This will flash CWM Touch 6.0.1.1 to your phone.

I used the previous CMW Touch I had and PG's Touch and the 6.0.1.1 IMG file and made a whole new install.



READ THIS CAREFULLY!!!!!

Now with CWM 6.0, not just touch but 6.0 in general, CWM has changed the way they make backups. You might have noticed a folder next to your "backups" folder named "blobs". CWM makes backups like a pc makes backups now. When you make your FIRST backup with 6.0, it might take longer than normal. This is because it is completely backing up everything. Ok, so say you download some apps and you want to make another backup. CWM will scan to see what has changed and ONLY backup the files thats changed while leaving the files that didn't change untouched because they are already backed up.

So when you go to restore a backup, it will scan through the blobs folder for the files pertaining to that specific backup. So it's very very very important that you DONT TOUCH THE BLOBS folder.

If you delete a backup, the NEXT time you run a backup, CWM will manually DELETE the files in the blobs folder that aren't present anymore.

Make sense? Whats the purpose of this you ask? Well it will save you time if you make a lot of backups like me and it will save you space. Instead of having 5 backups that are all the same except for a couple of apps, you will have 5 backups but only the differences within those 5 backups you made will get backed up.

I recommend trying to flash it first through ROM Manager under LGE Esteem 4G NOT LGE Esteem.

-MAKE SURE FIREWALL IS OFF OR SET TO ACCEPT ADB!!!!!!!

-Phone will reboot 2-3 times.


As soon as it says "Daemon started......" Phone found........" It SHOULD reboot automatically when it says "Phone rebooting".



Enjoy CWM Touch 6.0.1.1 Official


Added 6.0.0.0 if anyone wants it. UI is different.




CWM Touch is a FREE download from CWM's site. :D
 
umm if you installed the last one I post its the same just rebuilt by koush. The touch I built was on his server anyhow, just had to be merged into the RM stuff for it to show in RM. ;)

Long as you bought touch n have touch n it says 6.0.1.0 your good ;)

and this could been posted in my CWM thread ;)

I flashed it through ROM manager. 6.0.1.1. is what says is installed and the current version. I was using the "other" touch and I flashed this one and have been reverted back to the original CWM.

Download PG's CWM touch from here http://unleashedprepaids.com/media/phones/esteem/CWM-Installer-LG-Esteem.zip

Download the 6.0.1.1 CWM touch for the LGE Esteem from CWM website.

Extract the CWM zip you downladed from PG and extract to desktop.

Open the files folder.

Delete the cwmrecovery.img file

Paste the CWM touch 6.0.1.1 file in the files folder. I renamed it cwmrecovery.img just to make sure.

Go back and run the program as normal

It will flash 6.0.1.1



Works great. It's different than 6.0.1.0. Different UI
