I only wanted to ask, if anyone on this Defy forum would be capable to make clockworkmod recovery or another recovery, starting on the key event, right after the M logo appears. Could be done through charge-only-mode. If you want to know more, take a deeper look into Xrecovery for Sony Ericsson - chargemon file.
I am not capable to do this, but I think it could be done the same way.

Hello, Yes, I have searched and not found the answer, hence this thread.
I have a rooted Garmin-Asus Garminfone with 2.1 Eclair (aka Nuvifone A50).
Rom Manager does not support this phone (yet).
How can I make a full backup of this phone? There is no recovery image anywhere for it yet. I want to ensure I get the bootloader etc. copied.
What software is required? Nandroid? How do you install nandroid manually?
ADB REBOOT RECOVERY works. I get the menu after I hit the home key, but I am not aware of how to get it into recovery with buttons while powering it on.
I have to use ADB REBOOT to restart the phone out of the recovery screen.
Any thoughts & suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Spaz.
you know its kindda frustrating after knowing that not many people actually own this phone. I have been waiting for at least a recovery image to be made available so that we can do all the fun stuff but it looks like a long shot currently. Thankfully i have an HTC Wildfire too and it can run CM7.
Hopefully some dev gets hold of this phone. It would be nice seeing the garmin app in CM for example.
Hi, I Have installed in my Olipad clockworkmod v08.
Now, when i start in recovery mode, appear on display:
Recovery key detected
Booting recovery kernel image.
Can anybody help me?
Please.
Not to be rude but why would you install something designed for the GTab on your Olipad?
Curiosity and wanting to learn.
For Olipad ther'isnt custom rom.
Judging by the screen shots of the thing, I can see where you would think it might work. It's almost a carbon copy of the GTab, and it looks like it has TnT loaded as well. Unfortunatly, this is well beyond my scope.
Hi, I also have an olipad and I already went down a long road with CWMod and other moddings.
I can tell you that you are risking the booting capabilities of your device as there is something peculiar with the partitions and the boot.
I'm currently with a working pad, but I have to do a "tethered bot" because power button always brings up "apx mode" that is a low level mode to reprogram the device.
IF your device still boots with power button, I could try to give you some suggestion and you could help me "undo" a few mistakes.

Not that this is going to help you right now, but I would avoid GTAB mods until a dev / modder with an Olipad can verify that these are, in fact, working. And maybe has a nvflash image of an Olipad device to give you a backout.
I've gotten a few PM's about this device too, and I've mentioned the same. I think it's similar to a zPad T2, at least from the little I know of it.

Hi,
What's missing from that list of files is the partition list, and possibly the .bct.
The former would tell you the number and size of the partitions, and if you don't have that you wouldn't know which of those .img files goes where.
The latter is a kind of mystery file, but is apparently critical.

yes try to rename the files update.zip and place in the root of the internal memory
then try reboot holding +
Also make sure you remove any sdhc card, when trying this, especially if you already have a recovery on it...
Hi,
i had no android market on my Galaxy Player Wlan 4.0 , and i read somewhere you can use i9000 images on it.
I didnt want to flash another rom, just be able to install zip applications. But the 3e recovery image wouldnt let me.
So i installed the clockworkmod zimage for the i9000 according to this guide h**p://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Full_Update_Guide .
Yes, I was careless, i didnt do a backup of the recovery image before i used heimdall to flash the recovery image.
But now the player isnt booting anymore. I see Samsung on the screen for a short time, then it just shows some shredded letters and turns black (with the background lamp on).
But i can still boot into download mode. So i suppose i could flash the right image, if i would have it.
Just want to be very sure about the next steps, what would you guys suggest?
Iam in a bind here, brought on by my own carelessness, iam aware of that
Thanks in advance!!!!!
Help you to let it top
Come on
If you need to help.please that....
Can I go to a samsung service station? Or they dont accept half bricked players?
I found out that there was also a player called yp-gb1 launched in korea, maybe the zkernels are identical?
Its working again, but the touch screen is very strange.
Left and right is ok, but up and down is changed. If i want to click something on the top i have to touch the bottom :x
I will keep going, maybe i find another rom
I don't know if this question has been asked a lot. But i had a problem after installing a custom ROM. I installed the custom ROM using x recovery menu. It said something about kernel error. So i rebooted after that and the boot screen loads till the sony ericcson logo and it dims the screen a bit and freezes there. I cant even access the xrecovery menu. Nothing works from there. I have to remove my battery to switch it off. I tried using flash tool. I press the back button after connectiing the usb cable in flash tool flash mode. It detects the device in flash mode and says some error and says to disconnect. After the device is detected in flash mode the device start automatically and again freezes at the sony ericsson logo screen. Please tell me if this can be fixed. Or do i have to give it to the SE service centre?
same problem here .any help ?someone?
Was the ROM even designed for your phone?
I'd go as far to say as you may be screwed, if you can't even boot into recovery.
When I semi-bricked my phone and got it stuck on the boot logo, I had to hunt for 2 hours for it's stock firmware to flash through odin, because nandroid is stupid and the phone still didn't work after restoring the so-called "complete backup" that I had it make.
So basically, you can't boot into recovery, and when you go into download mode to flash through Odin it doesn't work? I'd try Odin again and follow the required steps exactly, because if your phone starts to boot, it should work, and I think you should actually be able to get into recovery.
i resolved with an older version of flashtool (FlashTool_0.2.9.1) which i found it here in the forum on a tutorial.thanks anyway
use SEUS
Hello, no need to return to Sony Ericsson warranty.
Just use SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) or a PC Companion, i think it works with all of the xperia phones, but im not sure.
Go to google, type "sony update service" without qutes, select 1.st result, click download.
TIP:If you have problems getting to recovery mode, then take out the battery, plug in USB cable, hold back key,insert battery, still hold the back key until the utility says so or there a notification light
The link is for X1 , but it should work. But remember, before you ask a question, search it up first, there are several tutorials out there.
NEED HELP? Ask me!
Hello Everyone,
I am very new to the android developing and modding but I do have a basic idea of coding and know my way very well around linux. My problem is that I have a Samsung Galaxy E5 series phone (rooted) and I tried editing its build.prop to optimize battery and 3g speeds. I made a noob mistake and did not take any backups. But in my defense I do not have any custom recovery like CWM etc. installed . So a backup would be not much of a help at this time. So now my phone is stuck in the stock recovery mode which has very limited options. I searched on the internet/this forum but could not find any CWM/TWRP recovery for my phone.
I am willing to make my own CWM recovery using source but since i can not switch off the phone (non removable battery) , it is just lying there. And compiling a new recovery would take much longer time for an amateur like me. What I am asking here is , if anyone can help me with my situation by compiling a CWM recovery. I was searching the documentation earlier and I do have recovery.img and boot.img from the stock rom. My android version is Kitkat 4.4.4. Firmware version : E500HXXU1AOB2 but on the recovery it says : KTU84P. E500HXXU1AOA6.
I am so confused. Any help would be appreciated.
To the mods: Sorry if my thread is in the wrong section. Please let me know if I made any mistake.
I don't know about all the rest cause I have limited skills in compiling but hold down power button and keep holding it down and phone should turn off if that's of any help, good luck

Thank you for replying banjomike. I held down power button for almost a minute and during that time the phone kept vibrating every five seconds or so. The phone is stuck at the samsung logo and just won't poweroff. I tried every button combination I could think of. I don't know what the hell kind of phones they make these days.
I am going to download stock firmware and flash it via odin. Lets see if that helps me.
