Over 4000 downloads and you are the only one that thinks my recovery screwed up your phone. All throughout this thread. You're boasting about starting from scratch and wolfdroid was not part of my instructions. Watch the video. And I made a video of how to get in download since you don't follow instructions properly. 4000 downloads. You can take over.
I was testing a data/media back up image and uploaded but never posted it and now your phone is no good. And 1 person downloaded it. I was just waiting to see who it was. My Question answered. Thanks.

ummm...ok. no3w i understand.....never downloaded anything from you..ecxet the 2.8.7 and 3.0.2.0 that you had posted. besides the point. "I" am responsible for my phone...NOT you. im not asking for your help, as you OBVIOUSLY CANNOT READ this simple thread. THERE IS NO DOWNLOAD MODE! THERE IS NO RECOVERY! THERE IS NO BOOT! THERE IS NO OS. the files are there, in their proper partitions, PARTITIONS ARE NOT BEING READ. to any1else....google: OMNI ROM IS NOT FOR THIS PHONE!! THERE CARE CURRENTLY NO CUSTOM ROMS FOR THIS PHONE, SO TWRP BASED OFF CUSTOM ROMS ARE PROBABLY NOT A WISE CHOICE!!! FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK. i take nothing from the dev, no doubt hard work, but a poor attitude when he finds out his creation DOES NOT WORK FOR EVERYONE. as for 4000 dnlds....well i see why there is only 1 "yes" in the polls....THE DEVS HIMSELF!! now...on to whats important...phone is fixed. removed files in partitions one by one and replaced (using linux..of course). good luck..case closed

My recovery doesn't touch the Download partition. The only new partition I added was to the micro sd card for Ext4. The source is up. But I will continue to work on the recovery until team win takes over. Bigbiff sent me an email to correctly name the source code device tree so I know that they are doing something.
 
ok. lets satart over here. somehow my feedback is being taken "personally" or...maybe, as im out of a phone..and im blaming you. please understand....the relationship between a tester and a dev is COMMUNICATION. im not boasting as to what i can do with this phone...what i can do is VERY limited. however..there is NO such thing as a HARDBRICK/PAPERWEIGHT if i have the KDZ files. as i metioned in my post, i heve read/studied twrp for this phone A LONG TIME before flashing ANYTHING!
i list the steps i take to install your recovery so YOU have a VALID starting point.
i NEVER said anything to you regarding the steps to root the phone...i read your post how you did it..i said i COULD NOT do it that way...(and when i asked you how you did it, files, methods etc) i got NO reply. so i did it another with wolfdroids script.
clearly your recovery DOES touch the download partition in SOME way, as you ATTEMPTED to implement a download button in the recovery itself. to "link" a button in the recovery to reboot into download mode, your ARE linking to the partion.
YOU do not have to touch the download partion, or any, to have negative effect on HOW the partions are read.
my results (phone unable to read partions correctly) is not condescending, or or a personal attack in any way. I AM A TESTER, sir, and reporting to you EVERY circumstance in the situation being developed is CRUCIAL in your success. i wish you the very best of luck, and look forward to testing again, once this problem has been acknowleged.
 
I am working with someone to bring a custom Rom to this device but I no longer have the Phone. I always test the latest version before releasing it. So if anyone wants to take over they can.
 
i put the word out. by the way...I AM NOW using your V5OCT1ST recovery. i never got to try it..lol. so far...just dandy. im tesing the backup/restore now...
 
You will like this one. I took download button out because like in the video it's not necessary. Sdext should mount probably but wait until you see link2sd toast notification that it has been granted access. Like I said I am working with someone to bring a custom Rom to the device.
 
Is this recovery good on T-Mobile K7 or is it Metro pcs only? Did "t-mob" page searches of the thread & didn't get any hits. Assuming not, but ya never know...
I can see you've done a huge amount of work. Whether I can use it or not, I appreciate what you've done :D

I am not 100% sure but I think it will work. just backup stock recovery before flash .
