I'm using this recovery and I'm happy with it.

but I have rom with ota updates, and twrp is recomended for ota's to work. Doeas anybody know that otas will work with this recovery?

tnx
[HTC One X] asp2010:
Since PhilZ is based on clockworkmod, I reckon OTAs made for CWM should work with it just fine. Just don't take my word for it and make a backup, in case things go south :D
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Updates probably won't work, let the phone download the ota and let it boot into recovery ..... if its not working you should see some error message in the recovery. If that's the case you flash the ota manually from the download folder. No biggie

[MENTION=231896]dev[/MENTION] who made the recovery : Its fantastic all other recoveries like twrp and cwm didnt worked with touch. philz is only the one recovery where touch works and i can mount sdcard and use adb commands
[HTC One X] kempshott:
Same for me. Zip appears to flash OK under CWM but nothing has changed when I reboot into recovery - still get CWM.

Can you "fastboot flash recovery" a zip file rather than a .img file? If not, is there a .img version?

EDIT D'oh!. The .img is inside the zip! Installing that way worked.
[HTC One X] Nith2:
This may sound super stupid but I have followed the instructions to install and it will not replace current CWM Recovery that is installed, how to I get around this? I can not update my current ROM because it is an AROMA installer.

Take the recovery .img file from the zip and flash that one. The zip is meant for CWM installing but because of S-on, we have to flash the recovery through the bootloader.

Just installed this recovery, and everything works like a charm!

But I have a question - when select "Reboot System Now", there's a menu to select Disable Flash Recovery or not.

I dunno what this option does, and after some searching, it seems only works for Samsung devices.

Does this option also effects One X?

If I select "Disable Flash Recovery", can I still be able to flash back to stock recovery or other recoveries?

And one minor thing, if enter "Reboot System Now" menu, select +go back+ option will not go back, it still reboots.
[HTC One X] Phil3759:
it's exactly what it should do
[HTC One X] teemo:
I found it confusing too. The text gave me the idea that something was wrong.

"Disable Flash Recovery" Hell no, I want to use again!

Is the meaning simply "Exit Recovery" ?
[HTC One X] ChiDi9901:
Me too, I tried all, go back, disable recovery and "no". Everything the same. The device just reboots normally.

[HTC One X] Phil3759:
Could be your rom recreating the permissions on culprit file

It is a shell script that flashes stock recovery on boot if it detects a modification
[HTC One X] h3110:
Thanks for your reply.

In fact, I'm using a One X, which have been flashed many custom recoveries, and it never flashes back to stock recovery itself.

And it's running a stock rom, only rooted.

So I guess the "Disable Flash Recovery" option may be unnecessary for our One X.

Regards.
[HTC One X] Phil3759:
delete this file or ensure your ROM stops creating it:

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh

I'm just started to use this recovery, because the touch of the official cwm recovery was broken. Touch works fine here, but is it normal when I mount the USB Storage that it copy just around 3MB/s? Because on the official cwm recovery I get between 15-20MB/s. So that's a really big difference.
[HTC One X] Phil3759:
Maybe [MENTION=4258433]mdmower[/MENTION] can help looking at it

It's probably related to the new kernel he provided to fix touch or some mismatch between kernel and not updated drivers

[HTC One X] JonasL1:

It's one of the most downloaded among devices I support, so you should be able to flash it if you do things right

I can confirm this, though it is not an issue for me, since I copy most of my files over WiFi.

On another note, one thing that has been happening to me for awhile, but haven't been able to find exactly what triggers it is unwanted restarts. Though I'm not 100% sure, I think after installing a ROM that has an Aroma installer (like Maximus) and choosing not to reboot the phone at the dialog, pressing the software back button a couple of times causes the phone to reboot. Is anyone else getting anything similar to this?

Hi [MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION]

i have a small request (big in functionality) for you.

i've come up with a way to update the kernel on our phone without fastboot (A PC)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2413561

i wont bore you with the details...

what i'd like to do, is allow this to be done directly through recovery... with little user effort.

so what i suggest and i really hope you can make this work...

add an option (e.g enable KL flashing through Zip)

when the user tries to flash a zip and the script in it tried to flash a kernel using these methods

package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/LNX");
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p4");
write_raw_image("boot.img", boot);

to extract that kernel and unpack it to a zimage and ramdisk.

Do you think you can help me with that?
[HTC One X] Phil3759:
You can extract to /tmp and start a shell script to do this. Shell scripts can be started from updater-script

Search for edify scripting
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
I know... And there is no need for the shell use...

As I currently do it through the OS,

What I'm trying to get to is a fully natural way to do it...

And the easiest way is through the recovery.

Your way would involve every rom and kernel dev.

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] Phil3759:
I do not get well what you are trying to do

Maybe explain it a bit more, mainly the scripting you do
[HTC One X] asp2010:
As far as I understand, he wants you to add a special option to the recovery for One X users. We currently can't flash kernels through recovery, since we don't have S-OFF and the htcdev unlock doesn't allow recovery to write to the boot partition. This option would use the method he has developed to install the kernel, going around this htcdev limitation. He can already do it from the OS, but a recovery option would make it much easier for people who don't understand this and can't flash kernels with fastboot :)

Sent using xda app-developers app
[HTC One X] Phil3759:
I can look at it
[MENTION=618483]Thunder07[/MENTION] just send exact details you want to implement as I have sadly no time to read all the thread and unpack your zip files to look at how to enable this
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
1) We need an option to enable this..... and allow you to choose a flashing location (/system, /data, /sdcard, disable)

(this should be a setting option)

after enabling it

2) during normal zip flashing, you unpack the boot img into zimage & Ramdisk and copy them into those location choosen previously in the previous option(1)

Implementation:

1st you extract the boot img by hooking into one/all of these 3 methods.

this way, you'll be able to get the location of the boot.img

package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/LNX");
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p4");
write_raw_image("boot.img", boot);

after you extract it, let say to /tmp/x.img, you must unpack it.

after unpacking we need to tell the KL kernel where to find the new kernel,

this can be in /system /data /sdcard partition... so again this depends on option (1)

unpackbootimg /tmp/x.img /tmp/unpacked/
cp /tmp/unpacked/* /system/boot/KRF

echo /system/boot/KRF/x.img-zimage>/system/boot/kernel
echo /system/boot/KRF/x.img-ramdisk.gz>/system/boot/ramdisk

you could sum this up into a batch script (after extracting the boot img)

rm -R %1/boot/KRF/* <--- this line is just for cleaning the directory
mkdir %1/boot/KRF <--- making sure the directory exist
unpackbootimg /tmp/%2 %1/boot/KRF <-- unpacking the x.img into zimage & ramdisk.gz

echo %1/boot/KRF/%2-zimage>/system/boot/kernel <-- telling KL Kernel where is the zimage
echo %1/boot/KRF/%2-ramdisk.gz>/system/boot/ramdiskl <-- telling KL Kernel where is the ramdisk

%1 would be the choosen option from option (1)
%2 would be the name of the boot.img taken from the 3 methods

Lastly And this is me going overboard(or it might just be easier to add this option instead??)​

if you add a special(KL) zip install option... and it would work like a regular install zip option...

but instead as you choose to flash the zip it would prompt you to choose kernel install location(/system /data /sdcard)...

then weather you want to unpack both zimage&ramdisk, just zimage, just ramdisk

thinking about this.. this "might" work better, as it's more versatile & you'd be adding an extra option, instead of messing with existing one..

so it would be easy to implement into your recovery updates?​
