Will do..........

koush is probably working on ClockworkMod for the epic. He already has a version out for the other GS phones that can be flashed with Rom manager. I'm sure we'll have a good recovery sooner than later.
We probably won't get a RA recovery, but instead get something more akin to the custom recovery SDX made for the Moment (forgive me, I can't remember the name/dev of that one).

Thank You for doing this. I've been trying to get around to it for a while and been having issues. Glad others will now be able to enjoy. Good Job!
Can I root with z4root and install cwm on 2.1 update 1 then just nandroid this to update?

Thank you!!!
its not letting me download the file.
Edit: Ok i was able to download, now im getting a md5 mismatch
Is this FroYo, the official build?
Thanks for giving me access to an updated bp_nvm_default.
Can someone PLEASE tell me how to get to 2.2 from Rooted 2.1?
I installed this yesterday. One thing to remember is after you install this to wipe user data after you install the nandroid. If you dont you wont be able to get past the blur setup. You must have a blur account for this. This nandroid is a stock 2.2.1 froyo us rom with blur. The only thing in this extra is that it is rooted and has recovery installed. If you want to get your DEFY back to a stock rom after installing something else this will do it.
I flashed this but have been stuck at the Moto logo for about 10 minutes, it is just in a boot loop.
How to install this please.
NO one can help?
i hope you all know what nandriod backups are? you must have clockwork recovery on your defy (which means you gotta be rooted) then put this nandroid backup in the backup folder inside the goapkrev(or however its spelled) folder on your sd card, when you boot into clockwork, press restore, and pick this backup you downloaded, after restoring, wipe data and reboot. Cheers! i prefer the leaked froyo, it has jboogie's blurless ginger/froyo rom which is beast.
That is what I did and how I got into this mess.

CWM vs TWRP ??

I'm very new to android and have been using Clockworkmod Recovery basically since day 3 or 4 since I got my HTC One XL...
I'm just wondering how many of you are using TWRP instead of Clockworkmod Recovery.. and if so, do you recommend me flashing that instead of CWM?
I have no real complaints with CWM and dont mind using the volume keys to navigate. But besides that, are there any real advantages besides the touch interface?? also, can someone post a link where i can find TWRP ?
thanks guys!! I LOVE the community on here!! it's great!!!
also, when people refer to "Touch Recovery" are y'all referring to TWRP ?

I personally use twrp I like its setup look and feel and it is a little speedier than cwm when making backups, flashing etc in my opinion. I used cwm on every phone I had except this one x. After twrp was introduced I switched and love it.

i believe CWM is also touch screen, just no buttons, so you gotta be careful not push a wrong link - but they have conf screen as well.... haven't tried TWRP - would also like to know if it has any advantages... thanks!

to go back to CWM, all you would need to do is place the CWM.img in the fast boot folder, and
go to the dir where u have fastboot files (mine is c:\fastboot ) but i am also running a virtual machine on a mac.. process should be the same since i'm still using windows..
anyways in command prompt.. navigate to c:\fastboot
and then,
fastboot flash recovery CWM.img
(or whatever your clockworkmod recovery image is named)
I haven't tried this, but it's how i originally flashed cwm and it's how i just flashed twrp.... so far it's sweet, a lot more options as well.. don't see myself going back anytime soon. (sorry cwm devs, still love cwm)

+1. Yea it's easy to flash back and forth between recoveries. Just do it the same way you flash the first one.

right, wish I'd known that before. I ended up in bootloops when using twrp to ry and restore a cwm nandroid. luckily, i was able to reflash a beans rom and get it running again, but in the process, I believe I have messed up something. the kernel, bootloader, maybe how the file system is set up. dont mix them up. choose one and stick with it.
Well, I'm pretty sure that one, twrp is simpler, more pretty, more useful, faster, easier.
Also Pretty sure cwm in some cases ruins your phone forever.
Go a head and use cwm though.
TWRP has and official release for the One XL although last time I checked CWM only has a port. I highly suggest using TWRP. It should work better

Another advantage of TWRP is that the sdcard can be mounted while in recovery mode. I don't think that's supported in CWM.
That may be the case for the htc, the thing is, I am on a verizon samsung galaxy s 3.
I wonder if that makes a difference!?
I was reading elsewhere in these forums that the non kexec kernels ( meaning that the bootloader is actually unlocked) don't work as well on twrp

Every device is different, this discussion is about the One X(L). If you want more info on CWM vs. TWRP on the Galaxy S3, head over to the forum for your device. Don't follow the GS3, but would assume that its officially supported by CWM (which makes a huge difference). That is not even the case for the One X. Its not yet officially supported, and the CWM we have is just a port. Although an official version is in testing.

On the main/home TWRP screen, go Wipe>battery stats.
But battery stats get wiped every time you charge the phone, anyway. There is not benefit to wiping it manually: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/google-engineer-debunks-myth-wiping-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/

ClockworkMod Recovery! Well whenever the phone gets released. I attempted to build a test version of CWM at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863
Fingers crossed that it works.
But I will probably need someone to give me these two items once they get a phone to correct the configs.
Post the file /proc/partitions
Post the file /proc/mounts
For the adb commands. "adb shell" then "cat /proc/partitions" and "cat /proc/mounts" Should work.
EDIT: Thank you to he_stheone64 for giving me what I need above. Now I can make a fully working recovery.
To get back on topic, here's the fstab extracted from the recovery

just curious, to get updates
My device has T-Mobile UK firmware (1.28.61.7) and I will be looking to go back to stock soon to hopefully receive official 1.29 firmware update.
I need the appropriate recovery for my device but am not quite sure what that is. I have a nandroid but this was done in CWM after rooting.
Is the recovery of 1.29 different to 1.28 and do I need a T-Mobile specific recovery or is the generic recovery just the same?
If somebody could point me in the direction of the recovery I require it would be much appreciated.

Are you 100% sure??
I am trying to return my 1.28.61.7 device to stock using a rooted nandroid which I made without any other modifications. After many trials and tribulations, I managed to unroot by removing SuperSU and binaries but, after installing 'stock' recovery my device still says relocked and tampered and will not boot into recovery.
I am, however, able to perform a full wipe from within android though.
I would really like complete clarity on this if anyone can help me as I need to get back to stock to get an official update when it appears as there are no stock nandroids available or any RUU's for my device.

Tampered showed @ hboot is because you have "unlocked" before
So If I have clockwork mod touch recovery installed and I want to go back to stock recovery without loosing my app and data I can just flash this in cwm?

Hey guys,
this might be a stupid question, but can I root my device with TWRP? All How-to's say to use CWM and the SuperSU zip is also called CWM-SuperSU-v0.94.zip. Can I also flash this file via TWRP?

Its Just That Cwm Came Out First Oh So Long Ago.... I Think Most People Tend To Stick With What They Know Best. As The Old Saying Goes, "if It Aint Broke, Dont Fix It."
Doesnt Mean TWRP Isnt As Good... Just That A Lot Of People Started Out With CWM, Most Devs Use This In Their Roms And All The Tutorials Are On How To Instal CWM...
Its Personal Choice As You Can Flash Whatever Recovery You Want...

[Q] Please Help-- Soft Brick, Limited Options

Okay, I already posed in a couple of places and have gotten limited responses.
So I have a Samsung Galaxy Centura and pretty much no Odin3 access, and a microSD card, a stock ROM that is not signed, and I need it signed, preferably by Samsung. I heard that 3e ROMs can only work if the signature verification is disabled or you have the properly signed ROM. I have the ROM, and as previously stated, no CWM or other custom recovery. I need to fix this phone and my only option is through the SD card.

If you can find your rom for odin a can make a flashable zip for and sign...
