i remember backup comment .android_secure was comment (but not sure if that was last comment). Maybe also cache was commented running V.1.5 backup. For sure there was no error message at the end.

There is a problem with sdcard storage so .android_secure won't be backed up either. Can't mount USB_STORAGE either.

I'm working on it, will edit my previous posts.

Yeah, it can't find some things that aren't there, it's not impossible to fix though.

The source that is open can be found on CWM's github, the touch parts are not open though.

The kernel sources are from Konstats Github for 6.0.1.1 and TG's github for later versions.

No, the combination of kernel and recovery makes it unsafe so it's turned off.

The touch bits are not open sourced. You can solve that by using touch from team win recovery but you need to compile it with a graphics.c for the blade.

As soon as i'm done with the chainloader i'll release all of the stuff i've used that does work. At this point in time 6.0.1.5+ doesn't work because almost all of the code needs to be rewritten for the blade jb kernel.

It would be damn near impossible to use most of it as it is, this is work in progress.

Thanks to:

Koush for the original recovery.
KonstaT for the kernel sources (http://www.modaco.co...s7-android-235/)
tOmm13b for the suggestion to remove FTM mode to fix HW keys.

Testing version 6.0.1.5:

FOR TESTING PURPOSES ONLY!

It will not backup properly and usb storage doesn't work.


I've tested everything on it without any hickups, problems with previous versions (6.0.1.2 6.0.1.3 6.0.1.4) backup and sometimes hangups is solved in this one.

It includes a new menu item named "install zip from sideload" which can be used for installing a zip from your computer using "adb sideload 'path/to/zip'". It requires a newer adb, version 1.0.29 or higher.

I've downloaded recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.1-touch-blade-Snap.IT-20120830.img and flashed it through 5.x.x.x recovery on OSF2 UK ver. This now shows the green android and doesn't loads nor getting into recovery...What went wrong? How do I get back or flash another recovery version?
BTW MD5 checked and is ok.

It seems, you have flashed wrong version.

XXX.img  files are for flashing by fastboot method
And XXX.zip files are for flashing from recovery like CWM.

You can see that in the link below. "flashable via recovery".

Now boot into OS install 5.x.x.x CWM from ROM Manager, boot into recovery and flash .zip file.

Why would you use a recovery made for the blade on a crescent?

Use one that is made for your phone.

can anyone remember how to turn on "fast mode", you know without the verbose progress indicators (showing each file being backed up)?

also there was a backup type setting somewhere - old tarball or new rsync/diff kind of method.

If you didn't use ROM Manager to disable it it should be enabled by default, if you did just fastboot flash it again to erase settings.

The version of backup is set under "backup/restore".

If  you can hold on to tomorrow i'll post my 6.0.2.3 then with sideband loading as well as everything else working well. (with fast mode enabled for everything but sd-ext simply because i wanted to review how it was behaving)

Full backups are now accomplished in under two minutes with 1.5GB of data on a separate partition (use this option with care if you're running multiple loop roms, if you restore it for one it will be restored for ALL).

cheers. i found i had to touch /sdcard/clockworkmod/.hidenandroidprogress to get rid of the progressbar, and yeah i found the tar option which seems to just echo 'tar' > /sdcard/clockworkmod/.default_backup_format

looking forward to 6023, as i went back to 6012 after having problems with 6015. i tried konstat's 6014 but without touch it seems very pedestrian and my volume keys are a bit iffy these days and produce double-clicks sometimes.

p.s. sorry if i upset you on the 421 thread, i didn't mean to sound ungrateful to konstat, i guess i may have. no more posting after 2 bottles of bubbly.
