+1 to 4EXT - by far the best featured, best supported and most stable recovery for the DS.
4ext for sure!
Nice, seems like i will keep 4ext

I have ClockworkMod Touch Recovery and really like it. I keep seeing 4EXT mentioned now though. Why is it better? If my recovery works fine, is there a reason to change?

4EXT has more options and IMO is more user friendly

4ext touch for me... way better than others...!!
+1 for 4EXT
4EXT all day!

4EXT.. coupled that with recovery control, and you get one of the, if not the most powerful recovery system for your device.. And it's cheaper than CWM system..
for me 4EXT touch still the best.
since it help me from "emmc fried" issue :good:

Anything... helpful? It's fine saying it has more options, but are there any that you actually regularly use that make it beat CWM?

Flash it and check yourself. Would take not more than 10 minutes. Also there is a complete list of features in the dedicated thread.

Do no use the power button to select anything. Use the track pad, like you'd be selecting something in the phone, while it's up and running.
Try using ext4 recovery.

Get the app, free or paid. It will allow you to flash 4ext recovery.

Please guys, this isn't about CWR or Ext4. This is a different issue..... The [OP] is pressing the power button to select his options. Where the track pad is needed.
Off topic but why use ext4 over CWM?

Maybe he will try an alternative now. There's more than one way to skin a cat.

ext4 gives more options and more info about your phone, but overall, they're pretty much the same...
oh yeah, and ext4 can support themes as well...
In cwm, use trackpad to select things. I think you're using the power button.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
I was using the power button
Well that was kinda noobish
I didn't know you had u use the track pad...while we are at it, whats ext4? like how is it different from clockwork?
Another ?
Majorly off topic here but, what would u guys suggest for a ROM...DARKSIDE?

4ext gives more options, and shows more info in recovery, like what rom you're running, and battery %
also, it supports themes which is nice
on a side note: i would recommend RCMix3D. it's GOOD
What is the best recovery? I know most rooms use revolutionary but what are the peeks of the other ones and why not stick with clock work? I tried figuring it out but don't know.

devs are using more 4ext cause it gives you options to install engines and what not
4EXT has a great UI and is really easy to use.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using XDA App
I've been a clockwork fan for a while, but it took all of 12 seconds to make me happy that I switched to 4EXT. It's REALLY easy to use.
It also shows battery % and the time in recovery. If something is taking a while that can be really handy to know that your battery is running down before you start a flash process. It's no fun is the battery dies in the middle.

What are engines? And what is this 4ext touch thing I hear about? Can you use the touch screen in the recovery? That would be great.
Btw thanks to everyone who replied. I was considering switching but wasn't sure if I should.

I think engines as in the Sony Bravia one? So basically Devs can give you the option while flashing, to select many options and add-ons, for example I just flashed InsertCoin 4.4.1 and halfway through it asked if I wanted to have a 1.5ghz overclock or add BeatsAudio. And Yes, it is touch screen making it a lot easier, as you can imagine!

Thank you to everyone, you guys helped alot. I was skeptical at first but Im gonna give 4ext a try.
4EXT is the best, I use the 4EXT Touch!
4EXT is compatible with clockworkmod, btw. You can restore any backups using 4EXT that were made with clockworkmod, and roms that work with clockworkmod will work with 4EXT. 4EXT is actually based upon the clockworkmod code base.
Iam using cwm recovery and i read that someone want to change from cwm to 4ext .what is the differnce between both of them ? does 4ext better than cwm ?
NO difference both do the same thing I think that 4ext has more updates and looks more user friendly but you can just change the theme
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA
4ext was originally based on cwm source code but has since been heavily amended and greatly improved, it was first to have touch only recovery and in my opinion is better, for this device in gets updated more often
Swyped from my Desire S using XDA Premium
Yeah I'm a big fan of 4ext touch. Previously used cwm. If recovery is something you hardly use I wouldn't recommend the upgrade, but obviously if you use recovery a lot I'd recommend the switch
Sent from my Desire Saga using xda premium
Think of 4EXT as an upgrade of CWM with more (new) features. And now has support for touch. All those asides the fact that it gets regular (read as "frequent") updates. I used to be a CWM loyalist but I really don't remember when the lines of loyalty got eroded *grins*.
yes am using recovery alot so how do i upgrade to 4ext what is the best wat to do it or any guide ?

Twrp or cwm touch? Also does cwm touch 5.8.3.1 (something like that) have the dead battery problem thing....where If my phone die I'm screwed
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using Tapatalk 2
I would like to know this answer too.
I currently use CWM and have had no issues, as a matter of fact, I think I'm a lucky one because i can flash boot.img files and radios just fine in CWM without using fastboot, and most people say that is only possible with TWRP.
But I would like to know about the CWM dead battery issue.

Well, once you're s-off you should install a custom recovery so you could install custom roms. I suggest 4Ext recovery (see my signature for the link) . After that you should Nandroid (e.g complete backup) you phone through the recovery. It will create a large file in your SD card which contains a full backup of your phone. Later you can install whatever rom you wish. I suggest you begin with Android Revolution HD - it looks like stock but it contains latest kernels, mods and tweaks.
