try this recovery

what i did, i used the recovery.fstab from this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1484753

i would like to try the recovery from the 4ext and see what mount points and how the filesystem is managed.

if you have one share`it with me.

the attached files is the cwm that i cooked, using the stock recovery and adding the fstab from the 5.8 cwm

you can flash it and see what results you have (if you get anny errors)

but don`t use the recovery to flash something till you don`t get the mount results to see if the mounting points are like this, if the mounting points are like this you should be ok to try and flash a rom.

# mount point	fstype	device

/recovery	emmc	/dev/block/mmcblk0p21

/boot	emmc	/dev/block/mmcblk0p22

/cache	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p27 fstype2=ext3

/data	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p26 fstype2=ext3

/sdcard	vfat	/dev/block/mmcblk1p1

/system	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p25 fstype2=ext3

to find out the mounting points

adb shell

mount

and you should have a long output like this (This are not from a htc desire s ! )

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adromir:
Thanks for your effort, but i can't test the recovery properly because there is a key missing to run an option. I can browse through the menu with volume +/- though, but can't enable the selected option.

I found an 4ext Recovery (version 1005.5.0), i attached it with the fstab i extracted from it
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] globula_neagra:
well, i could use the maping key from the cwm 5.8

there are some cwm`s that need enabling

for example on a tablet i need to press 27 times the volume key -, or a combination of + - + (volume keys) to enable the selection.

i can not test the recovery, i will rebuild later on a version based on the 5.8 key maping.

on the screen did you got any errors ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adromir:
No, it didnt show any errors yet. Is it possible to make it touch too? I tried to cook up a cwm with the fstab of 4ext but it completly failed to load any partition. 4ext itself is working though
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] globula_neagra:
here is the touch one, check also if the key`s are working

the recovery that you made, the keys where working ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adromir:
Havent tried the keys on my Build, but with yours they are working.

In the cwm i got this errors:

I:Skipping execution of extended command, file not found

I:Can't partition unsafe device: /dev/block/mmcblk1p1

I:Can't format unknown volume: /external_sd

I:Can't format unknown volume: /emmc

Now trying to make a Backup, that seems to work, but i am not completly sure, havent tried to restore it yet. Will do that tomorrow
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] globula_neagra:
this is the first cwm that i made for you, but with the key maping from the stock recovery

http://www.mediafire.com/?kc8dk9gl2c9660o

---------- Post added at 07:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:08 PM ----------

you can check the recovery files on the sd card, if you see there the boot.img recovery, and system/data mds5 it should be ok to restore.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adromir:
Is this different from the built you attached last? This works fine with the keys.

btw. can you maybe give me some tips how you built it? Later i want to make a new cwm for my tablet, but i dont want to bother you with that too
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] globula_neagra:
yes it is different, it is like the first build but i used the key mapping from the htc desire s stock recovery, the one from the ruu

well the tips are, keep trying till you get something working.

for example on my tablet i am using a htc sensation xl recovery (not all the stuff only the recovery which is in the sbin directory if you unpack the recovery)

unpack the stock recovery, and analyse the recovery.fstab by comparing it to the mount points, if they are ok is very good, you will have bigger chance to get something working.

try and use the clockwork builder and see if you get any results, but select the stock recovery.fstab (you have the option when you cook the recovery, is the second option)

if you don`t get any results like this try to find a similar device from a spec point of view and steal the /sbin/recovery from the device cwm recovery, put it on your recovery, repack and test.

it depends on what tablet you have also :)

If you need help in the future, send me a pm, because i check only once per week this section of the forum.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adromir:
Ok, found boot.img but no system/data and system.ext3.dup is only about 100kb of size. Is that correct?

in the logfile there are three errors:

W:Unable to get recovery.fstab info for /datadata during fstab generation

W:Unable to get recovery.fstab info for /emmc during fstab generation

W:Unable to get recovery.fstab info for /sd-ext during fstab generation
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] globula_neagra:
no, is not corect, that means that the recovery made by the clockworok server has some flaws

i will try to make a new one, based on 4ext recovery

---------- Post added at 07:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 PM ----------

K, i remade the fstab

it looks like this now

# mount point	fstype	device

/recovery	emmc	/dev/block/mmcblk0p21

/boot	emmc	/dev/block/mmcblk0p22

/cache	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p27 fstype2=ext3

/data	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p26 fstype2=ext3

/sdcard	vfat	/dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /dev/block/mmcblk1

/system	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p25 fstype2=ext3

/sd-ext	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk1p2 fstype2=ext4

/system_lib	ext4	/dev/block/mmcblk0p28 fstype2=ext4

You could try and find a similar device that has the version 6 recovery and try the recovery from that device (am talking about getting the recovery, unpack it, take the recovery file which is in boot.img-ramdisk\sbin\recovery

In the end, it`s all about testing :)

I did all my stuff alone, nobody helped me.

http://www.mediafire.com/?69a74qq9idko02v this is the recovery based on the recovery.fstab from the 4ext recovery which looks more complete.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adromir:
Thanks very, very much, i really appreciate your efforts. So now, i'll start trying and trying until i get a working one :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andriboy923:
Help me plz..

I don't haved knowledge about android scripting or any something like that,.. but I was try hard to get and learn about creating CWM of my stock recovery.img .. after all is unfortunately .. always failed.

I haved try on builder.clockworkmod.com but itsn't success,...

would any member in here should help me to create CWM from my stock recovery.img please... my phone is One Scribe ZA987 with MTK6577
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazza9075:
Hi Guys, I have a quick question

I am new to this but im learning quickly.... I think!

im making up my own recovery and so far my recovery.fstab looks like this:

/recovery emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p8

/boot emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p9

/cache ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p10 fstype2=ext3

/data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 fstype2=ext3

/system ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p11 fstype2=ext3

/factory ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p4 fstype2=ext3

/crypo emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p3

but when trying to do a backup it throws up an error saying it cant write to SDCARD, which makes sense as its not mounted

So, the question is, how do I go about mounting it for recovery?

Now, the sdcard is internal, there is no external card, I believe its symlinked to /storage/sdcard within android which is all located in the partition /data/ (mmcblk0p12)

sooo, can anyone help, ive been trawling the interweb and I can find lots of ways to do this within the main OS, but how do I go about it for recovery.fstab to be used in a custom clockwork recovery img
