Guest chicknlil Posted April 23, 2011 Report Posted April 23, 2011 Is there a workaround to the "jump 2 spots" when in recovery mode? I can't seem to ever get it to land on backup and restore, and I'd like to nandroid this before I play further...
Guest chicknlil Posted April 24, 2011 Report Posted April 24, 2011 Is there a workaround to the "jump 2 spots" when in recovery mode? I can't seem to ever get it to land on backup and restore, and I'd like to nandroid this before I play further... So for anyone else looking for the answer to this, it's holding down the volume keys, and then pressing power (instead of releasing the volume). A bit ugly, but it works.
Guest ham77 Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 I flashed the clockworkmod recovery v2.5.1.2 manually using adb shell. Now I'm stuck at the green recovery menu, can't navigate with the volume keys. Can anyone shed some light? Please... :mellow:

Guest ham77 Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 if you're having the issue I described, then I provided the answer in the post directly above yours. Thanks for the reply. Sadly, no. The cursor does not move at all, no matter which volume button or how hard/long I press it... When I press the power button or the (touch) Home button, the screen went blank and come back again if I do it again. I'm literally stuck at the green menu. The only thing I can do is reset it, but the same thing comes up again. If I do the 2x volume button reset, I get the default blue recovery menu (with android background), which I CAN navigate around. Any clues?

Hi, I have been trying to root my device (Olivepad VT100) but am facing quite some issues due to which I cannot reach this step of flashing roms. If you don't mind, could you help me here: After trying to root using superoneclick, though the initial message after running rageagainstthecage says rooted, it failed to copy su, busybox etc on to the system... due to this the rooting failed. On further investigation, I have noticed that the OS partition of my system has only 32kb space remaining. Is this normal? What should I do here :-( Help... Finally, is there any way I can force reboot my system to flash to the rom backup I made, using any means? (i.e. pc adb etc) Is there any way I can force the system folders in? Note: I am moderately comfortable with Linux shell commands and terminology, Just in case I need to get my hands dirty, I'd be more than happy to (been long since I used Linux, and I am not proud of that fact :-( ) Hope you can help Regards Ben
