Adding scripts/commands to recovery?

I posted a while back about the different recovery images here and have since been using Darch_RA-1.7 for everything (Firerat, GB ROMS, etc.).
When I change my custom partitions, there are two times when I need to ADB (one is arguable). I have to reboot into recovery during one point of modifying mtd partitions with Firerat Recovery, which can be accomplished by pulling the battery and just booting with HOME+POWER keys. It would be super handy though if there was a reboot into recovery command in my recovery image. I know this is in CW 3.x.
Secondly, and more important, is that to limit hickups in google restoring my settings when I load a new ROM, I need to apply s0be's fix before my first boot, which essentially is just making a dir /cache/download and then fixing the permissions for it.
I would love it if these commands could be apart of Darch's 1.7 recovery so that I could re-flash on the go without a computer for ADB shell. I am not completely sure how to do this (modifying the recovery binary), and moreover if I need to find the original source or just unpack and use the binaries. This little conversation was somewhat helpful.
Thoughts? Help?

Replying to my own post, but I had an idea that to address s0be's fix, I could possibly make it into a signed zip, of course assuming that would work (permissions?). Just a thought.

If your using Ra1.7 you don't have to pull the battery when using fr. Just choose the power off option and reboot with home+power. I know its off your op topic but I'd figure I'd post incase you were still using fr.

And as for the s0be market fix, it is no longer necessary if you use firerat v1.5.8 and set your cache partition to 18

So that's why people have an 18mb cache.

Well that explains why I see a bunch of folks using 18 as the cache size, but didn't see that in the thread. My most recent repart with with 128 and 18, which although is a bit excessive for the cache (only using 4 of 18), will eliminate the need for s0be's fix.
For the record, I went ahead and did it anyways. Also, you can definitely just use the power off function (or battery pull) in Darch's 1.7 to get reboot to recovery.
Bottomline: I would say this is solved for my specific issues with Firerat MTD. Also, Darch's 1.7 is perfectly capable of installing GB ROMs.

[RECOVERY][MOD][O2X][02-Nov-2011] Clockwork 5.0.2.7.111102

First of all, this is not my work. I only compiled it.
This is the usual ClockworkMod recovery, version compiled from the CM7 sources with additions/modifications by j_r0dd. What I've done is only to compile it for the LG Optimus 2X. For details, check out the link to j_r0dd's original thread for the Nexus S.
The credits go to Koush for the recovery itself and to j_r0dd for most of the modifications.
j_r0dd said:
This is based on the latest CM7 source which I modified for myself. I take no credit for the recovery whatsoever, but I will take all the blame for my mods . We all know this is Koush's hard work. Just some things were driving me crazy personally. First was the confirmation menu. I really got sick of scrolling through all those "No"s just to flash something, so i changed it for me personally and just thought I would share. I also created a proper wipe menu. I got sick of some wipes in the main menu and the rest in the "advanced" menu. I made this more Amon_RA like. See the attached screenshot for my changes. That change has led to a few others by me. flash with fastboot or flash_image. THESE ARE NOT IN ROM MANAGER. Also if you have an issue with this take it up with me NOT Koush.

(old) recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.7.111027-j_r0dd_mod-p990.zip
Change log:
02-Nov-2011 (v5.0.2.7):
Merged 5.0.2.7 sources from CM7 repo again (some bugfixes)
Added option to wipe cache partition and dalvik cache at the same time
27-Oct-2011 (v5.0.2.7):
Merged 5.0.2.7 sources from CM7 repo (support for internal/external sdcard in backup/restore)
Now that Koush added backup support for internal/external sdcard I'll only build onw version (exernal sdcard in file lists) If you really want one build for internal sdcard, let me know and I'll do it.)
07-Oct-2011 (v5.0.2.6):
Rearranged wipe menu to avoid accidental factory wipes
Added "Reboot Bootloader"
Moved SD Card partitioning into a function of its own for both int/ext SD card
Merged 5.0.2.6 sources from CM7 repo
Added a menu choice of ext2/ext3/ext4 when partitioning SD card
As of this version, I'll only be providing one img file. It seems 5.0 has native support for internal/external SD card. Need confirmation of this, as I don't have this phone myself.
25-Sep-2011 (v5.0.2.3):
Updated to j_r0dd's 5.0.2.3 version. Currently no changes made by myself.
17-Jun-2011 (v4.0.0.5):
Moved the "Wipe data/factory reset" to the bottom of the wipe menu to reduce the risk of accidental factory wipes.
19-Jun-2011 (v4.0.0.5):
Added "Reboot bootloader" option in advanced menu.
Added the ext4 modifications kindly supplied by roalex. Needs testing. Please make a proper nandroid backup with a proven working recovery version before trying this.
20-Jun-2011 (v4.0.0.5):
Added "Show log" in the advanced menu. This can help when reporting errors here. Use it.
21-Jun-2011 (v4.0.0.5.z110621):
Reverted and correctly added roalex's ext4 additions.
Modified recovery.fstab for ext4 support on some devices.
23-Jun-2011 (v4.0.0.5.z110623):
Reverted back to ext3 for the meantime, since I didn't get ext4 working. Any suggestions are welcome!
06-Jul-2011 (v4.0.0.5.z110706):
Added "Advanced backup". Now you can backup/restore individual partitions.
Some other commits from other devs in github
Changed file limit from 10000 to 50000 in unyaffs. Should help when restoring large data partitions fails.
17-Jul-2011 (v4.0.1.0.110717):
Rebased completely on j_r0dd's 4.0.1.0 source and removed roalex's ext4 additions, as it wasn't working for everyone. Now trying with the original ext4 support which is included in CWM.
20-Jul-2011 (v4.0.1.4.110720):
Bug fixes
Two versions. One for internal storage and one for external microSD card (same zip file)
Disclaimer
These recoveries are compiled using the latest commits from koush, j_r0dd and others. That means they haven't been thoroughly tested and might have minor/major issues. I take no responsibility for any damages this thing might cause, but most things should work as intended. If you want something guaranteed to work, I think you should stick with one of the older versions.

I tried to change kernel and the device is locked on the LG screen, I solved with smartflash.

that's not even related to this recovery mod.... I had the same problem with "original" 4.0.0.5 and after flashing vorkernel had the same problem.... I solved it with restoring nandroid backup. The kernel does not work for me with CM latest nightlies.

So can someone please test the newest recovery version? I'd like to know if ext4 works as it should.

To have ext4 you also need a kernel with ext4 support (correct me if im wrong) So which kernel has the ext4 support?

Well, see, the problem isn't really which zips you can or cannot flash. It's more about whether you can flash at all or if ext4 works properly. If nandroid backup and restore works or not. I'm fairly certain that all kernels can be flashed, but how well they work is something that I don't see would be affected by this recovery.

Hmm doesnt seem to wipe correctly...after doing a clean install of CM7 I still have all my old apps and settings. That said I did install it in an odd way (replaced Paul's recovery with it and ran his .bat script). What is the easiest method to flash recovery?

That is the easiest way.

Exactly how did you wipe? Did you use the "format" commands in "mounts and storage" or did you use "clear data/factory reset"? I'm starting to think that the format command is not working.

Didn't go near the format command in mount and storage. In the specific "Wipe" menu --> tried factory reset etc/cache partition...all seemed to work way to quickly to actually be doing anything. Like I'd select wipe data/factory reset, hit yes and it would say completed after like 1 second (usually takes more than 5 with regular recovery). And then of course when I rebooted my device my data was still there, nothing wiped (except perhaps dalvik, but who knows).

[MOD] EXT4All Continued + Now with TWRP 2.3 Support

The purpose of this thread is to host a location and continue support for a really neat ext4 mod.
IMPORTANT: If you flash the no data limit mod you need to do it after every update or your data, which won't be lost will be hidden by the contents of the data data partition.
I'm going to keep this brief. The original thread was closed so I wanted to have a new location where everyone can find the files. But this is a new thread for Jermaine151's and my EXT4all mod.
Below is the original thread which already has a lot of useful information:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1315372
Here is where you can find most of if not all the EXT4All files:
http://dinc.does-it.net/EXT4_Mods/
Sorry this thread isn't too organized but I threw one together so people could post on it with their comments.
This mod should work on all AOSP ROMs including ICS ROMs and MIUI. It's been confirmed on CM7 and MIUI but I've also tested on CM9. It should also work on all Sense ROMs and does work on every Sense ROM I've tested. Be sure to flash a newer version of the gingertiny kernel if you use a Sense ROM as the kernel version flashed to add ext4 compatibility is out of date.

FAQ
Q. How do I know if the ext4 mod(s) worked?
A. The best way is to do the following from terminal:
su
mount | grep /data
It should show a line with /data and ext4 and, if it has the no data limit, also a line with /data/data and ext4. If you're on an ICS/JB ROM it will show ext4 anyways. The best way to tell with the new version of the mod is to see if noauto_da_alloc shows in the results of the above commands.

Hey tiny, thanks for opening this btw. Wasn't sure if I should post here or on ur kernal thread but my girls dinc was having the data limit problem so I wiped cache and dalvic, flashed ext4 no data limit normal dalvic then flashed ur newest kernal (3/11 date). And I have been having the hardest time keeping her phone stable. I've tried every governor sav2, interactivex, ondemand, even sa, tried deadline, sio schedulers, even tried raising the voltages to a post u had on ur kernal thread, page 85 or something (wasn't sure if I should set the min and max of the voltages for the same thing, but that's wat I did). But she still says its very unstable. She's running stock+ 3.01 and she DOES have a cheap ebay battery in her phone, not quite sure how much that plays a role in the problem. She's at work right now so I can't pull any logs, but I know ull probably need a logcat? Or I dunno. If u could gimme directions on anything I should post to assist u. And I'm not overclocking at all for the record. On stock kernal she never had any stability issues, uptime of 200 hours+. But urs is definitely snappier and that damned data limit is the main reason y I even switched her over to begin with. Thanks tiny in advanced for everything u do!!!

I'd prefer the kernel thread.
And I'll need a last_kmsg. Just copy /proc/last_kmsg with root explorer or another file explorer and attach it to a post on the kernel thread. Since you most likely eliminated undervolting by using the voltages on page 85 of the kernel thread, then it's possible the battery has an effect. I've heard that poorly made batteries can cause issues that stock batteries don't have so further deviation from stock may have an influence. Either way, I'll look at that log once you get it. Make sure not to battery pull until you can copy that log and try to do it within 24 hours of the last reboot to be safe.

the following thread contains very simple and plain english directions for using this MOD. it helped me, and it was my first time rooting. Thanks also to tiny4579 for posting this new thread.

Question about this mod, I am running CM7.2, RC2, and onto rc3 soon.
I am having random resets, problems w/ my phone freezing, a mysterious message "sorry, process system is not responding", and other various issues. Could it be that the mod is causing some problems for my phone, or more about something that wasn't cleaned out when i flashed over a nightly?

Try a logcat before wiping which i would suggest in the end or else we won't know. I don't think the mod would cause that though.
Also pull /proc/last_kmsg.

I've been running various ICS roms and switched back to Warm rev 58. Upon installing the latest kernel and the Ext4 mod. I am unable to install apps. Any idea what may be causing this. I wasn't sure if it was the rom or not do I did an update with SVN and installed that with the same results. I have a nandroid with just the rom and all the apps I want, but would like to overclock and the stock kernel won't allow. And would also like to be able to install a new app should one arise.

When I tried to install them it said it was going to replace an existing app and then said app not installed.

Try fix uids in amon ra recovery. Amon ra should be listed in from manager. I don't think it's the same as fix permissions in cwm which I believe there is file system based. From looking at your logcat there are a lot of unknown permission errors. Let me know. I'm at work so didn't have a lot of time to respond but wanted to check briefly.

so, you think i should try fixing user id's in amon ra recovery.
and it should be listed in ROM manager, right?
Now, here's the question, if i'm going to be trying the new RC3 in CM7, and this time i am going to do a clean install, erasing everything. would i still need to fix permissions?
or maybe i should try flashing over RC2 and then fixing permissions?

Always worth a shot.. If you have the spare time try to flash over and fix permissions as 2nd~to-last thing you do before rebooting, ext mod should be last. Same with if you do a clean wipe to flash RC3 if flash over does not help.
I've personally never had an issue after a clean wipe with permissions, but it would not hurt if you did it anyway. It has been recommended when flash over though as a standard procedure. But only recommended

If you're wiping I don't see the point of fix permissions as it will fix it back to what it already probably is. I haven't fixed permissions in a while flashing ROMs and I've been ok. Force closes that I got that made me try fix permissions then weren't fixable with fix permissions anyway.
I would wipe, flash ROM, flash kernel if desired, then mod. Though if it's a sense ROM I would switch the order of kernel and mod flashing. So really you can do: ROM, ext4all mod, kernel after a wipe if you choose to wipe to fix your issue.

hey, flashed over to RC3! so far so good, slowly adding things back! will let everyone know how it goes!

Is there a possibility that all or part of this mod could be persistent over multiple wipings?
My reasoning for this question: I originally flashed the 1.0 normal mod on Nils' BGS. In the OP it says it converts the filesystem to ext4. Many moons later, and now on drk's CM9, terminal still lists cache and data as ext4. I did not, however, flash an ext4 mod on any versions of ICS. I know that when I do a factory reset, even though all is formatted, my sd-ext remains ext4, since I set it up that way for Link2sd. Is it possible that the data and cache blocks have also remained ext4 from the original use of this mod, despite wiping and formatting repeatedly?
...sorry...I was on the phone...

No, if you actually format the device like when the system runs the format command the filesystem will be ext4. However in your example of CM9 the ramdisk mounts data and cache as ext4. This will actually have a minor improvement over ext3. It'd still be an ext3 filesystem but loaded as ext4 so there's minimal performance gains.
In reality any time you flash a ROM or a boot.img type kernel (not any of mine) you will use the ramdisk of the ROM and reverse part of the effects. But since ROMs like CM9 and newer CM7 versions mount as ext4 you'll still see data and cache showing as ext4. Make sense? I never really did explain it properly before I think.

- Update SuperSU binary
- Fixed saving of backup partitions list
- Fixed saving of last used zip install folder
- Fixed backup of datadata on devices that use a separate partition for datadata
- Fixed some issues with the advanced wipe list (android_secure, can now wipe internal storage on data/media deivces and wipe data on the advanced list no longer formats the entire data partition)
- Fixed some problems with partitioning a SD card
- Various other bug fixes and tweaks
DOWNLOAD: TWRP-2.6.0.0-olympus.

Thanks!

I know it's all based on personal preferences but I was wondering if anyone can give me their opinions on which in their point of view is better? This version of twrp or the current version on cwm. I have done my research on the two but was wondering in the case of the Atrix which do people prefer.
Sent from my MB860 using xda app-developers app

If you have a lot of files and folders (like I do) you will love the ability to easily browse files in TWRP. In CWM pressing the volume key is a nuisance.
Being able to name the backup within TWRP is also very helpful.
I think CWM is simpler. If your touchscreen breaks you can still flash ROMs.
For the average user TWRP is probably the better choice. I have used it for a few months with no issue.

Thanks a lot

Ask in the thread for TWRP. I just package a flashable zip so I can't answer your question.

Yes you could.
If you want to be safe with the next TWRP update, you should use goomanager.

Tested: 2.6.0.0 and installed with gooManager:
openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-olympus.img /devs/OpenRecovery/olympus 1cde61c469fe949d2f113ba2047a8546
http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/olympus/
NOTE: inside goomanager (market), click: Flash Rom. Select "I don't have one. Install for me a recovery". Confirm (OK): openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-olympus

TURBO orthodox cleaning procedure for h811 prior flashing......

By popular requests, here is my everyday orthodox cleaning procedure prior flashing all these roms:
Prerequisites:
- Be in MM6 already.
- Make sure you upgraded your device via .kdz file only
Benefits: Your phone will feel like new.....
1) Resizing partitions:
- Flashing all these roms, sometimes cause resizing your system partitions and you wont even know it....... please do the following: Boot to recovery > wipe > advanced wipe > select system > click repair or change file system (bottom) > resize file system > swipe to resize (bottom)
Notes:
- If you get errors resizing these partitions (red), just reboot to recovery and repeat this procedure again, until no error shows up.
- You will do this resizing to three partitions (system, data and cache).
2) Wiping everything:
- Boot to recovery > click mount > check all partitions (but external_sd) > click home or back > click in advanced > file manager > in root "/" click check mark (bottom right) > click delete > swipe to delete
Notes:
- This procedure will delete all extra files and junk files on your partitions....... don’t worry the important partition's files are read only. So, after reboot everything will be fine.
- This procedure will freeze the phone with some errors (in red). Just take the battery out
- This procedure will wipe your internal storage
3) Boot to recovery and flash your new rom.
4) Profit!!
Enjoy your trouble free phone

hi Luis.... if you are in 20o and rooted, you can do this and will be good. I always like to do kdz as first choice, since it cleans and upgrade everything from scratch.......

Thanks for this! I tried this, this time wiping internal storage and it worked to help make my phone's woes go away!

Haha yea, luckily I have autobackups for everything

After wiping /, you can reboot into recovery via this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/how-to-manually-enter-to-recovery-mode-t3129643
I always forget the manual way (specifically, the part where you need to let go of the power button, then hold it again), so hopefully this helps someone here too.

to enter recovery mode using hardware buttons do this.
phone completly off.
press volumen down button, make sure you press firmly. never release this button keep it pressed.
then press power button. keep it press.... phone will turn on when you see LG logo
then do 2 clicks on power button keeps pressing adter 2 clicks then it should take you to recovery.

thanks for this. works well, though it didn't fix issues I've had with the phone.

Boot to recovery > click mount > check all partitions (but external_sd)... Not choose external_sd ?

Dont want to wipe external storage beacuse rhe rom you plan to flash will be stored there. As well as it doesnt need wipe for installs of roms. Its not part of the main partitions.

Thank you very much Turbo for directing me here.
Among the prerequisite, i am right now using cm13 based ROM and i flashed it using twrp.. How to fulfill the second requirement?
