[I9003][CWM] ClockworkMod Recovery for I9003 with EXT4 on Gingerbread (XXKPE)

CWM is finally here on I9003 for XXKPE
HOW TO:
- Install the latest CWM with EXT4 support;
- do a full backup with nandroid;
- install the attached script (DO NOT REBOOT AFTER THIS STEP);
- restore backup.
IMPORTANT: Read this topic on Edify scripting used on update.zip. The partitions must be mounted before copying files:
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "-t", "auto", "/dev/block/stl9", "/system");
Flashing Zip Files:
If in the updater-script there isn't the "mount /system" option you must - before apply the zip - mount manually /system under "Mount and Storage" menu and then flash your zip.
Feature:
- Added EXT4 filesystem support for the kernel;
- CWM with double RFS / EXT4 filesystem support;
- Busybox;
- Juwe11's RamScript from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111145 ;
THANKS:
A big Thanks to the Skin1980 (this CWM is heavily based on it's project).
Thanks also to koush that made the Clockworkmode Recovery.
Attached you will find the CWM for each FW... just flash with ODIN selecting in the PDA source the CWM file.
UPDATE: 08/02/2011 Added the support for Juwe11's RamScript
Just press "Thanks" if you like my work...!!!
​

So this is it! Thanks X 2 mate! I'm installing the converter immediately

@OP: Thanks, does this support init.d script, so I can use a script like juwe's ram script?

Root issue!

The same as Skin's first version of ext4 converter :
The installation was completed, but when I come back to CWM main menu, recovery writes :
E:Can't mount /cache/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
And when I reboot, it's stucking to the boot screen ("Galaxy S Super Clean LCD")

@pralinos: at work now, can't try it, but did you mean it got stuck at boot screen after you tried to root or even before it? I haven't root my phone and only want to do an ext4 conversion.

After the third step (in the instructions), do not reboot the phone.
Updated the instructions for the same.
Let me know how it goes.

My phone was rooted before I applyed the ext4-format.zip. You need root access to use CWM.

It doesn't work :
Checking MD sums...
Restoring system...
Error mounting /system
Skipping format...
Can't open /system
I think I lost root access just after I applyed the zip, because the error messages appeared as soon as I came back to CWM main menu.

@amit, I have just flashed XXKPE with CWM as per these posts, http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...6#post16169086 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=537.
Now if I want to convert to Ext4 (Internal memory or internal SD card or both??), I believe I have to flash the files in this thread? Will I lost all my apps and data?

Amit, the same happened to Skin when he first released ext-format.zip for Froyo.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1151704&page=53
You musn't be far from succeeding.

There is nothing wrong in the version I posted. Basically if you have rebooted the phone after running ext4 conversion update script, then it won't work. You would need to reflash the vanilla XXKBE and then perform the steps listed in the instruction (Obviously skipping the 2nd step, since I assume, you would have already done nandroid backup )

@amit: how high did the i/o quadrant scored? Gonna try this later

everytime i try to install from sd card, it then gets lost and cannot read it. i was using sky ics.

That recovery doesnt work as far as I remember

is there a solution? one that does a hard wipe and fresh install?
the problem lies somewhere in the cache...

Yeah it's the same procedure as flashing a stock firmware.
Just make sure you place the tar in PDA and DO NOT check repartition!!!!!!!!
There are instructions in the thread I linked, though

It is working!!! Thanks a bunch!!!

hey man!
I'm going to install now your ROM and let you know how well it goes.

well, so far i need to point this:
-> when using titanium backup, miui should allow it to restore all apps at once withpout the need to always ask if we wanna install or the extra miui trusting settings. (maybe there's any option hidden i need to check)
-> if long pressing the menu key, no list of recent apps is shown.
-> everything goes on homescreen, but i noticed this is usual for all miui's.

Thank you

Thank you for your comment and i should fix this bug with menu button and task cleaner.
For titanium backup i think is a app bug with miui framework and it's now the rom.

As long as you can not post in the ROM thread, you should post your question in the Legacy & Low Activity Devices > Samsung Galaxy Mini > Galaxy Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Hopefully you will get proper help there :fingers-crossed:
Could be differnt things, such as corrupt download, wrong ROM for your device, wrong recovery version, etc.
As I don't have your device and no experience with the ROM, you might get some helpful ideas in the forum I linked above.
EDIT:
As my friend @KJ has recognized, you've already posted your issue in Q&A of your device specific forum. So there's nothing we can do for you here at Assist.
We're not here for support or troubleshooting, just help navigating the site.... And you already figured out where to post.
You'll have to be patient and wait for replies.
Good luck!

Help needed for Bootloop, Recovery mode stuck, Flashing sahara fail error in LYF Flame 1 LS 4503

Hi
New member here, so the problem is
1. Phone is stuck on - Powered by Android screen and automatically gets shut down or sometimes need to remove the battery to turn it off.
2 By Pressing volume down + power button = Phone enters in recovery mode which looks like the photo I am attaching here

Some say it's emmc chip failure but I read a forum here ( that's for another phone); in that post, someone posted exactly the same errors and he managed to fix the issues. I will post the link to that forum if I found it.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW IT HAPPENED
The phone was on charging and I pulled out the charging cable and turned it on and after powered by Android screen this recovery screen appeared out of nowhere. It was on charging overnight.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BY FAR WHAT I HAVE PERFORMED
1. I did wipe the cache partition first. - no use
2 Then I downloaded the firmware (2 firmware) and Qualcomm USB loader 9008 drivers and qpst and qpil, after that, I copied the firmware zip files in phone's sd card and tried the " support from SD card" option in " recovery mode ", didn't work, stopped automatically, it was so quick that I couldn't read the errors.
3 Now I tried to wipe data/ factory reset - nothing happened, the process started and stopped automatically.
4 I tried to flash rom on it, ERROR - download fail sahara fail, sahara server fail. Every single time, I changed the versions of flash tool USB drivers, old versions, latest versions, my laptop is flooded with unnecessary versions, it drive looks pretty messed up right now. Zip files and extracted files everywhere.
5 at this point I tried adb and fastboot, adb devices command shows my device name successfully but after that no command works, sometimes it showed failed or sometimes - waiting for device.
Sometimes it keeps saying - *failed to write data 'protocol fault (no status)' *
