Looks awesome. Will flash once I get this thing rooted...

EDIT: flashed the recovery without any issues. Will update once I've flashed Karendar's custom ROM.
EDIT: Everything seems to have worked perfectly - Flashed V20B_R2_Custom_Stock.zip without any errors/problems. Kept all my previous apps and settings to boot.

Thanks for the feedback!

I'm going to keep trying to get TWRP working as well, and.will probably start work on my Extended Power menu with screenshot support.

You know why this recovery rocks? Because it mounts sd-ext properly. Which means if you use app2sd you can backup your app partition! Just for that, it's worth its weight in GOLD! Thanks jparasite, great port! And glad you got the brightness figured out. Reason I gave you 255 is because I was using it on my Galaxy S2... Which seems to have a larger range of brightness levels. :| hehe.

Tested USB mounting, SD-ext, backup... Haven't restored. And on top of that, it actually detects adb which Amon-RA does not. Only thing missing from this recovery is the touchscreen support which was built into a few recoveries. haha

**EDIT** BTW, just E-Mailed LG to see when they'll release v20B source... Waiting for an answer. Last time I mailed them, it was uploaded 48 hours later.

Just got a reply from LG, they should have source uploaded within a week or two.

Awesome. As soon as it's up I'll attempt to compile LOL, hopefully it won't blow up this time.

Open Source Detail

v20b source is out

Everytime I click download it says FILE NOT FOUND. Were you able to get it?

 

[cjmaniac]

I am able to d/l a copy if you want me to upload a copy elsewheres?

 

[karendar]

Yeah, LG fudged up the download. I harrassed them again to fix it. Had to send them a screenshot showing the 404 error before they actually knew what I was talking about! haha.

It downloads now.

I must be missing something.

I'm in root, have the # sign and the two files are in the root director of my SD Card. I open ConnectBot, the terminal I have on my phone and type "adb shell" and all I get is permission denied. I've tried with debugging on and off as well as with usb plug in and not. I always get the same error. If I enter SU first, then I get "adb: not found".

I've googled adb and know that it's related to debugging but have not come across any light bulb moments.

Any suggestions?

I'm running 2.3.3 with V20b

 

[Norwal]

Ok I now figured out that it a Terminal on my Computer and not the phone and that the usb drivers were corrupted. So now I have the ADB Shell working but "cp: not found" is the next hurdle. I love this stuff.

 

[Norwal]

I found the solution. For some reason Busybox wasn't working. I found the solution here:
cp not found on Root Droid

My phone is backing up as I type.

 

[jparasite]

Bump, as I've updated CWM to the latest version available. Hopefully there are no bugs with this release.

Thanks. I finally got around to installing it. Never really dealth with ADB stuff before, so I learned a little something .
It didn't backup the SD-EXT partition for me, though, but that's minor.

FYI, "Reboot Menu" by Rice Knight (at Android Market/Play) works for rebooting into recovery.
