[Recovery] Unofficial CWM Recovery 5.0.2.7[u8800pro&u8800]

I take no responsibility for any harm that comes to your phone as a result of applying this mod.
unofficial Clockwork Mod Recovery 5.0.2.7 for u8800pro and u8800 [upgrade to offical 2.3 GB]
Installation Instructions (upgrading - root explorer method):
Using any file explorer which is able to remount as writeable (such as root explorer), browse to the /cust_backup directory and remount it as writeable
Navigate to the image directory and backup up the current recovery by renaming it to something like recovery.bak, or _recovery.img
Rename the downloaded recovery to recovery.img and copy to the image directory.
Installation Instructions (new install):
Unplug any usb connection and turn the phone completely off
Whilst holding both the volume + and volume - keys hold the power button to turn the device on. Let go when you see a pink/purple screen.
Attach the usb cable to your computer and wait until a few usb mass storage devices are detected and mounted. Look for one that has just one directory called 'image' in it. Navigate into this directory and you'll see recovery.img etc.
(optional) Rename recovery.img to recovery_backup.img
copy the new recovery.img to image, unmount the mass storage device (safely remove in windows) and then pull the battery out to turn the phone off.
Hold volume + and power to boot to recovery.
Install any custom rom
change：
mod the kernel,Ums is worked now
use zte u880‘s charge png
can install zip from emmc and use emmc backup&restore
add ext4 fs support
about SDcard
if you can't mount SDcard in recovery,do this:
enter "advanced"--"Reboot Recovery"
then you could use the SDcard
ps:this is issue of offical GB,not recovery!

I have same problem!

please upload the recovery.log

Did you finally find out if there is a bug in the recovery?
Once you put the recovery, would Rom Manager detect it?

Got it. Unofficial...

Tested on u8800 and works very good. SD card sometimes can't mout properly, but i guess it's not an issue from CMW.
I've done a official GB backup, restored without a glitch, installed ICS demo without any problem too.

Can I upgrade my u8800 to official beta 2.3.5 and use this CWM to upgrade to cm7 or miui if I won't be able to use ics demo?

Was it a backup you did with this CWM version? Or with the stockwell's CWM? The old backups don't work with this one I believe.

the backup its before this version of course. but even with this new CWM I cant flash new rom. I says error blablabla id u8800pro. I installed this because I wanted to try new ICSrom but now Im stuck to it lol

Have you flashed official GB before installing this recovery? I think you need to do that before this works in the original U8800.

yes I did ! the ICS works but not others.

Hmm, I tried to restore my backup from yesterday done with stockwells 5.0.2.6 recovery and my phone got ****ed up. I know I shouldn't have done this but I just had to try. xD Now I can't get past the Huawei logo, when I push the power the phone starts but just turns off after couple of seconds. I can get to bootloader (pink screen) but not to recovery. I hope no one else has tried this and I hope I get my phone working again.
Would anyone have any advice how to get my phone back up and running? Or should I just go bring it to warranty support?

have you tried to replace the recovery.img from this topic again? that happened to me too when I tried to go back with CWM v4 but then I replaced with this

zyxwvut said:
Monzer, when you install bootmenu are you installing the .apk and then opening the app and then clicking to install 2nd init? This is the right procedure! after you do this reboot your phone and watch for blue led to flash during boot, hit volume down once it flashes blue.
What 2nd init version are you installing? here is the latest http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=792601&d=1322064151
Are you trying to flash CM7?
There is a very old version of CWM that should be suitable if all else fails you. It should work just fine to flash CM7 but not so sure about CM9. However if you want to flash CM9 You could use this old version of CWM to flash CM7 which will in turn install a new version of 2nd init which is definitely suitable for flashing CM9. This old CWM "might" work for flashing CM9 but I dunno if I would try or not! Download in my attachment below!
You MUST enable USB debugging to install.
copy the apk to your sdcard and use a file manager to install it then open the app in your app drawer and choose to install the custom recovery (with USB dubugging ON)
THIS STEP IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!
AFTER INSTALLING THE CUSTOM RECOVERY DISABLE USB DEBUGGING.
You enter CWM by again opening the app and choosing reboot to recovery (with USB debuggind OFF)

This is how to access pink screen folder (U8800 2.3 28.12.2011)

yes, you have to access the cust_img folder with a file explorer, inside your phone, you can do the trick with es file explorer. i recoomend to use root explorer

i can acess the cust_backup folder and replace cwm recovery image, but im not able to flash anything with that clockwork mode. it just reboot in the "opening package" step

From Official 2.3 to old MIUI?

Hello. I downgraded from MIUI to the 2.2.2 (dload folder on sd card method)
then i upgraded to official 2.3 using dload on sdcard method.
How to i revert this?
I have tried using the 2.2.2 dload method, then boot into pink screen to install newest recovery, the recovery works and i can restore my old MIUI, BUT it wont boot. just stuck on the new Huawei logo.
and yes i have tried let it boot right after the 2.2.2 dload method is complete but it then enters recovery and some error massaged are displayed, and it wont boot the rom, just recovery..
Any Suggestions?

Why did you upgrade back to 2.3 if you were planning to install .32 Miui? You have to have .32 ROM installed when you install Miui .32, .35 when you install .35 Miui. If I misunderstood and you have .32, try Fixing permissions in CWM.

Currently i have the Official 2.3 because i cant get any other rom to work..
But i want to get back MIUI, my question is How?
I upgraded because i wanted to try the Aurora 4.0 rom, but i gave up as i couldnt get root on the official 2.3 with superoneclick or any other app.
Thanks
btw. How does the U8800 work? I cant flash MIUI on top of the official 2.3 because of the kernel not compatible right?
and in pink screen, is the Boot.img the kernel? if so can i just replace that one with an older kernel and MIUI will work?

Go to settings/backup reset
There's an option install update from sdcard
That should do it

I see you're familiar with the "usual" way of downgrading...try doing it again, or a couple more times. When I upgraded to .35 to try Aurora ICS I had to flash the rom (ICS) like 3 times before it booted properly (was getting a bootloop before). Also if you don't apply the update (downgrade) more than once you can get a few "traces" of .35 system apps in your .32 rom (I downgraded applying the update only once and now have apps like 2.3.5's file manager, notes app, appinstaller, in my .32 rom.I didn't notice any problems apart from that though.). Hope it helps.

going back
Hi there - I had similar troubles after I updated to stock 2.3.5 (latest edition) bootloader is now locked and previous exploits no good
Here is what I did:
Reflashed with 2.3.5 beta using vol+vol- I found it on XDA, can't remember where at the mo
then used superoneclick -worked fine
However my phone got stuck in boot loop after I tried to install CWM however I found that adb still worked and I used that to mount .cust_backup as rw and copied CWM recovery.img on there then took battery out and rebooted in to CWM and did factory reset and personally i installed aurora ICS 2.0 (2.02 gave me simcard issues) it all worked fine - took some fiddling for me but I hope this would make it easier for you
