LG Marquee has CWM.

Okay guys, I thought what the hell, I'll try the LGE Black option in ROM manager and see what happens.
IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Use the volume keys to move and the search button to select.
The first boot into it, you will get all kinds of errors saying it can't mount certain files.
Go to "Mounts and Storage" and select "mount /cache". The errors will go away.
Everything seems to work as it should.
A quirk that I found was that until you "Wipe cache partition" you will be stuck in recovery and you cannot get out. Once done, "Reboot System Now" and everything works great.
One last thing, I cannot figure out how to key combo into recovery. I have to use ROM manager to access it.
NOTE:CWM messes up turning off the phone. Pressing the power button and selecting OK to turn off will now reset the phone and then boot it back up. Now only way to power off phone (besides pulling battery) is to use ROM Manager to boot into recovery, wipe the cache, then select power off.

good news dude

no key combo on Black, I think it's the same on Marquee

This seems weird; does CWM allow you to make a backup?
Have you tried loading a backup to see how it works?

I have tried and you do not get a complete backup. You do get the boot and recovery img files but not much else.
I have tried (without luck) via twitter to contact Koushik Dutta, the man responsible for CWM. We really need his assistance for this to move forward.

well, I know its possible to use the Android Terminal Emulator to flash a custom recovery image from your sd card;
thedroiddemos.com/2010/07/23/how-to-flash-a-custom-recovery-on-android-tutorial
I wonder if it can be used to generate an image of your phones current state to create your own back up and file it on your sd card.

Haven't tried to do any type of restore yet. I have managed to get the boot and recovery IMG files and used adb to get a copy of the system files.
(The LG-Black Dev's are using these files to develop their Gingerbread version.)
I might try to figure out how to do this from the link you gave. If I do, I will post what I find out.
Honestly though, after guinea pigging the root and CWM without total bricking the phone, I'm afraid of pushing my luck too far.
It would be nice if some more people would jump in and help with some of this but I guess the phone is to new to have very many users. Seems like I see the same few names on the three Marquee forums I know of.

I know what you mean. I'm starting to think you are the only one out there with a rooted Marquee.
Hang in there... I think once all the chaos from the iphone settles down, more people will have the Marquee. Most stores in my area are saying they don't even have it. They don't even have them on display.

any response from koush?
Also, I was wondering...
I often download files from peers in forums instead of going strait to the source. I saw that you got CWM from the android marketplace via Rom Manager...
Do you have the premium version?
market.android.com/details?id=com.koushikdutta.rommanager
also, I was reading at the link above and noticed you can email koush directly for help with CWM via [email protected]
Have you tried this?
Also, according to this;
//market.android.com/details?id=com.koushikdutta.rommanager.license
it mentions the following;
"Did flashing break your recovery? Flash an alternate/experimental one and flash back to fix!"
I'm still looking for a place to download alternate/experimental ones but I think the latest is here;

where it says "ROM Manager (Changelog)"
also, there are other methods of getting in touch with koush here;

wait...this works for CWM and gets you into recovery...but the recovery itself is still temperamental correct? still no way to create a nandroid backup?

hey guys, I have done a backup of my stock rom from cwm, I think it worked, but I have no reason to flash it back yet, I'm as geeked as everyone else for roms on this thing, but I still miss my captivate, firefly was awesome

well then, THAT's interesting. So everything appears to be working in CWM for you? Just using the OPBlack version?
Rmcc seemed to imply it would work here:

But I honestly haven't had enough time to delve into this much. I had the Marquee for about 2 weeks or so, but had to temporarily switch for work-related reasons. Will probably switch back to it as my personal phone, so I would love to see / hear some progress on this.

Didn't work quit as well for me... When I tried to mount the cache I got an error. The only way I could get out of the recovery screen was to 'Wipe Cache Partition'
By the way THANK YOU for posting that. I could not figure out how to get out of that screen. My phone is rooted and I have been waiting for people to develop... but it looks like there are not many people developing on the Marquee

there is another one TWRP , now a new touch recovery , sounds interesting , downloading now

Just tried it, works great so far, haven't noticed any bugs, thanks for sharing!

yeah , well , everything is cool , just one small problem , seems there is no power off or reboot option ... have to push power button.
but push power button is boot into system ...

sorry but i have everything...i dont know where is your problem. "seems there is no power off or reboot option". In first screen there is "reboot system now", in advanced there is "reboot recovery"

Yeah I see those too.

Can anyone make this flasheble, as i cant get fastboot to work.

Flashed it. Working great so far. The scrolling of directories is kinda awkward. I'm using the capactive buttons to navigate the directories now (Menu to go down, Search to execute), seems easier and less accidental click from scrolling.

Just successfully flashed OUDHS CWM-based Recovery 1.0.3.0 successfully...haven't tried much of the functionality until I fix my phone from the bootloop I put it in.
Something I did notice while navigating around the menu using my volume keys was that the screen was only refreshing every other keypress. I know that the state of the program was changing but the screen was only redrawing every other input.

confirmed test 3 did not fix the touch screen issue. cwm will sometimes double click and is tricky to navigate with the graphics issue but functions normally otherwise. did a full wipe and restore booted fine both times with no permissions issues. this was garwyns version btw.

[Recovery]【T210R & T210】 Unofficial CWM Adv. Edition PhilZ Touch

This is an old unofficial version. Please go to THIS thread for the updated, official version.
All information below this line pertains to the old, unofficial version. Use the link above to get the official version.
Updated (v2) Slow recovery bootup fixed.
This is an unofficial version of CWM Advanced/PhilZ Touch recovery. Main thread located HERE. Go to the main thread to learn about all the features.
It uses the zImage and ramdisk provided by @ketut.kumajaya with a few tweaks to get it working made by myself.
Please take a moment to say thanks and/or donate to @ketut.kumajaya for helping us out.
It takes a few seconds longer for CWM based recoveries to boot than the stock recovery, so be patient.
Credits go to:
@Phil3759 for the advanced features
@ketut.kumajaya for the working zImage
and of course Koush and the CyanogenMod team
Link to kernel source https://github.com/kumajaya/android_kernel_samsung_lt02
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If the on-screen menu doesn't show, hit one of the up/down buttons at the bottom to get it to appear. This is the same issue seen with CWM recovery and is caused by booting into recovery with the key combo. I highly recommend using the Quick Boot app or another software method of booting recovery.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Instructions:
1. Download ODIN on your computer.
2. Power off the device.
3. Restart in "Download Mode" by holding the "HOME" button, "Volume Down" and "Power" all at the same time (for about 5 seconds).
4. Hit the "Volume Up" to enter download mode.
5. Start the ODIN exe program. Un-check Auto Reboot. See notes about ODIN below.
6. Connect the device via USB to your computer. Verify the device shows as "Added" in the Message box. If it doesn't show then you need the Samsung USB drivers (just install KIES to get them).
7. Select "PDA" then choose the recovery file you want to flash.
8. Hit "START". Wait for Odin to finish (~10-15 seconds). The message area will display "RES OK" when finished.
9. Wait for device to restart. Skip this step if you unchecked auto reboot.
10. Restart directly to recovery mode before rebooting into OS.(Hold POWER, Volume UP, and the HOME button all at the same time. When you see the Samsung Logo, let go of the POWER button, but keep holding the Volume UP and HOME until you see the recovery screen).
11. To get the Internal SDcard to be recognized properly, choose the Advanced option; then touch the "Storage set to" option. It should change from "/data/media/0" to "data/media/". Then reboot recovery using the "Power Options".
I also recommend adjusting the Menu Height to a smaller value using the PhilZ settings option.
Notes about ODIN
--Make sure that "Re-Partition" is NOT checked.
--Auto Reboot can be un-checked if the recovery doesn't flash correctly on your device. Some have reported that un-checking Auto Reboot fixes this issue. If you un-check Auto Reboot, you will need to reboot the device yourself (refer back to step 10).
Instructions for recovery flashable version:
Boot into your previously installed custom recovery.
Select the Install Zip option.
Find the recovery zip.
Flash.
Reboot recovery.
Enjoy your new recovery.

I'm not sure what you mean about the time. It is not supposed to be in the status bar on the lock screen, and that has nothing to do with this recovery.

In regards to it reacting slowly, since you complained about that with TWRP also, I believe that is a problem with your tablet. I can't imagine it working any faster on mine. Every selection is immediate.
Keep increasing the gui height until it goes to a lower value (around 100 it switches).

Hi, i have a t217A tab 3 7.0 and it has a msm8960 cpu not the msm8930 you mentioed earlier, which shows up under cpuz as a Krait 1.73 gighz
when i boot to recovery it says encrypted and the flash fails. im guessing i need a diffrent version. is there a current build for the touch screen recovery for this version already made and in place ? if so could someone link me ?
and i had a q , you mention that this should be flashed via already flashed recovery , is this mandatory or can i flash the touch version via odin straight away ? do i need to flash the regular non touch recovery then flash the touch or can i get away with directly flashing the touch recovery without first flashing the non touch?
I have rooted already , the method on this forum worked for the t217A

Instructions for ODIN
1. Download ODIN on your computer.
2. Power off the device.
3. Restart in "Download Mode" by holding the "HOME" button, "Volume Down" and "Power" all at the same time (for about 5 seconds).
4. Hit the "Volume Up" to enter download mode.
5. Start the ODIN exe program. Un-check Auto Reboot. See notes about ODIN below.
6. Connect the device via USB to your computer. Verify the device shows as "Added" in the Message box. If it doesn't show then you need the Samsung USB drivers (just install KIES to get them).
7. Select "PDA" then choose the recovery file you want to flash.
8. Hit "START". Wait for Odin to finish (~10-15 seconds). The message area will display "RES OK" when finished.
9. Wait for device to restart. Skip this step if you unchecked auto reboot.
10. Restart directly to recovery mode before rebooting into OS.(Hold POWER, Volume UP, and the HOME button all at the same time. When you see the Samsung Logo, let go of the POWER button, but keep holding the Volume UP and HOME until you see the recovery screen).
After you get the custom recovery working, you can flash the latest SuperSu zip to get root.
Your internal SDcard will get mounted as "/data/media". So look there for any files saved to the internal card.
Notes about ODIN
--Make sure that "Re-Partition" is NOT checked.
--Auto Reboot can be un-checked if TWRP doesn't flash correctly on your device. Some have reported that un-checking Auto Reboot fixes this issue. If you un-check Auto Reboot, you will need to reboot the device yourself (refer back to step 10).
Instructions for recovery flashable version:
Boot into your previously installed custom recovery.
Select the Install Zip option.
Find the recovery zip.
Flash.
Reboot recovery.
Enjoy your new recovery.
Flash at own risk!!!!

Loaded, but the buttons do not match the strong places of pression, which will invoke the appropriate menu button.
The same is within of menu: you press on an arbitrary place, but opens something another.

Thanks for the report, will look into it.

Hey @ketut.kumajaya, it seems the touchscreen needs to be rotated for this one. I would attempt to fix it, but we all know you can do it much, much better (and I don't want to start all over without your kernel source)
EDIT: I used the new zImage from the 1.8 T210(R) version in my T210(R) TWRP and the touchpoints are off in it as well. Looks like the previous touch orientation fix you made got overwritten with the new update.
Looks like it only needs to be rotated clockwise 90 degrees (not flipped, just rotated).

Did you set the touchscreen orientation to landscape?
Code:
write /sys/devices/virtual/sec/tsp/orientation 6

Not true...your internal SDcard is mounted as "/data/media". Navigate to that folder and you will find everything on your internal card. You will have to hit the "Up one level" button to find it.
EDIT: I will add a note to the OP about this.

Now that there's root and recovery, has anyone flashed a successful ROM for the T211?

Didnt test all the function yet...but stable for daily use, still laggy sometimes, I wonder when we got official 4.2 or skip to 4.4? Anyhow, just test the rom yourself based on cuŕiosity..
