Guest Mtman1 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) 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.com/index.php?/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 :D Edited July 19, 2012 by Mtman1
Guest bladyle Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 hm 6001 is not flashable at my device... maybe its to old, containing a different chip? MFG Date Dec, 2010 what error you see? i see in forum that there is GEN1, GEN2 or GEN3 phones...for now i don't know what is the difference from this or how to view witch version is your device but maybe they using different size partitions and that is why you can't flash it .. try different method to be sure too
Guest !gm Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) sending 'recovery' (5068 KB)... OKAY writing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: flash write failure) the other recoverys are smaller how do I check the partitions of the flash memory? (I hate those situations, nothing documented :( ) Edit: thx Mtman1 but this will not work, if the sizes don't fit ^_^ beside that fastboot is really generic Edited July 19, 2012 by !gm

Guest !gm Posted July 19, 2012 Report Posted July 19, 2012 I just do it the way, I flash the other recovery-images ... this time with additional wait-time(...?) and nothing again...
Guest Lens_flare Posted July 20, 2012 Report Posted July 20, 2012 how do I check the partitions of the flash memory? Type "mount"
Guest !gm Posted July 20, 2012 Report Posted July 20, 2012 nah not that easy :blink: which one is the recovery partition?????
Guest Lens_flare Posted July 20, 2012 Report Posted July 20, 2012 which one is the recovery partition? consult also with cat proc/mtd
Guest !gm Posted July 20, 2012 Report Posted July 20, 2012 cat proc/mtd thats, what I needed!!!! thx cat proc/mtd dev: size erasesize name mtd0: 00500000 00040000 "boot" mtd1: 0c640000 00040000 "system" mtd2: 00500000 00040000 "recovery" mtd3: 00080000 00040000 "setupdata" mtd4: 00100000 00040000 "misc" mtd5: 00100000 00040000 "kpanic" mtd6: 03b00000 00040000 "cache" mtd7: 00200000 00040000 "flex" mtd8: 0b900000 00040000 "userdata"

Guest Mtman1 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) 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 Edited July 21, 2012 by Mtman1
Guest franzo87 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 are you sure your pressing vol up, focus and power buttons? yes and i've also tried "reboot recovery" from titanium backup and from recovery manager...
Guest Mtman1 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 Just install the normal way then. It worked for me...
Guest franzo87 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 Just install the normal way then. It worked for me... done!! it worked for me tooo :) thanks
Guest Mtman1 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 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
Guest franzo87 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 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? :D
Guest Lens_flare Posted July 22, 2012 Report Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) 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 Edited July 22, 2012 by Lens_flare
Guest bladyle Posted July 22, 2012 Report Posted July 22, 2012 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 ?
Guest Lens_flare Posted July 22, 2012 Report Posted July 22, 2012 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! Koush assumes ALL devices in his damned imaginaerum DO have those partitions. i will add the line for sd-ext but isn't that way support only ext4 and no ext3? ext4 as I know compatible with older ones. e2fsck is the evidence.
Guest bladyle Posted July 22, 2012 Report Posted July 22, 2012 OK Generated new img 6.0.1.0 version. Should be supportig ext4 partitons now. http://minus.com/lbirLjciFOgzfC
Guest Mtman1 Posted July 22, 2012 Report Posted July 22, 2012 What.... I just flashed 6.0.0.1 :( thanks, trying now
Guest Mtman1 Posted July 22, 2012 Report Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) 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 Edited July 22, 2012 by Mtman1
Guest Lens_flare Posted July 22, 2012 Report Posted July 22, 2012 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).
