Open Recovery v1.46 [11/21/2010]

[Skrilax_CZ]

The old backups still go to nandroid/adbrecovery (having the nandroid.md5 file). Only the new backups are going to nandroid/openrecovery. It's in 1st post.

Thanx for answering Skrilax... problem is i dont see that folder created, there's just one folder (nandroid/openrecovery) ! do i have to create one, or im missing something?

[Skrilax_CZ]

Yes, if the folder doesn't exist, create it.

When I get to the screen with the triangle (and explanation mark), pressing volume up does nothing. Any ideas?

[Alex469]

You need press volume up and camera

[kalagas]

Or by pressing camera button and X button of hardware keyboard...

Yours is xt701? if that is so, press the small button next to the camera button... that's it, openrecovery should run or get an error...

Dear Skrilax_CZ, I got some problem on run the following script using the "Run Script" feature. Please help.

/system/bin/rm /system/app/*

/system/bin/rm /system/bin/busybox
/system/bin/rm /system/bin/su
/system/bin/rm /system/xbin/busybox
/system/bin/rm /system/xbin/su

/system/bin/cp -rf /sdcard/update/system/app/* /system/app/
/system/bin/chmod 644 /system/app/*

/system/bin/cp -rf /sdcard/update/system/bin/* /system/bin/
/system/bin/chmod 755 /system/bin/mot_boot_mode
/system/bin/chmod 755 /system/bin/mot_boot_mode.bin
/system/bin/chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
/system/bin/chmod 6755 /system/bin/su

/system/bin/cp -rf /sdcard/update/system/etc/* /system/etc/
/system/bin/chmod 644 /system/etc/sysctl.conf
/system/bin/chmod 644 /system/etc/permissions/com.motorola.android.jcifs.xml

/system/bin/cp -rf /sdcard/update/system/fonts/* /system/fonts/

/system/bin/cp -rf /sdcard/update/system/framework/* /system/framework/
/system/bin/chmod 644 /system/framework/jcifs-krb5-1.3.12.jar

/system/bin/cp -rf /sdcard/update/system/lib/* /system/lib/
/system/bin/chmod 644 /system/lib/modules/cpufreq_conservative.ko
/system/bin/chmod 644 /system/lib/modules/cpufreq_interactive.ko
/system/bin/chmod 644 /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko

/system/bin/cp -rf /sdcard/update/system/xbin/* /system/xbin/
/system/bin/chmod 755 /system/xbin/apps2sd

/system/bin/cp -f /sdcard/update/system/build.prop /system
/system/bin/cp -f /sdcard/update/system/default.prop /system

/system/bin/rm /data/system/packages.xml

The problem is that after run the script and the phone rebooted, the phone showed me the setup wizard (language selection, Google account, etc.) screen. And after I went through the wizard, I found the applications I moved to SD card before were lost, but those installed in phone memeroy were kept.

If I use a update.zip created by myself (modified with the "volez" tool), this script works good: No need to setup wizard again, applications moved to SD card before are kept.

I'm using OpenRecovery 1.45 on my Milestone. Phone firmware is UK 2.2.1 released by G.O.T.

Is there anything wrong with my script?

Thank you.

[Skrilax_CZ]

First:
Do not use "/system/bin/..." because there is dependency to what actually you have there. OpenRecovery busybox is in "/sbin" which is in the PATH, so just use "cp", "rm". Secondly the script should have header "#!/sbin/sh". I think that the responsible for the apps on the SD card is here "/system/bin/rm /data/system/packages.xml".

As for the reason about when you created the custom update.zip - to me it seems that the script wasn't called at all. (updater-script isn't a shell script).

[hua_wuxin]

Thanks for the reply.
Actually the above script is called by updater script when I use a custom update.zip.
Updater script is as below:

mount("MTD", "system", "/system");

ui_print("-- Executing /sdcard/update/update.sh...");
run_program("/system/bin/sh", "/sdcard/update/update.sh");

unmount("/system");

I'll try your suggestions first and then go back to you.

I removed the line "rm /data/system/packages.xml" then the result looked to be good: no setup wizard, apps moved to SD card were kept.

It's strange that "rm /data/system/packages.xml" results different when called by "Run Script" in OpenRecovery, comparing to called by custom update.zip.

Do you have any idea? Thank you.

[Skrilax_CZ]

For some reason, it wasn't executed.
