ClockworkMod

Now that we have permanent root, is there anyway we can get a clockwork mod working on out phone?
EDIT: ClockworkMod now available...MUST BE ON WIFI TO FIND

I read on twitter they're porting the recovery images for our phones and it should be ready soon

sounds awesome. thanks for the great news

This is awesome...

Hope they get it going soon. I got ahead of the game, and had their ROM manager installed and flashed the alternate recovery (all this after permanent root).
It does not work (works great on N1 - but not on this one yet).
Do not think anything else is messed up (as when selecting recovery at hboot - it shows stock options and then an error message further down...).
I thinks as soon as Clockworkmod gets the MT4G setup and it appears in the choice of devices, it should be easy to just flash their recovery over the one that I flashed earlier.

The "alternate recovery" in ClockWorkMod is Amon Ra Recovery (arguably better). I'm such he's working for a port for all the devices that got permrooted yesterday.

kmobs has it running now. Not sure when it will be released though.

Dang they already have roms for the g2! I wonder if we'll get any love for the mt4g

Not until some devs pickup the phone. It is good that Kmobs has one cuz he may get the ball rolling but most devs (at least the ones I follow) all picked up a G2. Be patient though, I thought the MTslide was dead a few months back but there are still ROMs being released over there.

I think well be in luck with support.this phone is a whole different beast from the mt3g and hopefully much more appealing to devs, as it is consumers. Also,I think KingKlick has one and he made some great roms for the N1

OMG please no! I would almost bet that if his account is unbanned that you won't see any roms from him until after someone else posts one.

To be fair, the ROM they have on the G2 forums is from the HTC Desire Z which is the exact same identical device as the G2.
Which makes me wonder if it'll be possible to load the Desire HD ROM without much porting work needing to be done given the similarities in internals.

What did he get banned for? I came from the Evo section, so all I ever saw was his kernels popping up.

They have ported over Rom Manager and their recovery to handle the GT already. I am hoping that they do so for the MT4G soon, as I do not have a working recovery right now.

Supposedly, he was taking ROMs from the other devs in the Nexus One forms, tweaking them just ever so slightly, then re-releasing them as his own creation with no credit due.
Emphasis on the supposedly.

If anyone gets their hands on a custom recovery before everyone else, I have a flashable rooted stock with bloatware removed uploading right now to Rapid Share. So, if you want to try it let me know. But be advised...IT IS UNTESTED!

That's what I heard but while reading some of their tweets it seemed like it was more due to lame drama between him and a certain team..
Either way,banned or not, he has his own website..

Official ClockworkMod Recovery

I have been checking Rom Manager for an Evo Shift ClockworkMod recovery from time to time and this morning it was there. Seems to work well, it handles backup restores a lot better.
Sorry if this is old news. I didn't see it before.
The install is through the official Rom Manager application which is in the Android Market.

I made the OP more accurate. I hope this answers your question. The install is on Rom Manager from the Market.

Well, I really have nothing to flash to, but I rebooted and got the newest recovery from the list!

The person who makes the zip needs to use the correct script language.

2.3.4 flashed on i9000 or i897?

Has anyone flashed this on i9000 or i897?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1055591

that is for nexus s.
nothing more needs to be said. would never work

I guess no one has ever ported app's to other devices?
since it is really only the update to google talk we are interested in not the radio and other b.s.

apps yes, kernels (from complete different devices) no.
so the 2.3.4 rom is useless without the kernel
otherwise we would have 3.0 honeycomb ported from honeycomb devices, and then we would say screw 2.3.4
its more than just the gtalk. otherwise it would just be an app update!

not saying that it would work but, there is no kernel in that update.
we would need top modify it EG: take out the radio.

Unless you installed a front facing camera on your galaxy s, 2.3.4 would be pointless (even if it was possible). Stick with 2.3.3 for now. I hear some very un-official rumors about 2.4 coming late this year or mid next year.

Anyone thats rooted get the 2.3.5 update? I keep checking and it say no update available, but looks like its not even searching. Any one else having any more luck?

it will be available shortly, don't worry about getting OTA.
I'm running cyanogenmod and already have the radio installed.
It's only a matter of time.

Did you just download the zip and flash it in recovery over cyanogen?

It is not on 2.3.4 it is on 2.3.5 - if you are still showing 2.3.4 that you did something wrong.

How to backup stock rom?

I'd like to get custom rom's on my phone, but one thing scares me. Since im from a canadian carrier, i don't really have the flexibility of finding my rom as U.S citizens have. I've heard that nandroid backs up the rom effectively, but on the contary, i also heard it keeps bits of rooted elements. Any insight at all?
Thanks in advance.

Nvflash one click app. Pretty simple process.
When your done and boot into ClockWorkMod custom recovery, you can backup your stock rom.
LG G2x - 2.3.7 CM7
Asus Transformer - 3.7 Revolver OC/UV

Thank you for the replies. I've got three more questions. That is considered "rooting" correct? I'd be able to install a rom afterwards using clockworkmod right? I've used the clockwork on another device, so it isn't new to me at all.
My second is regarding the stock G2X recovery. Would it be the same for my Canadian version of the phone? I'm guessing yes since the hardware is the same
Finally, would this enable my FM radio? For some reason, it isn't enabled with my carrier.
Thanks in advance
