say yes and it will be happy probably

Or see if you updated your ROM SU version
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] joeyddr:
I reflashed the supersu 1.65 and it went away thanks.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Gorgtech:
Only 12 people thanked for such a nice recovery? :confused:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Barthlon:
Maybe because there is no (install)information whatsoever?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Should install info be in a dev thread?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ThaiDai:
Quoting your own posts there

So the answer must be "yes".
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
No

I meant forums, not thread. Will edit it.

People should look, into their device forum, FAQ and General. Dev threads are not meant to be a how to flash tut

If someone doesn't know how to flash a recovery, he has no reason to lurk here. He should start in other general/faq forums
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Barthlon:
Hi Phil,

No harsh feelings whatsoever; I have been using your great recovery since the first release on GS2 and I have no complaints at all :)

I just think the reason why this specific thread seems to be less popular than previous ones is that there are no clear instructions. In fact, there is a 'loop': this thread sends us to the general thread for 'installation instructions', but when we look there we are send back here because installation instructions should be found in the 'device specific thread' :p
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
All my threads are that way. I cannot spend all my time writing noob how to flash guides for each of above 60 devices I support.

Some devices are just less popular than others. You have a small community, I see no issues with it. As long as there is one reliable tester giving meaningful debugging info, it is enough for me to support devices I do not own
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] guidogsbn:
lovely

At least a lovely recovery that brings features we had in the good old days of 4ext recovery also with layout options. I tested a data backup and the one for recovery settings: everything with no problems!

Thank you very much, I hope there will come more followers to this lovely project- It's worth testing it!:cool:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] joeyddr:
i use this on both my s3 and n7 its great.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] borxnx:
Would you consider adding USB mouse functionality? I would donate for that. My digitizer's blown, and I doubt TWRP will integrate this feature.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] tashik19:
Thanks

I am using it. :cowboy:

6.01.9

fix non centered background issue and boot/recovery size check on backup
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Jleeblanch:
Thanks for the hard work on this recovery! I had previously breezed over the features and assumed this was just "another CWM based recovery" with a few extra features. Wow, was I wrong!

I'm extremely impressed with the amount of work and features that's crammed into this recovery! I think this just became my new favorite recovery ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Bobbi lim:
Is this recovery compatible with [HTMLhttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2381544][/HTML] CWM backup and is it able to mount USB storage when in recovery?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Jleeblanch:
Based on the link you posted, are you asking if this recovery is compatible with CWM backups? If so, yes, absolutely! As far as USB Storage, this recovery is also able to backup to external storage as well
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Bobbi lim:
Thanks for your reply. But I would like to clarify another issue. Is the recovery about to mount USB storage like in CWM or TWRP which allow us to transfer files from the computer to the tablet using the recovery and vice versa. I would like to give it a try since there's a lot of praises for philz's recovery in the One X forum and I couldn't find it for flo. So if it works than I'll really want to see how well it goes :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Jleeblanch:
I personally don't have any experience in using Philz's Recovery in that manner, I use it to mount an external thumb drive via USB OTG. From what I understand tho, and what I've seen, Philz's Recovery has all the features official CWM has plus many, many, MANY MORE!! So I would think that if you can do it with the official CWM recovery, than you can do it with Philz's Touch better ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
If you find a single recovery allowing this on flo, you're the man of the year ;)

adb is your only friend here
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] tr72:
Hi PhilZ

I arrived here too. I'm a very lucky guy, my girlfriend offered me the nexus.

Installed your recovery and work like a charm, backup on usb otg like there's no extsdcard and it was great and fast.

thanks a lot.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] bsw11:
OK, for some reason this seems to be a point of contention, but I would like to try this on my Nexus 7 2013.

I just need a link or a simple clarification.. I am currently using TWRP.

I take it you can't just flash it inside of TWRP - right?

So I just don't have the ADB step by step handy - can someone post a link to those steps?

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] tr72:
if you want to install it with adb :

1 : extract the recovery.img from the zip you downloaded

2 : reboot your nexus in bootloader

3 : in terminal enter : fastboot flash recovery path to the recovery img (or you can swype the file in the terminal)

That's what I did but I you can flash the zip in twrp.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Many many thanks for your generosity :angel:

And congrats for your new Christmas gift
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Bobbi lim:
I always have the habit of mounting my device in recovery and transfer the needed rom files over and than flash it in recovery since its faster for me that way but the current recovery I have doesn't allow me to do so. therefore, if yours have the ability to do so, I'll glad do the switch :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] gunnermike:
I tried TWRP (on S4) and liked it very much but did not find it as reliable as CWM. I missed the install multiple zip feature though. Today is the first time I have tried your recovery though and find I like it very much. I feel silly for months and months of plain old CWM use. Thanks for this, ill be adding it to me S4 as well.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ameinild:
I recently tried this recovery, and I like it very much - always was more a fan of the CWM style interface, but missed some functionality from TWRP, which I now have.

However, it seems that on Flo, the scrolling is much less smooth than on Mako - is this normal? I honestly don't remember if it was the same with CWM. Can this be kernel related?

Thanks, and keep up the good work! :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Maybe provide a video?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ben83s:
Loving it. No issues here. Giving it a good work though and so far so good :)

Thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ameinild:
So here is my commented video of the recovery on both N4 and N7. Scrolling and general touch sensitivity is simply smoother on the N4. It's not a very big deal, but I think the touch sensitivity is on the low side on the N7... It would definitely be a "nice touch" if it could be improved a bit ;)

N4:

N7:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/29137942/Camera/Nexus_7_PhilZ_touch_demo.mp4

BTW: If you want me to do a test for this device (N7), I'm definitely up for it... :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
In fact, it seems very slow to refresh screen

Could be it needs a custom graphics.c

However, without the device to test, I rely on device developers to fix it

Probably even in non touch versions it would lag the same. So, not a big issue to fix for a motivated dev owning the device

I can help providing needed graphics.c to debug/test. But you need to compile the recovery from sources
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ameinild:
Thanks a lot for the reply. :)

I don't have a setup to build and compile, so right now I could hope that somebody else would chime in and make a build that I would be very willing to test... Else I've have to wait and maybe try to setup the ability to build myself, but I'm not at all familiar with it, so it may not be for a while.

Thanks for the heads up though... :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
I am trying to compile with less color depth graphics

I will upload a test version in a few minutes
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
6.09.6 (15.01.2014)

This version should be able to flash older update zip packages

No more need to manually swap update-binary. It will do it for you

I also reverted to a lower RGB256 color support

The stock background could look ugly, just change theme

Please let me know if this version scrolls smoother? If not, I will revert to full color graphics
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ameinild:
Thanks for the try. However, that doesn't seem to be it, scrolling is about the same... But nice with an updated version nonetheless. :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Probably buffering at graphics level than

I can try a few things but would probably end in some black screen and the like until we debug it
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ameinild:
Yeah sure - no prob as I can always flash a working recovery from fastboot. If you have the time to do a test build, I'll be happy to test it, just let me know :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Ok,

compiling a new version without double buffering on Graphics

Will update in a few minutes

Keep older version as I removed it from goo.im

Once we debug it, I upload a final
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Can you test this version:

http://d-h.st/5cT
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] mahalocat:
I can test...if flashable now.

IF I need fastboot...won't be until this evening.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
It is a zip flashable
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ameinild:
It works, but scrolling is unfortunately not improved...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
I have no clue then. Could be the kernel...

Previous versions were all the same?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ameinild:
Pretty much yeah... I'll probably switch to KK 4.4 at some point in the near future, will let you know about any improvements if I see them - but again thanks for trying. :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] mahalocat:
Im on KK Purity ROM -

Same issue - Laggy scrolling and lag between Screens.

Not unusable by any means - But not as smooth as it runs on my HTC one.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ameinild:
Yeah, it's one hell of a recovery, astonishing work - smoother scroll would be the finishing touch to this.. ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
I re-uploaded 6.09.6 to goo.im

No fix for smoother screen drawing sadly

Is there a device maintainer for N7, who can make new builds if Phil doesn't have the time???
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] charesa39:
Just out of curiosity, how long is it taking folks in here to make a nandroid backup using Philz recovery on their N7 2013? It usually takes about 40 minutes from start to finish for me, while on my Nexus 5 (running same version #), it only takes about 4 minutes. I am pretty much using all default settings (only thing I changed was the backup path to save the nandroids to sdcard/0), and compression is set to zero. Granted I'm on v6.12.8, so I'm going to check out the latest update to see if it's faster.

This is not meant to come off as complaining, or unappreciative, since I do appreciate the fact that it even exists for our device. I just want to make sure I'm not missing anything.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Latest version improved this step a lot

Try to use low or fast compression

Internal storage is much faster than external
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] charesa39:
AWESOME! I'll give it a go. THANKS, Phil3759! :laugh: I really do appreciate all the time you put into this recovery that covers so many devices.:good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] oldsoldier2003:
That is an understatement :) My recovery time for a full restore went from over 40 minutes down to under two by upgrading from 6.07. (Yes, I was a little behind ... 6.07 worked fine and its not like I intentionally spend a lot of time in recovery!)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] charesa39:
Holy smokes! You weren't kidding. My backup time went from 40min to 3min! Awesome work, sir! :good::highfive:

[MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION]

Thanks for the recovery it's a massive improvement over stock CWM.

I have noticed one problem in mounts and storage menu it lists all the partition's for formatting see pic.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] maidangisme:
Can we format these: sbl1/sbl2/sbl3>>>>Abootb? These look like bootloader or something, Can someone experienced explain.

Thanks All.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] key1650:
Yes you can format the partitions. I don't know what they are. We are not supposed to see them.

When [MENTION=4666971]Phil3759[/MENTION] builds the recovery he has an option on which partitions we can see.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Bone_Enterprise:
I assume philz_touch_6.41.6-flo.zip is the proper recovery that needs to be flashed for the Nexus 7 (flo) devices?

Been out of the Nexus game a while, want to be sure I am getting the right one.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] quickdraw86:
Correct. TWRP is always an option too, both work well.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Bone_Enterprise:
Yeah but I have became fond of using PhilZ Touch, thanks. =)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Fauert:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] lmulli:
New version of Goo now showing with the latest files.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
because you need to format a partition to change file system !!

that is you wipe your sdcard
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] joeyddr:
this is when i went to format that partition....
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
/data AND /data/media

not /data only
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] joeyddr:
still don't have the f2fs option for that.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
You must answer yes to first warning that it will wipe your media
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] joeyddr:
ok, but i just realized mount usb storage does not work...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
Let me know when you find a recovery that allows it on Nexus 7!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] joeyddr:
figured that out... lol

now after i formatted it and did the adb pull push method, i cannot write to /sdcard anymore in my rom.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phil3759:
I just answered you in main thread

You should use the backup /data/media option and do it to an USB disk, else you break your /data/media permissions

Hi there,

a friend of mine got a new s4. We booted it and added google information. Everything syncs under settings/accounts/google account, including app data, chrome, gmail, google photos etc

The problem is that there is no Sync Contacts so the google contaacts do not sync with the device.

any ideas?

thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
re: contact google sync

Go into settings>accounts and click on google after that click on your gmail account email address.

After that you will see many sync options including "sync contacts" check mark it and it will sync.

Good luck!

yesi did that already, no sync contacts options.

anyway i believe this phone is a clone, i already verified that. i will send it back.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] JGress:
Has anyone here used Zoom FX as a replacement for the awesome stock Sense camera? I really want to install PAC-Man Rom because of all the cool features but I LOVE the stock HTC camera app. I take a lot of pictures and one of the features I love about the stock camera is that you can extract still images from video. Plus it seems like the stock app would be best able to take advantage of the One's ultrapixel camera. I'm really torn between staying stock and keeping the camera and installing a custom rom and having the advantages that come with that.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] chip.hughes:
I have this app. It is feature rich. I don't know if you can extract a still with it, I looked within the app and googled it, can't find anything.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Pepsistopheles:
I've been using CameraZoomFX since day 1 and it's a perfect fit for the One's camera. I set volume up as the shutter, made sure it's taking pictures as Wide 4.1MP (native), and use Stable Shot. Sometimes the "auto" white-balance isn't the best, but that (and tons of other options) are easily adjustable :)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] JGress:
Ok... Thanks guys! I think I'm going to go for it and install PAC & buy ZoomFX. I guess I can always restore to my current configuration if I hate it and waste $3 at the very worst.

Guys, I have a MHL HDMI adapter connected to my AV receiver (Denon AVR 2312) but the screen on the TV just flicks and no phone display appears. If connect the MHL HDMI adapter directly to the TV - it works. Anybody has tried to connect sgs4 to AV receiver via MHL HDMI adapter? I have 9505 with android 4.3 test version
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoothunit:
I have the same Receiver (AU version with slightly better Audyssey) and can confirm it does work. I Have MHL cable plugged into SAT/CBL input. Have a look through your amps settings, specifically the input it's connected to.

What kind of cable is it- Official Samsung or Ebay Yum Cha?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myname70:
Thanks. I use theoriginal Samsung MHL-HDMI adapgter... (but not original HDMI cabel). I tried all HDMI inputs, including the front AUX one... the phone shows me - Connect the HDMI directly to TV... very strange. I tried to make the HDMI settings in AVR not to upscale, not to convert etc.. But the same result.. Today I asked Denon support - they simply did not know what is this MHL :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Delid:
I have this same issue. Believe it or not, the input has to be an input specified for MHL/HDMI. Yes, it works if you plug directly into the TV, but if you try to pass it through a receiver input it won't go unless the input says so. Some receivers and some blu ray players have designated HDMI inputs that also handles MHL. If you look at the label of these inputs it won't just say HDMI, it will be labeled as MHL/HDMI.

thanks

But ater I hard reset, there is no choice for the basic install, I have to install the O2 software.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jah:
@mobilewolf,

From Programs you should see a number of O2 apps. Do you see one called (I think) just "O2"? If you do run this and you will see a screen that has three options including: Basic and Corporate. You should see this screen when you re-start after a hard reset (which you can do by running the app called "Clear Storage"). I personally recommend the Corporate option and when it asks for a code input 0506 using the on-screen number pad
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mobilewolf:
Got it, Thanks a lot.

Could you tell what is the advantage for the Corporate option, I am the new person with the XDA Exec.

Thanks
