Will the OV get a touch recovery?

[00_wrath_00]

Just wondering if our phones will get a touch recovery like the OS? I know the OS and OV are the same phones with the hard buttons swapped. So I know and can verify it will work on our phone. Just wanna know if we can get one to call an OV touch recovery.

I honestly might try flashing it later.

Worst case scenario I just adb another recovery.img over it if it doesn't work

I'm actually using it now makes it a lot easier. The only thing is it doesn't show progress bar or and words saying its loading files. But it works

The last touch recovery for for the Evo bricked a ton of phones.

so far so good with this OS touch recovery. flashed IHO,ICS and weekend project with zero problems. i read on the OS forums that battery wipe was taken out because it does nothing for their phones. would that be true for our phones since they have the same hardware?

Wiping battery stats does nothing for all droid phones, if I am correct.

Correct. Wiping battery stats does nothing, but the CWM team (aka Koush) hyped the "feature" and it quickly became a common misconception about Android.

I'm gonna try to build a version of CWMT for the Optimus V wither tonight or tomorrow.

I honestly like the old recovery, you actually have to press buttons to do something, not say that you accidentally pressed something. It's only good if your buttons are broken or something.

It's kinda hard to "accidentally" flash or wipe something when the only buttons are back, up, down and menu. Also, the hardware buttons still work as expected so you don't even have to touch the screen to use it.

If you get one built let me know ill be first inline to use it. Id be willing to test also.

The reasons I use the OS touch recovery is because 1. I hate the IHO recovery because you have to use the camera button to select and hate the orange color. 2. The touch is a lot easier on my hands to use. But I mean to each their own. Everyone has their preferences. Oh and drew when you build one for the OV can you keep it the color It is for the OS? More plesent and easier to see IMHO.

I have seen times where a battery wipe was needed to correct errors, but most should never have to.

It can be done manually if needed, I'm sure you know that though.

I think a touch recovery for the v would be a nice option to have. Some will use it some won't. I think I'd stay with my tried n true IHO recovery

I love the OS touch recovery I'm using on my OV. drew did an awesome job on the OS recovery so I know the OV one will be top notch.

I have had no problems with making and restoring backups. But I agree be nice to have our own touch recovery.
