I started downloading the Android 4.1.2 OTA update for the Wifi Xoom last night. Since then, its been stuck on the hardware boot screen (showing the Moto logo). I've tried the hardware reset (hold power and volume up buttons simultaneously) several times, but I can't get past the hardware boot screen and the screen wont shut off.

I'm running stock Android, no root or custom ROM. Any idea what I should do next?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdatastic:
remove the SD card if one is inserted.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLordxX:
If nothing more works, unlock bootloader, root and install a custom ROM... But first perform a backup using adb while on recovery (it can be the stock one)

Had anyone manage to get it working on S3? I get this: http://imgur.com/IgHl0 and I think its associated with wpa_supplicant, right? There is a fix that I suspect might work but I don't know much about inner working of that so, can anyone tell me more about it?

Oh, and I am running Android Rev. HD 12.00 (Android 4.11).

Hi everyone. I used builder.clockworkmod.com together with ausdim's recovery image to build the newest version (currently 6.0.1.5) as a touch version. I used graphics.c from the CM I9300 git repo, and it seems to do the job. The home button seems to have no effect, but the menu and back touch buttons work. So do the volume keys.

I've used a modified recovery.fstab in order to include the internal sdcard as well as the external one. Haven't tested the .tar.md5 files in ODIN, since I used:

dd if=inputfile.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9

... while in recovery through adb.

I'll include both .tar.md5 files and img files for your convenience.

Proceed with caution, I am not responsible if something goes wrong. The touch one (flashing the img file) worked on mine. Make a backup on your SD card before trying and be careful to use mmcblk0p9 (recovery partition on the I9305). My first attempt overwrote the system partition, luckily I had a backup.

ODIN file

CWM touch: recovery-clockworkmod-touch-i9305.tar.md5

IMG file (for use with dd)

CWM touch: recovery-clockworkmod-touch-i9305.img

Edit: Backup function is reported not to work properly. Use at your own risk.

Not working for me ?

Getting the same error as above using ODIN so tried the dd if/of method too and it copies successfully (i.e. no errors) but when rebooting back into CWM I'm still back on 5.5.0.4 non-touch ?

Will wait for a working .tar/md5 and try the ODIN way I guess ?

Do you have to be in recovery mode? cant you just do it from a terminal whilst your in the phone, and then reboot into recovery to check
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] CharlesW123:
Method I used:

1. Copy the recovery.img file to the phone.

2. Boot phone into recovery (current CWM 5.5.0.4 non-touch)

3. Plug phone into the pc and wait for it to be picked up.

3. On the phone, go to Mounts & Storage, mount SDCard.

4. on pc "adb shell"

5. Will have connected with SU rights (as can be seen with #), then type (on pc):

dd if=/sdcard/recovery-clockworkmod-touch-i9305.img of=/dev/block/nncblk0p9

6. Should copy over in just a second or two and give you file size counts etc.

7. On pc type "reboot recovery"

I then end up back in the 5.5.0.4 non-touch recovery ? probably me doing it wrong but I can remember back in the day doing the same on my trusty G1 and it working :)

NOTE: To OP, is the mount point correct ? i.e. should it be "mmcblk0p9" not "nncblk0p9", which is what is in the OP ???

I Like this recovery and was finally exited it has an option to create the TAR backup But i did it as a test and was dissappointed to see it doesnt actually back up your data & apps and most likely not your tweaks aswell. DAM it the chainfire still is the best in that regards as its better for the people who flash test roms and if they dont like it just press restore and reboot and you have EVERYTHING the way it was without having to reset it.

I am going to talk to the creater and ask him why he still hasnt added the full nandroid option back like it used to be
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] zyonee:
It uses incremental backups if I'm not mistaken. Are you saying backup is broken or simply not backing up entire partitions each time? I haven't had time to try it myself.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] btemtd:
No it works fine so far its actually the best one since chainfire's because if give you an option of increment way OR Tar way which is entire backup MINUS your data, Appz, Tweaks, Its like a blank fresh base with what ever system apps you had and your modem, before there was no tar option and you know how long it used to take to transfer your nandroid backup to your computer? Not because of the size because of the thousands upon thousand of small blob files. Was a major headache i never used to copy it i left it on the phone.

But I reverted back to chainfires once again and ill tell you why:

The way the other CWM was is when you create a backup it creates an ENTIRE CLONE of the WHOLE phone data,sms,tweaks,even folders you created and wifi settings . the way your widgets and screens were setup. EVERYTHING. this makes it easier when you flash roms to test but you dont like it you just have to flash your one back with one button and you dont have to set anything else. Maybe the creater of CWM should see this i dont think he realises how much better the other backup way was,
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] zyonee:
For the one who frequently makes backups, the incremental version is better and for those who want to transfer full backups, the older one is preferable. I think there's a way by putting some kind of configuration file in the cwm directory to choose the full backup, but I'm not sure about this...

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] btemtd:
I would love to have the look of the new cwm but still have that featur . It would of been great if you choose the tar option it actually creates a clone backup. I wonder if anyone can actually do it

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] zyonee:

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] btemtd:
No you dont have to disable the incremental, Like I said there are 2 Options Now 1. Incremental - DUBS and 2. Tar - which is 4 files of your enitre Rom /system apps/kernel BUT not including your personal apps your settings, your widget setups, your data.. Do you understand me now? The old way used be TAR backup but it had 6 files before instead of 4. What you need to look for is a way you can change the TAR backup option to actually backup your ENTIRE ROM. like the chainfire way... this should not be too hard because when i look at the backup files doing it the Tar way , It is only missing 2 files. Nandroid.md5 and Data.md5 <<<<< the names of the missing files are something like this. That is why when you restore on the new CWM you dont have your data,setting,styles etc......

Hey guys, hope someone can help here!

I had the regular CWM recovery up until yesterday, then used Mobile Odin to flash the Touch version. I just noticed that I get an error in recovery when I try to access the external SD card or try to mount it. Anyone else had this? What am I missing? I am pretty sure I was able to access it via the regular version.

Also, before I try to make sure is it safe to just flash the regular version over the touch version?

Thanks.

It may not allow the EXTsd I had that on a previous Touch I would of thought they have fixed this by now, I really do not like these new version the old one is so practical and does exactly what you want. Untill the touch does what the old version does i wont use it.

Yes it it safe to reflash over

OK, well flashing the CWM Regular from the OP with Mobile ODIN put my device in to a perm/looping recovery mode where the home button would not work. Not sure why!

I had to use ODIN (Windows) and I flashed the CWM (version 5.5.0.4) from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1914394 to get it back to normal.

After that, trying version 6.0.1.5 again leaves a non functioning home button in recovery mode, weird! So I have to stick to 5.5.0.4 unless anyone has some ideas?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] btemtd:
I only used the touch version, where i did not even try the home button as Its touch, (just touched the screen) so not sure if there was a home button bug
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] chippyuk:
Sorry, I was not very clear, I meant that the regular version in the OP gives me a non functioning home button, so completely unusable. The Touch version would not access the ExtSdCard. Hence having to revert to version 5.5.0.4 which works fine but am not sure if I am missing anything in not having the later version.

Did you try the regular 6.0.1.5 version? Does your home button work in that one?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] zyonee:
Does the power button work as a confirm button or does it toggle the screen?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] chippyuk:

Ok, how about the back and menu touch keys (in the non-touch version)? Sorry that I don't have the time to test this myself. If these are useless as well, I'll remove the links of the non-touch versions in the OP.

As far as I can tell, yes. I included it in recovery.fstab, so both the internal and external SD cards are supported. At least for me, my card has one partition, no ext or swap.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] chippyuk:
Mine just kept giving errors - "error mounting extsdcard" or something similar. I have a sandisk 64gb card exfat. But it works ok under the regular version just not under the Touch version. Thanks for your time! :)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] zyonee:
Mine might not support exFAT, and I guess the other one does. Once again, I didn't compile mine, so I cannot change stuff in the source code on this device.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] zyonee:
Ok, so I talked to someone with a SGS2 (GT-I9100) who's using a late version CWM. He can make tar backups that also backs up the data partition, so it's more likely it's a bug in my version. Also, when trying to make a backup, mine stops half-way through /system and goes back to the main menu, even when I try incremental backups. Flahsing zips works fine, so I'd like to hear how backup is working for you guys. Please let me know.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] CharlesW123:
No data in backup too

Fine for flashing zips here too but yep no data partition backup either.

No errors occuring at all, just not there ?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] zyonee:
Ok, sh**.. Seems like my recoveries are quite useless then. I don't know why it just stops half-way. The mount points are all correct, I double checked them.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] CharlesW123:
Alternative for backups for now

I prefer the touch interface for flashing kernels, xips etc. so sticking with this CWM for now :)

in the meantime using this to do my backups, you may be able to get something from it to get your backups to work maybe ? :)

I think I will wait to see if zyonee can come up with anything for the simple reason that I have issues with both the 6.0.1.5 versions on my phone and also because I do not want a half baked solution where the backups fail (I know I can use your online method).

I'm a good c/c++ programer at the wii hacking scene, so i thought nothing is impossible, and i want a german recovery from the newest CWM, i have spend many hours to compile this and it's done. :D

Here is a working CWM Recovery 6.0.1.5 Version (without touch) with internal and external sd card support, working backup and i think restore, too. I prefer to use the dup function, the first backup take a long time, but next backups be done in a few minutes.

You can backup to internal or external sd. Keys are equal to recovery v5.

On another note I managed to get your non touch version installed thanks to txr33 who created a .tar for me however I completed a backup but the backup only contained files of a few mb each in size. I needed a complete backup so replaced it again, perhaps it just did an incremental backup. I will test it again later.
