Root [Development] CWM recovery

jyothis1990 said:
I got a working ClockworkMod recovery compiled from a developer in XDA. Only thing is, it won't show anything at all in the device screen :( But I can use it through DDMS screencapture tool. It works perfectly, I took backup, restored, mounted USB, etc. See screenshot :

Now my question is : Can you make it show up in the device screen? I believe there is only a minor adjustment needed for the display trouble as everything else is working so perfectly. Please help!

Attaching the recovery here : Please note that I have renamed the .img file to .zip :) Credits for this recovery goes to Eklovya (XDA)

Is this working on a57
 
I am waiting for someone to run strace in the recovery mode and send me the log..

I can then build a recovery from source for you..

Please tell us how to do that. I searched a lot but couldn't find the procedure for that. Please guide us. Many of us are ready, but don't know how to run an strace like u said.

Hello,

Now after so many days of trial and error...

I have finally managed to get a working CWM on the phone the A87.

I have a feeling that this would work on the A57 too.

If somebody can test it and let us know, it would be great..

Here is the link - recovery.img

You can flash it through FASTBOOT

Yes, sh binary is in the system/bin but not in recovery mode...

You need to push the binary through adb push when you are in the recovery mode and if needed busybox as well and then you will be able to get into shell
 
<Emails removed by moderator> he is trying to compile a cwm r for a57!! I m testing but I dnt have my pc where all the sdks are but am having a lappy!! so all i can do is test the recoveries!! we should all get together on gtalk!!

Bro,

I guess you can unpack and repack recovery.img

Unpack the stock recovery.img and add sh and busybox files to it change permissions, pack it again and flash the recovery

Then you will be able to run strace.
