I can build from the stock 10.1 CWM

what should I do to overcome it, THX
[Android Software Development] Ryuinferno:
Is that even the way to sync the AOSP source? You need to replace the bootable/recovery folder in the full build environment, repo init the Philz recovery repo will not work...
[Android Software Development] feiplane:
you mean download the source zip from Phil's git and replace those to bootable/recovery folder in the stock cm source folder?

do I need to delete all files in the original bootable/recovery folder?

sorry, i'm new to all these things, still not so sure the correct steps to do it

[Android Software Development] feiplane:
Sir Phil,

Does the latest version of your recovery required CM10.2 branch to build? or CM10.1 is fine?

I compiled the stock CM10.1's CWM recently, everything went well.

When I tried the CM10.2 branch today, compile is ok, but after I flashed it to my JB 4.1.2 device, it just gives me black screen with flashes in certain interval when going into recovery mode.

Is it that the CM10.2's CWM not compatible with JB 4.1.2 device?

THX
[Android Software Development] Phil3759:
You probably have to fix your devices specific graphics.c file
[Android Software Development] feiplane:
ok, I'll try this later, thx

my build environment is all messed up, I wonder why myself

once starts building recoveryimage, it will end up gives me a lot of read only filesystem errors then just stopped

the working folder has a lock icon over it as well, a restart of Ubuntu will fix it but the problem comes back once building recoveryimage process runs...

Often it is a low memory issue

Increase swap or memory allocated to your virtual machine / linux box
[Android Software Development] feiplane:
too late to get this info, precious vdisk already deleted:crying:

I just allocated 50G for previous vdisk, I separated two different branches(CM-10.1 and .2) to 2 working folders, I think that's the reason probably.

The vbox does provide a feature to resize it, but the tragic is I created a format that is not supported by vbox to resize, have to do all initial works over again, another disaster:crying::crying:

anyway, Thanks a lot for your helps, really appreciate it:o
[Android Software Development] Phil3759:
I meant virtual memory, ram...
[Android Software Development] feiplane:
yes, of course I know what you meant but the fact is, it was working previously with same memory setting,

[Android Software Development] feiplane:
It's me again, I've search through many resoures but still can't get it done, I already got lots of help from you but have no choice, have to ask for your help once again, hope you don't mind.

As what I mentioned earlier, about the CM10.2 CWM black screen issue, you told me that to deal with the graphics.c, but I found out that both CM10.1 and .2's graphics.c are actually identical, since Cm10.1's is working, I can't see any reason why CM10.2's is not, there might be something else to cause it from working properly. All the article I searched said about black screen but with adb accessible, but that is not in my case, I can't even access to the adb.

Do you have other idea to trace this issue?

Thank you.

Since fix permissions has been removed is there a way to do that? Cause even though you tell that's useless now, sometimes it used to help me with solving fc problems... Thanks
[Android Software Development] ajhavery:
The recovery reboots the phone when wipe option is chosen.

It's like when I click on wipe data/factory reset, then it wipes data and asks to press back button.

When I press back button, it reboots the phone.

Then I have to pull the battery out and press the required key combination to boot into recovery mode.

The situation is more painful when you have done full wipe because after reboot, you get into bootloop since there is no rom to boot in.

My details are:

Device: Galasy S4 GT-I9500

Recovery: philz touch 5.15.0

The problem only comes with philz touch. I never had it with twrp or cwm.

I like this recovery but don't you it because of this problem of rebooting after any wipe option chosen.

Kindly suggest.
[Android Software Development] Stickypinkyfinger:
Good bit of kit for the phone. Was wondering if its possible to make this password protected so the main user ONLY has access to change the ROMs. I think this feature is needed to help security of our phones as if our phone goes missing is easy for someone to flash a new ROM if a ROM zip file is on our SD card. Is this possible to be password protected?
[Android Software Development] Unjustified Dev:
That's crazy if the knew how to flash a ROM they obviously could Odin recovery or different recovery again which would remove the password Lol. Makes more sense to have it protected so people who reboot your phone to recovery by accident don't jack you up.
[Android Software Development] Stickypinkyfinger:
Sorry smart ass not crazy just stating an idea. I don't understand why people like yourself put stupid reply on people who have genuine ideas. If you don't like the idea then don't waste your life in replying to it. The question wasn't to you ANYWAY! but as you took time out to try sound smart. NO NOT everyone knows how to Odin flash so you shouldn't think you know it all as obviously YOU DONT. I know people who know how to flash zips but don't know what to do on a Mac or PC to flash a ROM to there phone. Hopefully now you understand that NOT everyone knows this.
[Android Software Development] Unjustified Dev:
I hope you get banned you took it to far. I obviously just stated that as you just said not everyone knows how to flash a zip. Well if they do obviously they had to know how to flash recovery first. Your just taking it to far to even curse on xda. I see what developers get on xda. [MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION] thanks for your hard work. I probably sounded smart because I am its not something I intend on doing. :) Enjoy your day.

I share [MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION] opinion

If you searched before posting, you'd have seen this was discussed, debated and answered so many times

For now, I have no plans to add it any soon. It is on a "to look at list", when I'll have time, if stock cwm did not add it meanwhile

If password pseudo security is so important for you, TWRP offers this already. It is a good recovery alternative

Hello,

[Android Software Development] haybill:
Sorry in advance if this has been asked and answered--I have seen in previous posts that Philz Recovery will restore TWRP backups as well as CWM and that having compression enabled in the TWRP backup isn't such a brilliant idea--having said that I have been using compression on my TWRP backups for quite some time and am wondering whether, apart from increasing the Restore times---are there any other disadvantages to having compressed backups--I have moved from TWRP to Philz latest but, should I need to restore a previous Nandroid, and it happens to have been compressed--are there any greater chances that the restore might fail--or, is it simply that I will have to wait longer??

Thanks.

BTW--it's quite some time since I used Philz Recovery [ maybe more than a year] and, Boy, is it looking sweeet.
[Android Software Development] Phil3759:
There are no issues with compression at all
[Android Software Development] haybill:
Thanks for that--good to know, I have several compressed nandroids.

One other question- is there the option, in Philz Touch, for making compressed backups? Because I make Nandroids quite often and when using compression it can save quite some space?
[Android Software Development] MaliciousBanjo:

PhilZ Touch speed issues:

I have found the small bug that was causing PhilZ Touch to be much slower than stock CWM or TWRP

https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/philz_touch_cwm6/commit/3788de16121801f002f9a5264f1ff635b88a3c00

I merged the changes into cm-10.2 but do not plan to release an update for cm-10.1

That would involve a lot of work on my home made scripts as I moved to cm-10.2 now

Hopefully, devices with a cm-10.2 tree would get an update

In any case, for most phones, this had no effect. Only S4 was affected it seems

For developers wishing to port open source version to old devices not having a cm-10.2 tree, I advice merging the commit mentioned above
[Android Software Development] haybill:
Gotta say Thanks here--used up my 8 hanks for today, already--

Woops--sorry--set compression to low, giving about 30% with no impact on speed.

Thank you for pointng out my dumbness--was I wrong to answer the other guy's question--if so, apologies, especially if my answer was off the mark.

Sorry for what you will think is another dumb question--but--I have just made a Backup using Philz, I searched through all the options, Custom Backup, TWRP backup settings and so on--but, I could not find the option to make a 'Compressed' backup-- so, I made a normal CWM Backup--could someone please help me find the compression option--Low??

And--I'm on a 4.3 leaked firmware ROM and at every reboot I am asked whether I want to 'Fix The Root' because Root may have been lost--the Dev, in the ROM thread states that we can click 'No', saying that Root is inbuilt in the ROM,but I am worried that this may lose my Root--what is the general opinion?? Please?
[Android Software Development] Phil3759:
v5.18.0 ** Beta ** - Released for i9505

This should support 4.3.x Roms in backup/restore selinux context

I tested on latest nightly a backup/restore and all seem fine

Let me know if it works
[Android Software Development] Phil3759:
Thank you for your donation :angel:

You have to select the backup format menu and set it to tar.gz

After that, you can select compression level

Using fast or low is recommended. You get a major speed increase and up to 40-45% size compression

Try the latest Beta for 4.3 Roms as it is the only one correctly supporting selinux context

You cannot flash non Samsung things on stock recovery. That's why we need a custom recovery

Ok. So therefore I have to Root and install CWM recovery by some other method first and then Install your Philz Stuff :o

But its mentioned in OP that the Philz Zip file can be flashed Stock 3e recovery..whats the prob then?
[Android Software Development] beardymarrow:
You don't need to have root, but you do need to have a custom recovery, or use odin from a pc to flash the recovery, or have root and use mobile odin. You can't flash philz from stock recovery (and the op doesn't say that you can).

I am having trouble launching a NANDROID backup from ROM Manager into 5.18.2. When starting a backup ROM Manager says it will back up to extSdcard/clockworkmod/backup.

When Philz 5.18.2 launches I get an error message saying "unknown volume for path [/external_sd/clockworkmod/backup/filename]

Can't mount backup path."

I am going to downgrade Philz CWM and try it again.

---------- Post added at 01:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 AM ----------

I downgraded to Phiiz 5.0.8.5 and was able to launch a NANDROID from ROM Manager with no issues. It looks like the change in the ExtSDCard drive naming broke something between Philz and ROM Manager. For now I can stick with 5.0.8.5.

One other anomaly is that ROM Manager said that I was running CWN 6.0.4.4 instead of 6.0.3.7 which is really strange. At least I did not get the nag screen that there is an upgrade for CWM.
