malezRecovery image 0.6.2 + easy installer

[Guest vikings123]

Malez,

I am in a very situation when I tried ti restore from previous backup.

The restoration process seems to run forever. I have tried 4 different recoveries, all created by Recovery 0.6

===================

Baseband is from 2.100.19.

Malez Recovery 0.6.

[Guest akira.pwr]

After reflashed the bin and installed latest recovery, I've done a nandroid, then I've flashed a custom rom (adamemjay) and revert to stock,then I've flashed another custom (Alan090v2), now nandroid don't works.

Recovery tells to do it via console and ask me if I have enough space in sd card. I have a lot of space.

Can be custom rom do something wrong on recovery/system?

I am pretty sure it is custom rom, but what ?

Many LS users have same issue and stock not.

Can't boot into Recovery Mode...shut down my phone, then hit the Volume + Camera + Power Button but i only get two vibrations and then nothing. Had installed the newest malez recovery and the installer told me that everything was fine.

Recovery did its job well. That a rom bug

Malez,

You are right, nothing is wrong in Malez 0.6, but there is a big BUT, wait. In fact, only after installing noxwell's only modified boot imagemboot.zip to mount sd's ext to /system/sd on this froyo leak, apps2sd works properly. It was actually your perequisite for rom makers always mount sd's ext to /system/sd, and that's why apps2sd won't work in froyo stock because ext2 was not yet mounted.

(On the side, Nandroid and even Nandroid + ext2 backup and restore work perfectly. Giving no error, and i'm not even deleting any cache.)

The big BUT is on dalvik to sd, the results were /data/dalvik-cache/*.dex remained, so no symlink, and only /system/sd/dalvik-cache directory was created. I cannot give you proper recovery log but:

Move apps and dalvik to SD

Press HOME to confirm,

any other key to abort.

Moving : /sbin/um: line 3: can't create /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file: nonexistent directry

.Dalvik

As far as I can see, on this froyo leak, the bug, is that on recovery you don't have access to the filesystem you need.

P.S.

For ROM makers for them not to be in the same trap as noxwell's Apps2SD on Froyo. In his ROM, the ext2 of my 16GB class 2 sd mounts perfectly on boot. Howerver, my new 8GB class 6's ext2 does not mount on boot. They are formatted the same way in Malez 0.6, and ext2 of 8GB could only be mounted manually.

I have said my peace thanks.

So your are just telling that there is not issue with backup / restore, and that apps2sd works well if rom maker know how to do it. :lol:

/data/dalvik cache is not a symlink for compatibility issue. When it is a symlink there is potential issues (bootloop)

I have just checked my code : /data/dalvik-cache is empty at end of run. So a real log should be usefull to see why you directory was not empty.

Your data and apps-private were links, right ?

At the first post of this thread, it is written in bold that /system/sd must be mounted on boot for apps2sd to work.

If you are talking of

"can't create /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file:" that is no an error : that is normal.

I got it :) :( Come on, of course. I was commenting how dalvik-cache was not push on ext, now you told me. :) Thanks for all your time and trouble.

I am just sad to see that you are laughing of your own ignorance and, despite my answer to try to explain you some technical things, your keep on your wrong positions. Dalvik cache files do not need to be moved on sd, they are deleted and will be recreated on sd on first boot. I won't lose more time explaining as you even don't concider my answer, or respect me. Stay in ignorance

I apologize man for the misinterpretation. I completely acknowledge there are compatibility issues concerning dalvik-cache puting sd, so, I accept that. I was laughing at what i thought you pointed out, that when I complained that under recovery you may not have access to the entire filesystem, while restore/back-up in RECOVERY has access to filesystem and then some. Sorry man I'm not really great at posting, just having fun at myself.

[Guest sunshine333]

quick clarification:

So the issue some of us have been having with modified 2.2 roms trying to do a nandroid backup and getting an error (several logs similar to mine have been posted here) is an issue with the design of the custom rom itself, and not Malez Recovery, correct? The only solution will be to wait for updated versions or new roms that have fixed this issue? Or is there a workaround currently used by others here?

[Guest andrew2511]

@Malez, I wrote that this workaround works to have a nandroid backup, do you confirm that a nandroid done after wipe of the cache it's fully working? thx, you're the man

i found a "work-around" method to make a nandroid backup if Dumping cache to /sdcard/nandroid/recovery/BCDMRS-xxxxx/cache.img...Aborted

go in recovery and wipe dalvik cache and cache. so the nandroid will be successful :lol:

[Guest PhilNelwyn]

wipe cache and retry

[Guest akira.pwr]

YYEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!

Finally I have done a nandroid backup! I've wiped cache from recovery and it works!

I have a Alan090 v2 custom rom, if someone else can confirm it works, I'll be happy. :lol:

[Guest plocri]

guys, I made my partition via recoveryMalez (128 swap and 1024 mb for apps). It works, but I can't see or use the remain space (circa 6 gb, it's a 8 gb sd card)... What should I do?

[Guest Alvan Yap]

hi malez, i'm new here, thanks for the effort on the malezrecovery image, i would like to ask is it compatible with liquid E ferrari edition?

and i saw the first page there is an option data to sd, is it something like the data to nand/SD in Galaxy S which can boost system performance?thanks for the advice :lol:

Noone provided me a boot.img for Liquid Ferrari, so i was not yes able to produce the corresponding recovery image. Data to sd is a way to store your data on your sdcard, so you can have more space to stored data. Instead of storing them in you phone's internal memory, they are stored on you sdcard. So you can install more apps.

how to extract out the boot.img?perhaps i can extract out mine :lol:

i though the datat to sd is like the galaxy S which can boost performance :)
