[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
i doubt you guys can help me, but i am having serious issues trying to restore my nand backups that i made last night. i made 2 backups, and today i jacked up my phone with the latest cm nightly, so restoring any of the 2 backups and they hang on different files during the restore process. one that stands out is DATA_PHOTO XXXXXXXXXX something or other for the one backup. then the other one hangs on a different file.

then i decided to roll back to previous versions of clockwork recovery just to see if it worked with those, but no go.

now finally i did a complete re-flash of the cyan nightly, lost all my stuff and had to start fresh, and did a test nand backup, and it does indeed restore. so i'm at a loss. i really need to go back to one of these backups. the names are not changed or anything, just hangs during restore.

anyone please help??

I can't get this to finish a nandroid back up. It goes through everything (I think), the yellow bar gets to the very end and nothing happens from there and I can't do anything from that point - I have to pull the battery.
[Nexus One Android Development] jocaferlo:
I had the same problem with this recovery. What I did was to use a previous backup nandroid.

Your problem is if the backup you want to restore was made with errors. In your case what I would do would be flash Amon_RA recovery and try restore your nandroid with it.

And .... in any case: What I did was reflash Amon_RA recovery, this never gave me any errors.
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
Oh I tried that. I flashed amon recovery, no go. Then I rolled back previous versions of clockwork, I went right down the line trying every previous version. No go. These are working backups and I'm just at a loss and so frustrated I lost everything. I'm very careful and always make backups. I created 2 backups the day this happened specifically for upgrading the nightly, and they're toast. Very frustrated. At this point I'm all setup on a fresh ROM so that's all in the past.
[Nexus One Android Development] crachel:
is your phone plugged into the charger while trying to restore? might try restoring with it plugged in.. long shot i know, but worth a shot
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
Yeah I was plugged in. No worries, but now I'm just worried about the integrity of every backup I make. Like right now I want to install sim toolkit and I have no idea if it screws up will I be able to restore a backup. The downside is mind blowingly frustrating as you suddenly don't have a working phone that even boots up. It's unacceptable.
[Nexus One Android Development] allofusjw:
I can't recall exactly what it's called because I don't use this recovery anymore due to similar issues but have you tried to do what I think is called "advanced restore" in clockwork recovery? If you select that option you can selectively apply what you want recovered...system, data etc. I'm guessing that your data is what is most important to recover. Try a total wipe, flash the rom you're using then try restoring only only the "data" if that's what you need. Or, you could always try creating a rom from your backup using the dsixda kitchen. I haven't tried cooking a rom from a recovery image though so I'm unsure exactly what happens to your data stuff. Worth at least investigating though. Good luck!
[Nexus One Android Development] jocaferlo:
Yes, Data is the most important, but when the restore failed to me was precisely when it was restoring data...:mad::mad:
[Nexus One Android Development] teh_lorax:
Can anyone explain why this is the preferred recovery of Cyanogenmod?
[Nexus One Android Development] crachel:
both this and Amon_Ra recovery are referenced in Cyanogen Wiki.. so I wouldn't say its the preferred, just that the guy who developed this one also happens to work on CyanogenMod
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
yes i did go that route too, and i was actually able to get DATA to restore. but for some reason it wasnt stable and ended up just starting fresh. but its good to know that the DATA portion can be restored without issue independent of the full backup. what happens if you restore to a completely different ROM? heheh wonder if it'd work..
[Nexus One Android Development] GoliathTheRipper:
Can I install Amon_RA recovery with ROM MANAGER???
[Nexus One Android Development] mobiousdigital:
Nope you can't
[Nexus One Android Development] SWEETTOOTH:
yes you can install it by rom manager but you will need to do everything manually through the recovery unlike the clockwork recovery as you do everything through the app
[Nexus One Android Development] GoliathTheRipper:
How can I install Amon_RA recovery with ROM Manager ??
[Nexus One Android Development] apollostees:
Last I checked (about 2 seconds ago) rom manager was almost completely useless without clockwork mod recovery.

Which means no go for aman_ra.

If you try to select: install rom, download rom, or check for rom updates you will be automatically prompted to install clockwork mod recovery.
[Nexus One Android Development] GoliathTheRipper:
Clockwork is a good recovery ??? I have a HTC Hero CDMA NON-Sprint do you think I gonna have a problem when I go to flash a rom ??

Exist another way to install Amon_RA ??
[Nexus One Android Development] cyberchuck9000:
Just install Amon_RA via Rom Manager. You lose a lot of app functionality, but it's the easiest way to get Amon_RA, and it's still useful as a quick Fix Permissions button.

I went back to RA because I no long trust ClockworkMod after it nuked my SD card during a Nandroid backup. I still have Rom Manager installed though just in case.
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
I again had major issues last night trying to restore any of my nand backups. They keep hanging on a certain file. This time while restoring data, it hung on an event_wwwwwww.txt file.

Finally I was able to advanced restore each portion individually and got my phone back. But this is now a major problem for me as I can't trust the integrity of any backups I create. Maybe my memory card is starting to fail? I'm at a loss.
[Nexus One Android Development] GoliathTheRipper:
this is the issue, how can I install Amon_RA via ROM MANAGER ????
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
Did you even open ROM manager and look? Right there at the bottom it says flash alternate recovery, amon ra. It's right there.
[Nexus One Android Development] ram130:
no it's not failing..same problem HERE
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
Did you mean to post a link, or are you having the same issue as me? If so, what exactly happens for you. Does it hang on a certain file in the middle of the restore process?
[Nexus One Android Development] ram130:
Yes exactly. It happen on my first try and got real nervous and pissed because I felt like I had to start over.
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
Did you try advanced restore? This worked for me and solved my issue, at least allowed me to get my data back and phone working.
[Nexus One Android Development] ram130:
Yes thats what saved me. I'm just worried about next time if it doesn't work :( ...why don't they fix the bug man?
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
I don't know. Do they know of the bug or are we the only people having issues? Does the developer monitor this thread? Prob not so someone should file a bug report.
[Nexus One Android Development] ram130:
Exactly my thoughts
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
I sent an email to the developer thru the market.
[Nexus One Android Development] dvandam:
I'm a total noob when it comes to this stuff (rooting, custom roms, etc) and I'm running into issues getting a custom ROM installed. I rooted my phone using Universal Androot so the bootloader is still locked, and installed ROM Manager because it appeared to be a "simple" way to install custom roms without going through all that command prompt stuff. I tried flashing the ClockWorkMod recovery and it appeared to install correctly, but when I try to boot into it via Rom Manager, it basically just boots into the regular recovery, meaning I can't run a Nandroid backup (which, from what I can tell, is CRUCIAL before installing a custom rom.) Does anyone have any tips? Is it because my bootloader is still locked even though the phone is rooted? Do I need to do everything within Rom Manager? I did a backup within Rom Manager (Backup Current ROM) but I don't think that's the same thing as the Nandroid. Do I need to use the RA Recovery instead, which doesn't work as well with Rom Manager?

TIA

Update: On a probably related note, I just installed Titanium Backup and it claimed that I do NOT have root access, but Rom Manager and SetCPU claimed that I do. Do I have some sort of "quasi" root access going?
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
its possible that ROM manager doesnt work if you rooted without unlocking the bootloader. maybe they didnt even test it with the new root method and just left it with the original rooting method of unlocking the bootloader, flash custom recovery, etc.
[Nexus One Android Development] dvandam:
It's starting to look more like the phone isn't really rooted. I have found other people are experiencing similar issues with the 1-click rooting program. Tonight I'm just going to try and do a "proper" rooting without unlocking the bootlocker with the instructions in Google Groups.
[Nexus One Android Development] RogerPodacter:
I sent a bug report to the developer thru the market email function for what its worth.
[Nexus One Android Development] SiNJiN76:
Titanium backup gives you that message...if you don't have busy box installed. Just hit the Problems? Button on the bottom and then hit yes.
[Nexus One Android Development] SiNJiN76:
Works just fine without an unlocked bootloader.
[Nexus One Android Development] Memnoch30:
Same here!
[Nexus One Android Development] ram130:
Yea your recovery is not sticking..you need delete a file first or it will keep reverting back to stock..dnt remember which..google it..
[Nexus One Android Development] Memnoch30:
Also, flash alternate recovery and then flash clockwork recovery again.
[Nexus One Android Development] mofoliar:
i installed rom manager, and i try to flash clockmod recovery and get a message

"an error occured while attempting to run privileged commands"
[Nexus One Android Development] navahoo:
what happens when i try to install this recovery through the rom manager in cm rc3 on top of amon re recovery?
[Nexus One Android Development] mofoliar:
i get the same message if try any option in rom manager!
[Nexus One Android Development] Memnoch30:
You need to be rooted.
[Nexus One Android Development] mofoliar:
i installed 1 click root for N1 and still not able to run rom manager, why does it have to be such a headache for an easy task...
[Nexus One Android Development] Memnoch30:
Did you run the app and choose Root after you installed it?
[Nexus One Android Development] mofoliar:
i did did but just reinstalled it and i am good to go, thanks! runnin cm 6 rc3

thanks again
[Nexus One Android Development] hmanxx:
Hi,

I have just rooted my Nexus one with the recent wifi exploit method..Root manager is working fine (confirmed rooted properly, can run rooted apps). I am new to custom recovery ROM. Before i apply clockwork mod recovery rom.

One fundamental question, is the process reversible to go back to stock recovery rom ,if yes how to do it. ?

I have the FRF91 OTA file..which contains recovery-from-boot.p , Can I use the fastboot recovery command to flash the stock recovery image back..

Browsing through 25++ pages but couldnt find the answer.

thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] izmatron:
Yes, backup before you flash. So then if you need to, restore the backup and you are back to basics.
[Nexus One Android Development] hmanxx:
Does it backup recovery rom ?

Is Froyo recovery rom same as Eclair ?
[Nexus One Android Development] bluediablito:
help me any one..........

so i just rooted my evo with simpleroot and i flash clockwork recovery onto my phone. i did a nandroid backup with clockwork in the recovery mode and everything work. now i downloaded rom manager free and i tried to do a backup trough rom manager and i get "an error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands"

i know i am rooted because i can go into clockwork recovery and also when ever i boot up i get a custom boot loader

any help please
[Nexus One Android Development] pzumk:
There's been an Update (today I guess)

mount USB storage means you can be in the recovery and connect the phone with the computer to put files on it like Amon_RA's recovery does?

If yes: Great.

I had a bootloop 2 days ago and didnt want to wipe. Thats why I flashen Amon_RA's recovery to use the usb connect feature to put a rom on my sd card to flash it again and fix the bootloop :P
[Nexus One Android Development] hayer:
I dont know if this should be posted here but I'm rooted and have busy box installed on my Magic 32A and i cant install clock work recovery keeps saying "an error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands"
[Nexus One Android Development] Karolis:
OK, so I've read the whole thread and still couldn't find an answer on how to navigate BACK in the recovery.

Currently when I press back button on my Nexus One, I get the message that back menu button is enabled, but if I hit it again, I get the message that it's disabled.

At that point nothing changes on the screen, so I need to go one level deeper and that's when I start seeing go back option.

Is that how it's supposed to work or am I missing something?
[Nexus One Android Development] pzumk:
Try the powerbutton ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] Stu_Gotti:
I'm not able to access the free ROM manager from either the DEV's site or App Market... does anyone know what's up? I am, however, able to download the premium version...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Nexus One Android Development] subramanianv:
I am trying to backup my current rom, it is stuck at backing up .android_secure.

The status bar is full, but nothingis happening for more than 10 minutes now.

How do I get out of this?

Pressing power button does not do anything.

I am on Cyanogen Mod 6 RC3.
[Nexus One Android Development] Karolis:
OK, now you've made me feel stupid :) Cheers for that! And explaining stuff ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] androidjedi:
rom manager keeps showing the older amon version 1.7 instead of 1.8 what the hell is going on -getting a bit frustrated. i have flashed the new amon 1.8.0.1 successfully but the damn rom manager keeps showing the older version.what am i doing wrong?
[Nexus One Android Development] makelegs:
I guess I'm still a noob...

My N1 is rooted with unlocked bootloader. I'm running the Modaco rooted/deodexed/busy/tbalert....etc. FRG33. I finally wanted to try to flash cm6 with ROM Manager, but it always aborts. Thank GOD the restore feauture works like a champ, b/c I've used it numerous times due to the fact that I understood it was best to do a wipe when installing CM6 for the first time. I even re-formatted my sdcard, thinking maybe that would help. It didn't. In recovery it keeps giving me a "welcome to cm6" (or something like that) but proceeds to abort every time. Is there some step that I've failed to complete which makes this process work???

Pretty sure I thoroughly searched this, but really thought it was supposed to be easier than this.

Thanks in advance...
[Nexus One Android Development] Goblinlord:
If the dev is around... any way we could get SLCD N1 support. I have been having to use Amon_Ra 1.8.0.1 and have no issue with it... I do think some of the features for yours are a bit nicer though.

is it possible to save backups to a phones internal storage (my DInc has 8 gigs built in)? my sdcard is only 2 gigs and I can only fit at most 2 backsup at one time.
[Nexus One Android Development] ssmithri:
I purchased the Premium version (really worth it) but had a major issue with my rom before I had a chance to back up the app.

I ended up having to wipe and was able to restore the free version from backup, but had no way to recover the Premium version. I sent email with my Google checkout receipt... anyone else had this issue?

Is there a solution?
[Nexus One Android Development] l0uisz:
hello all! ive downloaded this program and i went to the RESTORE / BACKUP section to back up my Stock 2.2 rom and now my phone ( NEXUS ONE ) is stuck with the " triangle / exclamation point and small android " how can i get it out this ??
[Nexus One Android Development] Anksta:
Sounds like it has booted into the stock recovery not Clockwork. Press Volume Up + Power button together (simultaneously) and you will be prompted with a menu allowing you to reboot.

Google's Stock Android does overwrite the recovery everytime you boot. There is a file called /etc/install_recovery.sh that does this. So basically whilst that is still present, you can at most have one boot into Clockwork.

Once you have booted into your Android, just reinstall Clockwork each time.
[Nexus One Android Development] efrant:
Or just delete/rename that file, and you will keep your custom recovery...

I'm not able to get web connect working, I'm on froyo(cm6-nightly), i'm logged in on my browser and i clicked on web connect on rom manager premium's menu but when I click on a web connect link on my pc browser nothing happens on my phone.

Question

Maybe this has already been answered and I just didn't see it. However, I have a Droid X 2.2 OTA Root. I tried to install this ROM Manager and when I try and back up current rom, I just get a reboot and no success... Same when I try to install theme. This happens even if I check Clear and Data and Cache (with our without "Back up Current Rom")

Anybody got any solutions or suggestions???
[Nexus One Android Development] sigp23940:
Sounds like you do not have clockwork recovery installed this happened to me when I was using amons recovery.
[Nexus One Android Development] miscemayl:
Sorry, wrong forum - I have a SGS - did a search for rom manager and didn't realise this was Nexus 1.
[Nexus One Android Development] BLKro:
I am having a problem. Installed ROM Manager, installed Clockwork Recovery, last night my battery drained and I had to reboot. This morning I tried to enter Clockwork Recovery from Rom Manager (reboot into option) and my HTC Magic is now in a reboot loop. I tried Home+End Call, Back+End Call, still the reboot loop. What is this?
[Nexus One Android Development] Schonn:
I would love to use the ClockWork recovery image, but the only thing that keeps me from making the switch from AmonRa's is that the options in the ClockWork recovery don't begin with a capital letter.. Stupid I know, but it's just a little pet peeve if mine :/
[Nexus One Android Development] stevenperry:
I have a Samsung Captivate and your utility worked fine, up until now. But it has stopped. I am running Cognition 2.2 Beta 5.5 ROM. On reboot to execute a backup I get the following:

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

-- Applying Multi-CSC

Installing Multi-CSC

Installation Aborted

Have tried it twice now with the same result. I also noticed today that ClockworkMod released an update, 2.5.1.2, which ROM Manager downloded. Not sure it matters. I tried reverting yo 2.5.1.0 but same results.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Nexus One Android Development] rony05:
first of all thank you for such a great app. i really love it.

i have a problem though. every time after reboot i have to flash clockwork recovery again. if i dont do it , it reboot into triagle with exclamation mark.

what i'm doing wrong? thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] efrant:
Delete or rename these two files after you flash ClockworkMod, and you will keep your custom recovery:

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh

/system/recovery-from-boot.p

feature ideas for ClockWork Recovery Mod

Hi there,

I am a frequent flasher, with CM nightlies; and I feel like a couple of features would be incredible improvements to CW Recovery:

A) From GUI when you select a ROM to flash, being able to select a few ZIP files to flash in sequence - otherwise an option to stay in recovery after flashing would be nice instead of an automatic reboot

B) When you flash a ROM, you are asked if you want to backup the current ROM and/or wipe data and cache - it would be great if you could just wipe the cache/dalvik-cache

Thanks for the recovery and keep up the great work! Hope you will take these into consideration.
[Nexus One Android Development] moophone:
I'm not sure this is even working. I installed clockwork over stock JPM, unrooted + voodoo pre3.

Selected backup current rom.

It reboots to the Galaxy S boot screen where its been hung for the last 15 mins. Is it doing anything? how long will it take? or should it have booted into recovery where I can see what its doing?

I dont want to abort it if its doing something...
[Nexus One Android Development] moophone:
WARNING: Do not use this with JPM, Froyo, and voodo pre3... bricked my phone. tried fastboot erase recovery but no dice. will have to re-flash the whole thing.

Might be a silly question but I need to know..

I have rooted my N1 without unlocking the bootloader and currently use Amon's Recovery and CM6. Can I just install this recovery via ROM Manager? Just want to make sure i don't lose root/ability to install custom ROMs/brick my phone etc.

Thanks!
[Nexus One Android Development] Memnoch30:
Yes you can. You get the option to install either Clockwork recovery or AmonRa. Clockwork is recommended but to each his own.

[Nexus One Android Development] torchedlh:
yea that's the one thing i dont like so far about this recovery. back is a menu item you select, and if it's not, then you use the power button. kinda weird.
