Recovery Problems?

Good. This seems to be much more stable than the other recoveries I used. But, I'm having issues making a backup. I only have an option to backup to external SD card, but upon attempting a Nandroid backup,

E:unknown volume for path [/emmc/clockworkmod/backup/...]
Can't mount backup path.

This is a bit funky, but not urgent. I still have a mostly stable install of CNA with IcyGlitch V14 B6, but I want to try Gummy on my Showcase. Obviously, I can't try it without having a backup to fall on. Ideas?
[Fascinate Android Development] pdubsfc:
You shouldn't be using this recovery. Odin cwm4 fixed for cm7 recovery. Did you Odin the GB Boot- loaders? You can get them here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21400204

You'll know you have the GB Bootloaders if you have the red ICY Glitch splash screen come up after the Samsung Logo pops up on boot. When all is said and done, for Icy Glitch you should be on cwm 5.5.0.4. Follow Droidstyle's Guide in General Section. Section #4 for ICS ROMs. Make sure to thank him. I used his guide and had no problems. Good luck!
[Fascinate Android Development] droidstyle:
Would you kindly take a step back and do some reading on these forums please... This recovery works on all Touchwiz roms, not anything cm7 or cm9 mtd based.
[Fascinate Android Development] Akkeresu:
Gotchas. Thanks for the info. All of this is VERY new to me, coming from two HTC devices in a row.

I've been reading through various threads over the past week (after an 8 hour binge of getting ICS on this device and finally getting it to stick, and an 18-hour Senior college load. XD) and have been slowly gathering knowledge. [EDIT: I've just come across your guide, so I'm going through that now. I deal with the most irate/agro. sounding comments first, and didn't see pdubsfc's post with your guide. Thanks in advance!)

I guess I'll have to spend a lot more time reading before I do anything else with this phone.

---------- Post added at 03:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:30 AM ----------

I'm not using GB Bootloaders (to my knowledge), I'm using an ICS Build2 bootloader originally provided by Team Hacksung. I flashed them when attempting an initial flash of Gummy, and they got into place successfully, allowing a stable install of CNA.

I'll go through the guide, and will try the CWM4 that has been recommended to me once I have time. Thanks for the tip in the right direction!
[Fascinate Android Development] Robtao:
Don't misread the date on the OP. That is 3/30/2011, not 3/30/2012. I got all excited for a minute there, but this is a year old.
[Fascinate Android Development] scottcwhite:
So what's the best method of getting my wife's rooted, stock 2.2 to ICS ? Follow the directions and links in the "guide" post ?
[Fascinate Android Development] droidstyle:
most certainly
[Fascinate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Everything went smooth as butter. Ended with AOKP ICS. Do you thinks this is the best ICS ROM for the Fascinate ? Wife is not a tinkerer like me so my main and only concern is that her phone is stable. She will have my nuts if she has to deal with random reboots, etc.

And should I leave the ROM Kernel or use Glitch which I love on my Cappy ?

---------- Post added at 06:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:21 PM ----------

I just flashed B6 to AOKP 29 and lost all data. Any clue as to why. Just tried to reflash AOKP29 and now it failed giving me a status 7 error message. Anyone to help as I've just successfully screwed up my wife's phone and she is not happy

---------- Post added at 07:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 PM ----------

Well, I just reran through everything again and am back to AOKP29 ICS with the kernel that came with the ROM. Think I will leave well enough alone and not try to figure out why I can't get glitch B6 working on this as my wife would not know the difference anyways.

This guide was hands down the best step by step I've ever used
[Fascinate Android Development] pdubsfc:
Is Verizon your carrier? Did you try to go to recovery via 3-finger method? You have hold the Power button to get to the Recovery/Reboot options. Going to build 29, did you wipe data, clear cache & dalvik? It's recommended to wipe all three, since it's a new version of Android.
[Fascinate Android Development] pdubsfc:
What recovery are you using? If it's not 5.5.0.4, you are on the wrong one. You can't use the one in this thread for ICS. If all else fails, you may have to Odin back to stock GB EH03 and follow Droidstyle's guide. If you do have to go back to stock, make sure repartition is checked in Odin. Also, don't forget to Odin fixed cwm4 for CM7 (the recovery you need to be on for ICS ROMs) and the GB bootloaders if you want to run Icy Glitch.
[Fascinate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Yes, you and above poster misunderstood my post. I got aokp 29 ICS running perfectly, CWM recovery also works great. My issue was trying to replace the kernel that came with 29 with Glitch B6. Tried 3 times and just kept soft bricking and giving me status 7 errors.
[Fascinate Android Development] pdubsfc:
Try this kernel from the Glitch Team. I'm using it now. Runs great. Did you get NSTools from Market? Don't use Voltage Control.

[Fascinate Android Development] scottcwhite:
You just made me realize my mistake. Feel stupid now. I was trying to flash the glitch B6 I had on my PC which is for my Captivate. DOH! I guess the one specifically for the fascinate probably does flash with a little less problems, lol.
[Fascinate Android Development] pdubsfc:
Good deal! I'm glad you got it figured out.

Need Red Recovery

Rooting from 2.3.5

When I flashed the cwm-recovery-ALL.tar through Odin and later booted my phone into recovery, the red cwm recovery was there with all the options I need. However, any other time I go into recovery after using Odin, I get the blue <3e> recovery.

How do I fix this to where it always loads the CWM Red recovery?

Just annoys me a lot because the blue recovery doesn't give me but like 4 options and I cannot make a nandroid with it since backup/restore is not an option.

Super thanks in advance for the help.

(Sorry, I have been reading through this post for my answer, and it may be in here somewhere, but it's hard to follow along with everything else going on)

[FORGIVE ME. I WORK WITH AN HTC THUNDERBOLT. THE FASCINATE IS AN ALIEN TO ME.]
[Fascinate Android Development] XxStechxX:
Are you flashing a rom right away while your in the red recovery? Other wise it will revert back to stock.
[Fascinate Android Development] RBarnett09:
No, I wasn't flashing a ROM to it.

So basically there is no way to make a backup of the stock ROM, correct?
[Fascinate Android Development] RBarnett09:
Or could I make a nandroid by hooking it back up to Odin, reflashing the .tar file, unplugging, and then immediately back booting into recovery?

Or will doing this cause it to not boot back up properly?
[Fascinate Android Development] times_infinity:
He means if you want to do anything in recovery you need to boot immediately into recovery or cwm will get replaced with stock.
[Fascinate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Once again I need some help with my wife's fascinate. It froze tonight and I had to do a battery pull. Now it won't do nothing but boot into recovery. Tried a full wipe and reinstall if the aokp room but still the same. Anything I can do before going up to the pc and taking everything from scratch ?

[Fascinate Android Development] zunga:
I used CM10.1 for a while on my I9000B and decided to go back to stock gingerbread firmware so I installed a full stock rom with odin. Now I want to go back to CM10.1 again but this darn thing will not boot at all. No matter what I do the phone takes me to CWM right after powering it up. This did not happen before when I first upgraded to CM10.1 a few months ago.

It seems I have a recovery boot loop only with custom roms, which has never happened before. So can I install this fix on my I9000B?
[Fascinate Android Development] ztotherad:
sir, I'd go to your respective rom thread and try to see if you can get your issue worked out there
[Fascinate Android Development] LasVegasRomeo:
Correct bootloaders?. When I had issues once trying to get back up after going over a year with no issues at all was having to go back to an earlier version of gb.. But is the only time I had to do that. With the differences in recovery's and what not between the earlier gb and the higher I am not that familiar with. Just know you gotta pay attention, because of the switch on gb versions. They say cm10 and/or will kill your sdcard possible. I go straight from the beginning now to cm10.1, and skip having to deal with all the other recoveries in between to avoid issues. that's just me. :silly:
[Fascinate Android Development] zunga:
So what do you suggest?

Sorry, english is not my native language so you lost me on differences between recoveries lol

Sounds like you need to install the ROM zip again,,,, if it pops up with an error, that's normal,, just flash one more time and all should be good.

I don't think you got a complete flash.

[Fascinate Android Development] zunga:
Thanks but I did flash it twice

[Fascinate Android Development] hhp_211:
I've noticed that coming from a froyo or gb ROM (on an older cwm recovery) it will usually take 3 time flashing to complete the process

1st flash gets you the newer recovery

2nd flash get you the update error

3rd flash gets the ROM updated

i9000B is a GSM model with the same name but very different internals. This forum and recovery is for the CDMA Verizon Fascinate -- i500 -- only.
[Fascinate Android Development] zunga:
I remember flashing it 3 or 4 times in a row also.

Do you think I should do a step by step upgrade? From stock gingerbread to cm7, cm9, cm10 and cm10.1? I aways went from stock GB to cm9 and then cm10.1 otherwise cm10.1 will give me status7

7 or 0 errors. To make things worse even cm9 will not boot this time.

Section 4

Don't skip anything

Start your odin session with the sd card removed and reinsert with step 15

Bizarre...if I reboot into recovery from ROM manager I end up in green recovery. If I boot to stock recovery and run the update.zip I end up in red recovery.
[Fascinate Android Development] adrynalyne:
Rm doesn't like red...probably a signing key issue. If you delete the update zip copy in the clockwork folder it may* force it to use red.
[Fascinate Android Development] aolander:
Honestly, does Rom Manager have any relevance for DL30 users? The only reason I've used it in the past was to boot recovery when not able to via power menu.

Thanks for the repair Adrynalyne and	JT.
[Fascinate Android Development] dug-e-fresh:
I've got the new red running (with voodoo it would boot directly into this recovery, but now you have to run the update.zip? right?)

My only issue, it does not seem to actually wipe batt stats... how do I do this manually?

def
[Fascinate Android Development] beenz:
To wipe battery stats go to advanced, wipe battery stats. As far as the effectiveness of it, I'm not sure.
[Fascinate Android Development] dkoss:
Thanks. I'm getting the bitmap error messages as well, but seems to work fine. Ran two backups just to verify.
[Fascinate Android Development] facinater:
This is probably accounts for what killed my daily briefing app as well as some other weird problems I've had with things going missing!
[Fascinate Android Development] JoeDat:
Nice! Do we need to wait for a source for permission fixes? That still seems broken. Other than that it works great! You da man as always jt!
[Fascinate Android Development] soba49:
These colors get ambiguous. This is a recovery that doesn't work with voodoo (which is what I previously associated with "red").

Neither this nor green work with ROM Manager on froyo roms, but yet this "red" is still an improvement because green is totally broken and this works hopefully as well as it used to. That is, if I got that correctly.

It would have been pleasant if all versions of CWR could read/write ext2, JFS, RTS, and ext4. I guess the issue with all of these is custom platform specific kernels, permission keys, and perhaps partitioning are needed. Is that why there is all this mess?

Swyped w/ XDA App. When in doubt, mumble.
[Fascinate Android Development] akaine2001:
you are not keepin it gangsta right now homie... just use that **** and if they catch you oh well ... i use tethering sometimes when my home connection is not workin right... but i aint going to not have the froyo for it lol... and its probably only reported when u use the vzw app... ever thought of that?
[Fascinate Android Development] dug-e-fresh:
Should I have Voodoo options? Because I do... this "looks" just like the Voodoo CWM I had on the DL09 roms.

BTW- I am getting these same error codes

def
[Fascinate Android Development] jt1134:
It does have the voodoo options because I'm lazy and compiled that version. The bitmap errors are harmless. Both issues will be resolved at some point.
[Fascinate Android Development] jackmei2:
lol, good enough for me. thanks again for putting this together!
[Fascinate Android Development] phatmhat:
my cwm was working fine before i applied this updated cwm rom. now i can't ever install cwm manager. i always get "an error occurred while downloading your recovery." doesn't matter if i wiped or if im on 3g or wifi.

i've wiped and installed adrynalyn's dl09 root with cwm and superuser. ive wiped and just put the update on and the stock dl09. i've tried different dl30 roms. doesn't matter what i do i can't flash the cwm recovery from the cwm manager in the market.

so what do i do?
[Fascinate Android Development] PJnc284:
huh? you don't want to flash cwm from rom manager after installing the cwm_froyo in the OP.
[Fascinate Android Development] uzumaki82:
Get this same message just booting to recovery although it seems to navigate fine, etc. Green CWM is much easier on the eyes :)

[Fascinate Android Development] soba49:
In truth maybe I really don't. For one it is *great with ROMs like black hole*. It also smooths out some of the rough edges in CWR's interface. I probably cling to it mostly because I registered it.

I would really like to see RM get some love. For instance I think the app should keep a little log of mods applied, restores etc. Since I haven't seen anything new from the developer, I disabled the ads today.

From my perspective it is frustrating that it has become jt1134's burden to support clockwork for our phones. I may be uninformed, but it doesn't seem fair. That said, I am writing out of turn, and I cannot rationally expect updates to be made before we have our official 2.2 drop.

I know, I am uncharacteristically grumpy today. What I mean to be saying is: Thanks JT et al. for your tireless support.

Swyped w/ XDA App. When in doubt, mumble.
[Fascinate Android Development] djp952:
+1 my friend. Between jt, adryn and kaos I'm not sure what we'd do with our spare time around here.

More on topic, CWM has been a royal pain in my rearend since DL30 was leaked, and jt's latest stuff here finally seems to have cured my ills ... and I'm extremely grateful to him for it. Nothing is perfect, but these three gents (if all are indeed gents) deal with a lot of crap from "us" and still crank out the sweet sweet bits we desire. I think I've donated to all three of them by now, and if I missed one ... apologies. The effort is appreciated. Really, it is.
[Fascinate Android Development] Kevin Gossett:
Any word on the battery stats working? Never shows anything after selecting it
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Lazy hell. You know you left that in there because you're gonna drop a Voodoo kernel for DL30 today. :P
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Tried this.

Had to remove the recovery-update.zip file from the clockworkmod folder and rename the update.zip for this recovery to the same after i copied it into the clockwork mod folder. Now Rom Manager boots to the red recovery when you select reboot to recovery. Haven't tried to flash anything from Rom Manager with it yet, but thought I'd throw this out there.

Thanks again man.

Edit: Just flashed a couple things, and it seems to work fine like this.

I absolutely love being able to point to the file I want to flash from rom manager without having to play in the recovery. It was the only negative thing I found with voodoo, and in hindsight, this may have worked for that as well?
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
Seems to have an issue currently. Upside is I don't see a need for it outside of battery calibration, which shouldnt be an everyday thing anyway. Maybe just wait until you're at a completely full charge and re-wipe and re-flash the rom your using. lol. I'm sure it'll be worked out soon.
[Fascinate Android Development] Kevin Gossett:
Yeah, I see a wipe in my near future
[Fascinate Android Development] DevinLeFevere:
Could someone link a working update zip please.
[Fascinate Android Development] patterson12123:
ive flashed the file both ways, through odin first, then tried to run the update.zip, it says that its un-signed, or signed incorrectly whatever, and ive tried to run the package through rom manager, same, what am i doing wrong here
[Fascinate Android Development] Mydnightsorrow:
There is a update.zip in the new cwm recovery.... Dont do it thread
[Fascinate Android Development] mattstakilla:
Yay! a working cwm again! i fugded mine up after installing dl30, but this brought it back, thanks a bunch
[Fascinate Android Development] ChadZ:
How do I install this? I have no idea what odin is so obviously I'm not using it.

I downloaded the dl30 rom and cwm from this thread.

What do I do now?
[Fascinate Android Development] slvrevoix:
Lol you newbs are silly. There is a sticky roll up thread that will help you figure out 90% of what you need to know about flashing roms.

On the other hand thanks for this jt now i have a fully functional red cwm that works. I havent donated in a while so they are on their way tonight!
[Fascinate Android Development] Grimis:
Once this recovery is installed, should the recovery boot option take me directly into this RED RECOVERY?
[Fascinate Android Development] Takafiji:
Download the first file from OP and rename it recovery-update.zip put it in the clockworkmod folder on sd card, replacing the old recovery-update.zip.

Download the following file and place it at the root of your sd card, make sure its named update.zip.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17566514/update.zip use it to get into cwm.

Then boot to recovery, (apply update if you get blue writing, choose apply sdcard:update.zip). Once in green cwm choose to "install zip from sd card,"

navigate to your clockworkmod folder then choose the recovery-update.zip file.

Lastly go back to the main options and choose "apply sdcard:update.zip." you should be good to go now!

CWM

should

be red for now on, and

should

say voodoo lagfix.

Enjoy! I hope that clears things up!
[Fascinate Android Development] Grimis:
I have done all of this, including wiping, but it still boots into green recovery and I have to select to go into red recovery. :(
[Fascinate Android Development] Takafiji:
once you get to the green recovery are you doing sd card:update.zip, and did you download OP, in this thread, file. then go to the clockworkmod folder on your sdcard change the file name of your newly downloaded file to recovery-update.zip. place that file in the clockworkmod folder over writing the old one.
[Fascinate Android Development] Grimis:
Deleted file in clockwork mod folder, moved the downloaded file to that folder and renamed it to recovery-update.zip, booted to recovery green, sdcard: update.zip.

EDIT: you have to run the cwm_froyo.zip in recovery, then take that update.zip file from sd card and move IT to clockwork mod folder and rename it to recovery-update.zip ;)

Thanks man. I think I was missing it the way you were saying it and renaming the cwm_froyo.zip file.
[Fascinate Android Development] Takafiji:
Okay just went through the process again. i will edit my mistakes after this post.

anyways once youve booted to green cwm got to install zip file from there navigate to clockworkmod folder, there choose recovery-update.zip, then in green cwm go back and choose sdcard:update.zip. bam! your good to go.

EDIT: My post 4 posts up is fixed, follow those and you should be set man. Sorry i forgot that one step.
[Fascinate Android Development] Grimis:
No problem, thanks for all of your help. fyi I even odin my phone to start completely over lol
[Fascinate Android Development] Daswolven:
The renaming process worked fine for a couple of reboots, then stopped. Now it doesn't, and I'm not sure why.
[Fascinate Android Development] Grimis:
I tried about 10 times already and it still boots to recovery red for me.
[Fascinate Android Development] Takafiji:
I kept getting blue recovery, to fix this i used the odin files, then booted directly to recovery (dont let it boot to android OS). then installed one of adrenylines nonvoodoo kernel. This way the sammy kernel wouldn't be sneaky and remove my cwm.
[Fascinate Android Development] obliviator33:
When I try to boot into CwM recovery I get "failed to verify whole-file signature" and I just am left with the stock recovery screen.
[Fascinate Android Development] quarky42:
This is because ROM Manager uses recovery-update.zip instead of update.zip in the /sdcard/clockworkmod folder.

I moved the old recovery-update.zip file out of there and put another copy of the new update.zip in there but I had named it recovery-update.zip

When you boot into ClockWorkMod with ROM Manager, now it will boot the same version.

ROM Manager had no problems booting the new red Froyo CWM in this manner.

Edit: I see this was addressed in a later post. I just hadn't made it that far in the thread. My bad.
