New Features (added by author):
Spoiler
Spoiler: 1. FBE Encryption Toggler (FBE = File-Based Encryption)
Spoiler: How to Enable/Disable FBE Encryption
* Make sure that the "Enable FBE" button has changed to "Disable FBE" (or vice versa if disabling)
How it works:
Formatting is needed to erase all traces of full disk encryption (FDE) + we need a completely new file system (recovery will take care of this). Immediately after that, the recovery switches encryption type to FBE in the ROM's vendor.
Spoiler: What is this? What is it for?
Some definition:
Android 7.0 and higher supports file-based encryption (FBE). File-based encryption allows different files to be encrypted with different keys that can be unlocked independently.

What does FBE encryption look like?
Spoiler
1. The contents and names of files/folders are encrypted using random characters:
2. Upon system startup, the device is absolutely usable and does not require to enter a password. FBE decryption is bound to Lock Screen and occurs at the time of unlocking using PIN/Password/Pattern.
At the time of writing this post, 100% of our devices use Full Disk Encryption (FDE). Traditionally, FDE encryption is enabled inside ROM's settings, and personally, I did not encounter problems with this type of encryption before Android 10. Unfortunately, on new Androids FDE is very unstable. Moreover, in Android 13 (T) it will be possible to encrypt only using FBE method because FDE method is officially deprecated and will be completely removed.
Android T (AOSP experimental) removes support for full-disk encryption entirely.
https://source.android…y/encryption/full-disk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Some FDE issues on Android 10+:
1. The device hangs on boot logo (requires formatting of /data to fix).
2. The device may boot up successfully and be detected as encrypted, but most of the installed applications and settings disappear forever.
3. The device boots correctly but is not detected as encrypted.
Having tried a bunch of ROMs, I have never encountered the problems above and have always been able to successfully encrypt the device with FBE method. Therefore, if you are interested in encryption, accustom yourself to encrypt immediately after ROM flashing, since everything is quite handy
Warning: decryption on Android 12+ and workaround | FIXED in OrangeFox R11.1(4)
Spoiler
FIXED in OrangeFox R11.1(4)
Unfortunately, all ROM's on Android 12+ for our device can successfully be encrypted/decrypted using FBE method, but decryption in recovery is problematic. This is an Android bug, which doesn't expose the decryption keys used by the recovery. Indeed, this is a recovery problem; Android 12 stores decryption keys elsewhere, so recovery can't find them. OrangeFox / TWRP devs are already in the process of adapting to the changes of Android 12. As soon as new recovery is ready I'll build a new release and everything will work. Fortunately, I found out that passwordless decryption works.
Temporary workaround:
1. Reboot to ROM
2. Remove the Lock Screen protection (PIN/Password/Pattern)
3. Reboot to recovery, the data will be automatically decrypted
4. When you're done, reboot to system and enable Lock Screen protection again
Note: you'll need to do this until the ROMs fix the decryption keys related issue.
If you don't remove the Lock Screen protection, then instead of the data you will get:
Spoiler: 2. GUI implementation for USB Storage Exporter by 0xCAFEBABE
This is a GUI implementation of usb-stor-export.sh script for geeks.
For the folks, I implemented a way to export entire eMMC memory. How to use this:
1. Disconnect from PC if connected
2. Go to Mount and swipe the slider
3. Connect the device to the PC
4. Your PC should detect a 16/32GB device, as if you connected an external hard drive
Now, all partitions are at your disposal. You can resize them to add to /data , or make an image of the entire eMMC memory (highly recommend) or backup a specific system partition and restore even on another device. Backup using recovery will not do this to you.
(!) DO EVERYTHING AT YOUR OWN RISK! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR ACTIONS ON SYSTEM PARTITIONS!
(!) EVEN IF YOU HAVEN'T TOUCHED ANYTHING, ALWAYS UNMOUNT THE DISK FROM THE OS AND ONLY THEN TAP "Unexport".
Spoiler: 3. eMMC Lifetime Used indicator
It displays life time estimation for your eMMC memory. The percentage means how many reserved blocks have been consumed.
The status can be:
- Undefined = The kernel driver cannot detect eMMC memory state
- Normal = Your eMMC memory is fine
- Warning = Your eMMC memory consumed about 80% of reserved blocks
- Urgent = Your eMMC memory consumed almost 100% of reserved blocks
- Reserved = Your eMMC memory consumed all 100% of reserved blocks and will put itself in read-only mode very soon
For geeks: tap on it to print all HEX values to the console.
Spoiler: 4. Enter to Fastboot Mode inside recovery
This is a hidden feature of OrangeFox itself that I've simply exposed. Unfortunately, important commands like fastboot boot exit with an error, because we are still in recovery and things are kind of busy ... But for something not used/static, like flashing partitions, it's working.
Spoiler: 5. fastboot binary
Now, using OrangeFox's embedded Terminal you can do everything you normally did using a PC.
* If you made a male-to-male USB using an USB-OTG cable, then plug the USB-OTG into the device that will send commands.
Illustration: Xiaomi helps Asus
Spoiler: 6. Dark/Light Theme Toggler accessible from anywhere
This is to make sure your eyes feel comfortable
7. Ability to reboot into Fastboot Mode
8. Binaries: nano, tar, sed and xz utils
9. Support mounting of NTFS drives via OTG
10. Handy aliases (l, ll, la, lo) for `ls` command
11. Colorful support for prompt string (PS1) and for `ls/grep/egrep/fgrep` commands when using ADB/AromaFM
12. VIM - Vi IMproved Editor
13. UI rendering at 60 FPS
14. Support Python
15. Semi-transparent Lock Screen background as in stock TWRP
16. Saving screenshots in /tmp/screenshots if /sdcard is not mounted
Miscellaneous:
Spoiler
Spoiler: Error 7. Failed to unmount: /system. No such volume.
Sometimes got this error when flashing old ROM's of Android 9 and lower. To fix it:
1. Open .zip archive and search for file:
Code:
META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script
2. Open it and remove parts where /system is mounted:
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system", "/system", "");
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/backuptool.sh", "backup", "/system");
unmount("/system");
also this one
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system", "/system", "");
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/backuptool.sh", "restore", "/system");
unmount("/system");
3. Save it and repack .zip archive
Spoiler: Red/Blue lines after flashing
Can be fixed by installing a more recent Firmware.

<< New in version 6: Smoother touch with kinetics, basic theme support, KitKat ready, MTK devices support >>
End Of Support
Project Status: No Longer Updated
As I mentioned before, I have a lot of new important projects in my real life. I am very happy to abandon this project for real life alternatives.
CWM is a dead project for now, until some dev resurrects it. I was about to do, until these new projects came.
Current version will probably work a while for many devices. Some devices with new ROM installers could have issues. Just use TWRP and avoid the new CM Simple Recovery
If the current version works for you, there is no reason you don't use it though. No need to ***** in all threads because it doesn't work for you. Just move on to other alternatives.

Version Information
Status: No Longer Updated
Created 2014-03-29
Last Updated 2016-01-05

Developers info: ** New: you can now build full version from my git sources **
You can also try to get support on IRC on freenode: #PhilZ-Touch (thanks @Bhargav97)
You can fetch source from this link (cm-11.0 branch):
https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/philz_touch_cwm6
I no longer maintain the older branches
Before you start, make sure you can build stock cwm from cm-11.0 source
Once you can build stock CWM, just replace your bootable/recovery folder with this one and lunch for your device
Device tree changes examples:
They are minimal and detailed below
You can see a few examples from here:
device tree: https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/philz_touch_cwm6_device_vendor/tree/cm-11.0
vold exfat/ntfs/f2fs kernel support: https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/android_system_vold/tree/cm-11.0
selinux extensions for extra partitions: https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/android_external_sepolicy/tree/cm-11.0
To avoid modifying BoardConfig.mk and device.mk for all devices I support, I modified the build makefile:
https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/android_build/tree/cm-11.0
Those are the only optional changes to get all features of this recovery mod.
To use f2fs/exfat/ntfs kernel support, you should learn how to modify the kernel too. Else, skip the vold changes and flags (see below details)
Optional PhilZ Touch extra flags:
The below info are optional. You should still be able to build without editing anything in device tree
bootable/recovery/boardconfig/BoardConfig.mk
It is a quick mode to add device specific tags without altering device tree. That way I can spot needed changes easier.
Code:
# Info on some tags:
- KERNEL_EXFAT_MODULE_NAME: This will force minivold to use much faster kernel modules instead of slow fuse
it will only work if you have modified vold sources (contact me for info)
you'll also have to copy modules to ramdisk and load them in init.rc or a loader script
you need either an exfat enabled prebuilt kernel or to compile exfat modules along kernel
you also need to patch minivold: [url]https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/android_system_vold[/url]
- KERNEL_NTFS_MODULE_NAME:
Same as above, but for ntfs.
- TARGET_USERIMAGES_USE_F2FS := true
will enable f2fs support and ext4 <-> f2fs conversion and backup migration
obviously you need to add f2fs support into the kernel
read about the extra.fstab use to use specific and distinct f2fs and ext4 mount options
else, it will drop to bare minimal ext4 or f2fs mount options if not defined in recovery.fstab
- BOARD_USE_MTK_LAYOUT := true
will enable backup/restore of boot, recovery and uboot partitions on MTK devices
- BOARD_MTK_BOOT_LABEL := "/bootimg"
This flag is optional, it is used only if BOARD_USE_MTK_LAYOUT is defined
If not defined while previous flag is enabled, default boot label is assumed "/bootimg"
Else, it is assigned the defined value
In fstab.device used by recovery (recovery.fstab), boot mount point must be the same as what we
define in label
It is also mandatory that it is defined to real device label (cat /proc/dumchar_info)
Partition size is grabbed during backup/restore from /proc/dumchar_info
uboot label is defined as "/uboot". It is automatically backed-up/restored with boot and recovery
recovery label is always assumed to be "/recovery"
- BOARD_HAS_LOW_RESOLUTION:
(optional) for all devices below 1024x768 resolution.
it forces default touch sensitivity to a lower value. It can be altered in GUI Settings
- BOOTLOADER_CMD_ARG:
This will override ro.bootloader.mode. Mostly used for Samsung devices to access download mode
- TARGET_COMMON_NAME
The device name that will be displayed on recovery start and in About dialogue
- BRIGHTNESS_SYS_FILE:
Needed to be able to alter screen brightness
- ro.cwm.backup_partitions:
this can be set on boot or during compile into default.prop. exp in device.mk:
PRODUCT_PROPERTY_OVERRIDES += \
ro.cwm.backup_partitions=/modemst1,/modemst2,/devlog
it will add support to backup/restore those partitions in nandroid custom jobs provided they are also defined in recovery.fstab
device/brand/phone_name/device.mk
Code:
PRODUCT_COPY_FILES += \
$(LOCAL_PATH)/rootdir/etc/extra.fstab:recovery/root/etc/extra.fstab
extra.fstab documentation:
* Needed until fs_mgr_read_fstab() starts to parse blk_device2 entries
* extra.fstab sample:
Code:
# add here entries already existing in main device fstab, but for which you want a blk_device2, fs_type2 or fs_options2
# mount point must be the same, mmcblk device must be your device true path
# you can set the f2fs mount options for partitions you want to be able to toggle between f2fs/ext4
# it will enable faster transfer speed for devices supporting usb mount storage
# makes it possible to partition vold managed storage (sdcard/usb disks) and format it to ext2/ext3
# used also to stat for size of mtd/yaffs2 partitions
# blk_device2 # mount_point fs_type2 fs_options2 flags (not used in extra.fstab code)
/dev/block/mmcblk0p28 /storage/sdcard0 auto defaults defaults
/dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /storage/sdcard1 auto defaults defaults
/dev/block/sda1 /storage/usbdisk0 auto defaults defaults
/dev/block/mmcblk0p30 /data f2fs [options] [flags]
If it doesn't build or errors, post log/error here and I will help if I can
Adding Full PhilZ Touch version support for your device
Compile for your device by replacing bootable/recovery contents with files from my git
Set the needed options in bootable/recovery/boardconfig/BoardConfig.mk
It is very important to set the correct options so that libtouch_gui can be initialized properly
Optional: you can add your signature here, but do not remove other About ui_prints please, keep credits
https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/philz_touch_cwm6/blob/cm-11.0/advanced_functions.c#L3328
post a link to your thread or attach your recovery.img here and I will upload them to goo.im and main OP for official support
If you have errors, bugs or need a specific feature for your custom kernel, just let me know by PM
If errors are related to libtouch_gui, try to disable the PHILZ_TOUCH_RECOVERY flag here by adding a #
https://github.com/PhilZ-cwm6/philz_touch_cwm6/blob/cm-11.0/Android.mk#L6
Then, post here your error log when compiling

Missing sources in my github:
none, it is all open source now
- all gui options, include touch code
- Create Update.zip from current ROM or from pre-existing backups
- However, they are all enabled through the new libtouch_gui library. Just set your flags and compile it
Will libtouch_gui sources published?
They are open source now
Not for now. Why?
Answer: in this post
Can I include and use your libtouch_gui in my recovery mod ?
You are welcome, but:
- do not reverse code
- do not binary edit it
- add credits in your code
- do not remove credits headers from sources and give proper credit in your thread site
- post a link to this thread on your site/thread
- push fixes to my github if you find bugs that you fix or if you add new features

PhilZ Touch Quick Guide
It is based on Koush clockworkmod 6.x to which I added many features and a full reliable touch interface
It brings a true touch and scroll interface, fully customizable GUI, theme support, advanced nandroid options and much more
How to select your .android_secure path
In Custom Backup and Restore operations, you can select the target/source for android.secure or disable it
In stock backup/restore operations, include those started with ROM Manager, you can also force a target/source for .android_secure
basically, recovery will check first external storage for a .android_secure folder. If it doesn't find it, it will look in internal storage
If you want for example .android_secure to be in internal sd, just delete .android_secure folder from external sd and ensure there is a .android_secure folder in internal sd
for external sd, just ensure there is a .android_secure folder in it. It will be chosen what ever is the internal sd state
Custom Backup and Restore menu
This is one of the most powerful features of this recovery.
It is made completely open source code, built from sratch. Just keep credits headers and give proper credit if you use them
You can select which partitions you want to backup or restore
You can choose your .android_secure source and target or even disable it
You can set it to reboot directly after job is done
backups will go under the folder clockworkmod/backup (please move all contents of custom_backup folder used in previous versions to the default backup folder in cwm)
TWRP backups go under stock TWRP/BACKUPS/device_id folder and will be automatically recognized by TWRP
Custom Restore Menu allows you to restore from any of the stock clockworkmod backups, the custom backups or the TWRP backups
efs is backed up under clockworkmod/backup/.efs_backup
- efs must be selected alone for backup in cwm mode
- it will create 2 copies: a tar and raw img backup using cat/dd command
- to restore efs, under Custom Restore menu, select efs only and toggle between tar and .img
- restore .img format is advised, but tar will work under most circumstances
modem.bin files can be named any_thing.bin and must go under clockworkmod/backup/.modem_bin
- with that, you can flash modem.bin files that come with official firmware (may need unlocked devices for some models)
if you disable md5, your backups will no more be recognized by stock cwm builds. Look at next step to regenerate md5 for stock cwm compatibility. Otherwise, all stock and custom backups are backward compatible with stock cwm (except special partitions like preload, recovery, modem and efs which stock cwm doesn't support)
you can now recreate md5 sum for any backup you want. Use with caution!
Open Recovery Script Support (ORS): revised and adapted from original sk8erwitskil source
On start, recovery looks automatically for "/cache/recovery/openrecoveryscript" installed by goomanager or any tasker. If it finds it, it is run and phone will reboot
You can also add custom ors scripts you edit your self:
When pressing the ors menu, it will look at default locations for your custom scripts:
"clockworkmod/ors" first in extra storage, then in internal sd. Put your custom scripts there with file extension .ors
That way you can access your jobs (flash, wipe, backup, restore...) instantly
If no scripts are found in default folder, you get option to browse both storage volumes for a custom location
To learn how to write ors scripts to automate your backup/restore/wipe/flash tasks, read here, it is very easy: http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/OpenRecoveryScript
Give Goomanager a try
All backup and restore options are supported include special partitions 1, 2 and 3 and even extra 4 and 5 partitions (could add modem, efs and preload linked to them later)
/preload will be included with /system if you enabled the /preload option in Misc Nandroid Settings
you have an extra here: you can set the target volume for ors backups under Misc Nandroid Settings menu
ors backups can be set to either TWRP or CWM format
Aroma File Manager Support *Adapted from amarullz and sk8erwitskil
You get here the possibility to browse your phone with root access in a friendly GUI file browser, while being in recovery
You even now get a terminal emulator to run in recovery
Download Aroma File Manager from its Home Page
Get the last version and rename the file aromafm.zip
Put the aromafm.zip in "clockworkmod/aromafm/aromafm.zip" in any of the storage volumes
In recovery, tap the Aroma File Manager menu or double tap any part of the screen outside menus
It will launch the file manager automatically
Double tap gesture linked to Aroma File Manager can be altered in the GUI Settings menu
Touch GUI Preferences:
This is another unique feature of this recovery and is built from scratch
You can toggle through 4 touch modes:
Full Touch: menus are validated by touching them. I added extra checks to make it robust to validation by error while scrolling.
Double Tap: menus are highlighted on first touch. To validate action, you need to double tap the same menu
Semi Touch: the classic semi-touch interface I enhanced. Menus are selected/highlighted on first touch. You can scroll by swiping up/down, but no validation on touch.
Disable Touch: touch code completely disabled. You have all gui options left, but only hardware keys
When Full Touch mode is selected, it will automatically set recommended menu height, touch accuracy and scroll sensitivity. You can alter them later if you want
Scroll sensitivity controls scrolling on swipe up/down. Lower values are the most sensitive. Adjust this based on selected menu height
Touch accuracy: increase it if your touch gestures are not well accounted for
Config files are saved in /data/philz-touch/philz-touch_x.ini file.
You can do a backup of your settings file, it will go under /sdcard/clockworkmod/philz-touch.ini.bak
You can choose to be prompted to restore your settings whenever they are wiped while you have a backup. You can also set recovery to auto-restore them when needed. This check is done when you reboot to main system from within recovery
There are many gesture actions that you can setup at your wish (some default actions are setup by default)
Long press/move is the bad equivalent to a long press gesture action: just that after 0.6 sec of touch, slightly move your finger or change the pressure surface without actually lifting it
Your screen should auto-dim automatically after one minute and turn off after 3 mn. You can change those time settings. Just touch the screen to reset brightness and turn it on (some devices need to press hardware button)
All GUI parts can be customized: menu hight, text colors, menu colors, selection colors, background color and icon, menu seprators, battery and clock, header text...
To setup a custom background image: put a png image with your device resolution in a folder clockworkmod/custom_res
You can take screen shots from recovery display by the slide left gesture (change it at your wish). Pics captures will go under clockworkmod/screen_shots folder. External storage will be always used first. If no external storage is found, internal storage is used. You can take up to 999 pics before it resets to 1
Setup Free Browse Mode and Multi-zip Installer:
Free Browse Mode:
You can setup a default folder from where the Install Zip menu will start
From within your set default folder, you can now browse backward up to the root file system to install a zip file
Multi-zip Installer menu:
Lets you select multiple zip files to flash at the same time
The zip files must go into a subfolder under: "clockworkmod/multi_flash"
At least one subfolder with your zip files must be created. You can create as many subfolders as you want
exp: clockworkmod/multi_flash/NEAT_ROM_files
Pause on Logs:
Pause on Logs: when enabled, after flashing a zip file or doing a nandroid job, you will be prompted for a key to return to menu display. That way, logs are kept in full screen. Obviously, no pause will be performed on boot scripts and multi-zip operations

How to Install
This will depend on your device. Please look first for help in your device specific thread.
Provided instructions here ARE NOT VALID for all phone
Recovery (.zip) packages instructions
They come in the form of .zip files that can be flashed in cwm recovery
Download philz_touch_xxx.zip file
Put the previously downloaded philz_touch_xxx.zip file on your sd card
Boot into recovery (volume up+home+power)
Select "Install zip" and browser to your downloaded zip file.
Now select the philz_touch_xxx.zip fileyou copied in previous step
You will have PhilZ Touch Recovery flashed
Odin packages instructions: Samsung Only
They come in the form of .tar.md5 file
boot into download mode
start odin3 and configure it as in picture below
connect phone in download mode to PC via USB
press start to flash the tar.md5 package
normally, phone should auto-reboot into recovery.
If it reboots into main system and your recovery remains stock, repeat above steps and untick "autoreboot" in odin. Once flash is done, keep pressing the 3 buttons combo to for a reboot into recovery.You should see the new CWM
when in recovery, if you choose option "reboot system now" and you get "yes - disable flash recovery", select that option to avoid stock recovery overwriting cwm
to remove yellow triangle, use TriangleAway
Root your phone and reset Yellow Triangle

>>True support for /data/media/0 for Android 4.2.2<<
First to introduce true JB 4.2 migration: live toggle between /data/media and /data/media/0
This implementation keeps compatibility with stock cwm while giving user option to force /data/media/0

FAQ
1- what happens if I wipe/format/factory reset my data/media device?
format /data: only data is wiped, exclude /data/media:
Code:
cd /data ; for f in $(ls -a | grep -v ^media$); do rm -rf $f; done
format /sdcard : only /data/media or /data/media/0 (depending on setting you choose in Advanced menu) is wiped
Code:
rm -rf /sdcard/*
rm -rf /sdcard/.*
format /data and /data/media: will issue a true format on /data volume, obviously killing /data/media
Factory reset: will also preserve /data/media (rm -rf)
Clean to Install a New ROM: will do a factory reset (format /data, /cache, /datadata and sd-ext) + format /system +/- /preload. Your system will not boot until you install a new ROM
2- I backed up my data and I cannot find it when I boot into phone
Stock CWM and CM Updater app are using a non conventional linking for internal storage: internal storage is linked as /sdcard/0
PhilZ touch supports true /sdcard paths by linking it to either /data/media or /data/media/0
/sdcard/0 has no meaning in PhilZ Touch unless you set it to /data/media
By default, if a folder /data/media/0 exists, PhilZ Touch will default /sdcard to it, else it will use /data/media.
The advantage is for all stock +4.2 users: they can directly access their backups from /sdcard, while in main system and see them on PC in MTP mode.
You can override that setting in Advanced Menu and force it to /data/media or revert to /data/media/0
I recommend moving all your old cwm path to /data/media/0/clockworkmod and set sdcard to /data/media/0 unless you are switching between stock CWM and this mod or you need CM Updater app
To sum it up: for stock +4.2 rom users, keep default (/data/media/0). For CM users, if you frequently use CM Updater to flash in recovery, force /data/media
3- I come from stock CWM/TWRP and PhilZ Touch cannot see my backups
Read Answer 2
4- Aroma file manager doesn't start when I double tap screen
Read the guide to install aroma file manager.
Path changed in v5!
Read the /data/media/0 faq 2
5- CMUpdater cannot flash downlaoded files
If you get a /sdcard/0 error, it means you have /sdcard set as /data/media/0 in recovery
The reason is that CM app doesn't support /data/media/0 and is faking recovery with a /sdcard/0 implementation
You still can alter the setting and force it to /data/media in Advanced menu. This will give full compatibility with cwm, CM roms and CM Updater
6- How to flash a boot.img or recovery.img file?
- Put your boot.img or/and recovery.img files under a subfolder in clockworkmod/backup on sdcards
exp: /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/cm-10.1-nightly_20130713/boot.img
- Navigate to Backup and Restore / Custom Backup and Restore / Custom Restore Job
- Unselect all partitions except boot and/or recovery
- Select >> Start Custom Backup Job <<
- Browse to your backup location until your cm-10.1-nightly_20130713, and select any file inside it
- You are done
7- My backups take a long time to complete
First, make sure you set compression to fast or low. Low compression setting gives around 30% compression with quiet no impact on speed. Rising compression value makes backups extremely slow with very little gain on space.
Stock CWM uses exfat fuse but without any buffering of writes. The end of it is a non usable thing for any backup because of an incredibly slow write speed.
TWRP uses exfat fuse binary to do the backups + caches tar writes to improve speed. This could cause data corruption on some devices.
PhilZ Touch uses patched kernel with native exfat support (static mode) for Samsung devices and soon other brands. This is supposed to be the faster and safest way.
However, it seems to struggle on some devices because of the logging mode used by CWM
Solutions:
- hide progress bar in Nandroid Settings menu: this will dramatically improve speed for many devices
- do not use exfat
- change exfat card to another brand. Ask in forum what people are using with good speed
- some users reported a real slow down when card/device is hot. Let your phone rest from intensive read/writes before starting a backup
- switch to another recovery like twrp if you cannot live with it. PhilZ Touch is compatible with TWRP and can backup/restore twrp format
8- You think you found a bug?
- Make sure your issue is recovery related
- All external sdcard issues: first format in PC with primary partition, tons of people are formatting as logical and come cry
- Reproduce your issue and while in recovery:
- Go to Advanced / Report Error
- Copy the /sdcard/clockworkmod/philz_recovery.log file and attach it here
- Give detailed info about your issues
- Without these, there is little chance I can help you, so, do not get mad if I do not answer
9- Loki things
Locked bootloader? How to lokify before flashing:
In Advanced Menu / Toggle Loki Support : enable auto loki
Flash the zip file and you are done
PhilZ Touch recoveries that come in a zip file format AND released after v6.01.2 have a script in the zip to lokify the recovery image during flash even if you are coming from older recoveries or TWRP (thanks @Wootever)
The included recovery.img in the zip is not lokified, it will be lokified during flash
If you are using a new CWM or PhilZ Touch with auto-loki enabled, please disable it before flashing my zip files to avoid any issue with double lokifying, if ever possible!
Unlocked bootloader users can still extract the recovery.img file and restore it from inside recovery:
put recovery.img in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/philz_update/recovery.img
In Custom Backup and Restore menu, unselect all except recovery
validate to browse to the update recovery.img
done
10- Assert error 7 on device name when installing roms and updates
Start of v6.02.2, recoveries are based on cm-11.0 (KitKat) device tree.
In all zip installers, you have a file called update-binary. It is the executable that will process and interpret all commands in updater-script, which will do all actions.
Older update-binary files cannot access system assert props on kitkat based kernels.
Fixes:
- edit your updater-script in zip file and remove all assert lines checking for device name. Use notepad++ or a linux editor
- manually change your update-binary in the zip with a new one you take from a cm-11.0 release
- revert to an older recovery before 6.02.2
- ask your rom releaser to update his update-binary
Note: start of 6.09.6, this error is fixed. However, you can end up with error in FAQ 11
11- various status 7 errors: format() expects 5 args, got 4 - set_permissions errors...
First read FAQ 10
Start of 6.09.6, recovery will analyze the update-binary that comes with your zip package. If it detects an outdated version, it will be automatically replaced during flash.
This will fix all assert getprop errors discussed in FAQ 10 (often used to check if the zip is meant to be flashed on your device)
However, doing so, can expose you to a bunch of new errors if the update-binary is +2 years old. In that case, the updater-script code used could not match the new update-binary:
The error "format() expects 5 args, got 4" is caused by not using the below new format command in updater-script:
format(fs_type, partition_type, location, fs_size, mount_point)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
exp:
Code:
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");
The error due to failure on set_perm is caused by using 2 years old update-binary
New ones will abort installation when setting permission fails on any file, while it was previously allowed to continue
Fixes:
- start of 6.15.4, PhilZ Touch added an option to force using the update-binary that comes in your zip. It will make it work except for the assert for device name error. However, that error is very easy to fix by any one (see FAQ 10). The option doesn't stick on reboot, you have to manually set it when you flash such files. It is done on purpose to keep you warned about potential risks using such bad scripts often coming from a copy paste procedure
- hammer your ROM maker to keep up to his time, and look closer at his scripting and update-binary engine used
12- Time fix for Qualcom Chips and other devices
On many Qualcom devices, setting the time is disabled on different levels, depending on the device
New PhilZ Touch versions added a workaround to this limitation. The fixes do not modify in anyway the RTC flags in kernel, as it is not recommended by Qualcom
- Qualcom Time Daemon:
This is the recommended option. It will load the time daemon from /system and will keep your recovery time in sync with ROM.
However, many CM/AOKP/Custom Roms do not have a proper implementation of the daemon. Ask your ROM dev to properly implement Qualcom proprietary binaries and RTC permissions.
- Use RTC Time Offset:
This is the second workaround, recommended for ROMs without proper time daemon. You have to enable the option. After that, it will ask you to setup the actual time/date manually. Do it AND Validate your choice to apply the actual time. Enabling the offset mode without manually setting correct time AND validating your option has no effect!
- Try Force Persist on Reboot:
This is your last choice, if all other options failed. Disable previous 2 options and enable this one. You will need to setup time/date manually AND validate your choice. Else, it won't have any effect.
- Normal/manual mode: Non Qualcom based devices, can just use the default mode to set time/date manually
13- My ROM maker advises another recovery
If an installer script cannot run on PhilZ Touch, it won't run on CWM. PhilZ Touch is just a CWM mod in that regard. Installer is not modified
Rule of thumb: If a ROM cooker says "YOU MUST USE A GIVEN RECOVERY", be sure there are bugs in his work
A properly formatted updater-script, shell child scripts or aroma scripts should be able to run on any recovery as it should call real blk device paths and not "pre-defined" mount points
Mount points WILL vary from recovery to another and maybe from a version to another. Relying on them is a bad idea
Also, many do miss proper edify scripting rules:
- /sdcard is a symlink, not a folder since years now (/data/media)
- you cannot extract without mounting first
- you must create your paths. Installer won't be verifying you did so
- you cannot mount vold paths (sdcard, usb storage...) by calling the mount point in a shell script. Look at your fstab under recovery to understand why
If a rom maker has issues to understand this, he can ask for help here or in an edify scripting thread
14- F2FS <-> EXT4 format migration
Under "mounts and storage" menu, if "toggle f2fs <-> ext4 migration" is enabled, whenever we try to format an ext4 or f2fs partition, we get a prompt to convert between f2fs/ext4
To convert /data on /data/media devices, we must as always select the "/data and /data/media" menu
Nandroid implementation to migrate your data/ROM from ext4 to f2fs:
- backup your existing data
- in "mounts and storage", format the partitions you want to convert to f2fs
- restore your data
- on restore, if both backup image and target partition has different fstype and fstype is either ext4 or f2fs, we favour target devise fsytpe (data migration)

This is awesome work buddy. Never seen this before..Great work my friend. You need clapping.
BTW, can I load it in MY galaxy R..?? Using CWM V 6.0.0.1.??

Re: [22.03.2013]Clockworkmod Advanced Edition / PhilZ Touch 4.90.8
Look at the dev info thread to port/compile it for any device supported by cyanogenmod
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2

Updated post 1 with currently supported devices by me
This list can grow up as people would like to

Is it possible to add support other devices?

Congrats on the official thread Phill ! Your place belongs here. :angel:
Phill has been supporting the G Note community for almost a year now and he has special expertise with Samsung devices, more so with issues like brick bug, root, stability, battery, ever - growing features in the recovery menus, dealing with bootloops, even kernel issues etc.
Im sure his work will be well appreciated over a wider area on xda soon.
Of course he will support more devices as he gets more time and requests.

Keep it up Phil, you have been the best developer for Samsung community.

Phil love your work and your support man..
Lastest build great on LSD firmware on SGS2..PS Using the original build with SuperSU

You're the best Phil keep it up:good:
One question though why the new version included only two bases?

Red Wolf Recovery is custom recovery based on TWRP source code, however some things are working here slightly different then you might expected. The main objective of this project is to provide stable recovery with features which you have never seen before in a recovery and which have not been accepted for adding to the official source code of TWRP. This recovery is also first recovery on the world with password protection.
Based on TWRP version: 3.2.3

Batik Recovery is Project Recovery developed by Batik Recovery Teamwork from Indonesia, this Batik Recovery is a derivative of the Official TWRP that was modified by the developer in accordance with the Indonesian characteristics. In Indonesia, batik is a motif that is considered quite famous for the beauty of its art. Therefore, the developer gave the name Batik Recovery and a touch of batik motifs in the Recovery, including splash, background, and icon. The goal of the developer to release the project is to further popularize batik, and especially to popularize the name of Indonesia.

you can start, more installation worked out

Seems this recovery does not support encrypted data fully. It detects and prompts for the password, my password does not successfully mount the data partition.

no recovery will support your encrypted date, this kernel thing used, we still do not have something decent, backup your date and format the first time

Anyone tested it on MI 8 lite. It looks like a batter recovery for stock roms. I want to use it but I have no time to test it

I am using it right now. Not really tested much yet just installed mi-globe after unlocking bootloader last week. I will be flashing a few roms this week and will post if I run across any issues.

I didn't test stock ota update I wont fun stock miui unless I have to wait on unlock. I have flashed multiple custom miui roms and one aosp rom. Everything flashed fine along with backup and restore of all roms. I tested a few of the scripts/tools and no problems so far.
Edit: aroma gapps 9.0 wont install. After selecting all options and install starts recovery reboots. Then no matter what reboot option I choose it boots back into recovery. Have to long press power to reboot to system. Happens on modified twrp also.

Hello. Is it possible to install the image contained in the ZIP file by ADB?

If your zip contains an image and a META-INF folder you can use adb sideload.

Cannot encrypt my phone properly when using this recovery.

Hey guys I'm familiar with flashing an .img via adb fastboot but how do you flash this recovery if you want to use the entire .zip? I pulled out the img and did it that way at first.

The zip contains some recovery tools to be unpacked on TWRP folder that will be used by Batik so better is to flash the zip.
You can do it from two ways:
- If you already flashed the image, boot to Batik recovery and flash the zip placed inside your adb folder on pc using adb sideload.
- Or copy the zip to your main SDcard on your device and flash it through batik recovery.

[11] [GSI] [OFFICIAL] AOSP Q Mod //CAOS

C A O S(Note, I did not make this rom. This is a Generic System Image (GSI) made by Caos' devs. so it is not specifically built for the A51, but it's really stable and I am using it now. ALL CREDIT GOES TO CAOS' DEVS!)
Your warranty is now void!We're not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Pleasedo some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROMbefore flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and ifyou point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you
CAOS (Custom AOSP OS) is a project which is based on @phhusson's Treble GSI AOSP 10. CAOS' devs began it because ASOP has stability, speed and support but also some issues and limitations - pure AOSP's code has some bugs and it doesn't have much useful things and it's hard to pull it. So CAOS' devs did this fork. System can run with SELinux enforced state, as an original Phh AOSP GSI. Fully compatible with PHH-Treble patches exclude few low level changes: no root app, no "su" binary in system; by default exist file /system/phh/secure (for Google Certification PASS), so if you can boot AOSP GSI, but can't boot CAOS - try to removing that file
UPDATE VERSION
latest build: 2020.10.29
treble patches: v222+
SPL: 5 Oct 2020
File Downloads/InstallationTHINGS THAT YOU NEED ON YOUR WINDOWS COMPUTER.
Odin
Unzip the file. There is a EXE file in it. Double click it to launch. There will be a pop up, just press ok.
FILES THAT YOU NEED TO FLASH THE ROM.The rom itself
Make sure you have 7-zip installed. Right click it and click extract files. Go into the unzipped folder and rename the file inside to "system.img"
TWRP Decrypter
Just leave this file as a zip. Don't unzip it.
ChonDoe Flasher
Just leave this file as a zip, Don't unzip it.
INSTALL RECOVERY AND UNLOCK BOOTLOADER (SKIP THIS PART IF YOU ALREADY HAVE TWRP.)I have made a reddit post on twrp. DO NOT DO THE MAGISK PART.
FLASHING THE FILESGo into TWRP. Press wipe and go into format data. Type in yes and wipe your data. Press the home button in your nav bar and go back into Wipe. Press advanced wipe, tick "data", "Dalvik / ART cache" and "Cache". Format it.
Press the home button in the nav bar again. Now, go into reboot and click recovery. Don't do anything. Once it's back into TWRP, plug your phone into the pc if you haven't already.
On your Windows PC, go into File Explorer, This PC, A515F and then internal storage. Take the "system.img" file and drag it into there. Do the same with "Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_03.04.2020.zip" and "ChonDoe_Flasher.zip"
Once all of them are copied, go onto your phone. Click install and you should see your files. If you don't, go into /sdcard. Flash "ChonDoe_Flasher.zip". Once it's done, flash "Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_03.04.2020.zip". Press "Reboot System" once "Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_03.04.2020.zip" is installed.
If this looks really confusing to you, there is a tutorial for this. However, it's for HavocOS. But everything is the same except the rom. But the steps are the same. Watch it here.
Congrats! You have installed Caos!
