[tutorial] flash cwm recovery on karbonn smart tab 1 - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

hello all,
this recovery is not ported by me, xda's senior member fun_ have ported this to many devices, and we using the one which is compatible with paladin, many many thanks to him, a link to original thread is here
requirements:-
1. a rooted phone, you can root your tab here
2. cwm recovery image which you can get here
steps:-
1. open file manager which can have root access
2. go to system and rename recovery.cpio.img to recovery.cpio.img.bak
3. put downloaded recovery in /sdcard
4. open terminal emulator
5. type su
6. type "inand_flash_image recovery /mnt/sdcard/recovery.cpio.img" (if you have put it in flash then replace sdcard with flash)
7. then boot into recovery by holding menu and power button together or by typing "reboot recovery" in terminal emulator
how to control recovery:-
# power button is used to select options
# menu button will take you up
# home button will get you down when pressed
some notes you should keep in mind:-
1. back button do not work in recovery
2. never try the key test option else you will get stuck
3. backup do not work for boot, xboot, mbr areas
4. do not flash any rom available for paladin, basic etc. devices (or you will have a hard bricked tablet)
a simple step to enable on-screen back button
as soon as you booted into recovery, press menu then home then again menu, a message will appear saying enabled ( can be done in every screen)

dude i followed ur steps, used root explorer to rename to bak, and then tried, i get kcrc32 file size not same. and then when i boot to recovery the whole screen goes berzerk with curtain falls and doesn't do anything. i renamed the bak file into normal and flashed it and got the old recovery.. could you tell me what im doing wrong? used your recovery.cpio.img 3.5mb file in my sdcard... doesnt work..
rooted karbonn smart tab

kcrc32 not same is normal
did the terminal flash the recovery 2 times
like:-
kcrc32 not same
then a hex address
flashing from /mnt/sdcard
kcrc32 not same
then a hex address
flashing from /mnt/sdcard
if you get something like above then it is flashed properly

yup i got it twice, kcrc32 not same.
then i entered reboot recovery. thats when the screen goes all curtainfall like a crash, and recovery doesn't load. i had to use the reset pin and power button to turn on the tab again.. perhaps the img is not compatible with my tab?
btw mine is Karbonn Smart Tablet 2.
http://ncarry.nimbuzz.com/karbonn/product.php?product_id=2212
but when i purchased, it came with android 4.0 ics. everything else is same as in that page..

it is different
and I think that's why recovery is not booting

any suggestions mate? perhaps another ainol tab is similar to karbonn st2?

What if there is no "recovery.cpio.img" file in the system folder? This is after having root permissions...nothing has been done otherwise. I do not have a recovery file to rename and am unsure if it should still go in the system folder or not. It doesn't even have a file extension (I had to transfer it to my laptop just to check, and there's no .img or .zip...nothing.)
Also I keep getting the following message in terminal emulator when attempting to run the command:
sh: inand_flash_image: not found. The image file is in the /mnt/sdcard/Download folder. The full instance is:
[email protected]:/ $ su
[email protected]:/ # inand_flash_image recovery /mnt/sdcard/Download/recovery.cpio.img
sh: inand_flash_image: not found

Any help?

Need Help rooting and Flashing on Sprint?

Hello. I am sick from school today and decided to make a thread to help out some people.
DOWNLOADS ARE BELOW(AT THE BOTTOM!!!)
All of these steps are posted on TheUnlockr.com in a Video but The video is for the GSM version. The difference is just the recovery image. (http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-root-your-htc-hero-in-one-click/)
Ok lets get started.
This method works on all Sprint phones with updates. I am not sure how long this will last unpatched.
First YOU HAVE TO HAVE ADB WORKING!!!
Download my zip file if you do not want to download the entire SDK.
1)After it is downloaded, extract the files to C:\Windows\System32\
(you can copy and past the file-path)
2) Now pickup your phone and go into Settings-Applications and Enable Unknown Sources then from there go into Development and make sure that USB Debugging is enabled.
3) Now connect your phone to your computer and open up command prompt (Start-Run(or search) cmd.exe.
4)When it is open type: ADB Devices.
You should see your'r phone's serial.
Now download flashrec-1.1.3-20091107-2.apk (the download is below)
1) Copy the file to your sdcard.
2) Download any File Manager from the android market.
3) Go to your Sdcard in the file manager app on your phone.
4) Press flashrec-1.1.3-20091107-2.apk
Let it install.
5) When it is complete, go to your apps drawer and open the Recovery Flasher app.
My method requires you to have a recovery image before root.
6) In the recovery flasher app, Press Backup Recovery Image
7) Let it work. You may have to try twice for Success.
8) Now Mount your phone back on the computer and replace the recovery-backup.img with the recovery-backup.img on this thread(MAJOR thanx to Amon_RA)
9) Now unmount your phone and go back into the Recovery Flasher app on your phone.
10) Now press restore and let it flash recovery-RA-heroc-v1.2.3.img(Amon_RA's Sprint custom recovery image)
YOU NOW HAVE A CUSTOM RECOVERY IMAGE!!! WOOT WOOT
the work is still not done.
Download the Superuser.zip(http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=211569&d=1249225060 or in the downloads below) and extract it to your Sdcard
Now go into your new recovery image (power off the phone and then power it on by holding the Power and Home buttons)
Connect your phone to a computer and run command prompt.
IN COMMAND PROMPT TYPE:
Code:
adb shell
mount /sdcard
mount /system
cp /sdcard/su /system/bin/
chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
cp /sdcard/Superuser.apk /system/app/
reboot
(you can copy and past the code into command prompt from the thread)
Download the Better Terminal Emulator app from the market and type:
Code:
$ su
if you get a
Code:
#
then...YOU NOW HAVE ROOT!!
now you can install custom ROMs and root-required apps

Here's my backup
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5ALHYN80
You must be rooted (I assume z4root or universal android root works)
then either using terminal (grab terminal app from market) or using adb.
Grab the recovery.img and drop it into sdcard via usb or adb push.
Open terminal and type su and then flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
or if using adb, its adb shell and then su and then flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
Note: I am not the best at writing noobie guides but hopefully it helps
Thanks for this. I do not have mine yet( lol, just ordered it) but I donated for your work!
Thanks!
Anyone have a idea on how to get back into recovery? I have it installed but have tried holding every button to get me back and nothing kinda sucks since I have been testing new mods for this and cant get to my backup because the first shot at the mod was a fail.
I was able to get clockwork installed thanks to you. Do you know of any images that are out for the 7015?

Aside from stock(rooted) dump, there is nothing, I'll work with havic to get a rooted dump with google apps(market mostly) working correctly.
Besides that there is nothing else from my end for now. I personally don't like telechip tablets, bad experience from a gentouch :X
Also telechip company are retards and don't release kernel source, it'd help developers optimize a 2.1 rom and also be able to port kernel to a newer one for 2.2
I can see that this model gained popularity this black Friday. We are just now starting to see android tablets hit " Joe User ". I think that the telechip tabs will become popular so long as the price is on point. Thanks for all you do.
what exactly is this recovery for?
does installing this offer me additional features, or is it merely what we would restore to in case of disaster?

For now it is a good way to backup your unit so that if you screw it up you can go back. In the future people will make images for it. Hopefully someday android 2.2
Which version of flash_image tool is needed to flash this recovery or is the tool stock on the tablet?
EDIT: figured it out. stock. Looking through the dump now =)

If you try and recover from the backup that is in the link you may or may not get a error.The error is md5 mismatch. So the recovery fails to install.
What needs to be done is need to have busybox installed then shell in and run the following commands.
This has to be ran from the dir. that contains the backup files.
Which will more than likely be similar to this
/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-12-01.20.41.18
#busybox md5sum -c nandroid.md5
boot.img: OK
cache.img: OK
data.img: OK
recovery.img: OK
system.img: OK
# reboot recovery
reboot recovery
Once in clockwork then run a recovery.
If you have a Issue let me know I will try my best to get you some answers.

where are you when you type that? does it not find the flash_image binary or the .img?
Worked for me
I got it working by doing the following.
1. Download and installed "Android Terminal Emulator" on to the device.
2. Download and installed Z4Root 1.3.0.apk from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953
3. Run it and pressed the "Permanent Root" button. It took a bit and it auto rebooted.
4. Place the recovery.img on the root of my sd card. (Razor950's recovery.img is from post#1 on this thread.)
5. Opened "Android Terminal Emulator".
6. Entered the following.
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
7. Locked everything up for about 5 min and it went back to # prompt when it was done.
8. I powered off the device.
9. After it turned off I pressed and held the back button then pressed the power button. Kept holding it until you see clockworkMod v2.5.1.3. (If it says Android it's too late.)
I have a question myself what is sd-ext on clockwork? Also is there a way to do a selective backup? Just system with no data?
Thanks.
Thanks for your procedure, will try it when I receive my tablet.
Regarding your question about sd-ext, it's a partition of your sdcard. One will be in fat32 and the other in ext2 or ext3. Usually ext2 is used when you have app2sd or 12sd+. The purpose of this is to have more apps in install by installing them on your ext partition instead of internal memory. I use it for my HTC desire (smartphone)
Regarding your second question, I don't know anyway of doing a backup without data but pretty sure it's possible, for example, if you go in your Android do a factory reset. reboot in recovery then do your backup. Not sure if there's another way to do it
Yezir!

Can you see the recovery.img on your sd card from a file manger app like Astro? If so when your in the terminal can you cd to /sdcard? If so can you enter ls -l recovery.img? Check the size to make sure it is all there.
I have anther question myself.
At cobyusa.com/?p=prod&prod_num_id=10498&pcat_id=1013 there is a firmware update. in the update.zip in system in the build.prop file i see a line that says "ro.build.version.incremental=eng.enzo.20101125.200217". I notice that the build number on the device says "MID7015 1.6a_20101105-2". Looks like they may have changed somethings but not sure what. What would be bet best way to figure out what they changed?
I tried to run it from clockwork and i get
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "tcc8900" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "tcc8900"
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
To install this update would I just have to unroot my device? Not sure how to look what the current ro.build.product is now.
Thanks.

[ROOT] G2X Gingerbread 2.3.3. stock ROM with flashable zip in Clockworkmod Recovery

Update on 9/11/11: Thanks to phburks there is now a flashable zip to root the G2X stock rom. He figured out that the update-binary we were using was not compatible with the G2X. He found the compatible binary that allows us to create flashable zip files. Hats off to phburks. This is an unsigned zip and you should not be required to toggle signature verification. Of course the files required to root the phone (su and Superuser.apk) were created by Chainsdd.
There are two flashable zip packages. The first one roots the G2X. You simply flash it with Clockworkmod Recovery. The second zip unroots the phone for those who wish to unroot their device for whatever reason.
After rooting go to the Android Market and get the Busybox installer referenced below. Use that to install and keep Busybox updated.
Root Zip for G2X: http://www.mediafire.com/?92qpr525ztblh8w
Unroot Zip: http://www.mediafire.com/?2vr7cmgg7qcdn14
HOW TO ROOT
1. Install latest Clockworkmod Recovery using NVFlash, if you haven’t already done so.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847
2. Download the root zip package referenced above.
3. Put the zip package on your internal or external sd card on your G2X. Do not unzip the package.
4. Turn off phone and boot into Clockworkmod Recovery by pressing volume down and power and hold until the fancy LG (second one) appears.
5. Select install zip from sd card. Select and flash the root zip package. Note: You navigate in Clockwordmod Recovery by using the volume keys up and down and commit the action by pressing the power button.
6. Reboot your phone. You are now rooted.
NOTE: THE FOLLOWING BELOW IS OBSOLETE. IT IS LEFT FOR HISTORICAL PURPOSES ONLY.
Original post made on 9/9/11:
I wanted to run the stock Gingerbread ROM and wanted to root it without flashing a new ROM. I was able to succesfully do it and the instructions are below. I was attempting to make an update.zip to do this but it kept getting a "status 0" error. The original superuser zip by ChainDD also gets this error. So I decided to try and root it using ADB commands while running Clockworkmod Recovery. Here is how I did it. If someone can help me get an update.zip that will install without error in Clockworkmod Recovery to make this easier for people to install it would be much appreciated.
1. Download my G2X root package that includes necessary ADB files (Android SDK install not required) and unzip the contents. The package contains the latest versions of “su” and “Superuser.apk”.
http://www.mediafire.com/?6rdrdfxvdoq9nkv <download link for my root G2X package>
2. Install latest Clockworkmod Recovery using NVFlash, if you haven’t already done so.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847
3. Boot into Clockworkmod Recovery by holding down volume down and power until fancy LG logo shows (about ten to fifteen seconds). This is not the first one displayed when the phone powers up. Wait for recovery to start. Just to be safe perform a backup of your device’s current state.
4. Using the recovery menu scroll down to “mounts and storage,” press the power button, scroll down to “mount system” and press the power button.
5. Now that your system is mounted plug your phone into your computer (let drivers install if you have not done before – requires LG USB driver package).
http://bit.ly/qyoAxY <shortened link for direct download from LG server>
6. Open a command prompt windows on your computer. In the command prompt window change to the directory to where you unzipped the G2X root package.
7. Issue the following ADB commands. Do not type the the text in the brackets <>. That is just information on what the command is doing.
adb kill-server
<make sure no conflict with another version of adb server running>
adb devices
<checks to see if phone is connected to adb>
adb push system /system
<make sure you type a space before “/system”>
adb shell chmod 6755 /system/bin/su
adb shell ln -s /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su
<make sure you type a space before “/system/xbin/su ”>
8. System is now rooted. You can unplug the USB cable now.
9. Now in Clockworkmod Recovery choose “unmount system.”
10. Go back to the main menu and choose “reboot system now.”
11. If you want busybox (some root programs such as Titanium Backup require it) on your system go to the Android Market after rebooting your phone and search on “Busybox.” Download and run the Busybox installer by Stephen (Stericson). When you are prompted allow it to have superuser permissions.
http://bit.ly/qIAoXZ <link to Android Market page for Busybox>
12. You are now rooted with a working busybox installation.
13. It is a good idea to go back into recovery and make a backup of your newly rooted system before you start installing and running programs that obtain superuser permissions.
14. Enjoy the power!

This is for people who have been using the phone after applying the update and don't want to start from scratch again. This lets you just root the phone without needing to flash a rom and format the system.

That's a Command Prompt windows on your computer. The easiest way is to open the desired folder in Windows Explorer and then click on the address bar. Highlight the entire location and copy it. Then in your command prompt windows type "cd" a space, right click and paste the copied location and hit return. You will now be in the correct folder in your command prompt windows.
Thank you for quick reply

Thanks jboxer, work like charm....
but when i did back up they said error can not back up image data ???
whats wrong???
never mind, i found out i run out of space on my sd card
@jboxer, I figured out the flashable zip. Just tested it on an unrooted 2.3.3 installation and it worked perfectly. I PM'd you a link to the zip. Please add it to your OP if you'd like. There's no need for me to create a separate thread.

Thanks to phburks for the good work in figuring out why our update zip packages were being rejected by Clockworkmod Recovery. We now have flashable zips to root the G2X (works on stock GB rom) and to unroot it. They are listed in the first post that I have edited.

[Q] Madoco CWM 4.0.0.9 back up files not working?

I used the emulator method.... >>
1. Download Recovery 4.0.0.9 from Modaco's website
2. Using Root Explorer, find the file in your downloads folder on the sdcard.
3. Paste the recovery img file into your phone's /data/local folder.
4. In terminal emulator, first type "su" and then type "'dd if=/data/local/doubleshot.clockworkmod.4.0.0.9.modaco.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21" and let it transfer the recovery file.
its goes thru no problem ...everything seems to go ok i can boot into recovery but none of the back up files i create work...i cleaned out 3gigs of space on my sdcard so it wouldn't run out of space during the back up process but still none of the back up files work....had to use a back up file i made with Revolutionary 4.0.0.8....
any thoughts on what the problem could be?

If you are stuck on the splash screen, the first thing to try is to wipe the cache and dalvik-cache from the recovery menu. A full wipe may also be required, although I would not recommend it until you try the suggestions below.
Use ADB (first install SDK)
HTML:
adb devices
HTML:
adb reboot
P6200

Bootloops are mainly caused because system files interfering with each other which causes instability and/or crashes at the boot sequence.*To find the cause of a bootloop you have to think about what you did before getting the bootloop.Choose one of the following reasons that caused the bootloop for you and try out its solution.- After flashing a new rom*If you flash a new (base)rom with odin your /data will be kept. This means your old dalvik-cache will be used for the new system files which would result in a bootloop, to fix this problem:1. Start your phone in CWM Recovery2. Go to Advanced3. Choose "Wipe dalvik-cache"4. Now go to "Mounts & Storage"5. Choose "Wipe /cache"6. Reboot your phoneif the problems still exists after doing that and you're sure it's not related to the rom, then you need to do this:1. Start your phone in CWM Recovery2. Now go to "Mounts & Storage"3. Choose "Wipe /data"4. Choose "Wipe /cache"5. Reboot your phone.
ADB can be used to access the phone while booting, be aware that some bootloops make it unable to use ADB since they do not go further then the samsung logo.*The only tricky part about using ADB with bootloops is that you have to do it on the right time, this is just after the Galaxy logo, so just when the bootanimation starts. The easiest way to enter your phone in this part is using a batch script that monitors the state of your device and connects directly when possible.
Using the original cwm zip is the easiest way, since the zip is already created for you, you only need to replace the files with the original rom files. You can get those files from the deodex packages for baseroms which are posted on the forums. If you are using an odexed ROM, you can get your files from system.img.ext4 (open the baserom: *.tar.md5 with Winrar and extract system.img.ext4)Now you can open system.img.ext4 with "DiskInternals Linux Reader". browse to the app/framework directory and extract the needed files from the image file.Once you got the same files as present in the original CWM zip you can easily drag em into the archive, then choose "store" as compression level. Now finally you need to put it on your sdcard and install it.If you don't have an external sdcard or you can't reach your internal sdcard (which is very likely when you have a bootloop), you can use ADB to push the zip to your phone, read about how to use ADB ..
HTML:
@echo off
cd /d %~dp0
echo.
echo Waiting for device...
adb wait-for-device
echo.
adb -d shell stop
adb push mycwmfix.zip /sdcard/mycwmfix.zip
adb reboot recovery
This script will wait for the device to become ready, when it's ready it freeze the device, so the script has more time to push the file (instead of keep rebooting). Then it will push the specified cwmfix zip to your sdcard, and after that it will reboot in recovery so you can install the cwm fix you made.
