[RECOVERY] j_r0dd-mb501-v2.0 (2.7.11)

**j_r0dd** · 08-27-2010, 07:47 PM

This recovery is based off of Amon_RA's source. I compiled it from source for the CliqXT/Quench. Just about all of this was from his hard work. I thank him for releasing his source and also KB7SQI for helping me compile my 1st kernel a while back. The version number is based on source/scripts.

Instructions:
1. download HERE
2. UNZIP FIRST!!! I ALREADY RENAMED IT TO recovery.img THIS TIME!
3. push or copy to sdcard
4.

Code:

adb shell 
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

For screenshots & change log go here

You may need to make sure there is no recovery in /system because this will over-write this on a reboot. use Root Explorer or ADB shell to remove this.

Code:

adb shell
cd system
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
rm recovery.img
mount -o ro,remount /dev/block/mtdblock1 /system
exit
exit

Thanks:
JesusFreke - for original recovery
Cyanogen - for his adding to JF's recovery
Amon_RA - for his adding to Cyanogen's recovery & his original Cliq recovery
Picolini - for the original background image I edited
KB7SQI - for helping me all along the way

Thanks!!!

I had to rename the .img to recovery.img but it still worked! My Cliq XT is in the J_r0dd recovery screen right now! w00t!

Thank you so much for bringing this excellent recovery to the Cliq XT. Works great!

**IllBlew** · 08-28-2010, 12:12 AM

So what exactly will this do for me?

**Skrilax_CZ** · 08-28-2010, 04:28 AM

Well taking nandroid backup, restoring it, having ADB in recovery etc.
Essential for flashing custom firmwares.

**noptuno** · 08-28-2010, 05:47 AM

Hello all, So I was wonder should I start trying firmwares like crazy or should I wait till someone compiles one FOR the Cliq XT? I would like to flash something now lol

anyone has any ideas something that COULD work? I mean I can always go back to my firmware... :P

Right now Im fixing permissions to the recovery so I can do a good Backup then Ill try anything I think will work I was wonder if I could try the Clokwork one... but I need to see the phones that support it and how stable they are... anyways

Keep up the good work and cheers

EDIT: I cant delete recovery.img I have tried ADB Shell and Root Explorer(allowing the app for superuser commands) and non worked, It gives me an error that says: "recovery.img cannot be deleted because the file system is read-only" and the permissions are: rw-r--r--

Anyone has any ideas on how to change its permissions Root Explorer wont let me because it will give me the same error as above.

**j_r0dd** · 08-28-2010, 06:17 AM

You can try cliq roms. They will probably work. Just remember to do a nandroid backup first, just in case

**teeedubb** · 08-28-2010, 07:02 AM

I had the same prob with deleting the recovery image, but I followed the instructions and I can access the new recovery menu on reboot, although I tried to do a nand backup and it froze after about 2 and a half rows of dots. I'm under the impression that it saves the back up to the sd card, is there something else I should be doing?

Also thanks for porting this app to the quench.

**mastermind278** · 08-28-2010, 07:04 AM

On root explorer there should be an option on the top that states "Mount as R/W" then it will give you read/write permissions.

j_r0dd I agree that Cliq roms might work to an extent.. Haven't actually tried yet.

I would suggest however using a 1.5 rom till we get a modified kernel as I am uncertain that the kernel from the Cliq will work properly on the XT.

I also want to add that I have tested the backup, restore, wipe and flash ZIP with your recovery and they work well.

I have installed a rom from the Quench (ZIP) and must say it runs amazingly fast. I was also able to skip setting up Motoblur Account. However, if you don't login to Motoblur some of the widgets show their name in Portuguese (on the bottom), nonetheless when you finally login and restart the widgets are in English.

Awesome!

Yeah that might be a problem for me since I dont know portuguese... lets see what else is out there...
