[myTouch 4G General] losinc:
alright so in a nutshell all i did was delete the folder on my SD card called clockwork

re-flashed the recovery again told the app to reboot into recovery and it seems to work

i'm doing a back up as we speak. they only catch is i can't seem to get into recovery while holding home. i have to wait for the phone to boot and rom manager to reboot into recovery.

p.s. where is the amon RA recovery for the the mt4g/glacier
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
use the trackpad not the power button.
[myTouch 4G General] VibrantOwnr:
Thanks, that was the problem
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
Now I just need something to flash...I got the flashing itch.
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
Has anyone else noticed when you power your phone off it instead reboots into Clockwork Recovery?
[myTouch 4G General] Thumper1226:
Sorry for being a noob as I am comming over from many jailbroken iphones and this is my first android. But what are the pros of clockwork? Is there a faq somewhere on this website that explains things in general?
[myTouch 4G General] Scoop24:
after letting rom manager fix my permission. every thing runs perfect now . just did a backup with no issues.
[myTouch 4G General] Scoop24:
not having this issue. mine reboots back up the normal way...
[myTouch 4G General] VibrantOwnr:
+1, just double checked
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
I wasn't rebooting, I was selecting power down in the power menu and it takes me to clockwork.
[myTouch 4G General] Scoop24:
yea i tested it. not having that problem. it starts up the normal way for me.
[myTouch 4G General] FckingAllen:
I had to flash the recovery twice through the app to get it to "Stick" I guess. the first time it just took me to the default. rebooted. clicked to install again, and it booted right up. about to perform a back up. =]

EDIT: can we partition? o.O
[myTouch 4G General] itmustbejj:
I wonder what could be the cause then...hmmm
[myTouch 4G General] cal3thousand:
Same here.

partitioning (if i got your question right) would require development (I believe in the SPL).... iirc FireRat also created a method to do it on the G1 to create custom partition sizes.

Would be nice to gain some of that bloatware's space into another partition.
[myTouch 4G General] brian6685:
I'm sorry I'm sure this was said somewhere but I can't find it for the life of me. How do I get s-off after rooting with visionary?

Edit: nevermind, sorry found it
[myTouch 4G General] skyungjae:
"MyTouch 4G" showed up on HSDPA for me when I flashed the recovery. I didn't need wifi.
[myTouch 4G General] ESKIMOn00b:
Re partition the phone? Wait a few days/weeks... re partition the SD card I dunno... I'm outta town and I can't be without a phone if I screw up....
[myTouch 4G General] newbie2006:
Ok i understand that - but how do i fix this - no matter what i do i still get the exclamation point when booting into recovery.
[myTouch 4G General] gaww:
I had to reflash recover a few times before it stuck. If you are getting the exclamation point, it probably has not.
[myTouch 4G General] newbie2006:
yeah reflashed 4 times now - says mytouch - says successful - but everytime i click reboot into recovery then its the excalimation point... this sucks. will keep trying.
[myTouch 4G General] motorjonny:
i followed someones instructions to remove the folder clockwork created, delete clockwork, resinstall... worked for me
[myTouch 4G General] newbie2006:
AHHHH! exclamation point of death!

Ok I am despite my name - not that new - i rooted phones since the g1, nexus one, capitvate and vibrant. But this is annoying... I deleted the folder - uninstalled - reinstall - reflashed over and over again , and STILL getting that damn exclamation point.

EDIT: Even reflashed - powered off - then held down power and volume key - booted into recovery same crap...

What the hec?

Edit:2 - NEVER MIND - SOLUTION? RE-DID ROOT everything except the part about running visionary - since it was already ROOTED.
[myTouch 4G General] blakestimac:
So is the Recovery not available for manual installation? I had issues with my G2 using ROM Manager, and the Clockwork wouldn't stick even though it said the flash was successful. I'd much rather just flash the thing through fastboot.
[myTouch 4G General] gaww:
Have you update or re-installed ROM manager in the last day? There were issues that seem to have been cleaned up. Try it again after being sure you have the latest.

Mine works good now, and it also comes up with manual boot into recovery also.

Now i am hoping to see them get an alternate recovery up for the MT4G - found it was real helpful at times on my N1
[myTouch 4G General] blitz911:
updated rom manager and clicked install clockwork flash maybe like 4-5 times, pulled battery, went into rom manager, installed again and clicked reboot into recovery and tada..clockwork recovery.
[myTouch 4G General] jbrew78:
Successful ROM Flash?

Anybody else made a ROM in the kitchen and tried flashing it through this recovery? I made one, checked the update script in the kitchen. It said there were no issues. However, when I try to flash the ROM on the phone the recovery can't find the boot image. Anyone got any ideas?
[myTouch 4G General] Whosdaman:
Moved the general section due to non-development related topic
[myTouch 4G General] Noob01:
wait.. so can you explain what exactly you did to get the exclamation point off? or to actually make the recovery work?

EDIT: nvm, fixed it. i had to do the manual root which turns S=off
[myTouch 4G General] Dreh4christ:
Is there a permanent root for mt4g
[myTouch 4G General] grankin01:
Yes, its in the development section.

My MyGlacier 4G MINE!!!
[myTouch 4G General] dustrho:
I'm having exactly the same problem with mine.

EDIT - Nevermind, as I was able to get this working after flashing 5 times and then rebooted into recovery. That worked just fine for me. Performed a successful backup of the phone as well. Now it's just a waiting game for CyanogenMod ROMs. :D
[myTouch 4G General] ryan562:
awesome, thanks for the head'sup. i just installed rom manager and flashed the recovery (mytouch4g is now listed). haven't tried every thing yet but i just tried "Fix permissions" because of some issues i was having with some apps and force closing. worked like a charm.:cool: haven't tried to boot in to recovery yet.
[myTouch 4G General] VibrantOwnr:
for some reason, my phone reboots into clockwork when my phone is powered off and i plug in the charge.

to replicate,

1. turn off phone

2. plug in charger

3. led notification turns on

4. wait about 30 secs

5. clockwork shows up

anyone else have this problem?
[myTouch 4G General] borodin1:
Agh... can't wait to start figuring all this out as soon as I get my MT4G on Tuesday. I think I'll wait for Amon_RA recovery though... never had any luck with Clockwork for some reason.
[myTouch 4G General] c_licious:
Seems to be a common problem. Anyone figured out how to fix it yet?
[myTouch 4G General] HeavyComponent:
Clockwork Recovery would stick for me now I'm glad. :D
[myTouch 4G General] Phateless:
Do you have quick boot enabled? That would be my first guess.
[myTouch 4G General] dustrho:
It's actually called Fast Boot and can be found here...

Settings > Applications > Fast boot
[myTouch 4G General] Phateless:
I know but I don't like how close fast boot is to fastboot. Ya know? :)
[myTouch 4G General] Strapt:
I have had no issues with the boot up into recovery with it charging and the power off.
[myTouch 4G General] VibrantOwnr:
i do not have fast boot enabled.
[myTouch 4G General] c_licious:
Nope.
[myTouch 4G General] kirkcody:
Me too

As I was just about to make a post about the same ? it seems that my phone also boots into clockworkmod recovery when powered off and charging it just automatically does it....WTF!!!!!!!!!!!
[myTouch 4G General] bobsbbq:
How to uninstall the clockwork ROM manager and recovery mod? I was going to try to put my MT4G back to Factory before returning it. But Trying a Factory reset just brought me to the Recovery mod screen. I tried uninstalling Rom manager but still the same. I ended up taking it back anyway and they never checked so I have my black one now and happy.

I would still like to know and it might be useful to others as well.
[myTouch 4G General] Beast84:
I get the same thing but only if its plugged in when I power down.

Same issue here as well...
[myTouch 4G General] losinc:
i'm also having the same issue.

i've flashed it multiple times and still get the same results.
[myTouch 4G General] Foo_Blyat:
you guys need to stop crying, this has been a known issue since the ARIA was rooted. They too lost their "cool" battery charging image when phone is off but plugged in and instead it boots the phone directly to recovery.

It really isnt a big deal, just leave the phone on when charging, and if its a noise issue just set it all to silent or vibrate.
[myTouch 4G General] Beast84:
No one was crying. Its called stating an issue. If it doesn't bother you, next thread. Don't clutter this one with your negative attitude. No one likes it & no one wants it. Some of us like software that functions like it states.

On that note... has anyone brought this issue up to Koush? Maybe it can be fixed in a future update
[myTouch 4G General] c_licious:
Not quite sure how the fact that this problem has been around since the ARIA has been rooted makes it any less of an issue?? Not sure either what "cool"battery charging image you're talking about. Some people, me included, just like to be able to turn their phone off every so often while still being able to charge it. Couldn't find anyone "crying" about it either, just some people mentioning it, wondering if there are others with the same problem and if there's a fix to it.
[myTouch 4G General] kettlecorn:
sorry but what is clockwork? 10 pages of thread on it should mean it does something cool.

btw, im new to the whole root thing.. had a g1 stock for 2 years and just ordered a mytouch so trying to climb the learning curve.
[myTouch 4G General] VibrantOwnr:
It is a recovery platform that tout can boot into letting you make backups of your phone, flash mods and much more. Download rom manager off of the market. Turn on wifi. Open rom manager, click flash clockwork recovery and choose mytouch 4g. You must have root.
[myTouch 4G General] floepie:
Does anyone know if this CWM flashes over your existing built-in stock recovery? Or, does it function the way it does on the Vibrant where it exists in a RAMdisk with no overwriting of the stock recovery.

I'd hate not to be able to flash the stock recovery and by not having one available. Thanks.
[myTouch 4G General] gaww:
It appears to flash over stock recovery. If you uninstall it - their recovery remains.

Would be nice if it could be recovered from the stock ROM files, or if a flashable stock recovery file could be posted.
[myTouch 4G General] bobsbbq:
I'm not sure but I think it does. I would like more confirmation on this as well. When I returned my last one I had already permrooted it and had clockwork recovery installed and I could not get the recovery off. I just turned it in and they didn't check. But I was in my 14 day remorse period. Not sure what would happen if you sent it in for warranty.
[myTouch 4G General] floepie:
Well, what happens if you remove CWM and/or ROM Manager from the SD card and the update.zip at the root of the SD card. I guess that would tell you whether or not for sure if CWM flashes over the top of the stock recovery.

I think this would be a dealbreaker for me unless the stock recovery is available to be flashed. Further, if it even is available, what tool would we use to flash the recovery? ODIN is used in the Samsung world, but I'm not so sure about what HTC uses. Anyone?
[myTouch 4G General] JWhipple:
For those of you who want it, I have posted the stock recovery image if you want to revert back from ClockWork.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=843289
[myTouch 4G General] JWhipple:
You would need to be rooted (obviously, otherwise you couldn't have ClockWorkMod on there!) and need to use Fastboot to flash the original back.

ALSO - you would need to have S=OFF during the flash.
[myTouch 4G General] Whosdaman:
Who wants to be the person that writes a guide on how to flash the CWM through ADB for the users ;)
[myTouch 4G General] daewond3r:
This is awesome. Performing a backup right now :D
[myTouch 4G General] Zenijourr:
Anyone figure out a solution for this at all? Normally I would'nt care but I really wanted to get in a full cycle recharge from full to dead then charge while completely off and I can't because of clockwork.
[myTouch 4G General] option94:
I'll do it.
[myTouch 4G General] BopChie:
Thanks, we just got my buds loaded up this way.. he dont have wifi at his place so this was useful!!!
[myTouch 4G General] cdw9800:
I also got the issue I thought I was the only one
[myTouch 4G General] option94:
Glad I could help.
[myTouch 4G General] Vanquiz:
Installed clockworkmod, and finally manage to make my first backup ever, a quick question, after the backup is done, when I choose reboot, the phone turned off, and I cant turn it back on with pressing the power button, have to do battery pull, is that how it is work, or I miss something in the setting?

Thanks guys ...
[myTouch 4G General] dustrho:
This happens to me as well.
[myTouch 4G General] daewond3r:
Are you using the power button to select reboot? If so, you're not rebooting, that just turns the screen off (weird, I know). Use the trackpad button to select reboot.
[myTouch 4G General] sicdroid:
+1 On that. Works how it should that way.
[myTouch 4G General] losinc:
i'm having the same issue on a friends phone.
[myTouch 4G General] vw671:
THANK YOU!!!!! You save my life!
[myTouch 4G General] daewond3r:
Here you go.
[myTouch 4G General] X_Cerberus_X:
I'm guessing no one else has the issue of phone booting into recovery when you plug it in? I've seen only a few say that they have had this problem but fixed it by flashing CWM again. I've flashed 8 or more times and it fixes nothing at all. :mad:
[myTouch 4G General] paradox4286:
can also use the camera button to reboot or select
[myTouch 4G General] jjlean:
Now that I had to root again it is booting into recovery. Doesn't seem to do it with fast boot on.
[myTouch 4G General] ags29:

[myTouch 4G General] Daguse:
Need some help here....

I rooted and confirmed s=off, and can access superusers. However whenever I start clockwork it says it does not root access. Anyone know what else can be done?
[myTouch 4G General] tenbeau:
I am having a slightly different issue with plugging in the device while off and the sim card is out. It goes into clockworkmod Recovery. If I power off again it does not it the second time. It only does it with the sim card out and device powered off. With the sim card in it is business as usual, it just charges normally.
[myTouch 4G General] tenbeau:
I know this is a very simplistic answer and you probably have done it but have you gone into SU and given permission to it? I have had to do that in the past although not with this phone. Just trying to be of a little help.
[myTouch 4G General] Daguse:
turns out it was an issue with my root.
[myTouch 4G General] gaww:
alternate recovery ?

I had gotten used to flipping back and forth in Clockwork on my N1 from their recovery and the alternate (Aaron). Any word on when Clockwork might be able to include an alternate recovery on the the MT4G?
[myTouch 4G General] likeitnot:
I will be doing this soon but it seems from the looks in here that there are some problems with it?! So I guess I will wait before doing so =/

THANK YOU though, this is great!

BTW for future reference do I need to get Rom Manager (Premium) or is the free one okay as well? Just making sure. Thanks
[myTouch 4G General] daewond3r:
Anyone figure out the plug-in = recovery issue? I'm trying to figure out how I'm gonna do some conditioning if I can't charge the phone with it completely off.

It seems like my only option is to flash the stock recovery and keep it that way for a week or so.
[myTouch 4G General] 1Satoshi:
well somebody mentioned turning on fastboot. i tried that, and it worked. just go to settings, applications, enable fast boot.

only thing im concerned about is, what exactly does fast boot do besides speed up booting??
[myTouch 4G General] daewond3r:
If fastboot is on, then the phone isn't really off is it? (not being a ****, serious question)

From what I understood the phone still has power and is just in a hibernation mode. What I want is to drain the battery until it won't even turn on, then charge (while the phone is off) well past the notification light turning green.

Either way, I did a nandroid backup and flashed the stock recovery back so I could get what I needed. No messing with my phone until I get a few full charges done.
[myTouch 4G General] mackster248:
Yeah your phone is not really off when its in fastboot. Just HTC's clever way of putting it in hybernation like a computer. And i feel you... i cant recalibrate my battery with this issue. I wish there was a power off option in clockwork like in Amon ra's recovery. I wish Amon ra had a recovery for this phone =( still the best recovery IMO.
[myTouch 4G General] stlouie65:
I agree, that would be WONDERFUL
[myTouch 4G General] jjlean:
Yea it works. On CM mod is it real hard to add fastboot? I hate not bring able to shut off my phone.
[myTouch 4G General] splnlss:
clockworkMod brick?

Some other folks had this problem in earlier in the thread...

After rebooting into clockworkMod recovery, I selected reboot system with trackball, and the phone just went blank. But it wasn't the screen going into standbye. It's flat out blank. The little orange LED doesn't even show when charging. How could rebooting (what appears to be) brick the phone?

I removed the battery, held down lower volume + power, home + power, and tried to nurture it back to health but its. blank. no lights. any thought on how to save it?
[myTouch 4G General] infraled:
Booting into recovery when charging

I am having the issue where if I turn off my phone completely and then go to plug it in the charge it, the device boots up again and into clockwork recovery. Had there been a solution to this yet? I have tried reflashing clockworkmod and it still exhibits the same behavior.
[myTouch 4G General] shlongwoodian:
Looks like an earlier post shows enabling Fast Boot is the *fix...

Is that the official workaround for now? My battery is conditioned, so I don't have any need to charge w/ the power off, but one should be able to if one so chooses.
[myTouch 4G General] infraled:
Confirming that turning on fastboot did indeed "solve" the issue with booting into recovery when the usb cable is attached to charge the phone. I had thought it was already selected. It's close enough of a workaround...I wonder how the new version of clockwork would handle this issue though. I'll report back if I get brave enough to load it.
[myTouch 4G General] jjlean:
It's the official workaround for now.
[myTouch 4G General] A|G:
???

..Did not work for me no matter what i chose ;-|

any help please!
[myTouch 4G General] bitbybit:
While not ideal, also read that people were having luck plugging in the phone first and then powering off to charge when running near empty.

Resetting Dev Phone

Hi

I've a wp7 dev phone, If I reset the phone, will that erase the dev apps (ex: start Kitl)?

(I need to change my Windows Live ID)

Thanks

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ohgood:
If the ui doesn't allow you to choose between different liveid's, that's a huge fail for me personally. How would you save contacts to different accounts, etc ?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sermann:
You can use multiple accounts, but you can not change/remove the main Live ID without resetting the phone. App purchases and settings are linked to the main account.

When creating a contact (or an email, appointment, ...) you get to choose which account it will be linked to.

no group chat :(
[Android Apps and Games] dkelle4:
I used Whatsapp and personally like it better, but I like Kik's ability to tell you when it is sent\delivered\read while Whatsapp just tells you if its sent\delivered. I don't need group chat so that's a moot point for myself
[Android Apps and Games] drauks:
PingChat has group chat, shows when send/read, can send pics, video, audio, contacts, maps. And it's free.
[Android Apps and Games] cronikslacker:
I'm currently using pingchat for these reasons. That and Kik was draining the battery on my Incredible :-/
[Android Apps and Games] Quilombo:
Couple of gripes I have with KiK and had to get rid of it. From my limited use (2-3 days), I learned:

-you cannot log out of KiK.

-it automatically adds contacts without your approval and worse, it lets these contacts know you've signed on to KiK as well. I dont know about others but I dont necessarily want IM access to everyone in my contact list.

-it adds people that you dont even know (saw ppl on my list that I dont know) to your contact list.

-You can get random requests from ppl you dont know to add you just the same.

It seems like a very good beginning efforts but more control and privacy measures need to be put into before I'll try it again.

And, lastly, it was draining my battery ...

These are all from personal use and observation.

This is the initial release of my latest Application called locationAlarm.

This App can wake you when you really need it! Not based on Alarm Time as usual, but on the location you are in right now!

You surely have heard about this kind of alarm Clocks existing for Android or iOS and now it does for Windows Mobile too!

As special functions of this program, it does warn you if the signaling does not work for ten minutes, and your phone does not know its location anymore!

Also it will warn you with the alarm sound if the batterie level gets critical.

It does not only work with GPS but also with Traingualtion

The Gui again is fingerfriendly (of course) and does rely on the superb SenseSDK 1.39.

Donations are very Welcome!

The Program is available in WWE, German, French, Dutch, Italian, Spanish and Leetspeak ;)
