I might as well reserve this...
I hope you get this working. Also, I don't know why "Fix Permissions" was taken out of the latest CWM & Philztouch versions. Maybe once you get this going you can look into that. Just a thought. Also, I can test, if needed.

Well, I've been to hell and back with my Kindle and experienced almost every single type of brick there is. The only one I haven't had is a brick in which the bootloader is overwritten with an incorrect/corrupt image (resulting in a hard brick and not fixable at the moment).

The recovery works great and I greatly appreciate your efforts but, the menu is so tiny compared to the size of the screen. Is there a way to make it bigger? Also, the volume buttons are so awkward to use. I know that's not really something you can change but, its a thought.

I think you can partially control it via touch (EDIT: Nevermind), but when I tried to look for how to build cwm-touch, I couldn't find it. I think I actually prefer it like this, though, because, have you seen it install a nightly automatically? It looks beautiful & minimalistic.

Hi folks!
I'm getting a Xoom next week (a little late, but better late than never!) so I'm new to Xoom related topics.
I took this weekend to read as much as I can about the device, methods and options available for it. And I got very impressed, there's a lot of stuff, which is a good thing!
But one thing in special got my attention: the recoveries available here.
I did not dig up that much on the forum, so I just found this two:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1235170
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074979
The first one is based on ClockworkMod 5.0.2.8, and the last one, as far as I understood, is based on ClockworkMod 3.2.0.0.
I know this is a very particular choice of the developer, basing his(hers) work on whatever he(she) sees fit, but here comes my question:
Why no one mention this option here: http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.8.3.1-wingray.img ???
I got this link from CyanogemMod wiki: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Motorola_Xoom_(Wi-Fi):_Full_Update_Guide
And looking at the numbers I can tell the first two options are very outdated... Someone ever used this 5.8.3.1 version?? It has any known issues?? Less features??
Maybe I'm being stupid by asking these questions, but I prefer not to be in doubt.
Thanks in advance!
look also TWRP recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782235
Thanks! Seems very nice!
But I'm really curious about the official ClockworkMod recovery that I mentioned.
I've used the official CWM for xoom and it really sucks compared to some other options we have. It is good but there isn't an option for installing from internal SD card and nandroids to internal SD card. The font is much bigger and more scrolling is needed.
I personally think Team Rogues touch recovery is best, I use that permanently.
Team EOS have a later version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604014
TWRP personally I hate, maybe we got off on a bad foot but I really dislike the interface and the way it works.
Give them all a flash and see what suits you, it's relatively easy to switch between them so it's not a hassle.
This is what I want: some opinions about them. Thanks!
Team Rogue's seems very nice indeed! I'm very inclined to use that.
In this link you sent me there are some big letters saying it's depreciated and tells us to use TWRP instead, which is very nice too!
Don't use the official CWM as they aren't optimized for the Xoom and don't have external capabilities. Stick with either the current EOS or Rogue recovery. Imo TWRP is the best because it allows you to compress backups and flash multiple zips at once. It is also a full gui and therefore easier to navigate. Lastly it incorporates a file manager into the recovery, CWM doesn't have that. You can also look the screen while in TWRP to prevent accidental execution of commands.

The fact that Team EOSs recovery is depreciated doesn't mean it doesn't work, it works perfectly and is still a great recovery. It's just no longer maintained/updated

If someone could, please help me... I don't seem to get the recovery working...
First I got really scared when I first entered stock recovery and only the lying Android with the red triangle with a black exclamation mark appeared with no options at all! I search for this to find that this is how stock recovery looks like.. It's not an error.
Then I pressed Vol up + Power to reboot my device. No options appeared...
I installed Tiamat's 3.2.0.0 rc4 recovery via command line. Apparently everything went good, but when I adb reboot recovery, I get the same lying Android screen with no options (seems that Tiamat's recovery was not installed, yet no error message appeared during installation..)
What am I missing?? What are the buttons combinations to get the recovery options??

Thanks to:
Shabbypenguin and the rest of OUDHS for their work on this recovery for the Galaxy S4.
Koush for CWM.
Google for AOSP.
My testers.
OUDHS Recovery is my favorite on my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S4 and Shabbypenguin created it. This is a port with minimal changes for the Google Nexus 7 (2013). The controls are self-explanatory, and the reason why I love this Recovery over normal CWM or TWRP. Maybe you will too. You can get to Rainbow Mode by scrolling down the list a few times.
Confirmed Bugs:
ADB Access Not Working
If using SuperSu Root for 4.3, you will always see a "Disable Recovery Flash?" popup when you choose to Reboot. Always say No, or you will lose root until you flash the SuperSu Root through a Custom Recovery again.

2. Download preinstall http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-to.../current/saucy-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip
yes it is 300+mb make sure you have space on your sdcard for it
3. Reboot to recovery wipe data and format system then flash bootstrap file first the infuse_ubuntu zip then reboot recovery may do it itself
4. in ubuntu's purple recovery flash the saucy zip takes a while to flash make sure your battery is charged
5. Note this a preview not a daily driver it is pretty cool but it lacks full features.
if it doesnt boot up go into ubuntu's recovery wipe data and format system then flash bootstrap then saucy
To update partially go to terminal on your phone and type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y
the password is phablet
I am working on porting the flipped version which has more features

What do you mean what did it do ?
Please explain did it reboot etc ?
I did the wipes and partition formats like you instructed from CWM (version 6.1 I think, can't check ATM). I flashed the first zip and it aborted and said please flash again to confirm. I did, a status bar appeared then it rebooted to the white Samsung logo boot screen and sat there for a good thirty minutes before I got fed up and pulled the battery. Now when I boot I get the black screen with the Samsung logo and I can't boot into recovery anymore so I'll have to plug it up to Odin and repartition. I left it at home though so its gonna be a while.

I would need some details on getting started with this, and what details you need, from me to help.
I have already downloaded the files from earlier in the thread. my current recover is cwm 6.0.3.2 but I think one of the zips replaces that, right? I'm posting the info to make sure there hasn't been a problem with changing over from there.

It is compiled from official cm-10.2 sources
So, I assume it is safe, just as stock CWM can be
It flashed fine and seems to accept regular backups. The interface is sweet looking. I like it. Way better than the previous bare bones one, as far as looks go. As soon as I find a new ROM to flash I'll give it whirl. Good job dude.

You can wait next year when cm-11 recoveries are fully stable, but then you'll even have to wait for cm12 :cyclops:
Chopsticks gave a specific recovery for 4.3 and 4.4, risk ain't worth it in my book. Anyway nice job seems cool.

This is my point. Will PhilZ recovery properly write partitions? Specifically /data, as I believe that is the problematic one due to SELinux.

1- Read the few pages of the thread
2- This is based on celox, and all celox based devices I support do work perfectly
3- Either test and report or watch the thread and wait without cluttering it with useless comments
4- Ask in FAQ if you are impatient to wait for others to test it for you
Sorry, monitoring +70 threads for support/feedback. If I have to refresh them all just for useless comments, I am wasting my time

Nope, does nothing. That's a relic from the gingerbread era.

I'll make our position clear on that statement. We recommend a specific recovery so that we can rule out certain items when debugging issues, that is all. We are not making a recommendation based on "what is the best recovery available", it is a consistency decision that helps us when issues arise related to the file system, flashing, etc.
@Phil3759 - thanks for building this for the skyrocket.
I installed the new cm11 nightly with 0 problems. Went just like it should. Just FYI

PhilZ Touch is a CWM Advanced Edition that adds all the features you could ever miss in CWM
It is a well proven recovery for many phones
It also adds a full touch interface a completely configurable GUI
Please give your feedback, what works, and any bug you could encounter
Read the features, and check if you are missing something
To take a screen shot, just long press outside a menu (2 sec and slightly change pressure after the delay)
Also, do not forget to read about the powerful aroma file manager integration and double tap shortcut

K thanks
Used flashify and working great!
Thanks for bringing it to our variant! :victory:
I haven't used a CWM based recovery for awhile. Is this head and shoulders better than the other recoveries available?

Works great, used flashify.I'm a long time twrp fan.

Don't ask me what I did, but I went to go flash another ROM so I booted back into recovery and up came TWRP. This is after I flashed PhilZ with Flashify. I sorted it out but just wanted to let you guys know.

I have seen this on all my devices. Never used it but thinking bout it...I can't remember for the life of me if I read somewhere you can restore twrp backups in this or maybe it's other way.?

The recovery is great. I always was a fan of CWM, but this is beyond superb. It works as intended and looks fabulous.

Just installed to check this out.
I tried using the Install option to see if I could get to zip files on my external SD card. Lists SDcard1. That doesn't jive with what I've observed with Root Explorer (which lists SDcard2).
Tried using SDcard1 and it just seemed to hang.
I feel I need to ask if the M8's mount points and names are correctly implemented. I've read they are not the same as for the M7 and the lists I've seen for the two do differ.
Am I missing something?
Thanks.

Hmm. That's odd. I just rebooted to check in recovery myself and it work perfectly fine. Tell me what happens when you do this. Goto Install Zip - Install from SD - and select sdcard1. If it 'hangs' touch the screen. Is there still vibration feedback?
