[RECOVERY][STABLE] Patched CWM 6.0.3.2 For Bricked eMMCs + Touch

About
This is the patched version of my CWM 6.0.3.2 to run on Bricked Data Partition Devices . It recognize the ext4 partition mmcblk1p2 on external as data partiton so wipe data and mount data are now fully functional without any errors . I used the similar partition table on CM10 Patch by ivendor so If you have done the preparation ( making a 1.5 GB mmcblk1p2 on external sd as ext4 ) you only need to install recovery and if not you must create the partition on external sd . This version is really stable and perfect for daily usage .

This is great stuff. Nice job man. I was really annoyed because i had to put my sdcard onto reader and then wipe with partition manager every time I wanted to reinstall the ROM
If anyone test this, post here.
I have only one minor advice, I think you should make .zip , .tar and just put links- For Odin: <link> , For flashing .zip: <link> because more thngs people have to do, more room for mistakes, it is easier for you to do it once.
Anyway great job.

Thanks ... I hope it solve your problems
I used internet cafe to upload the *.IMG file and ATM I have no good internet connection to re upload ... There are 2 chooses :
1- You should wait til I get a good net and upload zip version
2- You should do the steps and make zip ( choose base zip from my cwm 6.0.3.0 non bricked devices version ) and tar file then upload them ... I put in first post with full credits
there are few risk of bricked or ... if you do currectly risk is 0%
also I thing recovery should work fine because I got a really few errors so I must be really stable ! as stable as my previous cwm 6.0.3.0.

I can patch all custom kernels and ROMs to support eMMC bricked devices but I need some time because I am on exams

I didn't understand fully how this works? Do I need external card or this can be done with sdcard?
Is this mean that ROM needs to be installed on external card? What about internal memory? Can this be fixed, or it is lost forever?

hope you understand it:
Some users have already broken eMMC.
The problem is the data partition.
to get the roms working, one idea is to make a new data partition on the ext. sd. To be usable the roms need to be patched(the patch says to the rom / kernel that it has to look on ext. sd partition 2 for the data partition.
The next problem would be that a 'wipe data' in recovery or a flash would do something on the bricked data part. in internal sd. that wouldn't change anything(wipe data-after that no data is wiped).
This recovery solves the last mentioned problem
to your questions:
1) this is not a question
2) you need ext. card
3) no. (correct me if i'm wrong)
4) no question.
5) only one partition(data) of the int. card is lost forever
:victory:

I found this kinda funny.
Anyway, yes, we install ROM on the internal memory (/system and /cache partitions are working normally) but /data is on external SD card.
With 'normal' CWM trying to wipe /data throws some errors (khm....it is bricked) but with this one it is supposed to wipe /data on external, so I dont need to wipe it manually from my PC with partition manager (at least it should do that, havent tested yet) ...

Why you afraid of trying this ? thats my cwm only with changes partition table ! The worst thing can be happen is that your phone gona stock at recovery boot animation and will fixed by flashing my normal cwm 6.0.3.2 from odin
I 99% confrim that this will work !

Is there any pathed ROM to work with this recovery? I have a friend that got this problem a month ago. Phone is in the drawer

This will work on ALL ROMS .. only you need to have an EXT4 data partition on extsd at mmcblk1p2
...........
Some news : I'm going to merge both pathced and normal one into One

I don't understand, what is mmcblk1p2, how to create this?

mmcblk1p2 is a partition on the extSD card, you have to create with a partitioning tool, it must be ext4, and you need a kernel to boot the rom from extSD, Ivendor provided a patch for his CM10 to work with data partition on extSD, refer to his thread, in the op he explained how to use it

Hope you understand this :
You must make a second partition on your external sd with ext4 format and at least 1.5GB size . you can use any partition tool ! then install this recovery , you can wipe data or fix permissions or mount data without any errors

Thanks

I have a friend with this problem, we installed the recovery and made ​​the ext4 partition on sd but when installing a rom does not pass the logo.
What rom and kernel install? some patch?

thanx buddy i done wid this now can u tell me how to flash custom roms

Flashing ROM is pretty much easy .
Take a backup of data first , as you'll lose data on internal memory.
If you have flashable zip then put zip file in SD card, reboot into TWRP or CWM, wipe cache and data.
flash zip file from SD card, and wipe dalvik cache. Done.
One thing don't say thanks on post, just press thanks button if i help you

Dont forget to flash a gapp too that is for your google play.

I had no problem with CWM until now but I needed an ext4 partition for a rom (slimkat) and CWM failed.
I then installed 4ext and everything worked. (except the ROM on my phone hehe)
So if you need an ext4 partition for your rom, I would not recommend CWM based on my experience.

It's an HTC Sensation. I tried first with CWM and rom manager. But the partition was not recognized when installing (Slimkat) .
Then, I found this about creating partition: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2125513
Where you can read:
These two methods are the best ones to use. Other means could result in sd-card damaging, or other problems. Do not use:
ROM Manager, CWM Recovery, Windows Minitool Partition Wizard etc.

The "partition" you're talking about there is SD partition, right? To use that partition you must format the partition's file system to ext4, not fat32 (default SD file system). Maybe it "didn't work," just the in the wrong file system.

Yes, correct. The conclusion is that I was able to make a correct ext4 partition with 4ext recovery only, I thought it could be useful to the OP regarding his question about CWM.

Except that all phone partitions are ext4 by default. It's the phone partitions OP is concerned of, not SD partitions. I think..
Are you saying that some recoveries have different file systems other than ext4?

He asked if the steps to install kitkat are the same and more info about CWM. I just explain the problem I had when I did exactly what the OP wants to do, in the same situation.
It would crash during the install because there was no ext4 partitions on the sdcard. I don't know why, this part I don't understand. I never had to do something like that until now. So after investigating the matter I realised that I had to create an ext4 partition (1GB) on my SD card. (it had 1 Fat32 partition)
I tried with different tools. CWM included. They failed. I stepped upon the post I mentioned before. I installed 4ext. I created a 1GB ext4 partition on the SD Card. The install was successful and I enjoy my phone again with KitKat. (but in the end I removed Slimkat due to some bugs and installed this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2530073, which works perfectly so far)
That's all about my experience installing a kitkat based rom which is the OP goal. As mentioned before, I don't know why it needed this ext4 partition for the installation. My knowledge does not go that far, but the result is there.

since u flashed kitkat in ur htc sensation and u hav done it right, u can guide me to do so......
here is what i understood regarding the kitkat rom
i have to to do partition of my SD card (the link was helpful !!!)
CWM version does not do any help for kitkat rom (i guess !! am still confused about CWM recovery because the link for one v's CWM 6.0 is dead and in Kitkat rom's link it does not say anything or about the CWM version how to flash it )
my question is
after partition, did you completed the "using the ext partition" and then you flashed it using CWM and what version of CWM did you use ?
and my CWM version is 5.8 should i use it to flash kitkat (without getting bricked) ??
Sorry for asking so many question. My roms thread does not have the details that i generally find in other thread. I want to flash Kitkat so badly.
It does not matter if the rom works or not, still its worth a shot. just want to make sure i do everything right from my side without damaging my handset.

Sorry.. Even I don't understand the question anymore. But as far as I know, ext4 partitions on an SDcard is never related to flashing ROMs.. It is only used for Link2SD and such..

Yes, so, somehow it looks like during the installation, these Kitkat roms were expecting an ext4 partition on the SD Card.
If you look in Internet, you can find things like that for example:
(Damn, my xda noob account does not let me post links, search youtube and use this video ID: ?v=bUMhn6geaUM
They talk about this ext4 partition on the SD card, why they do it and what they use to do it. (Partition Magic)
Maybe if I had just removed my SD card , the install script would not have tried to use the SD card, but let's not add more confusion
As I said, CWM (I had 5.8) did not work to create a correct ext4 partition on my SD Card. (the install failed again)
The funny thing is I even paid 2$ for CWM xd
I replaced CWM by 4ext recovery. website: 4ext.net (install the 4EXT Recovery Updater)
Then I created the ext4 partition on the SD Card and both kitkat roms I tried were installed successfully.
(In 4ext recovery, install from zip, select your rom zip, go.)
btw, I backed up everything before (but I guess it's obvious) , once, I had to reinstall my backup from recovery because it would not boot.

i got back my imei fixed through a local store. i tried everything which didn't work at that moment. now i have my imei and i used mtk droid tools to take a backup this time and tried the whole process again. i used sp flash tools and the zip method for increasing internal memory for installing color os rom. but it didn't work again.
the current status of my phone is that i am using stock rom which is rooted but all i wanted to ask is that did i mess up with my internal sd card which is actually not allowing me to install color os rom? or is it something else? because i did each and every step correctly each time.

use the cwm zip file to increase the partition.. just to confirm again.. then flash the rom...
did you flash the color os2 or the original one?
Edit: did you also flash the patch?

i tried to use the zip file but it didn't work either. i got the bootloop again. i was flashing color os 1.2 rom.
and i did not use the patch yet. actually i don't know how it works so didn't try. i have almost given up on this. i don't know why i am not able to do it.

I followed each step correctly..
i used 880mb partition file for that i did wipe data/factory reset>wipe cache>wipe system> wipe dalvik cache and then installed 880mb.zip
as memntioned in that thread i installed the rom zip directly after that and rebbot system. i was supposed to get the bootloop at first which i got and then i did wipe data/factory reset>wipe cache>wipe system> wipe dalvik cache again and installed rom again. but i am stuck in bootloop.
i was reading the reviews in color os thread and it was mentioned to unmount cache and sytem before flashing i did that too but no luck.
so please let me know if i did anything wrong because thiis is all i have been trying.

where does the content of internal sd card goes when it is used as partition..... thw
abhimanyu bajaj said:
see.. what your computer labeled as internal SD .... titanium labeled as ext. sd okay? see. both have the same memory..
the sd in titanium backup is your sd card
the internal memory is the app memory...
try installing color os.... follow instructions..i should install.. otherwise ask the dev. in the rom forum

Figured out internal Sd card mount error clear solution.
Here's what i think you have done
You did a system partition with sptool and also tried zip like 507mb to 1gb or in between .
I had the same problem of lost internal sd card in file manager.
If you want it back or increase system partition try factory mode to format unmount error of internal sd card.
follow these steps.
1) take or keep a backup in sd card.
2) go into cwm recovery mode and flash 507mb partition zip or 1gb partition zip(507mb for undo partition and 1gb for partition)
3)To solve mount issue without external sd card go to factory mode after the flash.
select "Full test" option in it select memory it'll show 3 options
1 Format ext...
2 test pass
3 test fail
And it shows the space in yellow text in two sd card as 0 mb or any . Select the first option which will increase the space of internal sd.
After you'll just need to update or restore backup to successfully fix mount error for internal sd card either for partition or undo partition.
This worked for me when i just tried various format option to format the partition error.
