My little guide to get cwm 6 on our phone without a computer

1. Download bladyle's cwm zip here: http://minus.com/llBzrGFd15YuQ

2. Extract "recovery_6001.img" then rename the extracted .img "recovery.img"

3. Download recovery manager: http://www.modaco.co...?/topic/329772-[APP]-Recovery-Manager-v0.36-[BETA]  (copy the whole link, not just the blue link) then install the apk on your phone

4. Open the app then click on the recovery tab

5. Click on "install recovery" and select the recovery.img that you extracted

6. Click on reboot recovery then enjoy

I've done... and now if i try to go in recovery i get fastboot mode

are you sure your pressing vol up, focus and power buttons? If so, try a few more times. If that doesn't work, just install it the proper way

yes and i've also tried "reboot recovery" from titanium backup and from recovery manager...

[Mtman1]

Just install the normal way then. It worked for me...

Two questions
1) what's the blobs folder in the clockworkmod folder on the sd card?
2) apparently it's possible to delete cwm backups with 6.x.x.x, is it possible and how do you do it?

PS both my guide and the proper method worked for me

[franzo87]

I like it... the big problem is it don't see the ext4 partition...I'm thinking if coming back to cmw 5 who have made the support for sd-ext for cmw 5?

he big problem is it don't see the ext4 partition.

Maybe it's about incompleteness of my source.. it doesn't have ext4 line in recovery.fstab
add that

/sd-ext          ext4           /dev/block/mmcblk0p2      /dev/block/mmcblk0
and generate again

I think the "blobs" folder is ".android_secure"

@Lens_flare

W:Unable to get recovery.fstab info for /datadata during fstab generation!
W:Unable to get recovery.fstab info for /emmc during fstab generation!
W:Unable to get recovery.fstab info for /sd-ext during fstab generation!

i will add the line for sd-ext but isn't that way support only ext4 and no ext3? and what about first and second warning ?

Koush assumes ALL devices in his damned imaginaerum DO have those partitions.

ext4 as I know compatible with older ones. e2fsck is the evidence.

[bladyle]

OK
Generated new img 6.0.1.0 version. Should be supportig ext4 partitons now.

[Mtman1]

What.... I just flashed 6.0.0.1 thanks, trying now

[Mtman1]

Two things,
1) thank you  sooo much bladyle for this
2) with my guide, you have to rename the recovery as recovery.img or you will end up in fastboot mode

I thought fastboot might flash anything and it not discriminate you passed "recovery.img" or "brickmysystemplease"(I point: without any extension).

[Mtman1]

I know it seems weird, but when I didn't rename it, it always went to fastboot. But when it was called recovery.img it always worked....

[bladyle]

yes it must renamed recovery.img first and then flash it via fasboot or other methods

if you didn't rename it program is searching for recovery.img and if didn't find it can't flash it

otherwise i think it can be flashed in fastboot with other name but you need to specify the full path and name

soo, if I name it "pleasebrickmysystem" and type then:

fastboot -i 0x0502 flash recovery pleasebrickmysystem
fastboot -i 0x0502 reboot

it won't boot recovery then?
WTF...you definitely are doing something wrong.

yes, but I wasn't using the program, I was using recovery manager which searches for .imgs. if I didn't rename the file, it would end up in fastboot mode, but when I did rename it, it worked fine....
Anyway, this thread is confusing me
