Root BH_MAN Recovery w/ ADB Support

[BH_MAN]

Now that we have a recovery! How much does this advance us into the Android world?

Still out of the Game... Very Helpful if you know how to set permission & know your way around linux....

Between my Recovery & Kernel, there is no Reason why we can't port stuff now.... I've Provided the Tools along with Nu11u5, so now everyone should be able to build & port there own stuff of android...

 

[BH_MAN]

Revision 2 is Now Posted with More Goodies & and Safety net in place

 

[paul89]

k I tested and confirmed working! Thanks!

Hope to Have Hero, then 2.1 ported shortly
Will Post the Kernel shortly as well.

Seriously?

 

[Android Fiend]

great work on the recovery, all we need is nandroid and flashing roms. maybe there are ways to port features from ra recoveries, if possible.

 

[shawn1224]

Please tell me this recovery has something similar to nand backup

 

[2FR35H]

Updating the Recovery & Kernel that will Automatically Fix Permission's on SH & SU if you go Pushing New stuff into the system/bin... Just a safety net to make sure the SH permission's don't get messed up..

Hope to Have Hero, then 2.1 ported shortly
Will Post the Kernel shortly as well.

Whaat? Hero and 2.1 android? Impressive.

You can't brick from flashing a recovery..

 

[paul89]

LMAO people don't really know what brick means!

 

[i2hi4u]

Doesnt charge, doesnt turn on, doesnt go to recovery, doesnt go to download mode, doesnt do anything. Complete and utter $450 paperweight lol

Mine did the same thing... but not when attempting this. I was actually rooting. Take the battery out for about 5 mins, and try again. For some reason, that worked for me.

Let me know if that works.

Ouch! Not really sure what happen during the Flashing, but that very ODD! I've flashed bad Recovery's & Kernel's and never had this Problem...

The only time I have ever Bricked the Behold 2, was by using the Wrong .ops during flashing ( I had used the Galaxy .ops once ).... And I bricked the Second Behold 2 by flashing the Radio from the Galaxy to the Behold 2 trying to use the Bootloader that the Galaxy comes with, being that there's is unlocked....

Honestly from the Sounds of things, & from Personal experience.... Sounds Like the Galaxy .ops file was used....

 

[i2hi4u]

used the behold II ops from your post. i think it was from the r7. was very wierd. used all of your roms with no issues. Kind of a bummer because i had a god batterythats right god. All day on internet, wifi, music playing for almost 11 hours and using less than 50% of battery. used your ops and flashed this in the PDA portion. I tryed leaving the battery out and all other tricks. I have had bad odin loads before but this one made it do NOTHING. it dont matter though my bday coming soon and im getting another newer phone hoping for samsung galaxy s

 

[spinwizard]

I agree, both my bricks were from flashing the wrong ops. From the early days, before BH_MAN, I tried to flash the Galaxy's .ops, way to eager for 2.1.

Stay Tuned For a Video Later tonight / Morning here... Hell, Might even be a Release I Don't know yet....

Video lol, Video of what??? Release? 2.1...ya right I wish!

of the recovery....
I got Shell working correctly now.... so if you mess with SH / Linker / Dalvik / App_Process you don't lose Root.... I mean you would have to type SH then repair those File before rebooting, but I now have it loading anyways..

There some other stuff I need to do, but I think doing an update.zip is Possible as well after messing around with the recovery.... Need more testing for sure & I need to get ahold of Barak for testing as well... My Update.zip tries to Run, but I have the system partition mounted so I know it wont run like that at the moment...

Like I said, More testing needs done, I also need to get ahold of Amon_RA regarding getting the start & end for maybe getting nandroid working... But I wont keep my figures crossed for this one since it is rfs partitions

 

[paul89]

cool, I think a fully working recovery should be yours and our top priority!

 

[BH_MAN]

cool, I think a fully working recovery should be yours and our top priority!

Well, the Major thing with this new recovery.... Even if only we Get a busybox shell, it will let people start porting / Pushing files to /system/bin & still being able to repair the files in bin... This was the biggest issue with recovery... You pushed any files in to bin with the current Recovery I modded & you break Permission on SH and other files that hinder the system from booting...

Like I said, even if this is all I get working, it's still better than what I have out right now....

[paul89]

Its lookin good! Starting to look like a recovery that has a lot of options as compared to the lame Samsung recovery.

 

[Android Fiend]

GREAT JOB! We'll probably have a working recovery in a month or so

 

[BH_MAN]

Going to work on the Recovery again tonight when I get home

working so Far!
- Reboot
- Shutdown, works but Reboots phone lol
- SD Partitioning works
- Ext 2 /3 Works
- Dalivk-cache Wipe Works
- Move apps2sd works
- Menu Wipe Data /Cache still
- Busybox
- Busybox SH


It's looking Good to say the Least

 

[mak213]

since now we have a recovery menu, cant we make roms in a "Update.zip" platform to flash in recovery menu so we dnt have to keep using odin (hence i like to switch back and forth between custom roms and other peoples stuff) also like flash themes in recovery menu via update zip
