BacksideUpdater Auto-Install
Note- This video is of V2.2, will make one of V3.3 soon
Why another recovery?
Current recoveries for the Optimus V have some built in support for automatic installation of OTA and update packages. This has never been utilized by ROM developers for the OV, and I hope to change that by making the process a little less scary for everyone. Together with the BacksideUpdater, you can now quickly and effortlessly install ROM updates!
What's different?
--For manual usage by rebooting into recovery, I've added the ability to wipe cache and dalvik cache together.
(will be adding option to format boot+system+data as well)
--For automatic installation, I've added the ability to wipe cache and dalvik cache together, and enabled
the text-gui during the auto-install process so you can see what is happening.
--Based off IHO recovery source, with fix for UMS (Universal Mass Storage), so you can mount your sdcard in recovery
--Home key is the select now, no more messing with that two-stage camera key (always worried it would break)
--And of course I made it Green
Installation Instructions:
1-- Download CWM-Green-recovery-05022012.img to your sdcard
2-- Open Terminal emulator (available in the Play Store)
3-- Type the following two lines:
Note- change /sdcard to where you put the zip file, ex: /sdcard/download/CWM-Green-Recovery-05022012.zip
