Using TWRP 2.3.3.0 to fix permission for nstool with miuiv4 rom give me bootloop..when using CWM 6.0.2.5 didnt like that..anyone?
[Nexus S Android Development] Pumpino:
Will 6.0.2.7 be available soon? There are some important bug fixes. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=36006819&postcount=1121
[Nexus S Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
Depends on Koush himself.
[Nexus S Android Development] rasengan82:
ClockworkMod 6.0.2.5 is giving me very rare format failures on /system (make_extf4fs failed on on dev/block/mm....... etc) I thought my nand was bricked but I did a retry and it works fine. This error happens very rarely and only on 6.0.2.5. It does not happen with the previous version of CWM. When it happens, a retry always works...

Just to be 100% sure I did a fastboot erase system to basically erase the system partition and recreated it by flashing the stock JB system.img with fastboot flash system because if the nand is having issues, this command fails 100%. Everything went fine with fastboot, so my guts telling me there's a bug with the format operation in the latest cwm...I reported it to Koush and he replied saying he will take a look. Just to be 100% sure I wanna go back to cwm 5.x... so does anybody have the last 5.x version NS4G (non-touch) before the 6.x jump? I believe it was 5.0.2.0?

Thanks!
[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
If you check post #8 I have posted the latest version for NS4G, touch (also works as non touch btw, can still scroll with volume) before v6. Make sure you get NS4G one and not NS one. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] rasengan82:
Found 5.0.2.0. No more format issues and it just feels faster (probably placebo lol).

Re: [Compilation] Flashable zips of Recoveries (Update-Dec 24, 2012) [Nexus S-crespo]

TWRP 2.4.0.0 out sir..can u make flashable zip? ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] murfi:
whats the difference between cwm and twrp? or: why would i want twrp if i have cwm?
[Nexus S Android Development] Jamalsid:
To make a new flashable zip would it be as simple as replacing the recovery.img file in one of the zips on the 1st post with the the recovery.img for TWRP 2.4.0.0? If so then the attached file zhould do the trick.

NOTE I HAVE NOT TESTED THE ATTACHED AND TAKE NO RESPONSIBILTY IF IT BRICKS YOUR DEVICE. FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK.
[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
Quite a few reasons actually!

Without being too technical:

-Fully open source

-Android apps can interface with TWRP recovery, meaning you can automagically queue zips, flash a rom update and many other nifty things without having to fsck around in the recovery. All in the comfort of Android. CWM, can, technically since most of it has been open sources, but some sections remain closed.

-Theme-able! All XML driven, you can pretty much make it look however you want. I use a port of this theme: TWRP Holo Dark/Light

-Integrated file manager, zip queue (flash rom, gapps, kernel all in an instant), rename/manage backups from within recovery with onscreen keyboard, mount external drive in recovery, plenty of others.

So that's just the non-technical tip of the iceberg of pros over CWM. I used to be a CWM user, for the sole reason I never used TWRP. But I'll never look back. The USB not being able to mount in recovery issue in CWM > v6.0.10 is just what blew it for me.

Re: [Compilation] Flashable zips of Recoveries (Update-Jan 31, 2013) [Nexus S-crespo]

I had that problem too. In the end I installed Google Drive from the market, opened this thread with the XDA app, clicked the link in the OP, opened with Drive, exited and reopened Drive, went to Recent Files, selected and moved the recovery zip to my own personal Drive, THEN used Solid Explorer to log into Google Drive and copy the file from there to my SD card.

Soooo... if possible I'd just download the file on your computer and send it to your NS manually. I'm going to lie down for a bit.

P.S. TWRP 2.4 is terrific, thanks DJB for this thread and all the flashable zips.

Good to know. I tried to upgrade from 2.4.0.0 using GooManager and it failed.

It would be great if these zips could be hosted on another site. We all find that the zip is opened on our handsets rather than downloaded, so we have to download the file to our PCs and transfer via USB cable. Appreciate the update though.

[Nexus S Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
Re: [Compilation] Flashable zips of Recoveries (Update-Feb 5, 2013) [Nexus S-crespo]

1. Download the desired version of TWRP from first post.

2. Copy the downloaded zip to your device's storage.

3. Switch off and boot into CWM recovery

4. Install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard > select the zip that you transferred and flash it.

5. Go to Advanced and tap on Reboot Recovery

You'll now have your device booted into TWRP ;)

Go ahead, its just a matter of minutes and you will have it. I case you don't like it, download the desired cwm zip from 1st post and flash it from TWRP :)

[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
The new TWRP has an issue I believe anyway, the timeout function makes it so that the screen dims and turns off after some time to save battery and burn in, but on the Nexus S you can't bring it back on. Only a battery pull or adb reboot will help.

Yeah it's not a SOD in itself, the phone is still doing its thing, just you can't see it. It still answers to adb. :p

You can change the timeout to very long and it won't happen as long as you touch the screen, but that's just a hassle. I'd rather stay on an older version, like you.

How do you make a recovery flashable? I believe it's much more than copying the .img to an archive already existing..
[Nexus S Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
I have knowledge of edify scripting. And this is too basic :good:

a script in minute, create few folders, drag the files to appropriate place, zip up, sign and deliver.
[Nexus S Android Development] andrei1015:
So it isn't as easy as I thought. Any reason for not making a flashable zip of the latest cwm (touch and non-touch)?

EDIT: If I download the recovery from the clockworkmod site and flash the .img file via fastboot, do I lose anything? Asking because I know unlocking the bootloader wipes everything, including the SD, which is rather sad really..
[Nexus S Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
Just saw that they have been updated, zips coming up soon. And it is as easy as you thought. :highfive:

No you don't lose anything. Its just at the time of unlocking bootloader. :victory:
[Nexus S Android Development] andrei1015:
Yay^^ Just wrote the new recovery and it seems to work. Will see how well in a few minutes after they release the nightly. But yesterday I stumbled upon the recovery builder from clockworkmod (I also understood what's with all the recoveries being build on cm's servers all the time) but the archive built didn't seem like it was flashable. What is the builder actually for?:D
[Nexus S Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
The build server takes the latest device source and CWM source from the repo and builds the recovery image for your device.

2.5.5.0 has only cosmetic flaws, but works perfectly, if you go into the ?advanced menu, you can reset the theme and it will look right, until you reboot...
[Nexus S Android Development] Pumpino:
Yeah, it does solve the display issue, but you have to do it every time you boot into recovery. There hasn't been an update to 2.5.x for a while, so I was going to try the latest 2.4.x seeing as 2.4.1.0 is working fine with JellyShot 4.3.
[Nexus S Android Development] Setting.Out:
All was good for me with 2.4.x until the screen timed out and I was stuck on a black screen and had to pull my battery... "there hasn't been an update for a while" so you go backwards to an earlier version that won't get an update ever?
[Nexus S Android Development] Pumpino:
The screen going black was my issue too. I had previously stuck with 2.3 because I thought the issue was introduced in 2.4, but 2.4.1.0 works fine. So perhaps it was a later version.

As for going backwards by using an earlier version...well, 2.4.1.0 works fine and 2.5.0.0 has a display issue, so it makes more sense to me to use 2.4.1.0 until an update to 2.5 is released, and then I can try that. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] Jamalsid:
You can fix the black screen issue by going into the advanced settings and turning off the screen timeout. The issue was/is that the screen times out but then doesn't wake up properly.
