Get the zip on your phone, boot into recovery and go onto flash zip, choose philz and flash, reboot and that's it. Simple.

Figured it out shortly after I posted. You didn't help so please do not credit yourself. Also you didn't have to be rude. Philz posted the recovery to the DNA only about a week ago. Not many people have switched over to using it yet so the thread there didn't have to much to work with. Didn't see the FAQ until to late. Actually was coming here to edit the post and call myself an idiot but thanks.

Status error 7 on old update-binary

Good news: seems like a fix was committed to auto-swap things when needed:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/a0f0fc021049fe3906336b558059f48fb36507fb

I will merge it. However, I expect some devices won't be able to fit it due to small ramdisk

I also assume it is useless space waste as people should just update their packages

I was wondering if there would be any desire to have a copy/move nandroid backup feature.

I've been having issues with my laptop and my adb hasn't worked consistently and all of the backups i've made from the generic clockworkmod don't backup to the correct directory mentioned in FAQ 2. Since my adb isn't working, I was thinking that there'd be no better place to copy/move backups from the known bad location to the correct location that your recovery uses. I'd like to have all of my backups in the correct location and in the same location.

Unless you'd like to offer another suggestion...
[Android Software Development] RK:
Just use aroma file manager and move them..
[Android Software Development] MajikUF:
Thank you for the suggestion. Worked fantastic. Already done and working.

[Android Software Development] Epikarus:
Hello~ I have an issue that has been driving me crazy for a couple of weeks. Often when I boot into recovery I get the error

E:can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:can't open /cache/recovery/log/last_log
E:can't open /cache/recovery/log/last_log

this happens at almost every action i take in recovery. To get rid of this I have to wipe my cache partition, but this is only a temporary solution. Later this error comes back in a later recovery boot. Sometimes I don't get this error when booting, but eventually I do and once I do it wont go away unless I wipe cache. After countless google searches it seems that I'm the only one with this specific problem. My conclusion is that somehow the recovery sometimes loses the ability to write to my cache partition. (I only get a last_log if i wipe cache, otherwise i get no last_log file for the last recovery boot) I dont know how and I don't know why. I'm on CM11 nightlies. My device is d2att. It's not a specific issue to philztouch recovery becuase i get the same error in CWM recovery and a similar one in TWRP.

I've even Odin'd back to stock and flashed CM11 again but I still get this issue. I'm just wondering if its a hardware issue (seems like it because going back to stock doesnt fix it) Maybe my internal SDcard is starting to die? I'm not sure, I'm hoping its not. No one else on my device seems to have this problem. Its been a few weeks that i've been experiencing this and no one else is saying anything about it. I've attached my last_log. Thanks for reading, and please advise.

PS: The phone runs fine otherwise.

I'm trying to install the recovery for the vs980, or Verizon LG G2, and have triple checked to make sure I'm downloading the right package, and my phone is rooted, but when I go to CWM to flash the recovery, I get this error

assert failed: run_program("/tmp/loki.sh ==0

E:Error in /data/media/0/Download/philz_touch_6.07.9-vs980.zip

(Status 7)

I've tried checking into what may be causing it, and have been researching this all day. I'm completely at a loss as to what I should do, and any help would be greatly appreciated. I've tried installing it with the lokifier on and off, same result either way, and am positive my recovery is installed and working, since I've already created the Nandroid for emergencies.
[Android Software Development] Epikarus:
I would suggest downloading "recovery tools" from the play store and use that to install this recovery.
[Android Software Development] takenone:
Okay, I tried using recovery tools off the play store, and found the image I needed in the zip. When I use recovery tools to install the recovery, it installs it and says complete, but once I restart and attempt to enter recovery, it goes to a black screen after the LG logo, and stays there. If I hold down the power button and restart the phone, it reboots properly, but when I try to manually power off the phone and enter recovery, it just loads android normally. I assume this means the recovery failed to install properly?
[Android Software Development] Epikarus:
Hmm. I don't know. Do other recoveries work? Cwm or twrp? There should be an option for recovery tools to download and install philz automayically
[Android Software Development] takenone:
I'm able to use both CWM and TWRP to backup/restore images, I just can't use either one to flash a rom, and also can't use either one to flash PhilZ Recovery. When I open Recovery tools, the only options it gives me are to install TWRP or install a recovery off my phone. When I navigate to PhilZ touch it it simply tells me I'm incorrect, and that the file cannot be flashed.

Hi Philz. I can't find the cwm recovery for i9100 (Celeriter ROM, which is an'unofficiale CM11 4.4.2). Can you give the right link? Can I use the i9100G version?
[Android Software Development] danarama:
It's not here on purpose. Its a pointless function. All permissions should be correctly applied in the updater-script of whatever mod you apply. If it does not, then the mod should not be used.

How can "fix-permissions" option in recovery actually know the correct permissions for everything you have customised on your system? If you think about it, it cannot possibly know. Meaning it guesses. Meaning it can break things. Meaning it is useless.

Mentioned multiple times in this thread. MOST recoveries removed this option. It should NOT be used in recoveries that haven't removed it. Causes more harm than good.
[Android Software Development] ameinild:
And if permissions somehow still need to be fixed, you can use Aroma file manager from recovery to set permissions manually.

On the Goo.im download page, there is no link for crespo4g downloads, only crespo. Although, in the specific thread for crespo4g, the Dev-Host site does have specific download links for crespo4g.

We would like recovery PIN / password to protect recovery from access/adb. The only question is how could this work for

1) Your device cannot boot, you cannot access recovery. How do you factory reset? From nexus we can do from Fastboot. I'm not sure about other phones.

2) What about automated backup jobs? how could someone pre-enter the password in Tasker for example?

You cannot protect download mode / fastboot with recovery though
[Android Software Development] Mr.Tom82:
For 1: you mean when you forget your password/pin? That's okay, who forgot his pw/pin should not set one. This feature should be for professionals.

Also you can use download mode to flash new fw.

2) possible you pass your pw/pin into your job or recovery skip pw/pin questions when there are any automatic jobs.

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9100 mit Tapatalk
[Android Software Development] danarama:
1) No I do not mean if you forget password. Where is the password stored? /sdcard? /data? What if the password file corrupts? How do you get into recovery? Flash new firmware won't fix corrupt password file / wipe password.

Also, if you can simply flash a new recovery that doesn't read password file, it is all unlocked again

This is all fine on Nexus. I can lock bootloader so cannot flash recovery. Unlock bootloader wipes device, so all data protected. But what about Samsung devices? Whatever is implemented must work for all devices.

2) Yes possible but how?

These are the things we need to think about.
[Android Software Development] Mr.Tom82:
1) best stored in recovery partition. And yes you can flash a new recovery.

But it is not easy for every body (need cable, Odin, recovery image, knowledge,..)

It should not be a 100% protection, more a first-aid that not everyone can destroy your phone/data in seconds.

2) the devs surely know how

This would be like BIOS password. You would need it only to change options. Although I completely disagree with this feature, it may have very little to protect the phone as one can just replace the entire recovery using an app.

And plus you can just use the fastboot to push a new version as well.

No body force you to use the feature - it should only be a option to set a protection.

So when you have no interest, please don't spoil the idea.

When the phone has no recovery partition, how can we use a recovery system.

By the way, it should be possible to find for special problems a special solution.

[Android Software Development] aviwdoowks:
Just for the record

In use, some issues that I encounter:

1) the ini.bak is trashed often, residing in data/media, when needing to wipe/ format & etc. Why not, at least give the option to read it from sdcard1?

2) The "back to cancel" does allow for an unverified input. Yet it is hardly distinguished in the results screen.

3) The backup... options are unverified. Good place to add a name option/verification.

4) Reboot system seems to be created to be a verified option but does not work.

5) partitions the can be formatted need to be Supported/saved: /persist, /firmware, /modem & etc.

6) support for all partitions necessary to run any particular phone, not the case with the msm8960 phones.

Thank You all for the Great recovery!
