[Recovery] [09-Feb-2011] RA-supersonic-v2.3

[ Description ]
This is a custom recovery based on Cyanogen's recovery source with a lot of things added by me. The purpose of this recovery is to avoid using adb by accessing all features directly from the menu.
[ Features ]
Detailed description of every menu item
[ Known Issues ]
v2.3.3 has some screen tearing/color weirdness going on. This is just a graphical bug in the recovery kernel, nothing to worry about. I'll try to fix it in a next version.
[ Download ] - ALWAYS check the md5sum to make sure the file isn't corrupted!

Mirror to all my recoveries (Click a few adds to keep it up and running - Thanks DrMacinyasha ^^)
[ Install ] - There are several ways to install a custom recovery, feel free to pick the one that suits you best :
- the Bootloader way - - Thanks Tiffany84 ^^
Place PC36IMG.zip on the root of your sd card.
Boot the phone into the bootloader by powering the phone down, then press the power and the volume down buttons at the same time.
Once the phone boots into the bootloader the phone will automatically recognize the zip file. It will ask if you would like to update, select yes and let it do it's thing and you will be good to go
- via Rom Manager - - STILL NEEDS TO UPDATED TO v2.3!!
Download "Rom Manager" from the Android market
Start "Rom Manager"
Select "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" and wait for it to finish
Select "Flash Alternate Recovery" and wait for it to finish -> this will install the latest version of RA recovery.
- via terminal app or adb - (Make sure your rom contains flash_image!!)
Copy recovery-RA-supersonic-v2.3.img to the root of your sdcard
start the terminal app or launch adb
su(press enter)
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-supersonic-v2.3.img(press enter)
reboot recovery(press enter)
[ Important notes ]
Don't restore wimax nandroids between different phones! If you still plan to do it make sure to remove the wimax image from the nandroid backup before restoring!!
I'll only answer to posts with a real problem description and a pastebin log. All other "issues" will be skipped/ignored.
Make sure have enough free space available on your sdcard when making a nandroid backup!!
Always check recovery.log before posting your issues!
You can do this by doing :
"cat /tmp/recovery.log" OR "cat /cache/recovery/log" right after you had the issue.
Use the "move log to sd" option in the "others" menu right after you had the issue. This will move the log to /sdcard/recovery.log so you can easily open it with a text editor.

Change-log
v2.3
Nandroid will skip sd-ext backup when it's not present.
Nandroid will not check the battery percentage anymore.
Switched off signature check by default (Stop asking now, ok?).
Cache is not selected as part of a default Nandroid backup anymore.
Added wipe Boot, System and sdcard to the wipe menu.
Re-ordered some items in the wipe menu.
Switched to a CM android-msm-2.6.35-unified kernel (should stop the endless dots).
v2.2.1
Fixed Nandroid ext backup/restore. It now backups/restore the entire ext.
v2.2
Nandroid backup is now selective, boot/system/cache/data are selected by default.
Nandroid checks if there's at least 500MB free on SDcard before starting a backup.
Kernel min freq is set to max freq to speed up things (tip of toastcfh).
Added/updated error/warning messages.
v2.1.1
Updated kernel to 2.6.32.17 , this should fix the partition issues on newer hboots
Nandroid now backups the entire content of /sd-ext , not just the apps. This fixes bootloops of certain restored roms.
Moved the "Toggle signature verification"-option from the Other- to the main flash-submenu.
Re-ordered the wipe menu.
Added SDEXT support for update scripts.
Added "filebrowser" support when you select a zip to flash.
Added "/.." support to the filebrowser so you can navigate up.
Added a mount menu so you can manually (u)mount stuff.
Added a toggle verification switch so you can flash those awesome unsigned winrar rom releases...
Fully re-wrote the wipe menu (it's not using a script anymore), added a few new wipe options.
Added "/sdcard/.android_secure" support , nandroid now backups/restores .android_secure (Froyo a2sd apps) by default.
Added a few new Google apps to the Google app backup script.
v1.8.0
updated Nandroid so it also backups and restores the wimax partition.
made the recovery 400kb smaller so it fits most recovery partitions with bad blocks.
added a return option (instead of pressing vol-up+down) to the menu (by jhansche).
completely ignore verification (by jhansche).
added menu loop (by joncfoo).
v1.7.0.2
Reduced the overall size so it can still be flashed when having lots of bad blocks.
v1.7.0.1
Initial release (port from my Nexus One recovery)

awesome I was waiting for this i was tired of having to go home to change roms!

Nice, i'm going to try this out right now and report back if there are any problems.

It works nicely. I don't like having to press both volume-keys to go back to the previous menu, but it's not a deal breaker. Good job Amon_RA. =]

trying to flash the image its telling me not found when i tried every which way to flash it any ideas? Ugh sorry maybe i need to read...a little more next time sorry!

How are you flashing it? the fastboot method worked fine for me
Edit:
1) Get fastboot.exe here
2) Place recovery-RA-evo-v1.7.0.1.img in the same dir as fastboot
3) boot your phone into fastboot (Volume Dwn+ Power) Select fast boot
Then follow
fastboot devices(press enter) (to make sure that fastboot "sees" your phone)
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-evo-v1.7.0.1.img(press enter)

I keep getting a error opening /sdcard/recovery-RA.img no such file or directory.

I got the error with both names. I renamed the file to see if I was making mistakes with the file name since it was so long.

Hey, Ra, you do realize we ARE going to need Care Bears on our Evo recoveries just like you spoiled us with on our MT3G's... I'm just saying!

I've tried downloading the file a couple of times to make sure it wasn't corrupted but I keep getting "sending 'recovery' (5032 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: image update error)"
Also thanks for the new recovery, was hoping you'd release one for our Evo's

And I know I have flash_image because I did Toasts Nand Unlock yesterday. And I checked and the file is on the root of the SD Card.

it should be in /data
once you restore a rom that didn't have it, it's no longer on the phone where it should be. if you put it back in /data and chmod 755 it you should have no problem.

do you have a github or location where the source code is viewable?

How are you flashing? Fastboot, flash_image? Are you sure you mounted /sdcard? Do an "ls /sdcard/recovery*" to make sure the sdcard is mounted and that the recovery image can be found.

Yes, I'm able to flash toasts recovery.img through fastboot no problem.

How do I check if I loaded the recovery correct? I get a Build : Not Set when I entered the recovery on the lower end where its suppose to say the build number.

You should work together with Koush and make one great recovery. He has some features such as the ability to flash a zip from ANYWHERE on the SD Card. The two of you should be able to work some miracles.

Please pay particular attention to this:
Some zips may no longer work in TWRP 2.3 if the developer is using an out-of-date update-binary. If this is a problem for you, please use TWRP 2.2.1 (download link in post below)! Zips can be fixed by replacing their old update-binary with this one.

FAQ
I installed this but my phone keeps booting into recovery over and over again.
You need to re-flash your bootloader as described here.

Can I use TWRP to restore my CWM backups?
No. The only way is to convert your uploads like this: flash CWM, restore a backup, flash TWRP, create new backup, repeat.

Where is my external SD card?
The external SD is under /emmc (as is standard for all CyanogenMod-based ROMs). The internal SD is under /sdcard.

What is the size vs speed tradeoff for compressed backups?
For my test, compression shrunk the total backup size by 43% and took 1.4 times longer.

The clock shows the wrong time!
You need to set your timezone under Settings -> Time Zone. The setting is saved in a config file on your sd card so you only have to do this once.

Can I mount my SD cards on my PC in recovery?
Yes, but only one at a time. Go into the Mount menu and select which card to mount with the "Use external SD" or "Use internal storage" radio buttons. Connect your USB cable and press "Mount USB storage".
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How can I restore single apps (and/or their data) from a TWRP backup?
Use TitaniumBackup, it supports TWRP! In Titanium Backup, open up the menu and select "Extract from Nandroid backup...". It will list all your TWRP and CWM backups and allow you to restore as many apps and their data as you want.
Even though all TWRP backup files carry the extension .win, they are either tar archives or filesystem images. System, data, cache and .android_secure are backed up as tar archives or gnu-zipped tar archives if compression is enabled. You can rename those .win files to .tar (.tar.gz if compressed) and extract them like a regular archive. Boot and recovery partitions are backed up as .img files using dd.

I have tried to test all recovery features and they all seem to work. I successfully flashed several different ROMs and performed backups and restores. However, there could still be bugs lurking somewhere - if you find one please report it!

Credits
TeamWin - Everything here is their work, I only provide a precompiled binary for our device. Particular thanks to Dees_Troy from TeamWin for his help.
arco - For the config files for our device.
Disclaimer
Do not install this if you don't know what you are doing. Incorrect flashing of a recovery can lead to a hard brick! Bugs in the recovery could result in data loss so always have a backup! I am in no way responsible for anything you do to your phone and offer no guarantees.
For Developers
TWRP has an optional companion app called GooManager. It offers a frontend for the goo.im archive which hosts ROMs and the gapps. Unlike CWM and ROM Manager, it is completely free, developers can upload their ROMs to goo.im and users can easily flash them with GooManager. It would be awesome if developers started uploading their ROMs there!
To take screenshots inside the running recovery, use adb to dump the framebuffer and then use ffmpeg to convert the raw image to a jpeg like this:
adb pull /dev/graphics/fb0
ffmpeg -vframes 1 -vcodec rawvideo -f rawvideo -pix_fmt rgba -s 480x800 -i fb0 -f image2 -vcodec mjpeg fb%d.jpg

This is a Recovery, not a ROM!
A recovery is a small bootable operating system on a seperate partition on your device. Changing your recovery does not in any way affect your running system. And when booted in the recovery you don't have access to WiFi or Bluetooth anyway.
The reason FeaMod does not work with CM9 is because it was compiled with a wrong list of partition sizes. I compiled this using arco's CM9 repository, so it has exactly the same settings, kernel config etc. as the CM9-compatible CWM that arco compiled.

looks awssum shall try flashing an xperimental.zip

You must make a backup with teamwin recovery. Maybe you can copy your CWM Backup into the Teamwin recovery folder for restore your backup.
Sorry for my english.

Awesome thanks for your work
Sent from my GT-I9001 using Tapatalk

wow...nice recovery... thanks for your work!!

This is RECOVERY it has nothing to do with any of the ROMS !!! RESTORING BACKUP from other RECOVERIES is not recommended, it will end up bricking your phone! NEVER RESTORE BACKUP WITH DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF RECOVERY, EVEN IF IT IS MADE FROM SAME SOURCE.
RECOVERY cannot be "compatible" or "incompatible" with ANY of ROM distro's.
Restoring someone's nandbackup (CM9 with arco recovery, for example) on own phone is other story.

No, it was developed from scratch by TeamWin. It is also open source and completely free unlike CWM touch which you have to buy.
You can read more at the official project website: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2

F**k the system . AMAZING WORK!!!!!!

Yay!
Awesome work! I was waiting for a touch recovery!
btw, can we flash CWM over this afterwards, just in case i want to restore a CWM backup later on?

Yes, you can change recoveries without a problem.
For arco's CWM flash this zip file and then reboot the recovery. Later in CWM you can just flash the TWRP zip, reboot recovery and you're in TeamWin Recovery again.
This is also how I suggest people migrate their backups (if really necessary): Install and reboot into CWM, restore a CWM backup, install and reboot into TWRP, perform a backup, repeat.

Works great, just installed Arcos build 4 with your Recovery.
Awesome!

[Q] Please let me know some needfullness of some scripts for rooting ace plus.

I want to know some information regarding root of ace plus. currently I have not rooted my phone.
I think http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2284737, this one is the latest version of rooting of ace plus. So regarding the softwares for rooting I want to ask some questions
1. Currently I can open Recovery mode (volume up+volume down+home key+power button), as well ass download mode (volume down+home key+power button). So what is CWM?? What it will change?? CWM=clock work mod recovery I think. So will it change my current default Recovery mode (volume up+volume down+home key+power button) ?? Or it will change my current default Recovery & Download mode both??
2. What is SuperSU Package & BusyBox.zip? What they will do?? Why they should be installed?
I will be highly grateful if you please answer me according to the question numbers. Actually I don't want to root like a novice. After knowing everything every scripts what I'm supposed to install then only I want to root. I don't think this is crime . So will you help me guys to know everything?? :silly: :silly:

What is CWM?
ClockworkMod Recovery (CWM) is a replacement recovery option for Android devices, made by Koushik "Koush" Dutta. It is based on the Android 2.1 (Eclair) recovery image. Features include Nandroid backup, adb shell, advanced update.zip options (ignore asserts and signature checks), and file browser for choosing update.zips
What will it change? Will it change my current default Recovery mode or it will change my current default Recovery & Download mode both?
It will replace your stock samsung 3e recovery giving you more functions like mounting your system partition as a writeable partition.
What is SuperSU Package & BusyBox.zip and why should they be installed?
-SuperSU allows for advanced management of Superuser access rights for all the apps on your device that need root. SuperSU has been built from the ground up to counter a number of problems with other Superuser access management tools.
-BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable. It provides replacements for most of the utilities you usually find in GNU fileutils, shellutils, etc. The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts. BusyBox provides a fairly complete environment for any small or embedded system.
BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and limited resources in mind. It is also extremely modular so you can easily include or exclude commands (or features) at compile time. This makes it easy to customize your embedded systems. To create a working system, just add some device nodes in /dev, a few configuration files in /etc, and a Linux kernel.
What will they do?
The two ZIP files will install SuperSU and BusyBox.

Great explanations

Now I have another question. CWM replaces samsung's default recovey. right??
Then if I want to unroot then will it be possible to replace this CWM with the stock recovery?? And If it is possible then will be noticeable by samsung if I go to samsung care??

After rooting:
First of all use Triangle away app for resetting binary counter and then flash stock rom and do a factory reset.
Flashing Stock Rom using odin will also revert back recovery to Stock Recovery and you will also be unrooted.
Thats it you will remove all the traces of rooting and Kies will also detect your phone it means you have not rooted.

Yep, that's right
Then if I want to unroot then will it be possible to replace this CWM with the stock recovery?
It's possible to replace even without root access, but that's not enough, you need to remove /system/xbin/su as well.
If you want to unroot your phone I suggest the following (you can also flash your official stock rom using Odin):
Flash your stock recovery.
Either by using:
Odin
Terminal Emulator (copy your stock recovery.img file to your, let's say, USB storage /sdcard and type the following codes and press enter after each line)
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p12
Note:!!! be careful when you deal with your partition table:
mount point fstype device format option mount option device2
/boot emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 default default
/cache ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p17 default default
/data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p18 default default
/misc emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p21 default default
/preload ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p22 default default
/sdcard vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p23 default default /dev/block/mmcblk0
/system ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p16 default default
/efs ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p19 default default
/recovery emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 default default
/sys_boot vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 default default
Open Triangle Away > RESET FLASH COUNTER (only if you used Odin)
Open SuperSU > Settings > choose "FULL UNROOT"
If it is possible then will be noticeable by samsung if I go to samsung care?
As long as you your flash counter is ZERO (no yellow triangle), no custom recovery or kernel and everything is stock specially boot animation they will notice nothing. :victory:
By the way I suggest using TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project) over CWM.
It's way more better, not just because it has touch UI, file manager, terminal emulator or nandroid backups compression. It can ROOT your phone (just flash it and reboot into recovery mode then choose REBOOT > SYSTEM)
It will tell that you don't have root access and it will ask you if you want to root before booting or not, swipe to root or choose DON'T INSTALL if you don't want root access.

Cool.
Upon which CWM version is this based? Note fundamental differences between newer 6.0.* after June 16 -- can flash new Kitkat ROMs and older 5.* which flash older ROMs.
Because of space limitations -- whole business must fit < 5 meg, functionality such as partitioning SDcard was removed from the 6.0.* versions.
What do we have in this version?

Plz update the post with all the features of this recovery... How can we test, if we don't know what to expect???

This is NOT a flashable zip file!
1. Download, adb push a 6.0.4.6 image file to sdcard (just in case).
2. adb push the PhilZ file to sdcard.
3. In terminal emulator or adb shell (must be rooted):
4. flash_image recovery path-to-file
If it fits and all goes well, you got it.
In case of error, do same for the 6.0.4.6 image and be back in business.

I wouldn't suggest anyone do that, I tried to it and almost bricked my phone (long story). I did it before you mentioned this, so it's not your fault. Apparently there isn't enough space in recovery to flash this. I think our recovery has 5mb and this recovery is almost 6mb. I may be wrong with this, but that was the error that showed up when I tried to flash it with flash_image.
It would be safer to suggest to download the recovery, rename it to recovery.img and place it on the root of another recovery zip, overwriting the old recovery, and then trying to flash it. That way, if something happens you will get an error instead of flashing it wrong. But as I said earlier, even if you try you will most likely get a Status 7 error.

This should be the error. Then flash_image the 6.0.4.6 which fits. Do it immediately or else .... I believe I had that happen once. I posted about that 5meg limit above. Did not try this because of the limit.

Maybe the op should post a proper flashable zip instead. Problem is that status 7 itself might mean a brick.

Thanks for the heads up, I actually didn't try booting in recovery after the status 7 error. Now I can confirm that it tries to flash it even if it shows the error and then forces the phone to go in fastboot mode until the problem is solved.

I built using official p500 armv6 repo
They should fix the device recovery size in that case!!

I believe this is simple a nice GUI for flash_image. Aint no such thing as no risk so beware.
The method I suggested should be safe if one flash_image's a valid recovery immediately after any error (but I make no guarantee!).
I advise against flashing this recovery version at this point because it is clearly too big for our device. We can get along just fine without a touch interface if need be. Never had one.
Changing board partition sizes is not a readily done simple matter by any means.

[DEV][RECOVERY] TWRP Recovery 2.7.0.0

TWRP Recovery
For Galaxy Fit
Team Win Recovery Project 2.x, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.
BUGS:
If you have found a bug, please consider posting it here.
SUPPORT:
Live support is available via #twrp on Freenode with your IRC client or just click this link.
SPECIAL NOTE:
This is the first build of TWRP and may have some unknown bugs. I take no responsibility of your devices. This is "testing" phase (for some days only). Help in testing if you wish to otherwise stay away until a final release. Don't post back here that: "You destroyed my phone", "You are cheating", "You are playing with my device".
One more thing, we are using androidarmv6 sources and if you are asking for help on IRC channel mentioned above then please mention there that: "we are not using CM or OMNI sources, we are using androidarmv6 sources".

-Improve scanning of storage locations for OpenRecoveryScript
-Haptic feedback for buttons, keyboard, and vibration at the end of longer running actions thanks to Samer Diab
-Fixed ext4 wiping when no selinux contexts are defined for that partition (e.g. sd-ext)
-Update SuperSU to 1.93 and improve installation process
-Added selinux contexts restoration to fix permissions
-Load RTC offset on Qualcomm devices to fix the date/time in recovery
-USB Mass Storage fixes Add SELinux support checking

-Various SELinux fixes and bug fixes.

DOWNLOAD:
http://www.mediafire.com/view/?xum64uit9a43q6s
INSTALLATION / UPDATING:
-From the above download link, you'll get a 'recovery.img' file.
-Put that file at the root of sdcard (means, not in any folder)
-Now, open Terminal Emulator and give this command:
Code:
su
You'll be asked to grant superuser permissions, grant them.
-Now, give this command:
Code:
flash_image recoveryonly /sdcard/recovery.img
And wait for 2-3 seconds until it jumps to a new line. Now, close Terminal Emulator.
-Now, normally reboot to recovery and enjoy new recovery!

About the current build:
STABLE.

1st - install PhilZ Touch Recovery 6.40.1.
2nd - install twrp.

My PC is busy again and I can't say when I'll get time but I'll be releasing update soon.
If you want it badly then just do:
Unpack the recovery.img (of this TWRP)
Now, unpack the recovery.img of PhilZ Touch Recovery.
Now, replace the "KERNEL" file in TWRP's unpack from the PhilZ Touch Recovery's unpack.
Now, repack the TWRP's unpack.
Note: If you don't know how to unpack/repack recovery.img file, just Google and you'll learn it in few minutes. It's very easy.
You can use that until my official release.

Ok, thanks.

@Bhargav97, as you kindly asked me I tried to complete the recovery image.
Guys, as I don't own any Fit device, you'll have to flash this at your own risk. Though I've done this before for my device. If anything will not work - let me know. Good Luck!

The recovery image you supplied causes a long boot freeze at initial Samsung Logo followed by reboot and long boot freeze and reboot.... etc.
Boot to recovery using hardware keys produces the same result.
This image completely screws the boot image too, you cannot normal boot after flashing the recovery image. Reflashing the previous working recovery image does not help. I have to restore a recovery image using ODIN to get back to a functional recovery.
No success I am afraid.

There are a lot of method nowadays for unpack-repack and most of them fails to make a proper repack, so you'll have booting problems like you had when you tried to do it yourself. I just told @belyava to do unpack-repack because he did this with the recovery (TWRP - had same reboot to system issue) of his device successfully. Thanks @belyava for this help.
Everything expected to work. However, you can always report bugs with a proper recovery logfile.
Updated download link with a new mediafire link. The latest build can be now labelled as STABLE build.
