I don't know... if he is as he call himself "old fashioned" - CMW if far older recovery, that TWRP. I don't know about the updates, may be there is nothing to update, so they stopped? And TWRP still has some bugs, so everyone waiting for updates. I don't know... all about old fashioned, that was my point.
[HTC One X+] clarkey02:
I went with TWRP because it seems it's the more popular choice, I didn't vouch for the all in one tool kit because I like to do this the manual way.

Currently got a stock ROM, with ROOT + TWRP. I haven't flahsed yet due to the number of issues I see appearing on this forum with so called 'bricked' devices, there was never this many for the desire hd/sensation/One x.

I'm pretty sure the way to flash from this point would be

1. Download ROM and place it on the phone

2. Take a backup via recovery

3. Flash boot.img

4. Wipe phone

5. Install ROM

6 Reboot

Does this sound correct?
[HTC One X+] ratcom:
just remember NEVER wipe "internal storage" or "format data" within recovery ;)
[HTC One X+] clarkey02:
Cheers Ratcom, I'm currently waiting on CM 4.2.2 to be uploaded, they currently only have the 4.2.1 build.
[HTC One X+] Synoptex:
Sounds good.
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
This is assuredly in direct relation with the majority of those cases.

People want to root and customize with a Swiss knife tool and I can assure you that something is wrong to do it with this tool. If you read all the so called "bricked my..." threads, they all were using this all in one tool, then something wen't wrong and they can't figure out what could be the cause simply because they haven't read, they don't know the basics of those procedures or they don't have any king of prerequisite installed in their computer. The tool is supposedly "doing all for them". Except debugging the procedure when everything goes bad.

It is so simple and rewarding to do all this -the old fashioned way- also if something suddenly goes bonk, it's so easy to know exactly where the procedure is failing.

----

As for your procedure it is all good, in Recovery when you have a backup of your actual ROM, in the Wipe menu select Factory Reset, then after select System. You're all good to flash your new ROM after that.

Don't forget to : fastboot erase cache after your boot.img flashing.

Have fun!
[HTC One X+] clarkey02:
I've got to the point now where I've got CM10 on the phone (not installed) and I've got the boot.img in the same folder as the fastboot.

If memory servers me correctly:

I should boot into recovery

hit fastboot

flash the boot.img via command line

go into recovery

factory reset/wipe cache

install ROM

reboot

Apologies if I'm being very tentative, I'm just making sure. I have done a backup while in TWRP (If the flash goes wrong can I simply restore from recovery using that backup?)

I'm into two minds to do this, I miss installing custom ROM's but I don't want to ruin the phone. If only there was a video tutorial !!!!!
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
You should have all you need in this tutorial watch the last section of it.
[HTC One X+] clarkey02:
I attempted and successfully flashed today, currently running CM10 unofficial (Is there an official version? for X+?)

Cheers again for all the pointers!
[HTC One X+] Lloir:
if you want official go ahead and make it official..

I just wiped internal storage and formatted data...!!

I didn't know that I can't wipe internal storage and format data... I was trying install a SlimBean Rom. It tells me to "wipe data, format system (in mounts and storage). I clearly misunderstood it. What should I do now? PLEASE HELP ME!! I have to install zip files from my sdcard, but now I can't find any of them! :crying: Is my phone bricked yet? Is there anything I can do to get my phone back?

With locked bootloader u can flash only those stock kernel which is not modified or the kernel attributes aren't changed.

Hello, Everybody!

CAUTION : I'm not responsible for any damage to your device.Use at your own risk

I want to introduce to you a Team Win Recovery Project 2.4.1.0 for Onda V972.

I think it will be usefull and for Onda V812, and V971, maybe other A31 tablets.

That TWRP works on 32 Gb version of Onda V972.

Installation TWRP Recovery on Onda V972

Before installing TWRP, you need to get root. All latest stock firmware comes with root, you need only install Superuser or SuperSU from Play Market

Download the Onda_V972_TWRP.zip from that post and extract it to any folder on your computer.

Copy all three files from your computer internal disk (ONDA_MID on you computer and /sdcard on tablet)

Install the application Terminal on the tablet and run it.

From the terminal emulator enter the following command:

su

Press Enter. Allow access to the application or SuperSU SuperUser

busybox sh /sdcard/install-recovery.sh

Press Enter. This command installs new recovery to your tablet.

busybox sh /sdcard/reboot-recovery.sh

Press Enter. This will load the device mode recovery.

You can also use the standard way of loading in recovery - While the tablet is off press Home button and holding it press the Power button untill 4 core logo appears.

If something goes wrong, you need to flash the firmware via Stock PhoenixSuit and during flashing select "YES" to the question about formatting.

It is not bug free version, there is a error: Unable to mount '/recovery' I will try to fix all bugs.

I repeat: Use it on your own risk!

Thanks to Dees_Troy and all TWRP team for great work!

Tried and installed! However it boots into the device recovery....no TWRP!! ..........did I commit an error??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ankar84:
Probably yes, a mistake was made.

If you load the default recovery, the installation on TWRP was not successful.

Did you get done after command busybox sh install-recovery.sh?

Do you got root?

Please, do screenshots of installation process and post them here.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aryanitinkumar:
Thanks......it worked! However, I m not able to make a back up on ext card.......any clues??

Thanks a million ................works great!!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] STEVE_MARS:
Thanks for your Recovery, it´s great ¡¡¡

But don´t mount the external sdcard, and for the developers is very much important.

Can you review this, please?

Sorry for my english ;)

TWRP_Onda_v972_ver02

Hi, Steve!

I take this opportunity to thank you for the excellent work SuperNova!

As regards that TWRP, I told, that it`s like an alpha version with a lot of bugs, and not everything working propertly. I just tested installing custom rom (SuperNova 3.1 and Iberica v.2) and it`s worked. And on my forum I asked people who have 32 Gb version of tablet if they can to install custom on their tablet, and they confirmed, that it`s work pretty good.

Just want to clarify a bit more on that as is currently working of that alpha version of TWRP.

When you boot into TWRP without external microSD card your internal memory (/sdcard on tablet and ONDA_MID on computer) will be Internal Storage in Mount menu of TWRP

When you boot into TWRP with external microSD card it will mount like a Internal Storage again, and there is no tablet real /sdcard mounted.

I also would like to note that in the Mount menu, item Mount SDCard will not work! Never! Now we are working on fix that problem.

But now, I made a new version, lets call it TWRP_Onda_v972_ver02 and it can mount both ext-sd and internal memory. But ext-sd you need to mount manualy, and we are working on that too.

In new version:

Internal Storage is a internal tablet memory (/sdcard on tablet and ONDA_MID on computer) Mounts at /sdcard

SD-Ext is a External microSD card, don`t forget to mount it manualy. Mounts at /sd-ext
[Miscellaneous Android Development] STEVE_MARS:
Many thanks, my friend.

Now I can do the next Supernova wirh Aroma Installer :good:.

Greetings.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aryanitinkumar:
Thanks ankar84! It really had been so helpful and I had been able to install both SN & Iberica successfully :good:. Can you please guide how to update the new recovery on the earlier one. Will the new recovery overwrite the earlier one by simple installation?

Thanks in advance!!

Thanks ankar84! It really had been so helpful and I had been able to install both SN & Iberica successfully . Can you please guide how to update the new recovery on the earlier one. Will the new recovery overwrite the earlier one by simple installation?

Thanks in advance!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ankar84:
Hi, aryanitinkumar!

New recovery always overwrite the earlier one, so there is no big manual about installing new TWRP on old TWRP.

Today I compiled a new TWRP version for Onda V972 based on lastest stable TWRP 2.4.4.0

The internal and external memory mounts properly.

The internal memory is mounted in /sdcard

External memory is installed in the /external_sd

You can store backups on both the internal and the external memory.

External card mounted automatically.

Checked the backup and restore - worked great!

But now I publised on 4pda.ru to 32Gb version owners test it on their tablets. If everything will be good, I will publish it here!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aryanitinkumar:
Thank you Ankar84 for your revert!

Would certainly wait for the latest version!!!:good:

Would you care to share the 4pda link would certainly test it as well!!!

Thanks!!

Envoyé depuis mon GT-I9100 avec Tapatalk
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aryanitinkumar:
Yeah!! Its fully compatible....works gr8 for me....however, I have installed the first version Onda_V972_TWRP!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Toncino:
Hi everybody, I do need some help. A few days ago, the tablet badly cusched. After restarting it, I noticed some application were missing, so I restarted again and got the green Emergency screen...

I wiped the tablet with PhoenixSuit and reinstalled the rom and everything went fine, but now every time I restart the tablet it looks like \cache and \data are wiped. That is, if I change settings or install any application and restart the tablet, these are all missing as if the tablet has just been flashed new. This happens with every rom I tried to flash. I confirm that I have no problem in accessing the recover (both stock and CWM).

As you can guess the tablet in these conditions is useless, any suggestion will be very appreciated!

TWRP based on lastest 2.4.4.0 for Onda V972 by ankar84

[Miscellaneous Android Development] bierfleske:

I'm running the new 2.0 firmware and it works great.

I can create backups and mount partitions.

The only error i get is "E:Unable to mount '/recovery'"
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ankar84:
Green screen not depends on TWRP. It is a file checking procedure.

About 32gb - I don`t know work it or not, I wrote it.

Try to flash lastest stock rom with Phoenix Suite with formating to solve your problem.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aryanitinkumar:
Great Job!! :cool:

TWRP2500 on Onda_v972_V2-422-v23beta

I tried using it on Onda_v972_V2-422-v23beta released yesterday and really had great problems.

TWRP installed as usual procedure but the tab won't reboot into recovery. Further got stuck up at the 3rd boot logo for about 30 odd minutes. Even forced closing would only result in automatic restart and being stuck up. Luckily could flash it back to V2.0.

Please guide if the recovery ought to be changed or its a lapse on to my end!!

Thanks!!

has anyone tried to make a port of this recovery for the new versions of the firmware 4.2.2?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ankar84:
Hi, aryanitinkumar!

First of all I want to tell everybody why I didn't rush to make TWRP for 4.2.2. It is just because I don't think that it's official stable Onda release. It is only beta, and I'm not really sure if it's Onda did it.

But, Steve ask me to build TWRP for 4.2.2, and proposed his help, so I decided to make it.

But there is a big difference in partition table in 4.2.2, so I need you guys help me.

Can someone who have 4.2.2 give me result of command cat /proc/partitions with extermal SD card pluged in?

Thx!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aryanitinkumar:
Hi Anton!

Thanks for your revert!

Actually I flashed back to 2.01 as the initial 4.2.2 wasn't working for me any. Well, I m travelling at the moment but would surely install Kasty 4.2.2 rooted 6.zip and post the results as required ASAP

Cheers!! :good:
