[RECOVERY] Cannibal Open Touch v1.2 (latest update: 06/24/2012)

Re: [RECOVERY] Cannibal Open Touch v1.0.5 (Moar fixes!)

Going over aroma installer, I've flashed many roms on my evo 4g that uses it but they all had to be flashed using rom manager because aroma has a built in installer eliminating the need to flash using recovery.
It reboots the phone into aroma installer not recovery for install, although it probably does run on top of the currently installed recovery.
This is just a stab in the dark I'm not sure if its 100% right or not but aroma is a script that has to be built into the rom zip file.

AROMA Installer runs on top of recovery, and even works on top of Cannibal Open Touch (AROMA is not dependent on any specific software or recovery). I gotta say, AROMA Installer is a brilliant work of art. I've been experimenting with it

The only main issue I had with it while experimenting was that you aren't allowed to sign your zip file. Only the aroma-config and update-script. But other than that I agree wholly that it is a wonderful piece of work.

Edit: that and the touch implementation was a little screwy, kept having phantom presses in an area I had been touching and moved from. I think it's an aroma problem though as it does it even with cannibal installed.

I download to my sd card, rename to recovery.img.
Open terminal emulator.
$ su (return)
# flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img (return)
Close term and reboot to recovery.

Flash_image needs to be put in /system/bin and have correct permissions set. That's why you can't use it

Sorry. I found it only works on some roms.

Ah, it is included with the test rom but not others.

Not sure if its the rom I was going to flash or if it was the recovery but I was going to try and test one of tdm's ov roms and I kept getting error 7 and it was saying something about build prop errors

Was it something to do with assert and/or getprop? If so, it's not a bug in the recovery. Tell tdm to remove the asserts from his updater-script.

the flash_image binary needs to go into /system/bin. then the permissions need to be 755

do it over adb.

assuming flash_image is on the root of your sd card (NOT the zip or RAR, the actual .bin file)

# cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image
# chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image

then, from inside android, using term emulator or adb

# flash_image recovery /sdcard/wwhatever_you_named_file.img
then you should get a whole bunch of output
sucessfully wrote block at such and such an address
should end with successfully wrote recovery partition
then:
# reboot recovery

that should work

When I flash the recovery I do not get any output or successful message. I just type in the flash_image recovery /sdcard/name of recovery.img and like 2 seconds later the # pops back up and then I reboot into recovery and bam, done.

I see it in the terminal on my phone.
Must be another difference in ROM.

It may have been asserts it was talking about, I know one of the lines had VM670 in it. I bet that is the issue

Oh, you're on an Optimus V. I definitely can't help you there. This copy of Cannibal Open Touch is for the Optimus S (LS670) ONLY.
