Report here any issues you may have.

I have gingerbread 2.3.5 installed on an Acer Liquid Metal.    Recovery MT-2.2 hangs after the 3 coloured squares appear saying wait, windows slow..  well, after 30 minutes and still nothing my guess is, it is not going to work.    So, I tried getting Version 2.0 from the link but this produces an error of "invalid download link"   :-(         Could we have a new link please....

[TechnoLover]

3 coloured squars? are you really in recovery or in fastboot mode?


are you sure, you have installed Recovery or do you want to install recovery?

No, this is for the Acer Liquid Metal only. You need to find the appropriate forum for your device. I'd suggest looking on XDA or Samdroid.

[sambartle]

Anyone tried 3.0 yet?

Any news about what's updated/new?

Yup, working fine so far.

It's ClockworkMod so it works with ROM Manager which makes Nandroid's a bit simpler to do.

It doesnt work for me..

The installation of OS_Acer_4.000.13.EMEA.GEN1_A23G_LiquidMT (official) and RecoveryMT-3.0
went fine. Till i tried to install a custom rom.
When i'm trying to open recovery via the key combo i'll get an android standing in a triangle with a
exclamation point, also tried opening recovery via quickboot. But the app closes when i hit recovery.

Anyone knows what went wrong?

Already reinstalled both the os and recovery and did a wipe via the os itselfe (including sd card)

[astuermer]

I did a nandroid backup with v3.0 but...
It's over 1 GB in size!!!

android_secure.img 420mb
android.img 448mb
boot.img 5mb
cache.img 0mb
data.img 117mb
nandroid.md5 0mb
recovery.img 5mb
system.img 164mb

these files are stored after a backup in CWM in clockworkmod/backup/2011-11-04
I have a 16 gb microsd, fat32 formatted, no ext or so.

any idea?

That symbol is standard android recovery symbol, probably cwm isn't installed at all

[SybNl]

During the installation it said that it was all "okay" or something..
But suppose that it isnt installed at all, how can i install it properly?
I mean, you can't do anything more that starting the install_recovery
right?

EDIT
Also tried to reinstall the acer driver but withouth anny positive effect.
Some more info:
When i do the key combo, it looks like it wants to start (unzipping the box figure)
but then i get the android standing next to a triangle figure and i'm stuck (need to remove the battery)


Anyone?

I can see it's backed up Android_Secure which is there all your apps that are on the SD Card go.

Although, I'm not sure what Android.img is.

I have this issue too.

Whats wrong with key combo?

How do you root it without enter recovery to install superuser? Shell needs root to restart into recovery right?

Many thanks, Vache.
Wish you all the best!

"adb reboot recovery" needs no root


EDIT: use Volume Up + Focus + Power On, release and press focus again after vibrate => this works for me

EDIT2: Recovery doesn't wipe SD-Ext
EDIT3: Recovery doesn't backup SD-Ext
