Installation aborted error in Philz recovery

[MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION] I have tried flashing certain AOSP based ROMs, or ROMs like Jellybam that are based on CM/AOKP/PA through the PhilZ touch recovery after which i get the error : Installation aborted. Is this a recurrent problem? The thread of the Supernexus ROM for the N7000 specifically states that Philz recovery causes certain problems while flashing AOSP ROMs, the link for the thread is http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2076697 . Could you help me know if this problem still exists and if yes, what could be the cause?

This is by far the best recovery I have ever used. If I had a paypal account I would donate to you. On another note, is there a way to change the clock from 24 hour to 12 hour? If not no biggie. I will probably never use another recovery anyway. This has everything I've ever wanted in a recovery. Thanks for all your hard work.

2 questions.

How do I name the backup?

Also, how can I have it read my TWRP NAND, or find them...?
[Android Software Development] Phil3759:
It should detect them automatically

Use custom backup and restore menu for that
[Android Software Development] ScottBroker:
other question. This seems to take at least twicw as long as TWRP for a backup and a HUGE amount of space, over 4 gigs????
[Android Software Development] JEANRIVERA:
hi phil i feel kind of ignored, could you tell me if your recovery is going to support newest touchscreen firmware for the HTC One? or i need to revert back to original touchscreen firmware to be able to use touch in your recovery ?
[Android Software Development] danarama:
Whatever! Philz recovery is built from ClockworkMod recovery, which is built from CM11, so what you "want" doesn't really figure in to it at this point. I'm telling you what you need and that is CM11 source code

[Android Software Development] hawkerpaul:
Hi Phil

I asked this question on the jflte thread, but I suppose its better to ask here.

I was wondering if the "choose zip from last install folder" could be enhanced slightly.

When you go into this option, the Back key, and the +++Go Back+++ functionality will both take you to the top level menu

I was wondering if you can implement a way to go back one level in the directory structure instead.

I realise the back key and +++ go back +++ functionality is inherited in all screens, so perhaps you could add a "back one level" as the first option of this screen?

Many thanks

[Android Software Development] yuweng:
it is shoxxy that help find out that the local_manifest.xml also works on his Qualcomm Huawei G510 . . . :highfive:

There are hundreds if not thousands of Android devices that doesn't have cm tree & using mkvendor.sh should be able to build a working PhilZ Touch & the Part Source local_manifest.xml builts kernels too . . . Tooks me alot of bandwidth & time to identified it & if remembered correctly, i could even bring it down to below 50 out of 400 over unused cm projects if using prebuilt kernel for building PhilZ Touch . . . :cowboy: You'll need to do some minor editting if you're using . . .

BOARD_RECOVERY_USE_LIBTAR := true then you'll have to delete below line at local_manifest.xml

<remove-project name="CyanogenMod/android_external_libtar" />

and also add below to the most bottom after CyanogenMod/android_bootable_recovery to remove recovery-cm credits to shoey63 for the tip . . .

<remove-project name="[COLOR="Blue"]CyanogenMod/android_bootable_recovery[/COLOR]" />
<remove-project name="CyanogenMod/android_bootable_recovery-cm" /> [COLOR="Red"]<- Add this new line[/COLOR]

if later version of PhilZ Touch doesn't build then obviously some of the remove-project might be needed . . . :o

Eg: if it complains something about bash then just delete that remove-project line & it should work . . . :fingers-crossed:
[Android Software Development] Phil3759:
I can make it ALWAYS go back one menu above

Adding a top extra menu is out of question though, code design wise
[Android Software Development] hawkerpaul:
Thanks Phil

Not sure if we may have got our wires crossed though.

I'm talking about going back one level in the current directory structure, not going back one level in the menu system

Eg.

choose zip from last install folder

this opens say /storage/sdcard1/flash/recovery

Then hit back (or whatever), so that it then goes to /storage/sdcard1/flash
[Android Software Development] Phil3759:
It is there since a year: "Choose zip Using Free Browse Mode"

It will let you define a default start path and freely browse up to the root
[Android Software Development] hawkerpaul:

It doesnt for me sorry Phil

Thanks for helping in resolving the issues I was facing while trying to build your recovery on my own. I hope that now aroma installer will be fixed as I am using a custom KitKat kernel and have been testing it for a while without any issues.

Now that I have successfully built the recovery and also I am planning to continually update and be in sync with your updates, how would you like me to share the recovery? In my own thread in n7100 forum or here in your thread? Please advice.

[Android Software Development] Phil3759:
What if you start by reading the FAQ?
[Android Software Development] Phil3759:
Since the device already has its own thread and unless you add new things / modify the recovery, I suggest you do in existing device thread

That way, I can monitor it and continue the support + upload to goo if no bugs reported

You can also add your name in the About menu so that people know it is your build

If it is ok, post there and I will add you as OP to even edit first post if you like to add custom things, links to your thread...
[Android Software Development] s3icc0:
sorry missed FAQ ... stopped reading with changelogs ...

anyway it is the same guide as from my question ...

QUOTE=Phil3759;39433857]How to Install

This will depend on your device. Please look first for help in your device specific thread.

Provided instructions here ARE NOT VALID for all phone

Recovery (.zip) packages instructions

They come in the form of .zip files that can be flashed in cwm recovery

Download philz_touch_xxx.zip file

Put the previously downloaded philz_touch_xxx.zip file on your sd card

Boot into recovery (volume up+home+power)

Select "Install zip" and browser to your downloaded zip file.

Now select the philz_touch_xxx.zip fileyou copied in previous step

You will have PhilZ Touch Recovery flashed

Odin packages instructions: Samsung Only

They come in the form of .tar.md5 file

boot into download mode

start odin3 and configure it as in picture below

connect phone in download mode to PC via USB

press start to flash the tar.md5 package

normally, phone should auto-reboot into recovery.

If it reboots into main system and your recovery remains stock, repeat above steps and untick "autoreboot" in odin. Once flash is done, keep pressing the 3 buttons combo to for a reboot into recovery.You should see the new CWM

when in recovery, if you choose option "reboot system now" and you get "yes - disable flash recovery", select that option to avoid stock recovery overwriting cwm

to remove yellow triangle, use TriangleAway

Root your phone and reset Yellow Triangle

start odin3 and configure it as in picture below <----- I can't seem to find the picture, any ideas? Thanks.

Something changed with the 6.4x releases that no longer works with my Moto G. It allowed me to change my sdcard target to /data/media but now it's stuck on /data/media/0 . In addition i can't change my compression level. It's like Philz simply won't write any files however when i change the GUI those settings stick.

"Recovery has a menu named "security" and within there are 3 options."

i can't seem to find this menu...? :rolleyes::angel:
[Android Software Development] danarama:
This was a suggestion, not an actuality
[Android Software Development] Riekr:
ah ok, now as a new zip file came out removing lockscreen after flash, and as an n5 owner with relocked bootloader, that would be a very appreciated feature :)

the only thing i'm not sure is about storing the password in internal storage as attaching the phone to a pc via usb/mtp would let retrieve the password
[Android Software Development] danarama:
That would be why you'd have to have an Android Password / PIN / Pattern lock. I had considered all eventualities I could think of including that specifically.
[Android Software Development] Riekr:
yes i'm aware of it and i have it but it's not good to let a, let's say, a trojan get that password when connected legitimately especially if some user has the same password for more than accessing the recovery.

this may be somehow mitigated if the password it's not in plain text, storing the password as a cryptographic hash would be at least better, storing that file in place accessible only from recovery would be pefect. (on n5 is maybe chmod/chown is allowed on internal storage?)
[Android Software Development] danarama:
So your fear is that if you "legitimately" connect your phone to a Windows PC, someone may have written a trojan to look specifically for recovery passwords, so they can then later boot into recovery and use adb to steal your data?

If you're connecting to a PC with an unlocked phone, why wouldn't they just steal your data at that time? They wouldn't even need to physically access your device. It would actually be much easier to steal your data this way.

Anyway its all pointless as the feature doesn't exist, but IMHO, pain text is the best option, so that you as a human can still access the password file in Android in case there are problems. Just dont set the same PIN as your credit card
[Android Software Development] Riekr:
many ppl use the same password for everything, i'm not speaking about me but i'm not the only one using this recovery.

it's not a problem for my home or work pc but what if i need to transfer a file from/to a pc in a internet cafe?

the attack would be embarrassingly simple, anyway we are speaking about suggestions not about what actually exists.
[Android Software Development] danarama:
I think those who would be concerned enough about the security of their data on their internal memory to lock their boorloader and use a protected recovery would be too paranoid to:

1) Use the same password for everything

2) Transfer files to and from their secured device to internet Cafe PC's

Lets move on please

got your pov, moving on

http://d-h.st/IaC
[Android Software Development] Bhargav97:
[MENTION=4630197]balliboxer[/MENTION],

Availability of CF-Root and a Stock recovery just doesn't matter. You need a working device-tree for your device in CM sources and then just replace "/bootable/recovery" folder with the PhilZ sources (given in post #2 on first page of this thtead). More details also in the same post #2. I guess this is the third time you're asking for support of this device. But Phil3759 doesn't maintain devices now (because full version is on github now). So compile yourself OR tell any CM developer of your device to do that. Compiling yourself is easy, just get familiar yourself with some guides on xda-university.

your recovery use separated DT. have you tried adding extracted dt.img (recovery.img-dtb) to your device-tree (device/<your_manufacturer>/<your_device>/) and add this line to your BoardConfig.mk ?

BOARD_MKBOOTIMG_ARGS := --dt device/<your_manufacturer>/<your_device>/<your_dt.img_filename>

Can you make a recovery file for Zenfone 4... I have manged to root my device. pls make a recovery for zenfone 4.......

looking for your help....
[Android Software Development] jurben:
sorry,

i think i misunderstood you. i thought you build philz cwm with prebuilt kernel because i saw stock recovery link at one of the posts.

abot the dt-image, if you build philz cwm with kernel from source then you can't use extracted dt.img. you just have to define that the device use separate dt-image, then it will be generated and automatically included in the fimal recovery image.

about the defconfig: i don't know about that.
[Android Software Development] RVR:
how do i define that
[Android Software Development] jurben:
add this line into your BoardConfig.mk

BOARD_KERNEL_SEPARATED_DT := true

but first make sure that your device really uses separated dt.img. i recheck the posts and realize that the one who posted stock recovery is not you. i've check that stock recovery and yes it has separated dt.img. use AIK to unpack your stock recovery. if there is split_img/*-dtb then your device use separated dt.img.

You may need to define this too

TARGET_USES_QCOM_BSP := true

recent qualcomm device need this for the graphics handling.
[Android Software Development] RVR:
okay thanx .. il check it out

if the dt.img is der i hv to add it to the device folder right/..??
