You could open it in a hex editor or text editor if you would like. It is a direct write image, there aren't actually files in it for you to retrieve.
Interesting id like to see what has changing in the new recovery from the old one.
Once I get home ill take the recovery.img from the stock esprimg.zip file and compare it with the one from the ota update and see what information I cam pull from that if any.

If someone hasn't already done this; can someone please make an app that lets you download strait to the sdcard. I only have access to a computer at home. It would be nice to download the newest ROMs from my phone and skip the computer all together.

Depending on the file, my phone downloads directly to /sdcard/download/
mine to but I want to be able to download a rom directly to the root of the sdcard. If its in a folder it won't work.

ive had roms in folders before, worked for me
Download Astro file manager go into downloads.. Long press and hold on the ROM and copy it.. hit the bottom on the top which will take it to the root of the SD card and there you go!

Usually you download the file directly from the webpage using a Browser, like Dolphin...

You can also utilize a terminal application and utilize the command "mv" to move from /sdcard/downloads/ to /sdcard/. Also, you should be able to install from a folder as long as you mount the system and select install zip from sdcard.
Onto my sdcard and guess what??? You can't have 2 android folders. Damn it some off the dumbest mistakes are so easy to do.

Change your Android folder to what ever you want and edit the startup.txt accordingly. You can have as many build as your heart desire.
Yeah I know. What I'm saying is....I used androzip to unzip to sdcard, which when writing to specified location OVERWRITES any existing folder named android with the one it is unzipping. I'm retarted for short

Use pocketrar and you can set the location it extracts to, chose something like Android2, Android3 etc then in startup.txt edit this line:
Code:
set cmdline "rel_path=Android2"
Set the rel_path to whatever folder its in, and there you go.
Hello all, I'm looking for a 4g data icon for royal glacier, not the green one posted for cm7.
Any available?
Thanks in advance.

There are white 4G icons in reddv1's 4G icons.zip icon pack http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=994733
Thread doesn't say where to place white icons. There is just a flashed for green

Wow. The title of your thread even says what ROM you're on. I'm an idiot. Anyway, standby I'm downloading it now. I'll take a peek and let you know...
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
ok. sorry it took me so long to get back, I had a break-dancing stripper emergency
first, thanks to TeamRoyal, Reddv1 and DjDarkKnight96
this method will require a new flash of RoyalGlacier
Do a nandroid backup! and i'm not responsible for what YOU do to YOUR phone, blah blah blah, yakity shmakity
If you don't have TeamRoyal's RoyalGlacier.zip or Reddv1's 4G Icons.zip, download them to your computer
Here is how I did it:
from computer using a program called 7-Zip (it's free on the interwebz, google it)
right-click on RoyalGlacier.zip icon, highlight 7-zip, choose Open Archive. Do not extract it
open system folder, open framework folder. Right-click framework-res.apk (it's toward the bottom), select open inside. Open res folder, open drawable-hdpi-v4 folder. The files to change are way down at the bottom. Leave this window open
This is the file path in RoyalGlacier.zip - system\framework\framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi-v4\
Now, right-click 4G Icons.zip, highlight 7-zip, choose Open Archive. Do not extract it.
The file names in RoyalGlacier.zip are the same as the WHITE icons in 4G Icons.zip
Just delete one stat_sys_data_whatever_h.png file from RoyalGlacier.zip and drag-and-drop in same file from 4G Icons.zip
Save new RoyalGlacier.zip to SDcard and flash per TeamRoyal's instructions
let me know if this helps
Hope someone could help me out with this one, I just did a back of my rom using xrecovery. Does that back file get saved on my sdcard and if so where, and does it get saved as a zip file?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
It gets saved at /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/ in a regular folder. The folder contains 3 image files (system.img, data.img, cache.img) and a nandroid.md5 file.

Hi,
AND don´t rename the folders like I did because then the MD5 sum does not fit anymore.

I always rename the folders. I find it hard to keep track of them by the dates alone. I always name them something along the lines of YYYY-MM-DD.HH.MM.SS-ROM-NAME-BASEBAND. That always works for me.
EDIT: But I NEVER touch any of the files inside.

You can rename xrec back up but dont put spaces on it. Eg; gb2.3_Stock or whatever you like but no spaces.

Howdy,
I root and flashed my wife's mytouch 3g slide this weekend and apparently she cant live without a specific ringtone. She believes it was called pentatonic. I did some googling, but none were correct. Would anyone here still have a default install that could see if this ringtone was on there? If so, I would appreciate a copy!
Thanks
you could always download the orginal rom she had and extract the ringtone from there, then put it on sd card in a folder called ringtones (make one if you need to)

I have the zips of it at least, but it doesnt open in Windows for some reason. Do I maybe need a 3rd party zip app?
yeah you may need to extract it with winrar or 7zip if your using windows

Winrar, and then yaffey to read the img file worked great. Thanks!
