 'adb shell echo "backup S myBackup" > /emmc/clockworkmod/ors/mycustom.ors. replace myBackup with the name of your backup and mycustom.ors with anything you want. just make sure it has the .ors extension. then run that custom openrecoveryscript from the extras menu. itll create a backup with whatever name you put in there
