Hello all.
I've compiled the latest ClockworkMod recovery for the Tattoo. In addition to the normal features it has, this is using a custom smaller font, so the text fits better on a QVGA screen.
If you're already rooted, you can flash it with "flash_image recovery recovery.img" (after running "su" first) from a terminal shell prompt, or from adb shell.
v2.5.1.8 is the last version included in CyanogenMod 6 sources
v3.0.0.5 is the new recovery from CyanogenMod 7 sources

NForce2506.02.2011 - Repack of 3.0.0.5 with advanced backup and wipe all function. Wipe all will completely format and erase all partitions.
Can you please tell me, in what way exactly is this Recovery better than Amon-RA?
They both do the same basic things. What I find better with ClockworkMod is:
Can turn off signature verification (faster to install roms, and can install unsigned zip files)
Can select zip files in subfolders
Individually select which NAND partition to restore
Can use joy button and back key to navigate
Smaller font (in this special version), so you get to see all text on screen on QVGA devices

You would need to ask the ClockworkMod author for that feature I'm afraid, but I doubt he well add it. Take a look here though.

I asked a couple of weeks ago, but no answer.. I realy like clockworkmod and I'm afraid to change recovery.
Thanks. Good job!
Amazing recovery
Thank you very very much for this recovery. ROM Manager now works properly. BTW, where do I download ClockworkMod Recoveries for HTC Wildfire with my computer? I dont want to use my expensive 3G connection to download and want to use the school network.

Only available through ROM Manager as far as I know, unless someone compiled it and made it available over at the Wildfire forums.
ROM manager does not work with me although I´ve installed this recovery... It seems that the rom manager does not recognize it and it keeps asking me to download clockwork recovery again, and there is no Clockwork recovery for tattoo in that menu????
What seems to B the problem??
ClockworkMod recovery for the Tattoo isn't added to ROM Manager yet. Until now Tattoo owners had to use the Wildfire/Buzz recovery. I'll contact the author and ask if he can add this recovery for the Tattoo, so it's available from ROM Manager.

With clockworkmod recovery I cannot flash some roms which flashed fine with maverick recovery. The installation aborted with this error:
E:Board does not support mtd utils.E:Failure at line 420:
write_raw_image PACKAGE:boot.img BOOT:
The rom is actually flashed, and only boot.img not. So I can boot the rom after manually flash the boot.img.
Is there any way to include mtd utils future in this recovery, or must to return to maverick?
I think it's a bug in clockworkmod. They changed some detection routines in the latest versions, which seems to have broken flashing to mtd when rom is using update-script instead of updater-script. I've heard that 2.5.0.9 is the latest which it worked correctly with. I'll look into it at some point unless they release a new version which fixes it.
clockworkmod 2.5.1.4 seems to be already out!
arco68 please could you take a look here: https://github.com/klutsh/android_bootable_recovery
or here: https://github.com/klutsh/psfreedom-kernels-patch
could you add psFreedom support?
edit: please fix also the font size for the tattoo screen
I suppose it can be done, so I'll take a look. Thanks for the links.
Ran into some problems with the psfreedom recovery. Patching the kernel and compiling the recovery wasn't a problem, but mounting usb mass storage doesn't work. As far as I can see, there seems to be some bits missing in one of the files for the kernel patch for the Tattoo. I could have used the code from one of the other phones kernel patches, but unfortunately the kernel for the Tattoo is just too different from the other ones, that it can't be easily done. Dunno who the hell coded the board sources for the Tattoo, but I suspect he got fired or something, because sources for all other phones after the Tattoo are much more organized and similar to each other.

I think is very hard find what's missing to make it works.. can you do it?
I know you are workin' also on a wonderful rom, but also psfreedom is a nice project that need a skilled man
I see the kernel patches for the Tattoo is no longer there. When he adds a working patch I'll try again.
Hi
I've a Galaxy Mini with XWTN firmware (flashed via ODIN from here )
I had them with the stock recovery and without root, but due to the low memory I wanted to root them for install a sd-ext partition. I did these steps:
- Replaced the stock recovery with this and next with this
-Formatted the sd card using CWM for create a 256 MB sd-ext partition
- Attempted to root the phone flashing Universal_gb_root_v25.zip and Upd_1.zip. The two files failed and CWM show me an error status 7. Also I used SuperOneClick 2.3.3, but doesn't work
- I looked into the updater-script of flashable zips and I noticed that the "Universal_gb_root_v25.zip" updater-script contains a reference to "ro.product.device=GT-S5570L". I looked into the build.prop of my ROM and I noticed that "ro.product.device" is GT-S5570, not GT-S5570L. So, I edited the updater-script into the zip for match "GT-S5570", thinking I could solve the problem, but CWM continues to show me an status 7 error. The other zip I tried, "Upd_1.zip", have the "ro.product.device=GT-S5570" in their updater-script, but CWM show the error anyway.
Considering that these zips are for flash with stock recovery, and I'm using CWM, maybe if I use the stock recovery the zips works? Is there a way to back to stock recovery without flashing the whole rom in ODIN again? (due to data lose)
Thanks.

I tried to install TWRP from Goo Manager. After when the Touchpad rebooted, I had lost my ClockworkMod and there was no TWRP item. The only recovery left was WebOS recovery. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Extract the zip and place the uImage.TWRP into the boot folder. Delete uImage.Clockworkmod if it's there. Then reboot.
Is there any instructions on how to install CWM or TWRP recovery? I installed milaq's build using instructions in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542353
But someone I don't have the CWM or TWRP installed. As a result, in the moboot menu, I can't see a reboot into recovery and can't install any updates either.
I just answered that in the above post. Unzip the install zip. Name the image file.... In your case uImage.TWRP copy it into boot folder.

/boot is possibly too full
Either choose CWM or TWRP and remove one or the other (be sure to employ the recovery specific to the ROM... see the specific ROM thread for more info)
You can use 'Root Browser' in ROM Toolbox Lite app (to copy, paste, move, delete uImage files from the recovery zips to or from /boot)

If /boot has adequate then you may want to to copy the TWRP installer zip file into the /cminstall folder in WebOS and use ACMEInstaller on your PC to reinstall it.
Hi guys,
Just wondering if I can use the flashify app to install dual recovery on my z1. I think I have lost recovery after doing a TA backup, hence installing recovery again. On NUTs github I can see flashable zips so was wondering if I could do that?
difference between flashable zips and installer zips
What is the difference between flashable zips and installer zips on NUTs download page. The installers are larger files so does that mean that the installer.zips have to be run from a pc and flashable.zips can be done from the phone itself?

Yes. You run install script from pc with installer.zips and flash flashable.zips from custom recovery on phone.
F2FS improves the benchmark score in most (if not all) devices by around 20%..
For testing:
I have modified an APK containing Aroma Installer to flash recoveries to fotakernel for our ZR's. This is an initial release..
It contains 2 recoveries.
PhilZ Touch and TWRP with f2fs (TWRP) support which has been tested and working in both Resurrection and Validus builds/ports and should work in all cm11 and CM12/CM12.1 with f2fs working in cm12 after march this year
Install the apk and flash either Philz or Twrp through the app in the drawer..
And no, this is not Xperia Recovery manager.
The recoveries are both contained in the app so making it 22MB to download.
The TWRP 2.8.7.0 has new graphics and f2fs support
PhilZ is stock 6.57.9 cwm v6.0.5.1 shared by @uncomment
Download APP here (contains the 2 recoveries mentioned above): Removed because of bugs.. will fix and upload to new link..
TWRP 2.8.7.0 f2fs with updated graphics flashable zip: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3slVcYWwXQ-RjNKUDhWWk5OemM/view?usp=sharing
(This is the latest recovery from TeamWin with their new blue theme.. I personally didn't like all that blue so I changed the images.. See screenshot below)

Flashable ZIP stock TWRP 2.8.7.0 with f2fs:
Put the zip in you sd card and flash through recovery.. This will push the twrp 2.8.7.0 f2fs to your fota kernel, reboot recovery after flash...
Download: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3slVcYWwXQ-YTB6V1N0eEx5SU0/view?usp=sharing
Please test (recovery.img)
UPDATED TO TWRP 2.8.7.0
Download here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3slVcYWwXQ-SjJRRjdyZ2pzeXc/view?usp=sharing
Instructions are the same as below...
This is TWRP 2.8.6.0
Download here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3slVcYWwXQ-Q0pEYzlFSjhPNFk/view?usp=sharing
Place the recovery.img (it is named twrp.img when you download but rename to recovery.img) to you internal storage and use adb or emulator (download Android Terminal Emulator free from Store) commands to install to your Fota:
su (enter and grant root access if using Emulator)
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel (enter)
If you use Xperia Recovery Manager app by @championswimmer, rename the recovery.img to twrp.img and put in the TWRPXperia folder on your sd-card and flash to Fota through the app. Confirmed working.
If the image doesn't install correctly, please flash this hack:

Only cache and data/ ext-sdcard is convertible for now, if you try to convert system, you will brick your phone..
Use the following method to convert:
Convert to f2fs by pressing Wipe > Advanced Wipe > select the desired partition > Repair or change filesystem > Change filesystem > f2fs
Some added info by @nostupidthing
with f2fs twrp installed, i've changed /cache and /data into f2fs without wiping. you just have to backup /data, then format it as f2fs, click "use rm-rf instead for format" in twrp settings, then restore /data.
If any one is looking for a theme for twrp recovery, i found an excellent theme here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/themes/theme-twrp-materialised-dark-light-play-t2915584
(Download resolution 720x1280 for ZR)
As an added service I am willing to personalize the splash screen at recovery start-up should you have any request ie your name, flag etc but i will insist that "TeamWin" will be present somewhere on your personalized splash.. After all, we all benefit from their hard work.. Do not expect your request to be done within the hour but periodically check and i will upload and link as and when you request is done..
Massive thanks to @uncomment and @o-l-a-v and @Olivier and @blastagator and @qsnc including @nostupidthing for testing and for making this possible. @SdtBarbarossa for the app!!
the "now changing the microsd to f2fs" is not necessary for /data & /cache. you may or may not like to do it, and i ended up not doing it because copying my several gbs of files out of the microsd takes so much time and i just gave up..
but if anyone wants to do it, basically you just copy the files to your PC, then format the microsd to f2fs, then copy the files back there.

I agree with you.. I have formatted my ext sd card but like you said, took ages to copy the content to pc and back again.. In my opinion not worth doing if anyone, like me, use the ext_sd card for storage of music and downloads etc.. Cache and data absolutely worth doing tho.. A great many thanks for your comments and help doing this..
sent from Paul's phone
one more thing. backing up /data via twrp will not back up your "internal sd" files, like camera photos if you store them internally instead of on the microsd, so you have to copy those yourself as well.
Added flashable zip to op... Should make things easier..
the 2.8.7 flashable zip works, bro. thx.

Great
BTW, I would suggest you to set TWRP's file manager to open SDCARD1 by default instead of SDCARD0, if possible, or even both to let users choose. I'm not sure if this is ROM or Recovery dependent because it worked this way through the latest Validus ROM. I'd bet on the recovery side though.

It's party of the recovery but a few spaces down from the top in file manager is external_SD and a few spaces lower is SD_card so should be easy enough to find the way around..
BTW I've made new images and things for twrp which makes it a little easier to see but I'm waiting for permission from someone as I used their ui.xml to make that.. Will be added as soon as
