AROMA Recovery Installer ????:confused: :confused:

Hi guys. I'm new on this forum and I would like to learn from your experience.

I have a GT-I9505 Samsung Galaxy S4

I read the article and I want to know what uses Recovery AROMA Installer.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
You want to know who uses this mod... or how works this mod? I don't understand your question!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Vcolumn:
In my opinion you should drop the jflte recovery totally. I have been using jfltexxx recoveries (yours), on my jflteatt. The jflte recovery was something that was going to be needed then dropped (thats why there is no official). Cyanogen was going to alter their update script to only flash to jflte, but then decided not to and to still getprop for all the jflte versions (jflteatt, jfltevzr,etc.....) in their update script.

I cant test now, i only flash on the weekends and your 2.8.1.0 jfltexx dark recovery flashed from the zip i posted above has been working great for me.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] milly62:
I want to know about both. It can?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] carloss2013:
i cant seem to find link to v 3.6

found lol
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
So, if I understood, you would like that I integrate the possibility to install the jfltexx recoveries for all jflte variants!

---------- Post added at 12:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 AM ----------

What?

It's good, you've found! Sorry, the OP isn't really updated.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
Who use this mod

: All jflte users and users of its variants, for jflte mod. All jfltexx users for jfltexx mod.

How use this mod

: Via a custom recovery, you'll ask me:"But, so why use this mod if we already have a custom recovery?" I'll answer you:"For an update, to add/ remove/ change a theme at this recovery, to add/ remove Aroma file manager, all that more easily, no need to search where and how, the zip makes all for you.".

That's all, I hope to have answered at your questions like you want.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
Through this message, you tell me that you are using the jfltexx TWRP for your jflteatt S4, if I understood?! You have installed it with this zip:"TWRP_2.8.1.0_Material_dark_GT-I9505(jfltexx)wLOKI.zip" and it works fine for you?! You would like that I integrates the loki method in jfltexx mod ?! I understood your wish, or not?

Please, can you tell me if what you want! Thanks by advance! ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Vcolumn:
yes i have been using the jfltexx versions of twrp on my jflteatt. Can all of the jf models use the jfltexx recovery?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
OK, I'll make the jfltexx version with the also possibility for the variants jflte.

Updated to latest TWRP recovery 2.8.1.0 (Material dark Play theme)

Changing a bit the splashscreens of Material themes

- AROMA RECOVERY INSTALLER v3.7-[jfltexx-jflte]

As agreed with Vcolumn, this mod now installs Recoveries on all variants of jflte, it uses the same method as for the recovery of PhilZ, so must work. However, having no model other than jfltexx, I have only tested this mod for jfltexx, but not for others, as Vcolumn if you think it works for you, you are entirely responsible for this that could happen, I neither assumes any case a brick, or other problems that may occur on your device.

Thanks for your comprehension!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Vcolumn:
sry i have been away, have not been feeling well. will try this out later. Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
If you say you tested without any problem jfltexx TWRP on your S4 which is a jflteatt, this mod should meet your requirements! ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Vcolumn:
did some testing,

Using the aroma mod i can flash between any of the TWRP recovieries no problem. I can change the theme for the TWRP recoveries no problem.

Using the recovery mod, i can flash TO any of the cwm variants, and they boot fine, but i cannot use the aroma mod after that to move to any other recovery ( both cwm and TWRP variants). I get installer status 7

the cwm variants in sys info Name the device cm_jflte, which seems to not pass the installer script becasue cm_jflte is not listed as compatible.

I use my zip from above "TWRP_2.8.1.0_Material_dark_GT-I9505(jfltexx)wLOKI.zip" and flash from within any of the CWM variants and it successfully flashes.

I can then use the aroma mod again.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
If I understood, there is an issue with CWM recoveries. Not for PhilZ, only for CWM Touch and No-touch? Or also this of Jeboo?

To arrange this problem, I can to add cm_jflte to the list.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
[MENTION=1371726]Vcolumn[/MENTION]

Can you test this (below)? Just put it in the zip to the location: /META-INF /com /google /android (you should extract it ;)), you replace the other updater-script (already inside) by updater-script file in the zip below.

I prefer to make a test before an eventual update. Don't make an update for nothing. :p
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
About this error, this is weird, I removed my model to the list to corroborate your talks, only I've not got this issue "installer status 7", Aroma has only listed the compatible devices, normal because it's the goal of this script (below).

i replaced the script and the results were the same. Once I install any of the CWM recoveries (CWM, philz, jeboo) i cannot install any other recovery from the aroma mod, CWM or TWRP.

I installed philz and let boot to OS to see if that would help, checked build.prop and was jflte. results were the same after re trying aroma mod install. In the aroma log attached indicates the phone is not being recognized as jflte after CWM recovery install.

these were the same results i had before the updated script.

i have not tried the default samsung recovery at all.

the lokifying is working though, because if i install a jfltexx TWRP without loki, i get the custom boot screen and have to odin back to stock to remove it. Flashing all the recoveries provided in the mod to my jflteatt, the custom boot screen was never tripped.

Currently on TWRP dark material with material play theme, flashed with the aroma MOD.

The stock recovery doesn't use the loki tool, like that's the stock recovery for jfltexx model (Extracted from an jfltexx official firmware).
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Vcolumn:
i can switch between all the recoveries now with the latest. No problem goin from TWRP to philz,jeboo,cwm then back to TWRP.

Now the themes are acting up for TWRP. The only one that asks to install a theme after install is the F2FS version, but it doesnt install.

With the other versions of TWRP i do not get asked to install a theme. After install I go back to main menu and choose "personaize" option, "theme for TWRP" and get the respone "Bad choice". Then aroma hangs and have to reboot with power button.

After reboot i can install a TWRP theme fine with no hang.

I noticed the only way to get the TWRP theme manager app to install is to enable "check to personalize" option when first booting aroma. Then the option is available to install the manager after any TWRP install. I installed it and was able to download a theme and it was applied no problem after a reboot.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
Already a good thing. Thanks for yours tests! ;)

Normal, it's the only which hasn't personalized splashscreen, so it's for this reason there is a ask for the themes choice. The others have a personalized splashscreen which are consistent with the themes.

I think to know the problem, I'll take a look in order to fix this error. I've no error, the themes are installed with F2FS recovery. Are you sure to have chosen a theme? Because by default, it's on "No theme", if you don't choose a theme, there will not theme!

Normal, the themes are only installed with TWRP 2.8.1.0, at this moment of installation, your recovery isn't still in TWRP 2.8.1.0, but the one that you've at the moment of installation. If you've a TWRP 2.8.1.0 before installation, it shouldn't have issue. However, Aroma shouldn't hang, I made that this does not happen. I'll look why... Same, I've no issue with that, I don't know why you had got one.

I explained the reason for this in a previous post, this mod is primarily a mod to install a recovery, TWRP theme manager is applying to facilitate after, that's why I put it in hidden mode for those who want to go beyond.

With TWRP theme manager, all themes are available on the SD card, you can find them in the "Local" menu of the application.

Anatares ones f2fs twrp 2.8.3.0
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
It's the cause, you have to take the old version of this mod, this with the TWRP 2.8.3.0, you can't put a theme for 2.8.4.0 on a 2.8.3.0 TWRP, it can work but not properly. I put a condition to avoid to put a bad theme on a bad recovery.

Otherwise, you can update your recovery with this mod, it works fine. I've another which enables to add the tool to change your splashscreen. I haven't still put at provision.

Very good aroma recovery. Thanks for the hard work. It is really appreciated.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] Kannibalism:
Unable to update my recovery using this mod F2FS OrbitronX from x.x.30 to x.x.4.0 bad choice is all i get (without themes)

I'll take a look!
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] franzyroy:
[MENTION=4258316]Kannibalism[/MENTION]

Well, i think to know the cause to the bug, but it's not really a bug, however, I think to can fix that.

The cause:

When you want to update your recovery, it works but if you want to put the recovery and theme, Aroma looks if you've the good recovery version (like for only the theme).

To fix this issue, I have to differentiate the installation of theme and the installation of the recovery with the theme, in order it doesn't check the recovery version when all is updated.

That's all!;)

Thanks for the report!:good:

I believe the AROMA Recovery Installer is most useful for clear installation on stock ROM recovery. It is obvious!

But i CAN NOT install it on my stock Samsung Android 5.0.1 ROM. I've got an error message "Signature verification failed" (see attachments).

My question is what of use in the Installer then if it works only on custom recovery?

thnx

Because with stock recovery its created to only allow certain zip files which are ota file and there's nothing anyone can do about that that why there is such thing as custom recoveries
