[I9003] First attempt to get CWM running / boot image tools included

Hi Guys.
User "rb210" asked me to help porting CWM to I9003.
I've built it from sources and created a correct recovery.fstab with the partition layout of your device.
Since i'm not owning a I9003, i cannot do more for you. Sorry. :-(
Here are my tools to create a normalboot.img and a recovery.img based on stock kernel:
http://www.multiupload.com/5W80N6HOW2
Don't know if it's the right way, because it's very different compared to I9000.
CWM recovery binary is included at root/sbin and recovery/sbin folders.
Read teh README!
Good Luck

Thank you mate for helping us. It would be great, if it works on I9003. We appreciate your work for I9003. Hope now I9003 will have CWR running soon.

How do you proceed from here ?

I was going to post the exact same question, I'm a noob and I don't even know what I'm doing:

Yes, download mode will still be available. I bricked my phone 3-4 times last night while testing the PDA tarballs codeworkx built. In the end he gave me this PDA to restore my phone to normal.

I built it and test it.... doesn't work... the phone hangs on first logo and adb cant see the phone

Lets donate codeworkx for this, and help him buy this phone so that he can help us with recovery. We will need his help again when Gingerbread is released.

Restore the default image with the file I uploaded. Like I said, I tried some builds but I had to revert back to normal. This isn't working yet but it is a start.

I build from source a recovery.img that works... or so i think... now i'm gonna try with normalboot.img.. finger crossed

Can you provide brief explanation, how to compile this? Even I would like to try.

Please wait.... i compiled also normalboot.img in the same way but it doesn't work... maybe my recovery.img doesn't work.... so there's no need to explain you how to make mistake

Sorry repost.

I've done many tests, finally i can say that we must review the mkbootimg method.... if i unpack the stock kernel files and then i repack it doesnt work...

[Q] Clockworkmod recovery mode on stock rom

I don't want to flash a custom rom or kernel but i want clockworkmod recovery mode so i can install zips, wipe cache etc. Can someone please direct me to a post/thread that tells me how to do this including a download link. I know that i have to be rooted and thats all i know. Thanks you for your help and can you please link me to the developer of clockworkmod for our phone so i can ask him personally if he hasn't made a thread about it.

You could wait for rom manager as well. I think it has the option for installing CWM on stock!

You're right.
It's actually one of the first things I'm going to implement.
It does mean going back to stock, but I don't mind

{Guide} Rooting Galaxy R on version 4.0.4

This is how to root your Samsung Galaxy R running on ICS version 4.0.4
Step 1
Go over to http://androidsu.com/superuser/ and scroll down to ARM devices (2.0 – 4.1). Then you will see 3.2-RC2 under it is a link to the download, click it to start the download.
Step 2
Ounce you have downloaded it you want to put it onto the root of your SD card. You can do this by putting it onto your external SD card and copying it over to the root of your phone.
Step 3
Boot into CWMR. You can do this by shutting your phone down completely and ounce its shut off you hold down power and the volume Up button.
Step 4
After you boot into CWMR you want to install zip from SD card so hit the volume keys to move up and down and click install zip from SD card. Then you scroll down to where the Superuser zip file is and flash it.
Step 5
Finally, once you have flashed it you want to reboot your phone by going back to main menu and clicking reboot. Now your done!! Just wait for your phone to boot up and you have successfully rooted your phone!

How this is different from root recovery v4 posted earlier. Any difference between these two rooting methods ,please mention.

I rooted my mobile using this method... May be same but different file....

Hold both the buttons for at least couple of seconds. It works for me

Hi Vikram,
Thanks for your post..
Just a small correction in Step#4.
In order to go to CWMR, we need to press power.. and then press volume_Up and Home button simultaneously... and not Volume_Down..
I was following your instructions to the T.. and was not at all getting into CWMR mode.. as i thought for a second.. the hot keys combinations have changed..
