Good effort, but unfortunately select option not workin therefore CWM unusable..

Thank you and keep up the good work..
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Exel:
Question, does TWRP have an option to select using the buttons or is it all touch?

Maybe you can see on there, don't really know.. never used TWRP.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Froz3nsolid:
Look on the TWRP OP is its on the same page that you found this

This is for.CWM
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
yes I realize that and thanks, still working on it. ;)

Troy_Dees just added what he needed for TWRP and doesnt appear to have touch much of the stock code itself. Will have a closer look tho. And afaik TWRP is touch only.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Exel:
Thanks, was actually wondering about the enter button not working, not really about TWRP. :p

Hm, then would an alternative be trying to build ClockworkMod Recovery Touch until the button issues are solved?

Just throwing ideas out. :p
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hutzdani:
As mentioned before the select key does not work, also the resolution is huge and this makes the writing in recovery super small, the few lines available are like 3mm in height and almost impossible to read
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
I cant build touch until its forked into CM repos. I dont have access to koush's touch src. ;)

K that can be addressed. ;)

Also new img uploaded, same link. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Striatum_bdr:
I confirm the test file is 6.0.4.4 without touch features.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Echse27:
i can confirm 6.0.4.4, too ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
I figure it out, cm-11.0 branch not been bumped to 6.0.4.5 yet.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] yoyoz808:
I have a problem. I wiped cache partition with the 6.0.4.4 recover and now my phone won't mount the storage. What can i do to fix this?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
I can't seem to figure out where my backups are being stored! In CWM, I can see them under /sdcard/clockworkmod . However, when I use any file manager app, when I go to /sdcard , I'm pushed straight to my actual "sd card"-folder with all my photos and music etc. Can anybody help me with this?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
from what I have read, you cant access the backups via a app anymore. Apparently been this way for awhile too. But you should be able to use adb to access them.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
Not very happy with that, I always like to give my back-ups names so I know what I made them for. And so there is no way to delete a back-up as well? Because I wasn't able to find a command on the interwebs that makes it possible to delete a file!

Anyway, thanks for the quick responce!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
now that can be done with ROM Manager and 'should' be able to be done even tho cwm isnt official yet.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] 75markus:
use root explorer for example , here they are :
[Nexus 5 Android Development] adrman:
Root explorer and FX explorer work fine. The actual path is /data/media/clockworkmod/. Note, to adb pull them to your PC with that path, you'll need to be booted into recovery. I forget what the adb pull path is when you're booted to Android, but I have it noted at home and will post it later if no one else does before me.

Edit: the adb pull path to use if you're booted into Android rather than recovery is /mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod
[Nexus 5 Android Development] :
Thanks! Now I'm able to organize and let my OCD do its thing!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kimocal:
Does anyone else get a Root possibly lost message when rebooting recovery? SuperSU v1.69 is fine in the Cataclysm ROM and not having any issues installing updates. This is with v6.0.4.4 of CWMR.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gee one:
i think that will happen because supersu does not set the suid bit on the su binary anymore. just say no when prompted because saying yes will break root.

also it might say something about installing recovery, also ignore because that is how supersu installs root.

sent while running with scissors
[Nexus 5 Android Development] adrman:
Exactly. The interesting thing is that since I flashed SuperSU 1.69, I've been in recovery twice and have not received the warning from CWM. I still have root and the SuperSU app is functioning properly. I say "interesting" because I haven't read anything from either CWM or Chainfire that they've addressed this. I still haven't flashed the CWM update that Playfulgod just put up though, because of the version issue.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sonnysekhon:
Does anyone not see the blue progress bar when flashing a big file (like a full ROM)?

I don't see it. But I see it with Gapps and other smaller files that I flash?

Also, flashing a ROM (CM11 in this case) take unusually long. Like 5 nimutes.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gee one:
I think chainfire address it in the supersu thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 It might be around post 3900-4000 or so. I think it has something to do with changes getting pushed to CWM to treat the new root method for SELinux differently.

It might not be set in the rom you are flashing. I have a stock rom that I flashed and didn't set the progress indicator- the little blue bar is tiny. It's like 3 pixels high and you have to look behind the text.

I just wait for it to say done.... maybe I'll cook up a progress bar for you to test.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sonnysekhon:
Thanks. So the unusually long time it takes to flash the ROM is okay?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gee one:
I just flashed a stock rooted rom and it took about 3-4 mins (doesn't include time for sideload). The updater-script I use also formats /system, which took about half the time.

I think some of the scripts might do fancy things like back up gapps, OTA survival for root, wipe cache, make coffee, etc. The script I was using was fairly plain vanilla.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ghling:
Personally, I don't really care for that progress bar, because it isn't totally accurate any way.

Installing a Rom really takes quite some time, I noticed that too. But I guess that's just because everything is brand new and there need to be some tweaks to speed it up. Right now, formating the /system partition and wiping the cache takes a really unusual long time. But as I said, I think (I'm hoping) this will get fixed soon.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] interloper:
THANKS!!! Will this restore my backups from RDFN recovery? Can you port OUDHS recovery please? I'll donate a 1/2 dozen stale donuts and 4 moldy cigarettes!

10char
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
well stock ROM is roughly 390MB, which is fairly large for a ROM esp compared to CM which is usually around 180MB. Still a far cry better than OEM ROMs that I seen be nearly 1GB or better out of the box. lol
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
lol

wtf is RDFN Recovery????????
[Nexus 5 Android Development] interloper:
It's that supre new underground recovery based on sriptrecoverydataminer_incapable buy lV4rGastationMOX. I kaint beleeve u no hear of it b4 noaw!

Thanks for making this bro. Miss you!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Striatum_bdr:
Yes but you have to add gapps, can be 200MB for full ones so you've got same size than stock.

You can't beat Samsung full stock Rom clearly, 1 gig is frequent.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] nitrogen618:
Lol. I came from the s4, some ROM are like 1.3gb and some are almost 2gb. Wtf lol
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
true that, I forgot to take gapps into consideration lol

I dont do OEM fw, I always install CM or get CM working on the device I am using. lol

Official img available from Clockworkmod, link added to OP. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] .A.J.:
Can you please post the SHA-1 checksum for the official image? The SHA-1 posted doesn't match either the official or unofficial that I downloaded. Perhaps I got bad downloads.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
I sure cant, I have it linked directly to koush's server(s).
[Nexus 5 Android Development] theesotericone:
I just DL'd three times and all hashes matched each other so these should be good.

thanks I added those to the OP. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] peachpuff:
No swiping with the official cwm recovery, android logo seems messed up too.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
yea its the official non-touch img. Koush hasnt built the touch img yet and has is disabled from being build unofficially or officially atm. Prolly due to lil things like the logo you mentioned and gweedo mentioned some stuff from cm-10.2 that needed merged into cm-11.0.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Giroyac:
Does the official cwm suffer from the slow cache wipe also??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
most likely. Every recovery thats been built for the N5 seems to be that way.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] spica123:
Installation via Rom manager works like a charm!

Thank you
[Nexus 5 Android Development] sammy789:
Using the new official version of cwr I got bootloops after flasing a new kernel. Flashed back the unofficial touch version and everything works fine again, so I'm going to stay with te unoffical version for now.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Natakranta:
I think I'll stay with unofficial as well. It works good for me. No problems at all. If slow cache format is a general thing in N5 then I'll just learn to live with it. And your swipe up and down and right to confirm is so convenient. I prefere it than actually touching the narrow lines which is easy to make mistake. Thanks PlayfulGod!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] AndroidUzer:
There were settings that could be changed in the other recovery that when changed improved wiping performance.

Has anyone found any default setting in the new official CWM Recovery that should be changed for optimal N5 performance?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Striatum_bdr:
It seems that factory reset didn't work with OFFICIAL cwm.

I installed Asylum, so choose factory reset before, but after flashing the Rom + gapps .... I discovered that all my apps were still there...

Fortunately no bugs till now.

Has anyone tested this feature?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PaY87:
So unofficial from OP is more stable and fully working than official?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] J0ESK0:
I haven't had any problems with the unofficial one.. I've done a bunch of full wipes.. Backups/restores. And have had no issues. Plus, it has touch controls via swipes for up down select. The official one I haven't really tested.. But as soon as I saw it had no touch controls I went right back to unofficial.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PaY87:
Ok I will try unofficial first. Just need wipe and nandroid:)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] peachpuff:
Doh having an issue restoring my backup with the official and unofficial recovery, it fails restoring /system for some reason. It restores some things and then it fails.

Damnit restoring completely wiped my internal memory, never gonna store my backups on it again!@#$
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hanschke:
the droid is damaged with latest recovery from clockworks :( is this right?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
its just extra images. aosp added wiggling ears to Andy when updating. gweedo767 added them to 6.0.4.4 last week. In ASOp they are via recovery/res in the hammerhead device tree and werent removed when merged into cm, so they are loading on top of what was added to CWM, and thus too many images trying to fill the same spaces. ;)

It will be fixed tho. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hanschke:
it is ok if i know that the recovery will work because it is very slow in flashing.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Striatum_bdr:
It's slow because there is a cache wipe in most install scripts. The main issue is there and no solution for now.

Perhaps a specific partition design. The twrp alternative solution to erase file instead of formatting could be a hugly solution, more insecure.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Yellow_Racing:
installed the unofficial recovery through rom manager, could not of been easier cheers
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jayhammy:
Official CWM is now available in ROM Manager
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
yea I said that the other day just hours after koush built and published it. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] WhiteReign:
Stupid question does this really work on the N900V???
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
wtf is N900V?

And this is built for the Google Nexus 5 by LG. I doubt it works on anything else and definitely wouldnt suggest installing it on anything else. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] WhiteReign:
Note 3 by Verizon. lol
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
Most definitely not then lol. There is a cwm for the note3 tho
[Nexus 5 Android Development] WhiteReign:
Nice, Could you be so kind as to point me in the right direction. I was reading and Safe strap was my next option. I love CWMR more..
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
urm, doesnt seem to be a official one. I know a guy who has one with cwmr and cm11 on it. I'm yelling at him to see if he has it uploaded and what, if any, issues it has.

Edit: he has one on tmo. Verzion os prolly different knowing them. lol And I found cwm for every other model but Verizon. lol

[Nexus 5 Android Development] stereoprologic:
So what's the word on the touch recovery? :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
atm the only touch options are TWRP and the Unofficial build I did with the swipe functions. Building hammerhead on builder is disabled at the moment, so I cant even build a unofficial CWM Touch. :(
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gburlingame:
Hi everyone,

So I tried installing a ROM on my Nexus 5 using the official release of CWM recovery 6.0.4.4.

Unfortunately I ran into something I have never seen before and can't seem to find the answer anywhere.

What is the right combination of steps (things to format/wipe) in order to conduct a "clean install" of a custom ROM when using CWM 6.0.4.4 for the Nexus 5?

I have tried doing all three of these:

1) "wipe data/factory rest"

2) "wipe cache partition"

3) "format /system"

But unfortunately these steps do not seem to result in a clean install, i.e., after rebooting Android goes through the process of updating the apps instead of starting from a clean slate.

Under the "Mounts and Storage Menu" there are other partitions listed that can be formatted, so I am wondering if some of the other partitions need to be formatted.

From my past flashing experiences however, I've never had to do anything beyond "wipe data/factory reset".

I am sort of wondering if something is wrong with this build of CWM for the Nexus 5 or something is unusual about my Nexus 5.

Thanks!

Greg

**EDITED 11/21/2013**

In case someone stumbles into my posting, I thought it would be helpful to mention that my problems were not the result of anything I was going wrong on my end. The CWM Recovery I installed (6.0.4.4) which was downloaded and flashed through the official paid version of Koush's ROM Manager application had a wiping bug.

As of the writing of this (11/21, 12:40PM ET), there are a number of newer versions of 6.0.4.4 that do wipe correctly. The little Android animation ("Andy") is still out of whack, but other than that things seem to function as expected.

Since there are multiple versions of 6.0.4.4 floating around, I have a feeling this could be confusing to folks.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
did you install gapps?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Jephre:
Hi Striatum_bdr,

Has anyone confirmed that wipe data/factory reset doesn't work with the official CWM recovery? I downloaded ROM Manager and installed my CWM recovery through that...so I'm guessing that's the official version?

I just tried to wipe data/factory reset my N5, accidentally rebooted it right after my supposed reset. Turns out, all my apps were intact and nothing (at least that I can tell) happened. I rebooted a second time from recovery and yep, nothing happened to my N5. Is anyone else getting this issue?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] J0ESK0:
It seems that there are issues with Official CWM. The unofficial one here has been working like a charm since the N5 was released. It has touch navigation via swipes and definitely works at completely wiping and restoring. I've been changing ROMs like a madman since release and have not had one single issue using the Unofficial recovery.

Just make sure you wait for everything to finish. Wiping/formatting cache and system takes a little longer then usual.. let it finish and you'll be fine. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Jephre:
Thanks J0ESK0,

For the unofficial recovery, can I just install this over the old official one through ROM manager?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] szucsgf:
You can flash it via fastboot or use flashify from Google play.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Neejay:
Please don't remove this recovery...for me, this is the only way cwmr is usable (swipe navigation) until TWRP works a few bugs out.

Right now, cwmr is 100% and TWRP is sometimes hit or miss.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Flakito97:
Any way this can be made into a flashable. Zip file? In running twrp recovery and I would like to have the unofficial build with the swiping gestures but I don't have access to a computer: (
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Jephre:
Hi Flakito97,

On the sidebar of this thread, there should be a list of recommended posts from this thread. The one at the top by Markus75 (?) has the flashable zip for the unofficial CWM recovery.

How to fix permissions on cwm recovery?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Striatum_bdr:
Feature removed as it's unsafe, and source of many bugs.

It's nonsense to set a whole system files to the same permissions.

The only good way to do this is during Rom install, the update script must take care of setting proper permissions.

So you won't find this feature in cwm.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
Correct it was taken out a few versions ago. It was originally a temp fix for a issues back on froyo and hasnt done jack but build myths since then, thus it finally being removed.

And koush had been busy and hopefully has a few things fixed.

Andy will still be all jacked up. I submitted a patch to gerrit thats still awaiting approval and merging. ;)

And I will merge said fixes and rebuild my img too for those who are digging the swipe. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Natakranta:
Your swipe feature to navigate and confirm/back is fabulous! I prefer it 10 times more to actually touching the tiny lines in CWM. With CWM Touch it was too easy to tap wrong line. That's why I was always using non-touch CWM with volume rocker and power button. Your swipe up-down and left-right is precise and convenient. I'm not moving to the official one unless I can have swiping.

Kudos to you Sir!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Any way to flash this in terminal?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
yea...

adb push the img or download it from the device and:

su

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.0/by-name/recovery bs=4096

using the correct path and img name (or rename) of course. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] 75markus:
if anybody likes, i packaged the new

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Vortex1969:
I'm on unofficial and it has been working great big thanks...

Is there any problems with the new touch version.

Thanks..

PSX for Nexus 5 under the hood
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
no one has said lol. koush pushed some workarounds for the slow wipes. So hopefully thats better in official and unofficial.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] LNJ:
Is there a new version of the official out or still the same one?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
its still 6.0.4.4 but it has changes on the device tree side to help the slow wipes. Official will still have a jacked up Andy for the moment too. Clockworkmod has been bumped to 6.0.4.5 on both the cm-10.2 and cm-11.0 branches tho. So a future .5 build is prolly likely. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] LNJ:
Thanks for the info.

A little off topic but I flashed back my stock recovery just so that I have no issues for OTAs however I notice I can't get back to the stock recovery menu anymore...

Just the Android logo with the red triangle now. Not getting the option list of the stock recovery anymore.

Any ideas? I tried flashing via Flashify as well as fastboot.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
unfortunately I dont know anything about it. I dont have a N5 yet and never experienced that with my Gnexus.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] adrman:
That's the route I was planning on taking as well, but haven't tried flashing stock recovery back yet. Had anyone else experienced this problem?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gee one:
Isn't there some secret key combo to unlock the menu? Hold volume down and press power? Then UUDDLRLRABBA.

sent while running with scissors
[Nexus 5 Android Development] LNJ:
That's the bootloader mode. When you choose Recovery in that menu you just get an icon now when reverted back to stock recovery. Before flashing custom recovery, the stock recovery had options you can choose like factory reset and so on.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PaY87:
Any news if official touch recovery is working fine now? If yes I also would suggest to move it to "original dev" forums, again.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] theesotericone:
First, your swipe version is pretty damn good and I would love to see you continue with it.

Second, I never realized you didn't even own this phone. This community owes you a ton. I'd hate to be stuck with only the other recovery.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
The swipe function is gweedo767's doing. I just added the needed flag and compiled it. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ogboot:
Thanks PG I've been using this since you posted it so grateful!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PlayfulGod:
I posted a new build that should help with the slow wipes too. ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] casonswag:
Maybe using a superwipe.zip would wipe faster you think?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] theesotericone:
Wipe times are no longer an issue. Just flashed playfuls new swipe-able build and it wiped like it should. Formatting of cache, data and system took only a few seconds each. Yeah I can hyper flash again. lol I also restored a backup made with the earlier version with no issues. So it's all good. I'm gonna go on a flashing spree now that I don't have to wait a year for everything to format. I'll post up if anything seems amiss but so far it looks really good.
