And testing now.

Edit: Volume down is the only button that works.

Swipe Up and Swipe Down work, Swipe left and Right do not.

Awesome job, man!

I love CWM, and I can confirm it's FULLY working.

Flashing, Mounting, Backup up, Restoring, etc. :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Kwongger:
Alright if this is included in my toolkit ?

Great work btw! :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
yes and thanks for asking me. ;)

ricky has asked and been given the ok too.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] theesotericone:
Interesting. Since you've built for LG's before do they mostly use the same file structure as the N5? The reason I'm asking is factory resetting seems to wipe some things like photos and music. To my understanding it doesn't wipe CWM backups. I'd hate to loose my music and was thinking of putting it in mnt/shell/emulated. Then seeing if I can get my music player to find it. I won't have to time to play with the idea until after the holidays but I figured you might know if I'm wasting my time. I've been a Samsung guy for years and their structure is much different. So I'm trying to learn this device.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
well usually LG's have a real sdcard and I've not worked on the N4 at all. On my GNexus when I do a factory reset it doesnt touch what I have on my 'sdcard' which is emulated like the n4/5. SO prolly safe to say the N5 might be a lil diff from the norm that I am use too with LG's. Once I get one, I will know more about it. ;)

But a factory reset shouldnt be wiping whats slated as the sdcard. Tho, you might need to check with a root explorer to see if music, picture and the likes are actually being save to the emulated sdcard and not just in data. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] yldlj:
Is it ok to rename the backup? Will cwmr still read it?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
is with rom manager.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mpgrimm2:
I like others have had a hard time getting a good download from the Goo.im & unleashedprepaid links.
[MENTION=2999829]PlayfulGod[/MENTION], I hope you don't mind, but I thought I would share my backups of some of your files to help those struggling to get them. If you do, let me know and I will hide/disable the links. Thanks for all your hard work

My Backups of Nexus 5 files at DevHost (just a few).

ps: do you have a dev-host account?

[Nexus 5 Android Development] theesotericone:
I have never even had ROM mangler on any of my devices. I've been renaming them for years using a file explorer. Just don't put any spaces in the name or it will not work. So instead of "asylum faux2" use "asylum_faux2". That was the only issue I've come across in renaming them and I haven't tried putting spaces in in a long time so it might be fixed. I doubt it though.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jeffreii:
I had the backup/1970 date bug on both my Samsung Galaxy S3 and S4 with CWM...so it's not just LG.

I've always just ignored it...at least you can still tell which is the newest.

Im on the very first unofficial build by playful God. Did not upgrade at all as I read about further issues, am living with the long wait for cache wipe :p read someone said u fixed it ? If true which version ? Or can I get a fast link in case achieved ? Thanks mate !
[Nexus 5 Android Development] yldlj:
Latest unofficial works perfectly no bugs at all for me. Slow cache wipes got resolved a few versions ago.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] peachpuff:
Is it possible to change the backup location to say /sdcard/cwm or something?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] 75markus:
not until you compile it yourself with the needed changes :p

the backups are stored there for safety reasons, as we discussed before ...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] odysseus84:
First: Sorry for not reading the thread. It's possible that is already answered once.

My recovery fkash animation looks a littke strange. The pic of andy with the rotating "core" on his chest looks fals arranged. Is this just in my case or general?

And a second question:

The backup script for backing up the gapps doesn't work for me. For you guys too?

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
its a known bug and been reported to koush and crew.

my gapps get backed up fine. Only gapps you flashed get backed up, not any google apps you installed from the Store. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] FCDHBubbles:
Any indication when this will be fixed? Also when I make a back up the date doesnt match the actual date...is this also known bug?? Thanks for youre help playfulgod.!!! Didnt know you have to pay for touch CWM is that new?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
You can download the cwm touch img and install it w/o having to pay. Only have to pay to install via ROM Manager, and its always been like that.

The image glitch will get fixed soon as koush takes time to rebuild the img's, or builder gets bumped to cm-11.0 so I can.

The time bug is a LG thing and nothing can be done about it. You can rename your backups with ROM Manager w/o causing a md5 error. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] maddoggin:
Has the broken Andy image been fixed officially? Is koush not updating his recovery any more? Just asking!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] FCDHBubbles:
I Think Playfulgod just answered these questions ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] freestyle_gus:
I can't mount my USB storage in CWM.

Any thoughts?

All other functions seem to be fine. Including touch.

Little Help

Hello All,

I read through a good bit of the thread last night so hopefully i didn't miss what i'm about to ask so here goes.

1.) On my N5 iv'e already performed the CF-Auto-Root and that all went pretty well, heres where I have issues after reading and i like to double check so.

2.) I asked a Question in the How to Unlock the Bootloader, Install Custom Recovery and Root Thread about where i should start back up after doing the CF-AR and the reply was yes go ahead and pickup on step 2. and just comtinue on , thats when I had a issue the commands to start are to get to the fastboot menu and do some adb commands with phone in fastboot connected to computer.

1. Code: cd Desktop/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools

2. Code: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

This seems different than the thread on Clockworkmod Recovery for the Nexus 5 which says to:

To Install

1.Code: adb reboot bootloader

2.Code: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

My Question they Both have step 2 but step 1's are different so should i be doing the following or one or other of above or what is it.?

1. Code: cd Desktop\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

2. Code: adb reboot bootloader

3. Code: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

3.) Would it be any easier or safer to just do through the Rom Manager App Downloaded through the Play Store beings i'm already unlocked and rooted. ??

Again do Apoligize if this is a lot but Iv'e read through a bit of pages and just could be cross eyed if these answers are there but i'd rather be safe than sorry and maybe help someone else out in the same just know a lot of you guys are well beyond me. Thanks ahead as as always and hope i just got it all right. Whew
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
First set of instructions are assuming you're a typical Windows user and not set the PATH or Environment Variables to be able to just type adb from any directory. Second set of instructions assume you have set those up.

And you can install CWM via ROM Manager, but I think Andy is still jacked up. It works fine, just looks bad during the animation.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] rldstover48:
Many Thanks PlayfulGod,

Your right i'm not messing with paths or Enviroments I keep it locked down so I can contain the mess, back when i started playing with electronics your XT's AT's First Windows 3,3.1 everything was done the long way I was ok but after that windows opened up a whole can of worms if your not in these things on a dailey basis well takes longer to lookup how to set them up than to do the job i'm setting up for,lol.

And Apoligize once again but do I need to execute the command " adb reboot bootloader " if I'm doing from within the platform-tools dir or do i just skip that step and i'd rather do thru windows than the app i feel i have a bit more control just wanted to know in case i get iffy. Iv'e put phone into fastboot and hoohed to computer running the command fastboot devices ensuring its reading correct phone w/serial number a couple of times just to check things are staying the same to ensure i got it to that point.

Also is it just a good proceedure to disable virus protection when working with adb and the android sdk.

Again many thanks be well
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
I've never had to disable av on windows to use adb. I quick fix to ease navigating or setting the enviro variable is to either 1)copy adb.exe & fastboot.exe to C:\ADB etc. Or 2) install open cmd in any directory, which adds it to your context menu. think its default in win8 now with a shift+key combo. I dont do much from windows anymore, so I am fairly rusty on it. lol
[Nexus 5 Android Development] szucsgf:
You can do this:

1. Code: adb reboot bootloader

2. Code: cd Desktop\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

3. Code: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

The first command is rebooting you into fastboot mode, which is the mode your phone needs to be in to flash a recovery image.

The second puts your computer in the correct directory to execute fastboot commands. Make sure that the file path matches where you've saved the platform tools. Alternatively, you can open your platform tools folder, shift+right click in the folder, and select "Open cmd prompt here".

The third command flashes the recovery image. Make sure the name in the command matches the name of the file you're flashing.

In other words, the instructions from the xda thread assume you are already in fastboot mode and the instructions from cwm assume your already in the correct directory.

Hi,

Is there any chance you get involved in Philz Recovery?

At last to provide what needed by Philz to build his touch version for our device. He basically needs a source tree able to compile the non touch version of his recovery.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_lge_hammerhead

he didnt look to hard ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Striatum_bdr:
That's not the point, he's maintaining 61 devices trees so he does want some help in providing a first compile of his recovery (non touch version) with His non touch recovery sources, and if you can provide a working recovery, he'll then use this new tree to build the touch version.

No matter. Thank you anyway.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
ah gotcha. Will see what I can to later on today then. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ensifolk:
Im on the latest Playful build. Wipe speed and everything is awesome now ! Only thing I face is that SOME TIMES when flashing a new rom, the recovery hangs out, and have to reboot into it to flash it and get done... :p
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Grouper:
Okay, so I did 'fastboot oem unlock' and it worked fine, then i did 'fastboot flash recovery filename.img' which seemed to work fine, then I 'fastboot boot filename.img' and it booted to CWMR touch 6.0.4.5, which I downloaded from here: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager

I tried to do a backup but it didn't work, couldn't mount the backup partition, so then I tried to format /data,/cache and that didn't work either, another mounting error. After that I rebooted the recovery and still had the same problem.

Now the phone won't boot and just sits on the animated boot screen...

Update: Held the power button down for 10 seconds and the phone shut off... now it won't turn back on. No lights, no sounds.

EDIT: Just turned on?. Huh? Recovery still doesn't work right. Can't mount or format anything, phone won't boot and tried flashing 6.0.4.4, same exact problem.

EDIT 2: Fixed. https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#hammerhead

I did a nandroid, now i wanna save it on my pc also, but don't know the path where cwm stores it, can you help me guys?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Deegan87:
Just use adb pull and type the path that's is provided under the names of the backups in ROM manager.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] G8D:
I know this is supposedly answered in the OP but I still cannot find it. Where are the backups stored?

I'm using ES (in root mode) but cannot find them anywhere. They definitely exist as CWM can see them (even though the year seems to be set to 1970). CWM says /sdcard/clockworkmod/backups but no such folder exists.

Any help? Is there anyway to see them via Android File Transfer?

Just to inform you guys. I just flashed the new OTA.zip for android 4.4.1 with the latest unofficial CWM without any issue. I'm on stock rom and stock kernel I have to say.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] rldstover48:
Forgot

just delete didn't look hard enough after post found answer
[Nexus 5 Android Development] _MetalHead_:
edit: wrong thread. Mea culpa.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] RusherDude:
After flashing the 4.4.1 OTA via CWM 6.0.4.5 Swipe Unofficial, my recovery got patched to stock :S

I had to re-flash it via fastboot. if I had flashed it after the OTA on CWM using the flashable zip for the 6.0.4.5swipe, would it have fixed the issue inmediatelly?

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
With OTA's it will flash stock everything back. You can either mod the zip by removing the recovery.img and any lines for it in the updater-script, wait on someone else to do all the previous mentioned mods, or reflash cwm after flashing the the OTA zip b4 rebooting. All this only works when sideloading the update, if done thru the updater in settings will have to reflash recovery via fastboot. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] RusherDude:
With 'sideloading the update' you include both sideloading the ota via fasboot and flashing it via CWM, right?

Thanks a lot for the great fast answer! :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
well I think of sideloading being done with recovery, but it can be considered sideload flashing from fastboot too. lol
[Nexus 5 Android Development] RusherDude:
Haha okay, I always read stuff matching sideloading with fastboot, and matching all the cwm stuff with flashing :p.

Thanks a lot! :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
well recovery has a sideload option now (has for awhile actually), but I guess the term could have originated from doing the flash-all of the google images instead of waiting for the OTA. lol

I typically state which I am referring to tho, so its all good. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] RusherDude:
Yeah hehe, CWM has a sideload option but imho it makes no sense (why do you want to be wired instead of being able to flash anywhere?).
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
Oh trust me it comes in very handy, esp for a dev. lol
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AkumaZeto:
Sweet! I like TWRP but CWM has always been my favorite!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] coldfusionb:
Is there a way to get OTG to work with recovery?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
yea plug it in ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] coldfusionb:
When I plug it in I am unable to see it from recovery so I cannot flash anything directly from my USB card. It works fine outside of the recovery.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
ah derp, got my threads confused. lol

let me look at the fstab and see what we can do. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] coldfusionb:
No problem? and that would be great.

give this a test for me

you need a logcat or kmesg or somthing like that?

@PlayfulGod do you know if the backup date will be fixed anytime soon? My backups are still showing 1970.. as the year.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
not unless it can be applied from the device tree. Its a LG issue and how they decided date wasnt important at that level. ;)

You can manage & rename your backups with rom manager tho. ;)

Blackscreen on 2nd boot

Hey, I flashed the official touch version. Works fine on the first start, but on 2nd start it's back to the stock recovery.

It sticks as long as I don't boot into the ROM.

Also, I can't get it to mount my /sdcard via mount USB storage.

I'm not very experienced and my installation is messy - Got the stock Rom, had it rooted via CF's fastroot, but the update must've messed with the root.

CWM offers me to fix it on restart, but it doesnt work. Nor does it show the SU.zip i pushed to /sdcard/.

Could you help me out? I already read the last couple of pages & used the search.

Edit: Found out USB 3 can mess up the cwm installation,and i only got those. Any workaround?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
offical imgs not been updated with OTG afaik

I dont think USB 3 would affect it, think thats all my box has.

if you are pushing the su.zip to /sdcard while in cwm, you need to make sure its mounted first

adb shell mount system

or from mounts & storage.

UMS prolly wont work on official imgs either until they are updated.

A lot of commits over the last day, are any of these worth making a new build for? Not really asking for a new build from PlayfulGod now that the recovery builder is back on line I'm just curious.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] BrandoHD:
I have a question about root

This recovery always asks me to restore root every time I boot into it.

At first it happened when I flashed kernels, and I assumed that something probably happened there that made me lose root, now it happens after I make backups, I did nothing else, I just went to recovery to make a backup, then to reboot into Android and it would ask me to root the device

I have started to flash SuperSU every time I enter recovery to avoid this so I'm not really sure if I really lose root or not

Is anyone else experiencing anything similar?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] yldlj:
Always happens to me. if you choose no you dont lose root. I always choose yes tho, never hurts
