feel free to test my first rom ;-)
this would be easier to "de-sense" cause it´s allready deodexed. so you needn´t delete so much stuff ;-)
a light version will follow the nexts days, which will be "de-sensed" and have a custom launcher like ADW or LP

Hey, today i unlocked mine with an xtc clip.
Then I flashed the unsecured Boot Image. I hope it is called so .
After that worked successful, i rooted it with SuperOneKlick.
Maybe this works for you too.

Any chance you can get in touch with the developer of this as there seems to be a very annoying bug.
Everytime i include:
format CACHE or
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p27", "/cache");
the recovery will not flash the ZIP. It will always give a STATUS 1 error.
So i have to manually format cache and run my ZIPS.
Thanks.

anybody successfully tried to revert on stock recovery?
fastboot says "FAILED (remote: not allowed)", and with cwm recovery it's impossible to try new OTA...

hey dude,
i ported the recovery together with a friend. so i´m your man ;-)
i never noticed that there is a problem with formating cache partition, cause i don´t touch it with my updater-script.
so first question:
why you will add that to your updater-script? me for myself prefere the way of wiping my phone manually. and that works very well with CMR. i also tested it in the mount/partition menu.
i would not like it, when a script wipes stuff and i did not know about.
i only use format for system in my full update.zip´s. in updates for my rom i did not wipe anything.
second question: did you know that cache partition is always mounted when recovery starts? perhaps thats the problem.
regards

those fastboot commands only works with an ENG S-Off bootloader. which we dont have. we have SHIP S-Off... there are differences between those both.
our bootloader can everything the ENG can with fastboot commands. we have to use a zip file to flash things like recovery or splash.
you have to add your recovery backup img into my PG88IMG-unsecured_bootimg.zip file from this post [BOOT] Root for S-Off with unsecured Boot Image rename it to PG88IMG.zip and add your recovery.img into that zip file and remove the boot.img file.
than put the file on the root of your sdcard and reboot into bootloader.
the file will be flashed automaticly.
after reboot your phone, rename the file again to something else, cause every time you are in bootloader and this file is named PG88IMG.zip on your sdcard thhe bootloader will try to flash it.
just a little tipp at the end: you can add every img file into this zip. system and data img files from nandroid backups are working too ;-)
regards

Thank you!
I'll try it next time, i'll need it
But i've managed to flash it through flash_image from this link:

Could you PLEASE give me a short (or long ) description how to install the ota?
No idea what to do with the linked code...
EDIT Extracted the boot.img from ota and copoed it to PG88IMG.zip - restart - run ota-update -> fail
EDIT2 I'm an idiot: instead of boot.img it is a great idea to try it with recovery.img *LOL*

You just have to replace clockworkmod ecovery with stock one.
I've taken it from OTA downloaded.
It contains file firmware.zip inside, which contains recovery.img as well.
You can flash it with tool flash_image (http://www.thinkthinkdo.com/trac/project1/raw-attachment/wiki/vision_utilities/flash_image.zip)
Just put it somewhere to device, where you can run it (for instance/data/local/bin/, /system/bin/ if remounted to rw, /sdcard if remounted to exec)
and run from device or adb shell like%
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
after that, you can reboot to hboot, check out that you do not have cwm recovery anymore, boot to android and install OTA as usual from menu...

does the recovery also do a backup of the radio?
(my wifi is broken sinve ota update - and I'm an stock recovery now, so can't test at the moment)

Cache being mounted or unmounted isnt the issue.
I can wipe cache manually but automatting it in the script seems the break the whole process.
Its good for testing and having a fresh install.
Lets android re-build everything.
Take from Clockworks How to:
wipe cache partition
Wipes the cache partition of the device to clear all the data accumulated there over use. This is often used before installing a new ROM, app, kernel or any similar mod via recovery

Guide to make a2sd work in custom roms

hello.i open this thread to show you how to solve a2sd not working on custom roms so you people can use your favorite rom with all the features and rom developers can continue developing of their rom and make them more and more better.
First of all the reason why a2sd dont work and ext partition doesnt mount:
for these feautures and others that dev gives as with his rom,the kernel ramdisk is modified (by xda kitchen or "by hand").so if this boot.img is not flashed into your phone,those feautures wont work.every custom rom have her boot.img into the flashable rom.zip.the thing that our rom creators and devs dont know(cause all phones are not the same) is that the boot.img in the zip doesn flash!.our phone cant flash boot.img from recovery and the reason is because in this phone kernel and recovery are in the same partition and not separately partition like most phones.
The solution:
REMEMBER THAT YOU DO IT WITH YOUR OWN RISK!
its just very simple:the only thing you have to do is to flash the boot.img that comes with your rom and the only way to do that succesfull is with Odin.(this ofcourse will give the custom bin counter 1 up because its a modified and not stock kernel).also have in mind that you have to flash it once.if for any reason you want to reflash your rom,you just do wipe data etc and reflashing the rom.zip.its not necesary to reflash the kernel(boot.img) again.its still there and will only change if you flash another boot.img or stock firmware with Odin.
So i will give two options.
1.download my PDA_S5360_kernel.tar from TermaRomGR threadhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520167(the mods in all of these kernel are about the same).flash it with Odin in pda field (first try without wipe anything or reflashing stock firmware first.just boot in download mode,flash with odin and reboot,it should work ok.DONT FORGET TO BACKUP YOUR ROM FIRST!JUST IN CASE!).reboot may take more time dont worry.when phone is on your ext partition should be mounted.you can try with terminal simulator:
su
a2sd check
if everything is ok you can remove your dalvik cache to your sd if you want for more internal memory free space:
su
a2sd cachesd
the phone will reboot.it will late to reopen just be patient and then your internal memory will be almost empty.but have in mind that this partition is not as fast asthe internal memory so some apps or games maybe slow a bit.
2.the other option is to flash the kernel(boot.img) that come with your custom rom.how to do that (thanks to Doky):
copy the boot.img that is inside the zip of the rom you are using.
download my PDA_S5360_kernel.tar
find in web the program total commander for windows
open t commander and in left window navigate to my PDA_S5360_kernel.tar file and get into it.in the right window find the boot.img of your rom.drag it and drop it to the left window so it replace the boot.img into the .tar file with yours.its ready.just flash it with Odin.
Some important things too that i notice from my experiments:
with busybox 1.18 your rom will not boot after nove dalvik cache to sd
it will work nice with 1.17 but its not suitable for people who want to run v6 script.for those who want to run v6 you must download busybox instaler from market and install v1.19.2.if after that you have problems with wifi try another version (1.19.3 or 1.19.4).and report back what works ok and what not so all people together can find the best setup.
Please tell to the devs of your roms to read this thread so they learn about the solution to this problem so they can create even better and better roms

I love you. I'll try this tomorrow.

Why do i have SD Card Remove Problem then when i boot back i was in the Welcome Screen where my info of google account is being ask. I skipped it then check the settings, my account was just there still. Also having this Turning off by itself problems. This was just started when i begin using a2sd supported ROMS. But when i'm just on stock or non-a2sd roms it work fine. Maybe its the boot.img?

Oh, so I can take a stock firmware from Doky73's thread and modify it thru xda kitchen and change the kernel to include just init.d support (I kind of hate a2sd at the moment)? What about ext4 file system support? Is this possible?
By xda kitchen you mean the one by dsixda, right?

just like to ask if a2sd's low memory setting would conflict with [email protected] scripts?
coz after installing a2sd in my phone with [email protected] script, i sometimes notice that memory usage would reach 240+?

1.yes its necesary to have an ext2 or ext3 partition.you can create it with skin1980 CWM recovery in advance/partition sdcard.a partition 500Mb is enough.(before do it backup everything from your sdcard to your pc because this procedure will erase everything in your sdcard.)
2.for Odin google it Odin3-v1.85.Here is how to do it:
1. you put my tar in pda field and the other remain empty(check only "Auto reboot" and "F.reset time")
2. Now turn off your Samsung Galaxy Y (just for make sure is completely off, remove the battery for a few sec and put that back)
3. Press Volume[-] + Home + Power to boot in Download Mode
4. Hold the buttons until a warning screen with choise show up.
5. Select Continue (Volume[+]), then it`s go to download mode
6. Connect the cellphone (via USB cable) to PC, wait until ODIN detect the device.
7. Click Start
8. Wait until ODIN give feedback respon PASS
it`s mean the flashing proccess is complete. Samsung Galaxy Y will auto reboot.
9. unplug the USB cable from PC/Laptop

Thanks bro, I have 2 questions more,
before flash your PDA is it necessary to go back to stock rom?
Currently I'm using V6 with busy box v1.18 on hybrid2.1, should I change it to v1.19.2?

Thats not recovery problem. Once charge the Phone upto 100% allow two cycles of complete battery drain and analyze battery life.

As of now I'm using a deodexed modified cooked stock ROM. I have not ventured into custom Roms. Will be definitely checking out the best one and port it but I can do that only in free time like Saturday or sunday. Just tell me if you know a good one.

Almost.
I can use either internal SD or external SD at any given point of time. There is some issue with mounting card on /storage/sdcard1. I can mount either on /storage/sdcard0.

can u make TRWP for e3 @OP

We need twrp from a similar device to port it. Other issue with twrp is the size of the recovery. It is bigger than the partition space alloted for the recovery on the device. We would require other tool to increase the partition size of recovery first to enable flashing the the bigger image. So its not straight forward as cwm in our case.

Found out the issue. The recovery is showing a different device vendor (Huawei) and the original boot.img is showing another vendor (HTC).
I had to white-list the vendor in linux (udev and ~/android/adb_usb.ini)
Now it is working fine.

i'm on clone stock kk rom with cwm v6.0.2.8 now. i wanna have twrp v2.8 and also root. how best to go about it?
does your op imply "if twrp v2.7 is used, root is not lost"? - on rooted device having any other custom recovery.
and, what if i flash your twrp v2.8 and then flash supersu zip file from here? will i have proper root?
btw, can this be installed using flashify or mobileuncletools? or, is spftools procedure itself required?
suggest that you make the op clearer and noob-friendly. thanks.

Make sure you flash stock rom first before flashing this recovery! When i was using Q900, it used to give variety of errors! So always begin with clean flashed device! The error that i got frequently was E: cannot mount /Data bla bla.... Always ended up with mounting errors! Then came Shikar bro who ported the recovery and after which i developed the custom first custom ROM!

U cant root using 2.8 recovery.
sometimes if rom is not rooted then at end of flash it ask u to root, 2.8 cant do that but 2.7 can:good:.
u cant have 2.8 with root facility as size will exceed 6mb.
u can root device using any flashble root zip.
================================================================================================
For kitkat 4.4.2 the zip in link is not at all useful.
Also it cant be rooted with supersu provided in recovery
so if u wanna use 2.8 u cant use rooting within recovery.
if u wanna root ur 4.4.2 see this post method 8 definatly works.
also if u want supersu as root app head over to this post.
For recovery flashing I always prefer sp tool method which will work 100% and u dont have to bother about properly rooted device.
if u have rooted device flashify or mobileuncle tool should work.

Hi Avi, when i tried to flash the recovery via flashify my stock recovery is gone as well as the one which i flashed twrp also gone and currently my phone is running without recovery

Yes Sir,
I ported 2.8.2.0 but the size is 6.54mb way too much than recovery partition.
I am trying much hard for more than 6 mb partition which can boot in recovery.
Already bricked my device several times for the same.
But still only 6 mb recovery can boot.
NOw we have two options.
Compile new kernel with less size - source codes are needed
we have bq codes - but it may not work for our device - so i am much reluctant to take chance.
we need to compile new uboot.bin which can make booting in recovery of even 11mb size
again source code and compiling.
If anyone from ur side can help in compiling that would be great- as i am just beginner for it
u can get source code for BQ here.
Thank you.

any hope for latest version of twrp?
please see screenshots of twrp v2.8.0.0. the interface is not clear (highly pixelated). the actual display is worse than seen here. can anything be done about it?
does anyone know of any themes than work on twrp v2.8.0.0 for xolo q3000? the ones i tried didn't work although i chose the correct resolution.
also, what exactly does "repair or change file system" do?
my device gets connected as an mtp device and shows up as a separate device in "my computer". i mean, the sd cards do not get connected as separate usb drives.
i can open the device and see both my sd cards listed and also browse & carry out operations. but, any changes made are not reflected even after 'refreshing'.
if i click "disable mtp" as seen in the 3rd screenshot, will the disabling be temporary or permanent? will my sd cards get connected as separate usb drives?
i'd appreciate it if someone who has authentic knowledge about these matters responds with suggestions. thanks for any help.
btw, i hope @avi3230 is following this thread. maybe we can hope for ctr v3.0 kitkat for xolo q3000 soon.
edit: saw this thread only now . will try that and report :good:. please answer the queries in blue. thanks.

@m0han
TWRP 2.8.2.0 coming soon.
themes for 2.8.0.0
what exactly does "repair or change file system" do?
answer is here.
What's new in 2.7.1.0:
Add GUI option to change or repair file systems on individual partitions. The change is destructive so backup your data including internal sdcard first. This option should make it a little easier to migrate a device from ext4 -> f2fs, for instance. You will find this option under Wipe -> Advanced Wipe, then select only one partition and then press the Repair or Change File System button. If a developer has added f2fs support for your device and we don't have it in TWRP, please contact me via PM to arrange for it to be added.

MTP is also mentioned under 2.8.0.0
Over the course of the last year or so, bigbiff has worked to migrate various Java functions from Android's MTP implementation to bring you a fully C++ based MTP implementation that allows you to transfer files to both emulated storage and Micro SD cards. It's confirmed to work on various Nexus devices but we may have to make some changes on other devices to keep Windows happy. Windows is very picky about USB IDs and its drivers. We have tested it on Windows 7 and 8 as well as Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty. MTP is enabled by default, but we do toggle it off and on automatically during certain operations such as if you choose to wipe a storage partition. You can enable or disable MTP under the mount menu in TWRP. For more about what MTP is here.
Note: Due to a weird bug with our MTP setup, you cannot copy a zip file to the root of storage with Windows. You can change the .zip to something else like .txt and then copy it to the root and rename the file back to .zip once it's copied to the device. You can also copy the zip into any subfolder.
