The complete Sidekick 4G rooting/flashing/ toolkit!
Did you brick your phone? Check out the One-click "Easy ODIN" (Java required)
Do you need to root, but don't know how? (Who am I to judge?)
Are you looking for the best ROM for the SK4G up to date? (GOV2)
Do you need the CWM files?
Do you need all the drivers? (needed for "Easy ODIN")
Do you need more speed? (Check out the V6 Supercharger!)
Do you need faster 4G, or more battery? (Check out the 4G Blaze modem!)
If any of these fit you, chances are this kit is perfect for you. If it fits all of your needs, I guess it's just a match made in heaven!
If you find mistakes, please report them so I can correct them and reupload the pack. (I will be making changes as time progresses, so be alert!)

I assume you rooted it with Super One Click so I have to ask.. Is this the first time you get into recovery? Have you ever been able to flash roms on this device?
Yea I used superclick, and I have never been able to get into cwm, only stock recovery, haven't flashed a rom....I read the whole cwm post and tried a few things but no luck.....from what I read the recovery isn't copying to the system/bin....but I am determined to get it, rooted every phone I have had since the g1....but any further help would be appreciated...thanks

yeah, it sounds like the recovery binary isn't getting into /system/bin. if you don't mind confirming.... you are extracting the recovery.zip, and putting the recovery file from in there into /system/bin? (then of course you have the update.zip, which is CWM, on the root of your sdcard)
and are you using a file program to paste the recovery file in there? and if/when you do, is it telling you that the file already exists and asking if you want to replace it?
Yea I extract and I am using root explorer and when I paste it, says 1 exsist and do I want to overwrite, I do so and update is on my sd..so I really am at a loss at y it isn't working...read the forums and people are doing the same as I am and it works...so don't know what my options are to achieve a new rom, lol...thanks for the help
Sent from my SGH-T839 using xda premium
damn, ok, that's strange. the only last thing i can think of is, when in stock recovery, you are choosing 'reinstall packages'?
i hope you figure it out, the files definitely work, i just downloaded and used them a few days ago, so i don't know what's going wrong there.
Yea when in stock I choose reinstall packages, but always get the signature verification failed.....and from what I read its because of the recovery.....but I will keep trying and maybe get lucky on one of them....might just odin and redo the whole proccess again...thanks for the help...

you could try this in Terminal Emulator:
-type su and hit enter
-then do: cp /sdcard/recovery /system/bin
this assumes that you have the recovery file on the root of your sdcard.

i just re-rooted my phone from stock, testing the Unroot now
Edit: it seems unroot didnt work, though like mentioned above you would only want to unroot incase of hardware issue or you want t replace the phone wit T-Mo, but thats all good now cause i posted a working Odin image earlier.
So cwm doesn't work for the sidekick 4g

First off thank you for the easy root But now I have an issue, the SD card wont work, looks like it wont find the extension anyone know how to fix this? Ive used many different card and none read but I know all work. Without this I cant do a ROM
Try reformatting the card? Did they work before you rooted? do they work again if you unroot?
They worked before the root, I didn't unroot yet. When you out then in the phone and go to the SD card setting it shows nothing. Just says unavailable. So I can't even format it on the phone. I've formatted them in many ways on the pc too
HTC EVO = my best friend
did you try pulling out the sdcard and putting it back in? does it show a blank sdcard, or no sdcard at all?
need a mirror, site is down
I cannot get # in adb. Only $. Can anyone tell me why? I rooted with this method and have smooth maximus v2.0 and bali kernel v2.0. Any ideas?

Second that - been unable to get this yesterday and today so far.
Used this: http://hotfile.com/dl/115623149/42a5e65/SuperOneClickv1.9.1-ShortFuse.Drivers.rar
Im trying to root my phone and it keeps saying device not found after looping in superoneclick 1.9....i downloaded the 32 bit drivers because my computer is 32 bits tried to download the 64 bits but no way to install on my comp...i have usb debugging checked ....any suggestions anybody elese had a problem rooting it ?
So I'm not sure why this is happening lately, however, every time I boot into recovery mode, I get that triangle image with the exclamation point in the middle on my screen and a message ” Installation Aborted ” on the bottom of the screen. Any ideas on why this might be happening?
Sent from my Crack Injected Doubleshot using xda premium
That has happened to me once before, not sure why it happened though. All you can do really is press volume up and the power button again, hold until you launch the factory recovery screen, should be blue colored font and like only 3 or so options available. One option is to install/load update.zip, thats your CWM recovery image, once you load that you should be good. Its the only way to flash the custom recovey. While we are on the subject, does anyone know how to, or in what folder the recovery image needs to go in so that you can flash directly from rom manager?
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda premium
Rom manager several issues on our phones. I would try termial emulator and root explorer for adding an image.
sent from my sense on crack MT4G Slide using xda premium
I get the same message over and over again.... E: signature verification failed. Installation aborted. Any ideas???
If you can hook your phone to your PC and have ADB installed follow the instructions below.
I imagine you can follow them from a terminal emulator on the phone as well, but the / key doesn't work from the hardware keyboard, and on some softkeyboards it's hard to find if it exists at all.
Another thread, with much more detail, is here.
From this thread;
paulobrien said:
Cool! I got a myTouch 4G Slide!
Not cool! No ClockworkMod recovery!
Solution! Make my own.
You must have a 'S-OFF' device to install this recovery image!
Here is my unofficial MoDaCo build of ClockworkMod for the T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide / aka HTC Doubleshot. In order to flash this recovery, you need to have temproot or permanent root via Fr3evo (grab from here, push to /data/local, run via ADB then reconnect after it drops your connection for root access). If you need ADB, you can grab it here.
You use this image at your own risk! Proceed with caution!
To install, simply...
Download the ClockworkMod image file from here
Copy the file to /data/local ('adb push doubleshot.clockworkmod.4.0.0.9.modaco.img /data/local')
Write the image to the recovery partition ('dd if=/data/local/doubleshot.clockworkmod.4.0.0.9.modaco.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21')
Do a recovery reboot to test ('adb reboot recovery').
That's it!

I'm not sure what exactly you're asking for.
All I did was follow these steps and it was no problem.
If you don't have ADB installed, instructions for installing ADB are here.
I'm pretty new at dealing with this phone, but if you post step by step what you're doing and what step the process breaks down at (i.e. where are you getting unexpected results) I'll try to help you.
I actually got out working again using the method described by unclespoon. I had to use terminal emulator and the copy/transfer the recovery image that way. I'm now back on MoDaco v4.0.0.9 Super excited and about to flash another ROM. I have officially reached flash junkie status.lol

Crap I dont have the all blue version on my comp so I cant make a flashable, thought I DLd it but I guess not. If anyone has a copy of the all blue version let me know so I can package it =)
Anyway here is the flashable for the blue outlined version from OP
The flashing script should delete both instances of stock swype, if installed, and clear caches.
If you have issues you may still need to manually delete all swype data through root explorer.
Of course if you wish to just push it manually you can extract the APK from the zip and do so.

First link doesn't really work for me. Tried on two different machines...it starts the download and then immediately dies.
Second link wants me to wait 5hrs for the file. :-/

I don't know why you had to wait 5 hours I waited 30seconds and my download started.

I didn't wait 5hrs to start the download - they're rate-limiting me to 15KB/s, which will take ~5hrs to download.

I tried on my device and computer. My computer said 45 minutes.
Any file upload site suggestions with good speeds?

I thought I saw a post somewhere on here for devs on this forum, and they grant something like 40GB free. Can't remember what it was called, though.
I'll see if I can find it.

I'm not a dev though
But maybe I could still use it for the transfer speeds.
Thanks.

This was the thread I saw about it...but you're right, if you aren't "recognized" or whatever, I don't know if it helps.

Everything I used to create the Zip is in here: http://d-h.st/zIL
I used unpack-bootimg.pl (I forget where that came from) to unpack an existing CWM Touch recovery.img from the Nexus S 4G
Then, I unpacked an existing boot.img from our device using zman0900s tools here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1405284
Then, I added the etc/recovery.fstab and the default.prop from the epic to the nexus s 4g's recovery img.
Then, I repacked using a modified tool I made based on nubecoder's boot.img repack tools: https://github.com/nubecoder/create_boot.img
Then, I added the newly made ramdisk-recovery.img to Dees_Troy's TWRP zip.
Instructions:
Just flash this zip in any MTD recovery: http://d-h.st/Wfq and enjoy the new recovery after you go to advanced>reboot recovery
Unfortunately, due to the way our boot.imgs are packed, this recovery will be replaced when you install a new kernel or ROM, but the recovery replacement does not occur until you reboot recovery, so all you have to do is flash whatever you were flashing, then flash the CWM Touch zip and then recovery will stay.
On stock touchwiz ROMs, flash this modified version of Shadow Kernel that includes the recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1419586&d=1350836408
There are probably other ways to build the recovery, but none of them worked for me... not Koush's Builder and not building from source
Anyone can add this recovery to their kernel by extracting a boot.img using zman0900s tool, then adding my initramfs_cwm folder in the build script zip at the beginning of my post, then repack using nubecoder's tool.
Thanks to Koush for CWM
Thanks to our CM team for the device specific files I pulled to make this possible
Thanks to Dees_Troy for his TWRP zip I based this on
Thanks to nubecoder for his create boot image zip
Thanks to zman0900 for his extract boot image zip
First. About to try now. Thanks for this.

Weird that it softbricked you. It worked fine for me. I wouldn't have posted it otherwise. Try again after you odin stock.
Thanks a million for this xbox! Been waiting a long time to see a touch cwm!

No problem guys.
*Ahem* I'd like to file a complaint if you will. I flashed this and my phone stole my little sister, and obviously since you put no disclaimer in this thread I'd like to formally blame you.
Can't wait to get the new epic... an awesome ex epic owner may be sending me his for free... I know what recovery I will be using! Thanks Xbox!

I would like to officially 2nd this statement!
Heh, good work Jake. I'm sure people will greatly enjoy this.
Great job Jake..Didn't think we would ever see this. So where this is based off of twrp, would it be possible to create an inject.cwm file like twrp has so there is an option to re inject after a flash?

Took an hour to redo my phone. At theater to see paranormal activity 4. Will re flash when I get home. I don't know why it soft bricked. I really want cwm touch. All I did was flah the zip. No rom update or anything else. But all the positive comments from everyone else gives me hope. But just in case I will re download in case it was a bad dl.

So want to see that movie... im jealous... and ya I would have to say it was probably a bad download seens how nobody else has had a problem... anyways goodluck and enjoy the movie!
Uhhhhhhhhhhh... I was waiting too long for this "touch", then I hopped onto TWRP days ago AND deleted ALL but one CWM backup... and here's the long-awaited touch but aww... Since TWRP everything's a hell lot easier but lost that sense of geek...
PLUS: Would like to report that TWRP does not work with "Stock FC09 Prerooted MTD", stuck at the Samsung logo too. If same phenomenon here, I guess it's that InjectTWRP won't work with stock kernels (CM and other kernels based on CM are all fine) ... @xboxfanj interested in the issue?

Yeah thats the problem. You need to be on an mtd rom. So, Odin stock then cwm, then flash any cm rom, then flash this cwm.

"God damn it, Gump! You're a god damn genius! This is the most outstanding answer I have ever heard. You must have a goddamn I.Q. of 160. You are goddamn gifted, Private Gump!"
Substitute "Xbox" for "Gump" and you've got it. Jake, your genius is truly amazing and inspirational.Thank you...
