Hey guys... I just thought to post this new CWM Recovery v6.0.4.6 which support SELinux for device like LG-P500 (arm v6).
UPDATE: New recovery can flash all CM 10+ ROMs and CM 11.
This recovery has RAINBOW theme, Wana try press vol+ vol- button and then continuous press vol- and reclick back button. Enjoy KITKAT 4.4.2 and other CM 10+ ROMs on this CWM 6.0.4.6 recovery.
Update December 26, 2013:
recovery and format of sdext
Update Jan 16, 2014
Flash all CM10+ and CM11 ROMs
Backup restore problem solved (Linking Dexes and showing "zero' system space after boot)
___________________________________
Please 'HIT THANKS' if this really help you, Thanks meter encourage developer to work more enthusiastically

Very nice recovery. Did the trick for KitKat ROM.
Note however bug I found:
While previous 5.0.2.7 would fail to backup sd-ext, this one succeeds in doing so. Great.
However when restoring, sd-ext fails trying to format the (ext4) partition.
Word to wise: Backup sd-ext to PC before experimenting.
Note the 5.0.2.7, after a factory reset, left me with this partition unwritable so rather have it fail than bashup

could we ask one for P505?
thanks

KitKat Preview Version for P500 (Requires CWM Recovery v6.0.4.5) by hephappy:
http://www.mediafire.com/hephappy#b697xnkc74c6n

I have a huge problem: the recovery installs only cm11! Any other Rom I try to flash(cm10.2) doesn't work! It says status 7 and something about device (get.prop.device .....)
Am I the only one having this problem??

I have the solution for this problem(ibub told me about it)
Just copy the assert statement(first lines in updater script) from kitkat roms to the rom you want to flash and everything should be fine.

@mukulsoni
Firstly I would like to thanks for your excellent work of this CWM Recovery As you suggested on the Android 4.3 thread I did install this recovery, flashed cm-11-UNOFFICIAL-20131216 with no error :good:, and kitkat booted on my p500 eventually :victory: :beer: , as reported by others.
Brief review for Recovery
Bit laggy compare to v5.0.2.7, can not backup and restore sd-ext. (failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2. Error while formatting /sd-ext). It's the culprit kitkat failed to mount sdcard?
Request:
It"ll get 5 stars for touch version as v5.0.2.7 by vivekkalady. NotOnlyEyes provided touch (well, actually not fully touch from my opinion) version 6.0.4.5 but an error occur while flashing cm-11.
Anyway, thanks for the great works

Seems only laggy to get first menu, a couple of other places. Can live with that.
The failure to format is its own error, I believe. Saw commits about a fix.
The other error is that clearing Dalvik Cache also kills link2sd's on sd-ext. At least, this should be a option.
Generally, touch versions are more problematic, sometimes do not fit screen, etc. Better off as we are.

New Update: SDEXTRestore fixed :highfive:

[MTD][RECOVERY] Restore CWM from TWRP

Thanks:
-Drockstar for CWM for the Epic
-Koush for CWM
-Team Win for the recovery injector
Info
This is a zip to restore CWM from TWRP if you flashed TWRP and you hate it or if a kernel you like has TWRP and you prefer CWM.
This has been tested flashing using TWRP while on ICS.
I am not responsible for anything that happens s a result of flashing this.
Make sure "Inject TWRP" is unchecked before flashing.

I thought that rom manager used a temp-boot copy, so flashing it wouldn't overwrite the recovery that you access from the three finger boot?

I' am not able to restore CWM in place of TWRP. I could not post here earlier owing to the issue of 10 posts and i have crossed it just a while ago on another post on the same issue.
TWRP gives me an error message "unknown md5 error" for any zip file that i try to flash and hence i' am now stuck with ROM (MIUI V4) and the Kernel (Nyan Colonel). Due to the same error i' am unable to flash the CWM restore too. Is there any other way that i could restore CWM other than going back to stock with ODIN ?
Thanks

Yes. The one currently linked in the CM wiki, http://cmw.cmfs.me/apexqtmo/apexq_recovery-10.2.img works. You were trying it with the old CM 10.1 recovery. This is far too old.

Which recovery are you using? I do not know what version of recovery that ROM manager gets you. I've never used that. Please specifically flash a compatible recovery. Some time not long before the release of the recovery I linked, recovery could not access SD cards on the relay. The one linked is certified as compatible. If you're having trouble with your backup restore using that recovery, than it's likely a problem on your card or the backup set.

Once you install it, remember to go into advanced, and reboot to recovery so that you're using the newer one rather than your older one.
Also, everyone, it's been pointed out that I'm an idiot. I was using a ParanoidAndroid Gapps package, that was deleting Gallery2, and replacing it with GoogleGallery. When using the correct Gallery app, video recording works fine.

I'll point out where I say in the subject of the OP, this is a Pre-Alpha, and later in the thread where I said that the team is not quite ready to be in full support mode for this version, this is a preview release. The camera though is quite stable, so long as you are using the certified gapps linked by Nardholio, and also linked in the OP.

[Q] Problem installing ROMs (status 0)

I wanted to try a KitKat ROM so i downloaded a couple on PC and transferred to SD card. I did a backup (which really saved me lol) and then, as instructed , formatted system, data, and cache. Wiped Dalvik and flashed ROM (Paranoid Android 4.0). It started but after the "installing update" message I got a error message " error /location of zip/name of zip (status0)". I thought it meant that the zip was corrupted so i downloaded on PC again. Transferred to SD and tried to install following the same stepsand got the error again. After that I tried to install another ROM(Validus 5.1) and still got the error. Decided to restore and see if i could get help before trying again. Any ideas what is wrong? Thanks in advance for any help
EDIT can dev please move I thought i was posting in troubleshooting section. Sorry

I am currently using TWRP, but I have used PhilzTouch in the past. They both work pretty well. TWRP has bigger buttons that are spaced out better and has an easier interface to use. PhilzTouch has some other features but isn't as polished. It is just a matter of personal preference. Some Roms will have a recommended recovery listed, though.
Also, to make sure that the zip you download isn't corrupted, check the md5 of the zip you download against the md5 on the download page.

Biggest advantage of using Phillz touch is that it can detect OTG cable,so you can flash ROMs from USB device as well;on the other hand, TWRP allows you to flash 10 zips at the same time,it will release the overhead of selecting Zip one after another manually. So choose your options wisely.
Edit:-
One more thing I would like to add,Phillz touch blackhawk supports dual-booting through next kernel

Just wanted to say thanks again to jrc2. I went with TWRP because backup to sd card was not working on CWM and Philz. Backup would start and in the middle of backing up data or system tab would just reboot. But TWRP looks ok and flashed with no problems.

Why don't you just flash a different recovery and use that instead of cwm?

When you fastboot flash a different recovery, it will delete the cwm recovery and overwrite the whole recovery partition.

OK, now it worked! BUT (yep, there are more problems here) with Cyanogenmod my camera and Wi-Fi dont want to work! And if I try to restore my stock rom, the boot is infinite! I've tried doing WIPE (Factory Reset) but the problem still persist! D: :crying:

What are your exact steps? Which cyanogenmod ROM are you flashing? Which recovery did you use? You'll have to use twrp 2.5 I think to restore stock ROM.

The Cyanogemod file is called cm-10.2.1-tf300t.zip (I guess thats Cyanogenmod 10.2), I used the backup that I've made before installing CM... The recovery is TWRP and its version is v2.6.0.0
What is wrong? D:
Thats what I have done:
Unlock bootloader with Asus program
Root
Installed CWM recovery and changed it to TWRP
Backup
Flashed Cyanogenmod, it boots fine but WiFi and camera doesnt work
Restore the stock ROM, but it keeps bootlooping! Even doing WIPE, the problem persist
UPDATE: Is this ROM good for my tablet? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2425390

Thank you so much! YOU ARE MY HERO
No problem man.
Download http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407579270. This is the twrp file. fastboot flash that.
Next, download https://s.basketbuild.com/filedl/de...ip&dluid=343be2b9-36d2-4262-8978-633fbd9b8565. This is the latest pacman ROM. Its pretty stable for me. If you would like a custom kernel, let me know.
You will also need gapps. Find and download a gapps package from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942.
Put both gapps and pacman ROM on your tablet or an sdcard to put in your tablet. Perform a wipe in your new twrp recovery and then install ROM and then install gapps(don't reboot between installs). Should be good to go after that.

Sorry I was out at the lake. I think in the fastboot command you just replace .blob with .img

Fastboot not recognizing is probably a driver issue. Failing to mount stuff can be due to OC partition layout, and remember, Windows will never recognise anything except your sdcard. What you can do is repartition your sdcard, according to the suggested pattern. With one gb ext2 and 128mb ext2.

Which ROM?? You can happily use one of the latest ROMs by me, they have been tested with the new recovery to work well
tried your FIUI from https://technologistguild.com the same symlink error appeared i think there is problem with my device.
I cant reply you there i dont know why.
I tried speeddroid and jaggyrom with both: twrp and cwm. Twrp says the symlink error and with cmw successfully installed but stuck at boot animation.

That forum is thoroughly ****ed up, so don't bother. I'm moving stuff into my blog at msfjarvis.me
I still am unable to find the issue with your device, and don't have the time right now.

Recovery log is not a very big problem, though as I am seeing my device tree, it should have mounted fine. I'll bug you some more about this later because I'm the official maintainer and thus it's my responsibility to do so.

There's no actual way to verify it but I suggest that you just recover all your NAND just for safety

Keep only two sd ext partitions, first sd-data, second sd-cache. Then flash any NEW (awesom3 supported) ROM and you should be fine

Sure! Go to my blog's PAC ROM section , the links to the ROM and working GApps are at the bottom. Please ensure you download Build #3 which I have labeled as the "Current LTS Version" since it is the most bug-free and stable version we've done.
Thanks for your support!
Cheers,
MSF Jarvis
