RECOVERY IMAGE for SU760 ICS leak build for P920
This is all based on wkpark's thread here but focused only for p920.
ClockWorkMod(6.0.1.5) and TWRP(2.2.2.1) images as flashable images, to be used after you installed WKPark's alternate bootloader using his root signature. then we get full recovery back working on top of ICS.
Instructions on how to install the recovery.

Download wkparks fastboot loader from here
and extract contents into a temp folder.
1a. follow his instructions on how to install device drivers then goto step 2 or
1b.
remove battery, attach usbcable between pc and mobile.
Install the omap4430 driver, when you see a device appearing in "devicemanager" named omap4430,
rightclick on it and install driver from the 7z download and look in folder usb_drv_windows for the device driver.
remember to be fast to rightclick as it wil disappear and re-appear often until driver is installed.
1c. pc will find and install driver at next mobile restart (which is some seconds after.
Download the modified x-loader.bin,u-boot.bin,boot.img from this post and extract content into the temp folder from step1 and put files into the files directory found there.
extract attached p920-2-twrp.zip to the files folder you find in your files directory in the temp folder
extract attached p920-3-cwm.zip to the files folder you find in your files directory in the temp folder
remove battery and disconnect usb cable from mobile.
enter the temp you extracted to at step1, and run start_fastboot and select "2" in the menu shown in the commandline console.
attach usb cable
wait for the "start_fastboot to show alot of details and show booting 2ndboot.
attach battery when the 2ndboot information shows
fastboot v0.5 should be shown with a grey LG logo on your mobile now. , if not, go back and follow steps again.
at this stage, it can happen that "fastboot" driver for "LG Cosmo" device is installing but cannot find a driver, so you need to update driver through device manager, and point to the drivers, where the omap4430 driver was located too and update it.
Now its time to flash to new files run the 3 commands (one by one, do not try to copy/paste all 3 lines) shown just below as shown.
execute: fastboot flash x-loader files\x-loader.bin
execute: fastboot flash u-boot files\u-boot.bin
execute: fastboot flash boot files\boot.img
Lastly time to flash your recovery,
execute: fastboot flash recovery files\cwm.img
or
execute: fastboot flash recovery files\twrp.img
you cannot flash both images, as its not possible to have both recoveries installed.

You can always boot into recovery by holding 3D-BUTTON + VOL-UP down while pressing power-button to turn on mobile (without any cables attached to pc or power).
NOTES:

- If you do happen to get a bootloop it has been mentioned now, that it can happen if you copy/paster fastboot commands into the commandline shell.
these steps do NOT change anything of your system or data. it is only the bootloaders and boot.img/recovery.img which will change for the ICS build.
- both recoveries got USB mount storage issues, you will have to transfer files to sdcard or internal memory through windows.
- IMPORTANT: do not try and restore boot.img partition (before this install) from your ICS backups, it will cause the mobile not to boot.
and you will have to do the fastboot steps flashing this boot.img again. (it is caused by the signature is no longer a match)

wkpark - for his incredible work on getting us a custom uboot (still signed but a big help) - we await the unsigned boot
milaq - for the initial work on recoveries for our devices and cwm/twrp is used as base in these 2 images attached.
xbsall - the original release of ICS for p920/su760 edition.

Here is an alternative:
- download p920-1.zip and unpack to a temp directory.
- download usb_drv_windows.zip and install the driver. This is done when you see "omap4430" appear for a few seconds in device manager, when you attach phone to pc using usb without battery inserted.
- when driver is installed, install one of the recoveries attached to post #1 and unpack to the temp directory too, and finally run "runme.bat" from the temp directory you unpacked. and follow guideline here.
- when you see the commandline information "wait 5 seconds", you re-insert the battery.
- When "fastboot v0.5" shows in the optimus 3D display, you might need to install the fastboot driver(device: LG Cosmo) as well also located in the same zip above where OMAP4430 is found.
- If you do not get the "fastboot v0.5" in the phone display, something went wrong. and you might need to double check that your device manager in windows also shows the "OMAP4430 FastBoot USB device"
Never mind, wainting for a fix. Thanks
sorry guys, my guide works fine and so does the TWRP image and getting into it. But problem is, it seems original recovery does a trick to reset the flag "booting into recovery". So problem now is that it keeps booting into recovery and it cannot boot normally if you get TWRP started once.
I flashed back the original recovery for now and it works fine, when i sign that image with the new signature as well. but not worth much
booting original recovery once and the flag is reset and normal boot is possible.
Ill dig into this and report back and upload a working image, when i figured out the workaround this sad behaviour.
First, thanks for the tutorial and for your work. I wanted to know if this tutorial could be installed boot.img compiled by myself.

yes, we can make custom boot.img as well with the solution he made. scripts and solution is posted in same thread mentioned in step1. i used it to create the recovery.img, but same goes for boot.img.
I hope u can find the solution for this. For some people like me, after we flash the bin, fls, root the device and use twrp. It just wont boot to recovery. So i hope this would work. But thanks again to xbsall for bringing ics to our device. At least now im on ics. Is there anyway i can use original recovery? So u can make a backup and restore if i need to reflash the ics bin again?
Thanks
Sent from my GT-P7500 using xda app-developers app
and it is working!!!!!
Finally got the continous reboot to recovery fixed!!!!
The images are bootable and do only reboot once into the recovery now.
the fix was to use some of the original binaries in the recovery so that mounts and binaries were started once.
So its all ok now.
I have also compiled a new CWM v6.0.1.5 from Recovery Builder clockworkmod, so its using latest release here, but it is not tested yet for full functionality.
This is nice. Thanks.

Thank you very much!! now it is late for me, but tomorrow i will follow your guide.
HELL YEAH! haha
HUGE THANKS, MAN!!! :victory: I was just about to flash the whole ROM again, just to make the TWRP work again :crying:
Im goin to start downloading and following the guide in a few min's.
I'll report as soon as im done with it :good:

im stuck on highways, but where, might sometime be a good question if you want to avoid it
you cannot get much help unless you give more, so that kinda ends here.
but it might just be that when the OMAP4430 driver is installed and it loads fastboot v0.5 menu, it could be that the "fastboot" driver also needs to be updated.
check your device manager and find any new android device, and refer to the drivers you got with the step1 package or from my post#2 (i believe it could be your LG Cosmo device)
hmm

you are not alone, its all those that do not understand the installation and wkpark's guide on using his tool. it is not that simple as just running an app. if drivers fail to install or you install the wrong driver, you never get fastboot opened, and if you never see fastboot menu on the phone when the tool starts and you insert battery as his guide says many things goes wrong.
but the instructions cannot be much more simple as they are, its 2 drivers its some steps in a command line to execute and thats pretty much it.
I will try it asap. I could go into fastboot mode last time so finger crossed. For those u have some problem going to fasboot mode try search the how to recover ur device to gb from xbsall. It works for me

Now its time to flash to new files run the 3 commands shown just below as shown.
fastboot flash x-loader files\x-loader.bin
fastboot flash u-boot files\u-boot.bin
fastboot flash boot files\boot.img
I could start fastboot with the grey logo and fastboot v0.5 on the top left of my device
when i type fastboot flash x-loader files\x-loader.bin
it says waiting for device
after i waited for 2-3 minutes the device just boot normally.
what did i do wrong?
thanks
edit:
i flashed all the command sucessfully
install rom manager
reboot into recovery and it boot loop
it only shows twrp logo and then reboot to lg logo
what should i do?
HOW TO INSTALL RECOVERY IMAGE WITH SUCCESS
I just installed it and it works as it should.
Here's how to do it.
1. Boot into fastboot
2. After installing drivers for OMAP and LG Cosmo, start the shell.
3. Execute lines one by one:
fastboot flash x-loader files\x-loader.bin
then
fastboot flash u-boot files\u-boot.bin
and
fastboot flash boot files\boot.img
EXECUTING THEM ALL WILL LEAD IN A BOOTLOOP, DONT WORRY ITS FINE
4. Boot into fastboot and flash them again.
fastboot flash x-loader files\x-loader.bin
then
fastboot flash u-boot files\u-boot.bin
and
fastboot flash boot files\boot.img
5. Flash recovery image.
fastboot flash recovery files\cwm.img
or
fastboot flash recovery files\twrp.img
After boot, install ROM Manager and reboot into recovery.
If you still have problems, go back and do everything right.

try and flash all the "fastboot" files as written once more, and maybe for testing purposes, try the cwm.img instead of twrp image. you can also switch to twrp when you see you got it working. i do not flash all files switching, only cwm or twrp images needs to be flashed.
When the bootloader is updated, we can actually flash boot and recovery images from a shell prompt now. as long as the image is with signature. but fastboot will just be a brick recovery step when you first got it working.
What did I do. I used the windows tool KGS Utility v8.0 and want to flash openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.3-m8.imag. I had to rename the image to boot.image and flasht it and after that I can only get in to CWM and flash a rom but it wont reboot. Please help?

Why dont u try to install latest 4ext recovery

Thank you for your reply to help me. I successfully installed 4 roms but when I reboot it hangs with the first vibration and a white screen with green htc lettres. Does 4ext recovery does the difference?

before flashing the rom enable smartflash from 4ext because you are on S-ON
or flash the boot.img of the rom via fastboot command
the command is fastboot flash boot boot.img
i suggest to flash viperS 5.3.0 rom because rumrunner S-OFF method will be easy(and successfull)

solution
I fixed it myself and a little help from androidworld forum in the Netherlands.
I tried to fix it with this xda page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
But I came till end of step 4B. I then tried to flash with the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" but get the message that boot.image was not recognised. The file boot.image was extracted from a ROM zip. Like the threat said put out from the tab kernel/stock the file boot.image.
Than I tried the same thing with a tool KGS Utility v8.0 earlier mentioned in my post, the same that give me the problems.
Startup the tool KGS Utility v8.0 and did step to flash a boot.image. Put the file boot.image in de tab C:\Program Files (x86)\KGS Utility\tools and run it. After flashing closed the tool KGS Utility v8.0 reboot the phone. It took a while but it reboot
Now I am on ViperS 5.2.1 with SebastianFM 1.0.4 kernel

There is no problem with drivers .Even though I installed drivers my phone is not detecting in fastboot devices,So i am unable to flash any recovery from fastboot or sp tool .
Hello guys!
So, I have this HTC Pico with TWPR and Cyanogenmod 11 RC4 and I wanted to install stock Rom, but it didn't work (Bootloop). What should I do?
Change the recovery first!!
What recovery, and how to flash it? Because I tried flash stock recovery and CWM recovery with ADB Fastboot but it saying <waiting for device>.

How to install the Original Firmware Dude??? we are not able to access anything other than the fastboot mode!!!
Try reflash recovery in computer
And download original firmware in your SD Card
And install Firmware in SD Card Tgats how I fix
Problem Solved!!!!!
Hey !! I solved the pblm!!! what I did was just hit and trial but it worked. Now I will give the method:
Follow these steps and see if u are lucky enough!
step1: go to fastboot mod in your oppo f1
step2: flash stock recovery using adb. Type in "fastboot flash recovery stock.img"(download here)
step3: do not reboot your device and type in "fastboot flashing lock_critical".
step4: type in "fastboot reboot"
After these 4 steps I was able to boot back in Project spectrum. I haven't checked until that if I m able to go to recovery mode but I will update once I check. Check if you can boot.
Note: keep the stock.img file in the same folder in which you have your adb installed.
And I am not sure if this will work for you also.. but it is safe so go give a try!!!
