Droid-X Clockwork Recovery image. Deodexed Rooted, Froyo'd

From AllDroid.org
Thanks to Mike919 we now have a clockwork recovery backup that you can recover to your phone.
What does this give me? well it gives you a way to restore your phone to its default state but it has already been rooted and deodexed.
If you dont know what root or deodexed are then please search around the forums. I'm sorry but i simply dont have the time to answer a thousand questions.
How do i use this?
Well it's very simple.
Unzip the file
On your sdcard make a folder in sdcard\clockworkmod\backup with todays date on it like \sdcard\clockworkmod\backup\2010-08-23.23.30.41
Extract the contents of This File into that folder. There should be 5 files inside when you are done.
Install Koush's Clockwork recovery (if you haven't already)
Boot into Koush's recovery
Choose restore, then navigate to the folder you created earlier
Choose restore. Then follow the instructions on the screen.
When you reboot you will have a totally clean system, with Froyo 2.2, already rooted. and fully deodexed.
I can this tell you that this does work. I have done it myself. I also know of one other person that has done it with no problems.
Please grab the file while you can, who knows how long this will stay up.
oh, also it has a black bar with transparency. Other versions will follow i'm sure you can always replace your framework-res.apk and services.jar if you don't like it.
again search alldroid if you need help with this.

Awesome thank you Mike

Stupid question but you know its gonna be asked.... you need to be on 2.2 before applying the 2.2 nandroid correct?

Yeah.

If we wipe, flash this, then nandroid our original 2.2 data partiton but keep the new deodexed system partition we will be all set correct?

are we suppose to wipe or just restore this?

Nice, thanks for the heads up. Worked flawlessly! Teenfaces' black status bar looks gorgeous! =)
@cbaty08: there is a link at the very end of first post. Here:

@mach330: just restore using provided files. I didn't wipe, was on rooted leaked froyo.

thanks...so it retains all our stuff? aight...gonna try this out in a bit. been having problems with nandroid backup on froyo. didn't wanna go to sbf flash to do this again. i'm hoping this will fix this problem.

NO! It WILL install a fresh froyo build. This will probably come late to you though...

ok thanks...hmm..now i'm debating. you think this will fix my nandroid backup problem?

Do an advanced restore and only redo the system partition not the data and you'll keep your data and get the improved system files

crap...i guess i answered my own question. tried to restore only the system and i get:
E:can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0 (or /dev/block/mmcblkp1)
(Device or resource is busy)
Can't mount /sdcard
Does this mean i gotta do an sbf flash?

Can anyone confirm if this will work or not? So far we've gotten two conflicting answers.

So since I was born yesterday.....
What's the difference between this and the root/2.2 leak I did the other day?. Is this blur free in all ways? Cause that's the only reason I would wipe and go through all those proper steps is to be 100% blur free.

I formatted my internal and external sdcards today by mistake, now my download folders are gone, I was tolded this is normal since formatted deletes all data on card which is why my download folder is gone. I've tired downloading rom and modded recovery all day but I cant find them in root exploror anywheres, than I Google a random picuture and tried to save the picture but the download was uncuccessful. Can I fix this?

It sounds like this should be fixable, but could you please provide more information on your current setup (Android version, if it's a custom ROM, etc).
As far as getting ROMs and CWM to your phone, you may want to try downloading the roms/modded recovery on a PC (if one is available), then move them over to your phone. If everything was formatted and you're having trouble using root explorer, it might just be easier to do it that way.

Before today my phone was fine, it displayed downloads that I've done etc. I was trying to install a downloaded rom thru cwm but it didn't display "install from sdcard" with in cwm. I than clicked format sdcard for some dumb reason and It put me in my current state.

I see that you're on your phone now, which answers the question of whether or not you can boot, so that's good. If you've formatted your Internal SD card (which it sounds like you did - did it get rid of all your files on the phone?), you could probably just do a Titanium backup of what you still have and reinstall your ROM (assuming you're on a custom rom). That would likely correct the issue.

Assuming that it wasn't deleted in the format, I'd recommend reflashing whatever rom you're on and restoring your apps from Tibu.

the tibu backup is no more it would have been deleted when he formatted. look in your browsers settings for the default download directory. or make a folder on your sdcard called downloads and set it to there as default....

Yep, my back up is gone. I went to the download directory and all downloads in there say download unsuccessful, I than went to sdcard in root exploror and created a folder named download. I tried saving a few Google pics and they still come up download unsuccessful, I even tried downloading a file from xda and its not in my new download folder. I didn't set it as default since I don't know how to set it, I didn't see any options. Getting very frustrated.

That appeared to work, I saved a random picture and it was saved in my new download folder. But when I try and download the modded e3 signature file (which is what I've been trying to do) I see a quick download meter start and finish, after its done I can select close or open, if I click open I'm brought to rom manager with an install prompt were I can select or de-select a few things, than I'm put into recovery but it dkesnt show any place to install from sdcard. When I had to do this on my infuse once I downloaded the modded recovery it was listed in my downloads, id extract, copy and paste over original recovery but I don't see it anywhere in my captivates files.

Hmm It should be in the download directory...
You could always dl the recovery file to your pc and copy it over to the phone.

If the phone isn't showing up in any way when you hook it up to the computer (i.e. you can't select to mount the phone from the notification drop-down), that would be your option.

Before I say more - do you currently have the android default recovery or some version of CWM installed on your phone?

You're pasting in the modded 3e recovery I assume, that's in a place usually mounted read only. Using root explorer, there is a little button on the top right that says mount r/w press that THEN paste in.

I installed a different texting app and still no pics.

Well after many wipes/formats and every thing else I finally have everything working.
I can verify that multiple cache wipes, dalvik wipes and system formats do the job.
I'm not sure exactly how many I done but it was a lot.
I just sit there and wiped, formatted, wipe, format, wipe, format so on and so on and it finally took, I even installed 3 times over and over each other.
The ROM works great.
All the phones might have the same parts and look the same, but for some reason they don't act the same.

[TOOL] 1Click_CWR

I have made a small utility that will install CWR on the LG thrill. Untested on the optimus 3D....
Thanks to designgears for outlining the original procedure in this tread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1257588
WARNING:
Your warranty is now void.
I take no responsibility for bricked, dead, or unresponsive phones. If you are uncomfortable using this tool, then DON'T. Furthermore, I created this utility for my phone, and decided to share it with the community.
This utility was coded in c# in a windows 7 environment. I can only speak to this working on windows 7. If it works on XP, great; but I only tested it on my windows 7 system. Confirmed working in XP by: gentzleon
Before you begin:
Phone must be rooted!!! Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1251663
Must have an SD card in the phone.(This is used for the storage of the recovery backup)
Drivers MUST be installed! ( Direct Link: Here)
Instructions:
1). Plug phone into computer via USB cable.
2). Turn on USB Debugging mode
3). Launch 1click_CRW with admin privilages (right click->run as Administrator)
4). Enjoy
Notice
Because people have different computer speeds and the fact I wrote this in 10 minutes, there is a pause between each command. Just click 'ok' when the popup messages says waiting.....Its fool proof.
ALSO: I did not put any error checking in it because I did not feel the need. I created this for fun and decided to share it.
If you see an error from ADB like no devices found, make sure your drivers are installed and restart the computer.

This installed cwr just fine but when i try to make a backup or install a new rom it says error cannot mount sd card does anyone know y this would happen

Freaking sweet. I was hoping to find something easier to do this with that having to go through the other method to flash GB Roms. That is what this is for right?

All those having problems installing, make sure all your permissions to /data are checked-(all 9) if not you will not be able to install recovery...
To set permissions you must;
Have root explorer or the free app ES file explorer.
---Navigate to /data and press and hold
---Select properties
---you will see at the bottome where it says permissions an option to change
--- Select change and make sure all are checked.,
---click out, reboot phone and it should all work..
There have been instances where the folder will change back permissions or not save the new permissions so just perform it again... Enjoy the 1 click CWM Now If this could be included in the script it will make it fool proof.....

I think I may change this app and create it in a windows form...I will have a button that follows the same procedure as it does now, and a second button to fix permissions..However, should I have it apply the permission change to the entire /data? Seems unsafe to me, but I'm paranoid.
Also, work has been long, and my wife and I are in the final process of buying a new house. So that is why I haven't been on much.

Easy Guide for updating to ICS Leak

To make things a bit simple for noobs like myself I though I would share on what I did with the links of each process.
Prepare Step 1
Your phone must be on either a unmodified 902 or 905 system in order to get this to happen. To do this visit here and follow instructions to get back to stock 902 and to also root phone if desired. http://www.droidhive.com/forums/index.php?/topic/87-902-bionic-pathsaver-for-windowslinuxmac/ . Make sure that you get VooDoo Root Keeper from the Play Store to backup your Root permissions after the upcomming OTA updates. Then update OTA to 905 via phone settings.
Prepare Step 2
Go to this link to download leak. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1727605
You will need to place this on the root of your external storage in order for stock recovery to see it. After this make sure that your Bionic is fully charged before going into stock recovery.
1. Backup your internal storage, Music, Documents, and Picture, you are going to have to format the internal storage for this one. Before Format pull external out so that it doesn't get formated as well.
2.Power down fully charged Bionic and reinsert external sd card.
3. Hold down both volume - and volume + buttons and press the power button
4. Using volume - highlight Recovery and press volume +, you will boot into stock Recovery. If you see the Android with the ! symbol press both volume buttons to see the recovery selection menu.
5. Using the volume buttons o hightlight selection and power button to select install update.
6. Set Bionic down and go have a Sandwich. When done reboot phone and enjoy

Good instruction set. However, I'd add the MD5's and tell people that they -need- to be checked. Too many people run into trouble and don't know what's going on, then after running around in circles discover it was just a bad download that could have been verified in a couple of seconds at the beginning.
Also, no need to remove the external sd card. It will not be formatted.

I advise removal of external only because it happened to me once when I selected format in the system settings. I would of posted the md5 but they should be listed in the links posted. If needed will do.

Might also want to mention the deal about CWM Recovery. If you have had it before it needs to be uninstalled and all traces of it removed or it may cause an error when flashing and abort the flashing process. To remove traces just use root explorer and navigate to /system/bin and delete a file named hijack and one named logwrapper then change the name of the logwrapper.bin to just logwrapper this will prevent the system check portion of the flashing to come back with a error.

Just going by the processes that I took to get it installed guys. Before I had to FXZ to 902 I had KIN3TX_v1.0 installed with Bootstrap recovery, tryed to install a theme that went bad. Well the phone keeped bugging me to update 905. So when I had time to charge my phone back I went ahead and installed it over stock 902. Then I found the treads on this forum about the leak. So I decided to go ahead and try it. I have been running .2233 for 2 days and installed Set CPU to keep battery use at minimum. I will be also posting some Set CPU profiles so that maximum battery use can be used when I get the time.

Ahh ok, i thought you were piecing together a definitive guide.... lol

Well it is a guide for those that don't have a whole lot of ex on the phone. The links are placed here so to not confuse those that don't know what they need. No harm no foul .

However, I'd add the MD5's and tell people that they -need- to be checked.

1. Backup your internal storage, Music, Documents, and Picture, you are going to have to format the internal storage for this one. Before Format pull external out so that it doesn't get formated as well.

How do I format the internal storage?

Please ignore my NOOB questions above. I was successfully able to flash .230 on my bionic.
