Version 1.0.3.5

Improved exit script, now it checks for working bootloaders and will skip otherwise. as well as avoids writing to your nand if you dont need the auto loki (as in the boot.img is already patched :) )

flash in recovery to update :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ct_tec313:
tried to flash this using twrp after flashing twrp still pops up as my recovery any sugestions????
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
Same issue here. Flashed the new one over 1.0.3.4. Still says 1.0.3.4.

EDIT: Found the issue, inside the zip file recovery.img was renamed incorrectly to recovery.lok so it's not being flashed with the script.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shabbypenguin:
sorry guys, issue with my hosting, links being updated here in a min
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] loonie01:
Quick question. What is auto loki? I'm coming from a GS3 and this is new to me. Thanx
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shabbypenguin:
the bootloader exploit tool is called loki, it needs to be run on every kernel put out for use. in an effort to make things easier on kernel devs/rom devs i made this recovery automatically loki kernels for teh att/vzw variants. which means users dont need to worry about if they are loki'd or not, it also means certain things become easier.

for instance att users can now use tmobile roms and have them auto loki'd on the fly :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] open1your1eyes0:
shabbypenguin, just want to let you know that out of all the 3 recoveries out right now yours is my personal favorite (for the reason you list above, CWM, and gestures). You should see if you can update the OP with a method that doesn't rely on one of the other recoveries to flash yours. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bhp090808:
Hey OP... check your pm's when you get a sec. Need your assistance
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shabbypenguin:
op is updated, contains loki flashing guide, and working versions of 1.0.3.5 :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] prstorero:
After doing the adb steps, the device still boots into stock recovery :P This is my first Samsung phone so is there something special I'm missing?

Edit: I decided to first install twrp then just flash it, so it's running now :)

cant get external SD to mount.. anyone else have issues ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tkacer:
Had same issue with my Samsung 64gb card - reformatted in fat32 - problem solved!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] catapilla:
I remember el shabby from my skyrocket days. Word! Thank you for this!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] igotgame:
When you do a wipe like you are about to install a new rom...this doesn't wipe that internal SD card does it (where the download folder resides originally)?

Also, one other question....if I move a nandroid to my external SD card (its over 3GB so trying to save some space)...can I restore the backup from there? Or does it need to stay in the original location which is clockworkmod/backup on the internal SD card?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tkacer:
No it does not - in order to do that you have to go into the Advanced section > Partition external sd card.

No need to manually move - you have the option to backup to external sdcard! However, moving previous backups into the clockworkmod folder on your ext sd card should work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GiantsFan91:
i want to make sure im using right recovery. is this recovery with auto loki? please look at this pic. i know its blurry. please let me know if you want me to re take a pic of recovery. i want to flash hyperdrive rom. thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Jayracer7474:
Thats it, flash away, all the major roms have the loki patches anyways, dont worry just flash like you always do
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GiantsFan91:
can i make backup and restore backup with this recovery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Chaos2092:
I'm making a backup of my rooted stock at this very moment, I got the recovery using that All-in-one utility posted in another thread and so far it seems to be working. I'm going to be flashing Carbon shortly.

EDIT: ...And I hit an error.

'Error while making a backup image of /system!'

I'm guessing because stock uses so much internal memory trying to put it on my external SD card with only a bit over a gig and a half of space remaining probably wasn't the best idea.

EDIT 2: yep, now it says my SD card has 0 space. ****... can I backup to internal memory and wipe without fear of losing the backup?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jlegros:
Do I need this? I downloaded twrp via goo and I'm probably going to install hyperdrive.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jlegros:
Anyone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Protibus:
Many have had issues with ROMs after flashing with TWRP 2.5.0.3 but have had few issues when flashing with this recovery. If you are going to use TWRP use version 2.5.0.2. There are known issues with 2.5.0.3. This recovery will almost guarantee a successful flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jlegros:
Ok so if I already have twrp installed, can I flash this over twrp or what should I do?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Protibus:
Go to page 1 of the OP. There is a download link named CWM-Flashable. Download the zip file and flash using TWRP, boot back up. The next time you boot into recovery, you will have OUDHS CWM recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jlegros:
Ok sweet. Thanks for the info!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] robthefive0:
I got an MD5 Mismatch when I tried to restore a backup. Anyone have a suggestion?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eighty1:
Curious if anyone flashed clockwork recovery in ROM manager?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
Yes I installed the touch version works well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eighty1:
Good to know. You installed it manually or through the app?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
Yes had to donate 2 bucks to install the touch version.

Other wise the original version you can just install.

I just wanted to test it as goo /twrp was having issues with lag and flashing.

* Rom manager
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] eighty1:
I see. The touch version is on the ROM Manager website for download but I hadn't saw anyone mention using it here in the threads. Anyhow, thanks and back on topic.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
Its not loki patched. (I believe)

Saw it as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] p-slim:
I would assume the one on his website and the one in rom manager are the same. I could not figure out how to flash recovery on the S4 manually so I also donated $2 and it works perfectly
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dopediculous:
This Recovery SAVED MY PHONE!

Had twrp and Very long story short, my S4 was borked. So glad I was able to use Odin to put back to stock, flash this and be back up and running without ANY issues. Must have. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] p-slim:
I had the exact same experience. +1 to this recovery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jellydroid13:
Just discovered rainbow mode today and I love it!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Cwoomer:
I'm using the donate version as well from the app and I cannot restore any of the 3 backups that I made with it.

Have you restored any backups with it yet?

---------- Post added at 04:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 PM ----------

I can not restore any back-ups from this recovery or the official CWM recovery. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I heard something about this being a problem previously on some devices. I have been flashing ROMs since my incredible and have ran into many issues. This is not one of them that I have faced yet.

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
I haven't had 1 issue. I even went a far as installing it on my Nexus 7. Works perfect there too. I been flash happy lately lol.

In all cases it creates a md5. And checks it before installing anything. I also tested on internal and external sdcards. Not one issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scott:
So what does one do to invoke the auto-Loki?

IM about to commence on CleanROM ACE for the S4 and this will be an incredible feature to have.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scott:
Nevermind, it just works!

EDIT: It worked the first time but not subsequent flashes?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shawnten:
So if I already have a recovery installed can I just flash the flashable and that is it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TMYINC:
Yep easy as that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shawnten:
for some reason I cant get this to read my ext. sd card. any tips
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] notstevek:
I had a bad experience with this... flsshed via twrp hoping it'd be clockworkmod touch like the gnex... anyway it softbricked after install, said I had no superuser and made me install it and loop booted, somehow lost my twrp backups too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JediMindTrixx:
I have the same issue. I've been doing some testing for sbreen94 and everything is good except OUDHS can't see exfat... Unfortunately, I can't use TWRP (which see my exfat sd card fine) because my phone freeezes on the lock screen with TWRP after the first reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Treken:
Just donated. I really like it so far. I moved away from cwm a good while ago to twrp. Of course, I donated to twrp when I began using it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] zooyork0721:
hey i have this installed and im trying to boot into recovery and its just rebooting the system to start the phone it says its going to start recovery but isnt, i tried using a themed framework i made so i cant boot normally, how would i fix it to boot into the recovery? or at least push the rom's stock framework so i can boot,

On Build 3 of Beans
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Treken:
Pull battery, insert battery, hold volume up + home +power all at the same time. When you see purple text in top left corner of screen quickly release power button while continuing to hold volume up +home buttons. When you see recovery splash screen you can release the other 2 buttons. You should be able to wipe or flash what you need.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] zooyork0721:
thank you :) lol i fixed it right after posting. it randomly decided it wanted love :P and booted into recovery.

thank you for your response though!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] syntrix:
Backups show as 1970, not 2013 :)

Is this a function of the hardware clock not set correctly, or can this be fixed? :)

Any plans for 64GB card support?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lahma69:
Format your 64gb micro sd as fat32 and it will recognize it fine. You will need a special tool such as http://download.cnet.com/EaseUS-Par...4-10863346.html?tag=mncol;pop&cdlPid=10982635 as windows wont format a 64gb as fat32.

Oh and I believe the time stamp problem is a bug in cwm recovery. When I am forced to use cwm, it does the same thing to me. I much prefer TWRP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] naturalstamina:
root then flash?

Its been a while since I rooted a phone, last one was my nexus a couple years back.

I will root according to the main instructions on this site, then I would like to install CWM

after reading through the thread, seems like some are now able to flash through rom manager (regular - free, and touch - $2)

will this work and still have the "loki" functionality?

I am still confused as to what loki is.

and to confirm i can use "CMD" window in Windows to do ADB correct just have to have sdktools installed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mettee:
..ok, I am on this recovery.

I download and save two roms to the the extSD, then verify MD5 sums. Both files verify good, but when I flash them in recovery the install aborts each and every time.

What could be the issue?

ETA: I just was able to flash one of the rom files, latest hyperdrive, went back to do a proper wipe to install and on the next go around it failed as usual?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] syntrix:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=43167630&postcount=136

Start there with the extsd. Where is HD failing, and did you post in the dev thread?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mettee:
My sd card is 16gb and is formatted fat32.

Failure happens within OUDHS cwm, it worked once, then failed on the second attempt. I removed the card after that and checked md5 and it was good.

Seems like recovery is missing a beat someplace. I have not posted in the dev thread.

ETA: If I reboot recovery after I wipe everything for install, it will flash the file that it had found as corrupt on the previous failing attempt.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] silverfang77:
Does this work with AME7 build Galaxy S4?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brandonhatty:
I would assume no. If the me7 bootloader got exploited it would be the hottest thread on xda.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gleggie:
Yes I believe this is still working.

This recovery has been so solid for me, no issues at all
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gt5oh:
I still use this but should I be using something newer for more current roms?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] haza12d:
Do I flash this in Odin?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tkacer:
Nope - flash that zip from your current recovery program (TWRP - CWM - Philz)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] haza12d:
Gotcha. So just to be sure... After rooting (I'm still on MDK) I can install ROM manager to get CWM recovery. Then I can flash this zip?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jamesd1085:
If you plan to flash newer ROMs or any recent aosp you are better off sticking with the cwm version that would be flashed from ROM manager...but sometimes just rooting won't allow flashing from ROM manager or goomanager...the all in one root and recovery tool has a step in between rooting and recovery that cleans up files that have negative effects on custom recovery and sometimes you won't be able to get recovery installed without it...this is not always the case though

wipe vs format

Been using 1.0.3.5 since release. What's the difference between "wipe..." and "format..." in the menus? Will format make me lose root and/or custom recovery,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shabbypenguin:
No one should be using this, it's old and outdated. Cwm has all the features of this and more now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] radpp16:
Well. You have spoken. I will upgrade to latest CWM. It has been with me since GS3 and GS4 root days.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] radpp16:
I downloaded ROM Manager. Purchased in-app Touch 6.0.4.7. Flashed. However, when I reboot into recovery still brings me to OUDhs CWM Touch Recovery 1.0.3.5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shabbypenguin:
i would flash again and see if it is being denied su permissions. im not personally a fan of cwm touch, but i have made the dual touch for a few devices and people seem to like it well enough.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] radpp16:
No dice. I am able to grant permission and even get the "CWM....successfully installed". I emailed tech support.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] egore93:
Flash twrp then flash CWM and see if that fixes it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] calebcabob:
I'm using TWRP. I was a huge faithful fan of CWM until this year whenever I tried flashing touch after recovery problems, it wouldn't let me unless I paid for it over and over...freaking BS is what that is. No thanks, I bought CWM twice already, I'm all set with buying it again. Oh, and absolutely ZERO support!! I tried contacting the dev several times too. How many premium licenses do I need? Play Store knows I own it...BOOO

Go ahead, try for yourself. Good luck. Read the latest reviews on play store;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RypeDub:
Dead links, dead links every where.

Can I get some mirrors pease :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shabbypenguin:
Yea its one of the most annoying things about the cwm/rom manager nonsense. how CWM works is someone ports it, then submits it to be made official, if it passes then koush puts his stamp of approval on it and kicks out a official version and touch version. you can get both for free at the website or use the app to flash them (where the touch one costs money for every device you wish to flash it on). the support from there then is expected from the person who ported the recovery.

People buy rom manager premium expecting things when it is old and the feature it had was you could use it to downlaod roms, which the way he did it required github knowledge and a lot of behind teh scenes work forcing a lot of people to give it up years ago when better things like goo manager came along. so people buy that and think they are getting touch recovery, or that by buying touch recovery any of that money goes to the people who port the recoveries which is not the case, all of it goes to koush and google. i wish there was a bit more upfrontness when it came to buying cwm touch, but koush's source is closed and now there is a lot of other ones that have open source and are used. cwm has swipe now built into it (a betetr version than what was in oudhs). so there is at least that, but im a twrp fan myself :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] calebcabob:
Wow. That explains a lot...you explained a lot. Can't blame him for closing it though. Ha. It was the stepping stone of android recovery. My only issue with TWRP right now is that I'm stuck on 2.6.0.0 - I can't say I've really researched exactly why I can't flash 2.7.0.0 but, I'm sure I'll get to it one day once I can't take the feeling of defeat anymore.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xnickfx:
Hi,

I have this problem with the game The Amazing Spider-Man, it is a legitimate copy purchased from the Play Store. Every time I am on level 25 to 28 while beating up 4 or more of the lizard guys (this is when it seems to use the most CPU/RAM, even though it seems to have plenty to use and the game is running fast and smooth) it just crashes to the home screen. I have tried formatting and many other things but it just keeps happening when I do big things.

I am running JellyBean 4.2.2 which is rooted and using Trickster MOD to turn off MPDecision while using SetCPU from lowest to highest and lowest to lowest when screen off. I am also running Task Manager Killer on auto every 10 minutes to shut down apps that open and stay open after I open another app.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Any answers, advice, or help would be very much appreciated, thank you!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
Sounds like it's a application issue and not the phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xnickfx:
Thanks, I agree. I just read something that I accidentally clicked on in the game and it lead me to their troubleshooting page saying that they knew of this issue and that they are working constantly on getting the issue fixed.

Besides waiting on them, if anyone knows any other way or has an idea to stop this please do let me know, since of course there is so much you can do with the android system. I've had the game for about a month now and really don't feel like waiting any longer since its like the only game I really enjoy in my free time.

If not, can anyone suggest amy other cool games that let you earn upgrades, has an open-world, etc?

Thanks a lot!
[Huawei Ideos X6] BSydz:
Hello everybody. After spending hours trying to figure out what I could delete from the system to make room for Gapps on CM10, I even tried to resize partitions, I came to the conclusion that the Gapps will have to be stored elsewhere. So, I came up with a solution, by installing the apps to /data/Gapps and then symlinking the files to /system. So since there are so many people trying to get Goggle Now on CM9, I figured I would make modified Gapps zips for both CM9 and CM10.

These are complete Gapp packages, they actually free up space on the /system partition, and are completely functional. Most of the files are installed to data/Gapps, this way the devs will not have to worry about trimming the ROMs, except to fit on the partition.

I'm sure this will help a bunch of other devices that have smaller system partitions also.

Note: Facelock requires you to log in to an account, to even show up in lockscreen options.

I don't think Google should have any issues with this as I haven't changed any files that where in the zip just moved them around and modified the updater-script.

Installation for fresh install:

1. Boot to your favorite custom recovery

2. Factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache

3. Flash CM9/CM10

4. Flash these Gapps

5. Reboot

Installation for previous install:

If you are already setup , you will need to wipe the cache and reinstall the ROM to format system to remove any Gapps already installed. As long as you don't wipe data/factory reset you should be right back where you started.

1. Boot to your favorite custom recovery

2. Wipe cache and dalvik cache

3. Flash CM9/CM10

4. Flash these Gapps

[Huawei Ideos X6] reversegear:
thank you very much

this reduces the pain while trimming the rom for matching system partition

in this same way can we get google offline voice..?
[Huawei Ideos X6] BSydz:
GNow offline for ICS still requires about 60mb. So it will depend on the ROM. But, it works with our Triumph ICS ROMs. And they should be almost identical, as far as I've seen. I use GNow offline with my PA ICS ROM, with no issues. I haven't spent much time on any of the X6 ROMs, as we can't use the newer kernel and still use our phone service.

Let me know how it goes.
[Huawei Ideos X6] bandukia:
This is great way of freeing up system partition..! So can our device be repartitioned? And make some internal memory available as internal sdcard?
[Huawei Ideos X6] reversegear:
Already we have a enough internal memory 1gb. What we need is system partition which is 245 mb needs expansion may be additional 100 mb from internal memory. that is where the pain area.
