Clockwork recovery status?

I am waiting for the Clockwork recovery DHD to be ready. It seams to be ready for G2, DZ and MT4G. Is there a problem getting it to work properly on DHD?
I know there is a test version out, but i dont think you can flash stuff with it.
Paul(Modaco) Tweeted that a realese was close several days ago. Nothing yet.
I was just wondering if anyone had any info on the progress?
I read Leedroids twitter and he sad he will have his DHD on Monday so roms will start to come.

Patience is a virtue!! Seriously though, we're very lucky to even be in the position to be talking about using custom recoveries and ROMs. We all knew the situation in regards to the lockdown from HTC when we bought the phone, so it's a bit early to be panicking, especially with all the breakthroughs of late.
Paul only tweeted regarding his rebuilt CWM on Friday, and then came into the thread linked by Evostance above to state it needed some tweaks and testing before it would be released.
The G2 is huge in America hence the rapid development of CWM and unofficial builds of CyanogenMod appearing. The DZ, being almost identical hardware has benefitted from this fact. Unfortunately we don't have the same Dev base as the G2 but nonetheless our Devs' are just as dedicated and working hard towards achieving custom ROMs.
There is a modified HBOOT (ENG) image enabling ADB etc. in the Android Development section if you literally cannot wait any longer. If you can then just keep checking the sub forum for the latest developments.
Not long to go now!
Regards.

With the eventual release of Grand 2 sometime soon, I don't think Samsung will deliver 4.4 on our device.
And the devs has not yet managed to stabilize CM 10.2, let alone CM 11. It might take months from now, be patient.
If you can't, you probably should've bought a Nexus device.

It's not about which device get released first, but it's about its market target and the product line it is included in. S and Note lines get the updates first because those are Samsung flagships and they're released worldwide. Grand is a midrange device and is specifically targeted where dual sim demand is high (India, China, SE Asia, etc) not the U.S. and Europe. That's why Grand doesn't get the attention they get, and our forums is placed in "Legacy & Low Activity Devices" section.

True yet we got 4.2.2 official before note 2 or s series got 4.3,,though being a mid range device it mde a lot of sales records here in india overall i agree with you note and s series are the flagships even phones like grand and mega should also be included with regard to the updates thats ma own opinion because as google doesn’t discriminate in the same way Samsung shouldn't and i also read smewr bout grand to end its update cycle to 4.2.2 hopefully that must be false if thrs sme base far 4.3 cm 11 can be developed!!!

I think TouchWiz is to blame for the lack of updates to midrange devices... It takes simply too much time and resources for Samsung to make Touchwiz work on newer Android versions and they see it not worth the time and money to update midranges.
The day Samsung decides to stop updating our device is the day we rely to rom devs. The beauty of Android. :good:

No chance of official 4.4, even if Samsung decides to give us 4.4 it will not be before the next android version. Legacy and low level device doesnt mean we can't have a stable cm11 or cm10.2. We have the developers working on 10.2 and I would applaud their efforts for fixing almost everything. For now our device is dependent on pawitp and lets hope he removes some time for fixing RIL of cm 10.2. Once 10.2 is sorted we can have a cm11 compiled by k2wl. One thing I have noticed is that cm10.2 is running into the same problems as 10.1. Like ril and microphone. I'm guessing cm10.2 devs have had a look at pawitp's patches for the respective problems. Until then keep you're fingers crossed and don't loose hope.:good:

I think they have already made a look on them because kingbabasula had shared dual sim soutces released on cms github so its pretty close smewr that they hve looked on the patches as slimbean and resurrection remix hve been worked over cyanogenmod 10.1's sources provided by pawitp but you never know lets wait and watch if k2wl replies and i only felt we might get 4.4 because i read google has reportedly said it can work flawlessly even on low end devices wid 2 or 300mb ram capacity because of its sleekness then why not on grand lets just wait i have heck lot of hopes from XENON92 hes my fav developer:beer::thumbup:

Petition for Samsung to release 4.2.2 update OR Exynos 4 Sources

Hello!
I've started the petition "SAMSUNG Galaxy S2 Android 4.2.2 UPDATE (OR) EXYNOS 4 SOURCES: Please release an update to Android 4.2.2 for the Galaxy S2 (OR) Alternatively a release of Exynos 4 Sources will allow developers to take over." and need your help to get it off the ground.
Will you take 30 seconds to sign it right now? Here's the link:
Add " h t t p : / / " and then visit the below link:
Code:
change.org/petitions/samsung-galaxy-s2-android-4-2-2-update-or-exynos-4-sources-please-release-an-update-to-android-4-2-2-for-the-galaxy-s2-or-alternatively-a-release-of-exynos-4-sources-will-allow-developers-to-take-over
Here's why it's important:
The Samsung Galaxy S2 was a great device and has received 2 updates: IceCreamSandwich (4.0 to 4.0.4) and JellyBean (4.1). Samsung halted the JellyBean update at 4.1 and did not proceed to release 4.2 or 4.3. We Samsung Galaxy S2 users want an incremental update to atleast 4.2.2, as the S2 Plus (S2's sister device) has received the update. The S2 Plus is relatively similar to the S2 (except CPU and GPU), so an HDPI screensize is not an excuse for not releasing an update. If Samsung and/or its Developers are not benefitting from the development of an update to the S2, why not release Exynos 4 Sources and allow the third-party developer community to take over?
Please sign this petition if you are interested in seeing some development take place for this magnificent device.
Note:- This Petition applies to the following devices:
Samsung Galaxy S 2 (International) GT-I9100
Samsung Galaxy Note 1 (International) GT-N7000
Thanks!

Your initiative its a good start but this doesnt mean that samsung will hear 2-3 voices whispering "update s2" we need a lot of people to sign but even that its probability of update is very low,by low i mean 0.001% , but, if we can try , why not?...anyway s2 is old , thats the true reason why sammy wont update it
I see that it is your first post here , you are a new s2 owner/xda user?

sorry, this might be a bit out of topic,
but I own sgs 2 and i haven't tried the custom rom, although it is already rooted.
the reason i haven't tried it was because in every room especially the new os i.e. 4.2.2 > always has some basic function that doesn't work
such as bluetooth, GPS/Wifi or even restart when changing from landscape to portrait, etc. (CMIIW)
so if the release of the exynos source would ensure full functionality of custom rom then i'll vote on it.
in the mean time is there any other branded phone that offer custom room with working function?

I have been using a custom ever since I got the phone and 4.2.2 and 4.3.1 are perfectly stable for me and has been for awhile now... no such problems as you mentioned.

These threads are just as amusing as the noobs who post 'OMGZ ! Such & such rom is on the S3 I want someone to port it to the S2 now !' threads in Q&A.
Edit - Also, this thread is superfluous given the long running thread re: this issue here (with petitions & other nonsense).

Hi

Hi all. I'm farmer. I'm new to development. I have done a lot with the android systems for some time and have used XDA forums for help always.
Now I would like to contribute. As I said I am new. I would like to volunteer to be a tester for Roms for the n900a. (Note 3 att). If there is any Dev's out there interested in taking me as their student with android development, I will in turn use my skills that I already have and incorporate to attempt to unlock the boot loader for att note 3. I have rooted n900a with purerom. Not afraid of bricks. Hit me up.
