What is the best recovery we have ?

Hi I'm using CMW currently and I don't think It's fully setup for our phone and the issue I'm having I can't charge my phone with the power off when I try to the phone powers on when I plug it in and boots to recovery by itself. I tried koush cmw and I'm currently using mondaco cmw I think It's called same issue with both it also just feels like there isn't enough options.
I just download goomanager from the play market and I'm thinking of trying TWRP I read that the back ups between twrp and cmw aren't compatible so I'll just make an extra back up. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm using TWRP now after using cwm for the last month. I think TWRP has better support for the hos. Never had this charging issue though.

TWRP is good, very nice features! BUT : It is not compatible with Aroma for now, so, as many packages (applications, some ROMs...) uses it, I went back to Touch CWM (5.8.3.1) for compatibility reasons, which is also a very good and "standard" flavor.

It works with Aroma now, I used it with the TweakMachine

I use CWm and also found that it turns on to recovery when powered off and charging, but the charging does continue. I do not know why it powers on to recovery, but the charging does continue.

If you're still in communication, please let him know to get in touch with the TWRP team to see if they will share their "trick" to allow flashing of boot.img via normal recovery.

I really liked his recovery--donated too--nice themes--

I installed TWRP the phone can charge with the power off now, and I like the different options more, this will hold me over until 4ext. When flashing new recoveries are battery stats lost ? Should you wipe battery stats ? Or no.

Not sure when the pros recommend it, but I wipe battery stats btw new roms--

It does charge in recovery. HTC phones more or less have the booting up into recovery problem/issue/feature??? after installing cwm. I wipe battery stats after every new rom I flash after its fully recharged.

I've read that battery stats are wiped after every 100% charge.

TWRP is awesome. I've only used cwm for years. When I got this phone I gave TWRP a go and can't go back.
Flashing roms without needing to fast boot the img is awesome. The look is awesome, themes are cool. All the extra features like built in file manager, great!
Sent from my HTC One S

I was also having the issue of not being able to charge while the phone was off without it booting into recovery. I seemed to have "fixed" the problem by turning on Fast Boot in the Power settings menu.
I may try TWRP, since it seemed like CWM always had one issue or another on my old HTC Evo, and this charging issue isn't a big thing but isn't helping me trust it

I'm using the classic non-touch cwm. I had issues restoring nandroid's with twrp so switched to cwm, which i had been using happily on my previous phones.

I use it all the time, the only thing I have a complaint about is when you choose to reboot right after the kernel flash...it doesnt always do it. In fact it seldom does it, but then you can just proceed to do it manually.
Not a biggie, but its nice.
Make a nandroid of your current rom, download the new rom you want to try and open the rom.zip in flash image gui under boot, flash the kernel, boot to recovery, wipe everything and then flash your new rom.
Once you get the rhythm, you are good...I always back up my texts so I can transfer them to the new rom I am switching to.

[Q] Sense based ROM's won't work on my HOXL

Hi every one ! since I rooted my hoxl I have only flashed aosp ROMS not sense based roms , so yesterday I decided to flash one (Hakataxl) when the phone booted up I cooldn't pass from the lock screen when I tried to slide the ring , boom reboot I even flashed the ROM twice !
and flashed another rom (VIPER) the same thing happend please help me

Also did you do a full wipe in twrp? Factory reset, system, cache, dalvik cache?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

I'm on 1.09 hboot and after I switched From liquidsmooth Rom to viper, viper wouldn't boot. I actually has to flash kernel separately. And instead of the viper boot screen liquid smooth screen kept popping up. The Rom would boot but crash and reboot once I tried to do anything with the phone.. so maybe try flashing a sense kernel after Rom install regardless of your hboot. Also make sure you wipe everything venomtester said

2.4.1.0 by the way what does the "system" in Wipe menu deletes?

Sent from my One X using Tapatalk 2

"System reboots on Sense" is almost always "out of date firmware".
You need to flash a firmware.zip for Jellybean ROM's.
There is one floating about in the ViperXL thread that contains a few things you need and avoids things like hboot 2.14 etc.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1868236
"WiFi Partition Updates".
The other way to do it is to get a first round 3.17/3.18 ota and flash the firmware.zip in RUU mode.
I say first round as many carriers are now onto their second 3.17 and they are not complete firmware.zip and lack many of the firmware files.
The first round ones are all complete.

Well tell me your tweaks or kernel or whatever you use cause I get 7-10 hours normally

No tweaks. I just use greenify to nullify any wake locks and disable any radios I'm not using.
I get about 16 hours checking texts, listening to tunein radio to and from work.
Web surfing. About 3-4 hours screen on.

Yeah I think im a more heavy user any ways will install greenify and flash that jacob rom ... any cpu governors? or just on demand

I just use on demand. Though I have used smartass v2 and Wheatley in the past which also yielded good results.
I only use the Jacob kernel for swipe to wake, otherwise I would probably use stock.

Hi, thanks for your reply My screenshot shows that in less than 2 hours, my battery went from 80% to less than 20%.. I have tried to reflash a fresh trick droid ROM. The only difference is that my battery life lasts a bit longer but it's still no big deal.. My battery life drains completely in 8 hours (even in idle mode !)
By 'wipe everything' you mean wipe the system also ? and no, I am not S-OFF.

No. A kernel is different than a ROM. Here is a link for a different sense based kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886010
I'm guessing the instructions are in the thread, but if not this is what you do.
1. Extract the boot.img
2. Place it in your folder that had fastboot 3. Boot into fastboot and type fastboot flash boot boot.img
Sorry those are quick instructions but I'm typing from my phone.

If you not familiar or comfotable with fastboot you can download Flash GUI from Play store. Once you have downloaded the Kernel use flash GUI to select the file, flash and reboot.
Its the easiest and quickest option, and just incase you ask you dont need S-Off to use Flash GUI

Thank you very much for your reply. I went on the link provided but it's a tutorial to root, unlock bootloader etc.. I didn't found any link
to download a Kernel

if battery low and cant flash use this =)

ok guys first sry for the bad english i try my best
if you have a broken android system on your device and cant flash a recovery/rom because your battery is to low...... use this here
1. download laden.rar
2. extract the file laden.bat
3. copy the file laden.bat in your fastboot folder ( e.g c:\Android\) and you need the newest sdk-tool
4. boot your phone in bootloader and take fastboot usb ( power+vol-)
5. double click on laden.bat
6. now you battery will be load
7. maybe you must wait few hours you need ~3900mV for flash recovery
you need a unlocked bootloader

What is this?

Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

It doesn't trick anything so much as essentially give you a sort of... running meter? of how much charge you have, then resets it to gain a bit more trickle. Seems like a stupidly slow way to get trickle charge, but if for some reason you've decided to use a recovery or similar that won't let you charge while its running, then this should net you a very slow charge. As mentioned though by pretty much everyone, TWRP renders this as unnecessary, as it can charge while doing whatever in recovery.
