[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.

Good job man, a lot of people have been waiting for this. Everyone get your rom on already!

Thanks. Sorry I didn't get to it as I said. That's why I love this place. If I drop something, someone else picks it up.

Sure no prob at all.

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.....

Can you manualy mount the sd card in Clock work by going to mounts and storage...and mount sd card? ALso, i know this is a stupid question, but do you have an sd card in your phone?

No I can't manually mount it and I dont have an external sd card do I need one? I just switched phones from the samsung captivate and did not need one to mount sd card Is it different for the thrill

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.

Figured it out thanks for this tool

thanks for your reply
I went there, but it seems that in menu it wont give me a copy option, and even when i do get that option it says that i can't save it to SD card, what permissions do i need to set there, maybe this the problem? and is it permission per files of folder ?? how can i set the option to copy from root to SD ?
sorry for bunch of questions :laugh::fingers-crossed:

Just use the app Super Backup. Backup apps option will copy app apks to sd card.

I'm rather sure it was created in the same folder the aroma-app-package-creator.jnlp was in and it's a zip file, there is no exe.
Probably yes but there was not really a problem you just need all the apk files and it takes some time but the result is very good and usefull.

My mistake, i was talking about the .jnlp file.
Btw i put in this paclage creator only the apk files and did not add any app folder.
I'm gonna try it again later on today. The first few try out the program worked pretty fast but no zip to be seen LOL. Lets see what will happen later on.
Sent from my ****** LGOB

Works flawlessly for me

:victory::victory::victory: YES, FINALLY. i made it :laugh::laugh: i think i know what was the problem. i didnt give enough time to create the .ZIP file. if would have waited for 20 secs longer on each earlier attempt, i would have had those files already. LMAO, i'm such a noob dang so stupid of me. well no i know to double check myself. hehe.

Take backup before doing this. all apps installed after this will go to SD card
1. Get the Google Android SDK
- Unzip the file and place the folder onto your desktop or anywhere that can be easily accessed.
- find the platform tools folder (default, it should be : adt-bundle/sdk)
2. - Open the folder called " platform-tools"
- shift+right-click anywhere inside the folder and choose [Open Command Window Here]
3. Go onto your Android phone and select USB debugging
- Go to [System settings > Developer Options] and select USB Debugging (if the option is grayed out, unplug your phone first)
4. Enter in the following
adb devices
adb shell pm set-install-location 2
adb shell pm get-install-location
5. - if you did it right, the last output should say: 2 [external]

1. I cannot confirm it will work
2. I am not responsible for any damages or loses..

Done that too and apps refuse to install, both from Google play, and apk files.

Umm wait, are we saying that despite the Z1 having SDCard support, you can't transfer apps to SDCard like you can on say a moto phone ?

Hi guys
I am unable to move my apps to the SD card , apply the fix from the above link ,but this unroots the phone so i have to run the SuperSUv2.zip file again to root the device , please advice
I am unable to move apps to my sd card on Sony Z1 C6903

With ROM modified (ParanoidAndroid, Cyanogenmod, SlimKat, ecc...) it is possible move apps to sd without other application (FolderMount, Link2SD, Apps2sd)?

R/W problem [solved kinda]

I've got a problem and can't seem to find a fix.
Been rooted and s-off for a couple weeks now.
I started out getting rooted through htc dev unlock and flashing Capt's recovery (the one that erased everything). I installed Viper and after some persistence a good guy talked me into s-off.
No problems.
Last night I decided to get crazy and try a new ROM. I chose Bad Boyz cause OMJ always seems like a legit person.
So to my problem in the best details possible (my apologies if all this is unnecessary)...
I did a backup (of course) and installed Bad Boyz ROM. During setup I hit a bump. HTC was restoring my setup and apps and it got stuck so I rebooted. Immediately after that I finished setup and then Google play kept giving me an "error 920".
I went into recovery and using Capt's 2.7.0.7 twrp fixed permissions. That didn't work. I restored my Viper backup. That didn't work. Using Titanium Backup I wiped Google play store data then cache. That worked!
However, one problem solved a bigger one arises.
I no longer have the ability to move files from internal sd to external.
I've tried everything I can think of. I've checked on ES File Manager it says it's R/W but fails when tried. Same with Root Explorer and FX.
I've wiped and reinstalled Viper but same problem.
I've read MassStash's thread and tried to go into system/etc/permission/platform but it already shows as rw.
So I'm stumped. Can anyone help?

Sir, simple I had same issue... When I open ES Explorer, I find the Root Explorer Option, tick it off, Exit out go to Superuser and clear any ES Explorer opinion you find. Go open ES Explorer and press back key when it asks for Root Permissions, go to Root Explorer option and tick it back on, accept Root Permissions! Then you press and hold on Root Options, It'll pop up a R/W menu where you can remount system, and external card, etc... If that doesn't do it it's got me beat!!

Can you save files to your sdcard? what about /sdcard/pictures/screenshots?
Did you ever use ADB or MTP in recovery to copy /sdcard data back to your device?

Yes, I am always saving files to my sd card including OTG. I don't believe I have used ADB or MTP to copy data back to the device, as I always use TWRP or tibu for app data. I have reflashed my phone a few times to the factory image only.
Would be decrypted create this?

Sounds like the permissions on that folder is screwed. Typically this happens when data is copied back to sdcard when booted into recovery...
It can usually be fixed by flashing this zip in recovery. I would recommend backing up your data first though.

He has a permissions issue on the stock-used screenshot folder. But yes, some apps do block it and give the same error. I forgot that
