[NOT WORKING][MOD][GalaxyS][RECOVERY][10-Jun-2011] Clockwork 4.0.0.0 - new wipe menu

This does not work. I tried it and was corrected. The Samsug Galaxy S doesn't have a recovery partition according to users in this thread. Therefore, this thread has been discontinnued and should be closed.
First of all, this is not my work. I only compiled it.
This is the usual ClockworkMod recovery, compiled from the CM7 sources with additions/modifications by j_r0dd. What I've done is only to compile it for the Samsung Galaxy S (i9000).
The credits go to Koush for the recovery itself and to j_r0dd for the modifications.

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.

Original Nexus S thread with changelog here.
Only available in standard orange, I actually can't be bothered to find out how to make different color variants.
Download:
GalaxyS_recovery-clockwork-3.2.0.0-j_r0dd_mod.zip (Without the /sdcard mounting bug)
GalaxyS_recovery-clockwork-4.0.0.0-j_r0dd_mod.zip (Buggy when mounting /sdcard)
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.
Source code available here.

OK, and what am I to do with it?

Does this support RFS ?
Or only EXT4 ?

The recovery image is not supported to flash it on I9000.....

this is great.... i don't think it's Odin flashable rightnow, so not trying anything for now but would like to see it in flashable form. I am right, right?

The problem is I don't know anything about flashing an SGS phone. I simply assumed one uses an img file for the recovery. I'll see tomorrow if there's a way to make it work.

Stupid question?
Why remove it if all you need to do is touch /sdcard/clockworkmod/.no_confirm with stock recovery? and it does the same thing?

No, with this one you don't have so many "no" choices in the menu. And other differences in the menus as well. Look in the Nexus S thread for more details.

If you touch /sdcard/clockworkmod/.no_confirm on stock CWM you get dont get the "no" choices" menu changes I understand, but i dont see the point in removing the confirmation if you can turn it on / off by default

No, that's a different thing. In this recovery, you'll still need to confirm, but you won't have to go through so many "no's" to reach the "yes". You'll have no and yes as the two only choices. Also, j_r0dd moved some wipe features into main menu -> wipe. He also removed the obsolete "Install update.zip", seeing as people will browse directories and name files other things than update.zip nowadays. Things like that. That's the reason for the mod.

Updated OP to version 4.0.0.0.

Added back the 3.2.0.0 version in the OP so you won't have the /sdcard mounting issue. Hopefully it can be resolved soon, so we can start using the 4.0.0.0 version. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks for trying but a SGS does not have a recovery partition.
The recovery executable you have built needs to be embedded into the kernels zimage on SGS.
Its the one thing that stopped me building a psfmod recovery for SGS unlike every other device where recovery has its own kernel etc, the SGS recovery is in the main system kernel. Bad practice on Samsung for that.
People will have to wait.
FYI, CWM 4.0.0.1 is on githib now with sdcard bug fixed.

[RECOVERY] TWRP 2.3.3.1 Touch Recovery With exFat Support

Team Win Recovery Project 2.3, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.
Ziggy Is back again with a present
This recovery is same as TWRP Recovery 2.3.3.1 but wit exFat Support. This version does read and flash on exfat sdcards! The advantages with exfat is that it can handle files larger than 4gb in size. This recovery will read any card you stick in it, straight out of the box no formatting required
This is a .img file not Flashable zip!
Instructions :
Flashing the new image, which installs it as your recovery system. You do this from either an ADB shell or inside Terminal Emulator.
Code:
$ su
# dd if=/sdcard/<file>.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
You're done. Reboot!!
Hit Thanks if you like to!
Download : http://www.ziggy471.com/z471-twrp-att-2.3.3.0-exfat-123012.zip

Thanks to Dees_Troy and Huge thanks to Ziggy for this!

Booom..!

Yes, that link is not working, that was a test link for him to play with. I just uploaded everything to the files section of the project. Just make sure you download the appropriate one, since I have one for VZW and SPR also.
There are 3 ways of flashing, one with the image file, the other with the update zip method. For the image file:
From shell:

No, follow the instructions in the OP.

Encryption
Will this handle an encrypted FS? CWM does not and due to restrictions by a policy placed down by my company, if we want email we must be encrypted. Once my device is encrypted pulling nandroid backups becomes impossible.

Any chance of this update being updated on GooManager? I don't want to play the system by using the ADB,etc.

[MOD][GUIDE] AdAway on Write Protected /system Partitions [RECOVERY]

If your /system partition is write protected like on the HTC One (M7) and you try to use an advertisement blocker like AdAway, you will encounter that changes to /system/etc/hosts are lost after reboot and ad blocking doesn't work. You have basically 3 methods to get around this:
A) Link /system/etc/hosts to a partition AdAway can write to
Install symlink_hosts_to_data.zip via your custom recovery (like CWM) to create a symbolic link from /system/etc/hosts to /data/data/hosts. Afterwards you can configure AdAway to use /data/data/hosts (as shown in attached screenshot) and it will work perfectly with updates and everything.
B) Flash the hosts file directly
Install adaway_hosts_2014-04-14.zip via recovery. Now you have the hosts file as AdAway created on April 14th 2014. Disadvantage: you would need to flash again for updates. Advantage: you don't need the AdAway app at all. Note: many custom ROMs include such a hosts file already in their distribution.
C) Make /system partition writable
Use this kernel extension or a custom ROM including it to have the /system partition writable all the time. AdAway will work out-of-the-box then.
If you like to restore original state after having flashed one of the recovery zips above, use the attached restore_original_hosts.zip

Mantelinho said:
The attached recovery flashable update.zip modifies your /system/etc/hosts file just like AdAway or Adblock Plus would. Useful if your /system partition is write protected like on the HTC One (and changes are lost after reboot).
You need
a custom recovery like ClockWorkMod on your device
the understanding that you will use this script at your own risk
You could also
make the /system partition writable via kernel patch and use the app
use a custom ROM which comes with an ad-blocking hosts file already
This uses the hosts list from AdAway as of June 17th 2013. All credits for this to AdAway and its contributors

Can you create a script which creates the symbolic link i.e. the approach recommended in AdAway help (S-ON/S-OFF)? That would allow the file to be updated by the app over time...

This makes sense if you want to keep using the app, thanks for the hint. I uploaded symlink_hosts_to_data.zip and updated the opening post. This will work also after having the other zip already applied.

Cheers, do I need all 3 zips or just the one dated today?

Either the one dated (and you're fine) OR the symlink one if wanting to use AdAway configured to write to /data/data/hosts. The third file is only for restoring original state.

Cheers, so should this block all ads then, I had the ad block apk. But it didn't block all annoying ads?

This should block all ads so far (at least it absolutely does for me). However the list of ad servers is actively maintained by hosts-file.net. If you should find an ad host not blocked you can post it there and it will find its way back to AdAway. To be always up-to-date I recommend using AdAway with the symlink method from OP.

Dunno why but it doesn't block ads on the goal.com app but for some reason no adblock app ever really did, strange!

Hey, just inquiring...
I've done the "flash host files directly" step, and playing Subway Surfers.
It would seem that ads are only blocked on that game when I have system set to RW...(I think...?...not 100% sure, but it would seem this way)
I was under the impression that it shouldn't matter because I'm flashing the host file directly?
Can anyone offer their thoughts please.

Yes, after flashing the hosts files directly no further steps should be necessary and ads be gone. Can you verify that ads also exist in other applications (or websites)? Maybe this is an issue with the app you are using, for example if it loads its apps from its own (unblocked) server.

Yeah, I think you're right about it perhaps being app related. I think maybe I need to monitor it a bit more closely and take random notes...
like sometimes I'm bombarded with advertisments any time I touch to advance or go back through menus...but just in that app...then I'll reboot...and sometimes it'll go a full day without ads...?
I also use a local news app which would normally advertise dating links, but those don't seem to appear...so it's definitely working.
All good though...thanks for answering that for me!
Much appreciated!!!

Thanks so much for this info Mantelinho, I had been looking for a solution. When using this 1st method, do I need to flash symlink_hosts_to_data.zip in recovery after every ROM flash? I.e., I'm dirty-flashing CyanogenMod nightlies every other day or so and I'm not sure if need to re-create the symlink after every flash.
edit: I have discovered I DO need to flash symlink_hosts_to_data.zip after every ROM flash.

Sorry to bump an old thread. Will this work on the new M8 variant of the One, or will it only work on the M7 variant?

No only this device...I sold my N2 before I had a chance to try it but it seems to be very popular. I love the customability to change the layout and colors of all the menus...that is just scratching the surface.

I just read the op (1-3) again and have a few questions but am still confused and/or don't know enough to ask meaningful questions. I have my zips and should be able to switch back and forth so will start there. Looks like others in our group are also interested.

Well my zips work and I can switch back and forth. I won't be using customizing much and find the way the cursor always shoots back to the top item when selecting something me wonder what I selected, was that setting on or off? Found the soft buttons on the bottom the easiest way to navigate. I tried to use an OTG drive, it seems to mount but I was unable to do anything with it and it looks like when you leave the mount menu it unmounts, at least it was not available for browse from the install from zip menu. The UI is blindingly fast, like instantaneous and very nice on the eyes. I would have to get used to the whole thing though so first impression is overkill. A sweet and simple recovery it is not. I would like to hear some reviews from the rest of you

Thanks didnt know about this thread. Not sure I understand what that md5sum file you mention is...

I just used PhilZ 6 to do two nandroids and install a new ROM. It all worked smoothly. So far, so good. Recommended.
