So, in other words....for your recovery to show all important. .ZIP files...I can just "move" them to my "root" file?? If not..where in "root" do my. ZIP files need to be placed??

Correct in sd card not in any folder. I'm testing an update to recovery that allows zips in any folder currently.

I tossed you a, "thanks" just because you are working on an update that would save me some frustration and making my life (and lots of other users lives ) easier.
I know you hear (read) this a lot....but, thank you very much for all you've done AND STILL doing for this lil, "somewhat~smart phone"
Your work is VERY appreciated.
Thx again!

P.S. Could u either reply or PM me 'your' suggested instructions on -how to get my files "onto root", as I am man enough to admit. ..I have just a slight idear as to how to go about this. Thx. ...3x's now...lol
 
Get new version in rommanager with directory browsing like clockwork. Its v1.2.5. Make sure you flash the remove-install-recovery.zip from 1st post.

Can you only get 1.2.5 from Rom Manager or are you going to make a flash version like you did for the rest of the versions?
 
In the RA-Aloha 1.2.4 Backup/Restore submenu there are listings for backing up and restoring "Google proprietary system files". I am guessing these files do NOT get backed up when using the NAND +* options above those listings in that menu. What kinds of files are these and are they essential if restoring a backup?

Also, where are the Google proprietary system files backed up to? I have 2 Nandroid+EXT backups in the SD/nandroid/mem=233 folder, and then ran the Backup Google proprietary system files command. Back in Velocity I viewed the files on the SD card and do not see any change to the contents of the nandroid backup folder.

I would like to learn how to decode those nandroid backup file names. I thought it was just the YR-MO-DAY and a time code, but I made 2 backups on Jan 2nd, and the 2nd one has 20110103 in it instead of 0102?

Thanks!
 
I am rooted with super one click on my ally which gave me no fast boot can I just follow the instructions for rooted users or do I have to go though getting fastboot I want to run the Velocity 1.0 Rom. Thanks for all the hard work! Elwin
 
Ok I feel like an idiot, but I need help and some of the stuff mentioned just goes over my head. I have a rooted lg ally 2.2.1. I used the rommanager to flash and when it rebooted and i did the flash with turbo4 I got an error and it locked up. I had to reboot but now it gets stuck on the verizon wireless logo. I tried the send/menu/power and it shows the android guy with an exclamation point then jsut skips that and goes back to the verizon wireless logo. Not sure where to go. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am more than willing to send a donation to get this fixed.
 
i suggest you try going to the Ally IRC chat room and seeking help there. Your problem sounds beyond my abilities, but I am sure some of the people who hang there will offer help and likely a solution, and it is in real time. They have been tremendously helpful to me as well as to countless others. One of the most helpful people will have some variant of his "Dots" member name logged in there when he is available (which seems to be almost all the time!).

If you are not familiar with Ally IRC, go here for access and a brief description:

Good luck!

Ya it sounds like I bricked it and trying another way, but probably going to have to call and state it messed up while doing an OTA update. :( Thanks for the reply.

Thats an option to backup google stuff for cyanogen mod roms that I never fully implemented. Nandroid fully backs-up them.
