Well that sucks. I bought the touch recovery on my S3 but when moving to the Nexus 4 it says I haven't got it. I thought in app purchases added onto your Google account like everything else?!

You don't need anything from Google Play, including ROM manager. You can download and flash touch recovery as described in OP and other posts. It's best not to mess around with ROM Manager and "shortcut" solutions/tools on such a new phone.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] VivaErBetis:
Thank you very much. I'm learning a lot with this thread. I'll try the CWM recovery when I receive the phone.

BTW: CWM recovery files 6.0.1.9, touch and non touch, seems to be the same files (same CRC)... A mistake, no?.

where are the backups? i flashed CMW, ran a backup, but my mnt/shell/ directory is empty??

Hello fkrone !

Thanks for your job, it's work fine for me ! :good:

---------- Post added at 04:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:09 PM ----------

Hello all,

For those who did'nt understood how to do :

1-Copy the revert recovery disabler zip file to root of the internal storage

2-Re-start phone in fastboot mode

3-Flash recvovery.img with fastboot command (don't restart phone after that) --> See first post for further informations

4-Enter the root recovery mode on the phone WITHOUT restart it

5-Install zip from sdcard (choose revert recovery disabler zip file

6-Go back to the cwm recovery menu to reboot phone

Then, when you start your phone in fastboot mode and choose recovery mode, you'll have the CWM recovery !!!

Thank to fkrone !!!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] raycaster3:
My backup is there. Idk maybe try again? Reboot into recovery ad make sure you have a backup there. Does your storage reflect a backup as in the size of the backup removed from available storage?

Hm, am I right that currently it is not working to Flash CWM Recovery through ROM-Manager, also this option is available ?

It is working. If you have the free ROM-Manager it is the non touch version though.

Yeah.

ROM Manager really doesn't know what to do though. Errors out when trying to modify any backups.

So for now I have to do everything directly in recovery.

Backups

As others have posted the backups can be hard to find, but my issue with them is that it appears to only contain data for boot and recovery. The rest are just text files containing directory listings. I'd really like a backup of EVERYTHING on my phone.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] VivaErBetis:
In my case the backup is in "/data/media/clockwork/", like others. But I discover I have the same issue as you, incomplete backup. If you choose backup format TAR instead of DUP (default) I think the generated backup is complete (or at least, seems to be complete) but the emulated sdcard content is not backed at all...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] DarkShadowAy:
Anyone know why it says downloading boot.img?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dcarpenter85:
I have a problem where my device is not recognized in Windows when I am in CWM or TWRP recoveries. It is like the USB drivers aren't installed when clearly they are since all is well in Android.

Can't find my backups while in Android. Only CWM sees them. I have looked everywhere I can think of. CWM says they're in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup but the clockworkmod folder doesn't exist anywhere.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] yokken:
They were in /mnt/shell/emulated/sdcard which is not visible to ES File Explorer, even with root enabled. At least I can't get to it. I also cannot create a symbolic link to put the CWM backups in an accessible location. So I just made a copy of the backup and transferred it to my computer as a zip. Thank you AirDroid!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dcarpenter85:
Could be an issue with the file name. Try renaming it to 'customrecovery.img' and see what happens.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] 1234568:
Thank you. I'm a little confused by the partitions on my N4 tbh. What's these emulated partitions about? Apologies for going slightly off topic but it's kinda relevant to cwm as it's where it's saved.

Is this connected with the problem that I cannot mount the sdcard?

[Nexus 4 Android Development] nibrwr:
Not too sure. Coming from the GNexus, it's foreign to me as well.

I think so. CWR seems to be using a different mount point for backups, hence the odd location, along with an incorrect /sdcard mount location. I'm sure this will all be resolved in the near future, especially with the latest shipment of backordered N4s
[Nexus 4 Android Development] hey_malik:
I was hoping that. So just don't panic and wait ;)

[Nexus 4 Android Development] nibrwr:
Yep! KCCO
[Nexus 4 Android Development] riko540:
I believe the location was changed because of the multiple users feature that has been incorporated into android.

If you go into storage you'll notice a folder called sdcard0. This is how android handles multiple users the next user would have a folder called sdcard1 and the next sdcard2 so forth and so on.

CWM had problems handling this so Koush changed the location to get around the problem.

Guys, looking for a little help. Flashed cwm from a file in the forum and did a backup. Took 2 gigs of space. Downloaded ROM manager and reflashed touch recovery from the app. Now I can't find my backup and it's taking 2 gigs of space that I can't reclaim. Looked as suggested above but not there.

Please help me. :(

i think its possible with root explorer to search your phone. search for "clockworkmod" or "clockwork" or "clock" or whatever you see would help find it

[Nexus 4 Android Development] one7dchevy:
I actually am starting to think it is OK. From a thread in the Q/A section I've gathered that cwm started to backup a different way, which if configurable if you want to switch back to the old method. The new way stores data in the "Blobs" folder also. So the size of the typical backup folder is much smaller. I switched, in cwm to backup method "Tar" and did a backup and the typical folder was 1.3x GB.

Hopefully my information is correct or somewhat correct.

recovery-from-boot.p not renamed but doesn't seem to matter

i am finding that on my Stock rooted 4.2.1 Nexus 4 with CWM 6.0.2.0 installed i still have the recovery-from-boot.p file and the install-recovery.sh at the default locations and default names:

/system/recovery-from-boot.p

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh

However, even though those files are there CWM works perfectly fine every time i reboot and the recovery is not reverted to stock... The funny thing is i do remember choosing to rename the files the first time i exited from CWM (6.0.1.9 at that time), but it doesn't look like it did anything or that it needed to. Also i no longer get that option to rename the files when i exit CWM.

Are others finding the same thing?

If you can, then you could reinstall it with:

I can get into Fastboo yes, which is why I'm puzzled as to why I can't manually get into CWM Recovery via Rom Manager --> Reboot into Recovery.

I've also tried re-installing it and no luck....

I installed 6.0.1.9 and all is well now.

Blobs have a ton of tiny files that will take up space like no tomorrow. Tar is much smaller and faster so I would recommend switching formats.

So if i switch format then is it safe to delete the blobs folder or all the folders created inside blobs folder ?

Can't access backups from Windows laptop

I have created a backup using 6.0.1.9 and can see it in root explorer at /data/media/clockworkmod/backup. However, /sdcard/clockworkmod only shows a .nomedia file and a .settings file.

So are they there for a reason ? Or is it 100% safe to delete the blob folder ?
