[Q] recovery problem - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi everybody
well i have a problem with the recovery of mt3gs the message is this when i tried to put the option Apply sdcard:update.zip
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
--Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
installation aborted
can you help me? please!

that means the stock recovery is rejecting the update.zip. Take the recovery image that I'm about to give you, then place it in the same directory as your fastboot. After this, boot into fastboot by either holding volume down + power or the back button + power, then press the power button again. Then go to your computer, and on the terminal or command prompt, type cd [the directory where fastboot is] and type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img! If it successfully flashes the recovery(which it should) then your recovery will be Clockworkmod.

help! deleted recovery.img

just wondering if anyone can help me out here, i was trying to flash the cyanogen hero recovery image to my phone using fastboot so i erased my stock recovery image, only to get the message "remote: signature verify fail" so im now stuck with no recovery image and dont know how to get it back, can anyone help me out please?
ok so i managed to mount my system as read write in fastboot and put the recovery.img from the wwe version in to system which has gave me my recovery back but when i boot it just stays on the hero screen and says fastboot usb at the top if i have it plugged into my pc. i have no idea how to reset the original files and i didnt back up, can anyone help me pleas?
Well after trying for hours to fix this, I give up. I can't install the system.img from wwe rom posted on here it says verify failed or something similar so I stupidly tried to flash the magic 32a heroski port hoping it would work and still nothing. Is there anyway someone could post there nandroid backup file and help me flash it to see if that works? Or should I just give up. I'm really stuck now lol
you can't flash anything from fastboot because the images need to be signed.
what version of hero do you have?
if you have the wwe hero(it's not needed ) i can send you (later, now i'm at work) my nandroid backup (system,boot,recovery, splash...) so you can restore them
I have the orange hero. I used fastboot to load cyanogens recovery image then flashed the heroski rom hoping it might work lol so I ended up using fastboot to erase system. Question is do you think your nandroid backup would work? I sure hope so it would be a great help!!! Thanks.
i have the unlocked wwe hero. i'm uploading now the system, boot and recovery to rapidshare . it'll be up in a couple of minutes. if you find a orange hero backup you can restore in the same way ;-)
restoring hero wwe
download the backup from(it's better if you verify the md5):
http://rapidshare.com/files/263636068/bkp.rar.html
MD5: BEAE167BCBB1FF6D3D2701FB64604203
Put the contents on sdcard (i'm assuming that you put the images in a folder named bkp on the sdcard)
so:
download the recovery from here: http://rapidshare.com/files/262621147/cm-hero-recovery.img.zip and extract it
put your phone in fastboot mode (with the phone off, press the back key then turn the phone on).
then:
boot with the downloaded recovery
Code:
fastboot boot cm-hero-recovery.img
0) mount the partitions
Code:
adb shell mount /system
adb shell mount /sdcard
1) do a wipe
select the wipe option from the recovery menu
2) restore boot
Code:
adb shell flash_image boot /sdcard/bkp/boot.img
3) restore recovery
Code:
adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/bkp/recovery.img
4)restore system
Code:
adb shell
cd /system
rm -rf * (ignore the errors)
unyaffs /sdcard/bkp/system.img
5) unmount the partitions
Code:
umount /system
6) reboot
Code:
reboot
hope it helps
Ok thanks. Have to wait 4 hours to try it as I'm in work lol, what is an md5 for, just out of curiosity?
A MD5sum is a checksum to verifiy that your downloaded file isn't corrupt.

in this case, you don't have to restore boot or recovery because they are the same as the images posted here.
proceed with system
Ok thanks, now it's goog !

Still cant get payload to push

ok so i still cant get the payload to push i have tried every method. I have no problem getting adb into recovery that is easy but when i go to push the payload update i get signature verification failed, installation aborted and i have done the 1.bat command and still nothing here are my steps.
1.After i get the error message no such directory i stop the loop command, then i hit the apply sd card update and it fails of course then i enter in these commands.
adb push busybox /sdcard/busybox
adb push ota.zip /sdcard/update.zip
adb push su /sdcard/su
adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
Then i volume down to the apply sd card update.zip hit power and then about a half second later i enter in this command.
\/
adb push payload-update.zip /sdcard/update.zip
and then i get this
--install from sdcard--
finding update package
opening update pacakge
verifying update package
E:signature verifacation failed
installation aborted
If anyone could give me some advice i would greatly appreciate it.
Are you sure you copied the correct files (ie. busybox,su, superuser,update) to sdk/tools/ ? And assuming you did, you really do not have to wait and count to press enter after pressing "apply update" on the phone. Just press enter on that command right when you see the green status bar on the phone.
Good luck!
Thank you i stopped trying to time the command and the hitting power worked first time getting ready to flash a rom now.

the only thing i can do is using the fastboot when i connect it to the computer it recognized it. but i dont what to do.. can somenvody help me step by step please... thanks in advance..
edit: can you clarify if you're CLOCKWORK recovery, or STOCK recovery when you see those errors? If the former, just jump to the last step of my walk-through and proceed.
You're in good shape, and we should be able to get you sorted with relative ease.
Assuming you have ADB setup, if not, get it setup and working before following these steps.
- Download fastboot from here: http://developer.htc.com/adp.html#s2
- Place the fastboot.exe file in your adb tools directory (typically C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools)
- Download this file: http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.1.0-vision.img
- Rename it "recovery.img"
- Place it in your adb tools folder (C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools)
- Connect your phone via USB to your computer, and boot into the bootloader, you should now be in fastboot mode (phone should say "FASTBOOT USB" in red)
- Open a command prompt and switch to your adb tools directory where you moved "fastboot.exe" and "recovery.img".
- Run the following command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (leave the quotes out)
- Once it's complete, you should be able to boot into recovery (try it a few times if it hangs on the white HTC splash), mount USB, copy a ROM over and install it.
Let me know if you have any problems/questions.
hey thanks for your reply but i fixed it already thank to nipqer.. i forgot to mention it here. but thnks anyways..

Fixed my phone :)

I had errors in my previous recovery which showed:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount /sdcard
Also errors such as error formatting system and mounting system.
So i flashed a new recovery, amon_ra's recovery, this one included the option to move the recovery log to sd. Then re-installed my rom.
Here's how i did it.
Plugged in the phone, booted to fastboot.
I opened the cmd and typed:
cd C:\Users\Francis\Documents\ANDROID files\Android SDK Windows\tools
This is the path that contains the fastboot.exe. I then typed fastboot.exe.
Downloaded recovery-RA-desire-v2.0.0.img and cut n pasted into the tools folder.
I typed: fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
I then typed fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-desire-v2.0.0.img
The recovery file was obtained from this link: http://files.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=amon_ra/RECOVERY/&file=recovery-RA-desire-v2.0.0.img
I then went into bootloader, then recovery and re-installed my rom.
If you use an EXT, you would be better off with 2.0.1
It is common problem with PVT4 and Clockwork recovery 2.5.0.7 which is installed during rooting with Unrevoked
I used AmonRa 2.0.1 but recently switched to 4EXTRecovery.
OP: Are you seriously that stupid you had to create third thread for it?!

How to remove data encryption on emui 9.1 stock roms and root

Im Using C432 .. Rom 9.1.0.147 Newest Stock Update Here In Denmark
First Unlock Bootloader : flash oem unlock ********code******
Enter Bootloader Again, Now Flash Modded_recovery_ramdisk : fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk r.ram.mod.img
And Flash Erecovery_ramdisk with TWRP.img From kilroystyx
Do NOT Remove USB Cable But Hold Power Untill You See Black Screen
Then Quickly Pres And Hold VOL + Untill You Read "Your Device Is Booting Now..."
Now You Should See/Enter Your TWRP Recovery , Now Wipe And Format Data, Then Reboot Recovery "Force Close With Power" .. Again When You See Black Screen Then Quickly Pres And Hold VOL + Untill You Read "Your Device Is Booting Now..."
And You Should ReEnter TWRP Again.. now Mount Vendor then Start Terminal In Recovery under advanced
In Terminal Type :
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p55
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p37
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p53
"patition name/table layout of editable partitions from recovery"
cust = mmcblk0p53
vendor = mmcblk0p55
modem_fw = mmcblk0p37
erecovery_ramdisk = mmcblk0p29
recovery_ramdisk = mmvblk0p33
Now Use File Manager In Recovery Under Advanced To Copy fstab.modem , fstab.hi6250 And recovery.fstab From /vendor/etc/ to /sdcard/ And from /sdcard/ Over To a PC .. Edit fstab.* With Notepad++ One By One Remove The Word "verify" including the comma and replace ALL "ro" with "rw" Also Remove The Words With fileencryption***************** Including The Comma ...
Do This in ALL 3 Files When Done Copy Back The 3 Files To Sdcard And Use File Manager To Move The Edited Files Back To /vendor/etc/ Overwriting The Old Files Now Do The Same With The 2 Files In The Root /fstab.hi6250.data And /fstab.hi6250
THEN FROM RECOVERY Select REBOOT And RECOVERY .... AND YOUR DONE .. You Should Now Automaticly Enter The Rom..
YOU ARE NOW MAGISK ROOTED "Use 19.3 Stable Settings In Magisk Only" Dont Directly Update Magisk ! Clear Repo!
From Now On To Enter The TWRP You Need To Put The USB Cable In The Phone And Hold VOL- And Power To Enter Bootloader From Here Force Power Off " Hold Power Untill Black Screen Then Quickly Hold VOL+ Alone Untill You Read "Your Device Is Booting Now..." Only Way To Enter TWRP Using "ERECOVERY_RAMDISK" Partition.. And Always Use Reboot Then Recovery to Enter Rom From TWRP .. If Not You Need To Reflash recovery_ramdisk with r.ram.mod.img
Now You Can Backup Data And Restore Data With Out Fork Errors We Should Also Be Able To Both Backup/Restore Cust , Modem_fw And Vendor. But We Only Need Data, System , Erecovery_ramdisk And Recovery_ramdisk To Get A Good Complete Backup.

I recomend following or reading this post i wrote .. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80044263&postcount=9 .. about the same stuff
Welp, i managed to flash twrp to Erecocery, it's pretty easy
1 download twrp and patched recovery_ramdisk (i strongly recomend to extract the one from update.app with huawei firmware finder and huawei firmware extractor and pacth it with magisk manager)
2 copy twrp.img into your minimal adb folder and copy twrp and patched recovery_ramdisk into your micro sd
3 connect p20 lite (in fastboot Mode) to pc and open minimal adb and fastboot (cmd here) and flash twrp (fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img)
3 Disconect and force power off, turn p20 lite and boot into recovery (power off and vol +) it Will boot into twrp
4 go to install and go to external storage, also select "Install image"
5 select your twrp.img, it will you ask where to Install, select "Erecocery_ramdisk" and Install it
6 repeat step 4 and now select your patched recovery_ramdisk.img and Install it on "recovery_ramdisk"
7 ???
8 profit
And now i'm stuck with the fstabs, i do all the steps on first post but when i try to move the modified ones shows an error, so what now?

When you enter "ls -l /dev/block/mmcblk*" in the terminal, what does it say then?
I want to transfer this procedure to Honor 7X. Can someone please send output from the following commands (first to get list of names of partitions, second to get list of mounted filesystems) executed via adb shell on the P20 lite:
ls -l /dev/block/by-name
mount
Thanks a lot in advance.

the partitons change from rom build to rom build and is useless. ..
i moved on to new device sry ..
but this is the partitions i was playing with :
"patition name/table layout of editable partitions from recovery"
cust = mmcblk0p53
vendor = mmcblk0p55
modem_fw = mmcblk0p37
erecovery_ramdisk = mmcblk0p29
recovery_ramdisk = mmvblk0p33
im guessing this answers your question

Does anyone have a working link to the r.ram.mod.img file?
EDIT: Nevermind... figured out I had to extract it from my firmware.
Guys tell me how to decrypt huawei p20 lite, i.e. turn off encryption.
and this parameter is not quite clear what it is and how - disable verity.
The device - the data folder is already encrypted, of the more comprehensible methods are of interest to me these two
this 1) "https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...tion-on-emui-9-1-stock-roms-and-root.3953946/"
and this 2)
"https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-mediapad-t3-10-ags-w0.3843728/#post-78558329 "
but the first method does not show what to do after you mount it
In Terminal Type :
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p55
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p37
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p53
"name/table layout of editable partitions from recovery"
cust = mmcblk0p53
vendor = mmcblk0p55
modem_fw = mmcblk0p37
erecovery_ramdisk = mmcblk0p29
recovery_ramdisk = mmvblk0p33
i don't know if it's necessary to go through these commands, when i can copy these files, edit them and replace them back via TWRP, do i understand correctly that these commands will unlock the partition to overwrite the files inside it?
but i don't know if this method will work with emui 9.1 yet and the links to img are broken. + i'm afraid to overwrite TWRP with erecovery, because i figured out that i can't flash emui from fastboot erecovery, it is closed for him, only with TWRP and i'm not sure if i can? "+ it's not clear, replaced the files and that's it? "
the second way I stopped
I don't understand why I can't see the boot img from the extracted firmware Anne-L01 9.1.0.370(C432E7R1P7T8)
Is it locked or what? but i saw verity in FASTBOOT.img - or should i edit it to disable verity? and the question is different things recovery and boot? so i doubt in the correct execution.
and in this video i saw how to remove veirty, but what is it ?
as i understand this will not remove the forced encryption , but as i understand this will move me one step closer to the goal of disabling all verity and encryption too.
I don't understand what vbmeta is either, do I have to dig around in my target just to remove this forced encryption or is it an extra parameter, I mean vbmeta ?
