Here is the deal :
I want to run recovery related update zip throught recovery, but I need an adb shell script to do that.
How to automaticaly run the recovery related zip throught adb or any kind of other way.
I can't install it like apk using adb install. It got to be installed throught recovery.
Don't want to install it manually ( select the file ... ) want to fix it automaticaly.
Any clues or other possibilities ?

This tutorial is for noob people like me who needs a clean, simple and secure way to achieve something more from their stock ROM phones.
No doubt the devs are doing magics with their images but probably there are many conservative people who want to stay with their original firmwares.
So here we go:
My phone was runnig RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.080 5U_38.03.02.11_M_release out of the box first. It was S-ON. I S-OFFed it using Alpharevx and then I rooted it with Gingerbreak 1.20. Then I decided to update the phone with the stock RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.47.401.4_Radio_20.28I.30.085 AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed and I lost my root but the phone was still showing S-OFF. Rooting with Gingerbreak is not working on 1.47.xxx ROMs. I rooted it using 4EXTRecovery v2.1.0 FINAL and this file from http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/revolutionary
To install 4EXTRecovery v2.1.0 FINAL on a non rooted phone(thanks to madmaxx82 and .sh4d0w.):
1. Download and unzip on your PC the attached 4EXTRecovery v2.1.0 FINAL.zip file
2.Copy all 5 files to the C:\ directory of your PC.
3.Connect your phone to the PC(debug usb option activated) charge only
4.Run cmd to open console, point to the directory where you copied the files and type: adb reboot bootloader - device will boot into the bootloader
5.Type: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Done
After reboot you should have 4EXTRecovery installed available from recovery option on your hboot menu.
6. Copy to the root of your SD Card the file su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip which you can download from here
7.Go to the 4EXTRecovery > install from sd card and choose su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip
8.Done. After reboot you should have SUPERUSER installed and your phone is rooted again
To get Ad hoc wifi support:
9.Download and unzip the attached Ad hoc.zip file to your PC.
10. Install from 4EXTRecovery ADHOC.v2.zip file and reboot.
11.Copy and replace wpa_supplicant file to: /system/bin
(you can use file expert apk from the market to do that)
Done. You have an Ad hoc wi-fi support.
YOUR PHONE MUST BE S-OFF BEFORE TO START THIS PROCEDURE!!!
DO IT ON YOUR OWN RISK!
Good luck!
You can have a look here for double check: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16171869&postcount=184
Just to be sure: does installing 4EXTRecovery or su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed wipe any data from you phone?
NO it didn't !
I did it last night and worked !
Phone remains untached. Just rooted

If I have ClockworkMod Recovery installed already then can I install 4EXTRecovery on top of that?
I don't think so. You better don't. But why do you need 4EXT once you have already CWM installed? I just shared one option to root 1.47.xx ROM which was not possible to do with Gingerbreak. If I have to remove CWM I would flash stock RUU. You will keep your S-OFF but will loose root. Then install 4EXTRecovery and proceed to root with the su-file. But maybe there is more elegant and time-saving way to do it. Just surch around the forum.

Uninstall all HTC drivers and HTC Sync from your PC. Download fastboot drivers available here and install them. Make sure your phone is with USB debug active, connect it to the PC(charge only) and you should be OK. After everything done you may install your HTC Sync again if you want.

But you have SuperUser installed so your phone is already rooted. What actually are you trying to do?
When I was installing the stock ROM I was using the drivers provided from the official HTC website. Before to succeed with flashing the RUU it gave me couple of times connection error and waiting for device. I tried with sync option and with charge option and it worked at the end. You can try that too. As far as I remember flashing the RUU was with USB debug OFF.

What is the problem with your wifi? Install the file expert apk from market. Open it and go to the place on your SD Card where you put the file wpa_supplicant. Copy the file and navigate to /system/bin and paste it - it will ask you to overwrite the existing file. Press ok and that's it. Make sure that you have installed the ADHOC.v2.zip file from recovery too.

Just boot in to recovery and choose install zip from sd card
Navigate to ADHOC.v2.zip(the file should be on the root of your SD Card) and install it. Reboot.
Trying to cook a rom for my ZTE Z990 (ATT Avail / ZTE Roamer)
I follow the instructions and get the zip file, copy the file to my sdcard / or push through ADB
then do
adb reboot recovery
the phone comes back to the android system recovery <3e>
I select the option to do update.zip from sdcard
I get:
verifying update package...
installation aborted...
I can't seem to find another recovery option for my phone so trying an alternative doesn't seem to be an option...
no explanation, no error any info or directions would be appreciated, and I can't ask in the kitchen thread because I am a noob and the thread is closed.

You need the SDK installed and for it to be in the path or executing the command in the directory. Or, you could install TWRP via a terminal emulator, but you'll need to be rooted I believe. The easiest method is to download goo manager from the play store and use the install recovery option. (click the menu button in upper right corner)

Which would need root access, too.
As faustus1005 said, I'd check the PATH variable, and make sure everything is in the places it is expected to be.
After installing the SDK, I've installed TWRP via Scott's script.
Don't know how to root the device, though, as ther are no instructions. I can't post a question in the dev. forum as I don't have write access.
Thanks,

Hi
I have a Motorola XT319 (GB 2.3.5) China ROM . I rooted it & removed stock launcher & most chinese app, flashed Gapps etc. Then yesterday I did a factory reset. After that phone boots normally & I get signal & notification bars, screen lock, can receive calls etc. But as there is no launcher I cant do any further. There is no gapps in stock rom. USB debugging is disabled so can't push anything through adb.
I can boot into stock recovery & see the option of apply update from SD card & other options as well.
Please suggest is there any way to recover from this. Or any help to find a SBF & flashing it.

1. I just bought a droid 3 which I rooted. It's android version is 2.3. Can I update it to Android 5.1.1 as in the lollipopto.website or do I have to install android 4.4 as mentioned on the xda developers site under custom roms?
2. I want to use this smartphone as a mini computer without wifi, internet access or phone service. I know there are apps that can be installed that run offline. I would like to do a clear wipe of the phone. I installed Titanium Backup and I have seen lists of apps that can be taken off but I would like to know what are the essential apps that I could leave on, the bare minimum that the phone needs to have just to be functional..
Thanx

Hello,
You need to first check if official lollipop is available for your device? If yes, you can upgrade. But some updates include firmware/bootloader updates. So please make the previous updates before proceeding.
As for second issue, there is no list as such but you can delete the ones you consider not important.
But please keep in mind to not delete the core apps or it will end up in a bootloop/Force closes..

I successfully rooted my phone but I am having problems installing clockworkmod. I tried the easiest way by installing a ROM manager but get Error while downloading from server. Please make sure you have stable internet connection and that your sd card is inserted and has free space.. It is for this reason that I would probably have an issue getting it from the googleplay store. So I downloaded adb.exe which isn't working either. I don't see it containing any img file that has to be flashed. Is there any simple way it could be installed without using an unlocked bootloader?
Where is the RECOVERY img????

After downloading adb and clockworkmod where is the recovery image? I think I tried every website related to a droid 3.
Once your device boots into bootloader mode, type this into the command line.
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.x.x-xxx.img
└ Here modify CWM.img with the name of your CWM recovery .img file.
I downloaded CWM 5.0.2.6 Recovery but there was no recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-solana.img file. I downloaded flashify but I am getting an error problem setting up in-app billing lab result .......
How do you do this?

Hello,
Recovery image is the recovery i.e. Clockwork Mod recovery in this case.
You need to fastboot it.

There is no file named "recovery.img" or any "img" file in the adb zip file.
only a file named recovery.
When I type in the command fastboot flash recovery recovery I get the following information:
