Unfortunately this is not possible, RM cannot auto-magically detect which version is installed in the nand. It only reads of the the sdcard of which version is installed. and even that is a text file, which can still be changed manually if anyone wants to

btw, I have requested the latest version to be added to RM, hopefully will be visible in a day or 2
[HD2 Android NAND Development] arif-ali:
Hey guys,

I have added the CWM as a rom in RM, and will start adding the previous ones on as well

Enjoy!!!!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MarkAtHome:
Good to hear. Thanks, Arif.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] 10507:
What is wrong? When running cLK at phone bootup, the screen always stop at suspend. Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks
[HD2 Android NAND Development] :
When I try to install the zip via cwm i get following output:

E: Error in blabla..leo_CWR.zip

(Status 6)

Installation aborted.

edit: tried the zip from the OP..this installs fine. maybe the file in rm is corrupted?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] arif-ali:
What time did you do this, the zip in the early stages yesterday had issues. If you remove it from /sdcard/clockworkmod/downloads/cyanogenmod.arif-ali.co.uk/recoveries, and then retry doing RM, it should work.

I tested this a few times yesterday
[HD2 Android NAND Development] :
Ive tried it 2hours ago...

Will dl it again now from rm and will report back if it works now.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] :
Edit: cleaned my clockworkmod download folder, downloaded again...same error message.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] arif-ali:
OK, I will have a look at it, and see what the problem is, will get back to you soon

EDIT: The CWR has been updated in RM
[HD2 Android NAND Development] :
...works now (:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] OmerIRMAK:
where can I find cmwr 4.0.1.4 with yes/no for cLK. thanks.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] arif-ali:
3 places

* OP

* ROM Manager

* link in my signature which is built every night
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kwbr:
Thanks arif-ali, v4.0.1.4 is topnotch. Running smooth.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] 10507:
Eventhough I have already updated CWR to version 4.0.1.4, Rom Manager still shows that I have version 3.1.0.0. Is this a bug in Rom Manager?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] :
/sdcard/clockworkmod/.settings

edit the version number to yours, then go to settings-applications-manange-all and choose rom manager and delete data
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
nope, not a bug; a feature :) you can change this by yourself with editing /sdcard/clockworkmod/.settings file. just edit it corresponding to your version you are using and delete data and cache of tom manager in app manager.

yep, jan was faster :D
[HD2 Android NAND Development] arif-ali:
I will test a new 4.0.1.4, so that we can get this automatically to be added.

I will be posting a few of these in the next few days, for people to test so that we don't have to do it manually

Edit: check this one out, and see if it does anything

http://cyanogenmod.arif-ali.co.uk/recoveries/recovery_4.0.1.4_CWR_test1.zip

Edit 2:

just tested this a few times, after several attempts, and this is now working. The only drawback is that when you start RM afterwards, you have to press OK on 2 dialogue boxes, as it fixes up the DB of it, but otherwise it is working
[HD2 Android NAND Development] kaiserlein:
Yep it works :-)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] liquidx:
So the new stable version is 4.0.1.4 and no more 3.2.0.0, right?

What are the added features in the new version that 3.2.0.0 not have?

Do I really need to update to 4.0.1.4?:confused:

Please help
[HD2 Android NAND Development] siddharth singh:
Thankyou arif!!! It is working correctly... And shows up in rom manager!!!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
nope, no upgrade needed, same functions available; at least for hd2 ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] clio94:
With 4.0.14 recovery can you manage sd-ext partition; I cannot even wipe it
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
this was possible in my test sessions; how did you create your partition layout?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] clio94:
I create it with cwm 3.0.25.i didn't try any previous test versions

[HD2 Android NAND Development] ChitownWingMan:
HD2, Android on SD, MAGLDR, Windows Mobile 7 and ClockWorkMod

Please forgive me but I am cross posting this here because I have not gotten a response to this question for about two weeks now. I figure it's because I cannot get it under the eyes of the correct person.

Setup:

HD2 T-Mobile USA (1GB)

magldr 1.13

Windows Mobile 7 in NAND

Android on SD

Problem:

I am trying run ClockWorkMod. I installed ClockWorkMod with Rom Manager 4.1.0.0 (cooked in to my MccMBoxmaX Android) and 4.3.3.0 (download from market place).

However, when I boot into magldr (holding the power on button) and I select "AD Recovery" magldr says "No Boot Source".

Question:

Is there any way to run ClockWorkMod from this configuration? If so, how?

Many packages (like kernels) use ClockWorkMod to install them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
you cannot use cwm if you're using wp7 with a sd build environment; not only due to wp7 partition layout, but also because of not being able to 'flash' sth into an android sd build :(

wp7 partitions differs completely from android partitions. you can install sdcard recovery version, but it won't be able to flash sth into sd android builds because of cwm searching for corresponding partitions in nand, and not sd. this would require some major changes to cwm :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ChitownWingMan:
Thanks for the quick answer.

Forgive me what is STH?

Also, do you know of any program similar to clockworkmod that works for SD booting Android ports that allows installation from SD zip files? Many distributions (like kernels) are distributed in this form.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
sry, sth is "my personal shortcut" for "something" :D

kernels for sd builds need to be modified in a special way, you cannot use a nand kernel for a sd build :( part 1; part 2 is, that there is no way to flash sth the usual way with cwm, unfortunately. i believe, sd builds have their own update method, maybe simply copying e.g. kernel or files into corresponding folder...?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] siddharth singh:
You can use any kernel for a sod build just have to copy
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
really...? k, didn't know this :D thx ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ChitownWingMan:
Can I actually overwrite the kernel files while Android is up and running? When the SD card is in a reader on my pc I don't have access to the system.ext2 pseudo partition.

I can try to find a program that will let me mount an ext2 file as a pseudo drive on Windows but is their an easier way?

Thank you.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] uzi2:
It's not quite that simple. You have to copy the relative .ko files as well as the zimage file.

Do not overwrite files while Android is running. This is like sawing off a branch while you're sitting on it.

Reboot into Winmo or use a cardreader.

Copy the zimage file to your android folder.

create a folder root\system\lib\modules within your android folder and copy all the .ko files there.

Reboot into android and enjoy your new kernel.

Edit: A nand kernel is fine with an SD build as long as you don't have an android build in nand.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ChitownWingMan:
Thank you, thank you, thank you

You are the first person in over two weeks of searching for an answer that was able to help me!!!

Yeah Team. The thanks button was pressed. If you ever come to Chicago, the pints are on me!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] siddharth singh:
The kernel part of the Rom get loaded into the ramcso you. Won't be actually sawing off :D... Until you restart
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dermann:
ok... I just downloaded the source here. I think it's the latest one. I have the program Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2, is this the program to use and compile this into a img file? if so, I get errors. could someone tell me what program to use and if I need to use a different PC OS. using W7.

thanks for all the work that's gone into this. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
oops, here was BS written; we're not on clk thread :D

for compiling recovery you need more than only the sources of cwm only. you need to get the complete cm7 tree, which is over 7gig in size :( and that's not possible atm, because there are protocol errors; they're switched off on github side so it's not possible to sync via git and https :(

and the source is located here: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_bootable_recovery ; but even this one isn't latest :( we're at 5.x.x.x in the meantime, but it isn't updated.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] goldlocke:
btw, I am using nightly builds of 4.0.1.5 on MAGDLR. No bugs encountered yet.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dermann:
Ah ok, thanks for letting me know. The main reason for me wanting to play with this in the first place, was so I could change the text color in the ui.c, to blue, green, yellow, ect... To personalize it, just for giggles.

Please don't take offense, I don't mean or want to belittle the fantastic work your doing. Just to customize it to look like the rest of the tweaks I've implemented in the rom I'm using.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] GroteBozewolf:
Is there a more recent version of CWM that has working progressbars on restore? I tried the 4.0.1.5 version, but it has the same issue: progressbar shows, but no animation. I did make sure that I did not enable Fast Restore in RM so that is not the issue.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
with which flashable zip did you try it? maybe the progressbar stuff has to be included in updater-script.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] GroteBozewolf:
No zip, just restore of sd-ext after backup.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
can you try "enable quick backup and restore" in rom manager for testing, pls? some time ago i found that this is causing the opposite effect: the progress bar and filenames were shown with this option enabled.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MarkAtHome:
Is there a benefit to using one of the five available releases (CWR, IMG, SD, etc.) over another, is is it simply personal preference?

If I were to choose the current daily, I have only the IMG version, yes?

___________
[HD2 Android NAND Development] GroteBozewolf:
I will give it a try tomorrow.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] thecrater:
@seadersn

Would this work with GPC's puregingerbread. I've tried it with his latest release 2.0f on 120mb partition and while everything seems ok at first after I flash the ROM and reboot I keep getting fc's for everything.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
i don't believe that this is recovery related...? have you ran a "fix_permissions"? maybe this is sufficient; if not, recall :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
regarding 3.0.0.5: just delete the recovery-raw.img in the MAGLDR folder and copy over the one i've supplied in first post, then flash. if this isn't sufficient, try a complete wipe (task29) and redo :-)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hessamx:
no every thing is ok but still 3.0.0.5
[HD2 Android NAND Development] 4D3:
Done this, I used MTTY to task 29, reflashed MAGLDR, redownloaded Recovery_150 from the raider thread, i have this for flash.cfg:

misc ya 1M
recovery rrecov|ro|nospr filesize recovery-raw.img
boot yboot|ro 5M
system ya 150M
cache ya 4M
userdata ya|asize|hr allsize

replaced the img with the img you supply in the first post, ran the DAF.exe as admin and flashed through USB Flasher mode....

STILL GOT 3.0.0.5!!!! (Are you sure you have released the right thing bacause i have 100% failure rate as do other people in this thread)

Also how is it possible to be flashing 3.0.0.5 when you "aparently" released 3.0.1.4.....the only thing that can be wrong here is your img file!!!

can someone post a WORKING 150mb recovery that we can all use instead of messing about building it up from various files on multiple threads!!!

MG
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hessamx:
actualy i have freezing problem that is

phone freeze at the first startup logo(android) i try 150,400 mb partition and ClockWorkMode 3.0.0.5 but still freeze ,i try to change my clockworkmode to 3.0.1.4 to solving my problem,

for installing the typhoon rom.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
@ mysticgenius: i've doublechecked this image (erased recovery partition, tried to boot it -> don't work, so it was definitively deleted, flashed it again in fastboot mode, rebooted in recovery -> works, displays 3.0.1.4).

you have magldr 1.13 or cLK? you have actual radio? you have hspl3/4 -> 2.08.hspl (not 2.08.0000)? this image is as what it is announced. sry :) then it could be that this is partly incompatible with magldr, in some configurations. with cLK and fastboot it works, and most of other peoples stated that it works with magldr, too. so, check yor config, pls. would be interesting what causes this.

for typhoon rom you need a special kernel if you're using clk.

@ all: please tell, which loader you are using when you're trying to flash this (and it does not work).
[HD2 Android NAND Development] thecrater:
Many thanks. that fixed it. loving your work
[HD2 Android NAND Development] 4D3:
I disagree...I wrote the guide for MTTY, i am FULLY aware of how to erase my device completely, i have done the same thing as you and it says 3.0.0.5............this CANNOT happen if you image is 3.0.1.4...

MAGLDR 1.13

Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14

HSPL 3 (there is not HSPL 4 for the HD2)

i wouldnt say incompatible, it simply doesnt work!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] ClydeB1:
One little correction ;) - HSPL4
[HD2 Android NAND Development] af974:
Just wondering, do you know guys that for new CWM (from 3.0.0.5)you should hit "8. AD Recovery" in MAGLDR ........dont you?

Edit: I would try to flash a WM 6.5 rom, Magldr and CWM, sometimes task 29 did not solve the problem as it did with me a couple of times.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] clyder:
Dont you think that you are out of line a little...If it does work for someone than stating that it doesnt work at all because you have a problem is a little wrong...

Also busting someones ass who is trying to help us all is not very helpfull...

Obviously that something is happening in your case (and others with the problem) that is causing this issue.... Lets calm down and cooperate to locate the source of the problem.

I also have Magldr 1.13 but still havent found the time to test this, but I will try it maybe tommorow.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] WarlockW:
I agree .. I have Magldr 1.13 and It Installed Just fine ..

All I did was ..

DL The File .. Renamed it to: recovery-raw.img

Used this config ..

misc ya 1M

recovery rrecov|ro|nospr filesize recovery-raw.img

boot yboot|ro 10M

system ya 430M

cache ya 10M

userdata ya|asize|hr allsize

Started Magldr .. HOLD POWER - DO NOT LET GO ..

Connect USB Cord ..

Goto Option 5 - USB Flasher

And Ran DAF.exe - Installed fine!

Sooo .. If your having problems its probably something your doing .. or your USB

connection / drivers ..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Lozone:
MysticGenius,

Please try this.

This is exactly what I used.

Hope it helps.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
even someone who is writing guides or is a programmer or... sometimes makes mistakes :) don't take this wrong: it's human native behaviour. without that we would be robots or sth else.

but this is very strange. try to redownload all the files you need to flash and start from beginning, this time using the usual way? maybe there were files dislocated accidentally or sth else?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] hessamx:
first i ran task29

then Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14

then MAGLDR113_DAF

then Recovery_150M_3014

misc ya 1M
recovery rrecov|ro|nospr filesize recovery-raw.img
boot yboot|ro 5M
system ya 150M
cache ya 44M
userdata ya|asize|hr allsize

BUT STILL 3.0.0.5 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:mad::mad::mad:

but now when i use 8.ad recovery it's okaY !!!

thanX af947
[HD2 Android NAND Development] af974:
Yeah, i made the same error when i went from old cwm to 3.0.0.5 lol
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Life Engineer:
Youppyyyyy!

Thanks seadersn!

It worked with MAGLDR 1.11!

I simply copied zimage and initrd and replaced old ones!

It now shows 3.0.1.4 and i've tried it with cash wiping only! (not yet with backups or restores but it loads properly)!

Thanks!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
k, then i can post this in the first post :) thx for feedback!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] 4D3:
Thanks for that my man!! hows life?

(although for people wanting to run MAGLDR it is a pointless upgrade surely as we need HSPL 2.08 to run MAGLDR!?)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] tyrone1:
How do I install this?? I use magdlr and followed the directions I currently have CWM Recover 3.0.0.5 installed..

i try to install the new 4.0.1.4 within CWM recovery and it gets an error and ends up messing up CWM 3.0.0.5

says "Writing recovery partition....

assert failed: write_raw_image ("/tmp/recovery.img", "recovery")

E:error in /sdcard/recovery_4.0.1.4_leo_CWR.zip (Status 7)

instalation aborted"

Anyone please????? Any ideas??? Thanks in advance
[HD2 Android NAND Development] GroteBozewolf:
That fixed it! Thanks.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
strange thing, ... but ok :)

tyrone, you found it what it was? you need a fixed boot partition size of 5mb to be on the sure side regarding future updates of cwr. means: backup current rom with sd cwr files copied over to your sdcard and boot it via "ad sd", reflash partition layout with edited flash.cfg for

recovery rrecov|ro|nospr 5M recovery.img

and not

boot yboot|ro filesizerecovery rrecov|ro|nospr filesize recovery.img

and restore backup; then flash the cwr of your choice and do a backup again (just to be on the sure side for future restores of your current rom with new recovery). reboot and enjoy :)

Format /System /DATA etc with EXT4

I'm wondering if the current version of CWM 4.0.1.4 has the ability to Format the system partition with a file system other then yasfs2. For example EXT4.

What would the command be in the install script?

I know it is possible on the Desire HD ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=868720 )

dorimanx is currently looking in to this with is part of the reason I'm asking.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Karcus:
He is getting the error when flashing via CWR method. I tried it also and same error. He is on a lower version.

The flash.cfg file you are referring to does not exist in the file he downloaded from the main page.

I tried changing the flash.cfg but it does not help. I am stuck also. Unless I have to change the "boot yboot "section even though you said "and not"?

There is a new text color :)

I did a small test and so far:

-reboot to recovery works

-full backup works

-usb storage works

-wipe data/cache/dalvik works

-show log works

-reboot recovery works

-restore has a bug with sd-ext. Error sd-ext.img not found. But this recovery is saving sd-ext to tar format and not img. This is with full restore and only sdext restore. I am currently restoring sd-ext from a previous backup.

Also now progress bar in backup/restore is working as well as the listing of the files that are being processed.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:

Yeah, I just saw that in your comments, will have to investigate
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seadersn:
it's device dependent now, so unfortunately no solution suitable for all is usable atm :( just let it flash w/o anything other changes wouls be the best way i believe :)

with 5.0.2.3, when backing up rom, it says ROMs backed up but when i go to restore it checks md5 sum for about a minute. Then it says image file not found restore complete lol
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MarkAtHome:
Uninstall App Option?

Has anyone considered adding a feature to CWR that enables you to uninstall an app-gone-wrong that was installed?

Sure would be helpful about now. System has been rock-solid with TyphooN's latest CM7.

I upgraded Chainfire 3D (no problem) app, and for the first time chose to install his optional (experimental) EGL driver. Big mistake. Boot loops galore.

Sure would be helpful if I could boot to recovery, and choose to uninstall the app. :(
[HD2 Android NAND Development] seanyuan62:
Is it possible to have a custom themed version of CWM? Just curious-i see different looking recoveries around xda

nice color i like it.. :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] dermann:
Yes, I agree. This matches the theme of my phone nicely.

Thank you! :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] arif-ali:
The only way possible here is to use adb while in recovery and remove the app using this method. There is no other way at the moment. But I think it is a good feature to have.

yes, it's possible, but changes in the code are required for that
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Rick_1995:
instead, you could try and port this.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MarkAtHome:
Can adb be used in recovery, or were you just thinking out loud as to how it might take place?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] clyder:
adb can be used in recovery. But the partitions you need to use must be mounted in recovery options.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] MarkAtHome:
My initial response was something like "gotcha", until I realized that I have never even worked with adb... who am I kidding? I am clueless, but will work on that. ;-) Thanks, Clyder.
