[ROOT][CWM]GiONEE E7 Chinese CWM Recovery /w translations - GiONEE Elife E7

This is the Chinese recovery based on CWM. It works fine with GiONEE E7.
I used Recovery Tools to flash it.
Use above app to backup your stock recovery before flashing it.
Instructions to flash:
(Make sure you are rooted prior to this.)
1. Install Recovery Tools from above link.
2. You will get a prompt to backup your stock recovery. DO IT.
3. Download attached file and copy it to your phone.
4.Select 'Flash Recovery' option.
5. Select 'from storage' and select it from your phone.
6. flash it.
You're done!
Alternatively you can flash it through fastboot as well.
Launch Fastboot through CMD and use following command:
'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img'
IT IS IN CHINESE. WATCH YOUR STEPS!
Please see the attached images for translations of options

If it were so easy then why would I have bothered with Chinese recovery!!
ROM manager doesn't have any recovery for our phone. So it's pretty much useless except for launching into recovery.

yes, all same. use "Terminal Emulator" app from Play Store by Jack Palevich, you need root and busybox. open it, type "su" then enter, and then type again "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21 of=/storage/sdcard0/stockrecovery.img".. then an image file of your backuped recovery was created in your sdcard.. you can change the path of the "of"
HEY TYS0N!! THIS IS MY REPORT: I've flashed your "NON TOUCH CWM - the md5 file" with ODIN 3.07 and I got ONLY the external sd card shown in recovery but labeled as internal (I TRIED REBOOT but still same).. I was panicing.. then I flashed root with it.. and change my recovery as soon as it finished boot with "dd" command with the official one. I reboot to the *official* recovery, then got it all worked..
to the point: does the files that you provided is different?? or any damage in your files? do you got it with your phone working? if there's any, please change.. what's dangerous that people using your files and get their device brick.

okay thx. I need to explain what I mean, there's no "flash zip from external sd card". Only "install zip from sd card". But after selecting "install zip from sd card" (this is must be internal right?), it displays my external sd, not internal.

Recovery is the same for all versions. Using triangle away might help get your official status back if you triggered the custom binary count by flashing recovery through Odin.
Depends on what you've done to get your status modified.

Recovery Solution for Lollypop ROMs [Temporary Workaround]

Dear All,
After lot of testing I finally found the recovery working for CM Based Lollypop ROMs, as I don’t like CM recovery so I was looking for a workaround.
The working way is flash it via fastboot -
"fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img" (recoveryname.img whatever is the name of the download file)
or you can use Playstore Apps to flash img Files (Select Recovery not Kernel) for eg. - [ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool, Flash Image GUI, Flashify etc.

[STOCK RECOVERY][CONDOR][4.4.4]recovery.img

hi everyone...
IN ROUTINE FLASHING PROCESSES WE USE CUSTOM RECOVERIES......
BUT SOMETIMES FOR OFFICIAL UPDATES WE NEED STOCK RECOVERY....
SO HERE IT IS.......
EXTRACTED FROM OFFICIAL XT 1022 4.4.4 FIRMWARE......
BUT IT SHOULD WORK ON OTHERS TOO.....
If you have rooted your device once....
Only full unroot from SuperSU and flashing this recovery will not work....
YOU HAVE TO FLASH FULL FIRMWARE....
OTHERWISE OTA UPDATE WILL FAIL....(because after rooting our build.prop gets little edited....which will cause problems)
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS....
1. DOWNLOAD "RECOVERY.ZIP".
2. U MUST HAVE mfastboot/fastboot AND adb tools EXTRACTED IN A FOLDER ON YOUR PC.
3. EXTRACT RECOVERY.ZIP IN THE SAME FOLDER.
4. PUT YOU PHONE IN BOOTLOADER MODE.
5. CONNECT IT TO PC AND OPEN THAT FOLDER.
6. OPEN CMD WINDOW HERE BY PRESSING SHIFT+RIGHT CLICK.
7. ENTER FOLLOWING COMMAND.

If you need your stock recovery your already rooted and have a custom recovery in place. So therefore your device has an unlocked boot loader. Flashify can flash recovery IMG without even powering into recovery.

As per the files given by @ron580 here I have compiled a CWM recovery for your BLU VIVO AIR
Instructions ==>
1-)Download the Mobileuncletools from google play.
2-)Download the recovery image from below.
3-)Place it in root of sdcard
4-)Open MOBILEUNCLE TOOLS and choose recoveru update option
5-)Then chose the recovery file and reboot to recovery.
I strongly recommend to not try this unless you know how to repair your phone in worst cases

when i get time i can check that ;D... i'm busy too =#
we can use another recovery's too... because we just stay looking what already have developed on XDA... BUT we have Developers on other forums... like 4PDA(RUSSIA), Gionee Forum, BBS(Chinese) and a lot of others... we need can try make a Index Inside XDA to push Other Development projects from other forums to be more easy to get a better community to can have more projects running... for example: CWM already have been developed on Chinese and Russian Forums and TWRP already have been developed to Kazam Tornado 348.. and that is to SAME PHONE... Just using another name/Brand =#
we need push XDA ADM/GM's to make a generic page to our phone... because he have too much Brand/Names but is exactly same phone and hardware =#
...
but anyway is awesome get someone already developing any project on xda.. don't give up this phone, he is powerful and we maybe can get CUSTOM KERNEL from Spanish TeamForce Developer team.. we just need flood them to demonstrate interest about that phone.. :highfive:

Hmm well guyz you gotta try it once but after you get a tutorial for flashing the stock rom on your device.
Deleted. My mistake of not knowing
DUHAsianSKILLZ said:
... guess no on wants a recovery. I dont own the device but, it should only break recovery if it fails. You can simply backup your stock recovery in flashify, and also, with a few commands typed in terminal.. You can create an image dump so you can flash incase you get into bootloops(unsure if it works). I have flashed many broken recoveries before and never had an hardbrick. Im not sure if BLU has download mode on their device but, as long you can reboot into that, you should be fine. Im unsure if there are any stock roms out right now.

Not a fair statement from someone that doesn't own the device It is very difficult to get adb running for this phone consistently. Additionally, backing up stock recovery fails using flashify. Lastly, I did attempt to flash this this morning with the recommended app from the OP and flashify and this is the recovery it booted to afterwards, which looks like the stock recovery (correct me if I am wrong).

that is the stock recovery... you can try use the KAZAM Tornado 348 TWRP, because they are the same phone and Share the same SDK to build Kernel and Another Boot images, if that don't work just flash your backup over it using ADB/fastboot
:highfive:
From 4dpa they have CWM and Carliv CWM working... but the best recovery to them is the official TWRP from Kazam Tornado 348

The point I am making is it appears that theses apps are not writing to our recovery partition. I will try to grab a log later if I can get adb running with this phone. I flashed the recovery in the OP several times and trying several apps.
Can you link to the recovery you are speaking of? I tried this because I was willing to chance it for the community.

this "apps" work to our recovery partition because they are the SAME PHONE... Same SoC... Same Manufacture project(From Gionee) I'm Running TWRP from KAZAM here... you can give a try without problems :highfive:
if your phone don't stay be recognized on computer try follow the steps on my Root Topic to get ADB driver Working Correctly... but if after install the ADB driver it don't get work you need reset the ADB.exe cache on computer...
just open CMD and run this code: taskkill /F /T /IM adb.exe
then try run the code: "ADB Devices" inside the folder where stay installed the ADB (if you follow my steps on C:\adb\ you will get it)
and Turn OFF the 3rd Firewall security Programs on windows to get fully access to ADB Daemon Service :highfive:

I just saw your tutorial. I should be good still on one of my computers so that's a minor issue. I want you to link me to the Kazam recovery that may be compatible with our ViVo air so that I can test it. Thanks.

I hope the OP doesn't mind our chatter. I was able to flash the Twrp but it isn't without its issues. It is giving problems mounting cache and data when trying to wipe. I made a couple of backups and flashed a version of MIUI that I found in the Blu google + community. I was going to restore to stock but couldn't get Twrp to completely power off the device. Eventually data wiped and MIUI booted. Will check to see if I can restore a backup tomorrow.

on 4PDA they have the BLU Firmware to install via CWM... if you want try it using TWRP... Here the LINK ... they say to Wipe everything to flash it...
(You don't format Cache and Data to F2FS... because the KitKat don't Support it to Run)
--
To me the 2.8.5.0 TWRP from KAZAM stay Working Correctly, i already format SDcard, Cache and Dalvik cache.. and make it don't bring problems to me... on 4PDA they talk about NVRAM problem... i don't know how to solve it but is easy to talk to they using translators ... there they have the Updated MiUi too... but if you have Backup your phone.. Use that ;D

Awesome. And stay away from 2.8.6.0 for now. 2.8.5.0 worked much better.

How to flash a simple .zip?

I'm trying to flash the Black YouTube from TBO but I can't figure how.
Tried to flash from stock recovery but I think I'm doing something wrong, because it didn't worked.
Can someone tell me the steps to flash this? Do I need a custom recovery or not?

Yes you need custom recovery.
Just download the TWRP 3.0.M2-0 and flash it via adb by using this command in cmd window -
fastboot flash recovery <filename.img>
Whereas, the <filename.img> is the filename of your twrp recovery which you will download.
For example -
If you have downloaded the custom recovery with the filename "twrp 3.0.x.x" then you have to type the following code -
fastboot flash recovery twrp 3.0.x.x.img
After flashing the twrp, now reboot to recovery.
Once you are in recovery, go to install section and locate the zip file (your black YouTube zip file), select it and then swipe to flash.
After flashing, just reboot the system. That's it.
